                                     PART 1

ITEM 1. Business.

General

Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc.  develops,  markets and supports  fully  integrated,
Microsoft(R) Windows-based business application software for manufacturers.  Our
principal product, Made2Manage for Windows, referred to as "Made2Manage",  is an
enterprise-wide  business management system,  often referred to as an Enterprise
Resource  Planning,  or "ERP",  system.  During  1999 we adopted a  strategy  to
provide e-commerce  solutions for our target market. The result was m2mEport,  a
web site dedicated to the needs of small and mid size manufacturing enterprises,
which was  officially  launched  in March  2000.  Our  corporate  offices are in
Indianapolis,  Indiana,  and we have a subsidiary,  Bridgeware,  Inc.,  which we
acquired  during 1998.  Bridgeware  provides  advanced  planning and  scheduling
software.  Bridgeware is based in San Bruno,  California and has a subsidiary in
Israel. In October 1999, we incorporated  Made2Manage Systems, LTD, a subsidiary
in the  United  Kingdom;  however,  Made2Manage  Systems,  LTD did not  commence
business   during   1999.    Made2Manage    Systems'   web   site   address   is
www.made2manage.com.

Markets and Customers

Our target market consists primarily of small and midsize discrete manufacturers
with   annual   revenues   of  up  to  $100   million   that  are   engaged   in
engineer-to-order,  make-to-order,  assemble-to-order,  make-to-stock  and mixed
styles of production. Discrete manufacturers fabricate and assemble parts into a
finished product as distinguished from process manufacturers,  which combine raw
materials to create  finished  products.  Engineer-to-order  manufacturing  is a
subset of make-to-order where the product is expressly designed and manufactured
to  meet  a  customer's  unique  requirements,   often  as  a  "one-time"  item.
Make-to-order  manufacturing  involves  fabricating and assembling products that
are  either  standardized  or  that  meet a  customer's  unique  specifications.
Assemble-to-order   manufacturing  involves  assembling  products  that  meet  a
customer's unique specifications from standard,  or stock,  sub-component parts.
Make-to-stock refers to manufacturing in which standard products are fabricated,
assembled and placed in finished  goods  inventory  based on projected  customer
demand.  Many  manufacturing  processes  involve a combination of some or all of
these production techniques.

Based on data published by Dun & Bradstreet  Corporation,  we believe that there
are over 50,000  manufacturing  operations  in the United States and Canada that
meet our target market parameters.

Sales and Marketing

We market our products and services  primarily  throughout the United States and
Canada,  and we have recently added distribution for Europe. We use direct sales
representatives,  supported by regional managers and manufacturing  applications
consultants,  and a network of Value Added Resellers ("VARs").  We have licensed
Made2Manage  for use at more than  1300  manufacturing  sites in North  America,
primarily  in the  United  States.  Bridgeware  has  established  customers  and
reseller relationships outside of North America.

The Products

Made2Manage

Made2Manage, our core product, is designed to meet the unique needs of small and
midsize  discrete  manufacturers  engaged in  engineer-to-order,  make-to-order,
assemble-to-order,  make-to-stock and mixed styles of production. The product is
a  comprehensive  application  suite  designed to be the only business  software
these  manufacturers need to effectively manage their entire  organizations.  It
includes applications in sales and marketing, engineering, materials management,
production,  quality  management,  finance and  accounting,  human resources and
web-based applications for customer and supplier collaboration.

Made2Manage is an enterprise-wide,  client/server software solution designed for
use on PCs running  Windows NT  Workstation,  Windows 98 or Windows 95 over LANs
that  utilize  Windows  NT or  Novell  Netware  servers.  It is a native  32-bit
application with an object-oriented structure developed using Microsoft's Visual
Studio. The object-oriented,  standards-based  architecture shortens development
cycles,  reduces costs of product  enhancements,  opens the product for use with
other  applications,  such as Microsoft  Office,  and provides a more  efficient
environment for customer support.

                                       1
<PAGE>

Made2Manage  is designed to enable users to do their jobs more  effectively on a
consistent  basis.  Made2Manage  provides a set of applications  specific to the
demands  of our  target  market.  We  believe  these  unique  needs  include:

o    Easy-to-use  screens  designed  for  employees  that are  generalists,  not
     specialists, in the use of computers,
o    An emphasis on  lower-cost,  standard  technology,  specifically  Microsoft
     technology, because our customers have limited Information System staff and
     resources, and
o    Functionality that can be readily learned and can be effectively  supported
     by the software provider.

Made2Manage  provides  software  in seven  functional  areas of a  manufacturing
operation. These functional areas with a brief description are:

1.   Sales and  Distribution  provides  the ability to track  sales,  quotes and
     order  activity,  ship the  order  and to  communicate  with  the  customer
     regarding  status  of  the  order.   Sales  Order  Processing  manages  the
     activities from the time the customer  confirms the order,  into production
     and through shipment,  including  acknowledging the order,  receiving stock
     materials  and  handling  multiple  releases  and  partial  shipments.  The
     Rules-Based Product Configurator allows the sales person to guide customers
     through  specific  product  choices to precisely  meet their  product needs
     while  assuring  that  quotes  meet  profitability  and   manufacturability
     guidelines.

2.   Engineering  applications  are designed to help engineers  accomplish their
     tasks more efficiently and better  coordinate with  manufacturing and other
     parts of the organization.  It includes Engineering Change Management (ECM)
     which  helps  ensure  personnel  follow  proper  change  procedures  during
     approval and implementation.  It also provides information to help identify
     the impact  that  changes  will have on the  organization.  Other  features
     include a data  interface to AutoCAD(R) 14 that prevents  engineering  from
     entering the same information  twice and a graphical Bill of Material (BOM)
     creation and editing tool.

3.   Materials  Management  functions  include Materials  Requirements  Planning
     (MRP) for controlling inventory procurement and production job creation, as
     well as infinite and finite  production  scheduling.  Our Advanced Planning
     and Scheduling capabilities,  acquired with Bridgeware,  enable planners to
     consider  both  materials  and  capacity  constraints  at the same  time in
     building  their  production  plans.  Execution  level  support is  provided
     through  functions  that include  cycle  counting  functionality,  physical
     inventory  capabilities  and  on-hand  availability.  Lot  Control  enables
     companies to track raw materials,  sub-assemblies  and final  assemblies to
     their origin.

4.   Production   Management   facilitates  the   coordination,   execution  and
     monitoring  of the  manufacturing  process.  Job orders drive  material and
     production  requirements and track jobs through the production process. Job
     orders  identify the part number,  the bill of material,  the routing,  the
     status and the job packet  (i.e.,  the set of  instructions,  diagrams  and
     photographs  required to manufacture  the part).  Actual material and labor
     costs are tracked to jobs during the production  process,  typically  using
     bar coding technology.

5.   Quality  Management   capabilities  help   manufacturers   conform  to  the
     requirements of their customers.  Through our  relationship  with Powerway,
     Inc.,  Made2Manage  offers tools to help  achieve and maintain  ISO9000 and
     other quality standards  compliance  through document  authoring,  document
     management, and statistical process control software tools.

6.   Financial  Management is fully  integrated  with the other functions of the
     Made2Manage  system.  Up-to-date records of income,  expenses and financial
     commitments  flow  through the  product's  extensive  library of  financial
     reports.  Standard features include Accounts Receivable,  Accounts Payable,
     Cash Flow Forecasting and Job Order Costing.  The General Ledger integrates
     the monetary flow from all aspects of Made2Manage.  "Drill-down"  features,
     available  throughout the product,  finely detail many areas,  such as cost
     attributes of work in process, inventory and product shipped.

