  PALO ALTO, CA, Nov 11 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
TIBCO Software Inc. (NASDAQ: TIBX) today announced its inclusion in
Software Magazine's Software 500 ranking of the world's largest software
and service providers, now in its 29th year. 

    TIBCO's total revenue puts it in the top 20 percent of the Software
Magazine list. For fiscal year 2010, TIBCO's total revenue was $754
million, up 21 percent over the prior year. Non-GAAP operating profit for
the year grew 36 percent to $190 million.(1)

    "The 2011 Software 500 results show that revenue growth in the software
and services industry was healthy, with total Software 500 revenue of
$541.5 billion worldwide for 2010, representing approximately 10 percent
growth from the previous year's list," says John P. Desmond, editor of
Software Magazine and Softwaremag.com. 

    "The Software 500 helps CIOs, senior IT managers, and IT staff research
and create the short list of business partners," Desmond says. "It is a
quick reference of vendor viability. And the online version, now posted
at www.softwaremag.com, is searchable by category, making it what we call
the online catalog to enterprise software."

    The Software 500 is a revenue-based ranking of the world's largest
software and services suppliers, targeting medium to large enterprises,
their IT professionals, software developers, and business managers
involved in software and services purchasing. 

    Some 27 percent of the 2011 Software 500 companies are privately held.
More than 100 companies are on the list in 2011 for the first time, a
reflection of the dynamic nature of the industry.

500. It is now available in the digital publication. 

    The ranking is based on total worldwide software and services revenue for
2010. This includes revenue from software licenses, maintenance and
support, training, and software-related services and consulting.
Suppliers are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many
have other lines of business, such as hardware. The financial information
was gathered by a survey prepared by King Content Co. and posted at
www.softwaremag.com, as well as from public documents.
