2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Basis of Presentation

   The accompanying financial statements and notes do not include all of the
   disclosures made in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 1996,
   which should be read in conjunction with these statements.  The financial
   information included herein, has not been audited.  However, in the
   opinion of Management, the statements include all adjustments necessary for a
   fair presentation of the quarterly results.  All adjustments made to these
   financial statements were considered to be of a normal and recurring nature.
   The results for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1996 are
   not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal
   year.

   Risks and Uncertainties

   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 and disclosures of
   contingent assets and liabilities 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 and would impact future
   results of operations and cash flows.

4. NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

   Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
   average number of shares of common stock outstanding and, if dilutive, common
   stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents include shares issuable upon the
   exercise of stock options or warrants, net of shares assumed to have been
   purchased with the proceeds. In accordance with Securities and Exchange
   Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83, all common and common equivalent
   shares issued during the twelve month period prior to the initial public
   offering ("cheap stock"), have been included in the calculation as if they
   were outstanding for all periods prior to the initial public offering ("IPO")
   using the treasury stock method and the assumed IPO price of $14.50 per
   share.

   Fully diluted net income per common share is the same as primary net income
   per common share for the period.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Revenue.  The Company's revenue consists of license fees for its CMS family of
PDM software products and fees for professional services and software
maintenance.  Revenue for the three and six month periods ended September 30,
1996 increased 1.1% and 34.3%, respectively, to $2,294,000 and $5,764,000 from
$2,268,000 and $4,293,000 in the comparable periods of fiscal 1996.

International revenue decreased 69.9% and 64.4%, respectively, to $279,000 and
$518,000 for in the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1996
from $926,000 and $1,456,000 for in the comparable periods of fiscal 1996.
These decreases were primarily due to non-recurring license fees received from
Hitachi, Ltd. in connection with a source code license that amounted to $913,000
and $1,380,000 for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1995.

Software license revenue decreased 28.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 to
$1,220,000 from $1,694,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996. The revenue
decline resulted from a decrease in international revenue as well as a
lengthening of the sales cycle for several major account opportunities. For the
six month periods ended September 30, 1996, software license revenue increased
18.6% to $3,781,000 from $3,187,000 for the six month period ended September 30,
1995. This revenue increase resulted primarily from an increase in the number of
new customers licensing the Company's software in the first quarter of fiscal
1997 as well as continuing orders from existing customers.

Maintenance and services revenue increased 87.1% and 79.3% for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, to $1,074,000 and $1,983,000 from
$574,000 and $1,106,000 for the comparable periods of fiscal 1996.  These
increases resulted primarily from an increase in the number of customers under
maintenance as well as a general increase in the number of customers and a
corresponding an increase in usage of the Company's professional services.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit.  The Company's cost of software license
revenue consists primarily of royalties payable upon the license of products for
which another party is entitled to receive compensation, as well as costs
associated with media, packaging, documentation and delivery of the Company's
product.  Gross profit associated with software license revenue for the second
quarter of fiscal 1997 was $1,145,000 or 93.9% of software license revenue
versus $1,643,000 or 97.0% of software license revenue in the second quarter of
fiscal 1996.  For the six months ended September 30, 1996, gross profit from
software license revenue was $3,636,000 or 96.2% of software license revenue
compared with $2,987,000 or 93.7% for the same period of fiscal 1996.  These
changes result primarily from the mix of products sold during each of the
periods which required royalty payments to another party.

Cost of maintenance and services revenue consists primarily of personnel costs
for the Company's customer support and professional services organizations.  As
a result of increased revenue, the Company's gross profit on maintenance and
services revenue increased to $546,000 or 50.8% of maintenance and services
revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from $255,000 or 44.4% of
maintenance and service revenue in the same quarter of fiscal 1996.  For the six
months ended September 30, 1996, gross profit on the maintenance and services
revenue decreased to 49.0% from 51.6% of the associated revenue in the
comparable period of fiscal 1996.  This decrease is a reflection of the
Company's investment during the first quarter of fiscal 1997 in the development
and training of new personnel to expand the professional services organization.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Selling and Marketing.  Selling and marketing expenses increased 137.7% and
128.2% for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1996 to
$1,531,000 and $2,846,000 from $644,000 and $1,247,000, respectively for the
same periods of fiscal 1996. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of
revenue increased to 66.7% and 49.4% in the three and six months of fiscal 1997
from 28.4% and 29.0% in the same periods of fiscal 1996.  These increases
resulted primarily from additional employees in the sales and marketing
organizations and costs incurred as a result of an increase in marketing
programs.  In addition, international selling expenses increased due to the
costs associated with running establishment of three subsidiaries
which the company has recently established in Europe.

