1.       Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of MICROS Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005.

Certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations.  The information reflects all normal and recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position of the Company and its results of operations for the interim periods set forth herein.  The results for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future periods.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.  Auction rate securities totaling $17.0 million and $8.0 million that were previously classified as cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively, are now classified as short term investments.  As a result of this change, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2004 reflects the gross purchases and sales of auction rate securities as investing activities rather than as a component of cash and cash equivalents.  This change in classification resulted in a $9.0 million increase in net cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2004.

All references to shares of common stock, share prices, per share amounts and stock plans for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2004 have been retroactively restated for the January 2005 two-for-one stock split.

2.       Share-based compensation

The Company has incentive and non-qualified stock options outstanding that were granted to directors, officers, and other employees pursuant to authorization by the Board of Directors.  Currently, options are not granted to directors who are not employees of or consultants to the Company.  The exercise price of all options equals the market value on the date of the grant.  Substantially all of the options granted are exercisable pursuant to a three-year vesting schedule whereby one-third of the options vest upon the first anniversary of the grant, the second third of the options vest upon the second anniversary of the grant, and the final third of the options vest upon the third anniversary of the grant.  All outstanding options expire ten years from the date of grant.  The Company has authorized approximately 15.8 million shares for awards of options, of which approximately 1.9
million shares are available for future grants as of December 31, 2005.

Three months and six months ended December 31, 2005:

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and superseding Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.  This statement became effective July 1, 2005 for the Company and requires the Company to expense the fair value of grants made under the stock option program over the vesting period of each individual option agreement.  The Company adopted the Modified Prospective Application transition method, which does not result in restatement of previously issued financial statements.  Awards that are granted after this date were measured and non-cash compensation expenses were recognized in
the consolidated statements of operations in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R).  In addition, non-vested awards that were granted before the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) also result in recognition of non-cash compensation expense.  The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense ratably over the vesting period of options, adjusted for forfeiture rate.

For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, the total income tax benefits recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for share-based compensations
recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)were approximately $0.6 million and approximately $1.2 million, respectively.  No compensation costs were capitalized.

The Company values stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that are fully transferable and have no vesting restrictions.  In determining the expected term, the Company separates groups of employees that have historically exhibited similar behavior with regard to option exercises and post-vesting cancellations.  The option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, such as those listed below.  The volatility rates are based on historical stock prices. The expected life of options granted are based on historical data, which, as of December 31, 2005 is a partial option life cycle, adjusted for the remaining option life cycle by assuming ratable exercise of any unexercised vested options over the remaining term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant.  The total expenses to be recorded in future periods will depend on several variables, including the number of share-based awards that vest, pre-vesting cancellations, and the fair value of those vested awards.

The fair values of options granted were estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

MICROS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2005 was $22.08.  The total intrinsic value, the difference between the exercise price and the market price on the date of exercise, of options exercised during the six months ended December 31, 2005, was approximately $23.3 million.

The following is a summary of the status of, and changes in, non-vested shares:

As of December 31, 2005, there were approximately $21.3 million in share-based compensation costs related to non-vested awards not yet recognized in the Companys consolidated statements of operations.  This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.  The total fair value of shares vested during the six months ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $7.8 million.

Cash received from options exercised during the six months ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $10.8 million.

Three months and six months ended December 31, 2004:

For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2004, the Company applied the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for the stock option awards.  The Company had not recognized any related compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations because the fair value of the stock underlying the options granted did not exceed the exercise price of the options on the date of grant.  If compensation expense had been determined based on the weighted-average estimate of the fair value of each option granted consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, the Companys net income would have been reduced to pro forma amounts as follows:

MICROS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005

The Company valued stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that are fully transferable and have no vesting restrictions.  The option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, such as those listed below.

The fair values of options granted were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

|                        |  | Three   Months Ended    December 31, 2004 |             | Six Months   Ended    December 31, 2004 | 
|----------------------- |  | ----------------------------------------- | ----------- | --------------------------------------- | 
|                        |  |                                           |             |                                         | 
|Expected volatility     |  |                                           | 46          | %                                       | 
|Expected life           |  |                                           | 6.0   years |                                         | 
|Expected dividend yield |  |                                           | 0           | %                                       | 
|Risk-free interest rate |  |                                           | 3.8         | %                                       | 

The weighted-average fair values of each option granted during the three months and six months ended December 31, 2004 were $16.26 and $16.14, respectively.

