            NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

    The  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of
Advent  Software,   Inc.  (Advent)  and  its  wholly  owned  subsidiaries.   All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

    The  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  have been  prepared  in
accordance  with the  rules  and  regulations  of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  (SEC)   applicable  to  interim   financial   information.   Certain
information and footnote  disclosures  included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted in
these interim statements pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.  Management
recommends that these interim  financial  statements be read in conjunction with
the audited  financial  statements  and notes thereto  included in Advent's 1996
Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

    In management's  opinion,  the condensed  consolidated  financial statements
include all adjustments  necessary to present fairly the financial  position and
results of operations for each interim period shown.

2.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements

    In February 1997,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (FASB) issued
Statement  No.  128,  "Earnings  Per  Share",  (SFAS  128) which  specifies  the
computation,  presentation and disclosure requirements for net income per share.
SFAS 128 will become  effective  for  Advent's  1997  fiscal year end.  Advent's
management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 128 to have a material impact on
Advent's financial condition or results of operations.

    In June 1997, the FASB issued  Statement No. 130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income",  (SFAS 130) which  establishes  standards  for reporting and display of
comprehensive  income  and  its  components  in a full  set  of  general-purpose
financial statements. It is effective for Advent's fiscal year 1998. Advent will
be studying the  implications of SFAS 130, but the impact of its  implementation
on Advent's financial statements has not yet been determined.

    In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments
of an Enterprise  and Related  Information",  (SFAS 131) which  changes  current
practice under SFAS 14 by  establishing a new framework on which to base segment
reporting  (referred to as the "management"  approach) and also requires interim
reporting of segment information. It is effective for Advent's fiscal year 1998.
Advent  will be studying  the  implications  of SFAS 131,  but the impact of its
implementation on Advent's financial statements has not yet been determined.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
     of Operations

ACQUISITIONS

    In February,  1996,  Advent acquired Data Exchange,  Inc. (the DX Group),  a
private company based in New York, for $4.0 million in cash and an $800,000 note
payable. This note payable was paid during the third quarter of 1996 and did not
bear interest. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase.  Advent incurred
a one-time charge of $5.6 million in connection with the write-off of in-process
research and  development.  This expense was recorded in purchased  research and
development  and other  expenses.  As a result of this expense,  there was a net
loss per share of ($0.59) for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Excluding this
write-off net income per share would have been $0.20.

    In November  1996,  Advent issued 35,000 shares of Advent's  common stock in
exchange for all of the  outstanding  shares of Bold  Software,  Inc., a private
software  development  company based in New York. This business  combination was
accounted  for as a pooling  of  interests.  Prior  year  amounts  have not been
restated to include Bold  Software's  results of operations  as such  operations
were immaterial.  As a result of this business  combination,  Advent  introduced
Advent  Partner,  a tax  layering  and  partnership  allocation  solution  which
integrates with Axys.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    NET REVENUES. Advent's net revenues for the second quarter of 1997 increased
30% to $11.7  million,  as compared  with net  revenues of $9.0  million for the
second quarter of 1996,  reflecting increases in each component of net revenues.
Advent's net revenues  for the six months ended June 30, 1997  increased  33% to
$21.3 million, as compared with net revenues of $16.0 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996,  reflecting  increases in each  component of net  revenues.
License  revenue for the second quarter of 1997 increased 32% to $5.5 million as
compared  with license  revenue of $4.2 million for the second  quarter of 1996.
License  revenue for the six months  ended June 30, 1997  increased  41% to $9.5
million as  compared  with  license  revenue of $6.7  million for the six months
ended June 30, 1996.  The increase in both periods were due  primarily to higher
revenues derived from licensing of Axys,  Moxy, and Qube.  Maintenance and other
recurring  revenue for the second quarter of 1997 increased 24% to $4.4 million,
as compared with maintenance and other recurring revenue of $3.6 million for the
second  quarter of 1996.  Maintenance  and other  recurring  revenue for the six
months  ended June 30, 1997  increased  27% to $8.6  million,  as compared  with
maintenance and other recurring revenue of $6.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.  The  increases  in both  periods were due  primarily to a larger
customer base and higher average  maintenance fees.  Higher average  maintenance
fees are due to the increased  complexity of maintenance  services  provided and
increased  client  utilization of  proprietary  interfaces to access pricing and
other data supplied by third parties through  Advent's  proprietary  interfaces.
Professional services and other revenue for the second quarter of 1997 increased
38% to $1.8 million, as compared with professional services and other revenue of
$1.3  million for the second  quarter of 1996.  Professional  services and other
revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased 27% to $3.2 million, as
compared  with  professional  services and other revenue of $2.5 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1996. The increases in both periods were due primarily
to higher  product  sales  activity and higher  revenues  from  Advent's  second
quarter conference.

