using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent
shares outstanding during the periods.
3. ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences
between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating and tax
credit carryforwards. Significant components of the Company's net deferred tax
(liability) asset as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 are as follows:

5. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company declared a 3-for-2 common stock split to shareholders of record as
of April 16, 1999, payable on April 30, 1999. No effect has been given to this
action in the accompanying financial statements.
Total comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998
was $57.4 million and $27.2 million, respectively. The increase in comprehensive
income during the quarter ended March 31, 1999 is primarily due to unrealized
gains on investments since December 31, 1998. The Company owns 1,702,465 shares
of common stock of Knight/Trimark Group, Inc. and 900,000 shares of common stock
of The BISYS Group, Inc. Common stock of both companies trade on the NASDAQ
National Market System. The Company has valued its investment in Knight/Trimark
Group, Inc. at a discount from market value as a result of sale restrictions.
6. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company is a leading independent provider of financial data processing
systems and related information management services and products to financial
institutions and other financial intermediaries. The Company's operations have
been classified into three business segments: financial institution data

========================================
</TABLE>
REVENUES
Revenues increased 23.1% from $273.8 million in the first quarter of 1998 to
$337.1 million in the current first quarter. Approximately 45% of this growth
resulted from the inclusion of revenues from the date of purchase of acquired
companies and approximately 55% from increases in revenue from the addition of
new clients, growth in the transaction volume experienced by existing clients
and price increases.
COST OF REVENUES
Cost of revenues increased 23.2% from $224.4 million in the first quarter of
1998 to $276.5 million in the current first quarter. The make up of cost of
revenues has been affected by changes in the mix of the Company's business as
sales of software and related support activities have enjoyed an increasing
percentage of total revenues. In addition, amortization of internally generated
computer software increased as a percentage of revenues due to the write down of
certain ancillary software products to net realizable value.
OPERATING INCOME
Operating income increased 22.8% from $49.4 million in the first quarter of 1998
to $60.6 million in the current first quarter.
INCOME TAX PROVISION
Income taxes were computed at 41% in both 1999 and 1998, which rate is expected
to apply throughout the current year.
NET INCOME
Net income grew 23.1% from $27.2 million in the first quarter of 1998 to $33.4
million in the current first quarter. Net income per share-diluted increased
$.06 from $0.33 in the first quarter of 1998 to $0.39 in the current first
quarter. The increase in net income per share-diluted over 1998 was consistent
with management expectations and historical growth rates.

YEAR 2000 SYSTEMS EVALUATION
The Company provides data processing and other related services to financial
institutions of all kinds. The Company has substantially completed the Year 2000
renovation, testing and implementation of its mission critical proprietary
systems used in providing service to its clients. Testing and implementation of
the remaining non-mission critical systems, which are not material to the
Company's business, are expected to be completed by mid-1999.
The Company has received Year 2000 disclosures prepared by its principal vendors
indicating that they will be Year 2000 compliant in all material respects. The
Company's contingency plans include actions required should any vendor
experience Year 2000-related problems. In addition, the Company has no reason to
believe that its clients will not be Year 2000 compliant in all material
respects, and in many cases has assisted its clients in their Year 2000 efforts.
The Company believes that it has and will continue to meet its Year 2000
compliance commitments using existing resources, without incurring significant
incremental expenses. Although the Company does not maintain accounting records
that separately identify all of the costs associated with its Year 2000
activities, it has estimated that commencing with 1996 such costs have
approximated $15 million a year. Estimated cost for the year 1999 when the
entire project is scheduled for completion is approximately $10 to $12 million.
The disclosure set forth above contains forward-looking statements.
Specifically, such statements are contained in sentences including the words
"will" or "expect" or "anticipate" or "could" or "should". Such forward-looking
statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may cause actual
results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking
statements. The factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include the failure by
third parties to adequately remediate Year 2000 issues and the inability of the
Company to test and implement remaining non-mission critical systems. Failure by
the Company in making its proprietary systems Year 2000 compliant would have a
material adverse effect on its business. However, the Company expects that its
Year 2000 compliance efforts will be successful without any material adverse
effects on its business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following table summarizes the Company's primary sources of funds for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998:
<TABLE>

Increase (decrease) in net borrowings 66,460 50,245
----------------------------------------
TOTAL $49,542 $94,804
----------------------------------------
</TABLE>
Long-term obligations amounted to $355.1 million at March 31, 1999. The majority
of this debt comprises $106.1 million of senior notes due 1999 to 2005 and
$184.7 million advanced under a $330.0 million unsecured line of credit and
commercial paper facility which is reduced to $150.0 million on May 17, 1999 and
expires on May 17, 2000. A facility fee of .1% to .2% per annum is payable on
the $330.0 million committed amount. The Company plans to refinance the entire
facility on or before May 17, 1999.
The Company has historically applied a significant portion of its cash flow from
operating activities and long-term borrowings to acquisitions. The Company
believes that its cash flow from operating activities together with other
available sources of funds will be adequate to meet its funding requirements.
However, in the event that the Company makes significant future acquisitions, it
may raise funds through additional borrowings or issuance of securities.