3.       Inventory:

The components of inventory are as follows:

|(in thousands)  |  | December   31,    2005 |        | June 30,    2005 |  
|--------------- |  | ---------------------- | ------ | ---------------- | -
|                |  |                        |        |                  |  
|Raw materials   |  | $                      | 8,615  |                  | $
|Work-in-process |  |                        | 77     |                  |  
|Finished goods  |  |                        | 36,851 |                  |  
|                |  |                        |        |                  |  
|                |  | $                      | 45,543 |                  | $
|                |  |                        |        |                  |  

The Company maintains a reserve for obsolescence for inventory of approximately $8.9 million at December 31, 2005 compared to approximately $7.4 million at June 30, 2005.  The Company reserved approximately $2.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2005, of which approximately $0.7 million was related to older products. The increase in reserve was primarly offset by foreign currency translation adjustments of approximately $0.6 million.

4.       Capitalized Software Costs

The Company wrote off approximately $1.3 million in capitalized software costs during the three months ended December 31, 2005 related to a product for which no future revenues was projected.

5.       Line of credit

Before July 29, 2005, the Company maintained two credit agreements (the Former Credit Agreements) that, in the aggregate, offered a $65.0 million multi-currency committed line of credit, which expired on July 31, 2005.  The lenders (the Lenders) under the Former Credit Agreements were Bank of America, N.A., Wachovia Bank, N.A., and US Bank.  The Former Credit Agreements were secured by all inventory and receivables located in the United States and the stock of certain of the Companys subsidiaries.

The interest rate under the Former Credit Agreements for U.S. dollar advances was at the Bank of America prime rate, plus an additional 25 to 150 basis points, depending upon the Companys consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  The interest rate for foreign currency advances was at the LIBOR rate for the applicable denominated currency, plus an additional 150 to 250 basis points, depending upon the Companys consolidated EBITDA for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  The Former Credit Agreements required that the Company pay insignificant commitment fees on the unused portion of the line of credit to the Lenders.  In addition, the Former Credit Agreements contained certain financial covenants and restrictions on the Companys ability to assume
additional debt and pay cash dividends.

MICROS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005

Effective July 29, 2005, the Company (and its subsidiaries) entered into two new credit agreements (the New Credit Agreements) that, in the aggregate, offer a four-year $65.0 million multi-currency committed line of credit, expiring on July 31, 2009.  The Lenders under the New Credit Agreements are Bank of America, N.A., Wachovia Bank, N.A., and US Bank.  The facilities are secured by 65% of the capital stock of the Companys Ireland subsidiary and 100% of the capital stock of all other subsidiaries as well as all inventory and receivables located in the United States.

The interest rate under the New Credit Agreements is at the LIBOR rate plus 125 to 200 basis points, depending upon the Companys consolidated EBITDA for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  Under the terms of the New Credit Agreements, the Company paid certain upfront fees and arrangement fees totaling approximately $0.2 million.  Additionally, the Company is required to pay insignificant commitment fees on the unused portion of the line of credit to the Lenders.  The New Credit Agreements also contain certain financial covenants and restrictions on the Companys ability to assume additional debt, repurchase stock, sell subsidiaries, or acquire companies.  In case of an event of default, as defined in the New Credit Agreements, that is not cured within the applicable cure period (with respect to those defaults for which the New Credit Agreements provide a cure
period), the Lenders remedies include their ability to declare all outstanding loans, plus interest and other related amounts owed, to be immediately due and payable in full, and to pursue all rights and remedies available to them under the New Credit Agreements or under applicable law.  As of December 31, 2005, approximately $1.7 million is outstanding on the lines of credit and had approximately $63.3 million available for future borrowings.

6.       Recent accounting standards

FASB Staff Position No. 123(R)-3

In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 123(R)-3 (FSP FAS 123(R)-3), Transition Election to Accounting for Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards, which provides a practical transition election related to accounting for the tax effects of share-based payments awards to employees of either the transition guidance for the additional-paid-in-capital pool as prescribed in SFAS No. 123(R), or the alternative transition method as described in the FSP.  An entity that adopts SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective application may make a one-time election to adopt the transition method described in the FSP.  An entity may take up to one year from the latter of its initial adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) or the effective date of this FSP to evaluate its available transition alternative and make its one-time election.  The FSP
FAS 123(R)-3 became effective in November 2005.  At this time, the Company is evaluating the potential effects of FSP FAS 123(R)-3 on the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations and whether to elect the transition alternative available under FSP FAS 123(R)-3.

FASB Staff Position No. 143-1

In June 2005, the
FASB issued FSP No. FAS 143-1 (FSP FAS 143-1), Accounting for
Electronic Equipment Waste Obligations, which provides guidance on
accounting for electronic equipment waste obligations.  In particular, the
new guidance specifies the appropriate accounting for obligations to dispose of
historical waste  i.e., electronic waste obligations relating
to equipment put on the market before August 13, 2005, as defined in the
European Union Directive 2002/96/EC (the Directive).  Among
other things, the Directive requires entities to provide for the treatment of
electrical waste and electronic equipment and member states to adopt financing
schemes for that treatment.  Under the framework established by the
Directive, the responsibility to dispose of historical waste used by other than
private household users (the Commercial Users) rests with the
Commercial User.  The FSP FAS 143-1 does not address the accounting for the
disposal of waste related to equipment put on the market after August 13,
2005.  This guidance is effective for the first reporting period ending
after the later of June 8, 2005 or the date of passage of legislation by an EU
member state imposing the disposal obligation on a Commercial User or commercial
producer.  The adoption of FSP FAS 143-1 did not have a material effect on
the Companys consolidated financial position and results of
operation.  Additionally, the Company does not expect FSP FAS 143-1 to have
a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position and
results of operations from those European countries where the Directive has not
yet become effective.

