                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To Comshare, Incorporated:

We have audited the accompanying special purpose statements of net assets to be 
sold of the COMSHARE, INCORPORATED RETAIL BUSINESS (as defined in Note 1) as of 
June 30, 1997 and April 30, 1998 and the related special purpose statements of 
operations to be sold and cash flows from operations to be sold for the years 
ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998. These 
financial statements are the responsibility of the Retail Business'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.

As discussed in Note 1, these financial statements were prepared to present the 
net assets to be sold of the Comshare, Incorporated Retail Business and the 
related operations to be sold and cash flows from operations to be sold and are 
not intended to be a complete presentation of the Retail Business's assets, 
liabilities, operations and cash flows.

In our opinion, the special purpose statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets to be sold of the Comshare, 
Incorporated Retail Business as of June 30, 1997 and April 30, 1998 and the 
related operations to be sold and cash flows from operations to be sold for the 
years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998 in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     COMSHARE, INCORPORATED RETAIL BUSINESS

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION.  The accompanying special purpose
financial statements of Comshare, Incorporated Retail Business (the "Retail
Business") relate to the retail business of Comshare, Incorporated and its
subsidiaries ("Comshare"). The accompanying special purpose statements have been
derived from the historical financial statements of Comshare based upon
assumptions and allocations management believe represent a reasonable basis for
presenting the historical financial position and results of operations and cash
flows from operations of the Retail Business.

The accompanying special purpose financial statements have been prepared in
connection with the proposed sale of the Retail Business by Comshare to JDA
Software Group, Inc. and JDA Arthur Software, Ltd. ("JDA").

The Retail Business's revenue consists of software license, software maintenance
and implementation, consulting and other service revenue. This revenue includes
the revenue related to the retail products that are to be sold to JDA and the
non-retail products to be licensed by JDA and sold to retail customers. Some of
the non-retail products that are to be licensed to JDA will require JDA to pay
a royalty to Comshare. Software license revenue is recognized when a customer
contract is fully executed and the software has been shipped. Software
maintenance revenue, whether bundled with a product license or priced
separately, is recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet when invoiced
and is recognized over the term of the maintenance contract. Implementation,
consulting and other services revenue is recognized as the services are
performed.

The accompanying financial statements of the Retail Business include allocations
of Comshare corporate expenses for items such as human resources, legal,
accounting and information technology of approximately $370,000, $650,000 and
$540,000 in fiscal years 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998,
respectively. Additionally, allocations of certain insurance, employee benefit
and other costs based upon overall programs administered by Comshare were
included in the accompanying financial statements. These expenses have been
allocated to the Retail Business based upon management estimates. Management
believes the allocation methodology is reasonable and the allocated costs are
comparable to those that the Retail Business would have incurred on a standalone
basis. The accompanying financial statements include a royalty expense of
approximately $550,000, $510,000 and $520,000 in fiscal years 1996 and 1997 and
the ten months ended April 30, 1998, respectively. Management believes that
these expenses represent the Retail Business's share of product development
costs related to the non-retail products that are to be licensed by JDA. No
product development costs for the non-retail products has been included in the
accompanying financial statements. The Retail Business's accompanying financial
statements do not include allocated expenses related to the corporate office and
officers. These costs totalled $4.3 million, $3.5 million and $3.8 million for
Comshare in fiscal years 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998,
respectively. Additionally, no allocation of the $6.2 million restructuring
charge in 1997 nor the $1.6 million unusual charge in 1998 were made to the
accompanying financial statements of the Retail Business. The Retail Business's
accompanying financial statements do not include an allocation of certain of
Comshare's assets and liabilities not specifically identified to the Retail
Business, including cash and debt. Other assets such as prepaid expenses and
property and equipment have been allocated to the Retail Business based upon
estimates made by management. The financial information included in the
accompanying financial statements may not necessarily reflect the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows from operations of the Retail
Business in the future.

The Retail Business develops, markets and supports, client/server decision
support applications software for the retail industry designed for business
analysis, planning, reporting and decision making. The Retail Business also
provides services such as maintenance, training, consulting and support
services. The Retail Business markets its products through a direct sales force
in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France and Germany and has a
distributor network in certain other countries.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (CONTINUED)



EXPENSE CLASSIFICATION.  Selling and marketing expense primarily includes
employee costs, travel costs, facilities expenses and advertising. Cost of
revenue and support includes personnel and other costs related to implementation
and consulting services revenue, customer support costs and royalty expense for
products licensed from others for use in the Retail Business's product
offerings. Internal research and product development expense includes all such
expense before computer software capitalization and amortization.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION.  All assets and liabilities of the Retail
Business's foreign operations are translated at current exchange rates and
revenue and expenses are translated at monthly exchange rates. Resulting
translation adjustments are reflected as a component of net assets.

