$.5 million and acquisition related expenses for investment banker and legal
services of $.2 million. The Company reported goodwill related to the Access
Corporation transaction of $3.4 million.
NOTE 4 - Credit Arrangements
On May 28, 1998, the Company amended its credit agreement (Agreement) with a
bank to extend the maturity date to May 27, 1999, and to increase the line from
$4 million to $10 million. The Agreement contains covenants which, among other
things, require the maintenance of specified working capital, debt to equity
ratios, net income levels and tangible net worth levels. The line bears
interest at prime and the unused portion of the line is subject to a commitment
fee of 1/2 % per annum. The weighted average interest rates on borrowings
during the first half of 1998 and 1997 were 8.4% and 8.0% respectively. The
available balance on the total line of credit was $1,717,000 as of June 30,
1998.
<PAGE>
NOTE 5 - Income Taxes
At June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $3,600,000 of net operating
loss carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes which are scheduled to
expire periodically between 1998 and 2005. At December 31, 1997, the Company
had approximately $3,800,000 of net operating loss carryforwards for foreign
income tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance
has been recorded to offset a significant portion of the deferred tax assets
related to the foreign net operating loss carryforwards and other temporary
differences.
Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets
were as follows :

NOTE 7 - Year 2000 Compliance
The Company has addressed the Year 2000 compliance issues with its products.
During the first half of 1997, an initial mailing went out to notify customers
that current standard operating systems are in the process of modification to
insure Year 2000 compliance. They were also notified that application software
will be changed at the request of the individual customer on a chargeable basis
and that the Company does not plan to modify the operating systems of
non-current products to achieve Year 2000 compliance. A follow-up mailing is
planned for the third quarter of 1998.
The Company is in the early stages of implementing a fully compliant Enterprise
Resource Planning system as a replacement for the current manufacturing and
financial reporting system. This implementation is scheduled to be completed
by the second quarter of 1999 and will eliminate the potential information
technology internal risks associated with the Year 2000 compliance. A team of
individuals is analyzing other potential areas of risk associated with Year
2000 compliance. The costs and effects of these areas are unknown by the
Company at this time but are not expected to be material.
NOTE 8 - Comprehensive Income
As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME. Statement 130 establishes new
rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components;
however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's net
income or shareholders' equity. Statement 130 requires the Company's foreign
currency translation adjustments, which were reported separately in
shareholders' equity prior to adoption, to be included in other comprehensive
income.
The components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, are as follows:

NOTE 9 - Subsequent Event
The Company is filing this Form 10-Q/A to amend items reported in its quarterly
report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, filed on August 14,
1998, to reflect a revision of reported inventory and net income for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1998. Management has recently determined that
inventory was overstated at June 30, 1998 by approximately $0.5 million. This
overstatement was detected in the normal course of management's review of
detailed financial information and reconciliations prepared on a monthly basis.
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 1998
vs. 1997
Outlook
The forward-looking statements contained in this Outlook and elsewhere in this
document are based on current expectations. As such, actual results may differ
materially. The ability for Scan-Optics, (the "Company") to achieve the
following expectations could be impacted by increased competition or a slowdown
in growth within the scanning and imaging market, alternate forms of
processing, inability to consummate accretive acquisitions and changes in the
economic climates of foreign markets as well as that of the United States. The
foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive.
In 1997, the Company derived 39% of its total revenue from one customer, Toyo
Officemation, Inc., one of the Company's distributors in Japan. Health claims
processing systems represented 90% of this revenue. The Company completed its
order of ten high-volume scanning systems for this customer in the first
quarter of 1998. This order brings the total health claims processing systems
ordered on this contract to ninety-five. The Company's original expectation
was for one hundred and fifty systems to be delivered over the contract life.