MICROS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005

SFAS No. 154

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.  This statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle.  SFAS No. 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and requires retrospective application to prior periods consolidated financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change.  This statement also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting
principle.  This statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.  SFAS No. 154 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

American Jobs Creation Act

On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (AJCA) was signed into law by President Bush.  The AJCA broadly affects the Company in the following manner:

| |  | the phase out of the Extraterritorial Income   Exclusion Act of 2000 (ETI) over a three year period,
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | the introduction of a qualified manufacturing   deduction, and                                        
| |  | a one-time election to repatriate foreign earnings at   reduced rates.                                

| | The passage of the AJCA resulted in issuance of the following two FSP:

| |           FSP   No. 109-1, Application of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes,   for the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the   American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, was issued in the fourth quarter of   2004.  Under this FSP, the deduction   is treated as a special deduction as described in SFAS No. 109.  The potential effect of FSP No. 109-1 is   not expected to have a material effect on the Companys consolidated   financial position and results of operation.

| |           FSP   No. 109-2, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings   Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, was   also issued in the fourth quarter of 2004.    Under this FSP, an enterprise is allowed time beyond the financial   reporting period of enactment to evaluate the effect of the new tax law on   its plan for applying SFAS No. 109.    The AJCA included a tax relief provision allowing an entity a reduced   tax rate on dividends received from controlled foreign corporations if   certain conditions are satisfied.  The   Company has determined that no tax benefit will be recognized from the effect   of the new tax law on its plan for applying SFAS No. 109.

7.       Net income per share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding.  Diluted net income per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options.  A reconciliation of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding assuming dilution is as follows:

10.     Pension Benefits

On November 19, 2004, the Companys Board of Directors (with Messrs. A.L. Giannopoulos and Louis M. Brown, Jr. abstaining) authorized the establishment of a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the SERP Plan), to provide designated officers and executives of the Company with benefits upon retirement effective as of August 25, 2004.  On April 27, 2005, the Companys Board of Directors (with A.L. Giannopoulos and Louis M. Brown, Jr. abstaining as a result of their participation in this plan) amended the SERP Plan, to provide for vesting of benefits upon a participants death.  The SERP Plan is accounted for in accordance with SFAS 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions.

The Board of Directors of the Company, in its sole discretion, selects the participants in the SERP Plan.  The Board may remove participants, or modify benefit accrual levels for any participant who is not vested.  As of December 31, 2005, there were 15 participants in the SERP Plan, including one new participant added during the three months ended December 31, 2005.  Under the terms of the SERP Plan, participants who are vested (or their designated beneficiaries upon death) will receive 10 annual payments over nine years commencing 6 months after the earlier of death or retirement on or after age 62. 
Participants become vested after completing eight years of service with the Company and: (i) the participant attains age 62 (provided the person is employed by the Company on his or her 62nd birthday); or (ii) there is a change in control of the Company (which is defined in the SERP Plan to include, generally, the acquisition of 50% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, and other corporate transactions immediately after which persons who hold 50% of the outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the surviving entity did not hold common stock of the Company before the transaction); or (iii) the participant dies before attaining age 62.  However, the value of benefits under the SERP Plan is not based on years of service.The payment amount is determined based on the
participants age at retirement or death and the base salary received by the participant during the 12 months immediately preceding his or her retirement or death.  The annual payment amounts are as follows: 18% of final pay if the participant retires after his 62nd birthday but before his 63rd birthday; 21% of final pay if the participant retires after his 63rd birthday but before his 64th birthday; 24% of final pay if the participant retires after his 64th birthday but before his 65th birthday; and 30% of final pay if the participant retires after his 65th birthday.

Commencing in July 2005, the Company has funded the benefits under the plan with corporate owned life insurance policies, whose assets are subject to the claims of creditors of the Company.

Total components of net period pension cost for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 include the following:

|                                     |  | Three   Months Ended   December 31, |     | Six Months   Ended   December 31, |

For the three months ended December 31, 2005, cost of sales as a percent of revenue was unchanged at 49.9% compared to the same period last year.  Hardware cost of sales as a percent of related revenue decreased approximately 110 basis points as a result of the JTECH acquisition and, in addition, an increase in Workstation 4 sales, both of which generate hardware sales with higher margins than other hardware sales.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase in other computer hardware sales, which generate lower margins than overall hardware sales.

