Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- - - ------------------------------------------

1.  In the opinion of management of International Business Machines Corpo-
ration (the company), all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of the
results  for the unaudited three and six month periods have been made.  In
addition to the adjustments for normal recurring accruals, the company re-
corded charges of $.3 billion for software  writedowns  and  an  after-tax
gain  of $248 million for the sale of its Federal Systems Company (FSC) in
the first quarter of 1994 and restructuring charges of $8.9 billion in the
second quarter of 1993.

2.  The translation and other adjustments line of Stockholders' Equity in-
cludes equity translation adjustments of $2,574 million at June 30,  1994,
and  $1,658 million at December 31, 1993.  Other adjustments are included,
but amount to less than $1 million for both periods.

3.  The Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at June 30, 1994  in-
cludes  balances  relative to restructuring programs of approximately $2.4
billion in Accounts Payable and Accruals, $1.2 billion  in  Other  Liabil-
ities,  and $3.3 billion in Plant, Rental Machines and Other Property pro-
vided for capacity related actions.  At December 31, 1993, the approximate
restructuring balances were $5.1 billion in Accounts Payable and Accruals,
$1.6 billion in Other Liabilities, and $3.6 billion in Plant,  Rental  Ma-
chine  and  Other Property.  The company continues to make progress in im-
plementing specific  restructuring  plans  and  utilizing  the  associated
reserves  as  the plans are implemented and completed.  On an on-going ba-
sis, the company reviews the adequacy of these reserves against the  asso-
ciated restructuring plans.

4.   A supplemental Consolidated Statement of Operations schedule has been
provided for informational purposes only, to exclude the  effects  of  the
FSC  sale  and  software writedowns recorded in the first quarter of 1994.
The second quarter and first six months of 1993 excludes  the  effects  of
the $8.9 billion restructuring charge, the cumulative effect of implement-
ing  Statement  of  Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 112, "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," and FSC results.   These  supple-
mental statements are shown in exhibit 99 on pages 19 and 20.  This infor-
mation  is  presented  voluntarily  and  is  provided  solely to assist in
understanding the effects of these items on the Consolidated Statement  of
Operations.


ITEM 2.

                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                  ------------------------------------
            OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
            ------------------------------------------------
            FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994
            ------------------------------------------------


    While  much  work  remains  to  be  done,  the company has made steady
progress in reducing expenses and improving its competitiveness.   In  the
second  quarter, the company's total expenses declined 18 percent from the
second quarter of 1993, revenues  increased  for  the  second  consecutive
quarter, and gross profit margins held steady for the seventh quarter in a
row.

                                  - 6 -

    In  addition,  as  a  result  of  progress  in several significant re-
engineering projects currently underway, the company plans to  reduce  its
expenses  by  $8 billion from 1992 year-end levels by 1996, an increase of
$1 billion over its previously stated goal.  As of June 30, 1994, expenses
have been reduced by a cumulative $4.8 billion  toward  this  goal.    Re-
engineering projects include almost all material business processes within
the company.

    The  company's  hardware  offerings continue to remain under price and
gross profit margin pressure, particularly high-end products and  personal
computers.    Services  revenues, other than maintenance, continue to show
strong growth.  However, these service offerings yield lower gross  profit
margins  than the company's traditional hardware products.  As a result of
both these factors, the company's cost structure remains  under  continued
pressure.

    Although the company is operating in a strengthening U.S. environment,
the  business environments in Europe and Japan remain uncertain.  The com-
pany must continue to focus on executing its product transitions,  improv-
ing  time  to  market,  and  completion  of planned capacity and headcount
reductions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - - ---------------------

    The company's second-quarter 1994  earnings  were  $689  million,  and
$1.14 per share of common stock.  During the same period of last year, the
company  posted  a  loss of $40 million ($.08 per common share) before re-
structuring charges and $8.0 billion ($14.10 per common share)  after  re-
structuring  charges.   Second-quarter 1994 revenues were $15.4 billion, a
decrease of 1.1 percent from the second quarter of 1993.    Second-quarter
1994 revenues increased three percent after adjusting for the sale of FSC.
The  average  number of common shares outstanding for the period was 584.0
million in 1994 versus 570.2 million in 1993.

