ITEM 2.02      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
     The information contained in this current report on Form 8-K is furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K “Results of Operations and Financial Condition”. This information and the exhibits hereto are being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of, or otherwise regarded as filed under, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The information contained in this report shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing of Forrester Research, Inc. with the SEC, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings.
     On April 26, 2006, Forrester Research, Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the full text of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
     Forrester believes that pro forma financial results provide investors with consistent and comparable information to aid in the understanding of Forrester’s ongoing business. Our pro forma presentation excludes the following, as well as their related tax effects:
     Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles — we exclude the non-cash effect of the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles from our pro forma results in order to more consistently present our ongoing results of operations.
     Impairments of and gains related to non-marketable securities and gains from sales of marketable securities — we have consistently excluded both one-time gains and one-time write-offs related to our investments in non-marketable securities and sales of marketable securities from our pro forma results in order to keep quarter over quarter and year over year comparisons consistent.
     Non-cash stock-based compensation expense – we exclude the stock-based compensation impact of APB Opinion 25 and SFAS 123R from our pro forma results in order to keep quarter over quarter and year over year comparisons consistent.
     However, these measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as more fully discussed in our financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