Software cost of sales as a percent of related revenue decreased approximately 260 basis points.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of 710 basis points from sales of our OPERA suite of products, which generate higher margins than our third party software, in addition to improvements in overall software margin contribution.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase of 450 basis points resulting from approximately $1.3 million in capitalized software write-off included in software costs of sales.  The capitalized software was written off related to a product for which  no future revenue was projected.  Service costs as a percent of related revenue increased approximately 110 basis points.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2005:

An analysis of the cost of sales is as follows:

For the six months ended December 31, 2005, cost of sales as a percent of revenue decreased to 49.3% compared to 49.9% in the same period last year.  Hardware cost of sales as a percent of related revenue decreased approximately 40 basis points as a result of the JTECH acquisition and an increase in Workstation 4 sales, both of which generate higher margins than other hardware sales.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase in provision for inventory during first quarter of 2006 resulting from additional reserve for an older product, which has been replaced with the 2010 Workstation (released in December 2005).

Software cost of sales as a percent of related revenue decreased approximately 220 basis points.  This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of 450 basis points from improved sales of our OPERA suite of products, which generate higher margins than our third party software.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase of 230 basis points resulting from approximately $1.3 million in capitalized software write-offs included in software cost of sales.  There was no change in service costs as a percent of related revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses:

Three Months Ended December 31, 2005:

SG&A expenses, as a percent of revenue, increased 40 basis points to 32.0% compared to 31.6% in the same period last year.  This increase is primarily due to the following:

| |  | 1.3% of revenue  approximately $2.2 million of   share-based compensation expense recorded as a component of SG&A in   accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) (see below for further discussion);     
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | 1.2% of revenue  due to JTECHs SG&A expenses;   and                                                                                                                                           
| |  | the above increases were substantially offset by   overall decreases in SG&A expenses as a percent of revenue primarily due   to our ability to leverage our costs with the increase in revenue.

SG&A expenses increased approximately $7.7 million or 17.1%, to approximately $52.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2005 compared to the same period last year.  The increase is primarily due to the following (illustrated below by percent of the total change):

| |  | 41% of the increase is the result of increases in   salaries and benefits, excluding annual incentive bonuses;                                                                        
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | 28% of the increase is the result of approximately   $2.2 million of share-based compensation expense
recorded   in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) as described below in more detail;
| |  | 26% of the increase is the result of including   JTECHs operations, following the acquisition of JTECH in January 2005;                                                              
| |  | the remaining increase is primarily due to an   increase in annual incentive bonuses.                                                                                                 

Six Months Ended December 31, 2005:

SG&A expenses, as a percent of revenue, increased 120 basis points to 32.8% compared to 31.6% in the same period last year.  This increase is primarily due to the following:

| |  | 1.3% of revenue  approximately $4.0 million of   share-based compensation expense recorded as a component of SG&A in   accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) (see below for further discussion);      
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | 1.3% of revenue  due to JTECHs SG&A expenses;   and                                                                                                                                            
| |  | the above increases were substantially offset by   overall decreases in SG&A expenses as a percent of revenue, primarily due   to our ability to leverage our costs with the increase in revenue.

SG&A expenses increased approximately $17.8 million or 20.8%, to approximately $103.7 million in the six months ended December 31, 2005 compared to the same period last year.  The increase is primarily due to the following (illustrated below by percent of the total change):

| |  | 37% of the increase is the result of an increase in   salaries and benefits, excluding annual incentive bonuses;                                                                  
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | 23% of the increase is the result of
approximately $4.0 million of share-based compensation expense recorded in
accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) as described below in more detail;
| |  | 23% of the increase is the result of the acquisition   of JTECH in January 2005;                                                                                                  
| |  | 12% of the increase is a result of an increase in   annual incentive bonuses, and                                                                                                 
| |  | the remaining increase is due to various items,   including overall growth of the Company.

Research and Development (R&D):

R&D expenses consist primarily of labor costs less capitalized software development costs.  Share-based compensation costs allocated to R&D [in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)] were not capitalized as software development costs during the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005.  An analysis of R&D activities is as follows:

For the three months ended December 31, 2005, R&D expenses as a percent of revenue decreased to 3.9% of revenue compared to 4.9% of revenue in the same period last year.  For the six months ended December 31, 2005, R&D expenses as a percent of revenue decreased to 4.0% of revenue compared to 5.0% of revenue in the same period last year.  The decreases are primarily due to two Datavantages capitalized software products released in June and December of 2005.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses:

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2005 increased approximately $0.1 million to approximately $2.6 million compared to the same period last year.  For the six months ended December 31, 2005, depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $0.2 million to approximately $5.1 million compared to the same period last year.

