Walnut Creek, CA, February 24, 2010 - Ivory announced the planned release of SuperTRUMP Version 9.5 in March. It includes incremental enhancements that accommodate a wider variety of transactions to be easily analyzed and priced. Additionally, the new version adds more sophisticated accounting considerations.

According to Joseph Moore, director of sales and marketing for Ivory Consulting Corporation, improvements to SuperTRUMP pricing software have been made every one to two years since it was created in 1983. Enhancements are made based on customer feedback, and some respond to major changes in regulations, markets, and the evolving array of asset finance products and services that emerge over time.

The most recent enhancements Moore reported include:

• Enhanced municipal finance functionality;
• Features for easily structuring odd length payment periods;
• Improved residual accretion accounting;
• New collateral curve calculations (for assessing the value of assets over time).

SuperTRUMP performs financial analysis and optimization for true lease, loan, and lease vs. purchase transactions. It quickly and accurately calculates taxes, accounting entries, cash flows and termination values in investments, ranging from simple single-investor leases, operating leases and straightforward loans to highly structured leveraged leases.
