U.S. COMMERCIAL MARKETS
 
    CSC is a major provider of outsourcing services, including systems analysis,
applications development, network operations and data center management. Current
outsourcing activities include recent contracts with J.P. Morgan, Bath Iron
Works, ING Financial Services International, Hyatt Hotels Corp. and Baker &
Taylor.
 
    The Company also provides consulting and technical services in the
development and integration of computer and communications systems, as well as
various industry-specific IT services. The Company's experience includes
business process reengineering, the setting of information technology strategy,
the development of information systems for a wide range of applications and the
operation of computer facilities.
 
                                       1
<PAGE>
    The Company has expertise in information systems development for state and
local governments and for the vertical-industry markets of insurance, banking,
other financial services, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods,
distribution, publishing, utilities, manufacturing and communications. Other
capabilities, such as office automation and communications network engineering,
operation and management, range across industry needs in general.
 
    The Company is a leading supplier of large-scale claims processing and other
insurance-related services to clients in the public sector. It has extensive
expertise in the development and operation of automated systems that efficiently
manage and process large volumes of data, including programs with New York
Medicaid, the U.S. Department of Labor, and the Federal Emergency Management
Agency.
 
    The Company markets business information systems, software and services to
the insurance and financial services industries and to the managed healthcare
industry, clinics and physicians. In addition, CSC provides services for
administering life and disability insurance for credit loans and mortgages,
collateral-protection insurance and warranty insurance.
 
    Also in the financial services arena, the Company provides consumer credit
reports and account-management services to thousands of credit grantors
nationwide. Through an agreement with Equifax Inc., another major credit
services company, the Company offers retail chains and other large credit
grantors the benefits of a national file of consumer credit histories. The
national file enables customers to obtain credit information from a single
source, instead of dealing with multiple reporting services.
 
U.S. FEDERAL MARKET
 
    For more than three decades, CSC has provided the United States federal
government with IT services, ranging from traditional systems integration and
outsourcing to advanced technical undertakings and complex project management.
CSC has extensive experience in the development of software for mission-critical
systems for defense and civil agency applications, and also provides systems
engineering and technical assistance in network management, satellite
communications, intelligence, aerospace, logistics and related high-technology
fields.
 
    Recent awards include contracts to provide systems engineering and technical
assistance at the U.S. Army Space and Strategic Defense Command, and to provide
specialized technical assistance, including systems design and implementation,
to the Department of Commerce Patent and Trademark Office.
 
    Other typical activities include supporting the Federal Aviation
Administration's National EnRoute Software system, developing the next
generation of NAVSTAR Global Positioning System satellites for the Air Force and
operating the computer center and supporting management information systems for
the Air Force's flight simulation test facilities at the Arnold Engineering
Development Center. Federal activities also include providing command, control
and communication technical engineering and integration to the U.S. Army
Communications Electronics Command, upgrading the Navy's Aegis Combat Weapons
Systems and providing technical information systems security applications to the
Department of Defense, among other federal agencies and departments.
 
EUROPE AND OTHER INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
 
    The Company's international operations, with major offices in the United
Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Australia,
provide a wide range of information technology services to commercial and public
sector clients. CSC provides substantially the same services to its
international customers that it provides to U.S. customers. These services span
the range of consulting and professional services, systems integration, and
outsourcing. Current activities include major outsourcing contracts with British
Aerospace, Anglian Water, Guinness PLC, the National Health Service in Scotland
and ICI Paints. Also, as part of the fiscal 1995 acquisition of Ploenzke A.G.
and fiscal 1997 acquisition of Datacentralen, CSC significantly expanded its
European consulting operations.

                                  COMPETITION
 
    The information technology market in which CSC competes is not dominated by
a single company or a small number of companies. A substantial number of
companies offer services that overlap and are competitive with those offered by
CSC. Some of these are large industrial firms, including computer manufacturers
and major aerospace firms that have greater financial resources than CSC and in
some cases may have greater capabilities to perform services similar to those
provided by CSC.
 
    The Company's ability to obtain business is dependent upon its ability to
offer better strategic concepts and technical solutions, lower prices, a quicker
response, or a combination of these factors. In the opinion of Company
management, CSC is positioned to compete effectively in U.S. and international
commercial markets based on its technology and systems expertise and large
project management skills. These skills have been gained through years of
experience in providing IT services to the federal government and to large
commercial outsourcing clients. It is also management's opinion that CSC's
competitive position is enhanced by its recognized position as a leader in
management consulting and the full spectrum of services that it provides.
 
                                   EMPLOYEES
 
    The Company currently employs approximately 42,200 persons, of which 31,500
are highly-trained professionals. The services provided by CSC require
proficiency in many fields, such as computer sciences, mathematics, physics,
engineering, astronomy, geology, operations research, economics, statistics and
business administration.

</TABLE>
 
    For fiscal 1997 compared to 1996, 26% growth in the Company's global
commercial operations combined with 4% growth in revenues from the U.S. Federal
Government to generate overall growth of 18%.
 
    Within the Company's global commercial operations, U.S. commercial revenues
grew 22% or $388.9 million during fiscal 1997. Nearly half of the growth was
provided by increases in outsourcing, which covers the full range of a client's
information technology activities. Fiscal 1997 outsourcing revenue growth was
derived from additional services provided to the Hughes Electronics Corporation
("Hughes") and new contracts, including the Pinnacle Alliance with J.P. Morgan,
Bath Iron Works, ING Financial Services International, Hyatt Hotels Corp. and
Baker & Taylor. The remainder of the U.S. commercial revenue growth is derived
principally from increased demand for consulting and systems integration
services, the acquisition of American Practice Management ("APM") and growth
within the financial services sector.
 
    Effective August 1, 1996, the Company acquired The Continuum Company, Inc.
("Continuum"), which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Accordingly,
CSC's consolidated financial statements for periods prior to August 1, 1996 have
been restated to include the financial position and results of operations of
Continuum, which now operates as CSC's Financial Services Group. For its fiscal
year ended March 31, 1996, Continuum reported $498.3 million of revenue.
 
    CSC's U.S. commercial revenue growth for fiscal 1996 was also led by large
increases in commercial outsourcing, including contracts with Hughes, Southern
New England Telecommunications Corporation and Scott Paper Company. The
Company's U.S. consulting operations contributed further to the growth.
 
    CSC's European operations generated revenue growth of 33% or $365.3 million
for fiscal 1997 versus 1996. Three factors generated the bulk of the Company's
international growth: (1) the acquisition of two major Scandinavian providers of
information technology services, (2) the continued expansion of outsourcing
business in the United Kingdom, including a full year of activity on the
Company's contract to manage all of the information technology operations of
Anglian Water, and (3) increased demand for consulting services in Germany,
especially in the area of SAP payroll-related applications. The majority of
fiscal 1996 European revenue growth came from significant increases in
outsourcing and the acquisition of Ploenzke A.G. in Germany.
 
    As noted in the above table, other international revenues increased 20% to
$345.8 million during fiscal 1997. The growth is principally due to increased
outsourcing activity in Australia and the acquisition of McDonnell Information
Systems PTY, Ltd., a leading provider of healthcare information systems to the
Australasian healthcare industry. For fiscal 1996 versus 1995, revenue growth of
14% is also attributable principally to new business in Australia.

</TABLE>
 
    During fiscal 1997 and 1996, the Company's Federal revenue gains were
attributable in part to additional revenue on task order contracts, such as the
Defense Enterprise Integration Services contract with the Defense Integration
Systems Agency and additional ordering of the JCALS system, a management
information system based on a distributed database infrastructure with
electronic publishing applications for the U.S. Department of Defense. Fiscal
1997 and 1996 revenue gains also were attributable in part to the mid-fiscal
1996 award of the Air Force contract at the Arnold Engineering Development
Center. Revenue gains during 1997 and 1996 were partially offset by the loss of
three civil contracts and restrained federal spending.
 
    During fiscal 1997, CSC announced winning federal contracts with a value of
$2.1 billion, compared with the $2.4 billion and $1.3 billion announced during
fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.

</TABLE>
 
COSTS OF SERVICES
 
    The Company's costs of services as a percent of revenue increased to 78.6%
during fiscal 1997 from 77.9% during fiscal 1996. The increase is due primarily
to excess costs in the Company's U.S. telecommunications operations and a
decline in telecommunications software sales. Costs of services as a percent of
revenue also increased in the Company's European operations, but were offset by
improvements within U.S. operations.
 
    The U.S. improvement includes lower costs of services as a percentage of
revenue at the Financial Services Group and the newly acquired APM, as well as
an ongoing shift in the mix of business toward outsourcing. Outsourcing
generally carries a lower costs-of-services percentage and higher depreciation
percentage compared to the Company's federal, consulting and systems integration
operations. The decrease in costs of services during fiscal 1996 was primarily
related to the shift in the mix of business toward outsourcing.
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
 
    As noted in the table above, selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses improved as a percent of revenue during fiscal 1997 to 8.6%, down from
9.9% for fiscal 1996. The Company's European operations were the primary
contributor to the 1997 improvement. In addition, the SG&A improvement in Europe
more than offset the increase in European costs of services as a percent of
revenue described above. Improvements in SG&A were also attained in the
Company's U.S. federal operations. Partially offsetting these improvements was
the effect of the Company's acquisition of APM and growth within the Company's
Financial Services Group, where SG&A costs as a percent of revenue are above the
corporate average.
 