Stock Option Compensation Expenses:

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and superseding Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.  This statement became effective July 1, 2005 and required us to expense the fair value of grants made under the stock option program over the vesting period of the plans.  We adopted the Modified Prospective Application transition method, which does not result in restatement of previously issued financial statements.  Awards that were granted after this date will be measured and non-cash compensation expenses recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in accordance
with SFAS No. 123(R).  In addition, non-vested awards that were granted before the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) will also result in recognition of non-cash compensation expense.  We will recognize share-based compensation expense ratably over the vesting period of options, adjusted for the forfeiture rate.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), we recognized non-cash stock option compensation expenses of approximately $2.2 million or 1.3% of revenue, and approximately $4.1 million or 1.3% of revenue, for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively.  The share-based compensation expenses for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005 were based on the fair values of 546,500 shares and 574,500 shares of options granted during the periods, respectively, in addition to the fair value of approximately 1.5 million shares of options granted before the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) that were unvested as of the effective date.  The SG&A and R&D expenses discussed above include the following allocations of share-based compensation expense:

Income from Operations:

Income from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2005 increased approximately $3.8 million or 22.8%, to approximately $20.6 million, compared to the same period last year.  The increase is mainly due to an overall increase in sales volume, partially offset by approximately $2.2 million in non-cash share-based compensation expense recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)
during the three months ended December 31, 2005.

---



For the six months ended December 31, 2005, income from operations increased approximately $6.9 million, or 21.8%, to approximately $38.7 million, compared to the same period last year.  The increase is mainly due to an overall increase in sales volume coupled with the improvement in overall margin contribution rate.  This increase was partially offset by approximately $4.1 million in non-cash share-based compensation expense recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R)
during the six months ended December 31, 2005.

Net non-operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was approximately $0.8 million and approximately $0.9 million, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to foreign exchange loss of approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005 compared to a gain of approximately $0.5 million due to the strengthening of US dollar versus the value of the Euro for the three months ended December 31, 2004.  This decrease was substantially offset by an increase of approximately $0.6 million in interest income due to overall higher cash and cash equivalents and overall higher interest rates on investment.

For the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, net non-operating income was approximately $1.2 million and approximately $1.3 million, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to foreign exchange loss of approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005, compared to a gain of approximately $0.2 million for comparable period in 2004 due to the strengthening of US dollar versus the value of the Euro.  The total increase in non-operating expenses was substantially offset by an increase of approximately $1.1 million in interest income, due to overall higher cash and cash equivalents and overall higher interest rates on investment.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were 32.5% and 32.3%, respectively.  For the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the effective tax rates were 32.5% and 34.0%, respectively.  The decreases were a direct result of consolidating functions and activities in jurisdictions where the mix of earnings is subjected to a lower average tax rate.  Based on the currently available information, we estimate that the 2006 fiscal year tax rate will be approximately 32.5%.

Non-GAAP Disclosure (Excluding Share-based Compensation Expense):

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we are including a non-GAAP presentation of selected financial information, excluding approximately $2.2 million and approximately $4.1 million of the non-cash share-based compensation expenses recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) during the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively.  This non-GAAP presentation is provided to enhance the understanding of our historical financial performance and the comparability between periods.  We believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information, particularly during the transition period when most companies have not yet adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R).

Income from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2005, excluding share-based compensation
recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), increased approximately $6.0 million or 35.8%, to approximately $22.8 million compared to the same period last year.  The increase is mainly due to an overall increase in sales volume coupled with cost of sales and SG&A items discussed above.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.  The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following accounting policies are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenue and relate to the more significant areas involving our judgments and estimates:

| |  | Share-based compensation - In December 2004, the   FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, a revision of SFAS No.   123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and superseding APB Opinion   No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.  This statement became effective July 1, 2005, and requires us   to expense the fair value of grants made under the stock option program over   the vesting period of the plans.  We   adopted the Modified Prospective Application transition method, which does   not result in restatement of previously issued financial statements.  Awards granted after this date were   measured and non-cash compensation expense was recognized in the consolidated   statement of operations in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R).  In addition, non-vested awards that were   granted before the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) now also result in   recognition of non-cash

We have reviewed our critical accounting policies, critical accounting estimates and the related disclosures with our Audit Committee.  These policies and procedures related to the policies are described further in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005 in Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under the heading Critical Accounting Policies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Before July 29, 2005, we maintained two credit agreements (the Former Credit Agreements) that in the aggregate provided a $65.0 million multi-currency committed line of credit, which expired on July 31, 2005.  The lenders (the Lenders) under the Former Credit Agreements were Bank of America, N.A., Wachovia Bank, N.A., and US Bank.  The Former Credit Agreements were secured by all inventory and receivables located in the United States and the stock of certain of our subsidiaries.

