                          THE MACNEAL-SCHWENDLER CORPORATION
                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                     (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1:   DISPOSITION OF PRODUCT LINE

     On July 25, 1996, The MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation ("Company") sold its
Electronics Business Unit ("EBU") to Ansoft Corporation for $5,600,000.  In 
association with the sale, the Company created reserves to account for certain
direct incremental expenses associated with the sale of the EBU.  Such reserves
are accounted for as a component of accrued liabilities and include the 
following items:

     Labor cost adjustment reserve              $  1,460,000
     Facility reserve                                600,000
     Transition costs                                590,000
     Increased bad debt reserve                      200,000
                                                ------------
                                                $  2,850,000
                                                ------------
                                                ------------

Due to the level of reserves and other direct expenses associated with the sale
of the EBU, there was no gain on sale.


NOTE 2:   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial information is condensed from 
that which would appear in the annual financial statements and should be 
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in 
The MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year 
ended January 31, 1996.

     Supplemental cash flow information for taxes paid during the six months 
ended July 31, 1996 and 1995 were $2,159,000 and $1,094,000, respectively. 
Additionally, the Company paid interest of $2,227,000 and $2,511,000 on its 
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2004 during the six months ended 
July 31, 1996 and July 31, 1995, respectively.

     Fully diluted earnings per share calculated under the treasury method were
anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended July 31, 1996.  Fully diluted 
earnings per share under the treasury method are calculated by dividing net 
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding 
during the period, adjusted for the pro forma effects of stock option exercises 
and debenture conversions.

     All interim financial data is unaudited but, in the opinion of management,
reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation thereof.  However, 
it should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates may be 
less precise than at year end.  Operating results for the six months ended 
July 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be 
expected for the year ended January 31, 1997.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial information for 
the three months and six months ended July 31, 1995 in order to conform to the 
July 31, 1996 presentation.

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

THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1996

       The Company recorded total revenues of $32,759,000 for the three 
months ended July 31, 1996 compared to total revenues of $32,045,000 for the 
same period in the prior fiscal year, an increase of 2%. Revenues in Asia 
Pacific grew 12% compared to the same quarter last year, while revenues in 
both Europe and the Americas declined by 1%. However, excluding the 
unfavorable effects of exchange rate fluctuations, revenues in Europe and 
Asia Pacific actually increased by 8% and 29%, respectively. Consolidated 
revenues grew in nearly every line of software except MSC/NASTRAN and 
MSC/ARIES. Revenues from MSC/ARIES continue to be negatively impacted by the 
loss of a key license agreement with Ford Motor Company. Additionally, the 
Company is experiencing increasing downward pricing pressures on MSC/NASTRAN 
revenues due to increased competition from other providers of analysis 
software, especially in North America. This decline in revenues was more than 
offset by revenue growth from other lines of the Company's software, 
including MSC/NASTRAN FOR WINDOWS. On a geographical basis, the Americas 
represented 43%, Europe represented 30%, and Asia Pacific represented 27% of 
total revenues for the quarter.

       Cost of revenue decreased $330,000, or 7%, as a result of a decrease 
in the amortization of capitalized software costs compared to the second 
quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in the cost of revenue was 
mitigated by a moderate increase in third party royalty expenses, which 
resulted from a significant increase in the sale of software products for 
which the Company pays royalties. Research and development costs increased 
$1,107,000, or 21%, primarily due to the significant decrease in the 
capitalization of software costs compared to the prior year. Excluding this 
fluctuation caused by differing rates of software capitalization, the 
increase in "core" research and development expenses was a more modest 
9%. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily in the 
Company's European and Asia Pacific operations, due to the expanded 
infrastructure necessary to support the increased level of revenues in the 
future. The resulting increases as described above generated an overall 
increase in operating expenses of 9%, to $28,658,000, compared to the same 
quarter last year.

        The Company's resulting income from operations for the quarter ended 
July 31, 1996 was $4,101,000, a 29% decrease from operating income of 
$5,781,000 during the second quarter last year.

       Nonoperating income and expense variances are primarily due to foreign 
exchange rate losses caused by a strengthening U.S. dollar.

       Net income was $1,850,000 compared to net income of $3,545,000 in the 
prior year, a decrease of 48%. Primary earnings per share for the three 
months ended July 31, 1996 were $0.14 compared to $0.26 for the three months 
ended July 31, 1995.

       On July 25, 1996, The Company sold its Electronics Business Unit 
("EBU") to Ansoft Corporation for $5,600,000. The sale included the MSC/EMAS 
product line and all associated development, sales, and administrative 
employees. Historically, EBU revenues have represented approximately 3% of 
total revenues, while EBU operating expenses have accounted for a comparable 
percentage of total expenses. Due to the low historical contribution of EBU 
revenues and expenses to the Company's total revenues and expenses, the sale 
of the EBU is expected to have a minimal impact on future revenues, operating 
expenses, and earnings.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1996

       The Company recorded total revenues of $64,951,000 for the six months 
ended July 31, 1996 compared to total revenues of $62,535,000 for the same 
period in the prior fiscal year, a 4% increase. Revenues in Europe and Asia 
Pacific grew 9% and 15%, respectively, compared to the same period last year, 
while revenues in the Americas declined by 6%. However, excluding the 
unfavorable effects of exchange rate fluctuations, revenues in

