Results
                of Operations and Financial
                Condition.
On
      April
      27, 2006, Stratasys, Inc. (the "Company") announced its financial results for
      the first quarter ended March 31, 2006. A copy of the press release announcing
      the results is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K
      ("Form 8-K").
The
      press
      release includes references to earnings per share and diluted earnings per
      share
      on a non-GAAP basis. It also includes guidance for 2006 relating to diluted
      earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis. These non-GAAP financial measures
      exclude stock-based employee compensation costs and are reconciled to earnings
      per shares on a GAAP basis. The Company uses the foregoing non-GAAP measures
      in
      an effort to give information that investors may deem relevant to the Company's
      operations and comparative performance; primarily the identification and
      exclusion of expenses associated with stock-based compensation required under
      SFAS 123R. These non-GAAP disclosures should not, however, be viewed as a
substitute
      for GAAP measures, nor should they be viewed in direct comparison with non-GAAP
      measures of other companies.
In
      accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this
      Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the
      purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
      "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and
      shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other
      document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall
      be
      expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