                                       2
<PAGE>

7.   Human Resources  applications  include payroll and personnel  tracking that
     integrate  Made2Manage with  applications from leading providers ADP(R) and
     Best Software.  The interface to ADP provides users who prefer to outsource
     payroll with an alternative that minimizes double data entry. For customers
     who prefer to manage their own payroll internally,  Made2Manage offers Best
     Software's Abra(R) as well as their Human Resources applications.

Made2Manage also incorporates decision support. The Executive Information System
provides  management with a tool to promote high level planning.  Executives are
able to obtain  an  overview  of their  entire  business,  with  automatic  data
retrieval from sales, production and finance.  Performance and exception results
are  generated in report or graphical  format,  and can be easily  customized or
exported to spreadsheets, word processors and other business tools.

Made2Manage offers several web-based  applications to help its customers achieve
a  competitive  edge with regards to  e-business  and the  Internet.  Informing,
interacting and  collaborating  with customers,  suppliers and employees is, and
will  continue to be, a very  important  role of the Internet,  and  Made2Manage
provides much of the  functionality so that small and midsize  manufacturers can
compete in the new Internet economy.

m2mEport

In  March  2000 we  launched  our web site  dedicated  to  small  and  mid-sized
manufacturers.  This site will provide many Internet resources for our customers
and other  manufacturers.  The m2mEport site features advanced distance learning
offerings,  the  ability to offer  Made2Manage  through an  Application  Service
Provider  (ASP),  along  with  content  rich  collaboration   opportunities  for
customers and suppliers.

Product Development

We  seek  to  enhance  our  competitive  position  by  incorporating  additional
functionality  in Made2Manage  and our e-business  products to meet the evolving
needs of manufacturers in our target market. Product enhancement ideas originate
from existing  customers,  prospective  customers and industry  trend  analysis.
Input is collected through surveys, interviews, user groups and customer service
and support  activities.  We analyze this input and identify  changes for future
product releases.  Our product development personnel have experience in software
development,  quality  assurance  and  documentation  and are familiar  with the
specific business areas addressed by the changes.

Our  development  methodology   incorporates   comprehensive  quality  assurance
procedures.  A substantial  component of our development  budget is allocated to
quality  assurance.  Our testing  processes  include component level tests, unit
tests, posting tests, validation tests, regression tests, installation tests, CD
tests and production tests. We maintain risk assessment documents throughout the
development  process to identify  potential  roadblocks  to a timely and quality
release early enough to allow corrective action.  Criterion-based (as opposed to
date-based) release guidelines help insure consistent release quality.

Our product development  expenditures were $6.5 million in 1999, $4.1 million in
1998 and $2.3 million in 1997. Development costs were expensed as incurred.

Software  design and development is a complicated  process,  and there can be no
assurance that we will be able to complete features and products currently under
development  in a timely  manner or to develop  features and products  that find
market acceptance in the future.

Service and Support

We offer a full  complement of services that allow our customers to maximize the
benefits  that they receive  from using  Made2Manage,  including  implementation
assistance  using  our  Time2Value  tools and  services,  customer  support  and
education programs.

                                       3
<PAGE>

Time2Value Tools and Services

Time2Value  tools and services are designed to help the  manufacturer  achieve a
quick,  successful  implementation  that  brings the  manufacturer  value in the
shortest  amount of time.  Time2Value  tools and services  include  planning and
implementation  guides,  computer based training tools,  procedure  analyses and
data conversion automation from old business systems.

Customer Support

We provide  ongoing  product  support  services under our support  arrangements.
Support services are typically purchased by customers for a one-year term at the
time of entering  into the sales  agreement,  and may be renewed for  additional
annual periods.  Support services include telephone support,  electronic support
through  our  Internet-based  SmartLink(TM)  knowledgebase  and case  management
system, and periodic software updates.

Education Programs

Classroom education courses are offered for each of the major user roles present
in a small and midsize manufacturing business.  These courses are offered at our
corporate offices, at regional locations and on-site at the customer's facility.
Each course includes hands-on exercises using the software in the context of the
user's typical workflow.

Additionally, we provide customers with the cost effective and convenient method
to educate their employees by use of Virtual Classroom. Virtual Classroom offers
hands-on  instruction  by  demonstrating  software  functions in an  interactive
classroom environment over the Internet.

Competition

The business management  applications  software market is fragmented,  intensely
competitive and rapidly  changing.  We face  competition  from a large number of
independent software vendors,  including application software vendors,  software
tool vendors and relational database management system vendors. The technologies
we  use to  develop  Made2Manage  are  generally  available  and  widely  known,
including  technology  developed by  Microsoft.  In addition,  several  software
companies that have traditionally  marketed ERP systems to larger  manufacturers
have  announced  initiatives  to market ERP  systems  to midsize  manufacturers.
Compared  to us,  many of our  existing  competitors,  as well  as a  number  of
potential  competitors,  have  significantly  greater  financial,  technical and
marketing resources and a larger base of customers.

Made2Manage  competes with other  products  principally  on the basis that it is
specifically designed for small and midsize manufacturers, is relatively easy to
implement  and use, and is supported by a  well-developed  system of service and
support.  In addition,  we believe that  advanced  features  for  messaging  and
Internet  access  differentiate  Made2Manage.  We also believe that  Made2Manage
competes favorably with the products offered by competitors, but there can be no
assurance  that we will continue to compete  favorably  against such products or
that we will be able to compete successfully against future competitors.

Intellectual Property

We regard our software products as proprietary in that title to and ownership of
the software we develop resides  exclusively with Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc. We
rely largely upon our license agreements with customers,  dealer agreements with
suppliers,  our own software  protection tools,  confidentiality  agreements and
employee  agreements to maintain the trade secret  aspects of our  products.  We
seek to protect our programs,  documentation  and other written  materials under
copyright law.

We have U.S. patent  applications  pending for software  included in Made2Manage
related  to  the  Material  Requirements  Planning  regeneration  feature  and a
navigational  interface for the  enterprise.  We have no other patents or patent
applications.

We believe that we have all necessary  rights to market our  products,  although
there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims
in the future.

(1) The income tax benefit  for 1996  results  from the  reversal of a valuation
    allowance that had been established to offset the future tax benefits of net
    operating loss  carryforwards.  The valuation  allowance was reversed during
    1996  based  on  management's  analysis,  which  considered  our  profitable
    operating  results and future  outlook  because of the market  acceptance of
    Made2Manage. As a result of this analysis, management determined it was more
    likely than not that the deferred  income taxes at December 31, 1996,  would
    be  realized.  For  subsequent  periods we have  provided  for income  taxes
    utilizing federal and state statutory income tax rates.

ITEM 7. Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
        Results of Operations.