    For fiscal 1996, SG&A as a percent of revenue improved to 9.9% from 10.2%
for fiscal 1995. This improvement was achieved across all market sectors served
by CSC.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
    Depreciation and amortization expense during fiscal 1997 was 5.9% of the
Company's total revenue, versus 5.7% and 5.0% during fiscal 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The increases during fiscal 1997 and 1996 principally reflect the
Company's investments in computer equipment and software, especially within
CSC's outsourcing activities, as described above.
 
INTEREST
 
    Interest expense, net of interest income, was $32.3 million for fiscal 1997,
up from $32.1 million for fiscal 1996 and $27.3 million for fiscal 1995. The
fiscal 1996 increase is due principally to higher borrowing to fund the
Company's acquisitions and investments in computer equipment and software.
 
SPECIAL CHARGES
 
    The fiscal 1997 special charge represents costs and expenses related to the
August 1 acquisition of Continuum. The amount of the charge, net of income tax
benefits on the tax deductible portion, is $35.3 million or 45 cents per share.
The charge is comprised of $11.0 million for investment banking and other merger
expenses; $11.8 million related to the write-off of certain capitalized
software, other assets and intangibles; and $26.1 million related to the
elimination of duplicate data-processing facilities, employee severance costs
and contract termination costs.
 
    The fiscal 1996 special charges were largely related to Continuum's
acquisitions of Hogan Systems, Inc. and SOCS, a Paris-based software and
services company. The special charges of $76.1 million included a $26.0 million
non-cash charge resulting from the write-off of certain software development
activities at SOCS, restructuring and transaction costs of $19.4 million, and
adjustments to the carrying value of certain operating assets of $30.7 million.
The $19.4 million charge includes $9.6 million of transaction and $9.8 million
of restructuring costs (which includes the consolidation of facilities and data
processing and employee terminations). The $30.7 million charge includes $20.2
million to capitalized software, $8.7 million to allowances for certain
receivables and $1.8 million to other intangibles.
 
    Special charges for fiscal 1995 include a loss on the sale of the Company's
tax processing operation during January 1995. The resulting pre-tax loss of $3.7
million was reduced by related income tax effects of $2.8 million, yielding a
net loss of $0.9 million.

</TABLE>
 
    Income before taxes improved during fiscal 1997 as a percentage of revenue.
The .5% improvement during fiscal 1997 to a margin of 6.3% before the impact of
special charges relates principally to the improvement in SG&A expenses.
Partially offsetting the improvement were increases in costs of services and
depreciation and amortization as a percent of revenue.
 
    During fiscal 1996, income before special charges and taxes decreased
slightly as a percentage of revenue because of proportionately higher
depreciation and amortization expenses partially offset by improvements in costs
of services and SG&A.
 
TAXES
 
    The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax earnings was
36.6%, 44.4% and 35.1% for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The fiscal
1996 rate is significantly higher because of the impact of the non-deductible
portions of acquisition-related special charges.

</TABLE>
 
    During fiscal 1997, the Company's net income margin improved to 3.4% from
2.3%. The special charges incurred by Continuum during fiscal 1996 reduced net
income by 1.3% of revenue or $61.7 million. The special charge incurred during
fiscal 1997 reduced net income by .7% of revenue or $35.3 million.
 
    Before the special charges, the net earnings margin for fiscal 1997, 1996
and 1995 was 4.1%, 3.6% and 3.8%, respectively. The 1997 improvement is
primarily attributable to the reduction of SG&A as a percent of revenue and a
lower income tax rate, partially offset by the increase in costs of services as
a percent of revenue. The decline in net income margin from fiscal 1995 to 1996
is due to higher depreciation and amortization expenses and a higher effective
tax rate, partially offset by reduced costs of services and SG&A expenses as a
percent of revenue.

</TABLE>
 
    Historically, the majority of the Company's cash has been provided from
operating activities. The increases in cash from operations during fiscal 1997
and 1996 are primarily due to higher earnings and non-cash charges (depreciation
and amortization), partially offset by increased working capital requirements.
 
    The Company's investments principally relate to purchases of computer
equipment and software that support the Company's expanding commercial
operations. Investments include computer equipment purchased at the inception of
outsourcing contracts as well as subsequent upgrades, expansion or replacement
of these client-supporting assets. The Company's investments also include a
significant number of business acquisitions during fiscal 1995 through 1997.
 
    As described above, a majority of the Company's capital investments have
been funded by cash from operations. During each of fiscal 1997 and 1995, the
Company, through affiliates, issued $150 million of term debt. The Company also
received $196.3 million in cash from a four million common share offering during
fiscal 1995.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    The balance of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments was $110.7
million at March 28, 1997, $113.9 million at March 29, 1996 and $207.6 million
at March 31, 1995. During this period, the Company's earnings have added
substantially to equity. During fiscal 1995, equity was augmented by the $196.3
million net proceeds from the Company's common share offering noted above. At
the end of fiscal 1997, CSC's ratio of debt to total capitalization was 28%.

    During fiscal 1997, the Company increased its affiliates' credit agreement
to provide stand-by support for commercial paper from $350 million to $490
million. At March 28, 1997, $193.1 million was available for borrowing under
this program, up from $103.2 million at March 29, 1996.
 
    In the opinion of management, CSC will be able to meet its liquidity and
cash needs for the foreseeable future through the combination of cash flows from
operating activities, unused borrowing capacity and other financing activities.
If these resources need to be augmented, major additional cash requirements
would likely be financed by the issuance of debt and/or equity securities.

DIVIDENDS
 
    It has been the Company's policy to invest earnings in the growth of the
Company rather than distribute earnings as dividends. This policy, under which
dividends have not been paid since fiscal 1969, is expected to continue, but is
subject to regular review by the Board of Directors.

            INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULE
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Computer Sciences Corporation
El Segundo, California
 
    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Computer
Sciences Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 28, 1997 and
March 29, 1996, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended March 28, 1997. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 5(a). 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. These consolidated financial
statements and financial statement schedule give retroactive effect to the
merger of Computer Sciences Corporation and The Continuum Company, Inc. on
August 1, 1996, which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests as
described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. We did not audit
the financial statements of The Continuum Company, Inc. as of March 31, 1996 and
for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1996. Such statements
reflect aggregate total assets constituting 12% for 1996, and aggregate total
revenues constituting 11% and 11% in 1996 and 1995 respectively, of the related
consolidated totals. Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose
report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for The Continuum Company, Inc. is based solely on the report
of the other auditor.
 
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the report of the other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors,
such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Computer Sciences Corporation and Subsidiaries as of
March 28, 1997 and March 29, 1996, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 28, 1997, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion,
based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, such financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
STOCKHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Continuum Company, Inc.
 
    We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of The Continuum Company,
Inc. as of March 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended March 31, 1996 (not presented separately herein). The
consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the acquisition of
Hogan Systems, Inc. in March 1996, which has been accounted for using the
pooling of interests method as described in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
management of The Continuum Company, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
1995 and 1994 financial statements of Hogan Systems, Inc., which statements
reflect total assets constituting 33% as of March 31, 1995 and net income
constituting approximately 19% and 27% for the years ended March 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement totals.
Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished
to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for Hogan
Systems, Inc. for 1995 and 1994, is based solely on the report of other
auditors.
 
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion, based on our audits, and for 1995 and 1994 the report of
other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The
Continuum Company, Inc. at March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended March 31, 1996, after giving effect to the merger of Hogan Systems,
Inc., as described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
    As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, during the
year ended March 31, 1994, The Continuum Company, Inc. changed its method of
accounting for income taxes.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Hogan Systems, Inc.
 
    In our opinion, the consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated
statements of income, of cash flows and of changes in shareholders' equity as of
and for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1995 (not presented
separately herein) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows of Hogan Systems, Inc. and its
subsidiaries (Hogan) as of and for each of the two years in the period ended
March 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements are the responsibility of Hogan's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards 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. We have not audited the consolidated financial statements of Hogan for
any period subsequent to March 31, 1995.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include those of Computer
Sciences Corporation, its subsidiaries and those joint ventures and partnerships
over which it exercises control, hereafter collectively referred to as "CSC" or
"the Company." All material intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated.
 
    BUSINESS COMBINATION
 
    On August 1, 1996, CSC acquired The Continuum Company, Inc. ("Continuum").
Upon consummation of the merger, Continuum became a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company. Each outstanding share of Continuum common stock was converted into
 .79 of a share of common stock of the Company and each outstanding option to
purchase shares of Continuum common stock was converted into an option to
purchase .79 shares of CSC common stock. The acquisition has been accounted for
as a pooling of interests, and previously reported consolidated financial
statements of the Company for periods ended prior to August 1, 1996 have been
restated to include the financial position and results of operations of
Continuum.
 
