NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1996, and the
condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1996, and 1995, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30,
1996, and 1995, have been prepared by the Company without audit. These interim
financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring accruals, which management considers necessary for a fair presentation
of the financial statements for the above periods. The results of operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of
results that may be expected for any other interim periods or for the full year.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1995. The accounting policies used in preparing the
condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those described
in the December 31, 1995, consolidated financial statements.
2. BUSINESS MATTERS AND LIQUIDITY
Computer Concepts Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company") design, develop,
market and support information delivery software products, including end-user
data access tools for use in personal computer and client/server environments,
and systems management software products for corporate mainframe data centers.
The Company has incurred consolidated net losses of $2,786,000 for the
three months ended June30, 1996, $6,946,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1996, and cumulative net losses of $57,349,000 through June 30, 1996. As of June
30, 1996, the Company's current assets exceeded current liabilities by
$2,475,000. Approximately $753,000 of accounts payable were past due. The
Company is not experiencing difficulty in obtaining trade credit with customary
terms from its vendors. The Company recorded as an unusual charge in the March
31, 1996, condensed consolidated financial statements, $2,075,000 for a
settlement of a class action suit, wherein $2,000,000 worth of the Company's
common stock was placed in escrow and $75,000 was paid in cash. See Note 5d to
the condensed consolidated financial statements. During the six month period
ended June 30, 1996, net cash used in operating activities totaled $2,494,000,
consisting primarily of an operating net loss of $ 6,946,000, net of
depreciation and amortization of $1,541,000, non cash unusual charges of
$2,000,000, common stock issued for services of $305,000, and a net change in
operating assets and liabilities of $606,000. In addition, net cash used in
investing activities of $523,000 consisted primarily of software development
costs, $218,000, the purchase of fixed assets, $204,000, additional
consideration paid in connection with the Softworks, Inc. acquisition, $269,000,
offset by the proceeds from the sale of software technology, $250,000.

(Unaudited)
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
2. BUSINESS MATTERS AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)
The Company does not maintain a credit facility with any financial
institution. These uses of cash have been essentially funded through the
issuance of the Company's common stock as well as cash generated from Softworks,
Inc. Although the Company's liquidity position at June 30, 1996, has been
adversely affected by the aforementioned factors, equity placements during the
six months then ended, have mitigated these factors. During the six months ended
June 30, 1996, net proceeds from the sale of common stock and options were
$1,996,000. In addition, the Company received approximately $7,205,000 (net of
commissions and fees) from the sale of convertible debentures.See Note 4b to the
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Company received approximately $2,871,000
from the sale of additional convertible debentures. The Company believes that
these additional cash infusions will enable it to adequately maintain its
operations at least through September 30, 1997. At August 9, 1996, the Company
had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $7,931,000 (unaudited).
Ultimately, however, positive cash flows from operations will be necessary in
order to curtail the Company's reliance on equity placements.
To achieve positive cash flows from operations, management initiated during
1995, a series of cost saving measures, some of which include, wherever
possible, reductions in staffing, advertising, the use of outside consultants
and marketing costs. The Company has continued these measures in 1996. Further,
the Company has substantially closed down its DBopen product line. During 1995,
the Company significantly curtailed the Superbase operations, and, in April,
1996, ceased Superbase operations by selling off this technology. During the
quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Company was awarded a three year contract
wherein New York State may license the use of d.b.Express . During 1995, the
Company entered into development or license agreements with Oracle, IBM, Dell
Computers and Information Builders, Inc., and a sales and marketing agreement
with Perot Systems Corporation. However during the second quarter of 1996, the
Company was advised that Dell Computers had discontinued the distribution of
d.b.Express . Subsequent to June 30, 1996 the Company announced that it had
signed an agreement with the Availability Services branch of IBM, wherein they
will market the Company's d.b.Express product line. The above referenced
agreements and contract do not contain any sales commitments.
Management's plans continue to be centered on the successful exploitation
of the Company's d.b.Express product. To date, revenues from current versions of
d.b.Express from such agreements have been insignificant. Management expects
that future revenues will support the carrying value of the capitalized software
development costs related to d.b.Express of $912,000 at June 30, 1996.
Management believes that the successful implementation of the cost saving
measures and the planned exploitation of its d.b.Express technology will
eventually enable the Company

