The SCO Group Announces First Quarter 2007 Results

LINDON, Utah — March 1, 2007 — The SCO Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SCOX), a leading provider of UNIX^® software technology and mobile services, today reported results for its first quarter ended January 31, 2007.

Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 was $6,015,000, down from $7,343,000 for the comparable quarter of the prior year. The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 was $(1,024,000), or $(0.05) per diluted common share, an improvement over the net loss of $(4,581,000), or $(0.23) per diluted common share, for the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to continued competitive pressures on the Company’s UNIX products and services.

“The cost structure that we put into place at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 as well as reduced litigation expenses allowed us to reduce both operating costs and cash used in the business,” said Darl McBride, president and CEO, The SCO Group. “We are committed to our UNIX business, introducing new mobile services and defending our intellectual property rights through the legal system.”

Legal and other expenses incurred in connection with the Company’s litigation were $654,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, which was down significantly from costs of $4,010,000 for the comparable quarter of the prior year and down from costs of $2,220,000 for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006. Because of the unique and unpredictable nature of the Company’s litigation, the occurrence and timing of litigation-related expenses is difficult to predict, and will be difficult to predict in the future. While the Company expects to continue to incur legal expenses related to its ongoing litigation during the 2007 fiscal year, the Company’s expectation is that those expenses will be less than they were for the 2006 fiscal year.

Cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale marketable securities and restricted cash to be used for certain legal expenses totaled $11,616,000 as of January 31, 2007, compared to $12,664,000 as of October 31, 2006.

The Company’s Business

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company made available HipCheck, a new mobile service designed to remotely control and manage UNIX and Windows server and PC systems. This unique mobile service uses a Windows Mobile phone or a PC to proactively monitor, manage and control printers, PCs, servers and other systems. HipCheck helps system administrators address potential problems before they impact users. HipCheck fixes many system issues right from the smart phone, helping to increase worker productivity and avoid downtime.

At the recent Consumer Electronics Show held in January 2007, the Company began exhibiting a pre-release version of Shout Postcard, a new mobile technology for sharing life’s moments on the go with a personalized, multimedia postcard. Shout Postcard creates a rich, mobile experience by combining pictures, audio and text into a unique postcard that users can share through e-mail or other smart phones. The Company recently announced the release of the free Community version of Shout Postcard, and the Company expects to begin selling the commercial version of Shout Postcard during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007. A free download and more information on Shout Postcard may be obtained by visiting www.shoutpostcard.com.

Additionally, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company plans to make available a new set of UNIX and mobile technologies to some of the Company’s major accounts. This new set of technologies will combine the Company’s UNIX technologies with its mobile services that will allow companies and organizations to realize greater productivity gains as customers seek to mobilize their businesses.
