NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. The Company
The BISYS(R) Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is a leading
national provider of outsourcing solutions to and through financial
organizations.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The
BISYS Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and have been prepared consistent
with the accounting policies reflected in the 1996 Annual Report on Form
10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read
in conjunction therewith. The condensed consolidated financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly this
information.
2. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates are
related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, merger
expenses and other charges, income taxes and contingencies. It is
reasonably possible that actual results could differ from these estimates
in the near term.
3. Contingencies
For a description of certain legal proceedings related to the Company,
refer to Part II, Item 1 - "Legal Proceedings" and the 1996 Annual Report
on Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company provides outsourcing solutions to and through financial
organizations and reports as a single segment. The operating margins for each
business unit of the Company are not significantly different. The following
table presents the percentage of revenues represented by each item in the
Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations for the periods
indicated:

===== =====
Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 with the Three Months
Ended September 30, 1995.
Revenues increased 38.5% from $52.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 to $72.4 million for the three months ended September
30, 1996. This growth was derived from sales to new clients, existing
client growth, and cross sales to existing clients, partially offset by
lost business.
Service and operating expenses increased 45.5% from $27.5 million during
the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $40.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenues
from 52.6% to 55.3%. These increases resulted from additional costs
associated with greater revenues.
General and administrative expenses increased 34.6% from $10.2 million
during the three months ended September 30, 1995, to $13.7 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1996, but decreased as a percentage of
revenues from 19.5% to 18.9%. The dollar increase resulted from additional
costs associated with greater revenues. The decrease as a percentage of
revenues resulted from further utilization of existing general and
administrative support resources.
Operating earnings of $12.3 million for the three months ended September
30, 1996 increased from $8.9 million for the three months ended September
30, 1995, and remained flat as a percentage of revenues at approximately
17.0%.
The income tax provision of $5.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 increased from $3.3 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The provision represents an effective tax rate of 40.0%
for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to 38.0% for the
three months ended September 30, 1995. The lower rate in the prior year was
primarily due to the impact of an adjustment to the valuation allowance
during the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $42.7
million and working capital of $48.6 million. The Company has been able to
satisfy its cash requirements through its cash flows from operations. The
Company is in discussion with its lenders to obtain a $100.0 million
revolving credit facility, and terminated its existing $10.0 million
revolving credit facility in October 1996. At September 30, 1996, the
Company had $0.2 million outstanding in the form of letters of credit. The
interest rate on other outstanding long-term borrowings of $1.9 million at
September 30, 1996 was 7.75%.
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, operating activities
provided cash of $8.1 million, primarily through net earnings of $7.7
million. Investing activities used cash of $6.5 million, primarily for
capital expenditures of $3.5 million and $3.0 million for purchases of
short-term investments. Financing activities provided cash of $1.7 million,
$1.8 million from the exercise of stock options, offset by $0.1 million for
the repayment of debt.
Merger Expenses and Other Charges
At September 30, 1996, approximately $7.9 million of costs to integrate new
operations arising from prior acquisitions and costs relating to the
combining of certain data center operations are included in accrued
liabilities on the accompanying balance sheet. Approximately $1.8 million
of such expenses were paid during the three months ended September 30,
1996.
Accrued liabilities also include $14.0 million of estimated commissions and
other expenses incurred in connection with the outsourcing alliance
agreement entered into in June 1996 between the Company and the mutual fund
division of Furman Selz LLC. During October 1996, $8.8 million of such
expense were paid by the Company to Furman Selz pursuant to the agreement.
It is anticipated that the actions to combine and integrate the
aforementioned operations will be substantially completed by June 30, 1997.
Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this quarterly report are forward-looking statements which
involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to economic,
competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's
operations, markets, services and related products, prices, and other
factors discussed in the Company's prior filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On August 23, 1994 and September 9, 1994, two purchasers of
Concord's stock, Seymour Lazar and Joshua Teitelbaum, on behalf of
themselves and all others similarly situated, filed class action
complaints in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of California against Concord, its Board of Directors and
certain officers, Hambrecht & Quist Group, Bank of America NT&SA and
Montgomery Securities alleging violations of the federal securities
laws. The complaints allege that these individuals and entities
misrepresented Concord's business and future prospects during
Concord's initial public offering and in subsequent statements in
order to successfully consummate the offering and to sustain an
artificially inflated price for Concord's common stock. Accordingly,
the plaintiffs seek to recover losses allegedly sustained by a class
who purchased Concord's common stock between February 24, 1994, and
June 17, 1994. The complaints do not specify the amount of damages
sought. The two cases have been consolidated. The parties have
entered into a definitive agreement subject to final court approval.
Regardless of any settlement, management believes that the Company
has adequate defenses and/or insurance coverage against litigation
and that the outcome of these proceedings, individually or in the
aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect upon the
Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company only considers insurance deemed probable when evaluating
loss contingencies.