2. BUSINESS MATTERS AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)
to achieve positive cash flows from operations. The long-term success of the
Company, under its existing business plan, is dependent upon the Company's
ability to generate material d.b.Express sales revenues.
During April, 1996, the Company signed an agreement to sell the technology
of its Superbase subsidiary for $450,000, with $200,000 paid at closing and five
monthly payments of $50,000, commencing June 10, 1996. Such proceeds
approximated the carrying value of the software costs. Certain liabilities as of
the closing remain the responsibility of the subsidiary.
The Company is continuing its efforts to sell one of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Maplinx, Inc. ("Maplinx"). A previously signed Letter of Intent
expired in June, 1996. The expiration thereof does not adversely affect
Management's ongoing fair value analysis of the carrying value of this
subsidiary. Financial information pertaining to this wholly-owned subsidiary as
of and for the six months ended June 30, 1996, and as of and for the year ended
December 31, 1995, is summarized below:
<TABLE>

Net Loss: 469,000 508,000
</TABLE>
There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in its
attempt to sell the net assets of this wholly-owned subsidiary.
In connection with the 1993 acquisition of Softworks, Inc. ("Softworks")
the Company is required to make additional contingent purchase consideration
payments to two of Softworks' former shareholders based upon certain product
revenues for the years 1995 through 1998, up to a maximum of $1,000,000 each,
for an aggregate maximum of $2,000,000. Through June 30, 1996, the Company
incurred a liability of $630,000, (of which $564,000 has been paid) to the
non-employee former shareholders, which has been treated as additional

consideration in connection with the acquisition and, accordingly, included
in the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, as these
individuals did not continue in the employment of the Company subsequent to the
acquisition. No other contingent payments have been made under the terms of this
agreement.
In June, 1994, the Company completed the purchase of the Superbase product
technology and certain related assets from Software Publishing Corp. ("SPC") in
exchange for 2,031,175 shares of the Company's restricted stock, valued at
approximately $4,000,000, and $75,000 in cash. SPC received a valuation
guarantee for the stock issued, and will be permitted to sell such stock in an
orderly manner over a twelve month period following registration, which was
originally required to be completed before December 31, 1994. The agreement
provided that should such registration statement not be effective by December
31, 1994, SPC, at its option, could require the Company to repurchase the shares
issued for the amount of the valuation guarantee.
On January 19, 1995, SPC and the Company entered into an extension
agreement whereby the Company was given an extension to file the registration
statement to February 15, 1995. In exchange for that extension, the Company
agreed to pay SPC $560,000 (the "Penalty Amount"), payable $300,000 in cash in
three monthly installments, and $260,000 in additional shares of Company common
stock. These additional shares also have a valuation guarantee. As a result of
the Company's failure to meet the December 31, 1994, registration statement
filing deadline, the Company recorded the Penalty Amount as an unusual charge in
the December 31, 1994, consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30,
1996, the Company has paid $100,000 of the required $300,000 cash penalty
amount. The extension agreement included a provision that if the Company did not
meet the February 15, 1995 deadline, and the registration was not completed by
May 31, 1995, SPC would be entitled to either of the following (at SPC's
option): (i) the payment of an additional penalty payment equal to $638,400
payable equally in cash and Company common stock, or (ii) the repurchase of the
shares as provided for in the agreement. The Company did not meet the May 31,
1995 requirement. The Company recorded an additional penalty of $638,400 as an
unusual charge in the 1995 consolidated statement of operations. In June, 1996
SPC initiated the sale of a portion of its shares pursuant to the Rule 144
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and, further, exercised its option for
the penalty payment of $638,400. SPC has indicated that it believes it has been
damaged as a result of the further delay in effecting the registration of its
shares for which the Company denies any liability.
The stock issued to SPC included in the accompanying balance sheet as
"Common Stock Subject to Redemption" is classified as debt in the event the
Company is required to repurchase the shares at the guaranteed price. Effective
June, 1996 as a result of SPC's election to receive the $638,400 penalty and the
sale of approximately 25% of its shares, a corresponding portion of the "Common
Stock Subject to Redemption" has been reclassified to equity.

