         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
(Unaudited)


(A)  CSC recognized a net special credit of $1.7 million, or 2 cents per
     share, in the current fiscal quarter as a result of recent developments
     at CSC Enterprises, a general partnership of which CSC, through one of
     its affiliates, is the managing general partner.  This net credit
     resulted from a tax benefit of $135 million and an after-tax special
     charge of $133.3 million.

     During the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 1997, several partners withdrew
     from CSC Enterprises.  As a result of these withdrawals, CSC Enterprises
     took actions that caused CSC to recognize an increase in the tax basis of
     certain assets.  As required by SFAS No. 109, this tax basis increase
     resulted in a deferred tax asset of $135 million and a corresponding
     reduction of CSC's provision for income taxes during the current fiscal
     quarter.

     In connection with these developments, CSC Enterprises reviewed its
     operations, its market opportunities and the carrying value of its
     assets.  Based on this review, plans were initiated during the current
     fiscal quarter to eliminate certain offerings and write down assets,
     primarily within its telecommunications operations.  As a result of these
     plans, CSC recognized an after-tax special charge of $133 million
     during the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 1997.  This special charge
     includes goodwill of $35 million, contract termination costs of $34
     million, deferred contract costs and other assets of $20 million,
     telecommunications software and accruals of $22 million,
     telecommunications property, equipment and intangible assets of
     $12 million and other costs of $10 million.

(B)  Primary earnings per common share are based on the weighted average
     number of common stock and common stock equivalent shares (dilutive stock
     options) outstanding of 78,520,000 and 77,677,000 respectively, for the
     three months ended June 27, 1997 and June 28, 1996 (see Part II,
     Exhibit 11).

(C)  No dividends were paid during the periods presented.  There were
     77,489,216 shares at June 27, 1997 and 76,924,836 shares at March
     28, 1997 of $1.00 par value common stock issued with 338,936 and
     332,220 shares, respectively, of treasury stock.

(D)  Cash payments for interest on indebtedness were $17,765,000 and
     $11,362,000 respectively, for the three months ended June 27, 1997 and
     June 28, 1996.  Cash payments for taxes on income were $25,216,000 and
     $9,354,000 respectively, for the three months ended June 27, 1996, and
     June 28, 1996.

(E)  The financial information reported, which is not necessarily indicative
     of the results for a full year, is unaudited but includes all adjustments
     which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation.  All such
     adjustments are normal recurring adjustments.

(F)  Certain reclassifications have been made and prior period financial 
     statements have been restated to reflect the August 1, 1996 acquisition 
     of Continuum, which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. 
     Continuum's expense classifications have been reclassified to conform to 
     CSC's presentation.  Continuum's interest income has been removed from 
     its revenues to conform to CSC's separate presentation of interest

</TABLE>

During the first quarter ended June 27, 1997, the Company's total revenue 
increased 14.2%, or $185 million, over the same period last year.  Commercial 
revenues grew 26.5%, or $227 million over the same quarter of last year.  U.S. 
Federal revenues decreased 9.4%, or $42 million.

U.S. commercial revenues grew 27.2% or $130 million during the first quarter 
of fiscal 1998 over the same period last year.  Approximately half of the 
growth was provided by information technology outsourcing contracts, including 
recent contracts with J.P. Morgan and DuPont.  The remainder is derived 
principally from continued demand for consulting and systems integration 
services, the acquisition of American Practice Management and growth at CSC 
Financial Services Group.

Europe revenues grew $81 million or 26.8% during the first quarter of fiscal 
1998 over the same period last year.  Growth came principally from new 
outsourcing business signed last year; from the acquisition last year of 75% 
of Datacentralen, a major provider of information technology services in 
Denmark; and from CSC's German SAP consulting practice.  Growth in Other 
International revenues resulted mainly from expansion of our international 
financial services business and Australian operations.

U.S. federal government revenue accounts for 27.1% of total revenue for the 
quarter compared to 34.2% for the first quarter of 1997.  Federal revenue 
decreased 9.4% or $42 million, principally due to the completion last year 
several contracts.  During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company 
announced $126 million in new federal contracts.

