NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the
audited financial statements and footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
March 26,1997.
Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
The Company considers all highly liquid, low risk debt instruments with
a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash
equivalents. The Company generally invests its cash and cash equivalents in
money market accounts and agency repurchase agreements which are secured by
government agency securities.
The Company presently classifies all marketable securities as
available-for-sale investments and carries them at fair market value. Marketable
securities represent U.S. government obligations and indirect investments in
municipal obligations. Marketable securities classified as long-term represent
U.S. government obligations maturing no later than May 1999. Unrealized holding
gains and losses, net of taxes, are carried as a separate component of
shareholders' equity.
2. Issuance of Common Stock
Initial Public Offering
On February 29, 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering
(the "Offering") in which it sold 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock at $15.00 per
share. The Offering raised net proceeds of $33,863,764 (exclusive of
underwriting discount and $1,011,236 in related expenses).
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company received $500,663 from the issuance of 29,088 shares of
Common Stock on June 30, 1997 under the 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
Exercise of Stock Options
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company received $74,269
from the issuance of 188,565 shares of common stock upon exercise of options
under the 1992 Stock Option Plan.
Acquisition of Prism Consulting
On April 1, 1997, the Company acquired Prism Consulting, Inc., a
private management consulting firm for 339,285 shares of common stock at $14.00
per share and $250,000 in cash.

2. Issuance of Common Stock (continued)
Subsequent Event
The Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger and
reorganization on June 5, 1997 with TSW International, Inc., a Georgia
corporation. The Merger is intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization
pursuant to the provisions of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
and a pooling of interests for accounting purposes. The Company and TSW
International, Inc. will each become a subsidiary of a new Delaware corporation
named Indus International, Inc. which has been formed by the Company solely for
the purpose of the transactions contemplated under the Merger. Upon
effectiveness of the Merger, all the outstanding capital stock of the Company
and all the outstanding capital stock of TSW International, Inc. will be
converted into common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Indus International,
Inc.. Immediately following consummation of the Merger, the former shareholders
and optionholders of the Company and the former security holders of TSW
International, Inc. will collectively hold approximately 53.75% and 46.25%,
respectively, of Indus International, Inc. Common Stock on a fully diluted
basis.
3. Investment
The Company acquired a 10% interest in TenFold Corporation, a private
software company, for approximately $8 million in cash. The Company received a
perpetual, unrestricted license for applications and tools developed with
TenFold's technology.
4. Pro Forma Data
The pro forma data reflects adjustments which would have been
applicable had the Company been a C Corporation in all periods.
Statements of Operations
Effective upon its incorporation in 1990, the Company elected to have
its United States income taxed under Subchapter S of the Code. Income tax
provisions through December 31, 1995 have been principally attributable to state
taxes and taxes imposed by foreign governments on the Company's foreign
operations. The Company's S Corporation status terminated effective January 1,
1996, and the Company will be subject to federal income taxation at the
corporate level thereafter. In connection with the termination of S Corporation
status on January 1, 1996, a one-time charge representing a cumulative net
federal and state deferred income tax liability of $6.7 million was recorded.
For purposes of presenting comparative earnings and calculating
earnings per share data, pro forma net income for the second quarter of 1996
reflects the elimination of the $6.7 million cumulative deferred income tax
charge upon converting from an S Corporation to a C Corporation.

Per Share Data
<TABLE>
Pro forma net income per share is computed using pro forma net income
and the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares
outstanding during each period. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of
incremental common shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options
(using the treasury stock method). Fully diluted per share amounts are not
presented, as the effect is not material. The computation of the weighted
average number of shares outstanding for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996 is as follows (in thousands):