    OTHER ACQUISITIONS
 
    On March 15, 1996, Continuum, prior to its merger with CSC, acquired Hogan
Systems, Inc. ("Hogan") through the issuance of 4,814,000 shares of its common
stock (equivalent to 3,803,000 shares of CSC's common stock). The acquisition
was accounted for as a pooling of interests and, accordingly, the Company's
consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the results of
Hogan for all periods presented.
 
    During the three years ended March 28, 1997, the Company made a number of
acquisitions in addition to those described above which, either individually or
collectively, are not material. In conjunction with business combinations
accounted for as purchases, the Company acquired assets with an estimated fair
value of $199,302,000, $34,497,000 and $63,102,000; and assumed liabilities of
$125,511,000, $18,628,000 and $85,465,000 for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995
respectively. The excess of cost of businesses acquired over related net assets
was $139,504,000, $22,448,000 and $103,626,000 for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
 
    INCOME RECOGNITION
 
    The Company provides services under fixed price, cost-based, time and
materials, and level of effort contracts. For fixed price contracts, income is
recorded on the basis of the estimated percentage of completion of services
rendered. Losses, if any, on fixed price contracts are recognized during the
period in which the loss is determined. For cost-based contracts, income is
recorded by applying an estimated factor to costs as incurred, such factor being
determined by the contract provisions and prior experience. For time and
materials and level of effort types of contracts, income is recorded as the
costs are incurred, income being the difference between such costs and the
agreed-upon billing amounts.
 
    Revenues from certain information processing services are recorded at the
time the service is utilized by the customer. Revenues from sales of proprietary
software are generally recognized upon receipt of a signed contract or other
form of evidence documenting a customer commitment, however, if significant
customization is part of the transaction, such revenues are recognized over the
period of delivery.

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
    The Company's depreciation and amortization policies are as follows:
 
<TABLE>
<S>                                          <C>
Property and Equipment:
  Buildings................................  10 to 40 years
  Computers and related equipment..........  3 to 10 years
  Furniture and other equipment............  2 to 10 years
                                             Shorter of lease term or useful
  Leasehold improvements...................  life
Investments and Other Assets:
  Purchased and internally developed
    software...............................  2 to 10 years
  Credit information files.................  10 to 20 years
  Excess of cost of businesses acquired
    over related net assets................  Up to 40 years
  Deferred contract costs..................  Contract life
</TABLE>
 
    For financial reporting purposes, computer equipment is depreciated using
either the straight-line or sum-of-the-years'-digits method, depending on the
nature of the equipment's use. The cost of other property and equipment, less
applicable residual values, is depreciated on the straight-line method.
Depreciation commences when the specific asset is complete, installed and ready
for normal use. Investments and other assets are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the years indicated above.
 
    Included in purchased and internally developed software are unamortized
capitalized software development costs of $71,709,000 and $51,205,000 as of
March 28, 1997 and March 29, 1996, respectively. The related amortization
expense was $20,073,000, $19,947,000 and $8,814,000 for fiscal years 1997, 1996
and 1995, respectively. During March 1996, $20,200,000 of capitalized software
was written off to reflect a decline in net realizable value associated
primarily with changes in market conditions and changes in business strategy
relating to certain banking products.
 
    Included in other assets are deferred contract costs related to the initial
purchase of assets under outsourcing contracts. The balance of such costs, net
of amortization, was $89,378,000 and $99,551,000 for fiscal 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The related amortization expense was $12,112,000, $12,764,000 and
$11,601,000 for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
    The Company evaluates at least annually the recoverability of its excess
cost of businesses acquired over related net assets. In assessing
recoverability, the current and future profitability of the related operations
are considered, along with management's plans with respect to the operations and
the projected undiscounted cash flows.
 
    CASH FLOWS
 
    Cash payments for interest on indebtedness and taxes on income are as

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    For purposes of reporting cash and cash equivalents, the Company considers
all investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to
be cash equivalents. The Company's investments consist of high quality
securities issued by a number of institutions having high credit ratings,
thereby limiting the Company's exposure to concentrations of credit risk. With
respect to financial instruments, the Company's carrying amounts of its other
current assets and liabilities were deemed to approximate their market values
due to their short maturity. The Company has no material hedge contracts with
respect to its foreign exchange or interest rate positions
 
    USE OF ESTIMATES
 
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions, in particular estimates of anticipated contract costs utilized in
the revenue recognition process, that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
 
    EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
    Primary earnings per common share are computed on the basis of the weighted
average number of shares of common stock plus common stock equivalents (stock
options) outstanding during the year. Fully diluted earnings per common share
are not presented since dilution is less than three percent.
 
    During February 1995, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock
through a public offering, resulting in net proceeds of $196,290,000. The
proceeds were used to reduce short-term indebtedness and for general corporate
purposes, including the financing of working capital needs and capital
expenditures. If the reduction of indebtedness and the offering of related
shares had occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1995, the corresponding effect on
earnings per share for the year would not have been significant.
 
    Shares used to compute earnings per share are as follows:

    ACCOUNTING CHANGES
 
    Effective for fiscal 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This statement
requires that such assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable and
that such assets be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. The
adoption of SFAS No. 121 during fiscal 1997 did not have a material impact on
results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    Also effective for fiscal 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and, as permitted by this standard,
will continue to apply the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 to its stock options. This statement requires
footnote disclosure of the pro forma impact on net income and earnings per share
of the compensation cost that would have been recognized if the fair value of
all stock-based awards was recorded in the income statement.
 
    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    During fiscal 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128, "Earnings per Share." This statement replaces the presentation of primary
earnings per share with basic earnings per share, and will require dual
presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income
statement. For CSC, diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution
that could occur if outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company's
common stock were exercised. As specified in the statement, the Company will
apply the statement beginning with its third quarter of fiscal 1998, and
earnings per share presentations will include restatement of prior period data
presented. For fiscal 1997, basic earnings per share were $2.53 and diluted
earnings per share were $2.46 under the provisions of SFAS No. 128.
 
    RECLASSIFICATIONS
 
    Certain reclassifications have been made in connection with the Company's
acquisitions which were accounted for as poolings of interests.
 
NOTE 2--SPECIAL CHARGES
 
    The fiscal 1997 special charge represents costs and expenses related to the
August 1 acquisition of Continuum. The amount of the charge, net of income tax
benefits on the tax deductible portion, is $35,280,000 or 45 cents per share.
The charge is comprised of $11,040,000 for investment banking and other merger
expenses; $11,785,000 related to the write-off of certain capitalized software,
other assets and intangibles; and $26,104,000 related to the elimination of
duplicate data processing facilities, employee severance costs and contract
termination costs. At March 28, 1997, $7,184,000 of the $26,104,000 amount is
reflected in accrued expenses.
 
    In connection with the fiscal 1996 acquisition of Hogan discussed in note 1,
Continuum effected a plan to integrate, restructure and realign its expanded
business. As a result, approximately $50,100,000 of special charges were
expensed, including $9,600,000 of transaction and $9,800,000 of restructuring
costs (which includes the consolidation of facilities and data processing and
employee terminations). In addition, non-cash adjustments to the carrying value
of certain tangible and intangible assets of $30,700,000 were recorded,
including $20,200,000 to capitalized software (see note 1).
 
    Fiscal 1996 charges also included $26,000,000, related to an acquisition,
which was assigned to purchased research and development and subsequently
expensed with no income tax benefit.

    During fiscal 1996, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its
examination of the Company's consolidated federal income tax returns for fiscal
years 1987 through 1991, and assessed the Company additional federal income tax
plus interest. The Company filed a protest regarding the assessment and is
currently in the final stages of resolving the issue with the Appeals Division
of the IRS. In the opinion of management the results of the appeal will not have
a material effect on the financial statements.

    At March 28, 1997, the weighted average interest rate on the Company's
commercial paper was 5.4%. During September 1995, CSC Enterprises (see note 11)
entered into a credit agreement to provide standby support for the commercial
paper program. The standby agreement was increased from $350,000,000 to
$490,000,000 during September 1996 and expires during September 1999.
 
    Capitalized lease liabilities shown above represent amounts due under leases
for the use of computers and related equipment. Included in property and
equipment are related assets of $11,823,000 (1997) and $10,362,000 (1996), less
accumulated amortization of $6,055,000 and $4,396,000, respectively.
 
    Certain of the Company's borrowing arrangements contain covenants that
require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and that limit the
amount of dividend payments. Under the most restrictive requirement,
approximately $862 million of retained earnings were available for cash
dividends at March 28, 1997.
 
    The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt is $640 million at March
28, 1997, as shown above. The corresponding fair value, as defined by SFAS No.
107, approximates the carrying value using the current rates available to the
Company for debt of the same remaining maturities.
 
    Maturities of long-term debt are $9,622,000 (1998), $10,233,000 (1999),
$452,111,000 (2000), $0 (2001), $156,000,000 (2002) and $12,498,000 thereafter.

