ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
----------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Six months ended July 31, 1999 compared to six months ended July 31, 1998 and
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
three months ended July 31, 1999 compared to three months ended July, 31 1998
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues for the current six months of fiscal year 1999 decreased $35,205
or 9.8% compared with the comparable period of the prior year. Revenues for the
three month period ending July 31, 1999 increased $5,392 or 3.2% compared with
the comparable period of the prior year. The overall decrease in revenues for
the current six month period is attributable a decrease in maintenance revenue
during the current six month period.
Operating expenses for the current six month period decreased $8,892 or
(2.2%) compared with the comparable period of the prior year. Operating expense
for the three month period ending July 31, 1999 decreased $26,677 or 13.8%
compared with the prior year. The decrease in the six month and three month
period was due to the reduction of certain expenses such as legal fees, outside
marketing and a reduction in staff from the prior period to the current period.
The decrease in operating expense is offset by an increase in six and three
month software development by $22,075 and $11,038 respectively. The reason for
this increase in Software Development is that Multi Soft is amortizing capital
development that was not being amortized in the prior period.
Operating Loss, before other (expense) of $55,440 for the current six month
period increased $26,313 compared with the comparable period of the prior year.
Operating Loss, before other income (expense) $24,472 for the current three
month decreased $32,069 compared with comparable period of the prior year. The
reason for this increase in the six month period operating loss is cancellations
in maintenance coupled with a decrease in sales for the current six month
period.
Other (expense) for the current six month period was 60,592 as compared
with 43,348 for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase is
attributable to services rendered from Multi Soft to a new Subsidiary of Multi
Solutions.
For the current six month period , net income of $5,152 or ($.00) cents per
share was incurred compared with a net income of $14,221 or ($.00) cents per
share an decrease of $9,069. For the current three month period, a net income of
$36,120 or .00 cents per share was incurred compared with a loss of $32,130 in
the comparable period for the prior year an increase of $68,250. As previously
stated, the reason for the increase in income over the current three month
period is due to services render to the new subsidiary and a curtailment of
expenses.
Major Customers

revenues. In the first six months of 1996, IBM accounted for 24.3%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At July 31, 1999, the Company had a negative working capital position of
($275,465); and has been experiencing cash flow problems.
Management of Multi Soft has taken various steps to correct this situation.
Overhead costs have been cut drastically as a result of staff reductions and
curtailment of all outside marketing and advertising costs. In addition, senior
staff salaries were reduced and executive officers' salaries were partly
deferred. Secondly, Multi Soft broadened its product base into the Windows
environment and has made its Windows based products easier to learn and use.
Multi Soft has entered into an International Software Licensing Agreement
with IBM which grants IBM the non-exclusive rights and license to market an
extended runtime version of Multi Soft's WCL product as an IBM logo product.
This IBM EXTENDED VERSION of Multi Soft's WCL is named IMS Client ServerTM for
Windows. It provides remote presentation support for IMS. Multi Soft and IBM
also have entered into International Marketing Agreements to market Multi Soft's
WCL Toolkit under the name IMS Client Server ToolkitTM for Windows in the United
States, Puerto Rico, the Asian Pacific Region, Europe, the Middle East and
Africa and Canada.
It is Multi Soft's intent to remain a technology provider and search out
multiple distribution channels, rather than to try and grow via an expensive
direct sales force. This allows the focus to stay on technology, with a low
overhead cost for each distribution channel used. However, if the Company
obtains additional funds from operations or otherwise, it plans to expand
in-house marketing activities by advertising in trade publications and by
conducting targeted mailing.
Dividend Policy
- ---------------
Multi Soft has not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock since
its inception and does not anticipate the declaration or payment of cash
dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain earnings, if
any, to finance the development and expansion of its business. Future dividend
policy will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be
contingent upon future earnings, if any, the Company's financial condition,
capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors. Therefore,
there can be no assurance that dividends of any kind will ever be paid.
Effect of Inflation
- -------------------
Management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its
operations for the periods presented.