The efficiencies created by the application of the Company's technology will
reduce the overall requirements for this contract. This customer is currently
evaluating its system requirements going forward. The Company believes that
with the continued pressures on the Yen and the objective to reduce the cost of
medical fee processing in Japan, the customer is faced with a challenge to
continue to improve its efficiency. The Company expects to receive the results
from this internal study in the second half of 1998. The Company believes that
success in achieving the initiatives described below will help offset a
foreseen significant reduction in sales from this customer for the balance of
1998 as compared to 1997. The inability of the Company to achieve these
initiatives may have a materially adverse effect on earnings.
Five major initiatives currently underway are expected to help compensate for
this anticipated decline in revenues. The first initiative is in the
healthcare industry, combining the Company's ImageEMC++ system with its high
performance image capture transports, to process HCFA Medicare claim forms as
well as other types of medical claim forms. The Company has focused on and has
experienced success with this vertical line of business and believes it
provides an opportunity for growth.
The second initiative consists of the Company's development of target market
data capture applications that, combined with its other high speed transports
and archival systems, will provide cost effective solutions. The current focus
is on the healthcare/insurance, government/tax, transportation, and order entry
markets. The Company expects to continue to emphasize its "Solutions at Work"
focus on these targeted markets for the foreseeable future. As other market
opportunities emerge, the Company will evaluate the potential of using its
products and services to provide "Solutions at Work" in new markets.
The third initiative is further expansion into the international marketplace.
The Company has successfully supplied product to the Japanese market and has
experienced strong sales activity through relationships with highly qualified
and productive distributors. Over the next two years, the Company will focus
on developing comparably strong relationships in Europe, Latin America and
other Pacific Rim countries.
The fourth initiative relates to leveraging the Company's core competencies in
an effort to add revenues and profits. The Company believes that its hardware
service, manufacturing and custom engineering organizations have potential to
sell their individual expertise, experience and cost effectiveness to other
entities. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company achieved favorable
results from this initiative by executing its first contract manufacturing
relationship under an agreement to manufacture secured access systems for
RAPOR, and through an agreement with Docutronix, Inc., that leverages the
services of the Company's field service personnel.
The last initiative is growth through an accretive acquisition(s). In the
fourth quarter of 1997, the Company engaged the services of an investment
banking firm to assist in a corporate growth strategy that is focused on the
consolidation occurring in the imaging and data capture market. The imaging
industry is made up of many smaller companies and management believes achieving
greater critical mass will increase the likelihood of growth in the adoption of
this technology. With that in mind, the Company is pursuing acquisitions that
will utilize its core competencies and will provide immediately accretive
earnings. It is the Company's policy not to discuss or comment on negotiations
regarding such transactions until a definitive agreement is signed or after
circumstances indicate a high degree of probability that a transaction will be
consummated, unless the law otherwise requires.
The Company completed two acquisitions during the month of June 1998. The
first was Southern Computer Systems (SCS), a privately held company, for $7
million in cash. The Company acquired cash and accounts receivable net of
reserves of $.4 million, fixed assets net of accumulated depreciation of $.3
million and other assets of $.1 million. The Company also assumed certain
liabilities as follows: accounts payable of $.5 million, salary and benefits
accruals of $.2 million, deferred revenue of $.1 million, note payable to Scan-
Optics, Inc. of $.5 million, acquisition related expenses for investment banker
and legal services of $.4 million and bank debt of $1.4 million. Immediately
following the closing, the bank debt was repaid. The Company reported goodwill
related to the SCS transaction of $9.2 million. SCS develops, markets and
supports a portfolio of data entry and document automation software products
that enable customers to realize high quality data, image capture, and
character recognition for high speed document recognition and data entry
applications. These products are designed to create, verify, validate and
export documents such as invoices, bills of lading, credit card applications
and order forms. SCS also provides document automation consulting, network and
application integration services. SCS markets and sells its products and
services to its 2,700 customers in the transportation, financial services,
health care and state and federal government markets. SCS currently has
approximately 40 employees. The Company intends to keep SCS at its present
location in Birmingham, Alabama.
