NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Preparation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all
of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles. The statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
Form 10-K, Commission File No. 0-15578 that was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 7, 2000. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying consolidated financial statements include all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the
Company's financial position and results of operations. The results of
operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 may not
be indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.
2. Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
3. Revenue Recognition
The Company generates software revenue from licensing the rights to use its
software products. The Company also generates service revenues from the sale of
product maintenance contracts, installation services and consulting services.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2,
Software Revenue Recognition. Revenue from software license fees are generally
recognized upon shipment, net of estimated returns, provided that there are no
significant post shipment obligations, payment is due within one year and
collection is probable. If acceptance is required beyond the Company's standard
published specifications, software license revenue is recognized upon customer
acceptance.
SOP No. 97-2 generally requires revenue earned on software arrangements
involving multiple elements to be allocated to each element based on the
relative fair values of the elements. The fair value of an element must be based
on evidence that is specific to the vendor. If a vendor does not have evidence
of the fair value for all the elements in a multiple-element arrangement, all
revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such evidence exists or until all
elements are delivered.
Revenues for consulting services are recognized over the period in which
services are provided and the revenue is fixed and determinable and collection
is probable. Maintenance

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
revenue is deferred at the time of software license shipment and is recognized
ratably over the term of the support period, which is typically one year.
On December 3, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements
(SAB 101). SAB 101 was initially to become effective for calendar year end
companies for the quarter ending March 31, 2000. However, the SEC in late June
2000 announced that they were delaying the effective date for SAB 101 until no
later than the quarter ending December 31, 2000. As a result, the Company is
currently in the process of evaluating the potential impact that SAB 101 may
have on its revenue recognition policies and its results of operations. At this
time, the Company is not able to reasonably determine the potential impact of
the application of SAB 101 on its financial condition or results of operations.
4. Provision for Income Taxes
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company
provides for income taxes on an interim basis using its estimated annual
effective income tax rate. The Company is providing for income taxes in 2000 at
an effective tax rate of 34%, which is lower than the combined federal and state
statutory tax rates due primarily to net operating loss carryforwards,
utilization of tax credits and benefits derived from the Company's foreign sales
corporation.
5. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis
of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the effect of
dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of
basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding is as follows (in
thousands):

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains certain
safe harbors regarding forward-looking statements. Statements set forth herein
may contain "forward-looking" information that involves risks and uncertainties.
Actual future financial or operating results may differ materially from such
forward-looking statements. Statements indicating that the Company "expects,"
"estimates," "believes," "is planning," or "plans to" are forward looking, as
are other statements concerning future financial or operating results, product
offerings or other events that have not yet occurred. There are several
important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially
from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Such factors are
described in greater detail under Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Certain Factors That May Affect
Future Results. Although the Company has sought to identify the most significant
risks to its business, the Company cannot predict whether, or to what extent,
any of such risks may be realized nor can there be any assurance that the
Company has identified all possible issues that the Company may face.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2000 decreased approximately
$435,000, or 2.0%, to $21.6 million compared to the same period in 1999, while
total revenue for the first six months of 2000 increased approximately $5.7
million, or 13.5%, to $48.0 million compared to the same period in 1999.
Product revenue for the second quarter of 2000 decreased approximately
$2.7 million, or 21.7%, to $9.7 million compared to the same period in 1999,
while product revenue for the first six months of 2000 increased approximately
$706,000, or 3.0%, to $24.5 million compared to the same period in 1999. The
decrease in the second quarter of 2000 was due to decreased product shipments in
the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 resulting from a
slowdown in Unison(R) outbound system sales and a longer than expected sales
cycle associated with the Company's new Ensemble(TM) software suite.
Cost of product revenue for the second quarter of 2000 decreased
approximately $356,000, or 16.3%, to $1.8 million compared to the same period in
1999. Cost of product revenue for the first six months of 2000 decreased
approximately $377,000, or 8.6%, to $4.0 million compared to the same period in
1999. The decreases were due to lower product shipments in the second quarter of
2000 as well as the continued decrease in the hardware content of the company's
products.