NOTE 6--RETIREMENT PLANS
 
    PENSIONS
 
    The Company and its subsidiaries have several pension plans, as described
below.
 
    A contributory, defined benefit pension plan is generally available to U.S.
employees. The benefits under this plan are based on years of participation and
the employee's compensation over the entire period of participation. It is the
Company's funding policy to make contributions to the plan as required by
applicable regulations. Certain non-U.S. employees are enrolled in defined
benefit pension plans in the country of domicile. The benefits for these plans
generally are based on years of participation and the employee's average
compensation during the final years of employment. In addition, the Company has
a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) and a Nonemployee Director
Retirement Plan, which are nonqualified, noncontributory pension plans. The SERP
is a defined benefit retirement plan for designated officers and key executives
of the Company. It restores benefits limited by tax regulations and provides for
additional benefits based on years of service and the participant's average
compensation during a final period of employment.
 
    Net periodic pension cost for U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans included the
following components:

Company's common stock. During fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company
contributed $29,772,000, $20,809,000 and $18,252,000, respectively.
 
    OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
    The Company provides healthcare and life insurance benefits for certain
retired U.S. employees, generally for those employed prior to August 1992. It is
the Company's funding policy to make contributions to the related plans as
required for recovery on government contracts. Most non-U.S. employees are
covered by government sponsored programs at no direct cost to the Company other
than related payroll taxes. The net periodic post-retirement benefit costs,
relating principally to retiree healthcare, amounted to $4,931,000, $5,100,000
and $5,368,000 in fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

    The assumed rate of return on plan assets was 7.0%, and the discount rate
used to estimate the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation was 7.5% for
both fiscal 1997 and 1996. Plan assets include indexed and short-term investment
funds. The assumed healthcare cost trend rate used in measuring the expected
benefit obligation was 9.0% for fiscal 1997, declining to 5.0% for 2005 and
subsequent years. A one-percentage point increase in the assumed healthcare cost
trend rate would increase the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation as
of March 28, 1997, and the net periodic post-retirement benefit cost for fiscal
year 1997 by $3,984,000 and $518,000, respectively.

    The Company has operating leases for the use of certain property and
equipment. Substantially all operating leases are noncancelable or cancelable
only by the payment of penalties. All lease payments are based on the lapse of
time but include, in some cases, payments for insurance, maintenance and
property taxes. There are no purchase options on operating leases at favorable
terms, but most leases have one or more renewal options. Certain leases on real
property are subject to annual escalations for increases in utilities and
property taxes. Lease rental expense amounted to $162,777,000 (1997),
$148,088,000 (1996), and $138,222,000 (1995).

fiscal years ended March 28, 1997, March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, the
Company incurred aggregate expenses of $22,788,000, $22,647,000 and $15,662,000,
respectively, related thereto, which are included in costs of services.
 
    CONTINGENCIES
 
    Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable. The Company's
customer base includes Fortune 500 companies, the U.S. Federal government, and
other significant, well-known companies operating in North America, Europe and
the Pacific Rim. Credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is minimized
because of the nature and diversification of the Company's customer base.
 
    The Company is currently party to a number of disputes which involve or may
involve litigation. After consultation with counsel, it is the opinion of
Company management that ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these
disputes will not be material to the Company's results of operations or
financial position.

NOTE 8--STOCK INCENTIVE AND STOCK PURCHASE PLANS
 
    STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS
 
    The Company has seven stock incentive plans which authorize the issuance of
stock options, restricted stock and other stock-based incentives to employees
upon terms approved by the Compensation Committee. In addition, on August 1,
1996, in connection with the acquisition of Continuum, the Company assumed
outstanding employee and non-employee director options to purchase an aggregate
of 2,976,000 shares of Continuum common stock at an average exercise price of
$26.77 per share (which is equivalent to 2,351,000 shares of CSC common stock at
an average exercise price of $33.89 per share), and 28,628 shares of restricted
Continuum common stock were converted into 22,616 shares of restricted CSC
common stock.
 
    At March 28, 1997, March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, 2,294,465, 3,426,000
and 1,574,000 shares, respectively, of CSC common stock were available for the
grant of future stock options. These amounts represent the number of CSC shares
then available for option under the Company's seven stock incentive plans, plus
the number of CSC share equivalents then available for assumed stock options,
minus the 61,075 CSC share equivalents that were available for assumed stock
options immediately prior to, but not after, the acquisition of Continuum by
CSC.

    The Company uses the intrinsic value based method of accounting for
stock-based compensation, under which compensation cost is measured as the
excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date over
the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock and amortized over the

period. Compensation cost recognized for stock incentive plans was $1,184,000,
$1,262,000 and $1,639,000 for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
    The following pro forma net income and earnings per share information has
been determined as if the Company had accounted for stock-based compensation
awarded under the stock incentive plans using the fair value based method. Under
the fair value method, the estimated fair value of awards would be charged
against income on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The pro forma
effect on net income for fiscal 1996 and 1997 is not representative of the pro
forma effect on net income in future years because, as required by SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," no consideration has been given to
awards granted prior to fiscal 1996.

    The weighted average fair value of options granted under the stock incentive
plans during fiscal 1997 and 1996 were $91.36 and $65.71, respectively. The fair
value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes Model with the following weighted average assumptions. The risk-
free interest rates for fiscal 1997 and 1996 were 6.55% and 6.16%, respectively.
The expected volatility of the market price of the Company's common stock for
fiscal 1997 and 1996 grants was 26% and 26%, respectively. The expected average
term of the granted options was 5.75 years.
 
    At March 28, 1997, March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, 148,241; 200,174 and
253,880 shares, respectively, of CSC restricted stock were outstanding, net of
shares forfeited by or repurchased from terminated employees, and shares for
which the restrictions have lapsed. Restricted stock awards consist of shares of
common stock of the Company granted at par value. Shares of restricted stock
become outstanding when granted, receive dividends and have voting rights. The
shares are subject to forfeiture and to restrictions which limit the sale or
transfer during the restriction period. An amount equal to the excess of fair
market value of the shares at the date of grant over par value is expensed over
the restriction period. Shares of Continuum restricted stock vest ratably on the
first five anniversaries of the date of issuance, and were granted coincident
with cash bonuses aggregating $211,000 and $77,000 during the fiscal years ended
March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, respectively. Shares of CSC restricted stock
other than Continuum restricted stock generally vest on the fifth, sixth and
seventh anniversaries of the date of issuance. During the fiscal years ended
March 28, 1997, March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, the weighted average market
price per share of CSC restricted stock on the date of issuance was $22.98,
$21.43 and $19.88, respectively.
 
    Certain acquired companies sold shares of their common stock to employees
and directors in exchange for non-interest bearing notes secured by the shares.
The outstanding principal balances of these notes amounted to $4,409,000 at
March 28, 1997 and are classified as a reduction of stockholders' equity.
 
    STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
 
    Prior to the acquisition of Continuum by CSC on August 1, 1996, Continuum
maintained an Employee Stock Purchase Plan which provided for the purchase of up
to 300,000 shares of Continuum

common stock (equivalent to 237,000 shares of CSC stock) by its employees.
Substantially all employees of Continuum were eligible to participate, subject
to certain limitations. The plan provided for semi-annual purchases of stock at
85% of the market value of the stock on the first day or, if lower, the last day
of the six-month offering period. During the fiscal years ended March 28, 1997,
March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995, 58,414; 80,383 and 71,834 shares of Continuum
common stock (equivalent to 46,147; 63,503 and 56,749 shares of CSC common
stock), respectively, were purchased with net proceeds of $2,044,000, $2,172,000
and $1,208,000, respectively.
 
NOTE 9--STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
 
    Pursuant to its stockholder rights plan, the Company has issued one right
for each outstanding share of its common stock. These rights, which are attached
to and trade together with the common stock, are not currently exercisable. On
the tenth business day after any person or entity acquires 20% or more of CSC's
common stock, each right (other than rights held by the 20% stockholder, which
will become void) will become exercisable to purchase one share of CSC common
stock at 10% of the then-current market value. The rights expire December 21,
1998, and may be redeemed by the Board of Directors at $.01 per right at any
time before they become exercisable.

NOTE 11--AGREEMENTS WITH EQUIFAX
 
    During fiscal 1989, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Operating
Agreement") with Equifax Inc. and its subsidiary, Equifax Credit Information
Services, Inc. ("ECIS"), pursuant to which certain of the Company's subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Bureaus") became affiliated credit bureaus of ECIS and
purchase credit reporting services from the ECIS system for resale to their
customers. The Bureaus retain ownership of their credit files stored in the ECIS
system and receive revenues generated from the sale of the credit information
they contain. The Bureaus pay ECIS a fee for storing and maintaining the files
and for each report supplied by the ECIS system.
 
    Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Company has an option to require
ECIS to purchase the collections business (the "Collections Put Option"), and a
separate option to require ECIS to purchase the credit reporting business and,
if not previously sold, the collections business (the "Total Put Option"). Both
options require six months' advance notice and expire on August 1, 2013. The
price of the Collections Put Option is determined by a financial formula. The
price of the Total Put Option is also determined by a financial formula if
notice of exercise is given on or prior to July 31, 1998. If notice of exercise
is given after July 31, 1998, the price of the Total Put Option is equal to
appraised value.
 