COMPUTER SOFTWARE.  The costs of developing and purchasing new software products
and enhancements to existing software products are capitalized after
technological feasibility is established. The establishment of technological
feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs
require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external
factors, including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross product
revenue, estimated economic product lives and changes in software and hardware
technology. Beginning October 1, 1995, capitalized development costs were
amortized using the straight-line method over a two-year service life (see Note
2). Previously, capitalized development costs were amortized using a rolling
three-year method, effectively a service life of approximately six years. The
policy is reevaluated and adjusted as necessary at the end of each accounting
period. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the valuation and amortization
of capitalized development costs. As part of this review, the Retail Business
considers the value of future cash flows attributable to the capitalized
development costs in evaluating potential impairment of the asset.

DEPRECIATION.  The cost of depreciable assets is charged to operations on a
straight-line basis. Principal service lives for computers and other equipment
are three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the expected
life of the asset or term of the lease, whichever is shorter.

OTHER ASSETS.  In fiscal 1997, the Retail Business adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" which requires an
evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable. There was no adjustment to the Retail Business's financial
statements in fiscal 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998 as a result of
this evaluation.

INCOME TAXES.  The Retail Business operates as part of Comshare and the related
Comshare income tax assets and provision have not been allocated to the Retail
Business in the accompanying financial statements. Comshare accounts for income
taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Comshare does not provide a valuation
allowance against certain deferred tax assets as management believes that it is
more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized through
future taxable income or by using tax strategies currently available to
Comshare. As these strategies are not available to the Retail Business,
management has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax
assets.

                                  (CONTINUED)

STOCK PLANS. The Retail Business accounts for stock-based compensation using 
the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion 
(APB) No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related 
interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured 
as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at grant date 
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. As supplemental 
information, the Retail Business has provided pro forma disclosure of the fair 
value of stock options granted during fiscal years 1996 and 1997 and the ten 
months ended April 30, 1998 in accordance with the requirements of Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based 
Compensation." (See Note 5.)

SOFTWARE REVENUE RECOGNITION. The American Institute of Certified Public 
Accountants has issued Statement of Position 97-2 "Software Revenue 
Recognition" which establishes new guidance for recognizing revenue on software 
transactions. The Retail Business has not yet adopted this statement but is 
required to adopt this statement for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive 
Income" which establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its 
components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income is 
defined as the total of net income and all other nonowner changes in equity. 
The Retail Business has not yet adopted this statement but is required to adopt 
this statement for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999.

SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments 
of an Enterprise and Related Information" which establishes standards for 
disclosures of certain segment information based on the "management approach" 
which organizes segments within a company the way the chief operating decision 
maker of that company organizes the segments. The Retail Business has not yet 
adopted this statement but is required to adopt this statement for the fiscal 
year ending June 30, 1999.

USE OF ESTIMATES. 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 at 
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and 
expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

2. RESTRUCTURING AND UNUSUAL CHARGES

During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Retail Business recorded a $3,447,000 
non-cash charge to write off certain capitalized software. The write-off 
resulted from the Retail Business's acceleration of its product development 
cycles in response to changes in the technological environment in the decision 
support application software market.

The write-off reflected the reduction of the estimated useful service life of 
the Retail Business's products and the amortization period for its capitalized 
software costs, prompted by the Retail Business's acceleration of its product 
development cycle. The reduction of the software amortization period to two 
years and a review of projected revenues over this two-year service life 
resulted in the write-off of unamortized capitalized software development costs.

3.   EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

The Retail Business's employees participate in Comshare's Employee Stock 
Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") which was approved by the shareholders in November
1994. A total of 300,000 shares of the Comshare's common stock have been 
reserved for issuance under the ESPP. The ESPP allows participating employees 
to purchase shares of the Comshare's common stock through payroll deductions at 
85% of the lessor of fair market value at the beginning or end of each six 
month purchase period. Substantially all employees of the Retail Business are 
eligible to participate in the ESPP. Under the ESPP, 1,796 shares, 2,180 shares 
and 1,663 shares were issued in fiscal 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended 
April 30, 1998, respectively. See Note 5 for pro forma SFAS 123 expense.

