PART I.      FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Item 1. Financial Statements.

The  financial statements set forth below for the three
and  nine month periods ended January 31, 1996 and 1995
are  unaudited, and have been prepared pursuant to  the
rules  and  regulations of the Securities and  Exchange
Commission.   Certain information and note  disclosures
normally   included  in  annual  financial   statements
prepared   in   accordance  with   generally   accepted
accounting  principles have been condensed  or  omitted
pursuant  to  those  rules and regulations.  INTERSOLV,
Inc. believes that the disclosures made are adequate to
make  the  information presented not  misleading.   The
results  for  the  three and nine month  periods  ended
January 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of  the
results for the fiscal year.

In   the   opinion  of  management,  the   accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
necessary   adjustments  (consisting  only  of   normal
recurring  adjustments) that are necessary for  a  fair
presentation of results for the periods presented.   It
is suggested that these financial statements be read in
conjunction   with  the  latest  audited   consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto (included in
the  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for  the  fiscal  year
ended April 30, 1995).

more  fully  described on page 9 under  "Acquisitions".
The  results for the three and nine month periods ended
January  31,  1995 were also restated  to  include  the
results  of  operations of PC Strategies  &  Solutions,
Inc., and TechGnosis International, Inc.

These   financial   statements  should   be   read   in
conjunction with the Company's annual audited financial
statements,  as filed with the Securities and  Exchange
Commission on Form 10-K, for the year ended  April  30,
1995.

Operations

The  Company  develops, markets and  supports  computer
software used by software developers to accelerate  the
development  and  maintenance process, improve  quality
and reduce cost.

Contracting Costs (Discontinued Operations)

Prior  to April 1986, certain revenues associated  with
discontinued operations were generated under cost-plus-
fee  contracts with the U.S. government and are subject
to adjustments upon audit by the Defense Contract Audit
Agency  (DCAA).  Audits through January 31,  1986  have
been  completed.   On  December 5,  1990,  the  Company
received  a  notice  from the DCAA questioning  certain
charges aggregating approximately $2.4 million incurred
by  the  Company  during fiscal  1985  and  1986.   The
Company filed a response in April, 1991, which provided
additional information regarding the issues  raised  in
the  notice.   The  amount of the  liability,  if  any,
cannot be ascertained.

Sales and Income Tax

The  Company  sells  its  products  in  various  states
through   different  distribution  channels,  including
telesales,  field sales and third party resellers.   On
certain sales, the Company must collect and remit sales
tax  to  the respective state.  These sales  taxes  are
subject  to  adjustment upon audit  by  the  respective
state.   Liabilities  may  result  from  this  process;
however, management believes the reserves provided  for
these liabilities are sufficient.

The  Company's income tax returns are subject to  audit
by   Federal,   state  and  foreign  tax   authorities.
Adjustments to increase or decrease taxable  income  or
losses   may  result  from  these  audits.   Management
believes the impact of these adjustments, if any, would
not  have  a material impact on the Company's financial
statements taken as a whole.
Capitalization  of Computer Software Development  Costs
and Purchased Software

In  accordance  with Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software    to   be   Sold,   Leased,   or    Otherwise
Marketed,"("FAS  86") the Company  capitalizes  certain
internal software development costs subsequent  to  the
establishment  of  technological  feasibility  for  the
product  as evidenced by a working model.  In addition,
the Company supplements its internal development effort
by  acquiring  rights to selected software technologies
("purchased   software")  from   others.    Capitalized
software costs and purchased software are amortized  on
a straight line basis over the estimated economic lives
of the products, which range from three to five years.

The   Company   continually  compares  the  unamortized
software development costs and purchased software costs
in  light  of  the expected future revenues  for  those
products.  If the unamortized costs exceed the expected
future  net  value  from sales of the related  product,
then the excess amount is written off.

Acquisitions

In   October  1995,  INTERSOLV  acquired  all  of   the
outstanding  common and preferred stock  of  TechGnosis
International,  Inc.  ("TechGnosis")  for  2.5  million
shares  of  INTERSOLV common stock and $4.8 million  in
cash.  In addition, INTERSOLV also assumed $3.9 million
of  TechGnosis' obligations under its 8.4% Subordinated
Convertible Notes ("Notes") due in 1999.  The notes are
convertible  into 1,020,756 shares of INTERSOLV  common
stock.    Total   value   of   the   transaction    was
approximately  $80  million.   TechGnosis,   which   is
headquartered in Belgium, provides cross-platform  data
access technology for client/server environments.   The
transaction  was  accounted for using the  "pooling-of-
interests"  method; accordingly  INTERSOLV's historical
financial statements have been restated to include  the
results of operations of TechGnosis.

In May 1995, INTERSOLV acquired all of the outstanding
common stock of PC Strategies & Solutions, Inc. ("PCS")
for 675,000 shares of INTERSOLV common stock (valued at
$9.3 million).  PCS provides consulting and training
services focusing on the implementation of object-
oriented client/server technology.  The transaction was
accounted for using the "pooling-of-interests" method,
accordingly INTERSOLV's historical financial statements
have been restated to include the financial position and
results of operations of PCS.

