1.  In the opinion of the Registrant, the consolidated financial 
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring 
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of

three month periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. The results of 
operations for the three month periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the 
full year. The Balance Sheet does not include all disclosure 
requirements under GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the 
September 30, 1995 audited financial statements and notes thereto.


2.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Triad 
Systems Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Triad 
Systems Financial Corporation ("Triad Financial"), after elimination of 
intercompany accounts and transactions. Financial information relating 
to the Company's combined leasing operations is presented in Note 6.


3.  Trade accounts receivable at December 31,1995 and September 30,1995 
include allowances for doubtful accounts of $1,338,000 and $1,420,000, 
respectively.


4.  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out 
method) or market and include amounts which ultimately may be 
capitalized as equipment or service parts.

			 Triad Systems Corporation
		MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
	      FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
	First Quarter F/Y 1996 compared to First Quarter F/Y 1995


Results of Operations 

Summary

Revenues of $40.9 million for the period were down 3% from the $42.0 
million of one year ago, the result of a 14% drop in Automotive 
Aftermarket revenues to $23.8 million from $27.8 million. Hardlines and 
Lumber revenues were a first-quarter record $15.7 million, a 24% 
improvement over one year ago. Operating income was $4.0 million, or 10% 
of revenues, compared to $4.3 million, or 10% of revenues, in 1995. 
Earnings per share were 9 cents compared to 8 cents in the same period 
of 1995, which included a $153,000 charge related to the early 
retirement of debt.

Automotive Aftermarket Revenues

The Automotive Aftermarket consists of warehouse distributors, parts 
stores and service dealers. Revenues are primarily derived from the sale 
and financing of systems and from information and support services 
related to those systems.

Systems sales decreased to $6.1 million from $10.2 million in the first 
quarter of 1995, reflecting a widespread and extended softness in the 
market that caused customers and potential customers to defer major 
purchases. A controlled rollout of the second phase of the Triad Prism 
jobber system also contributed to the revenue decline as the company 
addressed software performance issues.

Customer support revenues of $8.9 million were $.5 million below a year 
ago, reflecting lower priced service offerings related to more reliable 
technology, and a reduced customer base.

Information Services revenues increased 9% to $7.2 million, including a 
9% improvement in database sales to $7.0 million as the number of 
customers applying Triad's parts and labor estimating system continued 
to steadily increase.

Triad Systems Financial Corporation ("Triad Financial," a wholly-owned 
subsidiary) revenues related to the Automotive Aftermarket were 
consistent with a year ago at $1.7 million. An increase of 31% to $1.2 
million in discounted lease gains was partially offset by a decline in 
lease income from a reduced portfolio.

Hardlines & Lumber Market Revenue

First quarter revenues from the sale and financing of systems, support 
and information to hardware stores and home centers, lumber and building 
supply outlets and paint and decorating retailers increased to $15.7 
million from $12.6 million one year ago.

Systems sales rose $1.8 million or 29% to $8.2 million, reflecting a 
growing awareness of the competitive benefits of automation, along with 
a more stable and productive sales force. A significant reduction in 
sales specialist turnover resulted in a 41% productivity improvement 
over the first quarter of 1995. The company's efforts to become more 
closely affiliated with major co-ops and wholesale distributors has also 
positively impacted revenues.

Customer support revenues continued to increase with the customer base 
growth, improving $.7 million or 12% to $6.1 million.

The Company's new point of sale (POS) businesses generated the majority 
of the $.3 million increase in Information Services revenues to $.5 
million, while catalog sales also showed improvement.

Triad Financial revenues related to the Hardlines and Lumber Market rose 
46% to $1.0 million and gains from the discounting of leases increased 
94% to $.7 million. Increased systems sales have resulted in the lease 
portfolio remaining consistent with a year ago despite increased 
discounting, and lease income from the portfolio remained at $.2 
million.

Cost of Systems and Services

Both markets experienced an increase in the costs of systems and 
services for the period. The combined costs of systems and services for 
both markets, as a percentage of revenue, increased 2% to 53% when 
compared to the first quarter of last year. This increase was attributed 
to a heavy volume of hardware related add-ons, which typically has lower 
margins, in the product mix when compared to the same period last year. 

