             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

                                 JUNE 30, 1996

1.   INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Timeline, Inc. and
subsidiary (the Company) are unaudited.  In the opinion of the Company's
management, the financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial
information set forth therein.  Results of operations for the three month
period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of future financial
results.

Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the
interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB.
Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 1996,
previously reported.

Net Loss per Common and Common Equivalent Shares

For the three months ended June 30, 1996, net loss per common and common
equivalent share was based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during each period.  Common stock equivalents include shares
issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options or warrants.  These
shares are not included in the computation of net loss per share because the
effect of including such shares would be antidilutive.

2.   SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Changes in shareholders' equity for the period from March 31, 1996 to June 30,
1996 were as follows:

- -----------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 over the comparable period
ended June 30, 1995 reflected an increase of approximately 9% which is
attributable to sales of the MetaView product line.  Software development
revenues in the period ended June 30 1996 are from the Company's continued
development relationship with Microsoft Corporation on the Microsoft Small
Business Financial Manager.  This arrangement was not producing revenues in the
comparable period ended June 30, 1995.

Maintenance revenue decreased 26% for the comparable three month period.  This
reflects decreasing maintenance renewal from licensees of Timeline's accounting
systems based on Digital Equipment Corporation's ("Digital") operating systems.
Consulting revenue increased 11%.  The demand for consulting is due to the
increase in the number of licensees requesting installation support and
training during the current and immediately prior quarters.

GROSS MARGIN

                                       7

The Company's gross margin varies in part depending upon the mix of
higher-margin software licenses and consulting and maintenance revenue, which
is labor intensive.  Additionally, costs associated with the software
development alliance with Microsoft increased in the period ended June 30,
1996, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995.

SALES AND MARKETING


<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                            Three Months Ended June 30,
                                1996            1995          Change
- --------------------------------------------------------------------

<S>                            <C>             <C>             <C>
Sales and marketing             657             372             77%
Percentage of revenue           44%             28%
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales increased
substantially between the periods presented.  Actual dollar expenditures also
increased by 77%.  This increase is due primarily to an increase in the number
of sales personnel during the quarter ended June 30, 1996, specifically in the
London and Chicago areas, where no offices existed at June 30, 1995.
Furthermore, Marketing undertook a number of seminars in England and the United
States to inform prospects of Timeline's new product offerings.

In July, 1996, the Company's Vice President of North American Sales resigned.
Management believes the sales organization is well established and has no plans
to fill this position in the near future. However, sales and marketing
expenses are expected to continue to increase in the future.  Management's
goal of increasing the dollar amounts of new license revenue would, if
accomplished, cause a correlative increase in commissions paid to sales
personnel.  Additionally, it is management's intention to continue to increase
the sales and marketing staff in an effort to increase new license revenue.


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

A majority of the development costs expensed during the June 30, 1996 quarter
are attributable to the MetaView product line.  Timeline released MetaView
Analyst(TM), its PC-based database/Excel product, in June, 1996.  This new
product is designed to accept data either directly from an accounting system(s)
or from MetaView Server(TM) and to allow the end user to have a personal set of
data available for reporting and analysis resident on his or her personal
computer.  Additional development during the quarter focused on a companion
product, MetaView Manager, which is scheduled for release in August, 1996.

Additional development expenses were incurred in the June 30, 1996 quarter in
moving certain functions of MetaView Server(TM) to SQL Server(TM) from
Microsoft Access.  This effort was undertaken to allow greater speed and
capacity for posting and manipulating data in this product.

In June, 1996, as part of management's ongoing analysis of the effectiveness of
the research and development effort, Product Management and Development were
merged as a single department.  Fred Dean, Vice President of Product Management,
assumed management of the combined department. The former Vice President of
Development left Timeline as an employee but is providing management services to
the Company under a separate agreement.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

                                    1996            1995       Change

<S>                                <C>             <C>          <C>
General & administrative            613             403          52%
Percentage of revenues              41%             31%
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

The increase in general and administrative expenses between comparable three
month periods ended June 30, 1995 and June 30, 1996, reflects increased
administration personnel, rent, and general office expenses in our recently
opened London, England office.  Additionally, expanded office space has caused
increased rent and related expense in the Company's Bellevue location.
Finally, G&A expenses generally reflect the higher costs associated with
supporting an approximate 60% increase in employment at the Company from June
30, 1995 to June 30, 1996.

Management believes general and administrative expenses will continue to
increase in the future.  However, management does not anticipate increases at a
rate equivalent to those reflected herein as future growth in employment is
projected to be at a more modest rate.

INCOME TAX

Income taxes are provided in the statement of operations in accordance with the
liability method.  The Company previously determined that the tax assets
generated by the prior year's net operating losses and research and
experimentation credits did not satisfy the recognition criteria set forth
under the liability method.  Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded
against the applicable deferred tax assets and therefore no tax benefit was
recorded in prior years.  Therefore, the previously recorded valuation
allowance will be reversed to the extent of taxable income.

In connection with the Company's initial public offering in January 1995, the
Company experienced a significant change in ownership, which limits the amount
of net operating loss carryforwards and credits which may be used in any given
year.  However, the Company does not expect this to be a factor in fiscal 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities increased from
$391,716 at March 31, 1996 to $1,748,580 at June 30, 1996.  The Company had net
working capital  (excluding deferred revenue) of $2,423,374 at June 30, 1996.
The Company's liquid position is directly attributable to the receipt of
$2,332,058, net of issuance costs, upon closing of a private placement of
common stock in May of 1996, offset by losses of $631,131 incurred during this
quarter.


                                       9

<PAGE>   10




The Company believes funds from operations and interest income will provide the
Company with sufficient funds to finance its operations.  The Company maintains
a $750,000 line of credit with a local bank.  The line of credit has a variable
rate of interest of prime plus 1.5%.  Related borrowings are secured by the
Company's short-term investments.  Any guarantee of the obligation of the
Timeline Employee Stock Ownership Trust reduces the amount available to be
drawn on this line of credit.  There were no borrowings outstanding under this
line of credit as of June 30, 1996.
