1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
StarBase Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), is a leading
provider of advanced Internet and intranet based technical collaboration and
software configuration management (SCM) tools. The Company develops, markets and
supports team-oriented development software that targets the evolving needs of
corporate info-structures which support projects requiring technical
collaboration on an enterprise level. The Company's current product line
consists of the recently launched products StarTeam(R) 3.0 and StarTeam(R) 2000,
as well as RoundTable(R) and Versions(R). StarTeam 3.0 has been recognized in
the industry as the only product to effectively integrate the essential
components of SCM tools in one easy-to-use and intuitive interface built on top
of a collaborative framework. The Company has chosen to focus on technical
collaboration and team productivity since the wide usage of the Internet has
created a tremendous potential market for distributed project teams needing
secure, remote access to projects. Additionally, StarTeam 2000 is specifically
designed to address the complex and mission critical issues involved with the
management, asset tracking and reporting issues surrounding Year 2000 compliance
projects. The Company has also practically eliminated the barriers to entry for
current users of other SCM tools by inter-operating with the leading Windows
based SCM products. Furthermore, the Company's products utilize and are tightly
integrated with various Microsoft technologies, a market leader in technology
software.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly,
certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have not been presented. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto
included in the StarBase Corporation report to the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form 10-KSB/A, for the year ended March 31, 1998.
The interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
period presented. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to
conform to current period classifications. The results of operations for the six
months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for a full year.
BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted
average shares of common stock outstanding excluding 1,418,638 outstanding
common shares held in escrow. Common stock equivalents are considered
anti-dilutive and are excluded from this calculation.

STARBASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS 128"). FAS
128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share
("EPS"). It replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of
basic EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. It also requires a reconciliation of the numerator
and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of
the diluted EPS computation. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted
EPS pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15. This statement was
adopted by the Company beginning with its quarterly period ended December 31,
1997 and, since the Company is considered a simple capital structure for
reporting EPS, previously reported loss per common share data were not affected
RESTRICTED CASH
On September 17, 1998, the Company pledged $118,000 of cash for an irrevocable
letter of credit related to the lease of new office space and was classified as
restricted cash on the balance sheet. The letter of credit will be reduced by
33.33% each year and will expire on July 2, 2001.

4. RESTATEMENTS
The Company has restated the results of the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to
recognize a non-cash dividend aggregating $1,660,000 as a result of common stock
issued in exchange for warrants to acquire shares of the Company's common stock.
This dividend represents the excess of the fair value of the Company's common
stock on the offer date over the estimated fair value of the warrants exchanged.
The estimated fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes
method. This dividend did not change overall shareholders' equity.
The Company offered the holders of the Company's outstanding warrants the option
to exchange all issued and outstanding warrants for shares of the Company's
common stock. Each warrant holder who accepted the offer by midnight, Pacific
Standard Time, on June 30, 1997, the expiration date of the offer, received one
share of common stock for every three warrants held. The warrants which remained
unexchanged subsequent to the expiration date of the offer continued under the
original terms of each warrant. At June 30, 1997, 4,734,534 warrants were
converted and 1,581,150 common shares had been issued upon conversion of such
warrants.
The Company has also restated the second quarter of fiscal 1999 financial
statements to recognize compensation expense of $130,000, determined using the
Black-Scholes pricing model, relating to the issuance of options to purchase
240,000 shares of common stock given to outside consultants. Such restatements
increased selling, general and administrative expenses, net loss, additional
paid-in-capital and accumulated deficit by $130,000 and increased the net loss
per basic and diluted share from $(.28) to $(.29) per share for the six months
ended September 30, 1998.
The restated financial statements also include an adjustment of $135,000 related
to the value of the beneficial conversion feature related to the issuance of the
Series G Preferred Stock warrants (see note 5). The affect of such restatement
is to increase the net loss applicable to common stock for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1998 by $135,000.