<PAGE>
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)
Service revenue for the second quarter of 2000 increased approximately
$2.3 million, or 23.4%, to $11.9 million compared to the same period in 1999.
Service revenue for the first six months of 2000 increased approximately $5.0
million, or 27.1%, to $23.4 million compared to the same period in 1999. The
increase in service revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 was
primarily due to the growth in the Company's installed customer base, resulting
in increased new and renewed contract maintenance, implementation and
professional services revenue as compared to the same period in 1999.
Cost of service revenue for the second quarter of 2000 increased
approximately $586,000, or 11.0%, to $5.9 million compared to the same period in
1999. Cost of service revenue for the first six months of 2000 increased
approximately $942,000, or 8.9%, to $11.5 million compared to the same period in
1999. The increases during the second quarter and first six months of 2000 were
due primarily to increased headcount and payroll and related expenses compared
to the same period in 1999.
Research, development and engineering expenses increased approximately
$830,000, or 26.5%, to $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2000 as compared
to the same period in 1999. Research, development and engineering expenses
increased approximately $1.6 million, or 24.8%, to $7.8 million for the first
six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. These increases were
primarily due to increased headcount and payroll and related expenses in the
first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by
approximately $1.2 million, or 13.1%, to $10.4 million for the second quarter of
2000 compared to the same period in 1999. SG&A expenses increased by
approximately $3.1 million, or 17.6%, to $20.5 million for the first six months
of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. The increase for the second quarter
of 2000 was attributable to increases in headcount, payroll and related expenses
and travel expenses compared to the same period in 1999. The increase for the
first six months of 2000 is due primarily to the increase in payroll and related
expenses, marketing program expenditures for Ensemble(TM) and higher commission
and bonus expenses compared to the same period in 1999.
Other income in 2000 and 1999 was derived primarily from interest
income from investments in commercial paper, corporate bonds, Eurodollar bonds,
and similar financial instruments, net of investment fees. Other income
increased 71.5% for the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same period in
1999 and increased 56.0% for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same
period in 1999. The increase for the second quarter of 2000 and first six months
of 2000 is due to the higher average cash and investment balances compared to
the same periods in 1999.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the
Company provides for income taxes on an interim basis using its estimated annual
effective income tax rate. The Company is providing for income taxes in 2000 at
an effective tax rate of 34%, which is lower than the combined federal and state
statutory tax rates due primarily to the anticipated use of net

(continued)
operating loss carryforwards, tax credits and benefits derived from the
Company's foreign sales corporation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 2000, the Company's principal sources of liquidity were
its cash and cash equivalent balances of approximately $34.5 million, as well as
its marketable securities of approximately $38.8 million. At December 31, 1999,
the Company's cash and cash equivalent balances were approximately $34.4 million
and its marketable securities were approximately $30.8 million. The overall
increase of approximately $8.1 million in the total cash and marketable
securities balances was due primarily to cash provided from operating activities
and proceeds received from exercises of stock options during the six months of
2000.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of
2000 was approximately $6.0 million, compared to approximately $7.3 million for
the same period of 1999. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities
for the first six months of 2000 was due primarily to the decrease in accrued
expenses of approximately $4.6 million partially offset by a decrease in
accounts receivable of approximately $2.1 million for the period.
The Company's primary investing activities were purchases and
maturities of marketable securities and purchases of property and equipment.
Purchases and maturities of marketable securities generated a net cash outflow
of approximately $8.0 million during the first six months of 2000, compared to a
net cash inflow of approximately $3.1 million during the same period in 1999.
Property and equipment purchases were approximately $2.2 million during the
first six months of 2000, compared to approximately $1.5 million during the same
period in 1999.
Cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of
2000 totaled approximately $5.2 million and was generated from proceeds from the
exercise of stock options. Cash used in financing activities during the first
six months of 1999 totaled approximately $10.0 million and was due primarily to
the repurchase of 1,326,400 shares of the Company's common stock, partially
offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and from purchases of
stock through the Company's employee stock purchase plan.
At June 30, 2000, the working capital of the Company increased to
approximately $74.2 million from approximately $66.1 million as of December 31,
1999. This increase was primarily attributable to the higher total cash and
marketable securities balance resulting from the cash provided from operations
and the proceeds from the exercise of stock options during the first six months
of 2000.
The Company has an agreement for a working capital line of credit with
a bank for up to $2.0 million based on eligible receivables, as defined. There
were no outstanding balances under the line of credit as of June 30, 2000.
12
<PAGE>
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)
Management believes, based on its current operating plan, that the
Company's existing cash and marketable securities balances, cash generated from
operations and amounts available under its working capital line of credit are
sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements for the next twelve months.
YEAR 2000 IMPACT
For the first six months of 2000, the Company has not yet experienced
any material problems with its computer systems relating to distinguishing
twenty-first century dates and twentieth century dates, which generally are
referred to as Year 2000 problems. The Company is also not aware of any material
Year 2000 problems with its customers or vendors. Accordingly, the Company does
not anticipate incurring material expenses or experiencing any material
operational disruptions as a result of any Year 2000 problems.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Derivative Financial Instruments, Other Financial Instruments, and Derivative
Commodity Instruments.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company did not participate in any derivative
financial instruments or other financial and commodity instruments for which
fair value disclosure would be required under Statement of Financial Standards
(SFAS) No. 107. All of the Company's investments are short-term; commercial
paper, corporate bonds, Eurodollar bonds, and similar financial instruments that
are carried on the Company's books at amortized cost, which approximates fair
market value. Accordingly, the Company has no quantitative information
concerning the market risk of participating in such investments.
Primary Market Risk Exposures.
The Company's primary market risk exposures are in the areas of
interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company's
investment portfolio of cash equivalents and marketable securities is subject to
interest rate fluctuations, but the Company believes this risk is immaterial due
to the short-term nature of these investments.
The Company's exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations has been
and is expected to continue to be modest due to the fact that the operations of
its international subsidiaries are almost exclusively conducted in their
