NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial statements. These financial statements do not include all
disclosures associated with annual financial statements. Accordingly, these
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements
and notes thereto contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1995.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full
year.
(B) EARNINGS PER SHARE
-------------------
Earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Weighted
average common and common equivalent shares include common shares, stock options
and warrants using the treasury method.
Stock options and warrants granted with exercise prices below the
initial offering price during the twelve-month period preceding the initial
filing date of the offering have been included in the calculation of common
stock equivalents using the treasury stock method, assuming an offering price of
$5.00 per share, as if they were outstanding for all periods presented.
(C) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
--------------------------
Effective January 1, 1996, the Company and Safeguard Scientifics, Inc.
("Safeguard"), a stockholder of the Company, renewed an administrative services
agreement whereby Safeguard provides the Company with day-to-day business and
organizational strategy, legal, financial, investment management, merchant and
investment banking services. The agreement provides for the payment of an
administrative services fee of $30,000 per month and will expire on December 31,
1996, and will be renewable for one year terms thereafter by mutual agreement
between the parties.
In August 1995, Safeguard and the Company entered into an agreement
whereby the Company would lend to Safeguard a portion of its excess cash and
receive a negotiated interest rate which was higher than the rate the Company
might realize by independently investing the funds, but which was less than
Safeguard's cost of funds. The loan was fully repaid to the Company on March
8, 1996.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
- --------
USDATA Corporation (the "Company") provides a wide range of software
components, hardware systems and services, design, consulting, and maintenance
support used by its customers to improve the overall productivity of their
businesses and to monitor their automated processes. Specifically, the Company
produces automation software tools, marketed under the name FactoryLink(R), that
enable an organization's information systems to supervise, monitor and control
manufacturing and other automated processes and to interface with management
information systems (the "Software Operations"). The Company is also engaged in
the sale of automatic identification (auto ID) equipment, distributed management
software and related integration services that allow remote, real-time data
collection using a variety of automatic identification techniques (the "Systems
Operations").
The Company currently derives all of its net sales from the Software
Operations and the Systems Operations. The Software Operations' net sales are
generated substantially from licenses of the FactoryLink family of products and
also from related integration services, training classes and customer support
and service agreements, which are generally one-year, renewable contracts
entitling a customer to certain software upgrades and technical support.
Support and service revenue represented 4% and 3% of Software Operations' net
sales during the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1995, respectively.
The System Operations' net sales are generated from sales of third-party
automated data collection equipment and related repair and integration services.
In late 1994, the Company determined that in order to increase
awareness of its products, to accelerate growth, to obtain a larger share of a
rapidly growing market and to position the Company for future revenue growth, it
should substantially increase expenditures on sales, marketing and product
development. The Company increased spending in these areas throughout 1995 and
into the first quarter of 1996. As a result of these significant expenditures,
which include expenditures for the development and rollout of the Company's most
recent version of its FactoryLink software, FactoryLink-Enterprise Control
System (ECS), earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, were slightly lower
than the comparable period in 1995, even though the Company had a 6.1% increase
in revenue.
In the first quarter of 1996, the Company released FactoryLink ECS for
PC platforms and expects to release the product on UNIX platforms during the
second quarter of 1996. FactoryLink ECS represents a significant upgrade of
FactoryLink that adds important additional features, power and "ease of use" to
the Company's products. Consequently, the Company expects that net sales from
Software Operations will increase during 1996, and, as the Company's Software
Operations generally carry a higher gross profit margin than Systems Operations,
that its gross profit margins will improve. These statements are, of course,
forward-looking statements and may be adversely affected by a number of
important factors including market acceptance of the new product, the response
of the Company's competitors (e.g. price decreases, new product introductions),
the effectiveness of the Company's sales and marketing efforts and the
efficiency of the Company's distribution channels.

===============
</TABLE>
Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased 6.1%
compared to the same period in 1995. Software Operations, net sales for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased 13.4% compared to the same period in
1995. The increase is primarily a result of international sales growth,
increased sales leads from marketing and trade show activity, larger average
sales prices and the increased activity of new sales personnel. International
sales represented 49.8% of Software Operations sales for the quarter ended March
31, 1996, as compared to 47.3% the same quarter last year. Systems Operations,
net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 decreased 4.3% compared to the
same period in 1995. reflecting primarily slowdown in the overall hardware
reseller industry and the turnover of sales personnel in the quarter.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended March
31, 1996 improved to 75.1% compared to 73.9% in the comparable quarter of
1995. This is primarily due to the increased sales of the Company's software
products which carry higher gross profit margins than System Operations.

<PAGE>
USDATA CORPORATION
Selling expenses increased to 50.4% of net sales for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 compared to 43.0% in the comparable period in 1995. This
increase is a result of the Company's expenditures in sales seminars to promote
FactoryLink ECS, advertising, international and domestic trade shows, sales
collateral material, demonstration CD's, sales videos, travel and training
expenses for new salespeople.
As a percent of net sales, product development expenses for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 of 11.1% were slightly below the comparable period
of 1995, at 11.9% primarily the effect of increased net sales.
General and administrative expenses decreased to 9.4% of net sales for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to 9.9% in the comparable period in 1995,
as the Company leveraged its existing infrastructure to support the higher
sales.
The Company's interest income in 1996 is a result of investing the
proceeds of its public offering in July 1995. Interest expense in 1995 was a
result of a bank term loan which was paid off with the proceeds of the Company's
public offering.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Company's operating activities generated $1.3 million of cash
during the quarter ended March 31, 1996, primarily a result of a decrease in
outstanding accounts receivable. The Company's accounts receivable balance was
at a high level at the end of 1995 as a result of strong year-end sales volumes.
Management anticipates that capital expenditures for 1996 will be higher than
1995 due to computer system upgrades in the product development area and the
expansion of the corporate computer system and database. The outstanding
principal balance plus accrued interest due to the Company from Safeguard was
repaid in the first quarter of 1996.
The Company believes cash on hand and cash generated from operations
together with the existing bank line of credit will be sufficient to satisfy its
operating cash needs in 1996. In addition, the Company could consider seeking
additional public or private debt or equity financing or increased bank credit
lines to fund future growth opportunities.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
In January 1996 as previously announced, the Company entered into a
new master cooperation agreement with long-term partner AEG Schneider Automation
("ASA") during the first quarter of 1996. Under this agreement, ASA is expected
to expand its purchase and resale of the Company's FactoryLink product.
Although the new agreement will not obligate ASA to meet any minimum purchase
requirements, ASA will be entitled to certain volume discounts and other rights
if it meets the sales targets specified in the agreement. ASA will begin
purchasing products under the new agreement once the terms and conditions of
certain significant subagreements are finalized, which is expected to be during
the second quarter of 1996. ASA and its predecessors have been purchasing
products from the Company since 1989 and, for the year ended December 31, 1995,
accounted for $1,833,000 or 4% of total net sales. Purchases by ASA under the
new agreement are not expected to exceed 10% of total net sales.