There are certain overhead expenses, such as facility and insurance expenses,
that have been reclassified from Selling, general & administrative to Research &
development. For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the amount totaled
approximately $46,000.
5. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. During the
quarter ending September 30, 1998, 400,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock
and 1,281,350 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were converted into 449,502 and
1,281,350 shares of common stock, respectively.
Effective July 31, 1998, the Company completed a private placement of 3,100
shares of Series G Preferred Stock for $3,000,000. The Series G Preferred Stock
is not redeemable and has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. The
holders of Series G Preferred Stock are not entitled to receive any dividends
nor, except as provided by law, vote upon any matter relating to the business or
affairs of the Company or for any other purpose. Each share of Series G
Preferred Stock is convertible, after the holding period, into the Company's
common stock, at a conversion rate which is determined by dividing $1,000 by the
Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be the lesser of (a) $1.66 or (b)
95% of the average closing bid price of the three lowest bid prices of common
stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. for shares traded in the United States
during the 22 consecutive trading days preceding the conversion date. In
addition, the Company issued 627,534 warrants related to the Series G Preferred
Stock. Each warrant is exercisable for one share of common stock at $0.78
through August 29, 2000, after which the warrants will expire.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Total revenue increased in the three month period ended September 30, 1998 by
$1,278,000 or 349%, to $1,644,000, from $366,000 in the same three month period
of the previous year due to the increase in product, maintenance and training
revenue, $1,228,000, combined with the increase in license and royalty revenue
from the Company's Roundtable product of $50,000. Total revenue for the six
month period ended September 30, 1998, increased to $2,798,000 from $704,000 in
the same period of the prior year. The increase in product revenue has been
favorably affected by the February 1998 release of the StarTeam 3.0 family of
products.
Cost of Sales increased to $97,000 from $23,000 in the three month period ended
September 30, 1998 over the same quarter of the previous year and to $336,000
from $55,000 for the six month period ended September 30, 1998 over the same
period of the previous year due to the increase in product shipments. Cost of
sales consists primarily of manufacturing and related costs such as media,
documentation, product assembly and third party royalties. The Company
out-sources manufacturing for all software products, with the exception of the
Company's Roundtable product.
Operating expenses in the three month period ended September 30, 1998 increased
to $4,181,000 from $1,764,000 in the same quarter of the previous year. For the
six month period ended September 30, 1998, operating expenses increased to
$7,415,000 from $3,426,000. These increases were primarily due to the building
of the sales & marketing and research & development infrastructures. At
September 30, 1998, the Company had 101 employees, which consisted of 36 in
sales & marketing, 42 in research & development and 23 in general &
administrative. At September 30, 1997, the Company had 48 employees, which
consisted of 15 in sales & marketing, 24 in research & development and 9 in
general & administrative.
Research and development expenses. Research & development expenses include
personnel and other such direct and overhead expenses incurred in the
development of the Company's products. StarBase continues to make significant
investments in research and development to bring new products to market and to
support existing products. In the three month period ended September 30, 1998
overall research and development expenses increased to $1,085,000 compared to
$561,000 for the same period in the prior year and for the six month period
ended September 30, 1998 increased to $2,138,000 compared to $1,105,000 for the
same period in the prior year primarily as a result of the increase in
development staff.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general & administrative
expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased approximately
$1,893,000 over the same period in the prior year. For the six month period
ended September 30, 1998 selling, general & administrative expenses increased to
$5,277,000 from $2,321,000 in the corresponding period of the prior year. These
increases were mainly the result of additional sales and marketing personnel
coupled with the advertising and promotion programs to launch the StarTeam 3.0
family of products.

<PAGE> 11
INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE
Interest income for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 decreased to
$11,000 compared to $24,000 for the same period in the prior year.
Interest expense for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 decreased
to $3,000 compared to $360,000 for the same period in the prior year. Prior
periods interest expense was a result of the non-cash beneficial conversion
feature for the Convertible Debentures.