2. BUSINESS MATTERS AND LIQUIDITY (Continued)
In the event of a valid exercise by SPC, wherein the Company would be
required to repurchase the stock, it has received a firm commitment from a third
party to purchase, at market value, $2,000,000 of the holder's stock.
The Company is a defendant in several lawsuits and class action claims as
described in Note 5d. Based on consultation with legal counsel, the Company and
its officers believe that meritorious defenses exist regarding the lawsuits and
claims, and they are vigorously defending against the allegations. The Company
is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the claims, which could have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position and results of
operations of the Company. Accordingly, except as expressly discussed herein,
the financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from
the ultimate outcome of these litigation matters.
3. RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 financial statements
to conform to the 1996 presentation.
4. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
a. Authorized Common Shares
On March 20, 1996, the shareholders of the Company approved an increase in
the number of authorized common shares from 60,000,000 to 150,000,000 shares.
b. Sales of Common Stock
During the six month period ended June 30, 1996, the Company consummated
sales of restricted common stock under various private placement agreements.
Proceeds raised from these sales aggregated $1,733,000, net of offering
commissions and expenses estimated to be $297,000. A total of 1,015,000 shares
were sold at a price of $2.00 per share. Additionally, approximately $263,000
was raised through the exercise of stock options. During the six month period
ended June 30, 1996, the Company raised approximately $7,205,000 (net of
commissions and expenses of $795,000) through the sale of subordinated
convertible debentures. Such debentures, which aggregate to the principal amount
of $8,000,000 had maturity dates ranging from April, 1997 to March, 1998, and
are convertible, into the restricted

common stock of the Company at conversion rates ranging from 67.5% to 75.0% of
the prices of the Company's common stock during various defined periods. As of
the date of the filing of this report all $8,000,000 of the convertible
debentures had converted in to an aggregate of 8,969,695 shares of the Company's
common stock and has, accordingly, increased the Company's shareholders' equity
by an equal amount.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Company received approximately $2,871,000
net of commissions and expenses of $429,000 from the sale of an additional
convertible debenture.
c. Stock Option Plans
On March 20, 1996, the Company's shareholders approved the termination of
the 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "Employees' Plan"), the 1993 Directors, Officers
and Consultants Stock Option Plan (the "DOC Plan"), and the 1993 Prior Services
Stock Option Plan (the "Prior Services Plan") and the adoption of the 1995 Stock
Incentive Plan (the "1995 Incentive Plan"). Further, the Company's shareholders
also approved the Outside Director Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan").
Directors of the Company who are not full-time employees of the Company are
eligible to participate in the Director Plan.
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
a. Contingent Consideration
In connection with the 1993 acquisition of Softworks, the Company is
required to make additional payments to two of Softworks' former shareholders,
based upon certain product revenues for the years 1995 through 1998, up to an
aggregate maximum of $2,000,000. $564,000, treated for accounting purposes as
additional consideration, has been paid thus far through June 30, 1996. b.
Employment Agreements
The Company has entered into various employment agreements with certain key
employees for base compensation aggregating $690,000 per year.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)
These agreements expire at various times in 1996 and 1997 and would be
automatically renewed for succeeding terms of one year unless the Company, or
the employee, gives written notice.
c. Registration Statements/Restricted Securities
The Company has used restricted common stock for the purchase of certain
companies and has sold restricted common stock in private placements. At June
30, 1996, 18,774,000 shares of restricted common stock were issued and
outstanding, exclusive of shares which may be issued in connection with
acquisition related valuation guarantees or stock related valuation
guarantees.See Part II Item 5.
d. Legal Matters
During May 1994, the Company and certain officers received notification
that they had been named as defendants in a class action claim [Nicholas Cosmas
v Computer Concepts Corp., et al; United States District Court, Eastern District
of New York] alleging violations of certain securities laws with respect to
disclosures made regarding the Company's acquisition of Softworks, Inc. during
1993. Class certification was granted on February 6, 1995. The Company and its
officers have answered the complaint in the action, denying all wrongdoing
whatsoever alleged, and continue to deny all alleged wrongdoing, however, to
avoid further substantial expense, risk, inconvenience and the distraction of
the litigation, and to put to rest all controversies raised in the action, a
settlement of the matter has tentatively been agreed upon, which, if approved by
the court, will result in payment of a settlement fund of shares of common stock
of the Company with a minimum value of $2,000,000 plus a cash payment of $75,000
for the benefit of the class and payment of Plaintiff's counsel's legal fees as
approved by the court. The Company posted a charge to earnings in the first
quarter of 1996 of $2,075,000 to reflect this proposed settlement and does not
anticipate any additional charge to earnings in regard to this matter.
In July, 1995, the Company received notice of an action alleging the
Company had not used its best efforts to register warrants to purchase 500,000
shares of the Company's common stock within 30 days from written notice to the
Company, pursuant to a financial consulting agreement.

