1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND OTHER ACCOUNTING INFORMATION

          The accompanying unaudited balance sheet at September 30, 1998, and
          the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the
          interim periods ending September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997
          should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
          statements and notes set forth in the most recent Annual Report on
          Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the
          opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial
          statements contain all material adjustments, consisting principally of
          normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the
          results of operations.

          Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the
          weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
          period. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by
          the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted to
          reflect the assumed exercise of all outstanding stock options which
          are dilutive and adjusted for the assumed conversion of convertible
          debt. The Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" effective
          December 31, 1997. As a result, the Company's reported net income per
          share for all periods prior to December 31, 1997, was restated.

          Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current 
          year presentation.

6.       COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

In June 1997, SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" was issued. The
Company has adopted this standard which requires disclosure of comprehensive
income and its components in the financial statements. For the Company,
comprehensive income includes net income and foreign currency translation
adjustments. The components of comprehensive income for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

7.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 26, 1998, the Company announced plans to restructure into two primary
businesses--transaction processing/document management and desktop/network
services.  The restructuring will allow the Company to reduce cost by
streamlining operations and focusing future investments in those areas that
offer the greatest potential to accelerate growth and profitability.  The
restructuring will result in non-recurring charges estimated to be in the range
of $30.0 to $35.0 million in the fourth quarter of 1998.  Non-recurring charges
may include costs related to consolidation of operational functions and
facilities, rationalization of product lines and other restructuring costs.

Additionally, the Company's Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of
up to 1.0 million additional shares of the Company's common stock over the next
twelve months.  Repurchases will be made from time to time in the open market
from operating cash flow.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

Total revenue of $157.5 million for the third quarter of 1998 increased $7.0
million or 4.6% compared to the third quarter of 1997.  Revenue from sales of
equipment and software increased $3.5 million primarily due to increased sales
of large systems for international customers and increased Plexus software
sales, partially offset by the decreased sales of manufactured equipment to OEM
customers.  Revenue from maintenance and other services increased $3.5 million
from the prior period due to continued strong growth in network services,
partially offset by the expiration of some maintenance contracts on older
document processing systems.

Total gross profit of $41.7 million for the third quarter of 1998 declined $4.6
million from the third quarter of 1997.  Gross profit for equipment and software
of $25.3 million was $1.7 million lower than in the third quarter of 1997.
Gross margin for equipment and software declined due to sales of less profitable
equipment and systems upgrades rather than more profitable new integration
systems.  Gross profit for maintenance and other services of $16.4 million
declined $2.9 million from the third quarter of 1997.  Although revenue from
maintenance and other services increased from the prior period, the gross margin
percentage declined due to a change in the mix of the types of services being
provided and the effect of start-up costs on certain new long-term service
contracts.

Operating expenses in the third quarter of 1998 totaled $29.0 million, an
increase of $1.8 million from the third quarter of 1997.  Product development
expenses of $5.5 million increased $0.6 million primarily due to development
work on new products during the third quarter of 1998.  Sales and marketing
expenses of $13.0 million decreased by $0.6 million.  General and administrative
expenses of $9.0 million increased $1.7 million due to the amortization of costs
incurred for the implementation of a new internal information system which was
started up in July 1998 and the cost incurred for a business study conducted in
the third quarter of 1998 by the management consulting firm of Booz Allen &
Hamilton of the Company's future market opportunities and business strategies.

Interest expense of $3.0 million increased from $2.0 million in the third
quarter of 1997 due to an increase in debt outstanding and a higher interest
rate on the new Senior Notes than on the bank debt retired in May 1998.

Third quarter results included sundry income of $1.5 million primarily due to
foreign currency gains and the recognition of the equity income from the
Company's 33% equity interest in Servibanca S.A., a Chilean company.  This
represents a $1.9 million increase over the prior period, a period that included
foreign currency losses.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 - (CONTINUED)

The income tax provision of $4.1 million decreased $2.0 million due to a
decrease in taxable income. The effective tax rate was 36% for both periods.

Net income of $7.3 million for the third quarter of 1998 decreased by $3.5
million compared to the third quarter of 1997.  Diluted earnings per share were
$0.36 and $0.48, respectively for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and
1997.

COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

Total revenue of $445.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased by $1.6 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
Revenue from sales of equipment and software decreased $13.1 million primarily
due to a decrease in demand for large software systems in the U.S.  While the
Company's systems integration business has historically been somewhat variable,
the Company believes that additional factors contributing to lower revenues in
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 include spending commitments by its
customers to address year 2000 compliance, bank mergers and consolidations, and
on-going competitive pressures.  Revenue from maintenance and other services
increased $14.7 million due to continued growth in network services, partially
offset by the expiration of some maintenance contracts on older document
processing systems.