The interest rate under the Former Credit Agreements for U.S. dollar advances was at the Bank of America prime rate, plus an additional 25 to 150 basis points, depending upon our consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  The interest rate for foreign currency advances was at the LIBOR rate for the applicable denominated currency, plus an additional 150 to 250 basis points, depending upon our consolidated EBITDA for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  The Former Credit Agreements required that we pay insignificant commitment fees on the unused portion of the line of credit to the Lenders.  In addition, the Former Credit Agreements contained certain financial covenants and restrictions on our ability to assume additional debt and pay cash dividends.

Effective July 29, 2005, we (and our subsidiaries) entered into two new credit agreements (the New Credit Agreements) that in the aggregate offer a four-year $65.0 million multi-currency committed line of credit, expiring on July 31, 2009.  The Lenders under the New Credit Agreements are Bank of America, N.A., Wachovia Bank, N.A., and US Bank.  The facilities are secured by 65% of the capital stock of our Ireland subsidiary and 100% of the capital stock of all other subsidiaries as well as all inventory and receivables located in the United States.

The interest rate under the New Credit Agreements is at the LIBOR rate plus 125 to 200 basis points, depending upon our consolidated EBITDA for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters.  Under the terms of the New Credit Agreements, we paid certain upfront fees and arrangement fees, totaling approximately $0.2 million.  Additionally, we are required to pay insignificant commitment fees on the unused portion of the line of credit to the Lenders.  The New Credit Agreements also contain certain financial covenants and restrictions on our ability to assume additional debt, repurchase stock, sell subsidiaries, or acquire companies.  In case of an event of default, as defined in the New Credit Agreements, that is not cured within the applicable cure period (with respect to those defaults for which the New Credit Agreements provide a cure period), the Lenders remedies include
their ability to declare all outstanding loans, plus interest and other related amounts owed, to be immediately due and payable in full, and to pursue all rights and remedies available to them under the New Credit Agreements or under applicable law.

We also have a credit relationship with a European bank of EUR 1.0 million (approximately $1.2 million at the December 31, 2005 exchange rate).  Under the terms of this facility, we may borrow in the form of either a line of credit or term debt.  The amount available to borrow is reduced by approximately EUR 0.2 million (approximately $0.2 million at the December 31, 2005 exchange rate) for German guarantees.  As we have significant international operations, our Euro-denominated borrowings do not represent a significant foreign exchange risk.  On an overall basis, we monitor our cash and debt positions in each currency in an effort to reduce our foreign exchange risk.

As of December 31, 2005, approximately $1.7 million was outstanding on the lines of credit, consisting of the following:

| |  | SEK (Swedish Krona) - 7.5 million (approximately   $0.9 million at the December 31, 2005 exchange rate), and
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | JPY (Japanese Yen) - 90 million (approximately $0.8   million at the December 31, 2005 exchange rate).      

As of December 31, 2005, we had approximately $64.3 million borrowing capacity under the New Credit Agreements and Euro-denominated facility.  The amount available to borrow was reduced by approximately $0.2 million for German guarantees.  The weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding balances under the lines of credit as of December 31, 2005 was 2.4%.

As discussed above, under Stock Option Compensation Expenses, in December 2004 the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R).  The statement became effective July 1, 2005, and requires the windfall tax benefits from stock option exercises to be classified as cash outflows from operating activities, with the corresponding amount also classified as cash inflows from financing activities, and also requires us to expense the fair value of grants made under the stock option program.  As a result, for the six months ended December 31, 2005, approximately $8.4 million in tax benefits from stock option exercises is classified as cash inflows from financing activities.  For the six months ended December 31, 2004, the tax benefits from stock option exercises was classified as a component of cash provided by operations.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2005 was approximately $30.1 million.  Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2004 was approximately $17.4 million.  We used approximately $8.2 million for investing activities, of which approximately $5.3 million was used to purchase property, plant, and equipment, and approximately $2.3 million was used to internally develop software. We also used approximately $7.9 million for financing activities, of which approximately $26.2 million was used to repurchase our common stock, partially offset by proceeds of approximately $10.8 million from the issuance of our common stock for stock option exercises and approximately $8.4 million in windfall tax benefits from the stock option exercises.  All cash is being retained for the operation and expansion of the
business and the repurchase of our common stock.