d. Legal Matters (Continued)
The Company has maintained that it has always used, its best efforts to
cause the registration of those warrants to occur. However, to avoid the expense
and resolve the uncertainties of litigation, the matter was originally settled
by including 385,000 warrants in the Company's pending registration statement,
with the balance of 115,000 warrants being canceled. As the pending registration
statement became effective on August 9, 1996, the Company believes this matter
has been resolved, however, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate
outcome of this suit and, accordingly, no adjustment has been made in the
consolidated financial statements for any potential losses.
In July, 1995, the Company and certain officers received notification that
they have been named as defendants in a class action claim in regard to
announcements and statements regarding the Company's business and products.
During August and September, 1995, four additional, substantially identical,
class action claims were made. In November, 1995, the five complaints were
consolidated into one action. To date, no class action has been certified, and
no damages have been specified in any of these class action claims. Based on
consultation with legal counsel, the Company and its officers believe that
meritorious defenses exist regarding the claims and they are vigorously
defending against the allegations. The Company is unable to predict the ultimate
outcome of these claims, which could have a material adverse impact on the
consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company, and
accordingly, no adjustment has been made for any potential losses.
On June 11, 1996, the Company received notice of entry of a default
judgement against it for $1,500,000 and specific performance to effect the
registration of common stock held by Merit Technology, Inc. in a matter which
the Company had not been served or received notice of (In Re: Merit Technology,
Inc., Debtor, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Eastern District of Texas). The Company
timely filed a motion to set aside the default judgement based on the lack of
service and meritorious defenses and is vigorously defending the matter. On
August 13, 1996, the default judgement was set aside by the Court. The Company
is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these claims, which could have a
material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position and results of
operations of the Company, and accordingly, no adjustment has been made for any
potential losses.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared with June 30, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, were $3,722,000, a $112,000
or 3% increase over the comparable period in 1995, while revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 1996, of $7,831,000 were $113,000 or 1.5% over the prior
year. For the quarter ended June 30,1996, net revenues increased at Softworks by
$868,000 while decreasing at Maplinx by $834,000 as compared to the quarter
ended June 30, 1995. Year to date increases of $1,730,000 and $56,000 at
Softworks and Computer Concepts, respectively, were offset by decreases of
$1,048,000 and $256,000 at Maplinx and Superbase, (which ceased operations in
April, 1996 ) respectively. The increase in revenues at Softworks is due
primarily to the release of new products and expanded sales and marketing
efforts. The decrease at Maplinx is principally due in large part to a delay in
the release of its new products. The closure of certain subsidiaries and product
lines accounted for an additional loss of revenues of approximately $357,000.
The cost of revenues and technical support decreased $327,000 to $1,282,000
for the quarter ended June 30,1996, as compared to $1,609,000 for the prior year
quarter and by $841,000 to $2,616,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
from $3,457,000 for the prior year six month period. The principal factors for
this decrease include the elimination of certain subsidiaries and product lines,
as well as various reductions in overhead.
Research and development costs decreased $33,000 to $322,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996 from $355,000 for the prior year quarter, and
increased $81,000 to $676,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, from
$595,000 for the prior year six month period. Substantially all development
activities were devoted to further develop current product technologies.
Sales and marketing expenses increased for the quarter ended June 30, 1996,
approximately $36,000 from the first quarter of the prior year primarily as a
result of increased efforts to market d.b.Express . However, for the six month
period ended June 30, 1996, expenses decreased when compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1995 by $585,000. The cumulative decrease is primarily a result
of the elimination of certain subsidiaries and product lines.
General and administrative costs decreased $922,000 to $1,677,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996, when compared to $2,599,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1995, and $347,000 to $3,494,000 for the six months ended
June 30,1996 from $3,841,000 for the six month ended June 30, 1995. The
principal factor contributing to the decrease has been the elimination of
certain subsidiaries and product lines.