In May 1995, INTERSOLV acquired the C++/Views product
line from Liant Software for $1.2 million.  The
transaction value was allocated to existing software
products that had reached technological feasibility
("capitalized software") and to in-process software
development ("purchased research and development") based
on their respective fair market values.  This resulted in
$0.7 million of the transaction value being allocated to
purchased research and development, which was charged to
operations in the first quarter of fiscal 1996.


Acquisition Charges

In October 1995, the Company incurred $11.6 million of
non-recurring charges related to the acquisition of
TechGnosis.  This includes $3.3 million to restructure
distributor agreements, $2.5 million for consolidation of
offices and equipment, $2.2 million for severance and
related costs, $2 million to write-off overlapping
technologies and $1.6 million of direct transaction and
other transition expenses.  All personnel affected by the
acquisition have been notified and most severance and
transaction costs have been disbursed as of January 31,
1996.  The majority of the other acquisition charges are
expected to be disbursed by April 1996.

In May 1995, the Company incurred $2 million of non-
recurring charges related to the acquisition of  PCS and
the C++/Views product line.  Acquisition charges included
a $0.7 million charge for purchased research and
development related to the C++/Views transaction.  The
remaining $1.3 million charge was for direct transaction
expenses, severance and costs to consolidate operations.
All personnel affected by the acquisitions have been
notified and the severance and transaction expenses were
disbursed by January 31, 1996.

      FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The   following  table  sets  forth,  for   the   periods
indicated,  the percentage which selected  items  in  the
Consolidated  Statements  of  Operations  bear  to  total
revenues:

Revenues from North America and International were  67%
and 33%, respectively, for the three months ended January
31, 1996 as compared to 68% and 32%, respectively for the
same period last year..  Revenues from North America and
International were 66% and 34%,  respectively, for the
nine months ended January 31, 1996 as compared to 68% and
32%, respectively, for the nine months ended January 31,
1995.

The above results for the three and nine months ended
January 31, 1995 have been restated to include the
results of acquired companies accounted for using the
"pooling-of-interests" method, including the May 1995
acquisition of PCS and the October 1995 acquisition of
TechGnosis.Revenues

Revenues  for  the  three months ended January  31,  1996
increased 10% from $35.3 million for the same period last
year  to  $38.9  million.  Revenues for the  nine  months
ended  January 31, 1996 increased 12% from $94.2  million
to $105.3 million.  Revenues from the Company's family of
newer  client/server product solutions,  focused  in  the
areas of  Software Configuration Management ("SCM"), Data
Warehousing and Object Oriented Development, grew 33% and
27% for the three and nine months ended January 31, 1996,
respectively.  Growth in new license sales  and  services
for the SCM and Data Warehousing areas led to the overall
growth  in  the  newer client/server  products.   Revenue
growth  in these product groups more than offset the  26%
and  15%  revenue decline for the three and  nine  months
ended  January  31, 1996, respectively, in  the  area  of
Enterprise  Client/Server Development. This  decline  was
due  largely  to a decrease in new license sales  and  is
consistent with the shift in the market that the  Company
has  experienced in the past year as the demand for COBOL
based software solutions has declined. Approximately  26%
and  28% of the Company's revenues for the three and nine
months  ended January 31, 1996, respectively,  were  from
the area of Enterprise Client/Server Development.

Cost of Products

Cost   of  products  includes  cost  of  software  media,
freight,   royalties  and  amortization  of   capitalized
software   development  costs  and  purchased  technology
costs.   Cost  of  products for the  three  months  ended
January 31, 1996 increased 29% from $2.8 million for  the
same  period last year to $3.6 million.  Cost of products
for  the nine months ended January 31, 1996 increased 45%
from  $7.9  million to $11.5 million.   The  increase  is
primarily  due to higher levels of software  amortization
related  to  releases of new products or new versions  of
existing products in the current fiscal year.

Cost of Services

Cost  of services includes personnel and related overhead
costs   incurred  to  provide  consulting  and   training
services, as well as telephone support to customers under
maintenance  contracts.  Cost of services  increased  17%
from $5.8 million for the three months ended January  31,
1995  to  $6.8 million for the three months ended January
31,  1996.   Cost of services for the nine  months  ended
January  31,  1996 increased  22% from $15.5  million  to
$18.9  million.  Increases in the number of personnel  in
the  Company's consulting functions, which are needed  to
support  the increasing consulting service revenues,  led
to  the increased costs for both the three and nine month
periods ended January 31, 1996.

Sales and Marketing

Sales  and marketing expenses for the three months  ended
January 31, 1996 increased 7% from $14.5 million for  the
same  period  last  year  to $15.5  million.   Sales  and
marketing expenses for the nine months ended January  31,
1996  increased 13% from $40.9 million to $46.4  million.
The  Company has been investing in telesales, third party
distribution channels and marketing programs  to  support
the increasing revenue streams. In addition, prior to its
acquisition  in  October  1995,  TechGnosis  was   making
significant  investment in sales and marketing  costs  to
help  broaden its revenue base.  These factors  were  the
primary  reasons for the increase during  the  three  and
nine months ended January 31, 1996.

