NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
- --------
Planning Sciences International plc ("the Company") is incorporated in the
United Kingdom. The Company develops, markets and supports high performance
client/server decision support software for business planning and decision
making. Its principal product is marketed under the name Gentia.
Basis of Presentation
- ---------------------
The consolidated financial statements are stated in United States dollars and
are prepared under United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Interim Financial Information
- -----------------------------
The financial information at March 31, 1996 and for the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995 are unaudited but include all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position at such date and the operating results
and cash flows for those periods. Results of the three month period ended March
31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the
entire year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1995 has
been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange
Commission Rules and Regulations. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 included in the
Company's Prospectus filed April 30, 1996.
Principles of Consolidation
- ---------------------------
The accompanying financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company
and its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Foreign Exchange
- ----------------
The consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its foreign subsidiaries are
translated from their respective functional currencies to United States dollars
at period-end exchange rates and the statements of operations and cash flows at
average rates for the relevant periods. Gains and losses resulting from
translation are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Net
gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions, which are not
material in any of the reporting periods, are included in the consolidated
statement of operations.

(UNAUDITED)
Per Share Information
- ---------------------
Net income per share information is computed based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding and dilutive share equivalents of outstanding share
options using the treasury stock method. Net income per share is based upon the
weighted average number of shares and equivalent shares outstanding during the
period. Equivalent shares consist of share options and are excluded for the
computation if their effect is anti-dilutive except that, pursuant to the
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Account Bulletins, shares and
equivalent shares issued during the twelve month period ended March 12, 1996
have been included in the calculation as if they were outstanding for all
periods through December 31, 1995 (using the treasury stock method for the
options at the initial public offering price).
Reorganization of Share Capital
- -------------------------------
Effective on April 29, 1996 the Company reorganized its authorized and issued
share capital as follows: its Deferred shares of 5p each and its "B" shares of
5p each were converted into "A" shares of 5p each and all of its "A" shares of
5p each were consolidated and redesignated as Ordinary shares of 15p each on the
basis of one Ordinary share for every three "A" shares. All shares and
references thereto in these financial statements have been restated to show the
effect of this reorganization.
2 INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On April 30, 1996 the Company completed its initial public offering of 3,000,000
American Depositary Shares, representing 3,000,000 Ordinary shares at US$16.00
per share, of which 2,000,000 shares were sold by the Company and 1,000,000
shares were sold by selling shareholders. The Company received proceeds of
approximately US$29.7 million from the IPO, net of issuance costs.
3 LITIGATION
The Company is involved in one legal action arising in relation to patents in
the U.S. While the outcome of this matter is currently not determinable, it is
management's opinion that this matter will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of its operations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.
Revenues
- --------
Revenues were $5.2 million in the 3 months ended March 31, 1996, an increase of
36% compared to revenues of $3.8 million for the 3 months ended March 31, 1995.
License revenues were $3.3 million in the 3 months ended March 31, 1996, an
increase of 29% over license revenues of $2.6 million for the 3 months ended
March 31, 1995. Services and other revenues were $1.9 million in the 3 months
ended March 31, 1996, an increase of 52% compared to $1.2 million for the 3
months ended March 31, 1995. The increase in revenues reflected both increased
sales of the Company's Gentia product as well as increased consulting and
maintenance services related thereto.
Gross Profit
- ------------
Gross profit was $4.1 million or 78% for the 3 months ended March 31, 1996,
compared to $3.0 million or 78% for the 3 months ended March 31, 1995.
Sales and Marketing
- -------------------
Sales and marketing costs were $2.1 million in the 3 months ended March 31,
1996, an increase of 38% compared to $1.5 million in the 3 months ended March
31, 1995. The increase in dollar expenditure reflects the Company's increased
investment in its sales and marketing organization. The Company expects these
expenses will continue to increase as a result of its continued investment in
its sales and marketing organization.
Research and Development
- ------------------------
Research and development costs were $597,000 in the 3 months ended March 31,
1996, an increase of 58% compared to $379,000 in the 3 months ended March 31,
1995. The increase is primarily as a result of hiring additional personnel to
continue the Company's development program. The Company's research and
development centre is located in Ipswich, England and related expenditure was
therefore incurred predominantly in pounds sterling.
General and Administrative
- --------------------------
General and administrative costs were $885,000 in the 3 months ended March 31,
1996, an increase of 28% compared to $694,000 in the 3 months ended March 31,
1995. The Company expects general and administrative expenditures to increase in
absolute dollar terms in 1996.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. (Continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company has funded its operations from its operational cash flows, bank
facilities and a $1 million private placement of equity in September 1995. The
Company has a bank credit line of $500,000 in the United States and a bank
overdraft facility of approximately $925,000 ((pound)600,000) in the United
Kingdom none of which was outstanding at March 31, 1996. The bank overdraft
facility, which is repayable on demand, is collateralized by the assets of the
Company. Borrowing under the credit line, which expires in September 1996, would
be collateralized by the U.S. assets of the Company.
Accounts receivable at March 31, 1996 were $5.0 million, an increase of 25%
compared to December 31, 1995 reflecting the continuing growth of the Company's
business. Prepaid expenses increased from $381,000 at December 31, 1995 to $1.4
million at March 31, 1996, primarily due to expenditure incurred in relation to
the initial public offering of the Company.
Other Income (expenses)
- -----------------------
Other expenses were $2,000 in the 3 months ended March 31, 1996 compared to
$49,000 in the 3 months ended March 31, 1995. The reduction was primarily due to
a significant reduction in interest costs due to the Company's increased
profitability and reduced use of bank facilities.

Planning Sciences reports record results
for first quarter 1996
Boston, MA, May 17, 1996 -- Planning Sciences International plc, (NASDAQ:
PLNSY), a market leader in Enterprise Decision Support systems, today announced
record financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 1996. Revenues
have grown to $5.2 million from $3.8 million in the equivalent period last year.
Income before provision for taxes has risen by 43.5% to $0.5 million. Earnings
per share (fully diluted) were $0.04 per share compared to $0.03 per share in
the equivalent period last year.
These results reflect continued, strong demand for the company's Gentia
Enterprise OLAP software and its ancillary services. First quarter revenues in
1996 exceeded fourth quarter revenues in 1995, which were $4.4 million, an
increase of 18.1%.
"These excellent first quarter results indicate the sustained growth Planning
Sciences is experiencing," said Paul Rolph, chairman and chief executive officer
of Planning Sciences. "It is particularly pleasing to report such strong revenue
growth in the first quarter of 1996, which reflects the leading role Gentia is
now playing in many Enterprise OLAP solutions world-wide."