Total gross profit of $125.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 decreased $9.0 million or 6.7% compared to the nine months ended September
30, 1997.  Gross profit for equipment and software of $74.1 million was $5.8
million lower than the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The decline in the
gross profit of the equipment and software sales is primarily due to lower sales
and sales of less profitable equipment and system upgrades rather than more
profitable new integrated systems.  Gross profit for maintenance and other
services of $50.8 million was $3.1 million lower due to a change in the mix of
the types of services being provided and the effect of start-up costs on certain
new long-term service contracts.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 totaled $82.6
million, an increase of $3.5 million from last year.  Product development
expenses of $14.8 million were comparable to the prior year. Sales and marketing
expenses of $40.2 million increased by $1.1 million due to the higher level of
operating activities.  General and administrative expenses of $23.2 million
increased $2.1 million due to the amortization of costs incurred for the
implementation of a new internal information system which was started up in July
1998 and the cost incurred for a business study in the third quarter of 1998 by
the management consulting firm of Booz Allen & Hamilton.  Goodwill amortization
of $1.5 million increased $0.2 million due to a small acquisition during 1998.

Interest income of $1.1 million increased $0.5 million from the prior year due
to the investment of excess cash from the proceeds of the $150.0 million debt
offering in May 1998.

Interest expense of $6.1 million increased $0.4 million from the prior year
primarily due to an increase in the debt outstanding and a higher interest rate
on the new Senior Notes than on the bank debt retired in May 1998, partially
offset by gains on interest rate swaps and the capitalization of interest
expense on capital expenses incurred to implement a new internal information
system during the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 - (CONTINUED)

The income tax provision of $14.0 million decreased $3.7 million from the prior
year due to a decrease in taxable income.

Sundry income of $1.5 million increased $2.1 million from the prior year
primarily due to foreign currency gains and the recognition of the equity income
from the Company's 33% equity interest in Servibanca S.A., a Chilean company, in
the current year.

Net income of $24.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
decreased $6.5 million compared to the prior year.  Diluted earnings per share

BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA

As of December 31, 1998, BancTec will adopt FASB 131, which requires disclosure
of business segment data in accordance with the "management approach". The
management approach is based on the way segments are organized within the
company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. In the first
quarter of 1998, BancTec completed a reorganization of its business operations
into three business units - Service & Manufacturing, Worldwide Systems and
Plexus. Table 1 shows revenue by business segment, as it will be reported under
FASB 131. Table 2 shows revenue in the format that the company has previously
provided to investors as supplemental data.

          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)


                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On May 22, 1998, the Company sold $150 million of 7.5% Senior Notes due June 1,
2008 in a Rule 144A private offering.  On August 28, 1998 the Senior Notes were
registered as public debt.  Proceeds of the offering were used to retire the
Company's approximately $105 million of bank debt, with the remaining proceeds
to be used for other requirements.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 1998 were $31.3 million compared
to $21.7 million as of December 31, 1997.  Total borrowings were $155.7 million
as of September 30, 1998 compared to $107.9 million as of December 31, 1997.
Total working capital increased to $169.8 million as of September 30, 1998 from
$67.0 million as of December 31, 1997.  The $102.8 million increase in working
capital was primarily due to retirement of short-term debt from the proceeds of
the long-term debt.

Cash provided by operations was $45.0 million for the first nine months of 1998
compared to $32.0 million for the first nine months of 1997. The increase in
cash flow from operations was primarily due to changes in working capital items.

The Company believes that it has sufficient financial resources available to
support its requirements to fund operations, and is not aware of any trends,
demands or commitments that would have a material adverse impact on the
Company's long or short-term liquidity.

Funds to support the Company's operations, including capital expenditures, have
been derived from a combination of funds provided by operations, short
term bank financing, long-term debt financing and, to a lesser extent, by sales
of capital stock under employee stock option and purchase plans.

At September 30, 1998, the Company had the following debt instruments in place:
1) 7.5% Senior Notes due 2008, 2) Revolving Credit Facility, 3) Foreign Lines of
Credit and 4) Uncommitted Domestic Lines of Credit.  The Company had no
outstanding balances on the Revolving Credit Facility or the Uncommitted
Domestic Lines of Credit as of September 30, 1998.  The Company has available a
revolving credit facility of $70.0 million.  Unsecured foreign credit debt of
$4.2 million was also outstanding at September 30, 1998 under the foreign lines
of credit.  The Company also has available uncommitted lines of credit with a
group of domestic banks totaling $60.0 million.  These lines have a maximum term
of 30 days.

As part of its stock repurchase program, the Company bought 2,273,100 shares
during the nine months ended September 30, 1998.  The Board of Directors has
authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 1.0 million shares of the
Company's common stock over the next twelve months.  The repurchases will be
made from time to time in the open market using operating cash flow.

                 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - (CONTINUED)

The Company's backlog of orders scheduled for delivery over the next twelve-
month period increased 11% to $80.0 million compared to $72.0 million at
December 31, 1997, primarily as a result of new international orders for large
systems.  The Company's backlog excludes contracts for recurring equipment and
software maintenance, as well as orders slated for immediate delivery.

