3.  Additional Interim Footnote Information

  The following additional information is provided to update the notes to the
Company's annual financial statements for developments during the three months
ended September 30, 1998:

  Effective July 1, 1998, the Company purchased all the outstanding stock of
Hewlett Computer Services, Inc. (HCS).  HCS was a privately owned company
engaged in the business of providing a variety of service bureau options to
community banks.  The total consideration paid to HCS s stockholders was
$2,250,000 in cash.  The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method
of accounting.

  During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company entered into
contracts with multiple banks to provide products and services through one of
its service bureaus.  Pursuant to an agreement, the Company pays the prior
service bureau provider an amount based on each customer s revenues.  Total
purchase price for customer contracts signed in the quarter was $2,611,000 in
cash.

  After the close of business on August 18, 1998, the Company entered a
definitive agreement to acquire Peerless Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:PLSS), through a
merger agreement expected to close in the fourth calendar quarter of 1998,
pending regulatory and PLSS shareholder approval.  PLSS is a publicly owned
company that installs and supports integrated information systems for community
banks and credit unions throughout the United States.  The price is
approximately $36 million, or $7.25 per PLSS share to be paid with Company
stock.  Peerless Group generated profits of $1.9 million on revenues of $30.1
million in calendar 1997.

4.  Income Per Share Information

  Earnings per common share are computed by dividing income by the weighted

outstanding for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

             Operations and Financial Condition


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Background and Overview

  Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. ("JHA" or the "Company"), is a leading provider
of integrated computer systems that perform data processing (available for in-
house or service bureau installations) for banks and related financial institu-
tions.  The Company was founded in 1976.  Its proprietary applications software,
which operates on IBM AS/400 computers, is offered under two systems:  CIF 1
20/20, typically for banks with less than $300 million in assets, and the 2
Silverlake System   , for banks with assets up to $10 billion.  Domestically,
JHA frequently sells hardware with its software products.  It also provides
customer support and related services.  The Company's software systems have been
installed at over 1560 banks and financial institutions.

The Company has established a Year 2000 (Y2K) Committee.  This Committee has
prepared a documented, systematic approach (the Y2K Plan) to review all products
and internal systems for Y2K compliance.  The Company s Board of Directors have
reviewed and approved the Plan as required by the banking regulators of all

service bureau providers.  The Company believes the products it currently sells
to be Y2K ready and that the majority, if not all, of its internal systems will
be Y2K ready by December 31, 1998.  The estimated cost of the above efforts is
not reasonably determinable at the current time and is not expected to be
material to the Company s financial condition.
  
A detailed discussion of the major components of the results of operations for
the quarter ended September 30, 1998, as compared to the same period in the
previous year follows.

Revenues

  Revenues increased 103% to $40,728,000 in the quarter ended September 30,
1998.  Software licensing and installation increased 90%.  Maintenance, support
and service revenues increased 36%.  Hardware sales increased 223% from last
year's quarter.  The Company's non-hardware products and services (higher margin
sales) increased 59% over last year.  The increases reflect continued growth and
demand for the Company s products and services.

  The backlog of sales at September 30, 1998 was $64,132,000.  This is up from
the June 30, 1998 level, and is consistent with management's expectations for
the first quarter.  Backlog at October 30, 1998 was $64,058,000.

Cost of Sales

  The 137% increase in cost of sales for the first quarter of FY '99 is
relatively consistent with the increase in revenues.  Cost of hardware increased
274% while cost of services increased 51%, both mirroring the related revenue.

Gross Profit

  Gross profit increased to $19,845,000 in the first quarter ended September 30,
1998, a 77% increase over last year.  The gross margin percentage was 49% of
sales compared to 56% last year due to hardware (lower margin sales)
representing 43% of total revenues compared to 27% last year.

Operating Expenses

  Total operating expenses increased 49%.  This is less than the gross profit
increase of 77%.  Selling expenses increased 62%, research & development
increased 42% and general & administrative expenses increased 36%.


Other Income and Expense

  Other income for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 reflects an increase
when compared to the same period last year due primarily to the level of cash
and cash equivalents invested being much higher this year than last.   

Net Income

  Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter was $8,274,000, or
$.41 earnings per share compared to $4,427,000, or $.23 earnings per share in
the same period last year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity

  The Company's cash and cash equivalents and investments increased to
$42,170,000 at September 30, 1998, from $26,523,000 at June 30, 1998.  This is
reflecting the seasonal influx of cash due to the receipt in the first quarter
of annual maintenance fees billed June 30, 1998. 

  JHA has an available credit line totaling $5,000,000, although the Company
expects its use to be minimal during FY '99.  The Company currently has no
short-term or long-term debt obligations.

Capital Requirements and Resources
 
  JHA generally uses existing resources and funds generated from operations to
meet its capital requirements.  Capital expenditures totaling $7,274,000 for the
quarter ended September 30, 1998, were made for expansion of facilities and
additional equipment.  These were funded from cash generated by operations.  The
consolidated capital expenditures of JHA could exceed $11,000,000 for FY '99.

  The Company paid a $.065 per share cash dividend on September 24, 1998 to
stockholders of record September 8, 1998 which was funded from working capital. 
In addition, the Company's Board of Directors, subsequent to September 30, 1998,
declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.065 per share on its common stock
payable December 10, 1998 to stockholders of record on November 19, 1998.  This
will be funded out of working capital.

CONCLUSION

  JHA's results of operations and its financial position continued to be quite
favorable during the quarter ended September 30, 1998.  This reflects the
continuing attitude of cooperation and commitment by each employee, management's
ongoing cost control efforts and commitment to deliver top quality products and
services to the markets it serves.