    Net earnings for the six  months  ended  June  30,  1994  were  $1,038
million ($1.78 per common share), including the FSC sale and the effect of
accounting  charges  for  the  change in software amortization periods re-
corded in the first quarter of 1994.  This compares to a net loss of  $372
million ($.66 per common share) before restructuring charges and the cumu-
lative  effect  of  SFAS  112 for the comparable period of last year ($8.4
billion and $14.80 per share after restructuring charges and  the  cumula-
tive  effect  of SFAS 112).   Net earnings, when adjusted for the FSC sale
and the effect of the  software  amortization  change  were  $982  million
($1.68 per common share).

    Revenue  for  the six months ended June 30, 1994 was $28.7 billion, up
.5 percent from the prior year's $28.6 billion.    Adjusted  for  the  FSC
sale,  revenue  increased four percent year over year.  The average number
of shares outstanding for the six-month period was 583.1 million  in  1994
and 570.4 million in 1993.

    The  company's  second-quarter  1994  revenues were flat in the United
States, Europe, and Latin America at $5.9 billion, $5.5 billion, and  $620
million,  respectively,  compared  with the second quarter of 1993.  Asia-
Pacific revenues were $2.8 billion, and Canada revenues were $580 million;
an increase of 14 percent and 13 percent, respectively, over the  compara-
ble  period of last year. Currency had a slight adverse effect on revenues
in the second quarter of 1994.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)
- - - -----------------------------------

Hardware Sales
- - - --------------

    Revenues  from  hardware sales were $7.7 billion and $14.0 billion for
the second quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively, an increase
of 2.3 percent and 5.3 percent when compared to the same periods in  1993.
When adjusted for the FSC sale, hardware sales revenues increased 3.2 per-
cent  for  the  second  quarter and 6.2 percent for the six months of 1994
over comparable periods in 1993.

    The hardware sales revenue increases were driven by  continued  growth
in  RISC  System/6000*, Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) products and
personal computers on both a second-quarter and six-months  basis.    Per-
sonal  computer  revenues  grew  in  the second quarter of 1994, year over
year, but at a slower rate, which was primarily a result of sluggish  U.S.
demand.

    AS/400*  hardware sales revenues declined on a second-quarter and six-
month basis when compared to the same periods of 1993.  Revenues were  im-
pacted as a result of transitions to newly introduced AS/400 models in the
second quarter of 1994.

    High-end  mainframe volumes increased while revenues decreased on both
a second-quarter and six-month basis as a result of year-to-year price re-
ductions, although the rate of price decline has been decreasing over  the
last few quarters.  The company's storage products revenues declined, when
compared to 1993's second-quarter and six-months results, due to continued
pricing pressures and lower volumes.

    Hardware  sales gross profit amounted to $2.6 billion and $4.4 billion
for the second quarter and first six months  of  1994,  respectively,  re-
flecting  an  increase  of  $.3 billion or 11.0 percent and $.5 billion or
12.0 percent over the same periods in 1993.   The  hardware  gross  profit
margin  for  the second quarter and first six months of 1994 was 33.2 per-
cent and 31.8 percent, respectively.   The increase in  gross  profit  was
driven by cost improvements from high-end mainframes, offset by lower per-
sonal  computer margins. Although the margin increased, it continues to be
impacted by competitive pricing pressures on high-end  products  and  per-
sonal computers.

Software
- - - --------

    Software  revenues  were  $2.7 billion for the second quarter and $5.3
billion for the first half of 1994, an increase of .4 percent and 1.4 per-
cent, respectively, from a year ago.    Software  gross  profit  was  $1.7
billion  and  $3.0 billion, for the second quarter and first half of 1994,
respectively, an increase of 1.3 percent and a  decrease  of  7.3  percent
versus  the  second  quarter  and  first six months of 1993.  The software
gross profit margin was 62.5 percent for the second quarter  of  1994  and
57.0  percent  for the first six months of 1994, respectively, an increase
of .5 points and a decrease of 5.4 points from comparable periods in 1993.
The six months gross profit and gross profit margin were impacted  by  the
accounting charges related to the software amortization change implemented
in the first quarter of 1994.  Excluding the effects of this change, gross
profit would have increased 1.8 percent and gross profit margin would have
been 62.6 percent for the first six months of 1994.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)
- - - -----------------------------------