See Notes 2 and 5d to the condensed consolidated financial statements for
discussions relating to unusual charges incurred during the six months ended
June 30, 1996.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
- -----------------------------------
The Company has incurred consolidated net losses of $2,786,000 for the
three months ended June30, 1996, $6,946,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1996, and cumulative net losses of $57,349,000 through June 30, 1996. As of June
30, 1996, the Company's current assets exceeded current liabilities by
$2,475,000. Approximately $753,000 of accounts payable were past due. The
Company is not experiencing difficulty in obtaining trade credit with customary
terms from its vendors. The Company recorded as an unusual charge in the March
31, 1996, condensed consolidated financial statements, $2,075,000 for a
settlement of a class action suit, wherein $2,000,000 worth of the Company's
common stock was placed in escrow and $75,000 was paid in cash. See Note 5d to
the condensed consolidated financial statements. During the six month period
ended June 30, 1996, net cash used in operating activities totaled $2,494,000,
consisting primarily of an operating net loss of $ 6,946,000, net of
depreciation and amortization of $1,541,000, non cash unusual charges of
$2,000,000, common stock issued for services of $305,000, and a net change in
operating assets and liabilities of $606,000. In addition, net cash used in
investing activities of $523,000 consisted primarily of software development
costs, $218,000, the purchase of fixed assets, $204,000, additional
consideration paid in connection with the Softworks, Inc. acquisition, $269,000,
offset by proceeds from the sale of software technology, $250,000.
The Company does not maintain a credit facility with any financial
institution. These uses of cash have been essentially funded through the
issuance of the Company's common stock as well as cash generated from Softworks,
Inc. Although the Company's liquidity position at June 30, 1996, has been
adversely affected by the aforementioned factors, equity placements during the
six months then ended, have mitigated these factors. During the six months ended
June 30, 1996, net proceeds from the sale of common stock and options were
$1,996,000. In addition, the Company received approximately $7,205,000 (net of
commissions and fees) from the sale of convertible debentures. See Note 4b to
the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the Company received approximately $2,871,000,
net of commissions and expenses, from the sale of additional convertible
debentures. The Company believes that these additional cash infusions will
enable it to adequately maintain its operations at least through September 30,
1997. At August 9, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $7,931,000

(unaudited). Ultimately, however, positive cash flows from operations will be
necessary in order to curtail the Company's reliance on equity placements.
To achieve positive cash flows from operations, management initiated during
1995, a series of cost saving measures, some of which include, wherever
possible, reductions in staffing, advertising, the use of outside consultants
and marketing costs. The Company has continued these measures in 1996. Further,
the Company has substantially closed down its DBopen product line. During 1995,
the Company significantly curtailed the Superbase operations, and, in April,
1996, ceased Superbase operations by selling off this technology. During the
quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Company was awarded a three year contract
wherein New York State may license the use of d.b.Express . During 1995, the
Company entered into development or license agreements with Oracle, IBM, Dell
Computers and Information Builders, Inc., and a sales and marketing agreement
with Perot Systems Corporation. However during the second quarter of 1996, the
Company was advised that Dell Computers had discontinued the distribution of
d.b.Express . Subsequent to June 30, 1996 the Company announced that it had
signed an agreement with the Availability Services branch of IBM, wherein they
will market the Company's d.b.Express product line. The above referenced
agreements and contract do not contain any sales commitments.
Management's plans continue to be centered on the successful exploitation
of the Company's d.b.Express product. To date, revenues from current versions of
d.b.Express from such agreements have been insignificant. Management expects
that future revenues will support the carrying value of the capitalized software
development costs related to d.b.Express of $912,000 at June 30, 1996.
Management believes that the successful implementation of the cost saving
measures and the planned exploitation of its d.b.Express technology will
eventually enable the Company to achieve positive cash flows from operations.
The long-term success of the Company, under its existing business plan, is
dependent upon the Company's ability to generate material d.b.Express sales
revenues.
Softworks sells perpetual and fixed term licenses for its mainframe
products, for which extended payment terms of three to five years may be
offered. In the case of extended term payment agreements, the customer is
contractually bound to equal and annual fixed payments. The first year of post
contract customer support (PCS) is bundled with standard license agreements. In
cases of extended term license agreements, PCS is bundled for the length of the
payment term. Thereafter, in both instances, the customer may purchase PCS
annually. At June 30, 1996, the amount of such future receivables extending
beyond one year was approximately $944,000, and is included in installment
accounts receivable-due after one year and deferred revenues.

During April, 1996, the Company signed an agreement to sell the technology
of its Superbase subsidiary for $450,000, with $200,000 paid at closing and five
monthly payments of $50,000, commencing June 10, 1996. Such proceeds
approximated the carrying value of the software costs. Certain liabilities as of
the closing remain the responsibility of the subsidiary.