We anticipate that our cash flows from operations along with available lines of credit are sufficient to provide our working capital needs during the short term and long term periods.  We currently anticipate that our property, plant, and equipment expenditures for fiscal year 2006 will be approximately $2.0 million higher than in fiscal year 2005.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements (as defined in the applicable regulations) that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Factors that may affect future results

In light of current market conditions, and world political and economic uncertainty, it is difficult to determine whether we can continue to achieve revenue and profitability growth in the next year.  This is especially true since the primary industries we serve, the hospitality, travel, restaurant, and retail industries, are highly sensitive to economic, political and environmental disturbances, all of which are not only outside of our control, but also extraordinarily difficult to predict with any accuracy.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any particular level of growth is reasonable or can be achieved.  In addition, due to the competitive nature of the market, we continue to experience gross margin pressure on our products (both hardware and software) and service offerings, and we expect product and service margins to decline.  There can be no assurance that we will be
able to increase sufficiently the sales of our higher margin products, including software, to prevent future declines in our overall gross margin.  Additionally, given the fact that we conduct business in many different currencies, currency fluctuations directly affect our financial results.  As we conduct significant business in Europe, a weakening or strengthening Euro could significantly affect our financial performance.

Moreover, our quarterly financial results are dependent upon the timing and size of customer orders and the shipment of products for large orders.  Large software orders from customers may account for more than an insignificant portion of earnings in any quarter.  We expect the list of customers with whom we do the largest amount of business to vary from year to year as a result of the timing of the rollout of each customers system.  Further, if a customer delays or accelerates its delivery requirements, or if a products completion is delayed or accelerated, revenues that we may have expected in a given quarter could be deferred or accelerated into subsequent or earlier quarters, respectively.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, and may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in our quarterly operating results and other factors, such as announcements of technological developments or new products by us, customer rollouts, technological advances and new products announced by existing and new competitors, and general market conditions in the hospitality and retail industries.  In addition, conditions in the stock market in general and shares of technology companies in particular have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations, which have, at times, been unrelated to the operating performance of the companies.

Past performance is not necessarily a strong or reliable indicator of future performance.  Actual results could differ materially from past results, estimates, or projections, or forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of us.  Some of our risks and uncertainties are listed in Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors, contained in this Form 10-Q.  These are in addition to those other risks and uncertainties disclosed in our periodic press releases and SEC filings, including in the section titled Business and Investment Risks; Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2005.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company recorded foreign sales, including exports from the United States, of approximately $149.4 million and approximately $131.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, to customers located primarily in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, Asia, Latin America and Canada.

The Companys significant international business and presence expose the Company to certain market risks, such as currency fluctuation, interest rate changes, and political risks.  With respect to currency risk, the Company transacts business in different currencies through its foreign subsidiaries.  The fluctuation of currencies affects sales and profitability.  Frequently, sales and the costs associated with those sales are not denominated in the same currency.

In the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company transacted business in 27 currencies and 23 currencies, respectively.

The relative currency mix for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(1) Calculated using average exchange rates for the   period.                                                                                   
|(2) For % of Reported Revenue, average weighted   three months and six months exchange rates for all other currencies.                        
|(3) For Exchange Rates as of December 31, average   weighted December 31 exchange rates for all other currencies based on six   month revenue.

The Company has evaluated the effect of a 10% change, both upward and downward, of the Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar.  A 10% increase in the value of the Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar versus the Euro in the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, would have increased total revenues by approximately $3.2 million, or 2.0%, and approximately $6.3 million, or 2.0%, respectively.  A 10% decline in the value of the Euro in relation to the U.S. dollar in the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, would have reduced total revenues by approximately $3.2 million, or 2.0%, and approximately $6.3 million, or 2.0%, respectively.  This sensitivity analysis does not consider the effect of exchange rate changes on either cost of sales, operating expenses, or income taxes, and accordingly, is not necessarily an indicator of the effect of potential exchange rate changes
on the Companys net income.

The Company is also subject to interest rate fluctuations in foreign countries to the extent that the Company elects to borrow in the local foreign currency.  In the past, this has not been an issue of concern as the Company has the capacity to elect to borrow in other currencies with more favorable interest rates.  While the Company has not invested in financial instruments designed to protect against interest rate fluctuations, the Company will continue to evaluate the need to do so in the future.

The Company had a 3.0 million South African Rand forward contract outstanding as of December 31, 2005 to hedge the South African Rand note receivable that is recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.  Also, the Companys committed lines of credit bear interest at a floating rate, which exposes the Company to interest rate risks.  The Company manages its exposure to this risk by minimizing, to the extent feasible, overall borrowing and monitoring available financing alternatives.

The Companys interest rate risk has not changed materially from June 30, 2005, and the Company does not foresee any significant changes in exposure or in how it manages this exposure in the near future. The Company uses borrowings under the lines of credit, which expire in July 2009, for general corporate purposes.  The Companys lines of credit bear interest at LIBOR plus 125 to 200 basis points, depending on the Companys consolidated financial performance.  At December 31, 2005, the Company had total borrowings of approximately $1.7 million, and had not entered into any instruments to hedge the resulting exposure to interest-rate risk.  Management believes that the fair value of the debt equals its carrying value at December 31, 2005. The Companys exposure to fluctuations in interest rates will increase or decrease in the future with increases or decreases in the
outstanding amount under the line of credit.