    In the opinion of management, the price of the Total Put Option, as
determined using consistent methods of calculation under the financial formulas,
approximated $538 million at March 28, 1997. In its quarterly report for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997, Equifax Inc. stated that this price is currently
estimated at approximately $400 million.
 
    The Operating Agreement has a 10-year term, which will automatically be
renewed indefinitely for successive 10-year periods unless the Company gives
notice of termination at least six months prior to the expiration of any such
term. In the event that on or prior to August 1, 2013 (i) the Company gives such
notice of termination and does not exercise the Total Put Option prior to the
termination of the then-current term or (ii) there is a change in control of the
Company, then ECIS has an option for 60 days after the date of such event to
require the Company to sell to it the credit reporting and collection businesses
at the price for the Total Put Option.
 
    Effective December 1990, the Company, through affiliates, entered into a
joint venture, named CSC Enterprises, to operate the Company's credit services
operations and to carry out other business strategies through acquisition and
investment. The joint venture is structured as a general partnership, with one
of the Company's affiliates as the managing general partner. The Company
assigned its credit reporting and collections businesses and its rights under
the Operating Agreement to this partnership.
 
    As of March 28, 1997, the partners of CSC Enterprises included affiliates of
CSC, affiliates of Equifax Inc., and Merel Corporation. The Company's rights
under the Operating Agreement, including its put options, remain exercisable by
the Company through its affiliates.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
NOTE 12--SUBSEQUENT EVENT: REORGANIZATION OF CSC ENTERPRISES
 
    As a result of recent developments relating to CSC Enterprises, the Company
expects to recognize a net special credit of $2 million, or 2 cents per share,
in the quarter ending June 27, 1997. The net credit will result from a tax
benefit, estimated at $135 million, and an after-tax special charge, estimated
at $133 million, as described below.
 
    During the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 1997, the Equifax affiliates
withdrew from CSC Enterprises. As a result of these withdrawals, CSC Enterprises
took actions with respect to its remaining assets that will cause CSC to
recognize an increase in the tax basis of certain of these assets. As required
by SFAS No. 109, this tax basis increase will result in a deferred tax asset,
estimated at $135 million, and a corresponding reduction of the company's
provision for income taxes during the current fiscal quarter. Through related
income tax deductions, the $135 million should be realized as cash savings over
the next three to five years.
 
    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, the Company, through
CSC Enterprises, will recognize an after-tax special charge, estimated at $133
million, during the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 1997. This special charge,
which is principally non-cash, includes goodwill of $35 million, contract
termination costs of $29 million, deferred contract costs and other assets of
$24 million, telecommunications software and accruals of $21 million,
telecommunications property, equipment and intangible assets of $14 million and
other costs of $10 million.
 
    CSC Enterprises is currently comprised of affiliates of CSC, one of which is
the managing general partner, and Merel Corporation. The Company's rights under
the Operating Agreement, including its put options, remain exercisable by the
Company through its affiliates.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Employee Retirement Plan Committee
Computer Sciences Corporation
El Segundo, California

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Computer Sciences Corporation Matched Asset Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules listed in
Section C of the table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of
the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


Note 1     DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following brief description of the Computer Sciences Corporation Matched
Asset Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. 
Participants should refer to the Plan documents for more complete information.

The Plan was adopted by the action of the Board of Directors of Computer
Sciences Corporation (the "Company") taken on November 3, 1986, and constitutes
an amendment and restatement of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("the Prior
Plan").

The Plan is a continuation of the Prior Plan and is qualified under the Internal
Revenue Code (the "Code"), as amended, Section 401(a) and, effective as of
January 1, 1987, with respect to the portion thereof that qualifies as a
qualified cash or deferred arrangement, to satisfy the requirement of Code
Section 401(k).  It is also subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

The Company reserves the right to discontinue its contributions and terminate
the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.  Upon such termination, the
participants' rights to the Company's contributions vest immediately and the
account balances are fully paid to the participants.

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

Any eligible employee who has satisfied the Plan's age and service requirements,
and is employed by the Company, and who receives a stated compensation in
respect of employment on the payroll of the Company, is eligible to become a
participant, with the exception of a person who is represented by a collective
bargaining unit and whose benefits have been the subject of good faith
bargaining under a contract that does not specify that such person is eligible
to participate in the Plan.  In addition, the Company may determine to exempt
all employees of any division, unit, facility or class from coverage under the
Plan.  Any person who leaves the employ of the Company and, at a later time
becomes re-employed, must reapply to participate in the Plan, provided he or she
otherwise meets the eligibility requirements.

There were approximately 17,267 participating employees at December 31, 1996.

                               MATCHED ASSET PLAN

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


EMPLOYEE AND COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS

Subject to certain limitations described below, an eligible employee who elects
to become a participant may authorize any whole percentage (at least 1% but not
more than 15%) of such employee's monthly compensation (as defined in the Plan)
to be deferred and contributed to the trust fund on his or her behalf, up to a
maximum amount of $9,500 for calendar year 1996.  Any compensation deferral in
excess of $9,500, together with income allocable to that excess, will be
returned to a participant.  Any matching Company contributions attributable to
any excess contribution, and income allocable thereto, will either be returned
to the Company or applied to reduce future matching Company contributions.

In order to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded to plans by Section
401(k) of the Code, contributions on behalf of participants under the Plan must
meet two nondiscrimination tests designed to prevent a disproportionate
compensation deferral election by employees who are highly compensated in
relation to other employees.  The Committee may cause the percentage authorized
by the highly compensated participants to be reduced if the Plan does not meet
both of the nondiscrimination tests.

A participant is not permitted to make voluntary after-tax contributions to the
Plan. 

The Company will contribute and forward to the trust fund, together with a
compensation deferral contribution equal to each participant's qualifying
compensation deferral, an amount equal to 50% of the first 3% of the
participant's compensation deferral (except for a small number of participants,
to whom under the terms of their contract agreement the Company will contribute
an amount equal to 50% of the first 4% of the participant's compensation
deferral).  Matching contributions will be invested in the Company Stock Fund,
which invests primarily in the common stock of Computer Sciences Corporation. 

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
allocations of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings, and is charged with
an allocation of investment management fees.  Allocations are based on
participant earnings or account balances, as defined.  The benefit to which a
participant is entitled is the benefit that can provided from the participant's
vested account.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


VESTING OF PARTICIPANTS' INTERESTS/FORFEITURES

A participant's interest in his or her Compensation Deferral Account, Retirement
Account, After Tax Account, and Rollover Account is at all times fully vested in
the participant or, when appropriate, in the participant's beneficiary or legal
representative.

The vested interest of each participant in the value of his or her Matching
Contributions Account depends on the number of full years of service such
participant has with the Company, as shown below:

NUMBER OF FULL YEARS OF SERVICE     VESTED INTEREST IN MATCHING CONTRIBUTION
- -------------------------------     ----------------------------------------
              1    ..................................   0%
              2    ..................................  25%
              3    ..................................  50%
              4    ..................................  75%
              5    .................................  100% 

(except for a small number of participants, who under the terms of their
contract agreement will vest 100% after 2 years or more)
    
Any nonvested portion of the Matching Contributions Account will be forfeited
upon withdrawal from the Plan.  Forfeitures may be applied to reduce future
matching contributions by the Company.  Such forfeitures during 1996 and 1995
amounted to $1,097,819 and $1,120,945, respectively.

DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS, WITHDRAWALS AND REFUNDS

A participant may become entitled to a distribution of his or her distributable
benefit by reason of retirement, death, total and permanent disability,
voluntary termination of employment, or dismissal.  The rules of payment of a
participant's distributable benefit depend upon age of the participant, the
number of years of service completed by the participant and the type of
severance.  The total amounts distributed during 1996 and 1995 were $44,996,599
and $39,637,011, respectively.

                               MATCHED ASSET PLAN

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


While still an employee, a participant may, upon at least a 30 day written
notice to the Committee, make a withdrawal of his or her compensation deferral
contributions if the Committee finds, after considering the participant's
request, that an adequate financial hardship and resulting need for such amount
has been demonstrated by the participant. These withdrawals during 1996 and 1995
totaled $932,640 and $848,968, respectively.

In order for the Plan to meet the nondiscrimination tests, the Committee has
caused the compensation deferral percentage for certain highly compensated
employees to be reduced, which has also resulted in the return of excess
compensation deferrals.

Note 2     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed in preparation of the financial
statements of the Plan of the Company conform with generally accepted accounting
principles.  The following is a summary of the significant policies.

USE OF ESTIMATES

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

ASSETS OF THE PLAN

The assets of the Plan are held in a trust with five sub-accounts representing
the investment options.  The investment income in the respective sub-accounts is
allocated to the participants.  Contributions to, and payments from, the Plan
are specifically identified to the applicable sub-accounts within the trust.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

Security transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis.  Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is accounted for on the
accrual basis.

