                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

   The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes to financial statements included in the Company's
Prospectus dated September 30, 1997. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position as of September 30, 1997, the results of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997 and
cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997 have been made.
The results of operations and cash flows for an interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows which may be
reported for the year or for any subsequent period.

1.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed in the
preparation of these financial statements.

   ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

   Accounts receivable are principally from individuals, distributors and
retailers of the Company's products. The Company performs periodic credit
evaluations and maintains allowances for potential credit losses of $830,430 and
$2,593,852 (unaudited) at December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1997,
respectively, and allowances for potential returns of approximately $1,796,859
and $5,075,000 (unaudited) at December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1997,
respectively.

   INCOME TAX STATUS

   For income tax purposes, the Company was an S corporation prior to September
30, 1997. Accordingly, net income and related timing differences which arise in
the recording of income and expense items for financial reporting and tax
reporting purposes were included in the individual tax returns of the S
corporation shareholders. Effective September 30, 1997, the Company terminated
its S corporation election, and, as a result, adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES ("SFAS No. 109"). SFAS
No. 109 requires that deferred income tax balances be recognized based on the
differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and
liabilities using the enacted tax rates.

   Upon adoption of SFAS No. 109 during the third quarter, the Company recorded
a benefit for income taxes which reflects a non-recurring deferred income tax
credit (the "FAS 109 Credit") of approximately $3.0 million partially offset by
a $1.8 million provision for income taxes payable. The FAS 109 Credit recognized
net deferred tax assets arising from book and tax basis differences that arose
primarily as a result of accounts receivable reserves. The $1.8 million in
income taxes payable relate to federal and state income taxes owed by the
Company as a result of an approximate $4.6 million in S corporation taxable
earnings which will be recognized by the Company, for tax purposes, in the
remainder of 1997 and during 1998.

The pro forma adjustment to reflect income taxes included in the accompanying
statements of income is for informational purposes only. Income taxes have been
provided at the estimated effective rate of 39.5%.

PRO FORMA NET INCOME PER SHARE

        Pro forma net income per common share and common share equivalents have
been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common
shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Pursuant to Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83, common share and common
share equivalents issued at prices below the assumed public offering price
during the 12-month period prior to the proposed public offering having been
included in the calculation as if they were outstanding for all periods
presented (using the treasury stock method and the initial public offering price
of $11.00 per share).

2.      NOTE PAYABLE TO BANK AND DIVIDENDS PAID TO SHAREHOLDERS

   On September 29, 1997, the Company borrowed $15,000,000 from a bank at a
variable interest rate of 6.25%. Such amount was borrowed in order to fund a
$15.4 million dividend paid to the Company's S corporation shareholders just
prior to terminating the Company's S corporation election. This amount
represented the Company's best estimate of undistributed tax earnings and will
be adjusted once the actual amount of S corporation undistributed tax earnings
is determined.

    The $15.0 million note payable to bank, which was payable on October 22,
1997, was repaid on October 6, 1997 with proceeds from the Company's initial
public offering.

3.      SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   On October 6, 1997, the Company closed on its initial public offering (the
"Offering") of 3.7 million shares of common stock of the Company. Of the shares
of common stock offered to the public 2.6 million shares of common stock were
sold by the Company and 1.1 million shares of common stock were sold by the
selling shareholders.

   On November 5, 1997, the Company closed on the underwriters' purchase of
225,000 additional shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of a portion
of their over-allotment option granted in the Offering. Of the shares exercised,
158,108 shares of common stock were sold by the Company and 66,892 shares of
common stock were sold by the selling shareholders.

   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET

   The accompanying unaudited pro forma balance sheet at September 30, 1997,
assumes the effects, on a pro forma basis, of the following transactions:
(a) the receipt of approximately $28.2 million received from the sale of
approximately 2.8 million shares of the Company's common stock, (b) the
repayment of the $15 million short term note payable to the bank, and (c) the
repayment of expenses of the Offering.

QUARTERS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997

REVENUES

        TOTAL REVENUES. The Company's total revenues increased 66% from $5.0
million in the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $8.3 million in the
comparable period of 1997.

        LICENSING FEES. Licensing fees increased 81% from $3.9 million in the
three months ended September 30, 1996 to $7.0 million in the comparable period
of 1997, primarily due to an increase in TRADESTATION sales and the introduction
of OPTIONSTATION in September 1996. The Company believes that the increased net
unit shipments of TRADESTATION were due to new marketing efforts, an emphasis on
providing customers with the ability to pay for products monthly over a 12-month
period and growth in the Company's sales and marketing organization.

