ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

         On October 7, 2004, Manhattan Associates, Inc. (the "Company")
announced certain of its preliminary financial results for the quarter ended
September 30, 2004 by issuing a press release. On October 8, 2004, Manhattan
will hold a related conference call to discuss these preliminary results. The
full text of the press release issued in conjunction with the announcement is
attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Pursuant to General
Instruction B.6 of Form 8-K, this exhibit is "furnished" and not "filed" for
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

         The press release includes, as additional information regarding the
Company's operating results, the Company's preliminary adjusted net income per
share, which excludes the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, net
of income tax effects. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative
for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP per share
measures used by other companies. The Company believes that this presentation of
preliminary adjusted net income per share provides useful information to
investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to
the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
