              (In thousands)
The following table summarizes free cash flow for the Company:
-------------------------------------------------------------
--------- Three Months Six Months Ended Ended June 30, June 30, 2008 2008 ------------ ---------- Net cash provided by operating activities $ 5,212 $ 9,514 Purchases of property and equipment (266) (577) ------------ ---------- Free cash flow $ 4,946 $ 8,937 ============ ==========


Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which CPSI defines as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net cash provided by operating activities. The Company believes free cash flow is a useful measure of performance and uses this measure as an indication of the financial resources of the Company and its ability to generate cash.
