A positive pre-announcement from HRBC:biz.yahoo.com Thursday June 10, 4:30 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Harbinger Corporation Harbinger Announces Continued Strong Growth in Core Products and Services for 2Q99 ATLANTA, June 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Harbinger Corporation (Nasdaq: HRBC- news), a worldwide supplier of Electronic Commerce software, services and solutions, announced today in a letter to shareholders posted on the Company's Web site that revenue growth from core products and services continues to grow in the current quarter (2Q99) and is expected to exceed consensus Wall Street expectations. Earnings are also expected to meet or exceed consensus Wall Street expectations for 2Q99. More information regarding this announcement can be found in the Investor Relations section of the Company's Web site at www.harbinger.com . ''The strong growth in core products and services that we realized in Q1 '99 is continuing in Q2,'' said C. Tycho Howle, Harbinger Chairman and CEO. ''Total revenue is expected to grow more than 15%, with revenue from continued products and services expected to grow more than 40% and revenue from continued software products expected to grow more than 60% over Q2 '98. Our current working forecast for Q3 '99 is also slightly ahead of current Wall Street expectations. Clearly, the Y2K impact has not materialized to the extent we originally anticipated for Q2 and would not appear to be a significant factor for Q3 performance at this time.''