INCOME TAXES
The Company has not recorded a current or deferred provision for federal income
taxes for any period to date, as a result of losses incurred since its
inception. Any provision for income taxes represents the minimum required for
state taxes.
NON-CASH DIVIDEND
Non-cash dividend for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 was
$178,000 due to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series G Preferred and
Warrants issued. There was no non-cash dividend for the three month period ended
September 30, 1997.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND FACTORS THAT MAY EFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Sections 21E and 27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward
looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. There are several
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those anticipated by the forward-looking statements contained in the following
discussion. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the growth rates of
certain market segments, the timing of software product introductions, market
acceptance of product introductions, the positioning of the Company's products
in those segments, price pressures and the rapidly changing competitive
environment in the software industry, success in technological advances and
their implementation, business conditions and the general economy, the Company's
ability to manage its business in its evolution from a development stage
company, and the Company's ability to establish strategic alliances. Additional
information on these and other risk factors which could affect the Company's
financial results is included in the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1998 on Form 10-KSB/A on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents on hand as of September 30, 1998 totaled $1,287,000
and $2,924,000 as of September 30, 1997. At September 30, 1998 the Company had
positive working capital of $1,594,000 compared to $2,477,000 at September 30,
1997.
During the six months ended September 30, 1998, the Company used $5,260,000 for
operations, an increase of approximately $2,700,000 over the amount used for
operations in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the building of
the Company's infrastructure. Capital expenditures were approximately $547,000
and $64,000 during the six months ended September 30, 1998 and September 30,
1997, respectively.
In September 1998, the Company established an irrevocable standby letter of
credit in the amount of $118,000 for benefit of Starwood O.C. Portfolio 1, LLC,
the landlord of the Company's new office space located at 4 Hutton Centre Drive,
Santa Ana, CA 92707. The letter of credit will be reduced by 33.33% each year
and will expire on July 2, 2001.

<PAGE> 12
The Company warrants products against defects for 90 days and has a policy
permitting the return of products within 30 days. Warranty costs and returns,
which are not significant, have historically been within management's
expectations. The Company has reserved approximately $118,000 at September 30,
1998 compared to $89,000 at March 31, 1998 for future returns and other
collection issues. The increase is due to greater revenue.
On July 31, 1998, the Company completed a private placement of 3,100 shares of
Series G Preferred Stock for $3,000,000. The Company believes that current cash
and operating revenues, combined with proceeds from the sale of debt and equity
securities during fiscal 1999, will be sufficient to allow the Company to
conduct its operations during the fiscal year that ends March 31, 1999.
Continuing operations thereafter will depend on cash flow from operations or the
Company's ability to raise additional funds through equity, debt, or other
financing. There can be no assurance, however, that such funds will be
available.
THE YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the
calendar year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or
engage in similar normal business activities.
The Company believes that it has no exposure to Year 2000 issues for the
products it has sold, as the products were designed with four digit year
recognition.
The Company has begun its assessment of its internal systems affected by the
Year 2000 Issue and anticipates that it will not be required to modify or
replace significant portions of its software so that its computer systems will
properly utilize dates past December 31, 1999.
The Company has initiated communications with its significant suppliers and
customers to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to those
third parties' failure to remediate their own Year 2000 Issue. There can be no
guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems
rely will be timely converted, or that a failure to convert by another company,
or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's systems, would not have
a material adverse effect on the Company.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In October 1997 and March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee
("AcSEC") issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2, "Software Revenue
Recognition" and SOP 98-4, "Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP
97-2, Software Revenue Recognition," respectively, which provide guidance on
applying generally accepted accounting principles in recognizing revenue on
software transactions and is effective for the Company's transactions entered
into subsequent to March 31, 1998. AcSEC is currently deliberating the potential
permanent deferral of certain provisions of SOP 97-2. The Company does not
believe that implementation of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-4 will have a material
adverse affect on expected revenues or earnings.
