NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1997
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the nine-month period ended March 31, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending June 30, 1997. The
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1996.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
Mortgage interest rates available for the last several quarters have reflected a
lending environment with a high degree of volatility. During the most recent
quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company issued a press release stating that
"management believes that a heightened degree of uncertainty in the interest
rate environment is prompting many lenders to approach capital expenditures with
caution. As a result, our expectation is that we will see lower-than-expected
sales for the quarter ending March 31 and earnings expectations for the quarter
now appear fairly aggressive." If lenders change this perceived view of
uncertainty surrounding interest rates, and if the overall lending conditions
are then viewed as favorable, the Company believes mortgage lenders will then be
more inclined to improve their loan management systems and capacity through the
purchase of the Company's products and services.
The Company has announced and released several new products during fiscal year
1997. These new products are MortgageWare Loan Servicing and Loan Servicing
Gateway, BuilderBLOCK$ and MortgageWare InfoLINQ. Although the Company has not
achieved rapid market penetration with these new products, initial response from
customers and prospects for these new products has been favorable.
NET REVENUES
<TABLE>

Three months ended March 31,
(In thousands) 1997 1996 Change
- -------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Software license fees $1,718 $1,670 3%
Software support fees 1,496 1,426 5%
Other 319 248 29%
- -------------------------------------------------------
Total net revenues $3,534 $3,345 6%
- -------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>
Net revenues consist of software license fees, software support fees and
other revenues, which include training fees, custom document fees, interest
income on contracts receivable and other miscellaneous sales, net of discounts
and sales returns.
Software license fees increased by 3% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996. This period-to-period increase was
primarily due to a combination of software license fees for new products
released in fiscal year 1997 (discussed above) more than offsetting a modest
decline in software license fees for the Company's flagship product
MortgageWare. The overall level of software license fees was negatively effected
by the interest rate environment as discussed above.
Software support fees increased by 5% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996. This period-to-period increase was
primarily due to a combination of a modest increase in customer
7
<PAGE> 8
growth and a low rate of attrition in the Company's customer base. Due in part
to changes, from time to time, in government regulations applicable to
documentation required for residential mortgage lending, the vast majority of
the Company's customers purchase annual software support agreements. However,
because software support fees are recognized ratably over the term of the annual
support agreement, whereas software license fees are recognized on product
shipment, the percentage increase in software support fees compared to software
license fees is not directly proportional. Nevertheless, the Company believes
software support fees are likely to increase modestly during fiscal year 1997
due to the increase in software license fees experienced over the last several
quarters.
Training fees, custom document fees and other miscellaneous sales increased
by 29% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the quarter ended March
31, 1996. This period-to-period increase resulted from an increase in training
and consultation fees. The increase in these fees was due to a combination of
increased demand for these services and an increase, beginning in the quarter
ended September 30, 1996, in the daily fee charged for on-site training. The
Company expects its training fees to increase modestly during fiscal year 1997
compared to fiscal year 1996, due to a combination of increased demand driven by
new products and, the increase in the daily fee charged for on-site training.

Cost of software license fees includes the purchase and duplication of disks,
product documentation, license fees under the Tuttle & Co. marketing agreement
for Loan Officer Plus for Windows, and amortization of capitalized software
development costs. As a percentage of software license fees, cost of software
license fees decreased from 23% to 21% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996. This decrease was primarily due to
software license fees increasing while the cost of software license fees
decreased slightly due to a modest decrease in amortization of capitalized
software development costs. Amortization of capitalized software development
costs decreased modestly to $313,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to $354,000 for the same quarter in the previous year. The Company
expects the dollar amount of its amortization of capitalized software
development costs to hold steady or decrease slightly for the remainder of
fiscal year 1997.

<PAGE> 9
Cost of software support fees includes salaries and other costs related to
providing telephone support, and the purchase, duplication and shipping of disks
associated with software updates. As a percentage of software support fees, cost
of software support fees increased from 27% to 32% for the quarter ended March
31, 1997 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996. This increase was
primarily due to the costs associated with a major software update during the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1996, which
did not have a major software update. Looking forward, because the level of
staffing and customer service expenses are related to the size of the Company's
customer base and the number of different products offered and updated, the
Company expects the dollar cost of software support fees to increase in
accordance with its customer base and expanded product offering, and to remain
flat or increase slightly as a percentage of software support fees.
Cost of other revenue includes the purchase and duplication of disks
associated with custom documents, the salaries and reimbursable expenses for the
customer service department employees who provide training services and the net
cost of the Company's annual MortgageWare software users' group meeting. As a
percentage of other revenue, cost of other revenue increased from 49% to 55% for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period the previous year.
This increase was primarily due to an increase in staff and related expenses for
the Training Group in response to the increased demand for training services
discussed above.