Expenses

Marketing expense remained consistent with last year at $11.2 million. A 
planned decrease in the Company's sales force was offset by increased 
staffing in the third-party lease business and by increased lease 
losses.

Product development expenses, after capitalization of software 
development, decreased 9% to $1.9 million compared to a year ago. New 
product development in the POS and Hardlines and Lumber market resulted 
in higher capitalization than a year ago.

General, administrative and other operating expenses were $2.3 million 
for the period, a reduction of $.8 million from a year ago and flat with 
last quarter. This is primarily attributed to a reduction in 
compensation expenses and operating costs when compared to last year. 
Additionally, litigation expense was $142,000 for the period, less than 
half when compared to a year ago. The Company also benefited from a 
reduction in its accruals needed for future tax liabilities.

Interest and other expense decreased by $.1 million to $1.6 million for 
the period. This cost reduction is primarily attributed to the Company's 
reduction of debt in 1995. In 1995, the Company also refinanced $11.8 
million in floating rate notes at a lower interest cost.

In October of 1994, $2.9 million of senior fixed rate notes were retired 
early. This generated an extraordinary charge of $153,000 ($.01 per 
share) that included a premium of $198,000, unamortized debt costs of 
$49,000, less taxes of $94,000. 

Future Operating Results

The Company's future operating results will depend upon conditions in 
its markets that may affect demand for its products, and upon the 
Company's ability to introduce products and enhancements on a timely 
basis. Results will also be affected by seasonal changes in product 
demand, market acceptance of new products and enhancements, the size and 
experience of the sales force and the mix of products sold. All could 
cause operating results to fluctuate, especially on a quarterly basis.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management believes available cash resources, primarily generated from 
operations, lease discounting and credit lines, will provide adequate 
funds to finance foreseeable operating needs. The Company has available 
$15.3 million in a bank line of credit and there were no borrowings at 
December 31, 1995. 


Triad Financial financed the majority of Triad's domestic business 
systems sales during the period, as well as $3.5 million in non-Triad 
equipment through client lease programs. Triad Financial received $18.6 
million of proceeds from discounting leases during the period.

Limited and full-recourse discounting agreements are maintained with 
banks and lending institutions. Discounting agreements contain certain 
restrictive covenants that allow Triad Financial to discount only 
while in compliance with such covenants. In the event of non-compliance, 
the banks and lending institutions could assume administrative control 
of the Company's lease portfolio and prohibit further discounting under 
the available credit facilities. The Company is in compliance with the 
restrictive covenants and management believes that it will maintain 
compliance with such covenants in the foreseeable future. Under the 
discounting agreements, Triad Financial is contingently liable for 
losses in the event of lessee nonpayment. The agreements provide for 
limited recourse of up to 15% or full recourse at 100% of discounting 
proceeds, depending on the credit risk associated with specific leases. 
At December 31, 1995, the portfolio available for discounting was $15.3 
million and commitments for $38.6 million in discounting lines were 
available.

Capital equipment expenditures, excluding capitalized leases, were $.6 
million during the period.

During fiscal 1994, the Company established a Stock Ownership By 
Management policy to further align the executive officers' interests 
with those of the Corporation's stockholders. The stock ownership 
equivalent is based upon 1993 compensation, ranging from 100% of base 
compensation to 200% of total compensation, depending upon the position 
held within the Company. Each officer must meet their respective stock 
ownership level within a three to five year period. Eight of the current 
executive officers are required to meet the stock ownership target by 
October 1, 1996. As of December 31, 1995, five have already achieved the 
target.

During October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement No. 123(SFAS No. 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based 
Compensation." This standard, which establishes a fair value-based 
method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans also permits an 
election to continue, following the requirements of APB Opinion No. 25, 
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" with disclosures of pro forma 
net income and earnings per share under the new method. The Company is 
reviewing the alternatives under SFAS No. 123 but does not expect there 
will be any effect on the financial condition and results of operations 
of the Company. Disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 will be 
effective for the Company's fiscal year 1997.
