                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

   1.  Basis of presentation and other accounting information

   The accompanying unaudited balance sheet at June 30, 2000, and the
   consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
   ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, should be read in conjunction with BancTec,
   Inc. ("BancTec" or the "Company") consolidated financial statements and notes
   thereto in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
   Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). 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. All
   significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

   Effective September 1, 1999, BancTec sold substantially all of the net assets
   of its community banking business to Jack Henry and Associates. For financial
   statement purposes, the Company treated the sale as a discontinued operation,
   and accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been restated in
   accordance with APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations -
   Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
   Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions."


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

   2.  Inventories consisted of the following:

5.  Debt

    At June 30, 2000, the Company had the following debt instruments in place:
    1) $150.0 million of 7.5% Senior Notes due 2008, 2) $45.0 million Tranche A
    Term Loan due June 2004 payable to banks in sixteen consecutive quarterly
    installments beginning September 30, 2000, bearing interest, at the
    Company's option, of either LIBOR plus 3.25% or prime plus 2.25% ($15.0
    million at 9.15% and $30.0 million at 9.775% at June 30, 2000), 3) $50.0
    million Revolving Credit Facility (the "Revolver"), providing for borrowing,
    at the Company's option, of either LIBOR plus 3.25% or prime plus 2.25%,
    with rates dependent upon the Company's debt to capitalization ratio, 4)
    $160.0 million subordinated unsecured "Sponsor Notes" due 2009, bearing
    interest at 10.0%, 5) $5.2 million subordinated unsecured Sponsor Notes due
    2009, bearing interest at 10.0%, and 6) Unsecured Foreign Lines of Credit.
    The Company had outstanding borrowings of $42.0 million under the Revolver
    at June 30, 2000, which is the maximum allowed under the amended agreement
    dated May 15, 2000. At June 30, 2000, the $42.0 million outstanding under
    the Revolver was comprised of $30.0 million at 9.62%, $10.0 million at
    9.63%, and $2.0 million at 11.50%. A commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused
    portion of the Revolver is payable quarterly. The Company had no outstanding
    balance on the unsecured foreign lines of credit as of June 30, 2000, and
    the weighted average interest rate on these lines during the quarter was
    1.375%. At June 30, 2000, the Company was not in compliance with the
    covenants under its Tranche A Term Loan and Revolver and was granted an
    extension of its temporary waiver through August 16, 2000 from its lenders.
    This waiver has been extended until September 15, 2000. Accordingly, the
    related loan balances are classified as current liabilities. The Company and
    its principal owners, Welsh, Carson, Anderson and Stowe ("WCAS"), are
    currently in negotiations with BancTec's lenders to restructure its existing
    bank debt. While the Company believes this effort will be successful, there
    can be no assurance that an agreement will be reached, the absence of which
    would have a material adverse impact on the Company's liquidity.

   8.  New Pronouncement

   In December 1999, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued
   Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition, ("SAB 101"). SAB 101
   was subsequently amended to delay the implementation date. As a result,
   BancTec will adopt the pronouncement in the fourth quarter of 2000. To the
   extent the guidance in SAB 101 differs from the generally accepted accounting
   principles ("GAAP") previously utilized by an SEC registrant, SAB 101
   indicates that the SEC staff will not object to reporting the cumulative
   effect as a change in accounting principle. Currently, the Company recognizes
   revenue for certain contracts upon shipment. While Management believes this
   method is compliant under existing GAAP guidance, SAB 101 requires additional
   criteria to be met such as customer acceptance and completion of installation
   prior to the revenue recognition event. BancTec is currently in the process
   of evaluating the impact of SAB 101 on its current recognition methods. The
   adoption of SAB 101 will result in the deferral of certain revenue.
   Accordingly, BancTec anticipates that the change will result in a cumulative
   effect adjustment for the change in accounting principle. The Company cannot
   currently estimate the cumulative effect of the change; however, management
   believes the impact will be material.

