PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
FactSet Research Systems Inc. (the "Company" or "FactSet") supplies global
economic and financial data to analysts, investment bankers and other
financial professionals. The Company combines more than 100 databases from
multiple suppliers into a single online source of information and analytics,
including fundamental data on tens of thousands of American and international
companies and securities.
FactSet acquires financial information from over 40 database vendors. The
Company seeks to maintain contractual relationships with a minimum of two
database providers for each type of financial data, when possible. Charges
for data are either billed directly to FactSet or its clients. Data fees
charged to FactSet are on a fixed or royalty (per client) fee basis. Database
vendor contracts are generally renewable annually and can be cancelled on one
year's notice. Many of the data providers are in direct competition with each
other and in some cases, with FactSet. FactSet is a major distributor for
many of the databases included in the FactSet system.
FactSet's unique proprietary communication and software tools allow clients
to access the Company's mainframe centers and its aggregated data library
using a private wide area network. This network provides a direct, high-speed
data transmission link between the Company's mainframes and the client's
personal computer or computer network, while also ensuring security and
reliability. Clients connect to the network through a frame relay or Internet
connection. FactSet's clients are charged subscription fees on an annual
basis, allowing them unlimited access to the FactSet system through its
private wide area network.
Consulting, training and technical support are an integral part of FactSet's
service. FactSet's client support consultants strive to build lasting client
relationships. The Company is assisting clients in gaining a greater
knowledge of the FactSet system through its onsite training, twenty-four hour
technical support and building of custom applications and spreadsheets.
The financial information services industry has become a competitive market
known for its continuous significant technological advances. The industry
contains both large and well-capitalized companies, as well as smaller
competitors. Competitors in the United States and internationally include
news and information providers, market data suppliers and many of the
database providers that supply FactSet with financial data that is included
in the FactSet system. Direct competitors in the United States include
online, CD-ROM, and Internet database suppliers and integrators such as The
Thomson Corporation, FAME, COMPUSTAT PC Plus, a product of Standard & Poors,
a division of McGraw-Hill Co., and Multex.com Inc. Competitors in the
international markets include Datastream, owned by The Thomson Corporation,
and RIMES. Many of these competitors offer services or products similar to
those offered by the Company, which in some cases are at a lower price.
The Company believes that it has become very important to many financial
professionals to integrate and analyze a wide array of financial and economic
information from multiple databases. Without the ability to integrate
financial data from multiple sources, individual users must access and
retrieve data from many sources, often in varied formats, and manually
integrate the data to complete their task. During fiscal 2000, FactSet made
great strides in expanding its services to clients. Holdings-based and
returns-based analyses are being offered to investment managers. Investments
bankers have the opportunity to publish customized "pitch books" for
presentations that use the Microsoft Office Suite. Development of a real-time
pricing center has been completed which will merge both real-time and
historical data. The Online Assistant has been introduced which will deliver
helpful, timely product support right to the client's desktop. The Company
has also incorporated the Web into its future whereby key products are being
developed for the Web environment.

<PAGE>
Also during fiscal 2000, the Company completed its first acquisition,
Innovative Systems Techniques ("Insyte"), Inc., a provider of database
management and decision support systems. Clients will be able to store
multi-dimensional sets of data, such as portfolio holdings and company
fundamentals, as well as proprietary information. This acquisition
significantly enhances FactSet's data warehousing capabilities.
The number of employees of FactSet and its subsidiaries totaled 432 as of
August 31, 2000, up from 359 at August 31, 1999.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to financial risks
involving equity, foreign currency markets and interest rates.
During the past three fiscal years, the U.S. and European equity markets
achieved record highs. Through October 2000, major indices (Dow Jones 30
Industrials, Russell 2000, NASDAQ Composite, MSCI European Index) have
experienced significant declines from their calendar 2000 year-to-date highs.
Traditionally, the correlation between results of the Company's operations
and the performance of global equity markets has been very low. Nevertheless,
a prolonged decline in the various worldwide markets could negatively impact
a large number of the Company's clients (investment management firms and
investment banks) and increase the probability of personnel and spending
reductions among FactSet's existing and potential clients.
The fair value of the Company's investment portfolio at August 31, 2000 was
$22.7 million. The fair market value of the portfolio is expected to continue
to be minimally impacted by fluctuations in interest rates. The portfolio of
fixed income investments is managed to preserve principal. Under the
investment guidelines established by the Company, third-party managers
construct portfolios to achieve high levels of credit quality, liquidity and
diversification. The weighted average duration of short-term investments
included in the Company's portfolios is not to exceed 18 months. Investments
such as puts, calls, strips, short sales, straddles, options, futures or
investments on margin are not permitted by the Company's investment
guidelines. For these reasons, in addition to the fact that the Company has
no outstanding debt, financial exposure to changes in interest rates is
expected to continue to be minimal.
All investments are held in U.S. dollars and over 95% of the Company's
revenues are paid in U.S. dollars.