4.   BENEFIT PLANS

The Retail Business's employees participate in Comshare's profit sharing plan 
covering substantially all United States employees. The profit sharing plan 
provides for a minimum annual Comshare contribution of 2% of an employee's 
salary, and matching contributions based on employee 401(k) contributions. 
Comshare contributions, other than the above, are discretionary and are 
determined by the Board of Directors of Comshare. The total contributions for 
the plan for the Retail Business employees were $154,000, $121,000 and $51,000 
in fiscal 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998, respectively.

Certain of the Retail Business's employees participate in benefit plans 
maintained by a Comshare subsidiary in the United Kingdom. These plans consist 
of a defined benefit plan for employees hired before January 1, 1994 and a 
defined contribution plan for employees hired after January 1, 1994. Effective 
April 1, 1997, the defined benefit plan was frozen, with no further 
contributions or benefits accruing under the plan. As of the same date, the 
defined contribution plan was amended, providing a minimum annual Comshare 
contribution of 2-1/2% of the employee's compensation, and matching 
contributions up to an additional 2-1/2% of compensation based on employee 
contributions. The defined contribution plan now covers substantially all 
United Kingdom employees. Prior to April 1, 1997, the defined contribution plan 
provided that participating employees contribute a minimum of 5% of their
pensionable salary with the Retail Business contributing 5%. The expense for
these plans, which was allocated to the Retail Business, was $105,000, $55,000
and $46,000 in fiscal 1996 and 1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998,
respectively.

5.   STOCK OPTIONS

Employees of the Retail Business are eligible to participate in Comshare's 
stock option plans. These plans provide for the grant of incentive stock 
options to officers and key employees. Options under the plans are granted at 
100% of market price on the date of the grant, and are exercisable at the rate 
of 25% per year after one year from the date of the grant and have a term of 
five years.

At April 30, 1998, Retail Business employees had 76,850 outstanding options and 
9,000 exercisable options with exercise prices ranging from $4.08 to $27.25.


                                      -8-

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (CONTINUED)


Using the intrinsic value method of accounting for the value of stock options
granted to Retail Business employees during fiscal 1996 and 1997, and the ten
months ended April 30, 1998, no compensation cost was recorded in the
accompanying statement of operations to be sold. Had compensation costs been
determined on the fair value at the date of grant for awards in fiscal 1996 and
1997 and the ten months ended April 30, 1998, consistent with the provisions of
SFAS 123, additional expense of $89,000, $206,000 and $435,000 would have been
recognized, respectively.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Because the SFAS 123 method of accounting
has not been applied to options granted prior to July 1, 1995, the resulting
pro-forma compensation cost may not be representative of that to be expected in
future years. The following weighted average assumptions were used in valuing
the option grants:

6.   LEASES

Comshare leases most of its office space, transportation and certain of its
equipment and noncancelable capital and operating leases. Initial lease terms
vary in length and several of the leases contain renewal options. The Retail
Business is not subject to these lease commitments although Comshare allocates a
portion of lease expense each year to the Retail Business. Total lease expense
allocated was $1,294,000 in fiscal 1996, $1,231,000 in fiscal 1997 and
$1,018,000 for the ten months ended April 30, 1998.

Unallocated expenses include $3,447,000 of unusual charges related to the 
write-off of capitalized software in fiscal 1996.

The presentation of information on a geographical basis requires the use of 
estimation techniques and does not take into account the extent to which the 
Retail Business's marketing and management skills are interdependent.

The Retail Business operates in one business segment: the development and 
marketing of computer software and related services.

No customer accounted for more than 5% of total revenues in the fiscal years 
ended June 30, 1996 and 1997. For the ten months ended April 30, 1998, one 
customer accounted for approximately 9% of total revenue.

8.  BORROWINGS

Comshare entered into a $10 million credit agreement on September 23, 1997 with
a bank which matures on October 1, 2000. Borrowings are secured by the accounts
receivable of Comshare. The accounts receivable of the Retail Business are
subject to this agreement.

9.  LITIGATION

The Retail Business is subject to certain litigation, being part of the business
operations of Comshare. Comshare was involved in the following significant
litigation:

Comshare and certain of its officers and directors are defendants in a
shareholder class action suit, In Re Comshare, Incorporated Securities
Litigation, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District
of Michigan. This suit was described in Item 3 of Comshare's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. On September 18, 1997 the
Court dismissed all of the claims. The plaintiffs have filed an appeal of the
dismissal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Comshare is
vigorously contesting the appeal.