                             Results of Operations
Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and Three Months Ended June 30,
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1999
----

Consolidated revenues decreased $2.0 million, or 1.4%, compared to the second
quarter of 1999. The decline primarily occurred in the NAS segment which
experienced an external revenue decrease of $11.2 million (16.0%) to $59.5
million, significantly offset by increases in CNS ($7.3 million) and INTL ($1.9
million).  The NAS decline was due primarily to a reduction of Plexus software
sales and lower systems sales in Canada. In addition, large systems integration
sales were down slightly from the prior year quarter. During 1999, Plexus
operations were integrated with the rest of NAS, after which certain Plexus
resources were temporarily utilized for improving other BancTec software
offerings.  The impact of this action resulted in a current period decline in
core Plexus product sales. As a result, the Company is currently evaluating ways
to generate increased sales and to improve the operating efficiencies of Plexus.
The increase in CNS revenue was due primarily to the Galileo contract which
began in January 2000 and to a one-time payment of approximately $1.9 million.
The payment resulted from negotiations on the appropriate level of consideration
received under a major contract. The increase in INTL revenues resulted
primarily from an increase in sales for large systems in BancTec's subsidiary in
Japan, offset by decreases in the UK subsidiary and the rest of Europe. The UK
and European decreases related primarily to softer demand for large orders such
as remittance, check, and Giro processing systems. In Europe, end-user
consolidations and demand declines resulting from technological advances have
compelled BancTec to accelerate the process of focusing more of its resources on
Electronic Document Management ("EDM") solutions. While the Company's European
operations already service this market, the transition to a higher percentage of
EDM solution sales is further along in BancTec's subsidiary in Japan.

Consolidated gross profit of $14.4 million decreased by $21.4 million from the
prior year quarter.  Occurring principally in NAS ($23.9 million), the decrease
was offset partly by improvement in CNS ($3.1 million), mainly due to increased
sales volumes. The NAS decline was due to lower revenues combined with increased
costs ($6.9 million). The Company had certain contracts in a loss position as a
result of delayed implementations.  The impact of recognizing previously
inventoried costs and costs-to-complete accruals for these contracts resulted in
a charge of $6.1 million in the quarter.

                                 BANCTEC, INC.
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)

There is an on-going effort to realign the cost structure as a result of the
decline in revenue and to ensure the cost-effective delivery of products and
solutions while continuing to provide quality support to our customer base.
The Company is adopting an operational structure built upon functional teams
which will support one or more business units. This should result in a better
use of resources. In connection with this new operational structure, BancTec
eliminated approximately 200 positions on May 15, 2000, resulting in $2.2
million in charges, of which $1.1 million was recorded to cost of sales.

Operating expenses for the quarter totaled $27.4 million, increasing $3.7
million from the prior year second quarter. The increase primarily occurred in
selling, general and administrative expenses, of which $1.6 million related to
additional accounts receivable reserves, and $1.1 million related to severance
costs. Product development and goodwill amortization expenses for the quarter
remained relatively flat at $3.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Net interest expense of $9.0 million increased from the prior year second
quarter due to additional debt incurred by the Company resulting from the July
1999 merger. Included in the quarter's expense is $4.0 million related to
interest on the $160.0 million of Sponsor Notes. The holders of the Sponsor
Notes, WCAS, elected to defer this quarterly $4.0 million interest payment,
issuing a new note in the amount of $5.2 million, consisting of the $4.0
interest, and a $1.2 million fee which will be amortized over the remaining note
term (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

A pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $22.6 million for the quarter
resulted in an income tax benefit of $5.5 million compared to the 1999 second
quarter provision of $3.5 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations
of $9.3 million.  The consolidated tax rate for the quarter was 24.1%, bringing
the rate for the first half of 2000 to 28.0%.

