4.  ACQUISITION OF BLUELINE SOFTWARE INC.
 
    Effective the close of business on June 30, 1995, the Company purchased the
    stock of BlueLine Software Inc.  The total purchase price was $8,750,000 of
    which approximately 50% was in cash and 50% was in Apertus common stock.
    BlueLine develops and markets a suite of products for the centralized
    management of enterprise networks.  The acquisition was accounted for under
    the purchase method with the operations of BlueLine included in the
    financial statements from the date of acquisition.  The acquisition, based
    on preliminary information, resulted in goodwill of $2,089,000 which will be
    amortized on a straight-line basis over 7 years.  The purchase included a
    charge to earnings of $5,390,000 related to the write-down of purchased
    research and development and other acquisition costs.
 
5.  OTHER CHARGES
 
    Other charges of $5,820,000 include $5,390,000 of purchased R&D and
    acquisition costs related to BlueLine and the company recorded a charge to
    earnings of $430,000 for the closure of the DTS operations in Oregon.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 decreased $1.9 million
(15%) from the first quarter of fiscal year 1995.  This was mainly attributed to
the slower than anticipated market development, a lengthening sales cycle for
certain key accounts, and some deferred purchasing in anticipation of new
Apertus products.

Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, remained constant when comparing
the first quarter of fiscal 1996 (29%) to Cost of Revenues in the comparable
quarter of fiscal 1995 (28%).  This trend reflects a similar mix of product
sales between quarters.

Research, development, and engineering costs were 24% of first quarter fiscal
1996 revenues as compared with 17% in the comparable prior year quarter.  This
was primarily due to increased development resources dedicated toward the
completion of future projects combined with the decreased sales volume. Selling,
general, and administrative costs were 45% of revenues in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 as compared to 36% in the prior year comparable quarter.  This
increase reflects the costs associated with the continued expansion in the
commercial and international marketplaces combined with the decreased sales
volume.

Interest income increased due to a higher average balance in cash and marketable
securities when compared to first quarter of fiscal 1995.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $16,932,000 and
$20,313,000 at July 2, 1995 and April 2, 1995 respectively.  The Company
currently anticipates making capital expenditures of $1,600,000 during the rest
of fiscal year 1996.  These capital expenditures will relate to research and
development, data processing and software. The Company believes that cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities will be adequate to meet its anticipated
cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for the balance of
fiscal year 1996.