Services Other Than Maintenance
- - - -------------------------------

    Services  revenues  were  $2.3 billion and $4.1 billion for the second
quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively, a decrease of 2.5 per-
cent and 3.1 percent when compared to the same periods of 1993.   Services
gross  profit amounted to $.4 billion and $.7 billion for the second quar-
ter and first six months of 1994, respectively, reflecting an increase  of
26.8  percent  and  a  decrease  of 4.9 percent from comparable periods in
1993.  The services gross profit margin was 19.6 percent  for  the  second
quarter  of 1994 and 17.6 percent for the first six months of 1994, an in-
crease of 4.6 points and a decrease of .4 points, respectively,  from  the
same periods last year.  The second quarter and six months of 1994 results
do  not  include  operational results from FSC, which were included in the
comparable 1993 results.  When adjusted for the effects of the sale,  ser-
vices revenues increased 23.7 percent and 22.6 percent, respectively, ver-
sus  the  same  periods  in  1993.    Services gross profit increased 41.0
percent and 4.2 percent, respectively, versus comparable periods  in  1993
after adjustments for the FSC sale, and the gross profit margins increased
2.4  points  for the second quarter and decreased 3.1 points for the first
six months of 1994.

Other Revenues
- - - --------------

    Revenues from maintenance were $1.8 billion and $3.6 billion  for  the
second  quarter  and first six months of 1994, respectively, a decrease of
3.3 percent and 2.6 percent when compared to the  same  periods  of  1994.
Gross profit amounted to $.9 billion and $1.8 billion for the second quar-
ter and first six months of 1994, respectively, a decrease of 10.4 percent
and 4.8 percent from a year ago.  The gross profit margin was 49.7 percent
and  50.2  percent  for the second quarter and first half of 1994, respec-
tively, a decrease of 3.9 points and 1.2 points from the same  periods  in
1993.    Maintenance revenue and gross profit margins are expected to con-
tinue to be adversely affected by the competitive environment and  result-
ing pricing pressures on maintenance offerings.

    Rentals  and  financing revenues were $.8 billion and $1.8 billion for
the second quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively, a  decrease
of  21.3  percent and 18.4 percent from comparable periods in 1993.  Gross
profit was $.5 billion and $1.1 billion for the second quarter  and  first
six months of 1994, respectively, a decrease of 21.8 percent and 16.1 per-
cent when compared to comparable periods of 1993.  The rentals and financ-
ing  gross profit margin were 59.4 and 59.8 percent for the second quarter
and first half of 1994, respectively, a decrease of .4 points and  an  in-
crease  of  1.6  points over the same periods of 1993.  The decline in re-
venue and gross profit in 1994 is a continuing result  of  lower  high-end
hardware placements and lower revenue streams being financed when compared
to 1993.

Expenses
- - - --------

    Selling,  general  and administrative expense was $3.9 billion for the
second quarter of 1994, a decrease of 12.3 percent from  $4.5  billion  in
the  second quarter of 1993.  For the six months ended June 30, 1994, this
expense was $7.1 billion, a decrease of 17.3 percent from the same  period
in 1993.  The six month decrease includes the before-tax gain from the FSC
sale.   Without this gain, selling, general and administrative expense de-
clined 12.7 percent from the first six-months of 1993.    These  decreases
reflect  the  company's  continued  focus  on productivity and process re-
engineering, restructuring programs, and expense controls.

    Research, development and engineering expense amounted to $1.1 billion
for the second quarter and $2.2 billion for the six months  of  1994,  re-
presenting a decrease of 20.7 percent and 19.8 percent, respectively, when
compared  to the same periods in 1993.  These decreases reflect the compa-
ny's actions to scrutinize development efforts and  reprioritize  them  to
growth areas, as well as the company's continued focus on productivity and
process re-engineering, restructuring programs, and expense controls.

