Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of MatrixOne, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of the Adra Systems
business of MatrixOne Inc., as of April 30, 1998 and June 28, 1997 and the
statements of operations and investment of parent and cash flows for the ten
month period and year then ended, respectively. These financial statements are
the responsibility of Adra'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 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Adra Systems business of
MatrixOne, Inc., as of April 30, 1998 and June 28, 1997, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the ten month period and year then ended,
respectively, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

ADRA SYSTEMS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS:
Adra Systems (ADRA) represents the Adra Systems business of MatrixOne, Inc.
which includes Adra Systems, Inc., Adra Systems, GmbH and the Adra Division of
MatrixOne, SARL, all of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of MatrixOne, Inc.
(MatrixOne). ADRA is engaged in the development, licensing and integration of
design and manufacturing automation software. ADRA sells its products both
directly and through a network of domestic and international resellers.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying financial statements present ADRA's results of operations and
cash flows and its financial position as it operated as part of MatrixOne, Inc.
The financial statements for the ten month period ended April 30, 1998 and the
fiscal year ended June 28, 1997 include an allocation of certain corporate
expenses associated with MatrixOne's financing of ADRA's working capital needs
and certain operating expenses as discussed in Note F. As a result, the
financial statements presented may not be indicative of the results that would
have been achieved had ADRA operated as a non-affiliated, independent entity.
PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION:
The financial statements presented include the accounts of ADRA and its
operations in the United States and Germany. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combining the financial
statements of the three ADRA subsidiaries of MatrixOne.
INDUSTRY SEGMENT AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS:
The Company operates in one industry segment and is engaged in the development,
sale and post sale support of off-the-shelf software for computer applications.
No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's revenue.
Geographic segment information is presented in Note E.
CASH:
MatrixOne has funded all of ADRA's operations to date through its corporate cash
balances. Accordingly, no current cash balances are presented in the
accompanying financial statements.
<PAGE>
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:
Property and equipment, consisting primarily of computer equipment, and office
furniture and fixtures are stated at cost and are depreciated on a straight line
basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to five
years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
INCOME TAXES:
All of the Company's operations are included in the MatrixOne consolidated
federal income tax return. The income taxes for the Company reported in the
accompanying financial statements have been determined on a stand alone or
separate return basis as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS No. 109). Under SFAS No. 109
deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in
effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
ADRA accounts for software license and service revenue in accordance with SOP
91-1. Software license revenue is recognized upon delivery, provided that there
are no significant obligations remaining and collectibility of the revenue is
probable. Service revenue from customer maintenance fees for post-contract
support is recognized ratably over the maintenance term, which is typically 12
months. Other service revenue from training, installation and consulting is
recognized as the related service is performed. Deferred revenue represents
payments received by Adra in advance of product delivery or service performance.
Effective July 1, 1998, ADRA is required to adopt SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition." The effect of adoption is not expected to be significant.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS:
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise
Marketed," certain software development costs are capitalized upon the
establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological
feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software
development costs require considerable judgement by management with respect to
certain external factors, including but not limited to anticipated future gross
revenues, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware
technology. No software development costs were capitalized in 1998 and 1997.
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S 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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:
The functional currency of ADRA's foreign operations (France and Germany) is the
local currency. As a result, assets and liabilities are translated at period-end
exchange rates and revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates.
Foreign currency gains and losses arising from transactions are included in
operations, but were not significant in fiscal 1998 or 1997. Translation gains
and losses were not significant in 1998 or 1997 and are recorded in investment
of parent company.
B. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes includes the following:

------ ------
$2,620 $2,810
====== ======
C. COMMITMENTS:
ADRA leases its office facilities under various operating leases that expire
through fiscal 2001. Aggregate rental expense under operating leases was
approximately $18,000 for the ten months ended April 30, 1998. Rental expense in
1997 was not significant.
At April 30, 1998, minimum annual rental commitments under non-cancelable
operating leases were as follows (in thousands):
Fiscal Year Ending June 30,
1998 (Two Months) $ 13
1999 80
2000 58
2001 34
----
$185
====
D. STOCK OPTIONS:
Certain employees of ADRA participated in MatrixOne's stock option plans. Stock
options are granted at fixed exercise prices that are equal to fair value and
are accounted for under APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."
Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized related to stock options
in the financial statements. Had compensation cost been determined based on the
fair value of the stock options at the grant date under Statement 123,
"Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," the effect on reported net income
would not have been material.
<PAGE>
E. GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION:
Information regarding geographic areas is as follows:
United
States Germany France Total
------ ------- ------ -----
Ten months ended April 30, 1998:
Sales to unaffiliated customers $ 9,648 $ 2,118 $ 668 $12,434

Income from operations $ 1,907 $ 138 $ 607 $ 2,652
Identifiable assets $ 6,957 $ 667 $ 275 $ 7,701
F. ALLOCATIONS FROM MATRIXONE:
Prior to July 1, 1997, operating expenses of MatrixOne and ADRA were accounted
for on a combined basis. Effective July 1, 1997, operating expenses directly
attributable to MatrixOne and ADRA were accounted for separately with certain
common administrative support services allocated between the two businesses.
Expenses totaling $1,371 in 1998 and $10,110 in 1997 have been allocated to ADRA
using formulas which management believes are reasonable based upon ADRA's
proportionate use of such services or incurrance of such expenses. All other
costs directly attributable to ADRA are reported directly in ADRA's statements
of operations and have been paid by MatrixOne on behalf of ADRA.
G. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
On May 7, 1998, MatrixOne, Inc. completed the sale of the business and
substantially all of the net assets of the ADRA business to SofTech, Inc., a
public company that is one of the largest engineering through manufacturing
service and product providers.
SofTech acquired substantially all of the assets except for cash of ADRA, which
was an immaterial amount as of the transaction date. The purchase price for the
acquired assets was $11,400,000 in cash and short term note (excluding fees and
expenses of $560,000). In addition, there is contingent consideration of a
maximum of $2,200,000, 50% of which is payable in November, 1998 and 50% in May,
1999 if certain license revenue targets are met.