<PAGE>



        OTHER REVENUES. Other revenues increased 12% from $1.1 million in the
three months ended September 30, 1996 to $1.2 million in the comparable period
of 1997, primarily due to an increase in minimum royalties under the Company's
license agreement with Dow Jones Markets offset by the impact of certain one
time payments received during the 1996 third quarter.

    OPERATING EXPENSES

        COST OF LICENSING FEES. Cost of licensing fees consists primarily of
product media, packaging and storage and inventory costs. Cost of licensing fees
as a percentage of licensing fees improved from 12% in the three months ended
September 30, 1996 to 8% in the comparable period of 1997, primarily due to
increased unit sales of higher-priced products as a percentage of total unit
sales.

        PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. Product development expenses include expenses
associated with the development of new products, enhancements to existing
products, testing of products and the creation of training manuals, and consist
primarily of salaries, other personnel costs and depreciation of computer and
related equipment. Product development expenses were $322,000 in the three
months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to $507,000 in the comparable period
of 1997, primarily due to an increase in the number of individuals employed in
product development. The Company believes that a significant level of product
development expenditures will be required to remain competitive, particularly as
it enters the institutional investor market. Accordingly, the Company
anticipates that the dollar amount of product development expense will increase
for the foreseeable future.

        SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
salaries for the customer support center and marketing personnel, commissions
and other personnel costs, shipping costs and marketing programs, including
advertising, brochures, direct mail programs and seminars to promote the
Company's products to investors. Sales and marketing expenses were $1.5 million
in the three months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to $3.0 million in the
comparable period of 1997, primarily due to increased advertising (including
print advertising, the use of sales seminars, television advertising and direct
mailers) of $855,000, personnel costs for the customer support center and
commissions of $507,000, telephone expenses of $91,000 and shipping costs of
$47,000. Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of licensing fees
increased from 40% in the three months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to
43% in the comparable period of 1997. The Company expects to continue hiring
additional personnel and anticipates that sales and marketing expenses will
increase in absolute dollar amount at least through the remainder of 1997.

        GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of employee related costs for support functions such as executive,
human resources, finance, information systems and administrative personnel as
well as external professional fees, rent and other facilities expense and
provision for bad debts. General and administrative expenses were $568,000 in
the three months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to $1.3 million in the
comparable period of 1997, primarily due to increases in the provision for bad
debts associated with increased revenues and increases in personnel, contract
labor and professional fees necessary to manage the growth of the Company. The
Company believes that the dollar amount of its general and administrative
expenses will increase as the Company incurs additional costs (including
directors' and officers' liability insurance, investor relations costs and
increased professional fees) related to being a public company.

    OTHER INCOME, NET

   Other income, net consists primarily of interest income from cash and cash
equivalents offset by interest expense related to the short term note payable to
bank during 1997 and also includes sales tax refunds received during 1996. The
Company generally invests in interest-bearing accounts and overnight
investments. The amount of interest income fluctuates based on the amount of
funds available for investment and the prevailing interest rates. Other income,
net decreased from $39,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1996 as
compared to an immaterial amount in the comparable period of 1997 primarily due
to the receipt of approximately $25,000 in sales tax refunds during August 1996
and interest expense related to the $15 million short term note payable to a
bank obtained during the last week of the quarter ended September 30, 1997. See
Note 2 to Notes to Financial Statements.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997

REVENUES

        TOTAL REVENUES. The Company's total revenues increased 75% from $13.1
million in the first nine months of 1996 to $22.9 million in the comparable
period of 1997.

        LICENSING FEES. Licensing fees increased 88% from $10.2 million in the
first nine months of 1996 to $19.1 million in the comparable period of 1997,
primarily due to an increase in TRADESTATION sales and, to a lesser extent, the
introduction of OPTIONSTATION in September 1996. The Company believes that the
increased net unit shipments of TRADESTATION were due to new marketing efforts,
an emphasis on providing customers with the ability to pay for products monthly
over a 12-month period and growth in the Company's sales and marketing
organization. The Company has increased its returns reserves during the first
nine months of 1997 to provide for the impact that its new marketing efforts may
have on returns.

        OTHER REVENUES. Other revenues increased 30% from $2.9 million in the
first nine months of 1996 to $3.8 million in the comparable period of 1997,
primarily due to an increase in minimum royalties under the Company's license
agreement with Dow Jones Markets.

    OPERATING EXPENSES

        COST OF LICENSING FEES. Cost of licensing fees as a percentage of
licensing fees improved from 13% in the first nine months of 1996 to 7% in the
comparable period of 1997, primarily due to increased unit sales of
higher-priced products as a percentage of total unit sales.

        PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. Product development expenses were $699,000 in the
first nine months of 1996 as compared to $1.4 million in the comparable period
of 1997, primarily due to an increase in the number of individuals employed in
product development. Product development expenses as a percentage of licensing
fees did not change significantly in the first nine months of 1996 as compared
to the comparable period of 1997.

        SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses were $4.1 million in
the first nine months of 1996 as compared to $8.0 million in the comparable
period of 1997, primarily due to increased advertising (including print
advertising, the use of sales seminars, television advertising and direct
mailers) of $2.3 million, personnel costs for the customer support center and
commissions of $1.1 million, shipping costs of $117,000, and telephone expenses
of $231,000.

   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses were $1.6
million in the first nine months of 1996 as compared to $3.9 million in the
comparable period of 1997, primarily due to increases in the provision for bad
debts associated with increased revenues, increases in personnel, contract labor
and professional fees necessary to manage the growth of the Company and rent
related to the Company's new corporate headquarters.

    OTHER INCOME, NET

        Other income, net decreased from $47,000 in the first nine months of
1996 to $18,000 in the comparable period of 1997 primarily due to the receipt of
approximately $25,000 in sales tax refunds during August 1996.

INCOME TAXES

   The benefit for income taxes in the third quarter of 1997 reflects a
non-recurring deferred income tax credit (the "FAS 109 Credit") of approximately
$3.0 million partially offset by a $1.8 million provision for income taxes
payable. Since 1988, and until September 1997, the Company elected for its
earnings to be taxed directly to the Company's shareholders as an S corporation
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. On September 30, 1997, the
Company terminated its S corporation election, and, as a result, recognized the
FAS 109 Credit to record net deferred tax assets arising from book and tax basis
differences that arose primarily as a result of accounts receivable reserves.
The $1.8 million in income

<PAGE>



taxes payable relate to federal and state income taxes owed by the Company as a
result of an approximate $4.6 million in S corporation taxable earnings which
will be recognized by the Company, for tax purposes, in the remainder of 1997
and during 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Cash provided by operating activities totaled $3.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $4.2 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in cash provided by operations in the
first nine months of 1997 was primarily attributable to an increase in the
growth of accounts receivable balances during the first nine months of 1997.
Accounts receivable growth increased during this period as a result of increased
sales generated by expanded marketing and sales efforts. Although the Company
has, since 1992, granted its customers extended payment terms, only recently
have they been extended from 10 to 12 months.

        The Company's investing activities used cash of $842,000 and $286,000 in
the first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The principal use of cash
in investing activities was for capital expenditures related to the acquisition
of computer and related equipment and software required to support expansion of
the Company's operations. Capital expenditures in 1997 also include purchases of
furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements related to the Company's move
to a new corporate headquarters in February 1997.

        The Company's financing activities used cash of $2.3 million and $2.5
million in the first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. Dividends to
the Company's S corporation shareholders increased by approximately $14.8
million, and were offset by the $15.0 million note payable obtained from a bank
during the third quarter of 1997 to finance the dividend paid on September 29,
1997. See Note 2 to Notes to Financial Statements.

        Assuming there is no significant change in the Company's business, the
Company believes that existing cash balances, including proceeds received from
the Company's initial public offering, and cash flow from operations will be
sufficient to meet its normal working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for at least the next twelve months.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

        In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE
("SFAS 128") which changes the method of calculating earnings per share. SFAS
128 requires the presentation of "basic" earnings per share and "diluted"
earnings per share on the face of the income statement. Basic earnings per share
is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the
weighted average shares of outstanding common stock. The calculation of diluted
earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share except that the
denominator includes dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and
warrants. The statement is effective for financial statements for periods ending
after December 15, 1997. The Company will adopt SFAS 128 in the fourth quarter
of 1997, as early adoption is not permitted. The following table presents pro
forma earnings per share amounts calculated in accordance with SFAS 128.

and Restated 1996 Incentive Stock Plan, the Company granted (i) on July 21,
1997, non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock to one employee; (ii) on August 4, 1997,
non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of 3,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock to one employee; (iii) on August 14, 1997, non-qualified
stock options to purchase an aggregate of 15,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock to three employees; (iv) on August 18, 1997, non-qualified stock options
to purchase an aggregate of 17,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock to one

July 21 and August 4, 14 and 18, 1997 was $7.25 per share and on September 29
and 30, 1997 was $11.00 per share (the initial public offering price of the
Company's Common Stock). All the foregoing stock options vest at the rate of
twenty (20%) percent per annum commencing on the first anniversary of the date
of grant (except that the 5,000 options granted to the consultant vest 100% six
months from the date of grant) and are exercisable through, but no later than,
ten years from the date of grant. The foregoing stock options were granted by
the Company in reliance upon the exemption from registration available under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

(D)     USE OF PROCEEDS

(1) The effective date of the Securities Act registration statement for which
    the use of proceeds is being disclosed is September 30, 1997, and the
    Securities and Exchange Commission file number assigned to the Company's
    Registration Statement on Form S-1 is 333-32077 (the "Registration
    Statement").