           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)


Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and Six Months Ended June 30, 1999
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Consolidated revenues decreased $13.1 million, or 4.7%, compared to the first
half of 1999. The decline occurred principally in NAS revenues ($21.4 million),
offset partially by revenue increases in CNS ($7.1 million) and INTL ($1.2
million). The NAS decrease primarily related to declines in Plexus software
sales and lower systems sales in Canada. The revenue improvement in CNS related
mostly to the Galileo contract which began in January 2000, while the INTL
increase was primarily due to increases in large systems and EDM product sales
in BancTec's subsidiary in Japan, offset partially by lower sales in Europe.

Gross profit of $33.7 million for the first six months of 2000 declined $37.7
million from the prior year period. NAS accounted for approximately $35.6
million (94.4%) of the decline which was due primarily to lower than anticipated
revenues and increased costs ($6.2 million). The Company had certain contracts
in a loss position as a result of delayed implementations. The impact of
recognizing previously inventoried costs and costs-to-complete accruals for
these contracts resulted in additional expense for the period. In addition,
fixed costs did not decrease proportionately with the reduction in revenues for
the period.

Operating expenses in the first half of 2000 totaled $55.6 million, increasing
by $6.9 million from the corresponding prior year period and related mostly to
SG&A expenses for which the increase was $6.6 million.  To a lesser extent,
additional product development expenses ($0.5 million) contributed to the
increase. Goodwill amortization of $1.6 million was relatively flat for the six
months. Increases in the SG&A expenses for the six months related primarily to
additional accounts receivable reserves ($1.6 million), severance costs in SG&A
($1.1 million), loss on the sublease of the former corporate headquarters ($1.0
million), additional information technology expenses for the Galileo project
($1.2 million), and certain trailing merger expenses ($0.3 million).

Net interest expense for the first six months increased by $11.9 million to
$17.7 million, primarily due to the additional debt related to the July 1999
merger.  Included in the period's expense is $8.0 million related to interest on
Sponsor Notes. The holders of these Notes, WCAS, elected to defer the second
quarter $4.0 million interest payment, issuing a new note totaling $5.2 million,
consisting of the $4.0 million interest and a fee of $1.2 million, which will be
amortized over the remaining life of the Sponsor Notes.

Sundry income decreased by $0.8 million for the first six months due to larger
foreign currency transaction losses in the current year.

The current year-to-date income tax benefit of $11.2 million on a pre-tax loss
of $40.1 represents an effective tax rate of 28.0%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2000 increased to $32.9 million from
$20.3 million as of December 31, 1999 due primarily to increased net borrowings
of $36.4 million, offset by purchases of property, plant and equipment of $13.5
million and cash flows used in operating activities of $8.5 million.  The $8.5
million compares to $13.0 million of cash provided by operating activities in
the first half of 1999.  The change was due primarily to a $39.7 million
decrease in net income from continuing operations for the comparative periods
which was primarily offset by a decrease in inventories ($14.8 million this year
as compared to an increase in the prior year).

At June 30, 2000, the Company had a secured credit agreement with financial
institutions, which provides for a $50.0 million short-term revolving credit
facility. This Revolver contains restrictive covenants which also apply to the
Tranche A Term Loan. The covenants have variable parameters which, among other
things, restrict payment of dividends, require the Company to maintain a minimum
EBITDA to interest expense ratio, as defined, limit the maximum debt to EBITDA,
restrict the minimum fixed charge to interest expense ratio and limit capital
expenditures. At June 30, 2000, the Company was not in compliance with the
covenants under its Tranche A Term Loan and Revolver and was Granted a temporary
waiver through August 16, 2000 from its lenders. This waiver has been extended
through September 15, 2000. The Company and its principal owners, WCAS, are
currently in negotiations with its lenders to restructure its existing bank
debt. While the Company believes this effort will be successful, there can be no
assurance that an agreement will be reached, the absence of which would have a
material adverse impact on the Company's liquidity. The Revolver bears interest
at the lender's prime commercial rate plus 2.25%, or at the Company's option,
the LIBOR on Eurocurrency borrowings plus 3.25%, with rates dependent upon the
Company's debt to capitalization ratio. A commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused
Revolver is payable quarterly. The Company had outstanding balances under the
Revolver of $42.0 million at August 8, 2000, which is the maximum allowed under
the amended agreement dated May 15, 2000. There were no outstanding balances on
the foreign credit agreements as of June 30, 2000. The weighted average interest
rate on the foreign lines was 1.375% for the quarter.

