              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(A)  The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared from the
     accounts of SofTech, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company")
     without audit; however, in the opinion of management, the information
     presented reflects all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature
     and elimination of intercompany transactions which are necessary to present
     fairly the Company's financial position and results of operations.

(B)  The consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the net
     assets and operating results of the Company's Network Systems Group ("NSG")
     as a discontinued operation (see Note D below). The assets and liabilities
     of NSG have been reclassified in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets
     as Net assets of discontinued operations. The operating results of NSG are
     shown net of taxes in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income as
     Loss from operations.

(C)  Details of certain balance sheet captions are as follows:

                         SOFTECH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(E)  On November 10, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of certain
     assets and assumed certain liabilities of the Advanced Manufacturing
     Technology ("AMT") division of CIMLINC, Incorporated ("CIMLINC"). CIMLINC
     is a privately held Delaware corporation with headquarters in Itasca,
     Illinois.

     AMT is a technology group that targets its application software products to
     the Mold and Die industry. AMT has been operated as a separate profit
     center of CIMLINC since 1992. At the transaction date, AMT employed 31 full
     time employees and is located in Troy, Michigan. AMT's software products
     have been primarily targeted to the tier two automotive component suppliers
     in the U.S. marketplace that create molds and dies from electronic models.
     AMT's software technology enhances the efficiency of the mold building
     process by reducing project development time and costs and increasing the
     quality of molds and tools.

     SofTech acquired all of the material assets of AMT except for accounts
     receivable with a net value of approximately $2.0 million as of the
     transaction date. In the acquisition, SofTech acquired assets with a net
     book value of approximately $338,000 (unaudited) and a defined list of
     liabilities with a net book value of approximately $2,325,000 (unaudited).
     The assets acquired included office furniture, computer equipment and
     off-the-shelf software currently marketed and supported by AMT known as
     PROSPECTOR(TM), EXPERTCAD(TM), EXPERTCAM(TM), TOOLDESIGNER(TM) and
     TOOLMAKER(TM). The Company intends to continue to utilize such physical
     assets acquired in the business.

     The purchase price for the acquired assets was $1,750,000 in cash, 200,000
     shares of SofTech stock and the assumption of the above referenced
     liabilities. The source of the funds used in the acquisition came from
     existing working capital resources including the Company's credit facility
     with Deutsche Financial Services Corporation. SofTech provided CIMLINC with
     a guarantee that the shares received in the transaction would have a value
     of at least $1.0 million within two years or an additional payment would be
     due for the difference. The guarantee is cancelled if, during the two year
     period, the shares are sold or if the aggregate value of the shares equals
     or exceeds $1.4 million for a specified period. The additional payment, if
     due, can be made in cash or shares or any combination thereof at the
     discretion of SofTech; provided, however, that in no event will the total
     shares issued to complete this transaction exceed 19.9% of shares
     outstanding before the transaction. If the additional payment is to be made
     in shares the average closing price for the last thirty (30) trading days
     of the two year period shall be used to derive the per share value.

     In addition, SofTech will issue 157,143 shares of stock to a group of AMT
     employees to satisfy certain amounts due to those individuals upon the sale
     of AMT by CIMLINC. CIMLINC had entered into these arrangements with the key
     AMT employees in order to ensure their cooperation and continued employment
     in the event of a sale. SofTech has guaranteed the recipients of 65,714 of
     those 157,143 shares that the value of the shares will be at least $3.50 in
     two years or an additional payment will be made in cash for the difference.

     SofTech will also issue 357,981 shares of stock for the benefit of certain
     AMT employees. These individuals received a stock award that vests 50% at
     the first anniversary and 50% at the second anniversary of the transaction.
     In exchange for the share award these individuals agreed to take a salary
     reduction of either 10% or 20% from their current compensation plans. All
     of such salary reductions can be recovered by those individuals in the
     event that the revenue generated from the AMT business exceeds certain
     forecasted targets. If any of the recipients terminate their employment
     prior to vesting, their non-vested shares are forfeited and allocated to
     the recipients on a pro rata basis. If the employment of any of these
     individuals is terminated by the Company for any reason,

                                                                          Page 9

              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     other than fraud or illegal activity, during the two year vesting period
     the individuals are allowed to continue to purchase the non-vested shares.
     At the one year anniversary any participant can elect to withdraw from the
     program but will only receive 40% of the stock awarded to them.

     The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in the
     recording of capitalized software of $4.0 million, fixed assets of $.2
     million and goodwill of approximately $1.0 million.

(F)  The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred to internally develop
     software that is licensed to customers. Capitalization of internally
     developed software begins upon the establishment of technological
     feasibility. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological
     feasibility are expensed as incurred.