Product development expenses include salaries for software developers and
analysts, facilities costs and expenses associated with computer equipment used
in software development. Product development expenses increased by 19%, from
$464,000 to $552,000, for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 1996. Product development expenses as a percentage of
net revenues, increased from 14% to 16% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to the same period in 1996. The dollar and as a percentage of revenues
increase, was primarily due to increased staffing associated with new products
released during fiscal year 1997. The Company capitalized $278,000 and $194,000
of development expenditures for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
respectively. The Company released two new products, MortgageWare Loan Servicing
and BuilderBlock$ during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. Additionally, the
Company released MortgageWare InfoLINQ during the quarter ended March 31, 1997
and
9
<PAGE> 10
plans to release MortgageWare MarketLINQ during the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 1997. Accordingly, the Company anticipates an increase in both capitalized
development expenditures and product development expense for the remainder of
fiscal year 1997.
Sales and marketing expenses include salaries, sales commissions, as well as
travel and facility costs for the Company's sales and marketing personnel. Sales
and marketing expenses also includes advertising and trade shows. As a
percentage of net revenues, sales and marketing expenses decreased from 33% to
31% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period in the
previous year. This decrease is primarily due to lower salary and commission
expenses that were somewhat offset by increased promotional expenses and market
research.
General and administrative expenses include costs related to finance,
purchasing, order fulfillment, administration and facilities costs. As a
percentage of net revenues, general and administrative expenses increased from
21% to 22% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period the
previous year. This increase is primarily due to a combination of a modest
increase in staffing and higher non-recurring maintenance expenses. As a
percentage of net revenues, the Company expects general and administrative
expenses to hold steady or decrease slightly for the remainder of fiscal year
1997.

Interest income was $172,000 and $192,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1997
and 1996 respectively. The decrease in interest income was due to a slightly
lower investment portfolio balance.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had no interest-bearing debt outstanding,
and anticipates no new debt financing in the foreseeable future. Accordingly,
the Company expects net interest and other income for the foreseeable future to
reflect net interest income.

payable or receivable, and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital, which consists principally of cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments was $11,265,000 as of March 31, 1997, compared to
$14,218,000 at June 30, 1996. Cash and cash equivalents increased by
10
<PAGE> 11
$2,454,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. Additions to cash and cash
equivalents included $3,346,000 provided by operating activities. Additionally,
$3,021,000 was provided by the sales and maturities of short-term investments.
Principal uses of cash and cash equivalents included $2,561,000 for the
repurchase of common stock, $681,000 of capitalized software costs, and the
purchase of $444,000 of property and equipment.
Although the Company at March 31, 1997 has no material commitment for
additional capital expenditures, it expects to spend approximately $600,000 for
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997, primarily for computer software and
equipment.
Long-term cash requirements, other than normal operating expenses, are
anticipated for development of new software products and enhancement of existing
products; financing anticipated growth; and the possible acquisition of other
software products, technologies and businesses and, the possible repurchase of
the Company's common stock. The Company believes that its existing cash, cash
equivalents, short-term investments, and cash generated by operations will be
sufficient to satisfy its currently anticipated cash requirements for fiscal
year 1997.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this discussion, the words "believes," "anticipates," and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly
release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may
be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect
the occurrence of unanticipated events.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share (Statement 128).
This statement establishes standards for the computation, presentation, and
disclosure of earnings per share (EPS), replacing the presentation of currently
required Primary EPS with a presentation of Basic EPS. It also requires dual
presentation of Basic EPS and Diluted EPS on the face of the income statement
for entities with complex capital structures. Basic EPS, unlike Primary EPS,
excludes all dilution while Diluted EPS, like the current Fully diluted EPS,
reflects the potential dilution that could occur from the exercise or conversion
of securities into common stock or from other contracts to issue common stock.
Statement 128 is effective for financial statements for periods ending after
December 31, 1997, including interim periods, and earlier application is not
permitted. When adopted, the Company will be required to restate its EPS data
for all prior periods presented. The Company does not expect the impact of the
adoption of this
11
<PAGE> 12
statement to be material to previously reported EPS amounts.