This report contains certain "forward-looking  statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended.  These statements  reflect our  expectations  regarding our
strategic plans,  future growth,  results of operations,  performance,  business
prospects   and   opportunities.   Words  such  as,   "estimates,"   "believes,"
"anticipates,"  "plans" and similar  expressions  may be used to identify  these
forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying these
statements.  These  statements  reflect  our  current  beliefs  and are based on
information currently available to us. Accordingly, these statements are subject
to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our
actual growth, results,  performance and business prospects and opportunities to
differ from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. In light of the
uncertainties  inherent in any  forward-looking  statement  the  inclusion  of a
forward-looking  statement herein should not be regarded as a representation  by
us that our plans and  objectives  will be  achieved.  Actual  results or events
could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements
for the reasons discussed in this section, in the "Business Environment and Risk
Factors" section below, and elsewhere in this report,  or for other reasons.  We
are not  obligated  to update  or revise  these  forward-looking  statements  to
reflect  new  events  or  circumstances  or  otherwise.  Additional  information
concerning  factors that could cause actual  results to differ  materially  from
those in the  forward-looking  statements  is  contained  in the  Company's  SEC
reports, including the report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Overview

We  develop,  market,  license and support  Made2Manage,  an open  architecture,
standards-based,  client/server enterprise business system software solution for
small and midsize  manufacturers  engaged in  engineer-to-order,  make-to-order,
assemble-to-order,  make-to-stock  and  mixed  styles  of  production.  We  have
developed   manufacturing  software  applications  for  this  market  since  our
inception in 1986. Our first generation of Made2Manage, designed for PC networks
running the DOS operating system on Novell networks, was introduced in 1988, and
we introduced a UNIX version of Made2Manage in 1990. We ceased  offering the DOS
and UNIX  versions  to new  customers  in 1995  and  1994,  respectively  and we
discontinued supporting these versions in 1999.

In March 2000 we launched m2mEport, our web site dedicated to the needs of small
and midsize  manufacturers.  This site will provide many Internet  resources for
our customers  and other  manufacturers.  The m2mEport  site  features  advanced
distance  learning  offerings,  the  ability  to offer  Made2Manage  through  an
Application  Service  Provider  (ASP),  along with  content  rich  collaboration
opportunities for customers and suppliers.

During 1998 we acquired Bridgeware, Inc., a company that offers advance planning
and scheduling  software,  for a combination of cash and common stock. The total
cost of the acquisition was $4.5 million.  In connection with this  acquisition,
we recorded a $1.9 million in-process  technology charge. The remaining costs of
the  acquisition  are recorded as assets and are  expected to be amortized  over
lives of five and seven years.

Our revenues are derived from software licenses, services and hardware. Software
revenues  are  generated  from  licensing  software to new  customers,  and from
current customers increasing the number of licensed users and from licensing new
applications.  We recognize revenue from software license fees and hardware upon
shipment to the  customer  following  execution  of a sales  agreement.  Service
revenues are  generated  from annual fees paid by  customers to receive  support
services  and  software  upgrades and also from  implementation,  education  and
consulting services. Support is typically purchased as part of the initial sales
agreement and is renewable  annually.  Support fees are recognized  ratably over
the term of the agreement.  Service revenues from implementation,  education and
consulting  services  are  generally  included  in  the  initial  agreement.  We
recognize  revenue from these services as they are performed.  Hardware revenues
are  generated  primarily  from  the  sale of  bar-coding  and  data  collection
equipment used in connection with  Made2Manage and constitute a relatively small
component of total revenues.

Software  revenues  for a  particular  quarter  depend  substantially  on orders
received and products shipped in that quarter. Furthermore,  large orders may be
significant  to  operating  income in the  quarter  in which  the  corresponding
revenue is recognized.

Comparisons of Years Ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997

Revenues

Revenues are derived from software  license  fees,  service and support fees and
hardware  sales.  Total revenues  increased by $3.8 million,  or 14.0%, to $31.1
million in 1999 from $27.2 million in 1998.  Total  revenues  increased by $11.1
million,  or 68.5%, in 1998 from $16.2 million in 1997. The increase in 1999 was
primarily  due to an increase in service and support  revenues.  The increase in
1998 was primarily due to a greater volume of license transactions,  an increase
in average order size and sales of new software modules, all of which was driven
by an  increase  in market  awareness  and  acceptance  of  Made2Manage  and the
expansion of our sales and  marketing  organizations.  We have not  historically
recognized significant annual revenues from any single customer.

Although  revenues have  increased in 1999 over 1998 and 1997, we believe during
the last six months,  of 1999, we were adversely  impacted by the  industry-wide
trend of delays in new  business  system  purchases  due to the Year 2000 market
dynamics,  as  manufacturers  delayed  major  business  system  purchases.   See
"Business  Environment  and Risk  Factors - Year  2000  Market  Dynamics"  for a
description of Year 2000 market dynamics and potential revenue impact.



                                       11

Software  Revenues.  Software revenues  decreased by $2.4 million,  or 14.8%, to
$13.7  million in 1999 from $16.1 million in 1998 and increased by $5.9 million,
or  57.4%,  in 1998  from  $10.2  million  in 1997.  Software  license  revenues
constituted  44.2%,  59.2% and 63.4% of total  revenues in 1999,  1998 and 1997,
respectively.  The decrease in software  license revenues in 1999 was mainly due
to a lower volume of license transactions and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in
the average  contract size. The increases in software  license  revenues in 1998
and 1997 were primarily due to a greater volume of license  transactions and, to
a lesser  extent,  increases  in average  contract  size.  The  decreases in the
percentage of total revenues  represented by software  revenue resulted from the
greater rate of growth in services  revenues,  and, in 1999,  was due in part to
the reduced demand for enterprise  business  systems due to  industry-wide  Year
2000 market dynamics.

Services  Revenues.  Services revenues  increased by $6.0 million,  or 57.9%, to
$16.2 million in 1999 from $10.3 million in 1998 and by $5.0 million,  or 94.1%,
in 1998 from $5.3 million in 1997. These revenues  constituted  52.3%, 37.8% and
32.8% of total revenues in 1999, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The increases in
the revenues  recognized  were due to (i)  increased  support fees from a larger
user base, (ii) greater  utilization by customers of implementation,  consulting
and customization  services offerings and (iii) delivery of expanded educational
offerings.

Hardware Revenues.  Hardware revenues  increased by $252,000,  or 30.5%, to $1.1
million in 1999 from  $827,000 in 1998 and by $210,000,  or 34.0%,  in 1998 from
$617,000  in  1997.  These  revenues  constituted  3.5%,  3.0% and 3.8% of total
revenues in 1999, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The hardware  equipment sold is
bar-coding and data collection  equipment  necessary to utilize certain features
of Made2Manage. The increases were due to increased demand for this equipment as
a result of continued expansion of the number of customers using our software.

Costs of Revenues

Costs of Software  Revenues.  Costs of software  revenues  totaled $1.6 million,
$1.0 million and  $569,000 in 1999,  1998 and 1997,  respectively,  resulting in
gross profits of 88.5%, 93.7% and 94.4% of software revenues,  respectively. The
decrease in the gross profit in 1999 and 1998 was due to a greater proportion of
revenue generated from third-party products.

Amortization of Purchased  Technology.  This expense of $393,000 and $164,000 in
1999 and 1998,  respectively,  results  from  amortizing  the value  assigned to
Bridgeware  technology and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over five
years.

Costs of Services  Revenues.  Costs of services  revenues  totaled $8.8 million,
$5.6 million and $3.3 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, resulting in
gross profits of 46.1%, 45.2% and 36.8% of service revenues,  respectively.  The
cost increases  were due primarily to the growth in our installed  customer base
and  related  support  services  revenue,  which  resulted in an increase in the
staffing  levels  for  technical  support,  implementation,   customization  and
education  services.  The increase in gross profits in 1998 compared to 1997 was
due to one-time costs incurred in 1997 to develop customer requirements.