In general, participants in the Stock Fund receive distributions in certificates
for shares of the common stock of the Company.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


VALUATION OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investments in common stocks and mutual funds are stated at fair value based
upon closing sales prices reported on recognized securities exchanges on the
last business day of the plan year or, for the listed securities having no sales
reported and for unlisted securities, upon last reported bid prices on that
date.  Investments in short-term investments are stated at cost which
approximates fair value.

VALUATION OF GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CONTRACTS

The Plan holds guaranteed investment contracts, which are considered to be fully
benefit responsive as access to the funds of these contracts is not restricted. 
The guaranteed investment contracts are valued at contract value in accordance
with SOP 94-4.  Contract value represents contributions made by participants,
plus interest at the contract rates, less withdrawals or transfers by
participants.

Based on the treasury yield curve for similar type of investments, the fair
value of the guaranteed investment contracts at December 31, 1996 and 1995 was
approximately $61,675,000 and $83,860,000, respectively.  The average yield and
crediting interest rates were approximately 7.18% and 7.60% for 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  The crediting interest rate is based on an agreed-upon formula
with the issuer, but cannot be less than zero. 

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Note 3     INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter
dated July 18, 1996, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance
with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

The Committee believes that the Plan is designed and operated to qualify under
Section 401(a) of the Code and, with respect to its qualified cash or deferred
arrangement, under Section 401(k) of the Code.  When the requirements of Section
401(k) of the Code are satisfied, the following tax consequences result:

Note 5     INVESTMENT FUNDS

Participant contributions - Subject to rules the Committee may from time to 
time adopt, each participant has the right to designate one or more of the 
following investment funds established by the Committee for the investment of 
his or her compensation deferral contributions, in increments of 10%.

THE FIXED INCOME FUND

The fund is invested in contracts with insurance companies and other 
financial institutions.  These institutions agree to repay principal with 
interest at a fixed rate of return for the life of each contract.  This is a 
commitment by the insurance company or the financial institution to make 
agreed upon payments and that agreement is not secured, insured or guaranteed 
by the Company or any other third party. Approximately half of the fund is 
invested in contracts with insurance companies.

The remainder of the fund (including the proceeds from maturing insurance 
contracts, newly invested money and interest from insurance contracts) is in 
the Master Trust which was established for the investment of assets of the 
Plan and several other Company sponsored benefit plans. The Master Trust is 
an actively managed, short-term (1-3 years) U.S. Bond Fund managed by Payden 
& Rygel.  Each participating plan has an undivided interest in the Master 
Trust.  The assets of the Master Trust are held by the Trustee.  At December 
31, 1996 and 1995, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Master Trust 
was approximately 90% and 93%, respectively.  Investment income and 
administrative expenses relating to the Master Trust are allocated to 
individual plans based upon average monthly balances invested by each plan.

The following table represents the fair value of investments for the Master 
Trust.

in U.S. stocks, bonds and cash.  The stock portfolio consists of large, 
intermediate and small companies. The bond portion of the portfolio is 
primarily invested in U.S. Treasury, government agency and corporate issues.  
This fund's investment objective is to maximize total return, consisting of 
capital appreciation and current income.

THE ACTIVE EQUITY FUND

The fund is invested with Brinson Partners Inc.  The Brinson Partners Inc. 
U.S. Equity Fund is invested in common stocks traded in the U.S.  The fund's 
objective is to maximize total return which consists of capital appreciation 
and current income.  

THE STOCK INDEX FUND

The fund is managed by Mellon Capital Management.  The objective of the fund 
is to exceed the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index.  The 
Stock Index Fund either invests in a stock portfolio designed to track the 
performance of the S&P Stock Index and/or creates a synthetic S&P 500 
portfolio using (unlevered) financial futures and options.  Assets used as 
collateral for futures/options positions are comprised of various market or 
debt instruments.

THE COMPANY STOCK FUND

Amounts allocated to this investment alternative will be used to purchase 
shares of CSC common stock which will be held for the benefit of the 
participant.  The performance of this investment will depend upon the 
performance of CSC's stock. The Trustee may purchase Company stock on 
national securities exchanges or elsewhere.

After an initial election has been made, a participant may designate a 
different Fund into which future compensation deferral contributions shall be 
invested as of the first day of any payroll period that coincides with or 
immediately follows the first day of a calendar quarter.  In addition, a 
participant may elect to redesignate any amounts in his or her accounts as of 
the last business day of any calendar quarter to be invested in a different 
Fund.  These elections may be made by giving such advance notice as may be 
required by the Plan administrator.

                  FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


Company contributions - In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the 
Trustee must promptly invest matching Company contributions paid into the 
trust fund in the Company Stock Fund.  An exception is in the case of a 
participant who has (i) attained at least age 59 1/2, or (ii) has been 
credited with at least five years of service and has attained at least age 55 
and has made an election to designate different Funds.

NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS

The approximate number of participants having account balances in each of the 
six separate funds at December 31, 1996 was as follows:

    Investment Fund                                    Number of Participants
    ---------------                                    ----------------------
         
    The Fixed Income Fund ..................................   11,582
    The Balanced Fund ......................................   11,145
    The Active Equity Fund .................................   14,335
    The Stock Index Fund ...................................   9,113
    The Company Stock Fund .................................   20,067
    The Loan Fund ..........................................   2,530

The sum of the number of participants shown above is greater than the total 
number of participants in the Plan because many are participating in more 
than one fund.

Note 6     PARTICIPANT LOANS

The Plan allows participants to borrow from their vested account balances 
from a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of $50,000 or 50% of their vested 
account balances, subject to certain limitations.  The loans bear interest at 
the prime rate quoted in the Wall Street Journal plus 1%, which is set on a 
quarterly basis.  Loan terms range from 1-5 years or up to 15 years for 
purchase of primary residence.  Loans are recorded at cost, which approximate 
fair value, on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.

The loans (which are accounted for in the Loan Fund) are deducted from the 
participants' vested account balances based on their investment elections 
with respect to the funds described in Note 5.  Loan repayments are credited 
to the participants' accounts according to their current investment election.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Employee Retirement Plan Committee
Computer Sciences Corporation
El Segundo, California

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for 
benefits of the Computer Sciences Corporation Outsourcing, Inc. Hourly 
Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related 
statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then 
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's 
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial 
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements referred to above present fairly, 
in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan 
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for 
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules listed in 
Section C of the table of contents are presented for the purpose of 
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial 
statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of 
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee 
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  These supplemental schedules are the 
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Such schedules have been subjected 
to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial 
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in 
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                      FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


Note 1     DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following brief description of the Computer Sciences Corporation
Outsourcing Inc. Hourly Savings Plan (the "Plan"), formerly the TMD Hourly
Savings Plan, of Computer Sciences Corporation (the "Company") is provided for
general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan
document for more complete information.

The Plan became effective May 2, 1992, as a result of the Company acquiring
the Data Systems Division of General Dynamics Corporation.  The Plan is
administered by a committee consisting of four officers who are appointed by
the Board of Directors of the Company and serve without compensation, being
reimbursed by the Company for all expenditures incurred in the discharge of
their duties as members of the committee.  The committee has the power to
interpret, construe and administer the Plan and to decide any dispute which
may arise under the Plan.  The Trustee, The Bank of New York, administers the
Plan pursuant to a Trust Agreement entered into with the Company. Certain
administrative expenses (including Trustee fees) incurred for services
rendered to the Plan are paid by the Company.

The Plan is a voluntary, contributory, defined contribution plan and is
intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 401(a) and 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").  It is also subject to the provisions of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").  

The Company reserves the right to discontinue contributions and to terminate
the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.  Upon such termination, the
participants' rights to the Company's contributions vest immediately and the
account balances are fully paid to the participants.


ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

Employees are eligible to participate on specified enrollment dates if they
satisfy the Plan's service requirements, are an hourly paid employee of
Computer Sciences Corporation Outsourcing Inc. and are a member of a
collective bargaining unit for which participation in this Plan has been
provided by negotiated agreement.  A rehired eligible employee may receive
service credit for his or her previous employment and is eligible to rejoin
the Plan on the next enrollment date.

There were approximately 120 participating employees at December 31, 1996.

                             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


EMPLOYEE AND COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS

A participant may authorize before-tax and after-tax contributions to the Plan
subject to a maximum level of contributions (a certain percentage of base
earnings), as specified by the bargaining agreement covering the employee. 
Depending on the investment election option the participant elects, the
Company will contribute, and forward to the Trust fund  $0.50 for each $1.00
of the employee matched contribution together with the participant's before-
tax and after-tax contribution.

