During the fourth quarter, EMC expanded gross and operating margins on a sequential basis, generated operating cash flow of $1.0 billion and achieved record quarterly free cash flow of $793 million. EMC completed the fourth quarter with $9.4 billion in cash and investments.

For the full year 2009, EMC achieved total consolidated revenue of $14.0 billion. GAAP net income attributable to EMC for 2009 was $1.1 billion or $0.55 per diluted share.

For 2009, EMC's operating cash flow was $3.3 billion and free cash flow was $2.6 billion, an increase of 2% year over year.

Joe Tucci, EMC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Aggressive investment in core technology and strategic partnerships during the downturn, combined with heightened operational discipline, leaves EMC stronger than ever financially and intensely focused on our customers. We are well positioned to lead the industry's newest and potentially largest wave of IT, which we and others refer to as cloud computing. As we execute on our vision for where the industry is heading, EMC's primary focus is on helping customers safely build out their next-generation, fully virtualized data centers and lead them along the journey to private cloud computing, which offers the promise of a dramatically more efficient and effective model for delivering IT as a service."

David Goulden, EMC Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said, "Emerging from the worst global recession in company history, EMC is in the best financial and operational shape ever. We refined our financial model to a new level of efficiency and cost discipline, while continuing to invest in strategic technologies and high-growth markets. We rolled out new and more-advanced solutions and services with the best quality in our history and gained market share. With this positive momentum, EMC stands well positioned to continue to gain share in key markets and drive even greater profitability in 2010."

2009 Highlights

Full-year 2009 consolidated revenue was $14.0 billion. Revenue from EMC's Information Infrastructure business reached $12.0 billion and VMware contributed revenue of $2.0 billion. Throughout the year, EMC executed on numerous strategic initiatives that collectively helped strengthen the company's market leadership and advance its competitive lead, including:

    --  Sustained aggressive investment in research and development, totaling
        12% of annual consolidated 2009 revenue, resulted in innovation across
        all business units.  For example, EMC introduced an entirely new
        approach to high-end data storage with the EMC Virtual Matrix
        Architecture and EMC Symmetrix V-Max storage systems, unprecedented
        automation capabilities across all primary EMC storage platforms with
        the new EMC fully automated storage tiering (FAST) technology, and more
        than 30 new EMC services and solutions to drive the acceleration of
        private cloud computing.
    --  Use of financial strength to make strategic acquisitions, including
        deduplication storage solutions leader Data Domain, and increase
        investment levels in higher-growth markets and geographies.
    --  Tighter alignment with strategic partners, demonstrated by the Virtual
        Computing Environment coalition formed by EMC and Cisco with VMware, the
        extension of EMC's strategic alliance with Microsoft, as well as
        enhanced technology integration and expanded solutions and services
        support with major industry players such as Cisco, VMware, Microsoft,
        Dell and others.
    --  Further movement and penetration down market, including a wave of new
        consumer storage technologies and services from Iomega and Mozy.

Business Outlook

The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially. These statements do not give effect to the potential impact of mergers, acquisitions, divestitures or business combinations that may be announced or closed after the date hereof. These statements supersede all prior statements regarding 2010 financial results set forth in prior EMC news releases.

All dollar amounts and percentages set forth below should be considered to be approximations.

    --  Consolidated EMC revenues are expected to be $16.0 billion for 2010.
    --  2010 GAAP research and development ("R&D") expense and non-GAAP R&D
        expense are each expected to increase 20% over 2009.  Excluded from the
        increase in non-GAAP R&D expense is stock-based compensation expense of
        $42 million and intangible asset amortization of $8 million.
    --  Transition costs to a more efficient cost structure are expected to be
        $50 million in 2010.
    --  GAAP operating income is expected to be 13% of revenues for 2010 and
        non-GAAP operating income is expected to be 20% of revenues for 2010. 
        Excluded from non-GAAP operating income are restructuring and
        acquisition-related charges, stock-based compensation expense and
        intangible asset amortization, which account for less than 1%, 5% and 2%
        of revenues, respectively.
    --  Total non-operating expense, which includes investment income, interest
        expense and other expense, is expected to be $90 million in 2010.

        for 2010.
    --  Consolidated non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, excluding the impact
        of restructuring and acquisition-related charges, stock-based
        compensation expense and intangible asset amortization are expected to
        be $1.12 for 2010.
    --  Consolidated restructuring and acquisition-related charges, stock-based
        compensation expense and intangible asset amortization are expected to

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains "forward-looking statements" as defined under the Federal Securities Laws. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risk factors, including but not limited to: (i) adverse changes in general economic or market conditions; (ii) delays or reductions in information technology spending; (iii) our ability to protect our proprietary technology; (iv) risks associated with managing the growth of our business, including risks associated with acquisitions and investments and the challenges and costs of integration, restructuring and achieving anticipated synergies; (v) fluctuations in VMware, Inc.'s operating results and risks associated with trading of VMware stock; (vi) competitive factors, including but not limited to pricing pressures and new product introductions; (vii) the relative and varying rates of product price and component cost declines and the volume and mixture of product and services revenues; (viii) component and product quality and availability; (ix) the transition to new products, the uncertainty of customer acceptance of new product offerings and rapid technological and market change; (x) insufficient, excess or obsolete inventory; (xi) war or acts of terrorism; (xii) the ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees; (xiii) fluctuating currency exchange rates; (xiv) litigation that we may be involved in; and (xv) other one-time events and other important factors disclosed previously and from time to time in EMC's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release, the accompanying schedules and the additional content that is available on EMC's website contain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures, which are used as measures of EMC's performance or liquidity, should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, measures of EMC's financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. EMC's non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently from time to time and may be defined differently than similar terms used by other companies, and accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how EMC defines its non-GAAP financial measures in this release.

Where specified in the accompanying schedules for various periods entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP," certain items noted on each such specific schedule (including, where noted, amounts relating to gains on Data Domain and SpringSource common stock, restructuring and acquisition-related charges, special income tax charge, stock-based compensation expense, intangible asset amortization, IPR&D charge, special income tax benefit and restructuring charge) are excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures.

EMC's management uses the non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying schedules to gain an understanding of EMC's comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts) and future prospects and excludes the above-listed items from its internal financial statements for purposes of its internal budgets and each reporting segment's financial goals. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by EMC's management in their financial and operating decision-making because management believes they reflect EMC's ongoing business in a manner that allows meaningful period-to-period comparisons. EMC's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others (a) in understanding and evaluating EMC's current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose, and (b) in comparing in a consistent manner the Company's current financial results with the Company's past financial results.

This release also includes disclosures regarding free cash flow which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and capitalized software development costs. EMC uses free cash flow, among other measures, to evaluate the ability of its operations to generate cash that is available for purposes other than capital expenditures and capitalized software development costs. Management believes that information regarding free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to make strategic acquisitions and investments, repurchase shares, service debt and fund ongoing operations. As free cash flow is not a measure of liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP, free cash flow should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the analysis provided in the statement of cash flows.

Certain items in the accompanying schedules refer to growth rates at constant currency or adjusting for currency so that business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of EMC's business performance. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than US dollars are converted into US dollars at the exchange rate applied in each month of the prior year quarter. Constant currency includes the impacts from EMC's hedging program.

All of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures have limitations. Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the items noted above do not include all items of income and expense that affect EMC's operations. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and do not reflect any benefit that such items may confer on EMC. Management compensates for these limitations by also considering EMC's financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP.