Research and Development.  Research and development expenses increased 55.8% in
the second quarter of fiscal 1997 to $1,122,000 from $720,000 in the second
quarter of fiscal 1996.  For the six month period, research and development
expenses increased 47.5% to $2,067,000 in fiscal 1997 from $1,401,000 in fiscal
1996.  Research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to
48.9% and 35.9% in the three and six months of fiscal 1997 from 31.7% and 32.6%
in the same periods of fiscal 1996.  These increases in fiscal 1997 resulted
primarily from employment of additional staff and independent contractors to
develop and enhance the Company's products, expand the integration of its
products with other applications and provide quality assurance.

General and Administrative.  In the three and six month periods of fiscal
1997, general and administrative expenses increased 73.3% and 51.3%,
respectively, to $338,000 and $572,000 from $195,000 and $378,000 in the same
periods of fiscal 1996.  As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative
expenses increased to 14.7% and 9.9% for the three and six month periods of
fiscal 1997 from 8.6% and 8.8% for each of the same periods of the previous
year.  These increases resulted primarily from the employment of additional
staff and other expenses in support of the Company's increased level of
operations as well as additional administrative expenses attributable to the
Company's status as a public company.

Interest Income, (Net). Interest income, (net) consists of interest earned on
cash and cash equivalents, offset by interest expense associated with equipment
financing. Interest income for the period increased $453,000 and $930,000 versus
the same periods in fiscal 1996 due to higher cash and cash equivalent balances
as a result of the Company's initial public offering.

Provision for Income Taxes.  For the six months ended September 30, 1996, the
provision for income taxes increased to $40,000 from $14,000 for the same period
of fiscal 1996.  The effective tax rate was 44.0% and 2.5% in the six month
periods of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively.   The provision for taxes results
primarily from taxable income in the Company's foreign subsidiaries as well as
estimated minimum taxes due for state and federal purposes.

The Company has available net operating loss carryforwards of $3,298,000 which
it may use to offset future federal taxable income.  As of September 30, 1996,
management of the Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence as
required by Financial Accounting Statement No. 109, impacting the realizability
of the deferred tax assets which consist principally of net operating loss and
tax credit carryforwards.  Due to the uncertainty of the realization of deferred
tax assets, a full valuation allowance has been recorded.  Management
reevaluates this position on a quarterly basis.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Cash and equivalents at September 30, 1996 decreased $783,000 to $40,176,000
from $40,959,000 at March 31, 1996. This decrease resulted primarily from cash
expended for purchases of property and equipment during the six month period
which in prior periods were acquired under capital leases rather than for cash.
Working capital decreased $383,000 to $39,042,000 at September 30, 1996 from
$39,425,000 at March 31, 1996.

The Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalent balances will be
sufficient to meet its cash requirements for at least the next year.


CERTAIN RISK FACTORS
- --------------------

The Company does not provide forecasts of the future financial performance of
the Company.  However, from time to time information provided by the Company or
statements made by its employees may contain "forward looking" information that
involves risks and uncertainties.  In particular, statements contained in this
Form 10-Q which are not historical facts constitute forward looking statements
and are made under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.   The Company's actual results of operations and
financial condition have varied and may in the future vary significantly from

following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in or implied by forward looking statements
contained or incorporated by reference in this report and presented by
management from time to time.  Such factors, among others, may have a material
adverse effect upon the Company's business, results of operations and financial
conditions.