    COST OF REVENUES.  Advent's cost of revenues for the second  quarter of 1997
increased 29% to $2.3 million, as compared with cost of revenues of $1.8 million
for the second  quarter of 1996.  Advent's  cost of revenues  for the six months
ended June 30, 1997  increased  35% to $4.2  million,  as compared  with cost of
revenues  of $3.1  million  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1996.  Cost of
revenues as a percentage  of net revenues was  relatively  stable at 20% for the
second  quarter of 1997 and six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared  with 20%
for the second  quarter of 1996 and 19% for the six months  ended June 30, 1996.
Cost of professional  services and other revenue increased 61% to $1,021,000 for
the second  quarter of 1997, as compared with $636,000 for the second quarter of
1996 and  increased  57% to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997,
as compared  with $1.2 million for the six months  ended June 30, 1996.  Cost of
professional services and other revenue as a percentage of professional services
and other revenue increased to


                                     Page 7

<PAGE>


58% in the second  quarter  of 1997 from 49% in the  second  quarter of 1996 and
increased  to 58% for the six months  ended  June 30,  1997 from 47% for the six
months  ended June 30,  1996.  The  increase in expenses in both periods was due
primarily to increased staffing necessary to provide system integration,  custom
programming and conversion services to an expanding installed base. The increase
in the cost of  professional  services  and other  revenues as a  percentage  of
professional  services  and other  revenues is due  primarily to the increase in
personnel  dedicated to accelerating  the conversion of existing clients to Axys
Release 2.

    SALES AND MARKETING.  Advent's  sales and marketing  expenses for the second
quarter  of 1997  increased  18% to $3.8  million,  as  compared  with sales and
marketing  expenses  of $3.2  million for the second  quarter of 1996.  Advent's
sales and  marketing  expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997  increased
20% to $7.1  million,  as  compared  with sales and  marketing  expenses of $5.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Sales and marketing  expenses as
a percentage of net revenues decreased to 32% in the second quarter of 1997 from
36% in the second quarter of 1996. Sales and marketing  expenses as a percentage
of net revenues decreased to 33% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 from 37%
for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase in expenses in both periods
was due primarily to an increase in sales and marketing personnel.  The decrease
in sales and marketing  expenses as a percentage of net revenues in both periods
was due primarily to the ability of Advent's sales and marketing organization to
support an increased revenue base. In addition,  the decrease was also due to an
increase  in  maintenance  and  other  recurring  revenues  which  did not  have
significant associated sales and marketing expenses.

    PRODUCT  DEVELOPMENT.  Advent's product development  expenses for the second
quarter  of 1997  increased  35% to  $2.2  million,  as  compared  with  product
development  expenses of $1.6 million for the second  quarter of 1996.  Advent's
product  development  expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997  increased
42% to $4.3  million,  as compared  with  product  development  expenses of $3.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Product development  expenses as
a percentage of net revenues increased to 19% in the second quarter of 1997 from
18% in the second quarter of 1996. Product development  expenses as a percentage
of net revenues increased to 20% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 from 19%
for the six months ended June 30, 1996. These increases were primarily due to an
increase in personnel as Advent has increased its product development efforts to
accelerate the rate of product enhancements and new product introductions.

    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Advent's general and administrative expenses for
the second  quarter of 1997  increased  22% to $1.2  million,  as compared  with
general and  administrative  expenses of $1.0 million for the second  quarter of
1996. Advent's general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June
30  1997,   increased  16%  to  $2.3  million,  as  compared  with  general  and
administrative  expenses of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996.
General  and  administrative  expenses  as a  percentage  of  net  revenues  was
unchanged  at 11% for the  second  quarter of 1997 as  compared  with the second
quarter of 1996.  General and  administrative  expenses as a  percentage  of net
revenues  decreased  to 11% for the six months  ended June 30,  1997 as compared
with 13% for the six months  ended June 30,  1996.  The  increase in general and
administrative  expenses in both periods  reflects higher expenses  necessary to
support Advent's growth.