                                       8

<PAGE>

Europe and Asia Pacific increased by 14% and 27%, respectively. Consolidated 
revenues grew in nearly every line of software except MSC/NASTRAN and 
MSC/ARIES. Revenues from MSC/NASTRAN continue to be adversely affected by 
pricing pressures from other providers of analysis software, especially in 
North America, while revenues from MSC/ARIES continue to be negatively 
impacted by the loss of a key license agreement with Ford Motor Company. This 
decline in revenues was more than offset by revenue growth from other lines 
of MSC software, especially MSC/PATRAN and MSC/NASTRAN FOR WINDOWS, which 
experienced revenue growth of 14% and 80%, respectively, compared to the same 
period last year. On a geographical basis, the Americas represented 40%, 
Europe represented 33%, and Asia Pacific represented 27% of total revenues 
for the six months ended July 31, 1996.

     Cost of revenue decreased $161,000, or 2%, as a result of a decrease in 
the amortization of capitalized software costs compared to the first six 
months of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in the cost of revenue was 
mitigated by an increase in third party royalty expenses, which resulted from 
a significant increase in the sale of software products for which the Company 
pays royalties. Research and development costs increased $1,745,000, or 17%, 
primarily due to the significant decrease in the capitalization of software 
costs compared to the prior year. Excluding this fluctuation caused by 
differing rates of software capitalization, the increase in "core" research 
and development expenses was a more modest 7%. Selling, general and 
administrative expenses increased primarily in the Company's European and 
Asia Pacific operations, due to the expanded infrastructure necessary to 
support the increased level of revenues. The resulting increases as described 
above generated an overall increase in operating expenses of 11%, to 
$57,007,000, compared to the same period last year.

     The Company's resulting income from operations for the six months ended 
July 31, 1996 was $7,944,000, a 30% decrease from operating income of 
$11,291,000 during the same period last year.

     Nonoperating income and expense variances are primarily due to foreign 
exchange rate losses caused by a strengthening U.S. dollar.

     Net income was $3,527,000 compared to net income of $6,537,000 in the 
prior year, a decrease of 46%. Primary earnings per share for the six months 
ended July 31, 1996 were $0.26 compared to $0.49 for the six months ended 
July 31, 1995.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     A dividend of $.06 per share was paid on September 4, 1996 to 
shareholders of record on August 16, 1996. However, the Company has 
subsequently reevaluated its dividend policy and has eliminated its quarterly 
dividend in order to reinvest more of its earnings into the Company's 
business. The Company currently anticipates that it will retain all future 
earnings for use in its business and does not anticipate paying any cash 
dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.

     Historically, working capital needed to finance the Company's 
operations and growth has been provided by cash flow from operations. 
Management believes that cash generated from operations will continue to be 
sufficient for working capital needs in the foreseeable future. Net cash from 
operating activities was $9,313,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1997 
compared with $9,754,000 during the comparable period of the prior year. The 
Company's working capital was $26,048,000 at July 31, 1996, an increase from 
$21,182,000 at January 31, 1996. Cash and short-term investments were 
$15,392,000 at July 31, 1996 compared to $10,576,000 at January 31, 1996. The 
increase in cash and short-term equivalents was primarily the result of the 
sale of the Company's Electronics Business Unit to Ansoft Corporation for 
$5,600,000. The Company has an agreement for a $5,000,000 unsecured line of 
credit with its principal bank at the prevailing prime rate under which no 
amounts were outstanding at July 31, 1996.

     The Company provided reserves for consolidating its operations resulting 
from the acquisition of PDA Engineering in the third quarter of fiscal 1995. 
Included in this reserve were approximately $10,800,000 of items that relate 
to cash expenditures. As of July 31, 1996, approximately $10,600,000 in cash 
has been expended in relation to these items. The Company expects to incur 
additional cash outflows of approximately $200,000 over the next six months 
related to the restructuring reserve.

     Management expects to continue to invest a substantial portion of the 
Company's revenues in the research and development of new computer software 
products and the enhancement of existing products. Research and development 
expenses were $16,585,000 and $15,429,000 for the six months ended July 31, 
1996 and July 31, 1995, respectively, of which $4,483,000 and $5,072,000 were 
capitalized. Product development costs and the capitalization rate may vary 
depending in part on the number of products and the stage of development of 
the products in process.

     During the six months ended July 31, 1996 and July 31, 1995, the Company 
acquired $2,409,000 and $4,071,000, respectively, of new property and 
equipment. Capital expenditures during the prior and current fiscal years 
included significant upgrades to computer equipment to keep current with 
technological advances and expansion of facilities worldwide. The Company's 
capital expenditures vary from year to year as required by business needs. 
The Company intends to continue to expand the capabilities of its computer 
equipment which is used in the development and support of its proprietary 
software products. Although capital expenditures for the six months ended 
July 31, 1996 were less than the comparable period last year, management 
expects overall expenditures for property and equipment in future years to be 
consistent with those for fiscal 1996.