While the Company believes that cash flow from operations and existing debt
levels will allow the Company to implement its present business strategy through
2000, additional debt or equity financing may be required during the remainder
of 2000 and in the future to fund the Company's growth and to satisfy its
existing obligations. The Company believes its efforts to restructure the
existing bank debt will be successful; however, there can be no assurance that
an aggreement will be reached, the absence of which would have a material
adverse impact on the Company's liquidity.

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

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. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to
reflect changes in assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated results or
changes to future operating results over time. 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
and solutions 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
versus 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 and solutions, 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.

           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-(Continued)



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 and
solutions 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 these transitions of
its product lines to new technologies on a timely basis could have a material
adverse effect on the Company.  In addition, the Company's business depends on
technology trends in its customers' businesses. Many of the Company's
traditional products depend on the efficient handling of paper-based
transactions.  To the extent to that technology changes impact the future volume
of paper transactions, the Company's traditional business may be adversely
impacted.


Product Development Activities

The strength of the Company's overall business is partially dependent on the
Company's ability to develop products and solutions 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.

Declining Financial Operating Results and Indebtedness

As a result of increased leverage and reduced performance over the last few
quarters, certain negative consequences of the Company's substantial
indebtedness could occur; however, the Company has seen few consequences to
date. The Company's future operating flexibility may be impacted. In addition,
the Company may be more vulnerable to an increase in interest rates, a downturn
in its operating performance or a decline in general economic conditions.

           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


The Company is exposed to certain market risks primarily related to fluctuations
in interest rates.  The following discussion summarizes the Company's financial
statements that are subject to such risks.

As of June 30, 2000, the Company had outstanding long-term debt of $150.0
million in Senior Notes issued in U.S. dollars at a fixed annual interest rate
of 7.5%. Interest is due and payable in semi-annual installments which began
December 1, 1998. The notes mature on June 1, 2008. The fair market value of the
Senior Notes as of June 30, 2000 is approximately $115.0 million based on an
estimated yield of 12%. After the July 1999 merger, the Company put the
following additional debt in place: (1) $160.0 million subordinated unsecured
Sponsor Notes due July 2009, bearing interest at 10.0%; (2) a $45.0 million
Tranche A term loan due June 2004, payable in sixteen consecutive quarterly
installments beginning September 30, 2000, bearing interest at the lower of
LIBOR plus 3.25% or prime plus 2.25% ($15.0 million at 9.15% and $30.0 million
at 9.775% at June 30, 2000); and, (3) a $50.0 million Revolver, providing for
borrowing at the Company's option, of either LIBOR plus 3.25% or prime plus
2.25% was also obtained. As of June 30, 2000, the Company obtained a second
Sponsor Note in the amount of $5.2 million, bearing interest at 10%, consisting
of a deferral of the quarterly interest of $4.0 million and a fee of $1.2
million. (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) At quarter end,
the Company was not in compliance with the covenants under its Tranche A Term
Loan and Revolver and was granted an extension of its temporary waiver through
August 16, 2000 from its lenders. This waiver was subsequently extended through
September 15, 2000. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related loan
balances as current liabilities. The Company and its principal owners, WCAS, are
currently negotiating with its lenders to restructure its existing bank debt.
While the Company believes this effort will be successful, there can be no
assurance that an agreement will be reached, the absence of which would have a
material adverse impact on the Company's liquidity.

The Company has only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments
and does not use them for trading purposes. They are used to manage well-defined
interest rate risks and generally consist of interest rate swap and/or interest
rate cap agreements. There were no such instruments in place at June 30, 2000.