To minimize the Companys exposure to credit risk associated with financial instruments, the Company places its temporary cash investments with high-credit-quality institutions.

Finally, the Company is subject to political risk, including as a result of instability in the Middle East and the worldwide threat of terrorism, and especially in developing countries with uncertain or unstable political structures or regimes.  Contributing to this risk factor is the adverse effect that political instability has on the travel and tourism industries. The Company is also subject to the effects of, and changes in, laws and regulations, and other activities of governments, agencies and similar regulatory organizations.  To be able to offer commercially viable and competitive products, the Company must also comply with the rules and regulations of the credit card associations, including their security and data protection rules.  As these guidelines are subject to change, the Company could and most likely will have ongoing costs associated with modifying products to remain
compliant with these rules.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act).  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision of the Companys management, including A.L. Giannopoulos, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Gary C. Kaufman, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.  The Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), such as this quarterly report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SECs rules and forms.  The Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that the information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company does not expect that its Disclosure Controls and Procedures will prevent all error and all fraud.  Despite its level of sophistication, detail and thoroughness, a disclosure system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are satisfied.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting may prevent or detect all misstatements or instances of fraud, if any.  Also, any evaluation of effectiveness as to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company has evaluated and will continue periodically to evaluate its Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Based on its most recent evaluations, Messrs. Giannopoulos and Kaufman (the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures in place at the end of the quarter are effective at a reasonable assurance level discussed above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-l5(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

MICROS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Form 10-Q For the Three months and Six months ended December 31, 2005

Part II - Other Information

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings

The Company is and has been involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business.  The Company is of the opinion, based upon information available as of February 9, 2006, and the advice of counsel concerning pertinent legal matters, that any resulting liability should not have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations or financial position.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

Some of our risks and uncertainties are listed below.  These are in addition to those other risks and uncertainties disclosed in our periodic press releases and SEC filings, including in the section titled Business and Investment Risks; Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2005.

| | Weakness in the hospitality and tourism industries   as a result of the ever-present threat of terrorist attacks and the uncertain   political situation in the Middle East and parts of Asia;

| | Environmental and health disasters, including for   example, the tsunami disaster in Asia, and Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and   Wilma.  There is also the widespread   coverage of certain diseases and viruses, including for example, the avian   flu, the fear of which suppresses travel.    Environmental and health crises have a material and adverse effect on   our business, as not only is there a material reduction in tourism for the   pendency of the crises, but there is a mid-term adverse effect on the buying   patterns of our customers located in the affected areas.  Environmental disasters can also directly   adversely affect MICROSs operations in the affected areas; for example,   Hurricane Wilma caused some disruption to: (i) JTECH, whose main office is in   Boca Raton, Florida; (ii) MICROSs regional sales and service office in   Deerfield Beach, Florida; and (iii) MICROSs hotel software development   office in Naples,

Finally, there are ongoing legal risks to which we are subject, some of which are difficult to predict, expect or assess.  Two such legal risks are as follows:

| | 1.  Alleged Patent Infringement:  On occasion, we will receive unsolicited   letters from entities offering a license to patents; some of these letters   will suggest or assert that we are or may be infringing the patent.  In those instances, we will assess the   validity of the claims and the purported patent, and determine whether a   license is appropriate or necessary.    If we conclude that a license is not necessary, there is a risk that   we could be subject to legal action.    Currently, there is no such pending legal action.  Additionally, we face the risk of indirect   liability as a result of infringement claims brought against our   customers.  For example, hundreds of   merchants throughout the country, some of which license software products   from MICROS and Datavantage, recently have received patent licensing letters   from an alleged patent holder in connection with credit card transaction
processes.  The alleged patent holder   has pursued litigation against several of these merchants, one of which, to   our knowledge, is a customer of ours.    While we strongly believe that our technology does not infringe the   purported patents, and that there may be other defenses available to those   claims, there can be no guarantees that we will not become involved in these   or other infringement claim matters, and we could as a result incur both   legal expenses and damages.

| | 2.  Credit Card Compliance.  Credit card issuers have promulgated   credit card security guidelines as part of their ongoing effort to battle   identity theft and credit card fraud.    We continue to work with credit card issuers to assure that our products   comply with these rules.  There can be   no assurances, however, that our products are invulnerable to unauthorized   access or hacking.  Additionally,   there can be no guarantee that our customers will implement all of the credit   card security features that we introduce, or the procedures required by the   credit card issuers, or that our customer maintains appropriate levels of   firewall protection and other security measures.  When there is unauthorized access to credit card data that   results in financial loss, there is the potential that parties could seek   damages from us.  Currently, there is   no litigation in which damages have been sought from us in
connection with   credit card fraud.