The second acquisition was the Maintenance Division of Access Corporation for
$3.2 million in cash. The Company acquired accounts receivable net of reserves
of $.5 million. The Company also assumed a liability for deferred revenue of
$.5 million and acquisition related expenses for investment banker and legal
services of $.2 million. The Company reported goodwill related to the Access
Corporation transaction of $3.4 million. The Maintenance Division has
contracts with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Distributors to
supply on-site warranty and remedial maintenance for more than 1,000 customers.
Net sales in the first six months of 1998 decreased $5.4 million or 28%
compared with the first six months of 1997 and $4.9 million or 47% for the
second quarter of 1998 compared to the second quarter of 1997. Compared to the
first six months of 1997, international sales decreased $6.7 million while
North American sales increased $1.3 million. International sales related to
the Japanese Health Organization represented $5.2 million in sales during the
second quarter of 1997 and this contract was completed with $5.7 million in
sales during the first quarter of 1998. Other international sales decreased
$1.9 million during the second quarter of 1998 compared to 1997. North
American sales for the quarter increased $2.2 million to $4.5 million compared
to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 1997.
Service revenues increased $1.3 million in the first six months of 1998
compared with the first six months of 1997. Service revenues in the second
quarter of 1998 increased $.4 million from the second quarter of 1997. Customer
service revenue in the first six months of 1998 decreased $.2 million mainly
due to the continued transition of older product on maintenance surcharges with
currently released products. Year-to-date professional services revenue
increased $1.5 million due to the continued focus on the solutions business and
the four vertical lines of business.
Cost of sales decreased $3.5 million from the first half of 1997 and decreased
$3.5 million from the second quarter of 1997. The year-to-date and second
quarter decreases are a reflection of the completion of the Japanese Health
Organization contract during the first quarter of 1998. Cost of sales as a
percentage of net sales was 61% for the first six months of 1998, compared to
62% in the prior year. This percentage for the second quarter of 1998 was 52%,
compared to 62% for the same period in 1997. The decreases are due to a change
in the overall sales mix.
Service expenses increased $.8 million in the first half of 1998 and increased
$.5 million in the second quarter of 1998 compared with 1997. Customer service
expenses increased $.5 million in the first half of 1998 and $.3 million in the
second quarter of 1998 due to increases in staffing levels and outside service
expenses. Professional service expenses increased $.3 million in the first
half of 1998 and increased $.2 million in the second quarter mainly due to
increases in staffing levels and associated travel costs related directly to
the increase in revenues.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $.4 million in the first half of 1998
primarily due to a specific accounts receivable reserve in the first half of
1997. Expenses for the second quarter decreased $.1 million from 1997 to 1998,
mainly due to decreases in travel related expenses.
Research and development expenses in 1998 increased $.4 million from the first
half of 1997 and increased $.1 million in the second quarter. These increases
are mainly due to increases in consulting expenses related to the Company's
Image EMC++ product line.
General and administrative expenses remained consistent in the first half of
1998 compared with the first half of 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1998 decreased $2.9 million from December
31, 1997, for the reasons discussed below.
Borrowings increased to $8.3 million at June 30, 1998 from a zero balance at
the end of 1997. The borrowings were due to acquisition related activities, as
discussed in Item 5. On May 28, 1998, the Company amended its loan
agreement extending the maturity date to May 27, 1999 and increasing the line
of credit from $4 million to $10 million. (See Note 3 for further details.)
The available balance on the line of credit was $2,228,028 as of August 12,
1998.
Operating activities provided $1.4 million of cash in the first half of 1998.
Non-cash expenses recorded during the first six months of 1998 were $2.2
million vs. $2 million for the same period in 1997. These expenses relate to
depreciation of fixed assets (discussed in net plant and equipment below),
amortization of customer service spare parts inventory, provisions for losses
on accounts receivable, provisions for inventory obsolescence and deferred
taxes.