5. Earnings Per Share
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which is required to be adopted on
December 31, 1997. At that time, the company will be required to change the
method currently used to compute earning per share and to restate all prior
periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share,
the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact is expected to
result in an increase in primary earnings per share for the second quarter ended
June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996 of $.006 and $.01 per share, respectively. The
impact of Statement 128 on the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share
for these quarters is not expected to be material.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements located in the Research and Development, Sales and
Marketing and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections as a result of the
factors set forth below, among others. For a more complete discussion of these
factors, refer to the Risk Factors included in the Company's Definitive Proxy
Statement for a Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on August 25, 1997.
The Company has experienced, and may in the future experience, significant
fluctuations in quarterly revenues and operating results. The Company's revenues
and operating results in general, and in particular its revenues from new
licenses, are relatively difficult to forecast for a number of reasons,
including (i) the relatively long sales cycles for the Company's products, (ii)
the variable size and timing of individual license transactions, (iii) changes
in demand for the Company's products and services, (iv) competitive conditions
in the industry, (v) changes in customer budgets, (vi) the timing of the
introduction of new products or product enhancements by the Company or its
competitors, (vii) the Company's success in and costs associated with developing
and introducing new products, (viii) product life cycles, (ix) the timing of
revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method, (x) changes in
the proportion of revenues attributable to license fees versus services, (xi)
changes in the level of operating expenses, (xii) delay or deferral of customer
implementations of the Company's software, (xiii) software defects and other
product quality problems, and (xiv) other economic conditions generally or in
specific process industry segments. Further, the purchase of the Company's
products generally involves a significant commitment of capital, with the
attendant delays frequently associated with large capital expenditures and
authorization procedures within large organizations. For these and other
reasons, the sales cycles for the Company's products are typically lengthy and
subject to a number of significant risks over which the Company has little or no
control, including customers' budget constraints and internal authorization
reviews. In addition, delays in the completion of a product implementation may
require that the revenues associated with such implementation be recognized over
a longer period than originally anticipated. Such delays in the implementation
or execution of orders has caused, and may in the future cause, material
fluctuations in the Company's operating results. Similarly, customers may cancel
implementation projects at any time without penalty, and such cancellation could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or results of
operations. Because the Company's expenses are relatively fixed, a small
variation in the timing of recognition of specific revenues can cause
significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter and may in
some future quarter result in losses or have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business or results of operations. For a more complete discussion of
these factors, refer to the Risk Factors included in the Company's Definitive
Proxy Statement for a Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on August 25,
1997 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 1997.
Risks relating to the proposed merger of the Company and TSW International, Inc.
include: (i) risks relating to the integration of the operations of the Company
and TSW International, Inc.; (ii) the incurrence of the Combined Company of
certain non-recurring charges in connection with the Merger; (iii) the
additional shares of Indus International, Inc. Common Stock to be issued in the
Merger as well as the number of shares of Indus International, Inc. Common Stock
to be eligible for public resale; (iv) certain differences in the rights of
holders of the Company's Common Stock and TSW International, Inc. Capital Stock
resulting from the Merger; (vi) certain affiliates of the Company and TSW
International, Inc. have certain interests that are different from or in
addition to shareholders of the Company and shareholders of TSW International,
Inc. Risks relating to the business of the proposed Combined Company include:
(i) the Combined Company's ability to manage growth; (ii) the utilization by the
Combined Company of new distribution channels; and (iii) risks relating to the
successful integration of current and future products and technologies.
The Company has in the past and may in the future acquire complementary products
or businesses. Risks associated with such transactions include difficulty in
retaining ad assimilating the personnel of the combined companies, difficulty in
integrating the operations of the combined companies, disruption of the
Company's ongoing business, expenses associated with completing the transaction
and amortizing acquired intangible assets, and dilution of existing equity
holders. There can be no assurance that such transactions will not materially
adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition or operating
results.

Results of Operations
Overview. The Indus Group, Inc. develops, markets, and supports a proprietary
line of enterprise management software and implementation services for process
industry customers worldwide. Taking advantage of the client/server model of
networked computing, PASSPORT Software Solutions contain "best business
practices" which serve as the catalyst for improving core business functions for
electric utilities, oil and gas, chemical refining, forest products, and steel
producing industries. ABACUS, The Indus Group's proprietary methodology,
accelerates the realization of benefits by delivering a reliable cost and
time-efficient approach to implementation across the enterprise.
The Company derives its revenues primarily from software licenses,
implementation and training services and maintenance fees. While the Company has
derived the majority of its revenues from electric utilities, it also derives
revenues from customers in other process industries, such as the oil and gas,
petrochemical, steel and forest product industries.
The Company provides its software to customers under contracts which provide for
software license fees, system implementation services and the first year of
software maintenance. Revenues from software license fees, which typically have
ranged from approximately $1 million to $5 million per enterprise license, are
recognized as earned revenue over the estimated time period to complete the
implementation of the software, which generally is twelve to fourteen months.
Revenues from system implementation services, which typically are time- and
material-based, are recognized as direct contract costs are incurred and
typically range from one to three times the license fees.
Accordingly, revenues for each quarter depend in part on revenues from the
closing of new contracts during the quarter as well as revenue from contracts
under implementation that were executed in prior quarters. A portion of license
fees is deferred initially and subsequently recognized over the one-year period
during which continuing maintenance and support services are provided to
customers under the contracts. After an initial contract period, additional
maintenance and support services, for which the Company typically charges 15-18%
of the original license fee per year, are subject to separate contracts whereby
revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
In March 1997, the Company acquired a 10% interest in TenFold Corporation, a
private software company for approximately $8 million in cash. The Company will
receive a perpetual, unrestricted license for future applications and tools
developed with TenFold's technology. In April 1997, the Company acquired Prism
Consulting, a private management consulting firm, for $4.75 million in the
Company's stock at the then current market value and $250,000 in cash. The
Company has not and does not anticipate any material consequences on its results
of operations for the calendar year 1997 as a result of these acquisitions.
In June 1997, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger and
reorganization with TSW International, Inc., a Georgia corporation. The Merger
is intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization pursuant to the
provisions of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and a pooling of
interests for accounting purposes. The Company and TSW International, Inc. will
each become a subsidiary of a new Delaware corporation named Indus
International, Inc. which has been formed by the Company solely for the purpose
of the transactions contemplated under the Merger. Upon effectiveness of the
Merger, all the outstanding capital stock of the Company and all the outstanding
capital stock of TSW International, Inc. will be converted into common stock,
par value $.001 per share, of Indus International, Inc. Immediately following
consummation of the Merger, the former shareholders and optionholders of the
Company and the former security holders of TSW International, Inc. will
collectively hold approximately 53.75% and 46.25%, respectively, of Indus
International, Inc. Common Stock on a fully diluted basis.

