Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been reflected herein. Such adjustments included, in
addition to adjustments of a normal recurring nature, the writedown of
certain previously capitalized software development and other deferred costs,
which reduced net income by approximately $2.0 million during the first six
months of 1997. Certain financial information, which is normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles but which is not required for interim reporting
purposes, has been omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1996. The results of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
Note 2. Investment in Tower
Although the Company continued to have effective control of Tower, as a
result of a change in its voting control of Tower's shares, the Company ceased
to consolidate Tower's financial statements as of December 31, 1996. As the
Company's consolidated statement of operations for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1997 do not include Tower's balances while those for the
comparable periods in 1996 do, the Company's statements of operations for the
periods in 1997 and those in 1996 are not directly comparable.
Summarized income statement information of Tower for the three months and
six months ended June 30, 1997 is as follows:
Six months ended Three months ended

Research and development 3,239 1,930
Sales, general and administrative 3,919 2,002
Operating income 10,570 5,737
Note 3: Implementation of Accounting Standards.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
("FAS 128"), which establishes new standards for computing and presenting net
income per share. The statement is effective for periods ending after
December 15, 1997. Accordingly, the Company will adopt the standard beginning
with its fourth quarter of 1997. Had FAS 128 been adopted, net income (loss)
per common and common equivalent share amounts would not have been materially
different for the periods presented.
- 6 -
<PAGE>
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 130, "Disclosure about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information"("FAS 130"), which requires the reporting
of profit and loss, specific revenue and expense items, and assets for
reportable segments. It also requires the reconciliation of total segment
revenues, total segment profit or loss, total segment assets and other
amounts disclosed for segments to the corresponding amounts in the general
purpose financial statements. FAS 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997. The Company has not yet determined what additional
disclosures may be required in connection with adopting FAS 130.
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
("FAS 131"), which requires a reconciliation of net income to comprehensive
income in the financial statements. Comprehensive income includes items that
are excluded from net income and reported as components of stockholders'
equity, such as unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in debt
and equity securities, foreign currency items and minimum pension liability
adjustments. FAS 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997.
Note 4: Inventory
Inventory includes almost exclusively merchandise and finished goods.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
Data Systems & Software Inc. through its subsidiaries in the United
States and in Israel (collectively, the "Company") is a provider of computer
consulting and development services and packaged software products and is an
authorized direct seller and value-added-reseller of computer hardware
products. Through its Tower Semiconductor Ltd. subsidiary ("Tower") the
Company also engages in the manufacture of semiconductors.
Through the end of 1996, the Company conducted its business through two
business segments: the Computer Segment and the Semiconductor Segment. Although
the Company retains effective control of Tower, due to changes in the Company's
voting control in Tower, the balance sheets as at December 31, 1996 and June 30,
1997 do not include Tower balances. Commencing in 1997, the Company accounts for
its interest in Tower's results using the equity method, including its pro-rata
share of Tower's net income as equity income.
Capitalized software development costs reflected on the balance sheet
at June 30, 1997 were $4.5 million, all of which related to the Company's
EPSM product. Applicable accounting principles require that capitalized
software costs be periodically reviewed and written down to net realizable
value. The Company took significant writedowns of such costs in the first
quarter of 1997 and has taken such writedowns in prior periods. Possible
writedowns of currently capitalized software costs associated with EPSM may
significantly affect operating results in 1997 and\or future periods. The
Company's future operating results are also subject to the outcome of various
other factors and are subject to various other risks and uncertainties. See
"Item 1.Business-Factors Which May Affect Future Results" in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996 (the "1996
10-K").
Results of Operations
The following tables set forth certain information with respect to the
results of operations of the Company for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 1996 and 1997, the percentage of total revenues during each period
attributable to selected components of operations statement data, and the period
to period actual and percentage changes in such components.
The statements of operations for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 1997 reflect Tower's activity on the equity method while the
statements of operations for the comparable periods in 1996 reflects Tower's
activity on a fully consolidated basis. Therefore, the balances for the two
years are not directly comparable. Following is an analysis comparing the
statement of operations data for the Company in the first three months and
six months of 1997 to statement of operations data relating to the operations
of the Company's Computer Segment for the comparable periods in 1996.