Limited Operating History; Losses; Accumulated Deficit; Increased Expenses. The
Company was founded in May 1992 and commenced shipment of its initial products
at that time. Accordingly, the Company has only a limited operating history upon
which an evaluation of its business and prospects can be based. Although the
Company was profitable for fiscal year 1996, the Company had not been profitable
in any prior fiscal year since its inception. As of March 31, 1996, the Company
had an accumulated deficit of $3,692,000. Because of the limited history of
profitability, the limited operating history and the uncertainty of future
results of the Company, there can be no assurance as to the Company's continued
profitability.  Accordingly, management currently believes that it is more
likely than not that the Company will not be able to use its tax loss carry
forwards prior to their expiration in 2010.  In addition, the Company has
increased, and plans to increase further, its operating expenses in order to
fund research and development, increase its sales and marketing efforts and
broaden its customer support capabilities. To the extent that increases in such
expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by increased revenues, the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition will be materially
adversely affected.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results. The Company's quarterly operating
results have in the past varied from the expectations of public market
analysts and investors and may in the future may vary significantly depending
on a number of factors, including the timing of the introduction or enhancement
of products by the Company or its competitors, the size, timing and shipment of
individual orders, market acceptance of new products, seasonality of revenue
particularly international revenue, customer order deferrals in anticipation
of new products, changes in the Company's operating expenses, personnel changes,
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, mix of products and services sold,
changes in product pricing including price discounting in response to
competing product introductions, development of the Company's direct and
indirect distribution channels and general economic conditions. In the past, the
Company has received large orders from customers that have represented a
significant portion of the Company's revenue for a particular quarter or fiscal
year. For example, orders from Case Corporation accounted for 18.6% of the
Company's total revenue for the six month period ended September 30, 1996,
orders from Whirlpool Corporation accounted for 10.4% of the Company's total
revenue for fiscal 1995 and orders from Hitachi, Ltd. represented 17% of the
Company's total revenue for fiscal 1996. The Company believes that quarter-to-
quarter comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful
and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. Sales
cycles for the Company have increased in the past year and the Company
believes that as the PDM market matures and PDM products are adopted on a larger
scale, the sales cycles for the Company's products will continue to may
increase, leading to increased potential for quarterly fluctuations. Due to the
foregoing factors, it is possible that in some quarters the Company's operating
results may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors.
In such event, the price of the Company's Common Stock would likely be
materially adversely affected.

Dependence on Principal Products. The Company currently derives substantially
all of its revenue from the licensing of its CMS product family and fees from
related services. These products and services are expected to continue to
account for substantially all of the Company's revenues for the foreseeable
future. As a result, any factor adversely affecting license sales of CMS or the
provision of such services would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the Company's
future results of operations will depend, in part, on achieving broader market
acceptance of these products and services, as well as on the Company's ability
to continue to enhance these products and services to meet the evolving needs of
its customers. A reduction in demand or increase in competition in the market
for PDM software, or a decline in sales of such products and services, could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition.

Management of Growth. The Company has recently experienced a period of rapid
growth that has placed a significant strain on its management and other
resources. The Company's ability to manage its growth will require it to
continue to improve its operational, financial and management information
systems, and to motivate and effectively manage its employees. If the Company's
management is unable to manage growth effectively, the quality of the Company's
products, its ability to identify, hire and retain key personnel and its results
of operations could be materially adversely affected.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Competition. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors
affecting its market include product features and functionality, such as
flexibility, scalability, ease of integration, ease of implementation, ease of
use, quality, performance, price and total cost of ownership; customer service
and support; company reputation and financial viability; and effectiveness of
sales and marketing efforts. Although the Company believes that it currently
competes effectively with respect to such factors, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to maintain its competitive position against
current and potential competitors.

New Products and Rapid Technological Change. The PDM software market is
characterized by rapid technological change, changes in customer requirements,
frequent new product introductions and enhancements, disparate implementation
strategies and emerging industry standards. The introduction of products
embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can
render existing products obsolete and unmarketable. Accordingly, the lifecycles
of the Company's products are difficult to estimate. The Company's future
success will depend in part upon its ability to enhance its current products and
to develop and introduce new products that respond to evolving customer
requirements and keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry
standards, such as new operating systems, hardware platforms, user interfaces
and third-party applications software. The Company has accordingly made
significant investments and plans to make additional investments in increased
research and development efforts. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will be successful in developing and marketing product enhancements or
new products that respond to technological change, changes in customer
requirements or emerging industry standards. The Company has in the past
encountered delays in introductions of new products and there can be no
assurance that in the future; that the Company will not experience difficulties
that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and
marketing of additional products and enhancements; or that any new products or
enhancements that it may introduce will achieve market acceptance. The inability
of the Company, for technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new
products or enhancements in a timely manner would have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Risks Associated with International Operations. In fiscal 1996, the Company
organized subsidiaries in Germany and the United Kingdom and in fiscal 1997
established a subsidiary in Italy. International revenue represented
approximately 10.1%, 12.1% and 25.6% of the Company's total revenue during
fiscal 1994, fiscal 1995 and fiscal 1996, respectively (including, for fiscal
1996, approximately 17% of revenue from a one-time order from Hitachi, Ltd.).
International operations are subject to a number of risks, including but not
limited to the following characteristics, including the maturity, breadth and
sophistication of the foreign market for the Company's products may vary
significantly from those of the domestic market; agreements may be difficult to
enforce and receivables difficult to collect through a foreign country's legal
system; foreign customers may have longer payment cycles; foreign countries
could impose additional withholding taxes or otherwise tax the Company's foreign
income, impose tariffs or adopt other restrictions on foreign trade;
fluctuations in exchange rates could affect product demand and could adversely
affect the profitability in U.S. dollars of services provided by the Company in
foreign markets to the extent that payment for the Company's services is made in
the local currency; U.S. export licenses may be difficult to obtain; and the
protection of intellectual property in foreign countries may be more difficult
to enforce. There can be no assurance that any of these factors will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Reliance on Certain Relationships.  The CMS product family has been integrated
with a number of widely-used desktop automation tools, including Parametric
Technology Corporation's Pro/ENGINEER, Mentor Graphics' Design Architect and
Boardstation products and Zuken, Inc.'s CR5000.  The Company's future success
will depend in part on its ability to develop versions of CMS that integrate
with other widely-used desktop automation tools.  Introduction and increased
market acceptance of desktop automation tools with which the Company's products
do not operate, or failure of the tools with which the Company's products do
operate to achieve continued market acceptance, could adversely affect the
market for the Company's products.  The Company also relies on relationships
with a number of desktop automation software vendors to provide the Company with
programming interfaces, product specifications, beta releases and other forms of
assistance to enhance the Company's product development efforts.  Many of these
relationships are informal working arrangements and are therefore not subject to
formal written agreements.  There can be no assurance that these companies, many
of which have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than the
Company, will not develop or market software products which compete with the
Company's products or will not otherwise discontinue their relationships with or
support of the Company.  While the Company does not consider itself dependent
upon any one of these informal relationships, the failure by the Company to
maintain its existing relationships with such vendors, or to establish new
relationships in the future, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