Revenues. Total revenues increased 34% to $23.5 million in the quarter ended
June 30, 1997 from $17.6 million in 1996. In the first six months of 1997, total
revenues increased by 33% to $45.9 million from $34.5 million in 1996. Revenue
from international customers (excluding Canada and Mexico) accounted for 6.5%
and 8.6% of revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997,
respectively, and 20% for both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996.
As most of the Company's contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars, foreign
currency fluctuations have not impacted the results of operations. The top five
customers of the Company have accounted for approximately 34% and 35% of
revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, and
50% of revenues for both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996. The
composition of the top five customers has changed from year to year, with the
exception of one customer which generated revenues ranging from 9.5% of revenue
for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to 10.5% of revenue for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996.
Revenues from licensing fees increased by 11% to $4.2 million in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997 from $3.8 million in 1996. In the first six months of 1997,
licensing fees increased 2.5% to $7.9 million from $7.8 million in 1996. The
license fee growth from 1996 to 1997 resulted primarily from closing of a number
of license fee agreements with both new and existing customers. License fees as
a percentage of revenue were 18.0% and 21.6% for the three months ended June 30,
1997 and 1996, and 17.3% and 22.5% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1996.

<PAGE>
Results of Operations (continued)
Revenues from services and maintenance increased by 40% to $19.3 million in the
quarter ended June 30, 1997 from $13.8 million in 1996. In the first six months
of 1997, services and maintenance revenue increased 42% to $38.0 million from
$26.7 million in 1996. The service and maintenance growth from 1996 to 1997
resulted primarily from implementation services generated by several new
domestic contracts and additional implementation projects with existing
customers.
The Company does not believe that the revenue growth experienced in the first
six months of 1997 is necessarily indicative of any revenue growth that may
occur in future periods.
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of: (i) personnel and
related costs for implementation (including account executive personnel), and
(ii) training and customer support services. Substantially all of the cost of
revenues is attributable to providing services and maintenance; costs of
software license fees, which consist primarily of packaging and production
costs, are not significant and are not segregated in the Company's accounting
records. All software development costs are expensed to research and development
as incurred.
Cost of revenues increased 36% to $10.0 million in the quarter ended June 30,
1997 from $7.4 million in 1996. In the first six months of 1997, cost of
revenues increased by 39% to $19.6 million from $14.0 million in 1996. The 1997
increase in absolute dollars in cost of revenues was due principally to the need
for additional personnel to service the Company's customers. As a percent of
total revenue, cost of revenues was 43% and 42% for the quarters ended June 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively. For the first six months of 1997 and 1996, the cost
of revenues as a percent of total revenue was at 42.6% and 40.7%, respectively.
The slight increase in the percentage was due to growth in low-margin
reimbursable expenses. The Company's accounting policy is to record direct
reimbursable costs as revenue when billed to the customer, which is then offset
by the related cost of revenues. Since the direct reimbursable costs have little
or no margin, they reduce the overall gross margin as a percent of revenues.
Research and Development (R&D). Research and development expenses consist
primarily of: (i) personnel and related costs and (ii) computer timeshare costs
directly attributable to the development of new software application products,
enhancements to existing products and the costs of porting the Company's
products to different platforms.
Research and development expenses increased 9% to $3.6 million in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997 from $3.3 million in 1996. In the first six months of 1997,
research and development expenses decreased by 3% to $6.5 million from $6.7
million in 1996. As a percent of total revenue, research and development
expenses were 15.3% and 18.7% for the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. For the first six months of 1997 and 1996, research and
development expenses as a percent of total revenue were 14.2% and 19.5%,
respectively.
R&D investment increased in the second quarter in 1997 compared to 1996 due to
the timing of PASSPORT Release 6.0 which was completed by July 1997. PASSPORT
Release 5.0 was completed in the first quarter of 1996 resulting in a minimal
R&D cost impact in the second quarter of 1996. The Company believes that a
significant level of investment in R&D is essential to remain competitive. The
amount of R&D in absolute dollars for a particular period may vary depending on
the projects in progress.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, software
development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility of
the software is established, after which any additional costs are capitalized.
To date, the Company has expensed all software development costs because
development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological
feasibility have not been material.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased 61% to $3.2 million
in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 from $2.0 million in 1996. In the first six
months of 1997, sales and marketing expenses increased by 64% to $6.4 million
from $3.9 million 1996. As a percent of total revenue, sales and marketing
expenses were at 13.6%, 11.3%, 14.0% and 11.4% for the quarters ended June 30,
1997 and 1996 and for the first six months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
growth in sales and marketing expenses in absolute dollars is primarily due to:
(i) the addition of personnel, (ii) expansion into new vertical markets, (iii)
expansion of strategic alliance program, (iv) changes in the mix of the revenue
base on which commission expense is generated. The Company believes that sales
and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues may continue to
increase for the same reasons.