</TABLE>
SALES. The increase in Computer Segment sales in the second quarter and
the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods in 1996
was due to increased sales from the Segment's United States operations,
primarily attributable to a 69% and a 102% increase in Computer - VAR sales
in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, as
compared to similar periods in 1996. These were partially offset by a
decrease in sales from the segment's Israeli operations, resulting from the
sale of the Company's Atir subsidiary at the end of the second quarter of
1996.
GROSS PROFIT. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of Computer
Segment sales in the second quarter of 1997, as compared to the same period in
1996, was primarily due to increased profitability in the Company's United
States operations, partially offset by decreased profitability in the Company's
Israeli operations resulting from increased labor costs. This decrease was the
primary reason for the decrease in gross profit as a percentage of Segment sales
in the first six months of 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. The increase in research and
development expenses in the Computer Segment during the second quarter of
1997, as compared to the same period in 1996, was attributable to continued
development expenses, not capitalizable, primarily for pilot maintenance,
related to the Company's EPSM product.
The increase in research and development expenses in the Computer Segment
during the six months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the same period in
1996, was primarily attributable to writedowns of previously capitalized
software of the PHD(TM) and CybrCard products during the first quarter of 1997.
These writedowns resulted from the Company's ongoing reassessment of the likely
realizable value of these costs in light of the short market cycle and rapid
rate of change in the PC-software environment.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("SG&A"). The increase in
SG&A in both periods was primarily attributable to increased marketing efforts
related to the Company's PHD and CybrCard products.
- 9 -
<PAGE>
OPERATING LOSS. The increase in the operating loss was primarily
attributable to the aforementioned increase in research and development
costs and marketing expenses.
SHARE OF AFFILIATED COMPANY'S NET INCOME. Had the Company incorporated
Tower's results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996 using
the equity method, equity income for those periods would have been $658,000 and
$2.1 million respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and $2.4 million for the
second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively. The increase in
Tower's net income was primarily attributable to higher sales and capacity
utilization.
NET INCOME (LOSS). The decrease in net income, resulting in a net loss
both in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, was attributable
to increased losses in the Company's Computer Segment, primarily as a result
from the aforementioned.
Financial Condition
As of June 30, 1997, DSSI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries had working
capital of $5.8 million including cash and cash equivalents of $1.4 million
and marketable securities of $1.4 million. The decrease in working capital is
primarily attributable to the Company's investment in the development and
marketing of its PHD and CybrCard products.
As of June 30, 1997, the Company's DSI Israel subsidiary had working
capital of $2 million, including short term bank deposits of $403,000. Certain
DSI bank deposits serve as collateral for bank loans and guarantees.
Impact of Inflation and Currency Fluctuations
Approximately 90% of the Company's sales are denominated in dollars. The
remaining portion is primarily denominated in New Israel Shekels ("NIS") that
are linked to the dollar. These transaction amounts are linked to the dollar for
the period between the date the transactions are entered into and the date they
are effected and billed. Subsequent thereto, through the date of settlement,
amounts are primarily unlinked. The majority of the Company's expenses in the
six months ended June 30, 1997 were in dollars or dollar-linked NIS and
virtually all the remaining expenses were in NIS. The dollar cost of the
Company's operations in Israel is influenced by the timing and extent of any
increase in the rate of inflation in Israel over the rate of inflation in the
United States that is not offset by the devaluation of the NIS in relation to
the dollar. The Company believes that the rate of inflation in Israel has had
a minor effect on its business to date. However, the Company's dollar costs
in Israel will increase if, as opposed to the first six months of 1997,
inflation in Israel exceeds, as in previous years, the devaluation of the NIS
against the dollar or the timing of such devaluation lags behind inflation in
Israel.
The Company does not engage in any hedging activities.
- 10 -
<PAGE>
As of June 30, 1997, virtually all of the Company's monetary assets and
liabilities that were not denominated in dollars or dollar-linked NIS were
denominated in NIS, and the net amount of such monetary assets and liabilities
was not material. In the event that in the future the Company has material net
monetary assets or liabilities that are not denominated in dollar-linked NIS,
such net assets or liabilities would be subject to the risk of currency
fluctuations.