</TABLE>

Comparing the first quarters of fiscal 1998 and 1997, total costs and expenses 
remained at a similar level as a percentage of revenue.  Cost of services as a 
percentage of revenue decreased due to the continued shift in the Company's 
revenue mix toward commercial operations, and performance improvements 
within 
European operations and the Financial Services Group.

Selling, general and administrative costs also increased as a percentage of 
revenue due to growth in commercial operations relative to U.S. Federal 
business.  This increase was offset in part by improvement in the selling, 
general and administrative percentage within the Company's outsourcing and 
U.S. consulting operations.

Special Charge

The results of operations for the quarter ended June 27, 1997 include a net 
special credit of $1.7 million, or 2 cents per share, resulting from recent 
developments at CSC Enterprises, a general partnership which operates the 
Company's credit services operations and carries out other business strategies 
through acquisition and investment. This net credit resulted from a tax 
benefit of $135 million and a special charge of $208.4 ($133.3 million after 
tax).

During the fiscal quarter ended June 27, 1997, several partners withdrew from 
CSC Enterprises.  As a result of these withdrawals, CSC Enterprises took 
actions that caused CSC to recognize an increase in the tax basis of certain 
assets.  As required by SFAS No. 109, this tax basis increase resulted in a 
deferred tax asset of $135 million and a corresponding reduction of CSC's 
provision for income taxes during the current fiscal quarter.

In connection with these developments, CSC Enterprises reviewed its 
operations, its market opportunities and the carrying value of its assets.  
Based on this review, plans were initiated during the current fiscal quarter 
to eliminate certain offerings and write down assets, primarily within its 
telecommunications operations.  As a result of these plans, CSC recognized an 
after-tax special charge of $133 million during the fiscal quarter ending 
June 27, 1997.  This special charge includes goodwill of $35 million, contract 
termination costs of $34 million, deferred contract costs and other assets of 
$20 million, telecommunications software and accruals of $22 million, 
telecommunications property, equipment and intangible assets of
$12 million and other costs of $10 million.

Income Before Taxes

Reflecting the Company's revenue growth, income before taxes and before 
special items increased to $80.8 million, up $9.0 million, or 12.6% compared 
with the same quarter last year.  The Company's profit margin before special 
items was 5.4% compared to 5.5% for the same quarter last year.

Net Income

Earnings before the special items were $50.9 million for the first quarter of 
fiscal 1998, up $5.6 million, or 12.4%, over the same quarter last year. This 
year's first quarter earnings per share of 67 cents increased 15.5% over the 
58 cents for last year's first quarter.  The current quarter earnings include 
a net special credit of $1.7 million or 2 cents per share.

Cash Flows

Cash provided by operating activities was $10.3 million for the first quarter, 
compared with a use of cash of $11.3 million during the same period last year. 
Higher earnings and non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses were the 
primary drivers of the improvement.







                                       10


<PAGE>

The Company's cash expenditures for investing activities totaled $185.5 
million for the most recent quarter versus $130.3 million during the same 
period of last year.  The increase principally relates to the acquisitions of 
outsourcing assets in connection with the DuPont Contract and assets 
purchases 
within the European Group.

Cash provided by financing activities was $140.2 million for the most recent 
quarter versus $60.9 million for the same period last year.  Current year 
financing activities utilized the Company's established credit lines and 
commercial paper program. 

Financial Condition

During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company's capital outlays 
included $181.4 million of business investments in the form of fixed asset 
purchases and acquisitions. These amounts were funded from operating cash 
flows, additional debt and existing cash, which decreased from $110.7 million 
to $75.8 million.  As a result of the net increase in borrowings, the 
Company's debt-to-total capitalization ratio increased to 31.1% at June 27, 
1997 versus 28.4% at fiscal 1997 year end.

It is management's opinion that the Company will be able to meet its liquidity 
and cash needs for the foreseeable future through the combination of cash 
flows from operating activities, cash balances, unused borrowing capacity and 
other financing activities, including the issuance of debt and/or equity 
securities.