Participants in certain bargaining units who direct 100 percent of their
contributions to the Plan's stock fund will receive a monthly matching
contribution of $1.00 for each $1.00 of employee matched contributions. 
Participants under certain bargaining units may contribute additional
unmatched contributions at various percentages of base earnings to a maximum
specified by the union agreement covering the employee but only if a
participant contributes the maximum matched percentage for which he or she is
eligible.  The employees' base earnings deferred and contributed to the Trust
fund cannot exceed $9,500 for calendar year 1996, the maximum allowable under
the Code.  Annual after-tax contributions to the Plan (including employee and
Company matching contributions) are limited to $30,000 for each participant.
Any compensation deferral in excess of $9,500 and any after-tax contributions
with matching Company contributions in excess of $30,000, together with income
allocable to those excess contributions will be returned to a participant. 
Any matching Company contributions attributable to any excess contribution,
and income allocable thereto, will either be returned to the Company or
applied to reduce future matching Company contributions.

Participants may change their investment elections as of any enrollment date
if at least a 30 day prior notice is given.  However, participants under
certain circumstances may be eligible to change their investment elections
within a 30 day window period.  Participants may transfer their existing
account balances in 25 percent increments.  Transfer elections are effective
on the first quarterly enrollment date following receipt of a 30 day prior
notice from the participant.

Company contributions - In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the
Trustee must promptly invest matching Company contributions paid into the
Trust Fund in the same fund as the participant contributions.

The Plan does not permit employees to rollover a qualified distribution from
another Plan.

                       FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
allocations of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings, and is charged
with an allocation of investment management fees.  Allocations are based on
participant earnings or account balances, as defined.  The benefit to which a
participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
participant's vested account.

VESTING OF PARTICIPANTS' INTERESTS/FORFEITURES

Participants are 100 percent vested at all times in their before-tax and
after-tax contribution accounts.  Company matching contributions and
investment earnings thereon vest according to a five-year cliff vesting
schedule as shown in the following table:

    Number of Full Years of Service    Vested Interest in Matching Contribution
    -------------------------------    ----------------------------------------
               1  ...................................   0%
               2  ...................................   0%
               3  .................... ..............   0%
               4 ....................................   0%
               5 or more ............................ 100%
               
The vesting schedule is overridden under extraordinary circumstances as
specified in the Plan document, in which the participant (or beneficiary(ies))
immediately becomes fully vested in all employer contributions and earnings,
regardless of his or her number of years of service.

Any nonvested balances will be immediately forfeited from the participant's
account at termination.

DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS, WITHDRAWALS AND REFUNDS

The entire balance in all accounts is distributed to participants who retire,
die, become disabled, are laid-off for four consecutive weeks, are discharged
without fault, or who involuntarily enter military service. Participants who
terminate for other reasons receive their vested balances.  Nonvested balances
are forfeited immediately.  The amounts distributed during 1996 and 1995
totaled $280,454 and $1,235,284, respectively.

                       FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


While still an employee, a participant may make an in-service withdrawal of
all or a portion of his or her after-tax contributions, subject to frequency
of withdrawal penalties, as well as vested Company matching contributions,
plus the earnings on those amounts.  Upon at least a 30 day written notice to
the Committee, a participant may make a hardship withdrawal of his or her
before-tax and after-tax contributions, as well as vested Company matching
contributions if the Committee finds, after considering the participant's
request, that an adequate financial hardship and resulting need for such
amount has been demonstrated by the participant.  Both types of withdrawals
are subject to certain restrictions as described in the Plan document.  No
hardship withdrawals were made in 1996 and 1995.  

Note 2     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed in preparation of the financial
statements of the Plan of the Company conform with generally accepted
accounting principles.  The following is a summary of the significant
policies.

USE OF ESTIMATES

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

ASSETS OF THE PLAN

The assets of the Plan are held in a trust with four sub-accounts.  The
investment income in the respective sub-accounts is allocated to the
participants.  Contributions to, and payments from, the Plan are specifically
identified to the applicable sub-accounts within the trust.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.  Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is accounted for
on the accrual basis.

In general, participants in the Stock Fund receive distributions in
certificates for shares of the common stock of the Company.

                             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


VALUATION OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investments in common stocks and mutual funds are stated at fair value based
upon closing sales prices reported on recognized securities exchanges on the
last business day of the plan year or, for the listed securities having no
sales reported and for unlisted securities, upon last reported bid prices on
that date.  Investments in short-term securities are stated at cost which
approximates fair value.

VALUATION OF GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CONTRACTS

The Plan holds guaranteed investment contracts, which are considered to be
fully benefit responsive as access to the funds of these contracts is not
restricted.  The guaranteed investment contracts are valued at contract value
in accordance with SOP 94-4.  Contract value represents contributions made by
participants, plus interest at the contract rates, less withdrawals or
transfers by participants.

Based on treasury yield curves for similar type investments, the fair value of
guaranteed investment contracts at December 31, 1996 and 1995, was
approximately $2,480,000 and $2,360,000, respectively.  The average yield and
crediting interest rates were approximately at 7.62% and 7.60% for 1996 and
1995, respectively. The crediting interest rate is based on an agreed-upon
formula with the issuer, but cannot be less than zero.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Note 3     INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated June 1, 1996, that the Plan and related trust are designed in
accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).  

The Committee believes that the Plan is designed and operated to qualify under
Section 401(a) of the Code and, with respect to its qualified cash or deferred
arrangement, under Section 401(k) of the Code.  Since the requirements of
Section 401(k) of the Code are satisfied, the following tax consequences
result:

                       FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


(i)   A participant is not subject to federal income tax on Company
contributions to the Plan or on income or realized gains in Plan Accounts
attributable to the participant until a distribution from the Plan is made to
him or her.

(ii) The participant is able to exclude from his or her income for federal
income tax purposes, the amount of his or her compensation deferral
contributions, subject to a maximum exclusion of $9,500 and $9,240 for 1996
and 1995 taxable years of the participant, respectively.

(iii) On distribution of a participant's vested interest in the Plan, the
participant generally is subject to federal income taxation, except that: (1)
tax on "net unrealized appreciation" on any Company stock distributed as a
part of a "lump sum distribution" generally would be deferred until the
participant disposes of such stock, and (2) tax may be deferred to the extent
the participant is eligible for and complies with certain rules permitting the
"rollover" of a qualifying distribution to another retirement plan, or
individual retirement account.

Note 5     INVESTMENT FUNDS

Participant contributions - Subject to rules the bargaining units have
adopted, each participant has the right to designate one or more of the
following investment funds established by the Committee for the investment of
his or her compensation deferral contributions and after-tax contributions in
percentages determined by the bargaining units.

THE FIXED INCOME FUND

The fund is invested in contracts with insurance companies and other financial
institutions.  These institutions agree to repay principal with interest at a
fixed rate of return for the life of each contract.  This is a commitment by
the insurance company or the financial institution to make agreed upon
payments and that agreement is not secured, insured or guaranteed by the
Company or any other third party.

The remainder of the fund (including the proceeds from maturing insurance 
contracts, newly invested money and interest from insurance contracts) is in 
the Master Trust which was established for the investment of assets of the 
Plan and several other Company sponsored benefit plans. The Master Trust is 
an actively managed, short-term (1-3 years) U.S. Bond Fund managed by Payden 
& Rygel.  Each participating plan has an undivided interest in the Master 
Trust. The assets of the Master Trust are held by the Trustee.  At December 
31, 1996 and 1995, the Plan's interest in the net assets of the Master Trust 
was approximately 0.12% and 0.21%, respectively.  Investment income and 
administrative expenses relating to the Master Trust are allocated to 
individual plans based upon average monthly balances invested by each plan.

The following table represents the fair value of investments for the Master 
Trust.

                   FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


This fund is invested in bonds issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or
U.S. Government agencies.  The fund is managed by Mellon Capital with the
objective of tracking to the Intermediate Government Bond Index.

THE ACTIVE EQUITY FUND

The fund is invested with Brinson Partners Inc.  The Brinson Partners Inc.
U.S. Equity Portfolio is invested in common stocks traded in the U.S.  The
fund's objective is to maximize total return which consists of capital
appreciation and current income.  

THE COMPANY STOCK FUND

Amounts allocated to this investment alternative will be used to purchase
shares of Computer Sciences Corporation common stock that are held for the
benefit of the participant.  The performance of this investment depends upon
the performance of Computer Sciences Corporation's stock.  The Trustee may
purchase Company stock on national securities exchanges or elsewhere.

NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS

The approximate number of participants having account balances in each of the
four separate funds at December 31, 1996 were as follows:

                Investment Fund                     Number of Participants
                ---------------                     ----------------------

     The Fixed Income Fund .............................      124
     The Government Bond Fund ..........................       67
     The Active Equity Fund ............................       84
     The Company Stock Fund ............................       54

The sum of the number of participants shown above is greater than the total
number of participants in the Plan because many are participating in more than
one fund.

                    CSC OUTSOURCING, INC. CUTW HOURLY SAVINGS PLAN

                          NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE FIVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 
                       AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


 Note 1     DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following brief description of the CSC Outsourcing Inc. CUTW Hourly 
Savings Plan (the "Plan") of Computer Sciences Corporation (the "Company") is 
provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to 
the Plan document for more complete information.

