THE BISYS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. THE COMPANY
The BISYS -Registered Trademark- 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. DISPOSITION OF ITEM PROCESSING DIVISION
On October 30, 1996, the Company sold, pursuant to a stock purchase
agreement, all of the outstanding stock of its Item Processing Division to
a third party transaction processing company. The Item Processing Division
provides item processing services to financial institutions across the
country through a number of processing facilities. The stock purchase
agreement provides for an initial cash payment and additional
consideration payable to the Company contingent upon the level of revenues
generated by existing and new customers of the Item Processing Division
during the two years following the sale. The sale had no material impact
on the Company's financial position or results of operations for the three
months ended December 31, 1996.
3. 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. Actual results
could differ from these estimates in the near term.
4. 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.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 WITH THE THREE MONTHS
ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995.
Revenues increased 33.7% from $55.9 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1995 to $74.8 million for the three months ended December 31,
1996. This growth was derived from sales to new clients, existing client
growth, cross sales to existing clients and revenues from acquired
businesses, partially offset by lost business.
Service and operating expenses increased 38.7% from $29.4 million during
the three months ended December 31, 1995 to $40.8 million for three months
ended December 31, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenues from
52.6% to 54.5%. These increases resulted from additional costs associated
with greater revenues.
General and administrative expenses increased 34.1% from $9.7 million
during the three months ended December 31, 1995, to $13.0 million for the
three months ended December 31, 1996, and remained flat as a percentage of
revenues at approximately 17.4%. The dollar increase resulted from
additional costs associated with additional revenues.
Operating earnings increased 30.8% from $11.0 million during the three
months ended December 31, 1995, to $14.4 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1996, and decreased as a percentage of revenues from 19.7% to
19.3%.
Interest income was $0.5 million greater for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year due
to higher levels of invested cash and cash equivalents.
The income tax provision of $6.0 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 increased from $4.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1995. The provision represents an effective tax rate of 40.0%
for the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to 38.0% for the
three months ended December 31, 1995. The lower rate in the prior year was
primarily due to the impact of an adjustment to the deferred tax asset
valuation allowance during the three months ended December 31, 1995.

<PAGE>
COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1995.
Revenues increased 36.0% from $108.2 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1995 to $147.2 million for the six months ended December 31,
1996. This revenue growth was derived from sales to new clients,existing
client growth, cross sales to existing clients and revenues from acquired
businesses, partially offset by lost business.
Service and operating expenses increased 38.7% from $56.9 million during
the six months ended December 31, 1995 to $80.8 million for the six months
ended December 31, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenues from
52.6% to 54.5%. These increases resulted from additional costs associated
with greater revenues.
General and administrative expenses increased 34.3% from $19.9 million
during the six months ended December 31, 1995 to $26.8 million for the six
months ended December 31, 1996, and decreased as a percentage of revenues
from 18.4% to 18.2%. 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 $26.7 million for the six months ended December 31,
1996 increased from $19.9 million for the six months ended December 31,
1995, and decreased as a percentage of revenues from 18.4% to 18.1%.
Interest income was $1.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 1996
compared to interest expense of $0.1 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1995 due to higher levels of invested cash and cash
equivalents.
The income tax provision of $11.1 million for the six months ended December
31, 1996 increased from $7.5 million for the six months ended December 31,
1995. The provision represents an effective tax rate of 40.0% for the six
months ended December 31, 1996, compared to 38.0% for the six months ended
December 31, 1996. The lower rate in the prior year was primarily due to
the impact of an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance
during the six months ended December 31, 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $47.9
million and working capital of approximately $58.9 million. The Company
has been able to finance 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 line of credit facility in October 1996. At
December 31, 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 $1.6 million at December 31, 1996 was 7.75%.
For the six months ended December 31, 1996, operating activities provided
cash of $9.0 million primarily through net earnings of $16.6 million.
Investing activities used cash of $3.6 million primarily for capital
expenditures of $7.7 million offset by net proceeds from sale of businesses
of $3.8 million. Financing activities provided cash of $3.1 million, $3.2
million from the exercise of stock options, offset by $.01 million for the
repayment of debt.

mutual fund division of Furman Selz LLC. Approximately $9.0 million of
such expenses were paid by the Company to Furman Selz pursuant to the
agreement during the three months ended December 31, 1996.
It is anticipated that the actions to combine and integrate the
aforementioned operations will be substantially completed by June 30, 1997.

PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On August 23, 1994, and September 8, 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 alleged 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 sought to recover losses allegedly sustained by a class
who purchased Concord's common stock between February 24, 1994, and
June 17, 1994. The complaints did not specify the amount of damages
sought. The two cases were consolidated into one case. The parties
entered into a definitive settlement agreement which was approved by
the court. On November 22, 1996, the court issued its order of final
judgment and dismissed the case with prejudice. The Company paid the
amount required in the settlement agreement during the three months
ended December 31, 1996 and has no further obligations.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company, held on November
14, 1996, the Stockholders approved the following matters:
