ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

Walsh  International  Inc.  ("Walsh"  or the  "Company")  develops,  markets and
provides   comprehensive   sales   and   marketing   information   systems   for
pharmaceutical  companies  to assist them in the more  efficient  management  of
their sales  organizations.  Walsh is a market  leader in  providing  electronic
territory management systems ("ETMS") and sales management information solutions
("SMIS") to the  pharmaceutical  industry  worldwide.  Walsh also  provides data
services  and  marketing  support  services  based on  proprietary  databases of
medical professionals and others who influence prescribing decisions.

The Company was  incorporated in Delaware in 1988 and following the carve out of
Pharmaceutical  Marketing  Services Inc. ("PMSI") Walsh operated in two business
segments:

(i)  the Walsh  Business,  which includes sales force  management and integrated
     sales and marketing information  services,  associated medical professional
     databases and other  services  related to those  databases,  such as direct
     mail marketing and consulting, and

(ii) the Source Business,  which develops and provides proprietary  databases of
     prescriptions  dispensed by retail outlets in the United States. Source and
     PMSI  currently  collaborate  in  commercializing  the Source  prescription
     databases.  Source is  developing  similar  databases  in several  European
     countries,  and it is anticipated  that these would also be  commercialized
     jointly by PMSI and Source.

All of the  issued  and  outstanding  capital  stock of a  newly-formed  holding
company of the Source Business, Source Informatics Inc. ("Source"), was spun-off
to  the  existing  stockholders  of  the  Company  as of  April  16,  1996  (the
"Spin-Off").  Immediately prior to the Spin-Off, Walsh and its subsidiaries held
approximately  9.2% of the  outstanding  common stock of PMSI,  all of which was
transferred  to Source in the Spin-Off.  The results of the Source  Business are
presented as "discontinued operations" throughout document.

The Company's  principal executive offices are located at 105 Terry Drive, Suite
118, Newtown, Pennslyvania, telephone no. (215) 860 4949. Walsh has a technology
development  center in  Belgium  and local  operating  companies  in the  United
States,  Australia,  Austria,  Belgium,  Canada,  France,  Germany,  Italy,  the
Netherlands,  New Zealand,  Singapore,  Spain and the United  Kingdom.  With the
exception  of  Austria,  Singapore  and New  Zealand,  all such local  operating
companies provide full service support for Walsh's technology and data services,
including a client  sales and support  team, a database  maintenance  team and a
facilities management center.



                                        3

SERVICES

Walsh  provides  three  types of  services  that it has  designed to work either
independently  or  together  to  provide a  comprehensive  sales  and  marketing
information solution:

o    Technology  Services,  consisting  of PRECISE,  the  Company's  established
     advanced  ETMS,  and  Premiere,  the  Company's  SMIS which was launched in
     fiscal 1996;

o    Data Services, consisting of the Pharbase customer database service; and

o    Marketing Support Services,  consisting of Pharbase-driven selective direct
     marketing  services  supporting  the sales  organization,  and research and
     consulting services.

TECHNOLOGY SERVICES

PRECISE  is an  advanced  DOS-based  ETMS that can be run on  virtually  any PC,
enabling  the  Company  to  convert  clients  from  other  systems  without  the
requirement  for a hardware  upgrade.  As of June 30, 1996,  the Company and its
licensee had implemented  PRECISE for more than 380 sales forces with over 9,300
end-users.

Premiere,  the Company's SMIS introduced  during fiscal 1996, is a Windows-based
system  designed to support the client's  entire sales and marketing  team, with
additional  applications  for other users  within the client  company who either
need access to the sales  organization  or to  customer  data.  Premiere's  open
architecture  facilitates  integration  with other client  systems and access by
users outside the sales  organization,  including general  management,  medical,
clinical research and planning personnel.

Premiere was  designed as a  Windows-based  system,  rather than an upgrade of a
DOS-based system with a Windows user interface.  As a result,  Premiere does not
have the file size and networking limitations imposed by a DOS-based system, but
does  require  PC's with  sufficient  memory  to run  Windows  and the  Premiere
applications.  Additionally,  it  allows  full  multi-tasking  by all  end-users
through an icon-driven graphic user interface. The Premiere software is built on
distributed   relational   databases,   which  provide  greater  flexibility  in
retrieving and displaying various data elements,  and, like PRECISE, is designed
to handle  data over a wide area  network  ("WAN").  Multiple  file  servers can
operate on a local area  network  ("LAN"),  giving  Premiere the  capability  of
supporting the largest of pharmaceutical sales forces.  Premiere can be operated
using the client's  choice of any database  engine that meets the  international
standards  for open  databases  ("SQL"  and  "ODBC").  This  allows  any  client
selecting  Premiere  to  standardize  database  software   enterprise-wide,   if
required.

PRECISE and Premiere  systems are fully  customized  for each client to meet the
needs of the various end-users within the client organization.  Generally, sales
representatives are provided with a user-friendly, comprehensive system enabling
them to:


                                        4
<PAGE>


o    plan sales calls

o    report sales calls on medical professionals

o    analyze calling activity

o    track sales and promotional activity

o    collate and report discretionary promotional expenditure

o    communicate  and  coordinate  across sales forces and divisions within  the
     client organization


Field and head office managers are able to:


o    monitor and direct the activities of sales representatives

o    analyze calling and promotional activities

o    compare the performance of sales representatives or sales forces

Both  PRECISE  and  Premiere  are  designed  to manage and  distribute  customer
information  (such as that  compiled in the  Pharbase  databases)  as well as to
integrate  prescription  data  provided by Source or any other  supplier of such
data. In general, prescription data must be reprocessed before being distributed
through ETMS or SMIS, which can  significantly  delay the receipt of data by the
sales force.  The Company and Source have  entered  into a Preferred  Technology
Agreement  whereby the parties will collaborate to build and maintain a seamless
data interface between their respective  technologies to facilitate delivery, by
means of Premiere, of prescription data at the sales representative level.

Walsh  currently   provides  client  sales  and  support  teams  and  facilities
management  centers for PRECISE and Premiere in 13  countries  through its local
operating  companies and one licensee.  These operations are responsible for the
initial  implementation  and ongoing  support of a PRECISE or  Premiere  system.
Because installations are conducted by these local operating companies,  each of
which can customize a client's system using proprietary  System Builders,  Walsh
can implement multi-national contracts for PRECISE or Premiere concurrently.

Walsh's clients receive only fully  executable  applications.  Walsh retains the
source codes for PRECISE and Premiere at its  development  center,  distributing
only  executable  program  code  and  System  Builders  to the  local  operating
companies for use in the installation process. The process,  which usually takes
between three and five months, typically involves:




                                        5

<PAGE>

o    Project   management   designed   to  ensure   delivery   of  a  system  to
     specification, on time and on budget.

o    Design consultancy to assist the client in creating detailed specifications
     for its system.

o    System customization to the client's specific requirements.

o    Software loading and testing with PRECISE or Premiere.

o    Data loading with Pharbase, the client's own data and/or third-party data.

o    User documentation customized to match the client's functionality.

o    LAN set-up, as appropriate.

o    End-user training on the PRECISE or Premiere system, as appropriate.


All PRECISE and  Premiere  systems are  available  in the  client's  language of
choice.  The Company has  delivered  systems that operate in over 15  languages.
Where  appropriate  to the  market,  e.g.  Canada  and  Belgium,  the  system is
delivered in a dual or multi-language format.

PRECISE  and  Premiere  are  generally  offered to clients as part of an overall
service  package  under initial two or three year  contracts,  which then become
"evergreen"  (subject  to  automatic  annual  renewal  unless  terminated).  All
contracts  require the Company to customize  its PRECISE or Premiere  technology
with System Builders to deliver a client-specific  version of the service,  with
applications  appropriate  for sales  representatives,  field  managers and head
office  users.  In most  markets,  the  majority of the  Company's  clients also
contract  for  comprehensive  facilities  management  by  the  Walsh  facilities
management center,  including location and maintenance of the file server,  full
data back-up and  archiving  procedures,  user help line  support,  user problem
reporting, change management, hardware swap and other client support. Continuing
support is  provided to each client by Walsh's  local  operating  company in the
country where the client  operates.  Walsh does not offer perpetual  licenses of
its technology services to any client, nor does it sell its software.

In South Africa,  Walsh has licensed PRECISE and Premiere  technology to a third
party and receives royalties.

DATA SERVICES

Pharbase provides contact information and data on professional  affiliations and
other  prescribing  influences  with  respect to all  physicians  in  particular
national  markets.  In  some  of  these  markets,  the  database  also  contains
information  on  other  medical  professionals,  such  as  pharmacists  and  key
administrators. Pharbase is a leading source of pharmaceutical industry customer
data,  and  government   and   healthcare   agencies  in  certain   markets  use
Pharbase-driven mail programs to communicate with medical professionals for drug
recalls, contra-indication notices and other critical medical information.

                                        6

<PAGE>




Pharbase is available in Europe,  Canada,  Australia and New Zealand and is used
by  approximately  350 sales  forces.  It is  delivered  to clients  embedded in
PRECISE  or  Premiere,  through  a  third-party  ETMS,  by  magnetic  media  for
integration  with a  client's  head  office  systems,  or as  part  of a  direct
marketing  campaign,  often in  support  of the sales  force's  activities.  See
"Marketing  Support  Services."  Over 75% of PRECISE  clients also  contract for
Pharbase to provide data for their PRECISE service.  Data services are generally
provided  under  contracts  with an initial  two or three year term that  become
"evergreen."

Each of Walsh's local operating  companies has a database  maintenance team that
is  responsible  for the  maintenance  of the  comprehensive  national  Pharbase
databases,  subsets of which are  delivered  to clients as part of the  Pharbase
service.  The primary sources of information for the maintenance of the Pharbase
databases are client pharmaceutical companies,  questionnaires to physicians and
hospital  administrators,  mailing returns and  publications.  Every client that
contracts to use  Pharbase  within  PRECISE,  Premiere or another ETMS agrees to
notify the Company of any  additions,  deletions or changes  within its customer
database  (such as changes of  location,  affiliation  or medical  specialty  of
medical professionals).

Updating  information is also supplied by PMSI and by Source.  These updates are
then aggregated into the Pharbase databases and released to all Pharbase clients
once the changes have been verified.

MARKETING SUPPORT SERVICES

In certain of its markets,  Walsh provides  marketing support services using the
Pharbase databases. Marketing support services generally include direct mail and
market research services, and are contracted on a project-by-project basis.

Walsh's  direct mail  services  provide a relatively  inexpensive  means for its
clients  to   reinforce   the   impact  of   personal   sales   calls  by  their
representatives.  The Company is able to enhance the effectiveness of a client's
direct mail promotions by using Data Selector  programs to extract from Pharbase
databases  specific  information  regarding the targeted  mailing  audience.  In
Belgium,  Spain and Australia,  the Company  provides a selective  mailing label
supply service. In the United Kingdom, the Netherlands,  Germany and Canada, the
Company combines this service with mailing  facilities capable of processing the
range  and  size of  mailings  required  by the  pharmaceutical  and  healthcare
industries, to provide full-service direct mail marketing.

Walsh's market research services include data analysis, interviews (in person or
by telephone) and postal surveys. These services, which are available in Canada,
Australia and New Zealand, support the primary Walsh services by focusing on the
effectiveness of the sales and marketing process and general market forces. They
include both syndicated and client-specific services.

SALES AND MARKETING

The Company has organized its business in substantially all its current national
markets  through  local  operating  companies.  Walsh  believes  that the  local
expertise developed by these companies permits the

                                        7

<PAGE>



Company to develop integrated,  customized  solutions for the problems presented
by each national selling environment. Each local operating company has a team of
sales and client support staff  responsible for sales of the Company's  services
in its market.

The Company's  locally-based sales executives are supported by a corporate sales
and  marketing  group  responsible  for  initiating,  coordinating  and managing
multinational sales opportunities and creating strategic  relationships with the
Company's  clients.  The Company's  experience has been that some  international
pharmaceutical  industry  clients make decisions  regarding  sales and marketing
management  systems  centrally  while others make such decisions  locally,  with
regard to a  particular  national  market.  Together  with the  local  operating
companies,  the  corporate  sales and marketing  group has developed  strategies
specific to each client and potential client, reflecting the perceived manner in
which the client makes its  decisions.  Walsh also seeks to present a consistent
service and company image  internationally  to its clients and potential clients
through international marketing campaigns, industry exhibitions, client meetings
and regular user group forums.

GROWTH STRATEGY

The  Company's  growth  strategy  is to build on its  established  position as a
market leader through:

Increased Market Penetration for New and Existing Services

o    The Company  believes  that there is  significant  opportunity  to sell the
     Premiere  service to new clients and upgrade  existing  PRECISE  clients to
     Premiere,  while  increasing  the  penetration  of the  Company's  Pharbase
     service in established markets.

o    Premiere,  a  Microsoft  Windows-based  system  that can serve  large sales
     forces  more  effectively  than a DOS-based  system  such as  PRECISE,  was
     introduced in November 1995. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had installed
     Premiere for 8 clients.  The Company  currently  has  contracted to provide
     Premiere to 8 further clients,  and has entered into letters of intent with
     an additional 15 prospective clients.

o    PRECISE is currently provided under contracts and licensing arrangements to
     more than 380 sales forces,  representing  over 9,300  end-users.  Since no
     client  uses  PRECISE  in more  than 7 of the 11  markets  where  Walsh has
     operations,  the Company  expects to  continue  to sell  PRECISE to clients
     wishing to standardize ETMS internationally.  In addition,  because PRECISE
     can run on  inexpensive  hardware,  the Company  expects that there will be
     continuing  opportunities  to market  PRECISE to  clients  that do not have
     Windows-compatible hardware.

o    Pharbase  currently  supports over 350 sales forces,  approximately  270 of
     which  are  also  PRECISE   customers.   The  Company   believes  that  the
     introduction  of Premiere will present an  opportunity  for further  market
     penetration  for its  Pharbase  service.  Walsh  will  continue  to  market
     Pharbase independently of PRECISE and Premiere.



                                        8

<PAGE>



Expansion of U.S. Business

The  Company  intends  to  expand  its U.S.  presence  in  conjunction  with the
introduction  of Premiere,  which can serve large sales forces more  effectively
than DOS-based systems such as PRECISE.  The Company may also seek to expand its
U.S. presence by acquiring businesses with complementary client bases, databases
or technology.

Expansion into New Geographic Markets

The Company intends to expand into other growing  healthcare  markets worldwide.
On January 25, 1996, the Company entered into a Joint Venture  Agreement with an
affiliate of Zuellig Pharma S.A. ("Zuellig"), pursuant to which the parties have
established a joint venture for the  commercialization of the Company's PRECISE,
Premiere  and  Pharbase  services in 12  countries  in  Asia-Pacific.  The joint
venture  company has been formed in Singapore.  Walsh owns 51% of the equity and
has operational  control of the joint venture.  The joint venture has an initial
capitalization of $500,000. After June 30, 1997, the joint venture will have the
option to acquire the Company's Australian and New Zealand operations,  although
the  Company  does not have  any  current  plans  to  cause  such  option  to be
exercised.  Zuellig is a major healthcare  company in the  Asia-Pacific  market,
providing  pharmaceutical  distribution,  wholesaling,  manufacturing  and sales
services to a number of international  pharmaceutical and healthcare  companies.
It will assist the joint venture in establishing  commercial  relationships with
potential  clients in the market.  The joint venture  became  operational in the
third  quarter of fiscal 1996. It is not  anticipated  that the joint venture or
its option to purchase the Company's  Australian and New Zealand operations,  if
exercised,  will  materially  affect  the  Company's  results of  operations  or
financial condition over the next two fiscal years.

Diversification within the Healthcare Industry

PRECISE,  Premiere  and  Pharbase  have been  designed  to support the sales and
marketing  function  of  healthcare   industry  suppliers  outside  the  ethical
pharmaceutical  industry. The Company intends to diversify within the healthcare
industry  and  currently  provides  PRECISE  to eight  such  clients,  including
suppliers of OTC pharmaceuticals,  nutritional products and medical diagnostics.
The Company anticipates that the OTC market will become  increasingly  important
as branded prescription-only drugs are reclassified to permit OTC sale.


Entering New Industry Markets

Building on its experience in the healthcare industry,  the Company will explore
opportunities  for  exploiting  the  PRECISE  and  Premiere  services  in  other
industries that have complex selling  environments.  Walsh anticipates that such
expansion  would be  implemented  primarily  through joint  ventures,  strategic
partnerships  or  licensing  agreements  with  established  businesses  in  such
industries that could provide the necessary data  expertise.  The Company is not
currently  involved in negotiations or party to any agreements or understandings
with respect to any such arrangement that would be material.


                                        9

<PAGE>



COMPETITION

The market for sales and marketing  information  systems is highly  competitive.
Many companies offer ETMS and other sales force  automation  products,  although
few focus on the  pharmaceutical  industry.  The Company believes that there are
approximately  10  other  companies  that  supply  products   automating  sales,
marketing  and  customer   service   functions  and   specifically   target  the
pharmaceutical industry. Certain of these companies have a significantly greater
market share than Walsh in certain of the markets in which  PRECISE and Premiere
are offered,  including  Dendrite  International,  Sales Technologies and CorNET
International in the United States and Cegedim in France.

Sales  and   marketing   information   systems   differ   greatly  in  terms  of
functionality,  flexibility  and the type of hardware  platform  supported.  The
Company's  products and services compete with others principally on the basis of
market expertise,  product  functionality,  flexibility and customization,  name
recognition,  global  coverage,  service  standards,  breadth of customer  base,
technical  support and cost.  Management  believes the Company's systems compete
favorably with respect to these factors.  In  particular,  the Company  believes
that its  development  strategy,  which  permits  system  customization  without
modifying  the  underlying   source  code,  allows  the  Company  to  deliver  a
fully-customized system more rapidly and at less cost than competing systems.

Some of the  Company's  existing  competitors,  as well as a number of potential
market  entrants,  have larger  technical  staffs,  larger  marketing  and sales
organizations  and greater financial  resources than the Company.  Additionally,
the corporate parent of one of the Company's  competitors,  Sales  Technologies,
controls  certain  of the  proprietary  data  collection  systems  that  provide
prescription  sales data in some  countries  (including  the  United  States) to
pharmaceutical  companies.  It may be possible for Sales  Technologies to gain a
competitive  advantage  in the  pricing  of  its  ETMS  for  customers  who  are
interested in purchasing the data collected by its corporate affiliate. However,
the Company  believes that its proposed  preferred  technology  partnership with
Source, which offers similar prescription sales data, will enable the Company to
compete effectively.

Competition  will increase in the future if new competitors  enter the market to
supply sales management systems to the  pharmaceutical  industry and as existing
competitors  expand and enhance their product  lines.  The Company may encounter
additional  competition  in  the  future  from  firms  offering  outsourcing  of
information  technology  services,  from vendors of software products  providing
specialized  applications  not offered by the  Company and from the  development
and/or operation of in-house systems by pharmaceutical  companies.  There can be
no  assurance  that the  Company  will be able to compete  successfully  or that
competition will not have a material  adverse effect on the Company's  business,
operating results or financial condition.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Walsh's pharmaceutical  industry clients are subject to constraints put in place
by government payers in certain countries that restrict prescriber choices among
various  drugs,  and may also be subject to changes in the  healthcare  delivery
systems in Europe,  the United  States and other  countries in which the Company
operates.   These  factors  may  affect  the  sales  and  marketing   budget  of
pharmaceutical companies and, in

                                       10

<PAGE>



turn, reduce the demand for the Company's products and services. There can be no
assurance  that the Company  will respond  effectively  to all of these or other
changes in the market place.

In addition to regulations affecting its pharmaceutical  industry clients, Walsh
is directly  subject to certain  restrictions  on the collection of data.  There
have been  legislative  efforts in many markets to limit the  dissemination  and
sale of certain information that may be considered private.  The Company neither
collects nor  disseminates  data concerning the names or identities of patients.
The Company believes that its data collection and dissemination practices comply
with the requirements of applicable national data privacy  legislation,  as well
as  industry-promulgated  and nationally  recognized codes of conduct.  However,
there can be no  assurance  that  future  legislation  or  regulations  will not
directly or indirectly  restrict the collection or  dissemination of information
regarding  physicians,  the  prescribing  history  of  physicians  or other data
currently collected or disseminated by the Company.  Any such restrictions could
have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 30, 1996, Walsh employed  approximately 525 employees in 13 countries
with each of the 10 local operating  companies in the United States,  Australia,
Belgium,  Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands,  Spain and the United
Kingdom employing at least 20 people staffing the client sales and support team,
facilities  management  center and database  maintenance  team.  The Company has
completed an extensive  personal  development  program within its senior country
management,  as well as skills  training within its client sales and support and
technical specialists.

The Company  believes  that  relations  with  employees  are good.  There are no
collective  bargaining  agreements  in place.  In the  Netherlands,  France  and
Germany, the Company has Workers Councils, which is a legal requirement in those
countries.

ITEM 2  PROPERTIES

The Company's  principal  executive  offices in the United States are located in
Newtown, Pennsylvania.  Walsh owns office space consisting of 10,000 square feet
in the United  Kingdom.  The Company  leases  144,000  square feet of office and
warehouse  space in various  locations  in the United  States,  Canada,  Europe,
Australia,  New  Zealand and  Singapore.  Management  believes  that its current
facilities, and other space which is readily available, are adequate to meet its
needs for the foreseeable future.

On-line, batch processing and file server operations, which are performed at the
Company's database maintenance and facilities  management centers, are backed up
each night in fireproof  surroundings and stored off-site weekly.  Copies of the
Company's  operating  systems,  key  applications  and critical  client data are
maintained  off-site.  The Company does not rely on unique hardware systems, and
its purchase and  maintenance  agreements  with third parties provide for backup
support  in the  event of a  computer  failure.  Each  center  has a  documented
disaster recovery plan, which is subject to regular test.

All clients require that Walsh hold their  confidential  databases separate from
those of other clients.  Facilities  management centers are maintained as secure
areas.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
             OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

OVERVIEW

Since its inception in 1988 the Company has been built  principally  through the
acquisition  of  companies  providing   technology  and  data  services  to  the
pharmaceutical  industry.  Until  April 16,  1996 the  Company  operated  in two
business segments: (i) the Walsh Business, which includes sales force management
and integrated  sales and marketing  information  services,  associated  medical
professional  databases and other  services  related to those  databases such as
direct mail marketing and consulting and ii) the Source  Business which includes
a range of products and services  primarily  marketed  under the name  "Source",
that utilize proprietary databases of prescriptions  dispensed by retail outlets
in the United States.

The Board of Directors  decided that the businesses  needed separate  management
focus, as two independent companies.  Accordingly, prior to Walsh's public stock
offering in April 1996 all the issued and  outstanding  capital  stock of Source
Informatics  Inc.,  a newly  formed  holding  company  for the  Source  Business
("Source")  was spun-off to the Company's  stockholders  (the  "Spin-Off").  The
results of the Source Business are presented as  discontinued  operations in the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Approximately  90% of the  Company's  revenues  for fiscal  1996 were  generated
outside  the United  States in local  currencies.  Because of its  international
operations,  the  Company's  operating  results are subject to  fluctuations  in
foreign  currency  exchange rates.  Although most of the Company's  services are
priced in the local currency of the client's operations,  the effects of foreign
currency  fluctuations  are  mitigated  by the fact that  expenses  of the local
operating  company  servicing  the client  are  generally  incurred  in the same
currency as sales. The reported net income (loss) of foreign  subsidiaries  will
be affected by changes in the exchange rates of foreign  currencies  against the
U.S. dollar. The foreign currency risk applicable to the operations of Walsh has
not been hedged in the past.

The Company's future results will be dependent in part upon management's ability
to take advantage of the operating  leverage in the Walsh Business by increasing
revenues from both existing and new services.

Revenues
- --------

Walsh derives its revenues primarily from technology services, including PRECISE
and other sales force management products,  and from data services,  principally
Pharbase.  The Company began recognizing initial revenues from Premiere, its new
technology  service,  in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.  Technology services
and data services  accounted for approximately 72% of the Company's  revenues in
fiscal  1996.  To a lesser  extent,  revenues  are also  generated  by marketing
support  services,  including  direct mail marketing,  market research and other
data  services.  The  Company  sells its  PRECISE and  Premiere  services  under
multi-year  contracts,  generally with an initial term of two or three years and
subject to automatic  renewal annually  thereafter  unless  terminated.  PRECISE
revenues are recognized  proportionately  over the life of the contract with the
exception  of certain  set-up and  training  charges,  which are  recognized  on
delivery. Revenues from Premiere are recognized in the same fashion. Over 95% of
PRECISE  contracts  are renewed  annually.  The Company has also achieved a high
degree of repeat  business with respect to other  products and services that are
not provided under multi-year  agreements.  Because the Company has a short lead
time between contract signing and commencing service delivery,  it does not have
material backlog.

Revenues  increased to $47.3 million for fiscal 1996,  compared to $40.3 million
for fiscal 1995, an increase of 17%. The growth in revenues primarily  reflected
an 18%  increase  in  PRECISE  revenues  and start up  Premiere  revenues.  This
increase was principally attributable to the developing markets of France, Spain
and Italy. Pharbase revenues also showed strong growth for the year.

Revenues  increased to $40.3 million for fiscal 1995,  compared to $34.5 million
for fiscal  1994  representing  an increase  of 17%.  Eliminating  the impact of
favorable  exchange rate movements in the period,  revenues would have increased
by 13%.  The  increase in revenues  for fiscal 1995  primarily  reflected an 18%
increase in PRECISE revenues attributable to new PRECISE contracts both in the

                                                        17

United Kingdom and in the Company's  developing  businesses in Italy,  Australia
and France.  The PRECISE revenue  increase was offset by declines in direct mail
revenues, principally in the United Kingdom.

Production Costs
- ----------------

The Company's production costs include internal computer costs, the cost of data
collection, the amortization of capitalized software development costs and costs
attributable  to  personnel  involved  in  both  database  maintenance  and  the
processing  and  delivery of the  Company's  services.  The Company  expenses as
incurred the costs associated with the creation,  development and maintenance of
its databases.  As a consequence,  the Company's balance sheets do not reflect a
value  assigned to such  databases.  Certain  elements of  production  costs for
technology  services and database  services,  such as data collection  costs and
amortization of capitalized  software  development costs are fixed costs that do
not increase as a result of adding new clients. Most of the remaining production
costs, such as personnel and internal  computer costs,  generally have increased
at a lower rate than  revenues.  These costs are variable in nature,  but do not
increase directly in proportion to the number of new clients or end-users.  Such
costs  increase  from  time to time as new  hardware  or staff are  required  to
support a larger client base.

As a result of this  operating  leverage,  production  costs  have  consistently
declined as a percentage of revenues for the periods presented. The decline also
reflects,  to a lesser degree, that revenues from direct mail services decreased
as a percentage of total revenues over the periods  presented.  Production costs
for direct mail marketing  services are significantly  higher as a percentage of
associated  revenues than production costs for other Walsh services,  reflecting
their relatively higher labor costs.

Production costs were $18.4 million (39% of revenues) for fiscal 1996,  compared
to $17.7  million (44% of revenues)  for fiscal 1995.  The increase in costs was
due to the increased revenue;  the fall as a percentage of revenues  demonstrate
the Company's operating leverage.

Production costs were $17.7 million (44% of revenues) for fiscal 1995,  compared
to $15.4  million  (45% of  revenues)  for fiscal  1994.  The increase in dollar
amount for fiscal 1995 primarily  reflects the build-up of database  maintenance
and facilities management infrastructure in Germany, Italy and Spain. Production
costs have  declined  as a  percentage  of  revenues  reflecting  the  Company's
operating leverage.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
- --------------------------------------------

Selling,  general and administrative expenses increased to $21.3 million (45% of
revenues)  for fiscal 1996 from $19.4  million (48% of revenues) in fiscal 1995.
This  increase of $1.9 million is  primarily  due to  increased  selling  costs,
including expansion of its worldwide management and sales capacities at both the
corporate and local levels and costs incurred with the launch of Premiere.

Selling,  general and administrative expenses decreased to $19.4 million (48% of
revenues) for fiscal 1995, from $21.4 million (62% of revenues) for fiscal 1994,
a decrease of 9%.


                                       18

<PAGE>



The  decrease  as  a  percentage  of  revenues  for  fiscal  1995  reflects  the
implementation  of plans  developed  at the end of  fiscal  1994 to  review  the
Company's cost structure and improve efficiency on a worldwide basis, including,
among other  things,  reductions in work force,  restructuring  of certain local
operating companies and elimination of duplicated functions.  The improvement in
selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  in fiscal 1995 would have been
greater but for the impact of exchange rate movements.

Research and Development Costs
- ------------------------------

The Company has made significant investments in Premiere and actively invests in
expanding its databases and enhancing its technology and services. The Company's
accounting policy is to expense as incurred costs associated with developing the
Company's  databases and computer  technology for internal use.  Expenditures to
develop software for resale to clients are capitalized  pursuant to Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 86,  "Accounting  for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise  Marketed" ("SFAS 86"). The Company has
capitalized no more than 22% of its total research and development  costs in any
period.  Capitalized  costs are amortized (as part of production costs) over the
life of the software. See Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Research and  development  costs were $3.5  million (7% of revenues)  for fiscal
1996  compared  to $4.0  million  (10% of  revenues)  for fiscal 1995 due to the
reduction in consultants required for developing Premiere.

Research and  development  costs were $4.0 million (10% of revenues)  for fiscal
1995,  compared to $3.0 million (9% of revenues)  for fiscal 1994.  The increase
for fiscal 1995 reflects costs associated with the development of Premiere.

Income Taxes
- ------------

Federal, foreign and state income taxes in the consolidated financial statements
have been computed for each country  according to the fiscal and legal structure
under which the various entities operate.  Although Walsh has incurred losses on
a  consolidated  basis for the years ended June 30, 1994 and 1995,  income taxes
have been paid by profitable foreign subsidiaries due to the inability to offset
profitable  operations  against  loss making  operations  in the  differing  tax
jurisdictions.

Statutory  income tax rates on such profitable  foreign  subsidiaries  ranged in
fiscal 1996 and 1995 from  approximately 33% to approximately 41%. The Company's
provision  for  taxes  in  fiscal  years  ended  June  30,  1994,  1995 and 1996
represented  primarily  accruals for foreign  taxes.  United States  federal and
state income taxes for fiscal years ended June 30, 1994,  1995 and 1996 were not
provided as a result of the  utilization of federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards  ("NOLs") or current year operating  losses. At June 30, 1996, the
Company had available foreign NOLs of approximately  $15.8 million and U.S. NOLs
of approximately $21.0 million, which may provide future tax benefits.


                                       19

Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 109,  "Accounting for
Income  Taxes,"  requires  that a valuation  allowance  be recorded  against tax
assets which are not likely to be realized.  The Company's  carryforwards expire
at various future dates.  Realization is entirely dependent upon future earnings
in specific tax  jurisdictions.  While the need for this valuation  allowance is
subject to periodic review, if the allowance is reduced, the tax benefits of the
carryforwards  will be  recorded  in future  operations  as a  reduction  of the
Company's  income  tax  expense.  Due  to  the  uncertainty  of  their  ultimate
realization  based upon past  performance  and expiration  dates, as of June 30,
1994 and 1995 the Company had  established a full  valuation  allowance  against
these  carryforward  benefits.  Pursuant to the requirements of SFAS 109, in the
year ended June 30, 1996 the Company  recognized  a tax benefit for the reversal
of  previously  established  valuation  allowances  principally  related  to the
transfer  of the shares of PMSI stock by Walsh to Source in the  Spin-off  and a
reassessment of the carryforwards available in Spain and Italy as it is now more
likely than not that a corresponding  future tax benefit in those  jurisdictions
will  be  realized.   The  deferred  taxes  related  to  the  PMSI  shares  were
subsequently transferred to Source as part of the Spin-off. See Note 13 of Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The  Company  believes,   based  on  discussions  with  its  independent  public
accountants,  Coopers & Lybrand,  L.L.P.,  that the Spin-Off should qualify as a
tax-free  distribution  pursuant to Section 355 of Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the  "Code").  The  Company  has  applied  for a  ruling  from the IRS that the
Spin-Off  so  qualifies.  However,  Coopers & Lybrand,  L.L.P.  has  advised the
Company  that there can be no  assurance  that the IRS will  provide the Company
with a favorable  ruling or that the Spin-Off  will qualify under Section 355 of
the Code.  If the  Spin-Off  does not  qualify as a tax-free  distribution,  the
Company would be required to utilize a  substantial  portion of its U.S. NOLs to
offset income deemed to be realized by the Company in the Spin-Off.  Because any
cash  expenditure  would not be  material,  and because  such U.S.  NOLs are not
otherwise expected to be significantly  utilized in the near future, the Company
does not  believe  that the  failure  of the  Spin-Off  to qualify as a tax-free
distribution would have a material effect on the Company's  liquidity or results
of operations.

Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations
- ----------------------------------------

The Company had income from  continuing  operations of $2.1 million for the year
ended June 30, 1996, compared with a net loss from continuing operations of $3.0
million  for the  comparable  period  of fiscal  1995.  The  improvement  in the
Company's  results  reflects a $ 7.0 million  (17%)  increase in revenues  and a
smaller  increase in total operating costs and expenses ($2.2 million or 5%). In
addition, the results for the current period include the effect of recognizing a
tax benefit  related to the transfer of PMSI stock,  as  discussed  above and in
Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated  Financial Statements.  The Company's loss from
continuing operations was $3.0 million for fiscal 1995, compared to $5.9 million
for  fiscal  1994.  For  fiscal  1995,  revenues  increased  by 17% while  total
operating costs and expenses increased by 1%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Since inception the Company has been financed primarily through private sales of
equity and debt  securities,  sales of shares in PMSI and,  to a lesser  extent,
from cash generated from operations.  On April 16, 1996 the Company underwent an
Initial Public Offering ("IPO") which, including the overallottment,

                                       20

<PAGE>



generated  net proceeds of $33.3  million of which $14.7 million was utilized to
repay high interest  debentures.  At June 30, 1996 the Company had cash and cash
equivalents  totalling  $8.6 million and a further $10.0  million  invested in a
portfolio of marketable securities. In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company
transferred  $5.2 million of cash to Source,  together with its remaining shares
in PMSI.

Net cash used in  operating  activities  amounted  to $0.2  million for the year
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to net cash provided by operating  activities of
$8.8 million for the year ended June 30, 1995.  Fiscal 1995  benefitted from the
improvement in working capital  management  over fiscal 1994,  referred to below
plus some substantial  favorable timing differences in settlement of receivables
and payables.  Net cash used in operating activities was $4.3 million for fiscal
1994. Substantially all of the improvement in 1995 was due to improved operating
performance and working capital management.

The  Company's  investing  activities  for the year ended June 30, 1996 totalled
$11.6 million  including  $10.0  million  invested in a  professionally  managed
portfolio of marketable  securities plus expenditures for property and equipment
and capitalized  software  development costs. The marketable  securities held by
the  Company are  considered  current  assets  since it has both the ability and
intent  to  realize  these  securities  in the  normal  operating  cycle  of the
business.  For the year ended June 30,  1995,  net cash  provided  by  investing
activities  was $6.0 million due to the sale of PMSI shares in fiscal 1995.  The
proceeds of such sales were used to fund the  development  of  Premiere  and the
Walsh  operations in Germany and France.  This compared to $1.9 million provided
by investing activities in Fiscal 1994.

Net cash  provided by  financing  activities  for the year ended June 30,  1996,
primarily due to the completion of the IPO, was $14.5 million  compared with net
cash used in financing  activities  of $0.3  million in fiscal 1995.  Of the IPO
proceeds  $14.7 million was used to repay  debentures.  The completion in fiscal
1994 of a  private  financing  through  the  issuance  of  Series A  Convertible
Preferred  Stock,  generated  net  proceeds of $23.2  million,  causing net cash
provided by financing activities of $24.2 million in fiscal 1994.

For fiscal 1996, 1995 and 1994,  discontinued operations consumed cash amounting
to $8.3 million, $11.6 million and $12.1 million,  respectively.  In addition to
funding operations, in fiscal 1995 cash was used to repay a loan of $5.0 million
received in connection with the acquisition of a Source business.

The Company believes that the anticipated cash flow from operations and existing
cash balances will satisfy the Company's  projected  working capital and capital
expenditure requirements through at least the end of fiscal 1998.

New Accounting Standards
- ------------------------

The  Financial   Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued  SFAS  No.  121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed  Of." SFAS No. 121 requires  companies to adopt its  provisions  for
fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 1995. The provisions of SFAS No. 121
require  the  Company  to review its  long-lived  assets  for  impairment  on an
exception  basis whenever events or changes in  circumstances  indicate that the
carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable  through future cash flows.
An impairment loss is indicated when the


                                       21

<PAGE>



carrying amount exceeds such cash flows.  The Company believes that the adoption
of SFAS No.  121 will  have no  material  impact on the  consolidated  financial
statements.

Additionally,  the FASB has issued SFAS No.  123,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation."  The Company will choose the "disclosure only" alternative and is
in the  process  of  evaluating  the  impact of the pro forma  disclosures.  The
Company will adopt SFAS No. 123 effective fiscal 1997.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
- ---------------------------------

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Walsh International Inc.

We  have  audited  the  accompanying   consolidated   balance  sheets  of  Walsh
International Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 1995 and 1996 and the related
consolidated  statements of operations,  stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows for each of the three  years in the  period  ended  June 30,  1996.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all  material   respects,   the   consolidated   financial   position  of  Walsh
International  Inc.  and  Subsidiaries  as of June  30,  1995  and  1996 and the
consolidated  results of their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the
three  years in the period  ended June 30,  1996 in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting principles.

                    WALSH INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.  THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------

THE COMPANY

Walsh   International  Inc.  ("Walsh"  or  the  "Company")  provides  electronic
territory management systems and sales management information solutions, as well
as data services and associated  support  services,  to the  pharmaceutical  and
healthcare industries. The Company's principal markets are located in Australia,
Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands,  New Zealand,
Singapore, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On April 16, 1996 the Company  consumated an Initial Public Offering  ("IPO") or
("Offering").  The Offering resulted in the issuance of approximately  3,187,000
shares  of the  Company's  common  stock and  generated  net  proceeds  of $33.3
million.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of Walsh and all of
its majority-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements have been
restated  for  discontinued  operations  (see Note 2).  The  accompanying  notes
present  amounts  related  only  to  continuing  operations.  All  inter-company
balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. On February 21,
1996 the  Company's  Board of Directors  approved a  one-for-four  reverse stock
split  of  the  Company's  Common  and  Series  A  Convertible  Preferred  Stock
("Preferred Stock"). All references in the accompanying  consolidated  financial
statements to the number of shares and per share amounts have been retroactively
adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

GOODWILL

Under the purchase  method of  accounting,  the excess of the purchase  price of
businesses acquired over the fair value of tangible and identifiable  intangible
assets at the dates of acquisition has been assigned to goodwill. The net assets
and  results  of  operations  of the  acquisitions  have  been  included  in the
consolidated  financial statements of the Company from their respective dates of
purchase.  The goodwill  reflected in the Company's  balance sheets  principally
relates to the Company's  direct mail  marketing  business and is amortized on a
straight-line basis over periods not exceeding 40 years.

The Company  assesses the  recoverability  of its  goodwill,  on a subsidiary by
subsidiary  basis,  by  determining  whether  amortization  of  goodwill  can be
recovered  through  undiscounted   projected  net  income,   excluding  goodwill
amortization,  of the  respective  subsidiary.  Impairment,  if any, is measured
based on projected discounted net income, excluding goodwill amortization, using
a discount rate reflecting the Company's cost of funds.

                                       F-7

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment  are recorded at cost.  All  maintenance  and repairs are
expensed as incurred.

Depreciation  and  amortization  are  provided  on  the   straight-line   basis.
Furniture,  office  equipment and computer  equipment are depreciated  over five
years.  Leasehold  improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of
the assets or the lease terms  (maximum  of 10 years),  whichever  are  shorter.
Buildings are being depreciated over 50 years.

On disposal,  costs and  accumulated  depreciation  are removed from the balance
sheet and gains (losses) are recognized in the statement of operations.

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of new software
products or the enhancement of existing  software  products for sale or license.
These  costs  are  capitalized  from  the  point  in  time  that   technological
feasibility has been established,  as evidenced by a working model or a detailed
working program  design,  to the point in time that the product is available for
general release to customers.

Capitalized  software  development  costs are amortized on a  product-by-product
basis over the ratio of current revenues to total  anticipated  revenues or on a
straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives of the products (no longer
than five  years),  using  whichever  method  yields the  greater  amortization,
beginning  with the release to the  customer.  Research  and  development  costs
incurred  prior to  establishing  technological  feasibility  and costs incurred
subsequent  to general  product  release to customers  are charged to expense as
incurred. The Company continually evaluates whether events or circumstances have
occurred  that  indicate  that  the  remaining  useful  life of the  capitalized
software  development  costs should be revised or that the remaining  balance of
such assets may not be recoverable. As of June 30, 1996 management believes that
no  revisions  to  the  remaining  useful  life  or  write-down  of  capitalized
development costs are required.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The  Company  recognizes  revenue  from the  usage of its  electronic  territory
management  systems  ratably  over  the  term of the  customer  agreements.  The
contract can include use of the software, maintenance,  support and related data
server/network  management  fees ("on-going  fees").  As part of providing these
services,  certain fees ("one-time  fees") relating to project scope and design,
application building and testing, loading and installation of user equipment and
training are  recognized  as revenues  when the service has been  completed  and
accepted by the customer.  Other special projects are recognized as revenue upon
completion of the project.

Revenue from market research and direct mail marketing is recognized on delivery
of  the  product.   Revenue  from  medical  professional  database  services  is
recognized ratably over the term of the contract.

Prebillings  for  products  that have not been  delivered  or for  services  not
rendered  are  classified  as  unearned  income  until the  earnings  process is
complete.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist  principally  of cash  balances,  marketable  securities and
trade  receivables.  The Company  invests its excess cash with major banks.  The
Company's   customer   base   principally   comprises   companies   within   the
pharmaceutical  industry.  The Company  maintains  reserves for potential credit
losses and such  losses  have been within  management's  expectations  given the
generally  strong credit ratings of the customers.  The Company does not require
collateral from its customers.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

The  balance  sheet  and  results  of   operations  of  the  Company's   foreign
subsidiaries  that operate  outside the United  States are measured  using local
currency as the functional currency.

Assets and  liabilities  have been  translated into United States dollars at the
rates  of  exchange  at the  balance  sheet  date.  Revenues  and  expenses  are
translated  into United  States  dollars at the average  rate during the period.
Translation  gains and losses  arising from the use of differing  exchange rates
from year to year are included in the cumulative  translation  adjustment on the
balance sheet.

Transaction  gains and losses are  recognized  in the statement of operations as
incurred. For the years presented, these amounts were not material.

INCOME TAXES

Federal, foreign and state income taxes in the consolidated financial statements
have been  computed on a  stand-alone  return basis  according to the fiscal and
legal structure under which the various  tax-paying  entities operate.  Deferred
income  taxes are  recorded to reflect the tax  consequences  on future years of
differences  between  the tax  basis of assets  and  liabilities  and  financial
reporting amounts at each year-end.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity dates of three
months  or  less  from  the  date  of  acquisition  by the  Company  to be  cash
equivalents.

INVESTMENTS

The  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities" (SFAS 115),
in fiscal  year 1995.  The  adoption  resulted  in a decrease  in  stockholders'
deficit of $2.1 million.  In  accordance  with SFAS 115,  prior years  financial
statements were not restated to reflect the change in accounting method.

Management determines the appropriate  classification of its investments in debt
and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determination
at each balance sheet date.  Debt securities for which the Company does not have
the intent or ability to hold to maturity are  classified as available for sale,
along with any investment in equity  securities.  Securities  available for sale
are carried at fair  value,  as  determined  by the quoted  market  value at the
balance sheet date, with the unrealized gains and losses,  net of tax,  reported
in a separate  component of stockholders'  equity. At June 30, 1996, the Company
had no investments that qualified as trading or held to maturity.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Earnings  (loss) per share is  computed  using the  weighted  average  number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding.  Common equivalent shares from stock options
and  warrants  (using the  treasury  stock  method)  have been  included  in the
computation  when dilutive except that,  pursuant to the Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting  Bulletin,  all stock options and warrants issued by
the Company at an  exercise  price below the public  offering  price  during the
twelve-month period prior to the offering have been included in the calculations
as if they were  outstanding for all periods  presented using the treasury stock
method and the IPO price of $12.00.  Common equivalent shares from the Preferred
Stock  (using the  if-converted  method)  have been  included for all periods in
which the Preferred shares were outstanding.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities,  the  disclosure  of
contingent assets and liablities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported  amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting  period.  Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the fiscal 1995 financial  statements have been  reclassified
to conform to fiscal 1996 presentation.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying value of certain of the Company's financial  instruments  including
cash and cash  equivalents,  accounts  receivable,  accounts  payable  and other
accrued liabilities approximates fair value due to their short maturities. Based
on  borrowing  rates  currently  available to the Company for loans with similar
terms,  the carrying value of its capital lease  obligations  approximates  fair
value.

2.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - SOURCE BUSINESS
- ---------------------------------------------

In  conjunction  with the IPO, the Company  spun off the Source  Business to its
stockholders (the "Spin-Off") as of April 16, 1996. The Source Business provides
a  range  of  data  services,  primarily  based  on a  proprietary  database  of
prescriptions  dispensed in the United States,  which are used by pharmaceutical
companies  in  sales  force  compensation,  territory  realignment  and  focused
promotion.  The Source  Business is currently  developing  similar  databases in
major European markets. The Spin-Off was accomplished by the distribution of all
the issued and outstanding capital stock of Source International Inc., a holding
company formed for purposes of the Spin-Off.

                                      F-10


<PAGE>




Pursuant to the amendments to the Preferred  Stock, at the time of the Spin-Off,
one-half  of the shares of the  Company's  Preferred  Stock were  exchanged  for
shares of Preferred Stock of Source having substantially similar terms. Based on
the relative fair value of Walsh and Source,  $11,802,000  of obligations of the
Preferred Stock were transferred to the newly issued Source Preferred Stock. The
Company also contributed the  Pharmaceutical  Marketing  Services Inc.  ("PMSI")
shares;  certain other corporate  assets of the Company with a carrying value of
$1,250,000;  the  identifiable  net  liabilities  of the Source  business in the
amount of $4,124,000 and $5,182,000 of cash to consumate the Spin- Off.

The  remaining  issued and  outstanding  Preferred  Stock after the Spin-Off was
converted  into  1,486,252  shares  of  Common  Stock   concurrently   with  the
consummation of the offering.

The results of operations of Source have been  reclassified  to identify them as
discontinued  operations.  The  summarized  data for Source  through the date of
Spin-Off, is as follows:

The gain on disposal of the Source Business in the years ended June 30, 1994 and
1995 represents the sale of part of the Source segment (the targeting  business)
in Belgium and the Netherlands to PMSI. The sale resulted in a profit before tax
of  $6,100,000  of  which  $2,850,000  has  been  deferred  in  respect  of  the
Netherlands  where the purchase price is repayable if certain profit targets are
not achieved.  A portion of the gain was also deferred as a result of accounting
for PMSI under the equity method.  In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995 a gain
of $1,322,000 was recorded from the sale of these businesses. This has arisen as
a  result  of the  amortization  of a  portion  of the  deferred  gain  from the
Netherlands  plus the recognition of the deferred gain as a result of accounting
for the  investment  in PMSI using the cost method.  The loss on disposal in the
year ended June 30, 1996 included  losses  generated by the Source Business from
January  1,  1996  through  the  date of the  Spin-Off  of  $471,000  net of the
recognition  of the deferred gain from the  Netherlands  in the period up to the
date of the Spin-Off.

3.  TRANSACTIONS WITH SOURCE
- ----------------------------

In  connection  with the  Spin-off,  Walsh and Source have  entered into several
ageements:

PREFERRED  TECHNOLOGY  PARTNER  AGREEMENT.  Walsh  and  Source  have  created  a
preferred  technology  partnership  whereby the companies  collaborate to build,
maintain  and  promote  a  seamless  data  interface  between  their  respective
technologies to facilitate delivery by means of Premiere of prescription data at
the sales representative level. No compensation is payable under this agreement.

PHARBASE  LICENSE.  Walsh has granted to Source a  non-exclusive  license to its
Pharbase medical professional databases in certain European countries. Source is
allowed  to use  the  Pharbase  databases  only  for  internal  purposes  and in
connection with the development, delivery and marketing of its prescriber-linked
prescription  databases.  The initial term of the license runs for ten years and
the license is renewable for two additional  five-year terms.  Source has agreed
to provide Walsh with all updating  information which it receives with regard to
medical professionals,  their specialties,  affiliations and locations generated
as a result of the use of Pharbase by Source. Source has agreed to pay $1.00 per
prescriber  in the  database  universe  in the first year of  prescription  data
collection in a particular  market.  In consideration of Source's  obligation to
provide updating  information to Walsh, such fee will be reduced to $0.75 in the
second year,  $0.50 in the third year and $0.25 per  prescriber  thereafter.  In
addition,  Source has agreed to pay Walsh 75% of the list price of the  Pharbase
service for each Source  client to which it delivers  prescriber-level  data and
which does not have a current Pharbase license.

TRANSITIONAL  SERVICES  ARRANGEMENTS.  The Company and Source have  entered into
certain  transitional   services  arrangements  relating  to  the  provision  of
management  services and the sharing of facilities.  The Chief Financial Officer
and the General Counsel of Walsh are, for a transitional period of approximately
six  months  after the  Spin-Off,  providing  certain  services  to  Source.  In
addition,  the Chief Executive Officer of Walsh is made available to Source as a
consultant.  Such  officers  will provide  services to Source only to the extent
that they are not inconsistent with their duties to the Company, and the Company
expects that these  officers will devote at least 80% of their  business time to
Walsh during this transition  period. The Chief Executive Officer of Source, who
serves as the Chairman of Source,  will be made  available  as a  consultant  to
Walsh. To permit some

flexibility  for the Company in securing new office space in the United  States,
Source will sublet to the Company,  for an interim period, the space the Company
currently occupies within the Source Business facilities.

4.  INVESTMENTS
- ---------------

On July 1, 1993 the Company  owned 21% of the Common Stock of PMSI, a company it
had formed in 1991. The Company reduced its investment to 19% during fiscal 1994
and recorded a gain of $2,420,000  relating to these  transactions.  The Company
continued to account for its investment in PMSI under the equity method.

In May 1995, the Company reduced its holdings in PMSI to  approximately  9% and,
accordingly,  changed its method of accounting for its investment to comply with
SFAS 115 effective from the date of the transaction. The Company recorded a gain
of $402,000 relating to the sale of PMSI shares. At June 30 1995, the marketable
securities  (shares of PMSI stock)  constitute  equity  securities and have been
categorized as available-for-sale.  Available-for-sale  securities are stated at
fair market value,  with unrealized gains or losses,  net of tax,  reported as a
separate  component of  stockholders'  deficit.  At April 16, 1996,  the Company
contributed the PMSI shares to Source as part of the Spin- Off.

On January 25, 1996, the Company entered into a Joint Venture  Agreement with an
affiliate of Zuellig Pharma S.A., pursuant to which the parties have established
a joint venture for the commercialization of the Company's PRECISE, Premiere and
Pharbase services in 12 countries in Asia-Pacific. The joint venture company has
been  formed in  Singapore.  Walsh owns 51% of the  equity  and has  operational
control of the joint  venture.  As such, the Company has included the results of
operations  of the joint  venture in its  consolidated  statement of  operations
since January 25, 1996.

the relative  fair market values of the Walsh Common Stock and the Source common
stock as of such date.  As such,  the ratio of the exercise  price per option to
the market value per share has not been reduced.  The vesting provisions and the
option period of the original  grant have not been affected by the amendments to
the exercise price.

At June 30,  1996 there were  available  for U.S.  federal  income tax  purposes
operating loss carryforwards of approximately  $20,995,000 expiring in the years
2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011 which may provide future tax benefits for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. If the Spin-Off does not qualify as a tax-free distribution
pursuant to Section 355 of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986,  as amended,  the
Company would be required to utilize  substantially all of these U.S.  operating
loss  carryforwards to offset income deemed to be realized by the Company in the
Spin-Off.

At June 30, 1996 there were available for foreign income tax purposes  operating
loss   carryforwards   of  approximately   $15,831,000.   These  operating  loss
carryforwards may provide future tax benefits totalling $6,487,000,  expiring as
follows: 1997, $349,000;  1998, $175,000;  1999, $550,000; 2000, $784,000; 2001,
$795,000 and thereafter $3,834,000.

U.S.  income  taxes  have not been  provided  at June 30,  1996,  on  unremitted
earnings  aggregating  $13,567,000  of  entities  located  outside of the United
States,  as such earnings are  considered to be  permanently  invested.  If such
earnings  were to be  remitted  without  offsetting  tax  credits  in the United
States, withholding taxes would be approximately $1,460,000.

Included within accounts  payable is $2,168,000 and $3,745,000 of current income
taxes payable for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively.

(1)      The Common Stock equivalents consist of stock options, warrants and the
         Series A Convertible  Preferred Stock.  Common  equivalent  shares from
         convertible  preferred stock (using the if- converted method) and stock
         options  and  warrants  (using the  treasury  stock  method)  have been
         included in the computation when dilutive (except that, pursuant to the
         Securities  and Exchange  Commission  rules,  the Series A  Convertible
         Preferred  Stock which was  converted  into Common Stock in  connection
         with the Company's  initial public offering is included as if converted
         at  the  original  date  of  issuance  even  though  inclusion  may  be
         anti-dilutive).  Pursuant to the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission
         Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  all common and  common  equivalent  shares
         issued by the  Company at an exercise  price below the public  offering
         price during the  twelve-month  period prior to the offering  have been
         included in the calculation as if they were outstanding for all periods
         presented  (using the  treasury  stock  method and the  initial  public
         offering price of $12.00 per share).

         Had all common stock  equivalents  been factored into the fully diluted
         calculations  for all years  presented,  the common  stock  equivalents
         would  increase  by  255,000,  305,000  and 0 for 1994,  1995 and 1996,
         respectively  and would  have  resulted  in fully  diluted  net  (loss)
         earnings  per share of  $(1.54);  $(0.59)  and $0.04 in 1994,  1995 and
         1996, respectively.
