approximately 10 million shares remain available for repurchase, expires on September 30, 2005.
During fiscal 2004, initiatives to broaden the markets we serve and accelerate our growth began to pay off in substantial revenue to PSC, stated Joseph Alsop, co-founder and chief executive officer of PSC. Our newer companies, DataDirect, ObjectStore and Sonic Software, now account for 30 percent of our software license revenue. We expect total revenue from these newer companies to continue to grow at double-digit rates in fiscal 2005. At the same time, revenue from our OpenEdge product line continues to grow, even after factoring in the impact of favorable foreign exchange rates. The latest release of the OpenEdge platform, OpenEdge 10, is being well received and adopted by Progress customers and Application Partners (APs).