     Capitalized software costs of approximately $4,000,000 at February 28, 1998
     are included in other long-term assets in the accompanying balance sheets.
     Such costs are amortized using the ratio of current gross revenues for the
     product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues.
     During fiscal 1998, the Company capitalized $4,000,000 of software
     development costs in the acquisition of AMT in November 1997 and amortized
     approximately $54,000 of such costs to cost of products sold since that
     acquisition.

(G)  As previously reported in the Proxy Statement for the fiscal 1997 Annual
     Meeting, management has been reviewing its relationship with Coopers &
     Lybrand LLP due to the relocation of its corporate headquarters from
     Massachusetts to Michigan and has been evaluating alternative independent
     accountants in the process. Effective January 12, 1998, SofTech management,
     its Board of Directors and Coopers & Lybrand LLP, mutually agreed that due
     to the aforementioned relocation of corporate headquarters that it no
     longer made economic sense to provide audit services from the Boston office
     of Coopers & Lybrand LLP. SofTech management has recommended to the Board
     of Directors the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP to provide such audit
     services for fiscal year 1998. For this purpose, "audit services" include:
     examination of annual fiscal statements; review and consultation in
     connection with filings of annual reports and registration statements with
     the SEC; consultation on accounting matters; preparation of reports to
     management covering recommendations on accounting, internal control and
     similar matters; meetings with the Audit Committee; and audits of employee
     benefit plans. Ernst & Young LLP has also been asked to audit the financial
     statements of the Company's most recent acquisition for inclusion in an
     amended Form 8-K to be filed on January 26, 1998. The appointment of Ernst
     & Young LLP was approved by the company's Board of Directors.

     For the fiscal year 1996 and 1997 audits, Coopers & Lybrand LLP issued an
     unqualified opinion but modified its opinion with a "going concern"
     paragraph. This paragraph emphasized that given the company's minimal
     operating income and deteriorating relationship with a major supplier there
     existed "substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a
     going concern."

(H)  In the quarter ended February 28, 1998, the Company has adopted Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128) - Earnings per Share
     and all historical net income (loss) per share data presented has been
     restated to conform to the provisions of this statement. SFAS No. 128
     requires the disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic
     earnings per common share and dilutive earnings per share are computed
     using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent
     shares outstanding during the period, respectively. Dilutive common
     equivalent shares are calculated using the treasury stock method and
     consist of stock option grants. Options to purchase shares of the Company's
     common stock of 467,858 were included in the computation of diluted
     earnings per share for the three and nine months ended February 28, 1998.
     Options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock of 15,182 were
     included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three
     months ended February 28, 1997. These options were not included in the

     computation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended
     February 28, 1997 because they were antidilutive.

(I)  On March 27, 1998, Parametric Technology Corporation ("PTC") filed a
     complaint in the Massachusetts Superior Court claiming the Company owed
     certain amounts for purchases of software technology and maintenance under
     its now terminated reseller arrangements. On April 6, 1998, the Company
     filed a counterclaim denying PTC's claim and alleging that PTC owed SofTech
     moneys in excess of its claim. Such amounts due SofTech were the result of
     services performed by SofTech under a subcontract arrangement with PTC,
     amounts due from PTC for sales to SofTech's former Pro/E customers during
     the period October 1, 1996 to December 31, 1996, and breach of contract
     under an arrangement that extended SofTech's right to market software
     maintenance through September 1998. On April 7, 1998, a preliminary hearing
     was conducted. No ruling has been made as of the date of this filing. It is
     unclear, at this time, how this matter will be resolved.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

Total revenue for the three and nine months ended February 28, 1998 was
approximately $5.2 million and $14.3 million, respectively, as compared to
approximately $3.5 million and $11.4 million for the same periods in the prior
fiscal year. The current year revenues represent an increase of about 48% and
26%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended February 28, 1998 over
the comparable periods in the prior fiscal year. Service revenue for Q3 of
fiscal 1998 was approximately $2.4 million, as compared to approximately $1.6
million for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 50%. Service
revenue for the nine months ended February 28, 1998 was approximately $8.4
million as compared to approximately $3.7 million for the comparable period in
fiscal 1997, an increase of about 129%. The increase in service revenue is the
result of the acquisitions of the services-only businesses in the third quarter
of fiscal year 1997 and the maintenance revenue generated by the technology
group acquired in November 1997. Product revenue was approximately $2.8 million
for the current quarter as compared to $1.9 million for the same period in
fiscal 1997, an increase of 46%. Year-to-date product revenue was approximately
$5.9 million as compared to $7.7 million, a decrease of 24%. The decrease in
product revenue is the result of the transition to the mid-range software
offering during the second quarter of fiscal 1997 which has had a negative
impact on both hardware and software revenue as discussed under the section
labeled "Product Transition" in the Company's Form 10-K filing for fiscal 1997.
This decrease has been partially offset by revenues generated by the technology
group acquired in November 1997.

