     “In the first quarter, we grew operating net income, earnings per share and
expanded operating margins but we did not achieve all of our goals in the period.
Despite a solid start and good client demand we did not close a number of software
and mainframe transactions that have moved into the second quarter.  The services
business performed as expected with strong profit growth and significant new business
in the quarter,” said Ginni Rometty, IBM chairman, president and chief executive
officer.
      “Looking ahead, in addition to closing those transactions, we expect to benefit
from investments we are making in our growth initiatives and from the actions we are
taking to improve under-performing parts of the business.  We remain confident in
this model of continuous transformation and in our ability to deliver our full-year
2013 operating earnings per share expectation of at least $16.70.”
