         This Form 10-Q contains  forward-looking  statements (as defined in the
         Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995),  including but not
         limited to statements  regarding the Company's  expectations,  hopes or
         intentions regarding the future. Actual results and trends could differ
         materially from those discussed in the forward-looking  statements.  In
         addition,  past trends  should not be perceived as indicators of future
         performance.  Among the  factors  that could  cause  actual  results to
         differ from the forward-looking statements are those detailed elsewhere
         in this Report in  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations and in the Company's Securities and
         Exchange Commission reports.

Item 1.           Financial Statements


The condensed  consolidated  interim financial  statements  included herein have
been  prepared by Integrated  Systems,  Inc.  ("the  Company"),  without  audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although  certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in
financial  statements  prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles   have  been  condensed  or  omitted   pursuant  to  such  rules  and
regulations, the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make
the  information  presented not  misleading.  It is suggested that the condensed
consolidated  interim  financial  statements  be read in  conjunction  with  the
consolidated  financial  statements  and  the  notes  thereto  included  in  the
Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  February 28, 1997. The
February 28, 1997 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the
audited financial  statements,  but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying  condensed  consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in all material respects in conformity with the standards of accounting
measurements set forth in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28 and, in the
opinion  of  management,  reflect  all  adjustments,  consisting  only of normal
recurring  adjustments,  necessary to summarize  fairly the financial  position,
results of operations,  and cash flows for the periods indicated. The results of
operations for the interim periods  presented are not necessarily  indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.

                    November 30, 1997 and 1996 is unaudited)

1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The  condensed   consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of
Integrated Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of
all significant  intercompany  accounts and transactions,  and should be read in
conjunction  with the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
February 28, 1997.  These  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements do not
include all  disclosures  normally  required by  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

2.       Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is computed  using the weighted  average number of common and
common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares
result  from the assumed  exercise  of  outstanding  stock  options  that have a
dilutive effect when applying the treasury stock method.

The  following  table  sets  forth the  calculation  of  earnings  per share for
purposes of this report:

Fully diluted earnings per share, for all periods presented, were not materially
different from the amounts shown above.

3.       Contingencies

In January  1997, a former  employee  filed a complaint  against the Company and
certain of its officers,  alleging  claims for,  among other  things,  breach of
contract,  fraud,  negligent  misrepresentation  and labor code violations.  The
complaint  sought general and specific damages of no less than $1.5 million plus
exemplary damages,  attorney's fees and costs of suit. The Company filed answers
to  the  complaint   denying  all  of  the  allegations  and  asserting  various
affirmative defenses. In October 1997, the Company reached an agreement with the
plaintiff  to settle all  outstanding  legal  disputes  between  the two parties
resulting in an immaterial charge in the quarter ended November 30, 1997.

In fiscal 1997, a distributor for the Company's sales and service  subsidiary in
Paris,  France  filed a complaint  against  the  subsidiary  alleging  breach of
contract.  The complaint sought damages of approximately  $850,000. An answer to
the complaint was filed denying the allegations. In September 1997, the Court in
Paris ruled in favor of the Company in all material aspects of the complaint. As
such, the dispute was resolved with an immaterial cost to the Company.

In November 1997,  the Company and one of its customers  reached an agreement to
resolve a previous contract dispute.  The settlement  resolved all disagreements
between  the  parties  and  all  associated   costs  were  covered  by  reserves
established in prior periods.

In October 1997, Greenhills Software, Inc.  ("Greenhills"),  a supplier, filed a
demand for arbitration against the Company,  alleging among other things, breach
of contract,  fraud,  negligent  misrepresentation and misappropriation of trade
name.  Greenhills  seeks damages of  approximately  $30 million plus unspecified
punitive and exemplary  damages.  In December 1997, the Company responded to the
arbitration demand, and filed a counter-claim  against  Greenhills.  The Company
believes  it has  meritorious  defenses  to all claims  against  the Company and
intends to defend the claims vigorously.  This dispute,  however,  is subject to
inherent  uncertainties  and  thus,  there can be no  assurance  that it will be
resolved  favorably  to the Company or that it will not have a material  adverse
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


                                      -7-
<PAGE>


The Company is subject to various  other legal  proceedings  and claims,  either
asserted or unasserted,  which arise in the ordinary  course of business.  While
management  does not believe  that the outcome of any of the legal  matters will
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
there can be no assurance  that these matters will be resolved  favorably to the
Company.

4.       Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"),  "Earnings per Share,"
which specifies the computation,  presentation  and disclosure  requirements for
earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 supersedes  Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 15, is effective for financial  statements  issued for periods  ending after
December 15, 1997, and requires that prior periods be restated.