Costs of Hardware. Costs of hardware totaled $735,000,  $558,000 and $419,000 in
1999,  1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The gross profit from  hardware was 31.9%,
32.5% and 32.1% of hardware revenues in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing  Expenses.  Sales and marketing expenses were $11.7 million,
$9.9 million and $6.5 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing
37.5%,  36.2% and 40.5% of total revenues,  respectively.  The increase in sales
and  marketing  expenses in 1999 was primarily due to increased (i) staffing for
sales  and  marketing,   (ii)  marketing   activities,   including   promotional
activities,(iii)  travel expenses related to sales and marketing efforts, and, (
iv) the costs of beginning  international sales efforts.  The increases in sales
and marketing  expenses in 1998 and 1997 were  principally  due to increased (i)
staffing  for  sales  and  marketing,   (ii)  marketing  activities,   including
promotional  activities,(iii)  travel  expenses  related to sales and  marketing
efforts,  and, ( iv) commissions as a result of increased license revenues.  The
decrease  in sales and  marketing  expenses  as a  percent  of  revenue  in 1998
compared to 1997 was a result of greater productivity.

                                       12

Product Development  Expenses.  Product development  expenses were $6.5 million,
$4.1 million and $2.3 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing
21.0%,  15.1% and 14.4% of total revenues,  respectively.  We did not capitalize
any software  development  costs during  these  years,  since the  capitalizable
portion was not significant. Product development expenses increased in 1999 as a
percent of revenue  over 1998 as we  continued  to invest in our product to meet
competitive  pressures.  We expect  product  development  costs will continue to
increase in  proportion  to the  increase in  revenues,  but not as a percent of
revenue.

General and Administrative  Expenses.  General and administrative  expenses were
$4.3  million,   $3.3  million  and  $1.9  million  in  1999,   1998  and  1997,
respectively,   representing   13.7%,   12.1%  and  12.0%  of  total   revenues,
respectively.  The expense  increases  resulted  primarily from additional costs
incurred  to support the growth of  operations  and,  to a lesser  extent,  as a
result of the addition of personnel.

Amortization of Acquired  Intangibles.  This expense of $300,000 and $125,000 in
1999 and 1998, respectively, results from amortizing excess cost over net assets
acquired and assembled workforce related to the acquisition of Bridgeware.

Acquired In-Process Technology.  This charge of $1.9 million in 1998 is a result
of the  amounts  assigned  to  in-process  technology  in  connection  with  the
acquisition of Bridgeware.

On a pro  forma  basis,  exclusive  of the  Bridgeware  acquisition  charge  for
in-process  technology and amortization of purchase  related assets,  results of
operations would be comparatively reported as follows.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other  income  (expense),  net was  $578,000  and $579,000 of income in 1999 and
1998,  respectively and $35,000 of expense in 1997,  representing 1.8%, 2.1% and
(0.2)%  of  total  revenues,   respectively.  Other  income  in  1999  and  1998
principally  reflects  interest  earned on the  proceeds of our  initial  public
offering,  which was completed in December  1997.  The other expense in 1997 was
principally interest on borrowings, which were subsequently repaid from proceeds
of the initial public offering.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)

The income tax provision (benefit) effective rate was (40.3)% in 1999 and 33.8%,
excluding the in-process  research technology charge, in 1998 and 37.4% in 1997.
The  effective  rate was higher for 199  compared to 1998  primarily  due to the
impact of non  deductible  amortization.  The effective  rate was lower for 1998
compared to 1997 due to the impact of tax free interest included in other income
(expense),   net,  offset,   in  part,  by   non-deductible   intangible  assets
amortization  in  1998.  The  acquired  in-process   technology  charge  is  not
deductible  for  income  tax  purposes.  See  Note 7 of  Notes  to  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Year 2000

Compliance

The Year 2000 issue  relates to whether  computer  systems  are able to properly
recognize and process information  relating to dates in and after the year 2000.
Prior to January  1,  2000,  significant  uncertainty  existed  in the  software
industry concerning the potential consequences that might have occurred from the
failure of software to adequately address the Year 2000 issue.

We have  not  encountered  any  Year  2000  compliance  issues  relating  to our
currently developed and actively marketed software products or with our internal
computer  information system and non-computer  systems.  Our current product and
service  offerings have been designed to be Year 2000 compliant  (though earlier
versions of our  products  that are not the most  currently  released or are not
currently being developed may not be Year 2000 compliant).  Year 2000 compliance
issues have many  elements  and  consequences,  some of which  cannot be readily
detected or foreseen.  We will continue to monitor our  operations for Year 2000
problems.  Any failure of our  software  product and  service  offerings  or our
internal computer information system or non-computer systems to properly process
dates could have a material  adverse effect on our business,  operating  results
and financial condition.

We expensed all costs  related to  preparation  for Year 2000 issues.  The total
costs of evaluation and compliance were not material.

Market Dynamics.

We believe  that  during  1999 we were  adversely  affected  by Year 2000 market
dynamics, and we are uncertain of the impact Year 2000 market dynamics will have
on us during 2000. See "Business Environmental and Risk Factors Year 2000 Market
Dynamics" for a description of Year 2000 market  dynamics and potential  revenue
impact.

Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our operations.

Accounting Pronouncements

In December 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software
Revenue  Recognition,  With Respect to Certain  Transactions," which will retain
the  limitation  of SOP  97-2  on what  constitutes  vendor  specific  objective
evidence of fair value.  SOP 98-9 was effective for transaction  entered into in
fiscal years beginning after March 15, 1999. We believe that our current revenue
recognition policies and practices are consistent with the provisions of the new
guidance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have funded  operations to date primarily  through equity capital,  including
the initial  public  offering of common  stock in December  1997,  debt and cash
generated  from  operations.  As of December 31, 1999,  we had $14.4  million of
cash, cash equivalents and investments  resulting  principally from the proceeds
of our initial public offering.

Cash flows from operations were $134,000, $5.4 million and $2.3 million in 1999,
1998  and  1997,  respectively.  During  1998 we used  $3.5  million  of cash in
connection  with the  acquisition of  Bridgeware.  Other cash usage included the
purchase of computer equipment and office furniture and aggregated $2.8 million,
$2.5 million and $1.4 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  During 1999
we received  $351,000  from the exercise of stock options and purchase of common
stock under the Stock  Purchase  Plan and realized tax benefits of $121,000 from
stock option exercises.  Subsequent to the acquisition of Bridgeware in 1998, we
repaid $111,000 of outstanding Bridgeware indebtedness. Net borrowings decreased
$793,000  in 1997  principally  as a  result  of the  repayment  of  outstanding
indebtedness using the proceeds of the initial public offering.

                                       14
<PAGE>

At  December  31,  1999,  we had  working  capital  of $11.8  million.  Accounts
receivable,  net of allowance for doubtful  accounts,  was $7.4 million and $9.1
million at  December  31,  1999 and 1998,  respectively.  The  average  accounts
receivable days' outstanding was 93 days at December 31, 1999, and 87 days as of
December 31, 1998.  Deferred  revenue  increased to $9.4 million at December 31,
1999,  from $8.8  million at December  31, 1998.  Deferred  revenue  principally
relates to support agreements or contracted services, and the current portion of
deferred  revenue is expected to be recognized in revenue during the next twelve
months. Deferred revenue increased primarily as a result of high support renewal
rates from the  installed  base of customers  and from sales of new systems that
contain support and service  components  which are recognized on a straight-line
basis over the support period or when the service is delivered.