(2) The initial public offering of the Company (the "Offering") in connection
    with the Registration Statement commenced on October 1, 1997.

(3) The Offering did not terminate before any securities were sold.

(4) (i)    The Offering terminated with the closing on November 5, 1997
           of the purchase by the several underwriters of 225,000 shares of the
           Company's Common Stock (158,108 shares from the Company and 66,892
           shares from the selling shareholders) pursuant to a partial exercise
           by the several underwriters of their over-allotment option. The
           Offering terminated before the sale of all of the 4,255,000 shares of
           Common Stock registered pursuant to the Registration Statement
           (including the 555,000 shares of Common Stock registered solely to

    (ii)   The names of the managing underwriters are BancAmerica Robertson
           Stephens (formerly known as Robertson, Stephens and Company LLC),

    (iii)  The Registration Statement covered shares of Common Stock, $.01 par
           value, of the Company.

    (iv)   The total number of shares of Common Stock registered for the account
           of the Company was 2,990,000 shares with an aggregate offering price
           of $32,890,000 and for the account of the selling shareholders was
           1,265,000 shares with an aggregate offering price of $13,915,000. Of
           such total number of shares registered for the account of the
           Company, 2,758,108 shares
 

                                       13
<PAGE>



           of Common Stock were sold with an aggregate offering price of
           $30,339,188. Of the total number of shares registered for the account
           of the selling shareholders, 1,166,892 shares of Common Stock were
           sold with an aggregate offering price of $12,835,812.

    (v)    Since the effective date of the Registration Statement was September
           30, 1997 (the last day of the Company's reporting period with respect
           to this Form 10-Q) and the initial closing of the Offering was not
           until October 6, 1997, the following information is provided through
           November 5, 1997 (the date of the closing of the purchase of a
           portion of the over-allotment option shares by the several
           underwriters). The amount of expenses incurred for the Company's
           account in connection with the issuance and distribution of the
           shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the Registration
           Statement are as follows:

           (1) Underwriters discounts and commissions       $2,123,743.16

           (2) Finder's fees                                         0.00

           (3) Expenses paid to or for underwriters              8,673.00*

           (4) Other expenses                                  776,327.00*
                                                            --------------

           (5) Total Expenses                               $2,908,743.16*
                                                            ==============

           The expenses above marked with an asterisk (*) represent a reasonable
           estimate of the amount of expenses incurred instead of the actual
           amount of expenses. None of the foregoing expenses were paid to
           directors or officers of the Company or their associates or to
           persons owning ten (10%) percent or more of any class of equity
           securities of the Company or to any affiliates of the Company.
           Accordingly, all of the foregoing expenses were payments to third
           parties.

    (vi)   The estimated net offering proceeds to the Company after deducting
           the total expenses described in paragraph (v) above is
           $27,430,444.84.

    (vii)  The net offering proceeds used by the Company through November 5,
           1997, were $15,017,979 to repay a short-term bank loan (both
           principal and interest) which the Company obtained in order to pay
           immediately prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement
           a cash dividend to the Company's then existing shareholders equal to
           the Company's then estimate of the undistributed accumulated earnings
           during the period the Company was an S corporation. The balance of
           the net offering proceeds have been temporarily invested in tax-free,
           short-term, interest bearing instruments pending the use by the
           Company for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

    (viii) The use of the net offering proceeds as described in paragraph (vii)
           above does not represent a material change in the use of the proceeds
           described in the Company's prospectus dated September 30, 1997.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

During the quarter ended September 30, 1997, and prior to the Company's
Registration Statement becoming effective and the closing of the Offering, the
Company's shareholders by joint unanimous written consents of the Company's
shareholders and Board of Directors dated July 16, 1997, July 24, 1997, August
14, 1997 and September 22, 1997, authorized and approved various corporate
actions and matters, including, without limitation, the adoption of the Second
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Second Amended and Restated
Bylaws of the Company, the election of the Company's Board of Directors
