NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Object Design,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated. In the opinion of management,
the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments, consisting only of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary
for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and
cash flows at the dates and for the periods indicated. While we believe that the
disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. 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 Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. Certain
reclassifications have been made for consistent presentation.
The results for the three months ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending
December 31, 1999.
B. Net Income Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the
number of common shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of all dilutive
securities, such as stock options. The following is a calculation of earnings
per share ("EPS") for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:

</TABLE>
Options to purchase 1,960,765 and 1,399,705 shares of common stock that were
outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively
were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share as the price
of the options was greater than the average market price of the common stock for
the period reported. The inclusion of these shares would have been
anti-dilutive.
C. Comprehensive Income
The table below sets forth comprehensive loss as defined by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:

D. New Accounting Standards
On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133). SFAS 133 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS 133 requires that all derivative instruments
be recorded on the balance sheet at their fair values. Changes in the fair
values of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other
comprehensive income, depending on whether or not a derivative is designated as
part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, depending on the type of hedge
transaction. We have not yet completed the evaluation of the impact of the
adoption of this new standard.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Report contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the current views
of management with respect to future events that will have an effect on our
future financial performance. These statements include the words "expect,"
"believe," "estimate," and similar expressions. Such statements are not
guarantees of future performance, and involve certain risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that could cause our future results to differ materially from those
expressed in any forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intent or
obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether in response
to new information, future events or otherwise. Important information about the
basis for those assumptions and factors that could cause our actual results to
differ materially from these forward-looking statements is contained in "Certain
Factors That May Affect Future Results" included in "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in our 1998
Annual Report on Form 10-K, which section is incorporated herein by reference.

<PAGE>
TOTAL REVENUES. Our total revenues increased slightly to $13.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 from $13.0 million for the same period for
1998 is reflecting a 29.8% increase in service revenues partially offset by an
11.3% decrease in software revenues.
SOFTWARE REVENUES. Software revenues decreased 11.3% to $8.2 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 from $9.2 million for the same period for
1998. The decrease was primarily due in part to the reassignment of certain
senior sales managers that took place in the first three months of 1999 and
salesforce turnover.
SERVICE REVENUES. Service revenues increased 29.8% to $4.9 million in 1999 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $3.8 million for the same period for
1998. The increase in services revenues primarily resulted from the increase in
support and maintenance service fees as a result of growth in our installed
base.
REVENUES FROM INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. Revenues from operations of our
international subsidiaries increased as a percentage of our total revenues, to
44% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared with 37% for the period
in 1998. The increase in revenues is due to increased services revenue,
primarily support and maintenance revenue.
COST OF SOFTWARE. Cost of software increased 15.2% to $418,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $363,000 for the same period for 1998
and increased as a percent of software revenues to 5.1% from 3.9% for the first
three months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase reflects amortization
of capitalized software costs related to our eXcelon product and also reflects
packaging costs associated with the release of eXcelon in March 1999.
COST OF SERVICES. Cost of services increased 14.5% to $3.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 from $2.6 million for the same period for 1998 and
decreased as a percent of service revenues to 60.9% from 69.0% for the
corresponding periods. The increase in cost of services reflects growth in
staffing necessary to generate and support increased worldwide service revenue
and to provide customer support to our installed base. The decrease as a
percentage of revenues reflects higher utilization of consulting personnel as
well as increased maintenance revenue, which has a higher margin.
SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses increased 14.5% to $8.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $7.0 million for the same
period for 1998 and increased as a percentage of total revenues to 60.9% from
53.5% for the same periods. The increase reflects the cost of hiring additional
sales and marketing personnel; the development of expanded sales distribution
channels, and an increase in promotional activities and marketing programs
primarily relating to our eXcelon product. We intend to continue to expand our
sales and marketing investment throughout 1999 and as a result expect selling
and marketing expenses to continue to increase in future periods.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased 27.8% to
$2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $1.9 million for the
same period for 1998 and increased as a percent of total revenues to 18.8% from
14.8% for the same periods. The increase was primarily due to increased staffing
and associated personnel-related costs as well as increased project
expenditures. We expect that research and development expenses will increase in
dollar amount in future periods as we continue to enhance our current product
offerings and to develop new products.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased 15.3%
to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $ 1.3 million in
1998 and increased as a percentage of total revenues to 11.7% from 10.2% for the
same periods. The increase in dollar amount reflects our increased staffing,
investments in information technology, professional expenses and other costs
associated with expanding operations.
OTHER INCOME. Other income increased 32.5%, to $265,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from $200,000 for the same period for 1998. The increase
was largely the result of increased cash balances and higher rates of return on
our cash and investments.
8
<PAGE>
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. Our effective tax rate of 10.7% for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 reflects an alternative minimum tax provision for federal
taxes and certain state and foreign taxes. This effective tax rate is lower than
the statutory rate principally due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 1999, our principal sources of liquidity included $24.2 million of
cash and marketable securities, a decrease of $0.5 million from December 31,
1998, and a $2.0 million revolving line of credit. The line of credit expires
May 31, 1999 and we expect to renew the line of credit at terms similar to the
existing agreement. No borrowings were outstanding under the line of credit
during the three months ended March 31, 1999, but letters of credit in the
amount of $450,000 under the line of credit were outstanding at that date.
Net cash provided by our operating activities was $224,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, as compared to $191,000 provided by operating activities
for the same period in 1998. The increase in cash provided was primarily due to
improvement in accounts receivable collections and increased deferred revenue
associated with prepaid maintenance fees, offset by a net loss in the first
three months of 1999.
Our investing activities provided $1.6 million of cash for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, as compared with cash used for our investing activities of
$2.2 million for the same period in 1998. The increase in cash provided was
attributable to the net sale of $2.1 million of marketable securities in 1999,
compared to the net purchase of $1.7 million of marketable securities in the
first three months of 1998.
Our financing activities used cash of $93,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, as compared to $302,000 of cash provided by financing activities
in 1998. The decrease was primarily due to the purchase of treasury shares in
1999 of $247,000 and proceeds from the repayment of advances to shareholders
in 1998 that was not repeated in 1999.
We believe that current cash, marketable securities, and funds generated from
operations, if any, will provide adequate liquidity to meet our capital and
operating requirements for the next twelve months.
YEAR 2000 COMPUTER SYSTEMS COMPLIANCE
Concerns have been widely expressed regarding the inability of certain computer
programs to process date information beyond the year 1999. These concerns focus
on the impact of the Year 2000 problem on business operations and the potential
costs associated with identifying and addressing the problem. We are continuing
to implement our Year 2000 readiness program according to the plan described in
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations included in our 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated
herein by reference. During the first quarter of 1999 we incurred costs,
excluding internal personnel time of less than $10,000 and we estimate that
another $100,000 to $200,000 will be required for our compliance effort during
1999.
EURO CONVERSION
On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union
established fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies
and the Euro making the Euro their common legal currency. The legacy currencies
are scheduled to remain legal tender in the participating countries as
denominations of the Euro between January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2002 (the
Transition Period). We are currently evaluating the business implications of
full conversion to the Euro. At this time, we do not believe that the conversion
to the Euro will have a material impact on our business during the Transition
Period.

<PAGE>
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 133
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS 133 requires that
all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their fair
values. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are recorded each period in
current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether or not a
derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, depending
on the type of hedge transaction. We have not yet completed the evaluation of
the impact of the adoption of this new standard.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposure as described
in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations included in our 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K and which description
is incorporated herein by reference.
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the
ordinary course of business. We currently believe that resolving these matters
will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial
statements.