We have a revolving  credit  agreement  with a commercial  bank which expires on
March 31, 2000, borrowings under which bear interest at the prime rate (8.50% at
December 31, 1999).  Loans under the revolving credit agreement are limited,  in
the aggregate,  to the lesser of $2 million and a "borrowing base" amount. As of
December 31,  1999,  we  satisfied  the  borrowing  base  requirements  and were
eligible to borrow up to the maximum of $2.0 million. We have not borrowed under
the  revolving  line of credit.  We expect to renew our line of credit  April 1,
2000.

We believe that cash and cash equivalents,  cash flow from operations and credit
commitments will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated working capital
and capital expenditure requirements at least through 2000.

Business Environment and Risk Factors

In addition to other information contained in this report, the following factors
could  affect  our  actual  results  and  could  cause  such  results  to differ
materially  from those achieved in the past or expressed in our forward  looking
statements.

Fluctuations of Quarterly Operating Results; Seasonality

We have  experienced  in the past,  and  expect  to  experience  in the  future,
significant  fluctuations in quarterly  operating results. A substantial portion
of our  software  license  revenue in each quarter is from  licenses  signed and
product  shipped  in that  quarter,  and such  revenues  historically  have been
recorded  largely  in the third  month of a  quarter,  with a  concentration  of
revenues mostly in the last week of that third month. Accordingly, our quarterly
results of operations are difficult to predict,  and delays in closings of sales
near the end of a quarter or product  delivery  could cause  quarterly  revenues
and, to a greater degree, net income to fall substantially  short of anticipated
levels.  In addition,  we have  experienced a seasonal  pattern in our operating
results, with the fourth quarter typically having the highest total revenues and
operating  income  and the first  quarter  having  historically  reported  lower
revenues and operating  income  compared to the fourth  quarter of the preceding
year.

Other  factors,  many of which are beyond our control,  that may  contribute  to
fluctuations  in  quarterly  operating  results  include the size of  individual
orders,  the  timing of  product  introductions  or  enhancements  by us and our
competitors,  competition and pricing in the  manufacturing  software  industry,
market  acceptance of new products,  reduction in demand for existing  products,
the  shortening of product life cycles as a result of new product  introductions
by  us  or  our  competitors,   product  quality  problems,  personnel  changes,
conditions  or  events  in the  manufacturing  industry,  and  general  economic
conditions.

The sales cycle for  Made2Manage  typically  ranges  from three to nine  months.
However,  license  signing may be delayed for a number of reasons outside of our
control.  Since  software is generally  shipped as orders are received,  we have
historically operated without significant backlog.

Because our operating  expenses are based on  anticipated  revenue  levels and a
high  percentage of our expenses are relatively  fixed in the short term,  small
variations  in the  timing  of  revenue  recognition  can  cause  a  significant
fluctuation  in  operating  results  from  quarter to quarter  and may result in
unanticipated quarterly earnings shortfalls or losses. In addition, we currently
intend to increase operating expenses in anticipation of continued growth and to
fund expanded product development  efforts. To the extent such expenses precede,
or are not subsequently followed by, increased revenues, our business, financial
condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

                                       15

Year 2000 Market Dynamics

We believe the Year 2000 planning cycle reduced  demand for enterprise  business
systems in 1999. In addition,  each customer's evaluation of its need to achieve
Year 2000  compliance  with other internal  systems  potentially  lengthened the
sales cycle. We believe that in 1999 certain  customers and potential  customers
were  engaged in testing  and  correcting  system Year 2000  problems,  and such
customers may have chosen to defer system  investments  during 1999,  negatively
impacting our revenues.  Additionally,  prior year sales may have been increased
due to customers'  need to address Year 2000 issues.  Such Year 2000 demand most
likely  was  reduced  in 1999 due to the lead time  required  to  implement  new
systems,  possibly  negatively  impacting  our  revenues.  Our sales  cycles may
lengthen in 2000 and future years due to lessened  urgency of customers'  system
investment  decisions.  Because Year 2000 related impacts on customer purchasing
decisions were unprecedented,  we have a limited ability to determine the impact
of the Year 2000 market dynamics on our quarter-to-quarter revenues in 2000.

Product and Market Concentration

Our  revenues are  currently  derived from  licenses of  Made2Manage,  including
optional  modules,  licensing of Bridgeware's  Advanced  Planning and Scheduling
products and third-party software,  and related support,  services and hardware.
In the near term,  Made2Manage and related  services are expected to continue to
account for substantially all of the our revenues.  Accordingly,  any event that
adversely  affects  the sale of  Made2Manage,  such as  competition  from  other
products,  significant  quality  problems,   incompatibility  with  third  party
hardware or software products, negative publicity or evaluation,  reduced market
acceptance  of, or  obsolescence  of the  hardware  platforms  on,  or  software
environments  in,  which  Made2Manage  operates,  could have a material  adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business depends  substantially upon the software  expenditures of small and
midsize   manufacturers,   which  in  part  depend  upon  the  demand  for  such
manufacturers'   products.   A  recession  or  other  adverse  event   affecting
manufacturing  industries in the United States could impact such demand, forcing
manufacturers in our target market to curtail or postpone  capital  expenditures
for business  information systems. Any adverse change in the amount or timing of
software  expenditures  by our target  customers  could have a material  adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Third Party Technologies

Made2Manage  uses a variety of third  party  technologies,  including  operating
systems,  tools and other  applications  developed  and  supported  by Microsoft
Corporation  ("Microsoft").  There  can  be no  assurance  that  Microsoft  will
continue to support the operating systems, tools and other applications utilized
by  Made2Manage  or that they will continue to be widely  accepted in our target
market.  Made2Manage  relies heavily on Microsoft's Visual Studio, and there can
be no assurance that Microsoft will not discontinue or otherwise fail to support
Visual Studio or any of its  components.  In addition,  we use a number of other
programming  tools and  applications,  including  ActiveX,  OLE, ODBC, OLEDB and
Internet Information Server.

We sublicense various third party products,  including  Microsoft Visual FoxPro,
Microsoft Project,  products from Powerway, Best Software, and FRx, and bar code
hardware and software.  There can be no assurance that these third party vendors
will  continue to support these  technologies  or that these  technologies  will
retain their level of acceptance among  manufacturers in our target market.  The
occurrence  of any of these events could have a material  adverse  effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Product Development

Our growth and future financial  performance  depend in part upon our ability to
enhance  existing  applications and to develop and introduce new applications to
incorporate   technological  advances  that  satisfy  customer  requirements  or
expectations.  As a result of the complexities  inherent in product development,
there  can  be  no  assurance  that  either   improvements   to  Made2Manage  or
applications  that we develop in the future will be  delivered on a timely basis
or ultimately accepted in the market. Any failure by us to anticipate or respond
adequately  to  technological  development  or  end-user  requirements,  or  any
significant  delays in product  development  or  introduction,  could damage our
competitive  position  and  have a  material  adverse  effect  on our  business,
financial condition and results of operations.