The Company licenses software from third parties which is incorporated into its
products.  These licenses expire periodically. In addition, the Company
generally does not have access to source code for the software supplied by these
third parties.  Certain of these third parties are small companies that do not
have extensive financial and technical resources.  If any of these relationships
were terminated or if any of these third parties were to cease doing business,
the Company might be forced to expend significant time and development resources
to replace the licensed software.  Such an event would divert resources from
the Company's ongoing development efforts and could have a material adverse
effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Risk of Product Defects; Development Delays.  Software products such as those
offered by the Company may contain defects or errors, especially when first
introduced or when new versions are released.  Although the Company conducts
extensive product testing, the Company has in the past released products that
contain defects, and has discovered software errors in certain of its new
products and enhancements after their introduction.  The Company's products are
typically intended for use in conjunction with applications that may be critical
to a customer's business.  As a result, the Company expects that its customers
and potential customers have a greater sensitivity to product defects than the
market for software products generally.  There can be no assurance that, despite
testing by the Company and by current and potential customers, errors will not
be found in new products or releases after commencement of commercial shipments,
resulting in loss of revenue or delay in market acceptance, diversion of
development resources, damage to the Company's reputation, or increased service
and warranty costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Dependence on Proprietary Technology.  The Company's success is dependent in
part upon proprietary technology.  The Company's software is licensed to
customers under license agreements containing provisions prohibiting the
unauthorized use, copying and transfer of the licensed program.  In addition,
the Company relies on a combination of trade secret, copyright and trademark
laws and non-disclosure agreements to protect its proprietary rights in its
software and technology.  There can be no assurance that such measures are or
will be adequate to protect the Company's proprietary technology.  The Company
has no issued or pending patents. In addition, there can be no assurance that
the Company's competitors will not independently develop technologies that are
substantially equivalent or superior to the Company's technology.  Although the
Company believes that its products and technology do not infringe on any
existing proprietary rights of others, there can be no assurance that third
parties will not assert infringement claims in the future.

Dependence on Key Personnel.  The Company's success depends to a significant
extent upon the continued service of its executive officers and other key
management, sales and technical personnel, and on its ability to continue to
attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.  The competition for such
employees is intense.  The Company has no long-term employment contracts with
any of its employees, and, with the exception of its founders and executive
officers, none of its employees are bound by non-competition agreements.  The
loss of the services of one or more of the Company's executive officers, sales
people, design engineers or other key personnel or the Company's inability to
recruit replacements for such personnel or to otherwise attract, retain and
motivate qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

Control by Executive Officers and Directors.  As of June 15, 1996, the Company's
directors and executive officers, together with entities associated with them,
beneficially owned approximately 35.3% of the outstanding Common Stock.  As a
practical matter, these stockholders, if acting together, may have the ability
to elect the Company's directors and to determine the outcome of corporate
actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how other stockholders
of the Company may vote.  This concentration of ownership may have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company and may have an
adverse effect on the price of the Company's Common Stock.