In June 1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued  Statement of
Financial   Accounting   Standards   No.  130  ("SFAS  No.   130"),   "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income," which establishes  standards of disclosure and financial
statement  presentation for reporting total  comprehensive  income in individual
components.  SFAS No. 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997, and will require earlier periods to be restated to reflect application
of the provisions of SFAS No. 130.

In June 1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standard  Board  issued  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 131 ("SFAS No. 131"),  "Disclosures  About
Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information," which specifies  disclosure
requirements  for segment  reporting.  The statement  supersedes SFAS No. 14 and
SFAS No. 18 and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997,
and requires earlier years to be restated if practicable.

In November 1997, the American  Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement  of  Position  ("SOP")  97-2  "Software  Revenue  Recognition,"  which
supersedes SOP 91-1. The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997 and therefore will be effective for the Company's  fiscal year
1999.

The impact of the adoption of the above  statements on the financial  statements
of the Company has not yet been determined.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

The  following  information  should be read in  conjunction  with the  condensed
consolidated interim financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item
1 of this  Quarterly  Report and with  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations  contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year  ended  February  28,  1997,  as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 1997.

Overview

Integrated Systems, Inc. ("the Company") designs, develops, markets and supports
software  products and provides  related  engineering  services  principally for
embedded  microprocessor-based   applications.  The  Company  currently  derives
substantially  all of its revenues from  licensing  these products and providing
related maintenance and engineering and consulting  services.  In July 1996, the
Company acquired  Epilogue  Technology  Corporation  ("Epilogue"),  a New Mexico
corporation  in the  business of  developing  network  management  and  embedded
Internet  software  for  telecommunications  and data  communications  equipment
manufacturers,  embedded software  suppliers and networking  related  integrated
circuit  manufacturers.  The  combination  was  accounted  for as a  pooling  of
interests.  The results of operations for Epilogue have been included only since
the date of acquisition,  as previous results were not significant.  In November
1996, the Company amended the terms of the acquisition of Diab Data, Inc. ("Diab
Data") which was  acquired in fiscal year 1996 in a  transaction  accounted  for
under  the  equity  method of  accounting.  Revising  the terms of the  original
acquisition  agreement  requires the Company to consolidate  the results of Diab
Data from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1997 forward.

Forward-Looking Information is Subject to Risk and Uncertainty; Additional Risks
and Uncertainties

Except for the historical  information  contained in this Quarterly Report,  the
matters herein contain "forward-looking"  statements and information (as defined
in the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involve risk and
uncertainty.  These forward-looking  statements include, but are not limited to,
the Company's  liquidity and capital needs and various business  environment and
trend  information.  Actual  future  results  and trends  may differ  materially
depending  on a variety of  factors,  including  the volume and timing of orders
received  during the quarter,  the mix of and changes in  distribution  channels
through which the Company's  products are sold, the timing and acceptance of new
products and product enhancements by the Company or its competitors,  changes in
pricing,  buyouts of run-time  licenses,  product life cycles,  the level of the
Company's sales of third party products, purchasing patterns of distributors and
customers, competitive conditions in the industry, business cycles affecting the
markets in which the Company's products are sold,  extraordinary events, such as
litigation or acquisitions,  including related charges,  and economic conditions
generally or in various geographic areas. In particular, the economic conditions
in certain countries in Asia have worsened  significantly in recent months.  The
majority  of the  Company's  Asian  business  is  derived  in  Japan,  where the
down-turn  has been less  significant,  but the impact on the  Company's  future
results is uncertain.  All of the  foregoing  factors are difficult to forecast.
The future  operating  results of the Company may fluctuate as a result of these
and the other risk factors  detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended February 28, 1997, and other  documents  filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Due to all of the foregoing factors, the Company believes that  period-to-period
comparisons  of its results of operations  are not  necessarily  meaningful  and
should not be relied upon as an  indication  of future  performance.  During the
previous  fiscal year,  the  Company's  actual  performance  did not meet market
expectations.  It is  likely  that,  in  some  future  quarters,  the  Company's
operating  results will be below the  expectations  of stock market analysts and
investors.  Consequently,  the purchase or holding of the Company's Common Stock
involves an extremely high degree of risk.