                                       16
<PAGE>

Dependence on Key Personnel

Our success  depends to a  significant  extent  upon a number of key  employees,
including members of senior management.  No employee is subject to an employment
contract. Our ability to implement business strategy is substantially  dependent
on our ability to attract,  on a timely  basis,  and retain  skilled  personnel,
especially sales, service,  support and development  personnel.  Competition for
such  personnel  is intense,  and we compete for such  personnel  with  numerous
companies,  including  larger,  more  established  companies with  significantly
greater  financial  resources.  There  can  be no  assurance  that  we  will  be
successful  in  attracting  and  retaining  skilled  personnel.  The loss of the
services  of one or more of the key  employees  or the  failure to  attract  and
retain qualified employees could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

Management of Growth; International Expansion

We have experienced  rapid growth in our business and operations.  While we have
managed this growth to date,  there can be no assurance  that we will be able to
effectively do so in the future.  Our ability to manage growth  successfully  is
contingent on a number of factors including our ability to implement and improve
operational,  financial and management  information  systems and to motivate and
effectively  manage  employees.  While  we plan  to  distribute  Made2Manage  in
international  markets,  we  have no  significant  experience  in  international
markets and there can be no assurance  that such  expansion can be  successfully
accomplished.  If we  are  unable  to  manage  future  growth  effectively,  our
business,  financial condition and results of operations would be materially and
adversely affected.

Risks Associated with Acquisitions

As part of our business strategy, we expect to review acquisition prospects that
would  complement our existing  product  offerings,  augment market  coverage or
enhance   technological   capabilities   or  that  may  otherwise  offer  growth
opportunities.  Acquisitions  could result in potentially  dilutive issuances of
equity  securities,  the  incurrence  of  debt  and  contingent  liabilities  or
amortization  expenses related to goodwill and other intangible  assets,  any of
which could materially  adversely  affect operating  results and/or the price of
our common stock.  Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in
the assimilation of acquired operations, technologies and products, diversion of
management's  attention from other business concerns,  risks of entering markets
in  which we have no or  limited  prior  experience  and  potential  loss of key
employees of acquired organizations. No assurance can be given as to our ability
to successfully  integrate any businesses,  products,  technologies or personnel
that might be acquired  in the future,  and the failure of to do so could have a
material  adverse  effect on our business and financial  condition or results of
operations.

Insufficient Customer Commitment

To obtain the  benefits  of  Made2Manage,  customers  must commit  resources  to
implement and manage the product and to train their  employees in the use of the
product.  The failure of customers to commit sufficient resources to those tasks
or to carry them out effectively could result in customer  dissatisfaction  with
Made2Manage.  If a  significant  number of customers  became  dissatisfied,  our
reputation could be tarnished and our business,  financial condition and results
of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Competition

The business management  applications software market is intensely  competitive,
rapidly changing and  significantly  affected by new product offerings and other
market  activities.  We face  competition  from a variety of  software  vendors,
including  application  software  vendors,  software tool vendors and relational
database  management  systems  vendors.  A number  of  companies  offer  Windows
compatible  products  that are  directed  at the  market  for ERP  systems.  The
technologies we use to develop  Made2Manage  are generally  available and widely
known and include technologies developed by Microsoft. There can be no assurance
that  competitors  will not develop  products based on the same  technology upon
which Made2Manage is based.

Our competitors  include a large number of software and system vendors,  many of
which are public  companies.  In  addition,  there are  numerous  international,
national and regional vendors that offer alternative  systems.  Several software
companies that have traditionally  marketed ERP systems to larger  manufacturers
have  announced  initiatives  to market ERP  systems  to midsize  manufacturers.
Compared  to us,  many of the  existing  competitors,  as well  as a  number  of
potential  competitors,  have  significantly  greater  financial,  technical and
marketing  resources and a larger  installed base of customers.  There can be no
assurance  that such  competitors  will not offer or develop  products  that are
superior to  Made2Manage  or that achieve  greater  market  acceptance.  If such
competition were to result in significant price declines or loss of market share
for  Made2Manage,  our  business,  financial  condition and results of operation
would be adversely affected.

Relationships with Value Added Resellers

We distribute our software  products  through a direct sales force and a network
of value  added  resellers  ("VARs").  A  significant  portion  of  licenses  of
Made2Manage  sold to new  customers is sold by VARs.  If some or all of the VARs
reduce  their  efforts  to  sell  Made2Manage,  promote  competing  products  or
terminate their  relationships  with us, our business,  financial  condition and
results of operation  would be materially and adversely  affected.  Furthermore,
VARs frequently develop strong  relationships  with their customers,  so if VARs
criticize  us or our  products  to  their  customers,  our  reputation  could be
damaged,  which could have a material adverse effect on our business,  financial
condition or results of operations.

Product Liability and Lack of Insurance

We market,  sell and support  software  products used by manufacturers to manage
their business  operations and to store  substantially  all of their operational
data.  Software  programs  as complex as those we offer may  contain  undetected
errors,  despite  testing,  which are discovered only after the product has been
installed and used by customers.  There can be no assurance that errors will not
be found in existing or future  releases of our software or that any such errors
will not impair the market  acceptance of these  products.  A customer  could be
required to cease operations  temporarily and some or all of its key operational
data could be lost or damaged if its  information  systems fail as the result of
human error, mechanical difficulties or quality problems in Made2Manage or third
party technologies  utilized by Made2Manage.  We have insurance covering product
liability or damages arising from negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions;
however there can be no assurance that this insurance will be adequate.  A claim
against us, if successful and of a sufficient  magnitude,  could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Proprietary Rights; Risk of Infringement

We rely  primarily on a  combination  of trade  secret,  copyright and trademark
laws,  nondisclosure  agreements and other contractual  provisions and technical
measures to protect our proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that these
protections will be adequate or that competitors will not independently  develop
products incorporating  technology that is substantially  equivalent or superior
to  our  technology.  Furthermore,  other  than  pending  United  States  patent
applications  for  software  included  in  Made2Manage  related to the  Material
Requirements Planning regeneration feature and a navigational  interface for the
enterprise,  the we have no patents or patent applications pending, and existing
copyright laws afford only limited  protection.  In the event that we are unable
to protect our proprietary rights, our business, financial condition and results
of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

There  can be no  assurance  that we will  not be  subject  to  claims  that our
technology  infringes on the  intellectual  property of third  parties,  that we
would  prevail  against any such claims or that a  licensing  agreement  will be
available on reasonable terms in the event of an unfavorable  ruling on any such
claim. Any such claim, with or without merit, would likely be time consuming and
expensive to defend and could have a material  adverse  effect on our  business,
financial condition and results of operations.

Substantial Control by Single Shareholder

As of March 1, 2000,  Hambrecht & Quist ("H&Q") and its affiliates,  as a group,
beneficially  owned  approximately  20.7% of our outstanding  common stock. As a
result,  H&Q and its affiliates will be able to exercise  significant  influence
over all matters  requiring  shareholder  approval,  including  the  election of
directors and approval of significant corporate  transactions.  Concentration of
stock ownership could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in
control.

Effect of Antitakeover Provisions

Our Amended and Restated  Articles of Incorporation  (the "Articles")  authorize
the Board of Directors to issue, without shareholder approval, up to two million
shares of  preferred  stock  with such  rights and  preferences  as the Board of
Directors may determine in its sole discretion.  The Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc.
Stock  Option  Plan (the  "Option  Plan")  provides  that,  unless  the Board of
Directors or a committee of the our Board of Directors  decides to the contrary,
all outstanding options vest and become immediately exercisable upon a merger or
similar transaction.  In addition,  certain provisions of Indiana law could have
the  effect  of  making  it more  difficult  for a third  party to  acquire,  or
discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control. Further, certain
provisions of Indiana law impose various  procedural and other requirements that
could  make it more  difficult  for  shareholders  to effect  certain  corporate
actions.  The foregoing  provisions could discourage an attempt by a third party
to acquire a controlling  interest  without the approval of  management  even if
such third party were  willing to purchase  shares of common  stock at a premium
over its then market price.