    PURCHASED  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND OTHER. On February 15, 1996,  Advent
acquired  Data  Exchange,  Inc. (the DX Group),  a private  company based in New
York,  for $4.0  million  in cash and an  $800,000  note  payable.  In the first
quarter of 1996, Advent incurred a one-time charge of $5.6 million in connection
with the write-off of in-process research and development due to the acquisition
of the DX Group. There was no comparable charge in 1997.

    INTEREST INCOME,  NET. Advent's interest income,  net for the second quarter
of 1997  increased 11% to $307,000,  as compared with  interest  income,  net of
$277,000 for the second quarter of 1996.  Advent's interest income,  net for the
six months  ended June 30, 1997  decreased  5% to  $572,000,  as  compared  with
interest  income,  net of $603,000 for the six months  ended June 30, 1996.  The
increase in the second  quarter 1997 as compared with the second quarter of 1996
was due to a higher cash and short-term investment balance. The decrease for the
six month period was due to a smaller  cash and  short-term  investment  balance
that resulted from the acquisition of the DX Group in the first quarter of 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Cash and  short-term  investments  totaled $33.6 million at June 30, 1997 as
compared  to $31.7  million at  December  31,  1996.  The  increase  in cash and
short-term   investments  was  primarily  due  to  cash  provided  by  operating
activities.

    Advent  believes that its existing cash and short-term  investments and cash
expected to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its cash and
capital requirements at least through fiscal 1997.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    The  discussion  in  "Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition  and  Results  of  Operations"   contains  trend  analysis  and  other
forward-looking   statements  that  are  based  on  current   expectations   and
assumptions  made  by  management.  Words  such  as  "expects",   "anticipates",
"intends",  "plans",  "believes",  "seeks",  "estimates", and variations of such
words and similar  expressions  are  intended to identify  such  forward-looking
statements.  These  statements  are not  guarantees  of future  performance  and
involve  certain  risks  and  uncertainties  which  are  difficult  to  predict.
Therefore,  actual  results  could  differ  materially  from those  expressed or
forecasted  in  the  forward-looking  statements  as a  result  of  the  factors
summarized  below and other risks  detailed  from time to time in reports  filed
with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  including  Advent's 1996 Annual
Report to  Stockholders,  incorporated  by reference in Advent's  1996 Form 10-K
Report. Additionally, the financial statements for the periods presented are not
necessarily  indicative of results to be expected for any future period, nor for
the entire year.

    Advent operates in a rapidly changing  environment that involves a number of
risks,  some of which are beyond  Advent's  control.  These  risks  include  the
potential  for  period to  period  fluctuations  in  operating  results  and the
dependence on the successful  development and market  acceptance of new products
and product  enhancements  on a timely,  cost  effective  basis,  as well as the
stability  of  financial  markets,  maintenance  of Advent's  relationship  with
Interactive Data and price and product/performance  competition.  In particular,
Advent's net  revenues and  operating  results  have varied  substantially  from
period-to-period  on a quarterly  basis and may continue to  fluctuate  due to a
number of factors.  Advent's  software  products  typically are shipped  shortly
after  receipt  of  a  signed  license   agreement  and  initial   payment  and,
consequently,  software  backlog  at  the  beginning  of any  quarter  typically
represents  only a  small  portion  of  that  quarter's  expected  revenues.  In
addition,  as Advent's  licenses into  multi-user  networked  environments  have
increased both in individual size and number,  the timing and size of individual
license  transactions are becoming  increasingly  important  factors in Advent's
quarterly  operating results.  The sales cycles for these transactions are often
lengthy and unpredictable,  and the ability to close large license  transactions
on a timely  basis or at all could  cause  additional  variability  in  Advent's
quarterly  operating  results.  Advent's  future success will continue to depend
upon its ability to develop new products,  such as Moxy, Qube, and Geneva,  that
address  the future  needs of its  target  markets  and to  respond to  emerging
industry  standards and practices.  Advent is directing a significant  amount of
its product  development  efforts on the  on-going  development  of Geneva.  The
failure to successfully  develop and achieve  widespread  market acceptance of a
fully  commercial  version of Geneva on a timely  basis would  adversely  affect
Advent's business and operating results.
