Acquisition of Vertex, Inc. - December 12, 1997:   Vertex, acquired for $3
million in cash and JKHY stock, is a leading vendor of teller systems to
community banks, primarily in the southeastern United States.  Systems are
AS/400 based and are already integrated with JKHY core application systems.

with the current period.


4.  Income Per Share Information

  Earnings per common share are computed by dividing income by the basic and
diluted (as required by FASB #128) weighted average number of shares of common
stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the quarter and six
month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.

Item 2. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of 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 computers, is offered under two systems:  CIF 20/20   ,
typically for banks with less than $300 million in assets, and the 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 1480 banks and financial institutions.

Year 2000

  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 financials.

  A detailed discussion of the major components of the results of operations for
the quarter and the six months ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the same
periods in the previous year follows.  

Revenues

  Revenues increased 28% to $27,384,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 1997. 
The Company's non-hardware products and services (higher margin sales) increased
30% over last year.

  Six month revenues this year were $47,443,000, up 20% over the last year's
corresponding period.  Software licensing and installation increased 17%. 
Maintenance, support and service revenues increased 32%.  Hardware sales were up
10% over last year's quarter.

  The backlog of sales at December 31, 1997, was $40,294,000.  Backlog at
January 31, 1998 was $40,540,000.



Cost of Sales

  The 23% increase in cost of sales for the second quarter of FY '98 is
relatively consistent with the increase in revenues.  A portion of the increase
results from the increase in hardware revenues and the related increase in cost
of hardware sales.   Cost of services increased 32% primarily due to growth and
future growth expected in the Company's core business, slightly more than the
30% increase in non-hardware revenues.

  Cost of sales increased 16% for the first six months of fiscal '98, relatively
consistent with the 20% increase in revenues.  Cost of hardware increased 1%,

less than the 10% increase in hardware revenue.  The most significant factor
contributing to this variation related to a large one-time sale of hardware last
year on which the Company had a low profit margin.  Cost of services increased
33% compared to a 25% increase in non-hardware revenues for same reasons as the
second quarter.

Gross Profit

  Gross profit increased to $13,641,000 in the second quarter ended December 31,
1997, a 34% increase over last year.  The gross margin percentage was 50% of
sales compared to 48% last year.

The six month gross profit this year was up 23% at $24,882,000.  The gross
margin percentage for the first six months was 52%, similar to last year's rate
of 51%.

Operating Expenses

  Total operating expenses increased 36% in the quarter compared to last year s
period.  This is slightly more than the gross profit increased of 34%.  Selling
expenses increased 41% while research and development expenses increased 17%. 
General and administrative expenses increased by 38%.

  The $10,549,000 in the first six months of fiscal '98 for operating expenses
was a 25% increase.  This is relatively consistent with the 23% increase in
gross profits.

Other Income and Expense

  Other income for the quarter ended December 31, 1997, was up 54% when compared
to the same period last year.  This results primarily from increased interest
income because the Company had more cash invested during the period.  The year-
to-date 54% increase is due to the same reasons.

Net Income

  Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter was $5,073,000,
or $.26 per share, an increase of 30%, compared to $3,778,000, or $.20 per share
in the same period last year.

  Net income from continuing operations for the six months ended December 31,
1997 was $9,500,000, or $.49 per share (up 23%), compared to $7,581,000, or $.40
per share.

  The per share data are the diluted amounts required by FASB 128.  Appropriate
share and per share data have been revised to be consistent with the current
year presentation.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity

  The Company's cash and cash equivalents and investments increased to
$24,216,000 at December 31, 1997, up from $13,867,000 at June 30, 1997.

  JHA has available credit lines totaling $4,000,000, although the Company
expects their use to be minimal during FY '98.  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 $2,705,000 for the
six months ended December 31, 1997, were made for expansion of its facilities
and additional equipment.  These were funded from cash generated by operations
The consolidated capital expenditures of JHA could exceed $6,000,000 for FY '98.

  The Company paid a $.055 per share cash dividend on December 9, 1997 to
stockholders of record November 18, 1997 which was funded from working capital.
In addition, the Company's Board of Directors, subsequent to December 31, 1997,
declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.065 per share on its common stock
payable March 12, 1998 to stockholders of record on February 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 December 31, 1997.  This reflects the
continuing attitude of cooperation and commitment by each employee, management's
ongoing cost control efforts and the Company s commitment to deliver top quality
products and services to the markets it serves.