Possible Volatility of Stock Price

The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide  fluctuations  in
response  to  quarterly  variations  in  operating  results,   announcements  of
technological  innovations or new  applications  by us or our  competitors,  the
failure  of  earnings  to meet  the  expectations  of  securities  analysts  and
investors, as well as other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has
from time to time experienced  extreme price and volume  fluctuations which have
particularly  affected the market price of many high  technology  companies  and
which often have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies.
These broad market  fluctuations  may  adversely  affect the market price of the
common stock.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

The sale of a  substantial  number of shares of our  common  stock in the public
market could adversely  affect the market price of the common stock. As of March
1, 2000, we had 4,726,563 shares of common stock  outstanding,  of which 976,793
shares of common stock are "Restricted  Shares," which are subject to volume and
other  limitations  of Rule 144 and Rule 701  restrictions  under the Securities
Act. As of March 1, 2000, there were options  outstanding to purchase  1,752,475
shares  of  common  stock at a  weighted  average  price of  $7.16  share  under
Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc.  Stock  Option Plan (the  "Option  Plan"),  of which
options  to  purchase  878,571  shares of common  stock  were  then  vested  and
exercisable.  We have reserved  195,437  shares of common stock for future grant
under the Option  Plan.  We have  reserved  100,000  shares of common  stock for
issuance under the Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"Stock  Purchase  Plan").  As of March 1, 2000,  28,932  shares have been issued
under the Stock  Purchase  Plan. We filed  registration  statements  registering
shares of common  stock  issued  pursuant to the Option Plan and Stock  Purchase
Plan on January 30, 1998.  Accordingly,  shares  issued  pursuant to these plans
will be  saleable  in the  public  market  upon  issuance,  subject  to  certain
restrictions.

Absence of Dividends

We do not  anticipate  paying  any cash  dividends  on our  common  stock in the
foreseeable  future.  We currently  intend to retain  earnings,  if any, for the
development of our business.

Investment Risk

Despite the high credit ratings on our cash equivalents and  investments,  there
is no assurance such agencies will not default on their  obligations which could
result in losses of principal and accrued interest.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Made2Manage Systems, Inc.:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying
index  present  fairly,  in all material  respects,  the  financial  position of
Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc. and its  subsidiaries at December 31, 1999 and 1998,
and the results of their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended  December  31, 1999,  in  conformity  with  accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. In addition, in our opinion,
the financial  statement  schedule  listed in the  accompanying  index  presents
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in
conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements.  These financial
statements  and  financial  statement  schedule  are the  responsibility  of the
Company's  management;  our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
financial  statements and financial  statement  schedule based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these  statements in accordance with auditing  standards
generally accepted in the United States,  which 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,
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  and evaluating the overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We
believe  that our audits  provide a reasonable  basis for the opinion  expressed
above.

                            MADE2MANAGE SYSTEMS, INC.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Made2Manage  Systems,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  develops,  markets  and  supports
business  management  systems  for small  and  midsize  manufacturing  companies
located  primarily  in the United  States.  The  Company is  dependent  upon its
primary product, Made2Manage for Windows, which is a fully integrated, Microsoft
Windows based business software system for manufacturing companies.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company and
its  wholly-owned   subsidiaries.   All  material   intercompany   accounts  and
transactions have been eliminated.

The  preparation  of  consolidated   financial  statements  in  conformity  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles requires management to make estimates
and  assumptions  that affect  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial  statements and the reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

The Company  considers  highly liquid  investments  with original  maturities of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Marketable  securities  consist of
debt  instruments  with  maturities  between  three and  twelve  months  and are
classified as available-for-sale. Cash equivalents and marketable securities are
valued at cost which approximates market value.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Leasehold  improvements are amortized
over the lesser of the term of the related lease or estimated  useful life.  All
other assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated
useful lives which range from two to ten years.

Computer Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for computer software  development costs in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer  Software to be Sold,  Leased or Otherwise  Marketed."  Costs  incurred
prior  to  establishing  the  technological  feasibility  of  computer  software
products and  enhancements  to such products are expensed as incurred.  Software
development costs incurred by the Company following  technological  feasibility,
defined by the Company as the existence of a working  model of the product,  and
prior to the time the product is  available  for general  release to  customers,
have not been material and,  therefore,  have not been capitalized in 1999, 1998
or 1997.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company  recognizes  revenue from the sale of its software and hardware upon
receipt of an executed  sales  agreement  and shipment to the customer  provided
there are no  significant  remaining  vendor  obligations  to be  fulfilled  and
collectibility  is probable in accordance  with American  Institute of Certified
Public Accountants Statement of Position 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition".

Services  revenue  includes  support,  education and  consulting  services.  The
Company provides  software support and product upgrades to its customers through
separately  priced  agreements.  These  support  revenues  are  recognized  on a
straight-line  basis over the term of the  agreement.  Revenues  from  technical
training and consulting services are recognized as provided to customers.

                                       27

Purchased Technology

Purchased  technology is being  amortized on a  straight-line  basis over a five
year period.

Intangible Assets

Excess of cost over net assets  acquired is amortized on a  straight-line  basis
over the five year period expected to be benefited.  Adjustments to the carrying
value of excess of cost over net assets acquired are made if the sum of expected
future net cash flows from the business acquired is less than carrying value.

Other  intangible  assets,  including  the value  assigned to the  workforce  at
Bridgeware, are amortized on a straight-line basis over seven years.

Net Income (loss) Per Share

Earnings  per share  ("EPS") is  determined  in  accordance  with  Statement  of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), "Earnings Per Share", and
is based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares
outstanding  for  the  period.  Diluted  common  equivalent  shares  consist  of
convertible preferred stock (using the "if converted" method), stock options and
warrants (using the treasury stock method) as prescribed by SFAS No. 128. Common
equivalent  shares are included in the diluted  earnings  per share  calculation
when  dilutive.  Under the treasury  stock method the assumed  proceeds from the
exercise of stock options and warrants are applied  solely to the  repurchase of
common stock.

Stock-Based Compensation

The  Company  accounts  for  its  stock-based   compensation   under  Accounting
Principles  Board  Opinion No. 25 (APB  Opinion No. 25),  "Accounting  for Stock
Issued to  Employees,"  and  related  interpretations,  and  follows  disclosure
provisions  of  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 123 (SFAS No.
123),  "Accounting  for  Stock-based  Compensation."  The Company has elected to
apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosures
of SFAS No. 123.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software
Revenue  Recognition,  With Respect to Certain  Transactions," which will retain
the  limitation  of SOP  97-2  on what  constitutes  vendor  specific  objective
evidence  of fair value.  As the  Company's  revenue  recognition  policies  and
practices were consistent with SOP 98-9, the new guidance did not have an impact
on the Company.

2.   Acquisition

On August 3, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding  capital stock of
Bridgeware,  a  privately  held  software  company  that  develops,  markets and
supports  Advanced  Planning  and  Scheduling   software  and  related  services
throughout  North  America,  South  America  and  Europe.  The  transaction  was
consummated  for  approximately  $3.5  million in cash and 91,135  shares of the
Company's  common  stock  with  a  market  value  of  $997,000  at the  date  of
acquisition.