Results of Operations (continued)
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 18% to
$2.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 from $1.8 million in 1996. In
the first six months of 1997, general and administrative expenses increased by
21% to $4.5 million from $3.7 million in 1996. As a percent of total revenue,
general and administrative expenses were 9.3% and 10.5% for the quarters ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For the first six months of 1997 and 1996,
the general and administrative expenses as a percent of total revenue was 9.8%
and 10.7%, respectively. The growth in general and administrative expenses in
absolute dollars is primarily a result of: an expansion in staffing and increase
in other costs necessary to support the Company's growth.
Provision for Income Taxes. Effective upon its incorporation in 1990, the
Company elected to have its United States income taxed under Subchapter S of the
Code. Accordingly, income tax provisions prior to 1996 were principally
attributable to state taxes and taxes imposed by foreign governments on the
Company's foreign operations. The Company's S Corporation status terminated
effective January 1, 1996, and the Company will be subject to federal income
taxation at the corporate level thereafter. In relation to the termination of S
Corporation status as of January 1, 1996, a one-time charge representing a
cumulative net federal and state deferred income tax liability of $6.7 million
was recorded.
Net Income (Loss). The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was the
result of the $6.7 million cumulative deferred income tax liability charge upon
elimination of the S Corporation status.
Pro Forma Net Income. For purposes of presenting comparative earnings and
calculating earnings per share data, pro forma net income for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 reflects the elimination of the $6.7 million nonrecurring
cumulative deferred income tax charge upon converting from an S Corporation to a
C Corporation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had total assets of $84.5 million and $75.5 million at June 30, 1997
and December 31, 1996, respectively. Historically, the Company has financed its
operations primarily through cash provided by operations, borrowings under its
line of credit and, to a lesser extent, through borrowings from its Chief
Executive Officer and principal shareholder. In March 1996, the Company received
$33.9 million, representing the proceeds (net of underwriting commissions and
offering costs) from an initial public offering of 2,500,000 shares of its
Common Stock. These proceeds were used to purchase marketable securities
(comprised of municipal and U.S. government obligations) and certain cash
equivalent instruments.
As of June 30, 1997, the Company's principal sources of liquidity consisted of
approximately $313,000 in cash and cash equivalents and $25.0 million in
marketable securities. In addition, the Company has an unsecured revolving bank
line of credit agreement which permits borrowings, including stand-by letters of
credit, of up to $15 million. The facility expires in May 1999. No borrowings
were outstanding under this line at June 30, 1997.
In the six months ended June 30, 1997, cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities decreased substantially as a result of cash investment in a 10%
interest in TenFold Corporation ($8 million), the purchase of property and
equipment ($3.0 million), the purchase of marketable securities ($1.7 million),
and cash used by operations ($510,000). Cash paid for income taxes for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was $4.6 million and $3.2 million,
respectively.
Cash requirements are expected to continue to increase in order to fund: (i)
personnel and salary costs, (ii) research and development costs, (iii)
investment in additional technical equipment, and (iv) working capital
requirements. The Company presently anticipates additional capital expenditures
for the remainder of 1997 of approximately $2 million, primarily for equipment
and furniture.
The Company's principal commitments at June 30, 1997, consisted of obligations
under operating leases for facilities and computer equipment.
The Company believes that its existing cash and marketable securities, together
with anticipated cash flow from operations and available bank borrowings, will
be sufficient to meet its cash requirements during the next 12 months. The
foregoing statement regarding the Company's expectations for continued liquidity
is a forward-looking statement, and actual results may differ materially
depending on a variety of factors, including variable operating results or
presently unexpected usages of cash, such as the merger with TSW International,
Inc. and acquisitions.