The Plan became effective August 5, 1995, as a result of the Company 
acquiring certain employees of the Southern New England Telephone Company.  
The Plan is administered by a committee consisting of four officers (the 
"Committee) who are appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company and 
serve without compensation, being reimbursed by the Company for all 
expenditures incurred in the discharge of their duties as members of the 
Committee.  The committee has the power to interpret, construe and administer 
the Plan and to decide any dispute which may arise under the Plan.  The 
Trustee, The Bank of New York, administers the Trust pursuant to a Trust 
Agreement entered into with the Company. All administrative expenses incurred 
for services rendered to the Plan shall be paid from the Trust to the extent 
not paid by the Company.

The Plan is a voluntary, contributory, defined contribution plan and is 
intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 401(a) and 401(k) of the 
Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").

The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at anytime.  Upon such 
termination, the participants' rights to the Company's contributions vest 
immediately and the account balances are fully paid to the participants.

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

Employees are eligible to participate on specified enrollment dates if they 
satisfy the Plan's eligibility requirements, are hourly paid employees of CSC 
Outsourcing Inc. and are a member of a collective bargaining unit for which 
participation in this Plan has been provided by negotiated agreement.  A 
rehired eligible employee is eligible to rejoin the Plan on the next 
enrollment date.

There were approximately 40 participating employees at December 31, 1996.

                          NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE FIVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 
                       AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


EMPLOYEE AND COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS

A participant may authorize before-tax and after-tax contributions to the 
Plan subject to a maximum level of contributions (a certain percentage of 
base earnings), as specified by the bargaining agreement covering the 
employee.  The Company will contribute, and forward to the Trust fund 66 2/3% 
 of the first 1% to 6% for the employee matched contribution together with 
the participant's before-tax and after-tax contribution.

The employees' base earnings deferred and contributed to the Trust fund 
cannot exceed $9,500 and $9,240 for calendar years 1996 and 1995, 
respectively, the maximum allowable under the Code.  Annual after-tax 
contributions to the Plan (including employee and Company matching 
contributions) are limited to $30,000 for each participant. Any compensation 
deferral in excess of $9,500 and any after-tax contributions with matching 
Company contributions in excess of $30,000, together with income allocable to 
those excess contributions will be returned to a participant.  Any matching 
Company contributions attributable to any excess contribution, and income 
allocable thereto, will either be returned to the Company or applied to 
reduce future matching Company contributions.

VESTING OF PARTICIPANTS' INTERESTS/FORFEITURES

Participants are 100 percent vested at all times in their before-tax, 
after-tax contribution and  Company matching accounts.

DISTRIBUTABLE AMOUNTS, WITHDRAWALS AND REFUNDS

The entire balance in all accounts for participants who retire, die, become 
disabled, or are discharged is distributed according to the provisions of the 
Plan. There are no forfeitures.  No amounts were distributed during 1996.

                     FOR THE FIVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 
                       AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


While still an employee, a participant may make an in-service withdrawal of 
all or a part of the vested portion of his or her accounts attributable to 
their contributions, as well as vested Company matching contributions, plus 
the earnings on those amounts subject to the provisions of the Plan.  Upon 
written notice to the Committee, a participant may make a hardship withdrawal 
of his or her before-tax and after-tax contributions, as well as Company 
matching contributions if the Committee finds, after considering the 
participant's request, that an adequate financial hardship and resulting need 
for such amount has been demonstrated by the participant.  A participant may 
request a hardship withdrawal only if he or she first takes a loan of any 
available monies in the Plan.  Both types of withdrawals are subject to 
certain restrictions as described in the Plan document.  There were no 
withdrawals in 1996.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and, with 
respect to its qualified cash or deferred arrangement, under Section 401(k) 
of the Code.  Since the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code are 
satisfied, the following tax consequences result:

 (i)   A participant would not be subject to federal income tax on Company 
contributions to the Plan or on income or realized gains in Plan Accounts 
attributable to the participant until a distribution from the Plan is made to 
him or her.

(ii) The participant would be able to exclude from his or her income for 
federal income tax purposes, the amount of his or her compensation deferral 
contributions, subject to a maximum exclusion of $9,500 and 9,240 for 1996 
and 1995, respectively.

(iii) On distribution of a participant's vested interest in the Plan, the 
participant generally would be subject to federal income taxation, except 
that: (1) tax on "net unrealized appreciation" on any Company stock 
distributed as a part of a "lump sum distribution" generally would be 
deferred until the participant disposes of such stock, and (2) tax may be 
deferred to the extent the participant is eligible for and complies with 
certain rules permitting the "rollover" of a qualifying distribution to 
another retirement plan, or individual retirement account.

Note 2     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed in preparation of the 
financial statements of the Plan of the Company conform with generally 
accepted accounting principles.  The following is a summary of the 
significant policies.

                            COMPUTER SCIENCES CORPORATION

                          NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     FOR THE FIVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 
                       AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

ASSETS OF THE PLAN

The assets of the Plan are held in a trust with five sub-accounts, which 
represents the investment options.  The investment income in the respective 
sub-accounts is allocated to the participants.  Contributions to, and 
payments from, the Plan are specifically identified to the applicable 
sub-accounts within the trust.

USE OF ESTIMATES

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

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.  Dividend 
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is accounted for 
on the accrual basis.

Participants in the Stock Fund may elect to receive distributions in 
certificates for shares of the common stock of the Company.

VALUATION OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investments in common stocks and mutual funds are stated at fair value based 
upon closing sales prices reported on recognized securities exchanges on the 
last business day of the month or, for the listed securities having no sales 
reported and for unlisted securities, upon last reported bid prices on that 
date.  Investments in certificates of deposit, money market funds and 
corporate debt instruments (commercial paper) are stated at cost which 
approximates fair value.

PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

Benefits are recorded when paid.

                   AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

Note 3     INCOME TAX STATUS

The Company will apply for a determination letter within the applicable time
period, from the Internal Revenue Service substantiating that the Plan, as
amended, qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Code and, with respect to its
qualified cash or deferred arrangement, under Section 401(k) of the Code.  

Note 4     INVESTMENT FUNDS

Participant contributions - Subject to rules the bargaining units have adopted,
each participant has the right to designate one or more of the following
investment funds established by the Committee for the investment of his or her
compensation deferral contributions and after-tax contributions in percentages
determined by the bargaining unit.

THE FIXED INCOME FUND

The fund is invested in the Master Trust which was established for the
investment of assets of the Plan and several other Company sponsored benefit
plans. The Master Trust is an actively managed, short-term (1-3 years) U.S. Bond
Fund managed by Payden & Rygel.  Each participating plan has an undivided
interest in the Master Trust.  The assets of the Master Trust are held by the
Trustee.  At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Plan's interest in the net assets
of the Master Trust was approximately .07% and .08%, respectively.  Investment
income and administrative expenses relating to the Master Trust are allocated to
individual plans based upon average monthly balances invested by each plan.

The following table represents the fair value of investments for the Master
Trust.

THE STOCK INDEX FUND

The fund is invested with the Mellon Capital Management Stock Index Fund.  
The fund is designed to closely follow or track the movement of the Standard 
& Poor's 500 Composite Price Index (S&P 500), with enhancement to the index.  
This fund provides an opportunity to invest in a broadly diversified 
portfolio of U.S. stocks using a passive or "indexed" approach.

THE COMPANY STOCK FUND

Amounts allocated to this investment alternative will be used to purchase 
shares of CSC common stock which will be held for the benefit of the 
participant.  The performance of this investment will depend upon the 
performance of CSC's stock. The Trustee may purchase Company stock on 
national securities exchanges or elsewhere.

In accordance with rules established by the Committee, participants may 
change their investment elections as of the first day of the first payroll 
period in the month, if filed within the prescribed time, by delivering an 
election form to the Company.  Participants may transfer their existing 
account balances in 1 percent increments.  Transfer elections are effective 
as of the first day of the month, or the second month if the participants 
election form is not filed within the time prescribed by the Committee, 
following the month in which the participant files his election form with the 
Company.

Company contributions - In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the 
Trustee must promptly invest matching Company contributions paid into the 
Trust Fund in the same fund as the participant contributions.

The approximate number of participants having account balances in each of the
five separate funds at December 31, 1996 was as follows:

                   AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


The sum of the number of participants shown in the preceding page is greater
than the total number of participants in the Plan because many are participating
in more than one fund.

Note 5     PARTICIPANT LOANS

The Plan has a loan provision in place which is available to participants
covered by the bargaining unit.  As of December 31, 1996, $24,764 of loans were
outstanding.

Note 6     BENEFITS PAYABLE

The Plan complies with the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide, Audits of Employee
Benefit Plans.  The guide recommends that benefits payable to persons who have
withdrawn from participation in a defined contribution plan be disclosed in the
footnotes to the financial statements rather than be recorded as a liability of
the Plan.  As of December 31, 1996, net assets available for benefits included
no benefits due to participants who have withdrawn from participation in the
Plan.

Note 7     MERGING OF PLANS

The Plan received $453,011 on November 15, 1995 and $18,413 on December 29, 1995
from Boston Safe Deposit & Trust Co. These amounts represent the balances of 23
participants as of November 14, 1995.