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method.  The purchase price
was  allocated to  identifiable  tangible  and  intangible  assets  acquired and
liabilities  assumed based on their estimated fair values.  Amounts allocated to
acquired  in-process  technology  have been expensed at the time of acquisition.
The consolidated  statements of operations  reflect the results of operations of
the purchased  company since the effective  date of the  acquisition.  Pro forma
statements  are not shown as they  would not  differ  materially  from  reported
results.

To determine the fair value of the acquired in-process  technology,  the Company
considered three traditional  approaches of value: the cost approach, the market
approach and the income  approach.  The Company  relied  primarily on the income
approach,  whereby  fair  market  value is a  function  of the  future  revenues
expected to be generated by an asset, net of all allocable  expenses and charges
for the use of the  contributory  assets.  The  future  net  revenue  stream  is
discounted to present value based upon the  specified  level of risk  associated
with achieving the forecasted  asset  earnings.  The resulting  value is further
reduced to reflect the percentage of completion of development as of the date an
acquisition.  The income approach focuses on the income production capability of
the acquired assets and best represents the present value of the future economic
benefits expected to be derived from these assets.

The Company determined that the acquired in-process technologies had not reached
technological  feasibility  based  on  the  status  of  design  and  development
activities  that  required  future  refinement  and  testing.   The  development
activities  required to complete the acquired in-process  technologies  included
additional coding, quality assurance procedures and customer beta testing. Based
on appraisal  amounts,  the Company  recorded a charge for  acquired  in-process
technology of $1.9 million.

The  Company  also  acquired   $785,000  in  net  tangible  assets  and  assumed
liabilities of $844,000. The allocation of the remaining purchase price resulted
in an excess  of the  purchase  price  over the fair  values  of the net  assets
acquired of  approximately  $3.6 million and a related deferred tax liability of
$862,000.  These intangible assets relate to purchased  technology and assembled
workforce  and the balance of the purchase  price has been assigned to excess of
cost over net assets acquired, all of which will be amortized on a straight-line
basis over useful lives of five or seven years.

The balances of the intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

5.   Line of Credit Agreement

The Company has a $2,000,000  working capital  facility with a bank which had no
amounts  outstanding at December 31, 1999 and 1998.  This line of credit expires
March 31, 2000.  Interest is at the prime rate (8.50% at December 31, 1999).  We
expect to renew our line of credit April 1, 2000.

6.   Shareholders' Equity

In December 1997, the Company  completed an initial public offering of 2,310,937
shares  of  common  stock at $7.50  per  share,  resulting  in net  proceeds  of
$15,469,000 after deducting  underwriting  discounts and other costs. All issued
and  outstanding  Series  A,  B,  C  and  D  convertible  preferred  stock  were
automatically  converted  into an aggregate of 1,493,885  shares of common stock
upon the completion of the offering.

Preferred Stock

Authorized preferred stock is issuable in series under such terms and conditions
as the Board of Directors may determine.

                                       30

Stock Warrants

The Company issued  warrants that entitled the holders to purchase 14,063 shares
of  series C  preferred  stock at an  exercise  price of  $4.00  per  share.  In
conjunction with the initial public offering of the Company's common stock these
warrants were exercised and the series C preferred stock was converted to common
stock.

Common Stock Options

The Company's  1999 Option Plan,  was adopted in April 1999,  and authorizes the
granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options. No additional options will
be granted under the Company's previous Option Plan which was originally adopted
in 1990. Initially 200,000 shares were reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan
with  automatic  increases  on  January 1 of each  year  equal to 7% of the Base
Shares. The Base Shares are equal to the sum of ( i) the number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock  outstanding on the last day of the preceding fiscal year
and ( ii) the number of shares of Common Stock  reserved  for issuance  upon the
exercise of options  outstanding  on the last day of the preceding  fiscal year.
The exercise price of the options must not be less than the fair market value of
the common stock for options.  Options  granted under the Option Plan  generally
vest over four years,  with 25%  exercisable one year from date of grant and the
remaining 75% at the rate of 1/48th of the amount granted in each of the next 36
consecutive  months.  Options granted prior to 1996 generally  expire five years
from the date of grant and options  granted  subsequently  expire ten years from
date of grant. The 1999 Plan terminates in 2009.

At December 31, 1999,  options for 22,400 shares of common stock were  available
for future grants under the plan. In accordance with the provisions of the plan,
the number of shares  available  for grant  automatically  increased  by 436,387
shares to 458,787 shares on January 1, 2000.

The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for
its option plan, and no compensation expense has been recognized.  The following
table presents pro forma net income had compensation  cost been determined based
on the fair value at the grant date for awards under the plan in accordance with
SFAS No. 123.

</TABLE>

The fair value of each option  grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes  option-pricing  model with the following  assumptions:  risk-free
interest rate of 5.5% for 1999 and 1998 and 6.0% for 1997;  expected life of one
year beyond  vesting date;  and volatility of 65% for 1999, 75% for 1998 and 60%
for 1997.  In  accordance  with SFAS No. 123,  only options  granted in 1995 and
subsequently  are  included  in  these   calculations  and,   accordingly,   the
disclosures are not likely to be  representative  of the effect on pro forma net
income  for  future  years  because  awards  vest  over  several  years  and the
disclosures do not take into  consideration  pro forma expense related to grants
made prior to 1995 and additional awards that generally are made each year.

Based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, the fair value at grant date of
options  granted  for the years ended  December 31 were $6.50 in 1999,  $5.03 in
1998, and $2.91 for 1997.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The  Company's   Employee  Stock  Purchase  Plan  ("Stock  Purchase  Plan")  was
established  in October 1997 and 100,000  shares of the  Company's  common stock
were reserved for issuance. Under the Stock Purchase Plan, employees are granted
the right to purchase  shares of common stock at a price per share that is equal
to the greater of (i) 85% of the  beginning of the quarter  market price or (ii)
90% of the average  market price during the quarter.  Purchases  are made at the
end of each fiscal  quarter.  Shares  issued  under this plan for the year ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, totaled 28,932 and 6,753, respectively.

7.   Income Taxes

Income  taxes are  accounted  for in  accordance  with  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the
use of the asset and liability approach of accounting for deferred income taxes.
Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are recognized on differences  between the
book and tax bases of assets and liabilities  using presently enacted tax rates.
The provision  (benefit) for income taxes is the tax payable or recoverable  for
the  period  and the  change  during  the  period in  deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities.

11.      Condensed Quarterly Financial Results (unaudited)

The following table sets forth certain unaudited condensed operating results for
each of the eight quarters in the two-year  period ended December 31, 1999. This
information  has  been  prepared  by  the  Company  on  the  same  basis  as the
Consolidated  Financial  Statements  appearing  elsewhere  in  this  report  and
includes,  in the opinion of management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of
normal  recurring   adjustments)  necessary  for  a  fair  presentation  of  the
information when read in conjunction with the Consolidated  Financial Statements
and notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The Company's operating results for
any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Earnings per share for each quarter are computed  independently  of earnings per
share for the year.  The sum of the  quarterly  earnings per share may not equal
the earnings per share for the year because of (i)  transactions  affecting  the
weighted  average  number of shares  outstanding  in each  quarter  and (ii) the
uneven distribution of earnings during the year.