Research and Development

Research and development ("R & D") expenses reflect gross
expenditures less amounts capitalized in accordance  with
FAS 86.  Amortization of capitalized software is included
in cost of products.  R & D expenses were $3.6 million in
the  third  quarter ended January 31, 1996, which  is  4%
higher  than  last  year's level of  $3.5  million.   R&D
expenses  for  the  nine months ended  January  31,  1996
increased  9%  from $10.2 million to $11.1 million.   The
increase is the result of higher levels of investment  in
the   Company's   Object   Oriented   Development,   Data
Warehousing   and   Software   Configuration   Management
solution areas.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $2.9 million  in
the third quarter of fiscal 1996, which is a 22% decrease
as compared to $3.7 million in the same period last year.
General  and administrative expenses for the nine  months
ended January 31, 1996 decreased 2% from $9.6 million  to
$9.4  million.   The  decrease  is  due  largely  to  the
elimination   of   redundant  TechGnosis   administrative
functions subsequent to the October 1995 acquisition.

Acquisition Charges

In  October  1995, the Company incurred $11.6 million  of
non-recurring  charges  related  to  the  acquisition  of
TechGnosis.   This includes $3.3 million  to  restructure
distributor  arrangements, $2.5 million for consolidation
of  offices and equipment, $2.2 million for severance and
related   costs,  $2  million  to  write-off  overlapping
technologies  and $1.6 million of direct transaction  and
other transition expenses.  All personnel affected by the
acquisition  have  been notified and most  severance  and
transaction  costs  were disbursed by January  31,  1996.
The majority of the remaining charges are expected to  be
disbursed by April 30, 1996.

In  May  1995,  the Company incurred $2 million  of  non-
recurring  charges related to the acquisition of  the  PC
Strategies  business  and  the  C++/Views  product  line.
Acquisition  charges included a $0.7 million  charge  for
purchased R&D related to the C++/Views transaction.   The
remaining  $1.3 million charge was for direct transaction
expenses,  severance and costs to consolidate operations.
All  personnel  affected  by the acquisitions  have  been
notified and the severance and transaction expenses  were
disbursed by January 31, 1996.



Operating Income

Operating  income  before acquisition  charges  was  $6.4
million  for the three months ended January 31, 1996,  or
up   30%   from  last  year.   Operating  income   before
acquisition charges for the nine months ended January 31,
1996  was $8 million or down 21% for the same period last
year.   Prior  to its acquisition,  TechGnosis  had  been
investing  in  sales and marketing costs  to  expand  its
market  presence in the United States.  As a  result,  it
reported  operating losses through the six  months  ended
October  31,  1995.   When combined  with  the  Company's
results, this led to a decrease in the Company's  results
for  the  nine months ended January 31, 1996.   Operating
loss  after acquisition charges was $5.6 million for  the
nine   months  ended  January  31,  1996  compared   with
operating  income of $10.2 million for  the  same  period
last year.

Other Income, net

Other  income  increased due to  higher  levels  of  cash
available  for  investment, when  compared  to  the  same
period last year.

Income Taxes

The Company's tax rate for the three months ended January
31,  1996  was 30% as the Company has not recognized  the
full benefit of the available net operating losses as  of
January  31,  1996.  This is also the reason the  Company
has  recorded  a tax provision for the nine months  ended
January  31, 1996. The Company expects that the tax  rate
for  the remainder of fiscal 1996 will be 30%.  The other
difference  from  the statutory rate is  because  of  the
estimated  tax benefit resulting from the utilization  of
research and development tax credit carryforwards.
Financial Condition - Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the nine months ended January 31, 1996, operations
provided  $9.1 million of cash.  Financing activities  in
the  form  of stock option exercises and purchases  under
the  employee purchase plan generated $8.3 million.   The
Company  made  $8.5 million of payments  related  to  its
acquisitions,   including   the   final   Q+E    Software
installment  payment of $1.1 million, and disbursed  $4.8
million  in connection with the acquisition of TechGnosis
stock   and   $2.6   million  for   acquisition   related
restructuring charges.  Investing activities  used  $19.6
million  as the Company invested $8.9 million in software
and a net $5.6 million in fixed assets.  Overall cash and
cash  equivalents were $22.3 million at January 31, 1996,
which  is  down  $4.3 million from $26.7 million  at  the
beginning of the fiscal year.

The  Company has a bank line of credit arrangement  which
allows short-term borrowings of up to $12 million.  As of
January  31,  1996  and for the nine months  then  ended,
there  were  no amounts outstanding under  this  line  of
credit.   Management  believes that cash  generated  from
operations,  cash  on hand and available  borrowings  are
sufficient to meet the Company's capital requirements for
the foreseeable future.
