PART I.      FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Item 1. Financial Statements.

The  financial statements set forth below for the three
month  periods  ended  July  31,  1997  and  1996   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 month period ended July 31,  1997
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, 1997).

Basis of Presentation

The   accompanying  condensed  consolidated   financial
statements include the accounts of INTERSOLV, Inc.  and
its   wholly  owned  subsidiaries  (collectively,   the
"Company" or "INTERSOLV").

The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect
all the adjustments that, in the opinion of management,
are  necessary for a fair presentation of  the  results
for the interim periods presented.  The results for the
three  month  period  ended  July  31,  1997  may   not
necessarily be indicative of the results for the entire
year.    The  April  30,  1997  condensed  consolidated
balance  sheet data was derived from audited  financial
statements as of the same date.

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,
1997.

Operations

The  Company  is engaged in the development,  marketing
and  support of computer software products and services
in  three  major  solution areas:   automated  software
quality, data connectivity and Year 2000 renewal.

Net Income(Loss) Per Share

      During  1997, the Financial Accounting  Standards
Board   issued   Statement  of   Financial   Accounting
Standards No. 128 - "Earnings per Share"  ("FAS  128").
FAS  128 is effective for periods ending after December
15,  1997.   The Company will implement this in  fiscal
1998, starting with the quarter ended January 31, 1998.
The impact is not expected to be material.

Revenues

The  Company's product and service offerings are  focused
in  three  primary  solution areas:   Automated  Software
Quality  (which includes the PVCS products  for  Software
Configuration  Management and QualityWorks  products  for
Automated  Software  Testing), Data  Connectivity  (which
includes  DataDirect  products for data  middleware)  and
Year  2000 renewal.  Total revenues for the three  months
ended  July  31,  1997 increased 26%  to  $41.3  million,
compared to $32.7 million for the same period last  year.
Revenues from the three core solution areas totaled $36.4
million,  which  is a 43% increase from the  same  period
last year.

PVCS revenues grew 30%,while DataDirect revenues grew  5%
for  the three months ended July 31, 1997.  Revenue  from
Year 2000 renewal services, which was negligible for  the
first  quarter last year, grew to $5.7 million.  Revenues
for the other non-strategic products, which accounted for
12%  of  total  revenues for the quarter ended  July  31,
1997,  declined  35%.  Growth in the PVCS and  DataDirect
product  lines was due to increases in new license  sales
and  increased demand for services.  Growth in  the  Year
2000  renewal area was due to increased demand  for  such
services in the most recent period.

On  a  geographical basis, the Company had revenue growth
in  both  North  America and Europe,  while  Asia/Pacific
experienced  a  decline.   Changes  in  foreign  currency
exchange rates between periods caused total international
revenues  to decrease approximately $0.7 million  between
periods,  with  a  significant portion of  this  decrease
attributable to Japan.

Cost of Products

Cost   of  products  includes  cost  of  software  media,
freight,   royalties  and  amortization  of   capitalized
software   development  costs  and  purchased  technology
costs,   with  amortization  expense  being  the  largest
component.   Cost of products for the three months  ended
July  31,  1997 decreased 69% from $4.3 million  for  the
same  period  last year to $1.3 million.  In  the  fourth
quarter   of   fiscal  1997,  the  Company   wrote   down
approximately $19.1 million of capitalized and  purchased
software.    As   a   result,  the  level   of   software
amortization dropped significantly in this quarter  ended
July  31,  1997,  when compared to the same  period  last
year.

Cost of Services

Cost  of services includes personnel and related indirect
costs   incurred  to  provide  consulting  and   training
services, as well as telephone support to customers under
maintenance  contracts.  Cost of services  increased  75%
from  $7.1  million for the three months ended  July  31,
1996 to $12.5 million for the three months ended July 31,
1997.   Costs  have increased to support the  demand  for
Year 2000 renewal services as well as consulting services
for  the  other  products.   The  cost  increases  relate
primarily  to growth in personnel needed to  perform  the
services.

Sales and Marketing

Sales  and marketing expenses for the three months  ended
July  31, 1997 increased 10% from $15.6 million  for  the
same  period  last  year to $17.1 million.   The  Company
increased  its investments in field sales, telesales  and
third  party  selling channels, as well as expanding  its
marketing capabilities during the three months ended July
31, 1997.

Research and Development

Research  and  development ("R &  D")  expenses  includes
personnel and related overhead costs incurred to  develop
the  Company's  products,  less  amounts  capitalized  in
accordance  with  FASB 86.  Amortization  of  capitalized
software is included in cost of products.  R & D expenses
were  $6.6  million in the first quarter ended  July  31,
1997, which is more than double last year's level of $3.1
million.   The increase in R&D expenses is the result  of
lower capitalization of software costs, as fewer products
met  the  Company's capitalization policy in the  quarter
ended July 31, 1997.
                          Page 9



General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $2.8 million  in
the  first quarter of fiscal 1998, which is a 3% increase
as compared to $2.7 million in the same period last year.

Operating Income

The  Company reported operating income of $1 million  for
the  three months ended July 31, 1997, as compared to  an
operating loss of $83 thousand for the three months ended
July 31, 1996.

Other Income, net

Other  income, which is primarily net  investment income,
decreased when compared to the same period last  year  as
cash available to invest decreased .

Income Taxes

The  Company's tax rate for the three months  ended  July
31, 1997 was 35%, based upon the Company's assessment  of
the  realizability of existing deferred tax assets, which
include tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards.

Financial Condition - Liquidity and Capital Resources

During  the  three months ended July 31, 1997, operations
used  $10  million of cash, primarily to paydown  various
current  liabilities, which normally increase at the  end
of  a  fiscal  year due to the Company's  commission  and
bonus  plans.  Financing activities provided a  net  $5.5
million, with $1.8 million derived from the sale of stock
through   stock  option  exercises  and  employee   stock
purchase programs and $3.7 million of net borrowings from
existing  credit  facilities.  Investing activities  used
$1.1  million as the Company invested a net $1.1  million
in  fixed assets.  Overall cash and cash equivalents were
$14.6  million  at  July 31, 1997,  which  is  down  $5.6
million from $20.2 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 $15 million.  As of
July  31,  1997, $9.5 million was 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.