Net accounts receivable decreased $2 million during the first half of the
year mainly due to the timing of collections. Accounts receivable purchased
from Southern Computer Systems (SCS) and the Maintenance Division of Access
Corporation, offset by an increase in reserves, added $2.5 million to accounts
receivable.
Inventories decreased $2.9 million in the first half of 1998. Total
manufacturing inventories decreased $2.4 million from the beginning of the year
mainly due to a $1.6 million decrease in work-in-process inventory, a $.4
million decrease in raw materials, and a $.4 million decrease in finished
goods inventory. These decreases reflect the Company's focus on reducing
inventory levels and improving just-in-time purchases, as well as the
completion of several system orders including the completion of the Japanese
Health Organization order. Customer service inventories decreased by $.5
million in the first half of the year mainly due to the amortization of parts
inventory.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased $.4 million primarily due
to increases in prepaid costs related to the consulting and non-competition
agreements for the principals of SCS.
Net plant and equipment remained flat during the first half of 1998.
Additions of $.6 million for purchases related to the implementation of the
Enterprise Resource and Planning system, the SCS acquisition, and leasehold
improvements were offset by $.6 million of depreciation expense recorded during
the first half of the year.
Goodwill of $12.6 million was recorded during the second quarter of 1998, due
to the acquisitions of SCS and the Maintenance Division of Access Corporation.
Accounts payable decreased $.2 million from December 31, 1997, due to the
timing of payments.
Accrued salaries and wages decreased $.6 million reflecting the disbursement of
the 1997 incentive compensation of $1.1 million, offset by the current year's
accruals for incentive compensation and vacation.
Income taxes decreased $.9 million due to payment of the 1997 estimated income
tax liability and quarterly payments made for estimated 1998 tax liability.
Customer deposits decreased $2.4 million mainly due to the acceptance of the
Japanese health claims processing systems, recognized in revenue during the
first half of 1998, which had included substantial deposits.

Filed with respect to Form 8-K filed on June 30, 1998.
ITEM 7 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
ITEM 7 (b) - Pro forma statements of operations
Scan-Optics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Unaudited Pro Forma Statements of Operations
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations have
been prepared by Scan-Optics, Inc. ("SO") management. These statements reflect
SO's acquisition of Southern Computer Systems, Inc. ("SCS") and combine the
historical consolidated statement of operations of SO and SCS for the periods
indicated using the purchase method of accounting.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations reflect the
adjustments as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1997. These pro
forma statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
statements and related notes of SO and SCS.
The pro forma consolidated statements of operations have been prepared using
the following facts and assumptions:
SO acquired all the stock outstanding, 483 and 1/3 shares, of SCS for
$7 million in cash. SO also paid off the bank debt of SCS, of $1.4 million,
on the day of closing. Additionally, SO entered into a consulting and
noncompetition agreement with the two sellers of SCS, Stephen M. Freeman and
Raymond C. Griffin, Jr.
SO also incurred direct costs of approximately $.4 million. These costs
consist primarily of legal, accounting and financial advisory fees.
SO utilized cash on hand and approximately $4 million of the Company's line of
credit to fund the transaction.
SO estimates that it will incur approximately $.2 million in indirect
transaction costs. These costs relate primarily to personnel and travel costs
associated with those individuals assigned management and transition
responsibilities for SCS.
The purchase price will be allocated to the assets and liabilities of SCS based
upon their fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price in
excess of the fair value of net assets acquired of approximately $9.2 million
will be amortized over 20 years.
Pro forma adjustments to the consolidated statement of operations reflecting
anticipated additional sales, cost savings and other synergies, if any,
resulting from the acquisition of SCS are not permitted, and accordingly have
not been reflected in the pro forma financial statements.
The pro forma financial results are not intended to be a projection of future
results and are not necessarily indicative of the results which would have
occurred if the acquisition had been in effect on the dates presented.
