Leading Retail Pharmacy in Western Australia Selects Epicor(R) to Streamline Financials and Inventory Management 
Pharmacy 777 to Implement Epicor for Retail

IRVINE, CA (August 31, 2005) - Epicor Software Corporation, a leading provider of integrated enterprise software solutions for the midmarket, today announced that the Pharmacy 777 Group, a leader in retail pharmacy, has selected Epicor® Enterprise, a comprehensive end-to-end suite of proven industry specific solutions for the global midmarket enterprise, to cut inventory requirements by up to ten percent, improve customer service and speed compliance reporting.

With an investment of $1 million (Australian dollars), the Pharmacy 777 Group will implement the Epicor for Retail suite providing a centralized point-of-sale (POS), warehousing, distribution, financials, customer relationship management (CRM) and business analysis platform all in one package, implemented by Epicor's partner in Western Australia, Precise Business Solutions.

Pharmacy 777 is a leader in retail pharmacy and was the first Pharmacy Group in Australia to be Quality Care Accredited. With 12 pharmacies in a network stretching from Mandurah in the south, through Perth up to Karratha in north-west Western Australia, Pharmacy 777 outlets operate seven days a week. The group's extended hours pharmacies are complemented by ten Pharmacy Help pharmacies which operate routine business working hours.

Pharmacy 777's goal is to be the most recognized pharmacy group in Australia for its level of customer service, with plans to open ten additional stores over the next five years. Epicor will underpin this growth across both Pharmacy 777 and Pharmacy Help by streamlining financial and compliance reporting operations and automating warehouse management and inventory controls to improve productivity, cut costs and improve customer service.

With Epicor for Retail, Pharmacy 777 hopes to achieve these aggressive goals without the need to acquire additional staff to support store growth by providing centralized, powerful back office financials management capabilities for general ledger, accounts payable and budgeting that tightly integrate with its distribution operations.

From an individual branch perspective, Epicor's solution will enable the group to analyze demographic purchasing habits, review revenue daily in different store locations and rapidly report on net profit and provide insight into which brands are selling at any particular point in time. It will also enable the organization to forecast inventory levels providing for better gross profit and accurate quarterly reporting compliance cycles.

"We were looking for a solution which was scalable, flexible and could integrate with our Winifred primacy dispensing software," said David Speak, director of business development and partner of Pharmacy 777. "We were impressed with Precise Business Solutions' ability to back up stated claims on anticipated efficiencies and customize the Epicor solution for our own pharmacy requirements. It will simply speed up our ability to gain economies of scale by systemizing processes from one central IT platform location. Reports on accounts payable, general ledger, and BAS statements will be automatically generated enabling us to gain an instant forecast dashboard for future revenue and performance management."