    Other  Income,  principally  interest, amounted to $.5 billion and $.9
billion for the second quarter and first six months of 1994, respectively,
an increase of $.3 billion and $.5 billion when compared to the same peri-
ods in 1993.  The increases were due primarily to higher  levels  of  cash
and higher interest rates notably in Brazil, whose economic environment is
highly  inflationary.    Although  Other Income increased, exchange losses
from currency revaluations of cash largely offset this increase.

    Interest expense not included as cost of financing was $.4 billion and
$.8 billion for the second quarter and first six months of  1994,  respec-
tively,  an increase of 13.1 percent and 24.0 percent when compared to the
same periods in 1993.  The increase was primarily as a  result  of  higher
levels  of  local currency debt, notably in Brazil whose economic environ-
ment is highly inflationary, where interest rates are high.  Although  in-
terest  expense  increased,  this  increase  is  substantially  offset  by
exchange gains resulting from revaluations of the associated debt.  Inter-
est on total borrowings of the company which includes interest expense and
interest costs associated with rentals and  financing,  amounted  to  $551
million  and $1,175 million for the second quarter and first six months of
1994, respectively.  Of these amounts, $5 million for the  second  quarter
and $9 million for the first six months were capitalized.

    Exchange gains and losses are recorded as part of selling, general and
administrative expense.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (CONTINUED)
- - - -----------------------------------


    The  company  has  substantial  business interests in Brazil where the
government converted to a new currency (REAL) effective July, 1994.    The
new  currency  is tied to the U.S. dollar as part of the government's eco-
nomic plan intended to reduce inflation and stabilize the currency.    The
introduction  of  this economic plan has had no effect on current business
results.  However, we continue to monitor the implementation closely.   If
these  changes  in  Brazil are successful, it is anticipated that the eco-
nomic plan will have the effect of lowering interest income  and  interest
expense, as well as the exchange gains or losses associated with the local
currency cash deposits and borrowings.

    The  effective  tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 1994, was 42.3
percent, versus 10.7 percent tax benefit for the same period in 1993.  The
increase is primarily the result of the restructuring charges recorded  in
the  second  quarter  of 1993 not being fully tax effected, as well as the
mix of earnings and corresponding weighting of tax rates on a  country-by-
country basis.

     The effective tax rate for the first six months of 1994 was 42.5 per-
cent,  versus  an  11.3  percent tax benefit from the same period in 1993.
The change is a result of the same factors that impacted the second  quar-
ter effective tax rate.

Employees
- - - ---------

    As  of June 30, 1994, the company has approximately 235,000 employees,
down 21,000 from December 31, 1993.  As a result of the FSC sale, approxi-
mately 10,000 people either transferred to Loral, retired,  or  are  on  a
preretirement  leave  from  the  company.   The 1994 year-end objective is
215,000, with many of the reduction programs taking place  in  the  fourth
quarter.    The company may fall short of reaching the year-end objective,
due to increased volumes in certain product  areas,  such  as  mainframes,
that  will drive additional employee requirements.  In addition, there has
been an increase in employees due to  outsourcing  businesses  taken  over
during  1994.    If the company misses its employee objective, it is still
confident it can achieve the 1994 expense reduction targets.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- - - -------------------

    The Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at June 30, 1994  re-
flects continued improvement in the company's financial condition from De-
cember  31,  1993,  with  increases  in cash and stockholders' equity, and
decreases in total assets, outstanding debt, and total liabilities.

FINANCIAL CONDITION - (CONTINUED)
- - - ---------------------------------

Working Capital
- - - ---------------

    Working  capital  at June 30, 1994, was $10.3 billion compared to $6.0
billion at December 31, 1993.  Current assets decreased $.3  billion  from
year-end  1993  levels,  with  decreases  in  accounts  receivable  of $.6
billion, prepaid expenses of $.7 billion, and inventories of $.4  billion,
offset  by  an  increase  of  $1.4  billion in cash, cash equivalents, and
marketable securities.  The increase in cash and cash equivalents is  pri-
marily  attributable  to cash generated from operations, and proceeds from
the sale of FSC, offset by payments to settle outstanding debt.   The  de-
crease  in accounts receivable largely results from lower volumes normally
associated with the first half of the year.