Inflation has not had a material effect on the operating results of the Company.


                               YEAR 2000 ISSUES

The Year 2000 problem relates to the inability of certain technology products to
properly recognize and process date-sensitive information relative to the Year
2000 and beyond.  Year 2000 issues impact the Company and substantially all
companies in the industries in which the Company operates.  During 1998, the
Company developed a plan to assess and address all potential risks it faces as a
result of Year 2000 issues. A corporate Year 2000 compliance team, as well as
various organizational/functional teams throughout the Company, has been formed
to ensure the implementation of this plan.

During the third quarter of 1998, the Company has completed the implementation
of an enterprise resource planning information system ("ERP System"), for use in
all the Company's domestic operations, which is represented to be Year 2000
compliant by SAP, the software vendor.  The implementation of this system cost
approximately $25 million.  The investment in this ERP system was primarily for
the domestic operations of the Company and there is no way to allocate the
portion of the $25 million which relates to Year 2000 issues.

Although the total remaining cost of executing this plan has not been finalized,
it is expected to be in the range of $5 to $8 million.  A significant portion of
this amount has already been expended.  The largest remaining dollar item is the
potential replacement of non-compliant personal computers, which may or may not
have occurred in the absence of the Year 2000 problem.  The Company has
organized the overall project into approximately 20 major projects, which are at
various stages of completion; overall, the Company believes it is approximately
50% complete with the execution of the plan.  Substantial completion is expected
to occur by June 30, 1999.  Plans are in progress to evaluate all of the
Company`s products for Year 2000 compliance.  This portion of the plan is nearly
complete and BancTec will notify all customers via its Year 2000 Website,
expected to be online by December 31, 1998.  The process of ensuring that the
Company's major suppliers and vendors are addressing their Year 2000 concerns is
on going and substantially complete.  

Not withstanding the Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts to date, achieving
Year 2000 compliance is dependent on many factors, some of which are not
completely within the Company's control. Should either the Company's systems or
the systems of one or more significant customers, vendors, or suppliers fail to
achieve Year 2000 compliance, the Company's business and financial condition

could be adversely affected. The Company intends to develop contingency plans
for those mission critical areas that might be affected by the Year 2000 problem
and will finalize plans after the evaluation and remediation phases are
complete. No litigation has been initiated against the Company in connection
with Year 2000 issues.

            FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS

From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements made by its
employees may contain "forward looking" information, as that term is defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). The Company
cautions investors that there can be no assurances that actual results or
business conditions will not differ materially from those projected or suggested
in such forward looking statements as a result of various factors. There are
many factors that affect the Company's business and the results of its
operations. The following is a description of some of the important factors that
may cause the actual results of the Company's operations in future periods to
differ materially from those currently expected or desired.

General Economic Conditions

The Company's business partly depends on general economic and business
conditions. The Company's sales are to businesses in a wide variety of
industries, including banking, financial services, insurance, health care,
governmental agencies and others.  General economic conditions that cause
customers in such industries to reduce or delay their investments in products
such as those offered by the Company could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

International Activities

The Company's international operations have provided a significant part of the
Company's growth during recent fiscal years.  The success and profitability of
international operations are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, such
as economic and labor conditions, political instability, tax laws (including
U.S. taxes on foreign subsidiaries) and changes in the value of the U.S. dollar
verses the local currency in which products are sold.  Any adverse change in one
or more of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Fluctuations in Operating Results

The Company's operating results may fluctuate from period to period and will
depend on numerous factors, including customer demand and market acceptance of
the Company's products, new product introductions, product obsolescence, varying
product mix, foreign currency exchange rates and other factors.  The Company's
business is sensitive to the spending patterns of its customers, which in turn
are subject to prevailing economic conditions and other factors beyond the
Company's control.  Any adverse change in one or more of these factors could
have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Technological Changes and Product Transitions

The Company's industry is characterized by continuing improvement in technology,
which results in the frequent introduction of new products, short product life
cycles and continual improvement in product price/performance characteristics.
The Company must incorporate these new technologies into its products in order
to remain competitive.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to continue to effectively manage technology transitions.  A failure on the part
of the Company to effectively manage the transitions of its product lines to new
technologies on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

     FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS - (CONTINUED)

Product Development Activities

The strength of the Company's overall business is partially dependent on the
Company's ability to develop products based on new or evolving technology and
the market's acceptance of those products. There can be no assurance that the
Company's product development activities will be successful, that new
technologies will be available to the Company, that the Company will be able to
deliver commercial quantities of new products in a timely manner, that those
products will adhere to generally accepted industry standards or that products
will achieve market acceptance.   The Company believes that it is necessary for
its products to adhere to generally accepted industry standards, which are
subject to change in ways that are beyond the control of the Company.