Product gross margin was 61.6% and 51.6% for the three and nine month periods
ended February 28, 1998, respectively, as compared to 36.4% and 32.9% for the
same periods in fiscal 1997. The increase in product gross margin in Q3 '98 as
compared to Q3 '97 is due to the acquisition of AMT in November 1997 and the
resulting sales of AMT software in the current quarter. The increase in
year-to-date product gross margin is due to the Q3 '98 sales of SofTech's
software and the increased margin on the mid-range software offering relative to
the high-end software offering marketed by the Company through September 30,
1996 as discussed in detail under the section labeled "Product Transition" in
the Company's Form 10-K filing for fiscal 1997. Gross margin generated from
service revenue increased to 46.3% and 43.5% for the three and nine month
periods ended February 28, 1998, respectively, from 38.4% and 32.9%,
respectively, for the comparable periods in fiscal 1997. The increase in service
gross margin is due to the service businesses acquired in the third quarter of
fiscal 1997, increased productivity of the engineering group and the
contribution of maintenance revenue from the technology group acquisition.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the third quarter of fiscal 1998
was $2,445,000, an increase of 129% from the third quarter fiscal 1997
expenditures of $1,070,000. Selling, general and administrative expense for the
nine months ended February 28, 1998 was $5,759,000 as compared to $3,010,000, an
increase of about 91%. The increase is primarily attributable to the technology
group acquired in November 1997, the service businesses acquired in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 and the higher variable compensation from increased gross
margin dollars.

Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 was
$373,000 or $.06 per share as compared to net income of $215,000 or $.05 per
share for the same period in fiscal 1997. For the nine months ended February 28,
1998, net income from continuing operations was $1,073,000 or $.19 per share as
compared to $691,000 or $.16 per share for the same period in fiscal 1997. The
first quarter of fiscal 1998 earnings included a pretax investment gain of
$253,000. The improved performance in fiscal 1998 relative to fiscal 1997 was
the result of increased gross margin on products and services and the increase
in service revenue from the fiscal 1998 and 1997 acquisitions.

The company expects to be sheltered from most, if not all, federal tax in the
current year due to the availability of net operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations - continued

The Company's reseller agreement with Parametric Technology Corporation
(NASDAQ:PMTC) expired on September 30, 1997 and was not renewed. On March 19,
1998, the Company announced that it had signed an agreement with Structural
Dynamics Research Corporation (NASDAQ:SDRC) to represent its products throughout
all of its markets in the United States. During the third quarter of fiscal 1998
the revenue generated from the sale of third party software was negligible.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The Company ended the third quarter with borrowings under its line of credit of
$2,464,000. The acquisition of the assets of CIMLINC's Advanced Manufacturing
Technology group in November 1997 as detailed in Note E herein and the funding
of expanded operations has been the primary use of the cash during the second
and third quarters of fiscal 1998 and the reason for the borrowings under the
credit facility.

Net cash used by operations totaled about $935,000 for the nine months ended
February 28, 1998. Net income adjusted for non-cash expenses generated
approximately $1,886,000, the reduction of inventory generated $389,000 and
growth in accrued liabilities generated an additional $261,000 which was offset
by accounts receivable growth of about $3.7 million. The accounts receivable
growth is primarily due to the concentration of revenue during the last month of
Q3 FY98 as compared to the last month of Q4 FY97, a few large slow-paying
accounts and several deferred payment arrangements on software maintenance.

Investing activities utilized approximately $2.1 million for the nine months
ended February 28, 1998. The cash utilized to acquire AMT totaled approximately
$1.9 million. Capital expenditures and loans to officers used approximately
$1,020,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The loans to officers
related to tax payments due by them from the share issuance approved by
shareholders in April 1997. Approximately $810,000 was generated from the sale
of securities. Borrowings under the line of credit facility and certain
borrowings for capital equipment acquisitions generated approximately $2.5
million.

The Company believes that the additional borrowings under the line of credit
together with the cash flow from operations will be sufficient for meeting its
liquidity and capital resource needs for the next year.

The statements made above with respect to SofTech's outlook for fiscal 1998
represent "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include general
business and economic conditions, maintaining agreements with technology
partners and the efficient and effective integration of the AMT business unit
into the Company, and the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified
personnel both in our existing markets and in new office locations.