Revenue

The Company's total revenue  increased 12% to $29.9 million in the third quarter
of fiscal year 1998 from $26.8  million in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997
and 14% to $86.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 1998 from $76.1
million in the first nine months of fiscal year 1997.  Product revenue increased
3% to $19.2  million in the third quarter of fiscal year 1998 from $18.5 million
in the third  quarter of fiscal year 1997,  and 4% to $51.3 million in the first
nine months of fiscal  year 1998 from $49.3  million in the first nine months of
fiscal year 1997. The dollar increase in product revenue in the third quarter of
fiscal  year  1998 is  primarily  due to  sales  of the  pRISM+(TM)  development
environment,  which was released in the second  quarter of fiscal year 1998. The
increase in product  revenue in the nine month period of fiscal year 1998 is due
to sales of pRISM+  and the  inclusion  of  product  revenue  from Diab Data and
Epilogue in fiscal year 1998,  plus  increased  unit  shipments  of  SNiFF+(TM).
Services  revenue  increased 30% to $10.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal
year 1998 from $8.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997, and 32% to
$35.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 1998 from $26.7 million in
the first nine months of fiscal year 1997. These dollar increases are the result
of both an increase in  maintenance  revenue  from a growing  installed  base of
customers,   and  from  an  increase  in  engineering  services  and  consulting
activities at Doctor Design,  Inc. ("Doctor  Design"),  an engineering  services
subsidiary  specializing  in  multimedia  hardware,   software  and  application
specific integrated circuit technology.

The  percentage  of  the  Company's   total  revenue  from   customers   located
internationally  was 44% and 36% in the third  quarters of fiscal years 1998 and
1997,  respectively,  and 39% and 37% in the first nine  months of fiscal  years
1998 and 1997,  respectively.  These  percentage  increases are primarily due to
growth in product and services revenue in Asia, particularly in Japan.

Costs and Expenses

The  Company's  cost of product  revenue  as a  percentage  of  product  revenue
increased  from 14% in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997 to 17% in the third
quarter  of fiscal  year 1998,  and from 14% in the first nine  months of fiscal
year 1997 to 19% in the first nine months of fiscal year 1998.  These percentage
increases  were due to a higher  proportion of product  revenue being subject to
third party  royalty  costs.  The increase  from the first nine months of fiscal
year 1997 to fiscal year 1998 was also due to the  write-off of certain  prepaid
royalties in the second quarter of fiscal year 1998.


                                      -11-

The  Company's  cost of services  revenue as a  percentage  of services  revenue
increased  from 51% in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997 to 54% in the third
quarter  of fiscal  year 1998,  and from 46% in the first nine  months of fiscal
year 1997 to 56% in the first nine months of fiscal year 1998.  These percentage
increases  were due,  in part,  to an  increase  in the  proportion  of services
revenue  derived from fixed price  contracts,  which  generally have lower gross
margins than time and material consulting contracts. In particular,  the cost of
services revenue as a percentage of services revenue increased in the first nine
months of fiscal year 1998 as the Company was required to procure a  significant
amount of hardware for integration,  which had no associated gross margin, under
the terms of a large  engineering  services  contract  completed  in the  second
quarter of fiscal year 1998. Excluding this anomaly, cost of services revenue as
a  percentage  of  services  revenue was 52% for the first nine months of fiscal
year 1998.

Marketing  and sales  expenses were $12.1 million and $10.0 million in the third
quarters of fiscal years 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  representing 40% and 37%
of total revenue, respectively, and $33.4 million and $28.7 million in the first
nine months of fiscal  years 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  representing  38% of
total revenue in both nine month periods.  The dollar  increases for all periods
presented were primarily due to the increased marketing activity associated with
the introduction of pRISM+ and the Company's  continued  investment in its sales
and support infrastructure.

Research  and  development  expenses  were $4.7  million and $4.1 million in the
third quarters of fiscal years 1998 and 1997, respectively, representing 16% and
15%, respectively,  of total revenue, and $14.2 million and $12.3 million in the
first nine months of fiscal years 1998 and 1997, respectively,  representing 16%
of total  revenue  in both nine month  periods.  The  dollar  increases  for all
periods  presented  were  primarily  the  result  of  increased   personnel  and
consulting  expenses to support the Company's  continued  emphasis on developing
new  products,  including  pRISM+ and  MATRIXx(R)  version  6.0,  and  enhancing
existing products.  Costs that are required to be capitalized under Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 86,  "Accounting  for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" ("SFAS No. 86") were $575,000
in the third  quarter of fiscal  year 1998  compared  to  $350,000  in the third
quarter of fiscal  year 1997,  and  $825,000  in the first nine months of fiscal
year 1998  compared to  $1,085,000 in the first nine months of fiscal year 1997.
The  amounts  capitalized  represent  approximately  11% of total  research  and
development  expenditures  for the third quarter of fiscal year 1998 compared to
8% in the third  quarter of the previous  fiscal year,  and 5% in the first nine
months of fiscal  year 1998  compared  to 8% in the first nine  months of fiscal
year 1997. The amount of research and development  expenditures capitalized in a
given time period  depends  upon the nature of the  development  performed  and,
accordingly,  amounts  capitalized  may vary from period to period.  Capitalized
costs are being  amortized  using the greater of the amount  computed  using the
ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and
anticipated future gross revenues for that product,  or on a straight line basis
over three  years.  Amortization  for the third  quarter of fiscal year 1998 was
$139,000  compared to $238,000  for the third  quarter of fiscal year 1997,  and
$652,000 in the first nine  months of fiscal  year 1998  compared to $673,000 in
the first nine months of fiscal year 1997.