                         PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION


      In June 1998, JDA Software Group, Inc. acquired the Comshare, Incorporated
Retail Business ("Arthur Retail") from Comshare, Incorporated, a Michigan
corporation, for $44 million pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated June
4, 1998 (the "Acquisition"). Arthur Retail is a leading provider of strategic
merchandise management software applications, including the Arthur and Boost
Sales and Margin Planning applications marketed to the retail and packaged goods
industries (collectively the "Arthur Enterprise Suite"). The purchase price was
determined through an arms-length negotiation between the parties, and was
allocated to the underlying assets, namely the intellectual property and other
intangibles related to the Arthur Enterprise Suite, based on the Company's
estimate of fair values and remaining economic lives. The excess of the purchase
price over the fair value of the assets is being amortized over a period of ten
years.

      The following unaudited consolidated pro forma statements of operations
combine the historical statements of income of JDA Software Group, Inc. and
Arthur Retail for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six months ended June
30, 1998, giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred at the
beginning of each period. The Acquisition is accounted for in the pro forma
financial information using the purchase method of accounting. A consolidated
pro forma balance sheet is not presented herein as the Acquisition has been
reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheet filed by the Company in
connection with its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30,
1998.

      The detailed assumptions used to prepare the pro forma financial
information are contained in the notes to the unaudited consolidated pro forma
financial information. Pro forma adjustments for the acquisition of Arthur
Retail are based upon preliminary estimates, available information and certain
assumptions that the management of the Company deems appropriate. Final
adjustments may differ from the pro forma adjustments presented herein. The
unaudited consolidated pro forma financial information does not purport to
represent the results of operations or the financial position of the Company
that actually would have resulted had the Acquisition occurred as of the dates
indicated, nor should it be taken as indicative of the future results of the
operations or future financial position of the Company.

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
                      (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


The following explanations describe the assumptions used in determining the pro
forma adjustments necessary to present the pro forma statements of operations of
the Company for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six months ended June
30, 1998.

The historical operating results shown for Arthur Retail for the year ended
December 31, 1997 include the historical Statement of Operations to be Sold of
Comshare, Incorporated Retail Business for the ten months ended April 30, 1998,
as adjusted by subtracting the operating results for the four months ended April
30,1998 and adding the operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Management believes the operating results, as adjusted, include all adjustments
and reclassifications necessary for a fair and comparable presentation with
historical results.

The historical operating results shown for Arthur Retail in the Pro Forma
Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 include the
historical Statement of Operations to be Sold of Comshare, Incorporated Retail
Business for the ten months ended April 30, 1998, as adjusted by subtracting the
operating results for the six months ended December 31, 1997 and adding
operating results for the month of May 1998. Accordingly, the historical
operating results shown for Arthur Retail represent the period from January 1,
1998 to June 4, 1998. The June 1998 operating results of Arthur Retail have been
included in the historical financial statements of JDA Software Group, Inc. from
the date of acquisition. Management believes the operating results, as adjusted,
include all adjustments and reclassifications necessary for a fair and
comparable presentation with historical results.

The pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and
six months ended June 30, 1998 do not include the effect of a $40 million
one-time charge for purchased in-process technology and related income tax
benefit of $16.2 million. In-process technology includes the value of products
acquired from Arthur Retail that were in the development stage and for which
technological feasibility had not been established. The Company does not believe
these products have any alternative future use.

The pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and
the six months ended June 30,1998 include the effect of the Company's
three-for-two stock split effected in the form of a 50% stock dividend that
occurred on July 17, 1998.

1.    Entry records the increase (decrease) in amortization expense arising from
      the purchase accounting adjustments as follows:

2.    Entry reverses the internally capitalized software on Arthur Retail. The
      Company's policy is to expense the costs to develop new software products
      and enhancements to existing software products until technological
      feasibility has been established. The Company believes its current

<PAGE>   19
      process for developing software is essentially completed concurrent with
      the establishment of technological feasibility, and accordingly, no costs
      are capitalized. The Company considers technological feasibility to have
      occurred when all planning, designing, coding and testing have been
      completed according to design specifications.


3.    Entry records the opportunity costs related to interest that would be
      forfeited on invested cash balances and additional interest expense that
      would be incurred on borrowings necessary to effect the Acquisition as of
      January 1, 1997 and January 1, 1998, as appropriate. The entry presumes
      the Company would utilize all but $1 million of its available cash
      balances as of those dates to effect the Acquisition.


4.    Entry reverses the one-time charge for purchased in-process technology and
      related income tax benefit recorded by JDA in connection with the
      Acquisition. The one-time charge is reflected in the historical operating
      results of JDA for the six months ended June 30, 1998.


5.    Entry records the income tax effect on the income of Arthur Retail and the
      purchase accounting adjustments at a blended rate of 40% for the year
      ended December 31, 1997 and six months ended June 30, 1998.