    Current liabilities decreased $4.5 billion from December 31, 1993  due
to  declines  in accounts payable and accruals of $2.4 billion, short-term
debt of $1.7 billion, and taxes payable of $.4 billion.   The decrease  in
accounts payable and accruals is due to the normal seasonal decline of ac-
counts  payable  balances from their year-end levels, as well as lower re-
structuring  accrual  balances  resulting  from  separation  payments   to
employees  associated with the company's ongoing work force reduction pro-
grams.  The decline in short-term debt is driven by the company's  ongoing
efforts to reduce its overall debt obligations.

Investments
- - - -----------

    The  company's  capital expenditures for plant and other property were
approximately $.9 billion for the first half of 1994, a  decrease  of  $.2
billion  from  the same period in 1993, continuing the recent trend of re-
duced capital expenditures.

    In addition to software development expense included in research,  de-
velopment  and engineering expense, the company capitalized $.8 billion of
software costs during the first half of 1994, down $.1  billion  from  the
amount capitalized in the comparable 1993 period.  Ongoing amortization of
capitalized  software  costs  amounted to $.8 billion in the first half of
both 1994 and 1993.  Additionally, the company incurred $.3 billion in ac-
celerated amortization of capitalized software costs  resulting  from  the
software amortization change implemented in the first quarter of 1994.

Long-Term Debt and Equity
- - - -------------------------

    Long-term  debt  declined slightly from $15.2 billion at year-end 1993
to $14.9 billion at June 30, 1994.

    Stockholders' equity increased from  $19.7  billion  at  December  31,
1993,  to  $21.5  billion at June 30, 1994 as a result of increases in net
retained earnings of $.7 billion, capital stock of $.2 billion, and equity
translation adjustments of $.9 billion due to the  majority  of  worldwide
currencies strengthening versus the U.S. dollar during the period.

FINANCIAL CONDITION - (CONTINUED)
- - - ---------------------------------

Cash Flow
- - - ---------

    For the six months ended June 30, 1994, the company had an overall net
increase  in  cash  and cash equivalents of $1.5 billion compared to a net
increase of $1.6 billion for the same period in 1993.

    Net cash provided from operating activities was $4.4 billion  for  the
first  six  months of 1994, versus $1.4 billion in the comparable 1993 pe-
riod.  The period-to-period improvement in cash flow  from  operations  is
mainly driven by improved earnings and lower accounts receivable balances,
offset  by  a  decrease  in liabilities primarily resulting from lower re-
structuring accrual balances due to separation payments to employees.

    Net cash provided from investing activities was $.2  billion  for  the
first  six months of 1994, compared to a net use of funds in the amount of
$1.6 billion in the same period of 1993.  The increased cash flow from in-
vesting activities compared to the 1993 period is  primarily  attributable
to the proceeds derived from the sale of FSC in the first quarter of 1994.

    Net cash used in financing activities amounted to $3.0 billion for the
six  months  ended June 30, 1994, compared to a $1.9 billion net source of
cash for the comparable 1993 period, principally the result of the  compa-
ny's ongoing efforts to reduce its overall outstanding debt obligations.

Liquidity
- - - ---------

    During  the  first  half of 1994, the company received total cash pro-
ceeds of approximately $6.7 billion from the sale  and  securitization  of
primarily  trade  receivables.   The cash impact from these activities was
not material since the majority of such receivables are related to  exist-
ing revolving securitization programs.  Additionally, during the first six
months of 1994, the company issued, in lieu of purchasing on the open mar-
ket,  3.4 million shares of common stock to be sold to employees under the
IBM Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings - (continued)
- - - ---------------------------------------

    The consolidated and amended class action complaint was filed  against
IBM on  February 25,  1993 in  the  United  States District  Court for the
Southern  District of New  York alleging  violations  of Section 12 of the
Securities  Act of 1933  and Section 10  of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.  The complaint alleges,  among  other matters, that IBM disseminated
false and  misleading statements  concerning IBM's financial condition and
dividends during certain periods in 1992,  as a result of which plaintiffs
were injured in connection  with  their purchases of IBM  stock during the
period of September 30, 1992 through December 14, 1992.

    The  plaintiffs  seek  unspecified money damages.  IBM believes it has
good defenses to the allegations raised in the  consolidated complaint and
intends to defend itself vigorously.