General and  administrative  expenses  were $2.7 million and $2.2 million in the
third quarters of fiscal years 1998 and 1997, respectively,  representing 9% and
8% of total  revenue,  respectively,  and $8.5  million and $6.3  million in the
first nine months of fiscal years 1998 and 1997, respectively,  representing 10%
and 8% of total  revenue,  respectively.  The dollar  increases  for all periods
presented were primarily the result of increased  headcount,  related in part to
the acquisition of Epilogue and the  consolidation  of Diab Data,  combined with
significant growth at Doctor Design.

Acquisition-related  and other  costs in the third  quarter of fiscal  year 1997
comprised a one-time payment to the executives of a previously acquired company,
Diab Data,  made in  conjunction  with a revision  to the  original  acquisition
agreement.  Acquisition-related  and other  costs for the  nine-month  period of
fiscal year 1997 also include the  write-off of intangible  assets  related to a
prior acquisition and direct costs related to the acquisition of Epilogue.

Interest and other  income was $1.1 million in the third  quarter of fiscal 1998
compared to $1.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997.  The increase
is primarily due to higher interest  earned from increased  holdings of cash and
marketable  securities  in fiscal year 1998.  Interest and other income was $2.9
million in the first nine months of fiscal year 1998 compared to $3.2 million in
the first nine months of fiscal year 1997. This decrease is due to the inclusion
in fiscal year 1997 of net operating income of $680,000 from Diab Data which was
required to be accounted  for under the equity  method of  accounting  until the
fourth  quarter of fiscal year 1997,  offset,  in part,  by  increased  interest
income in fiscal year 1998.

The effective  income tax rate for the three and nine months ended  November 30,
1997 was 34% compared to an effective income tax rate of 35% in the prior year's
comparable periods. The lower rate in fiscal year 1998 is primarily attributable
to an increase in federal R&D credits available in fiscal year 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company funds its operations and capital  expenditures  principally  through
cash flows from  operations.  As of  November  30,  1997,  the Company had $63.6
million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.  This represents an
increase of $8.9 million from  February  28,  1997.  In April 1997,  the Company
announced  that  the  Board of  Directors  had  authorized  a new  common  stock
repurchase  program allowing the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of
common stock for cash, from time-to-time at market prices. No time limit was set
for the completion of the program  although the Company is restricted to certain
periods in which shares may be purchased. In April 1997, the Company repurchased
20,000 shares of common stock for $187,500.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first nine months of fiscal
year 1998 totaled $10.5 million, as compared to net cash used of $3.5 million in
the first  nine  months of fiscal  year 1997.  Net cash  provided  by  operating
activities  increased,  in spite of a decrease in net  income,  due mainly to an
improvement in the management of accounts  receivable and accounts payable,  and
changes  in accrued  payroll  and other  accrued  liabilities  and income  taxes
payable.

Net cash used in investing  activities  totaled  $26.3 million in the first nine
months of fiscal year 1998  compared to $26.4  million in fiscal year 1997.  Net
purchases of marketable  securities increased  significantly in fiscal year 1998
as the Company continued to invest excess cash in  interest-bearing  securities.
Additions  to  property  and  equipment  were  higher  in  fiscal  year 1997 due
primarily to the purchase of a building in March 1996.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $3.4 million in the first nine
months of fiscal year 1998 compared to $19.4 million in the first nine months of
fiscal year 1997. Net cash provided by financing  activities  was  significantly
higher in the first nine  months of fiscal  1997 due to the  issuance  of common
stock in May 1996. The first nine months of fiscal year 1997 also benefited from
a large tax benefit from disqualifying dispositions of common stock.

The Company  believes  that cash flows from  operations,  together with existing
cash  balances,  will be adequate to meet the Company's  cash  requirements  for
working  capital,  stock  repurchase  and capital  expenditures  for the next 12
months and the foreseeable future.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"),  "Earnings per Share,"
which specifies the computation,  presentation  and disclosure  requirements for
earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 supersedes  Accounting Principles Board Opinion

1997, and requires earlier years to be restated if practicable.

In November 1997, the American  Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement  of  Position  ("SOP")  97-2  "Software  Revenue  Recognition,"  which
supersedes SOP 91-1. The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997 and therefore will be effective for the Company's  fiscal year
1999.

The impact of the adoption of the above  statements on the financial  statements
of the Company has not yet been determined.
