                            MYSOFTWARE COMPANY
                     NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheets, statements of 
operations, and statements of cash flows include all material adjustments 
necessary for their fair presentation. The interim results presented are not 
necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain reclassifications
have been made for consistent presentation. For further information, refer to 
the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB dated December 31, 1996.

2. Per Share Computation

Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and 
common equivalent shares outstanding during each period presented using the 
treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are not considered in the 
computation of net loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. 
Common stock equivalents consist of stock options. 

3.  Writeoff of Acquired In-Process Research and Development

The three months ended March 31, 1996 include a one-time write-off of $255,000 
resulting from the Company's acquisition of technology which had not reached 
technology feasibility from MediaTech Corporation, an Internet publishing tools
company.

4.  Recent Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS No. 128 requires
the presentation of basic earnings per share ("EPS") and, for companies with 
complex capital structures or potentially dilutive securities, such as 
convertible debt, options and warrants, diluted EPS. SFAS No. 128 is effective 
for annual and interim periods ending after December 31, 1997. Had SFAS No. 128 
been effective for the quarter ended March 31, 1997,  basic EPS and diluted EPS
would not have been significantly different from the reported net loss per 
share.

This discussion contains Forward Looking Statements, which are subject to 
certain risks and uncertainties, including without limitation those risks and 
uncertainties described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the 
year ended December 31, 1996, which has been filed with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased $299,000, or 
11 percent, to $3.0 million compared with net revenues of $2.7 million for the
corresponding quarter in 1996. The increase in net revenues primarily resulted 
from increased sales to retailers and distributors of the Company's existing
product titles.  During the quarter, the Company also benefited from sales of 
four new products that were introduced at the end of the fourth quarter of 1996.
These included MyMailManager, Jalapeno Hot Buttons, Jalapeno Hot Banners, and 
Pacifica Personal Web Page Builder.  

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 6 percent to 
$2.1 million, from $2.0 million in the same period in 1996.  Gross margin for 
the three months ended March 31, 1997 was 68.6 percent compared to 72.0 percent
for the same period in 1996.  The decrease in the gross margin percentage for 
the quarter was due to a change in the freight arrangements with certain 
customers and higher promotional expenses.  The Company's gross margins vary 
primarily due to changes in product mix, the timing and nature of promotional 
activities, changes in product return levels and the amortization of software 
production costs.

The Company's total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997
increased 9 percent to $2.7 million from $2.5 million for the same period of 
1996.  The increase in operating expenses resulted primarily from a continued 
investment in new product development and marketing as well as the costs 
associated with the Company building its infrastructure. Product Development 
expenses were up 13 percent at $520,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1997
compared to $460,000 in the same period of 1996.  Sales and Marketing expenses 
were up 20 percent at $1,683,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1997 
compared to $1,400,000 in the same period of 1996.  General and Administrative
expenses were up 31 percent at $529,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1997
compared to $403,000 in the same period of 1996.  Operating Expenses in the 
quarter ended March 31, 1996 included a one-time write-off of $255,000 of in-
process research and development resulting from the Company's acquisition of 
technology from MediaTech Corporation, an Internet publishing tools company.  

Operating loss was $667,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared
with an operating loss of $566,000 in the comparable period of 1996.

Interest income was $91,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, compared to 
$98,000 for the comparable period of 1996. The decrease in interest income was 
due to lower cash balances during the first quarter of 1997 compared to the 
first quarter of 1996. 

The Company reported no income tax benefit or expense for the three months ended
March 31, 1997, compared to an income tax benefit of $178,000 for the same 
quarter a year earlier. For further information, refer to the footnotes included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB dated December 31, 1996.

The resulting net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $576,000, 
compared to a net loss of $290,000 in the comparable period in 1996. 

The Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, significant 
fluctuations in operating results due to a variety of factors.  These factors 
include:  the size and rate of growth of the market for task-specific 
applications for small businesses and the Internet and of the software market in
general; market acceptance of the Company's products and those of its 
competitors; development and promotional expenses; product returns; changes in 
pricing policies  by the Company and its competitors; accuracy of retailers' 
forecasts of consumer demand; the timing of orders from major retailer and 
distributor customers; and cancellations or terminations by retail or 
distributor accounts; shelf space reductions; and delays in shipment.

The Company's business has experienced and is expected to continue to experience
significant seasonality, primarily due to retailer, distributor and end-user 
buying patterns.  Typically, net revenues are weakest in the second and third
quarters.  The Company expects its net revenues and operating results to 
continue to reflect seasonality.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since its inception, the Company has financed its activities almost exclusively 
from cash generated by operations and contributions to capital by its 
stockholders.  Except for its initial public offering in June, 1995, the 
Company has not sold stock since 1988. The Company has no debt.

As of March 31, 1997, the Company had $6.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company believes that its existing cash, ability to obtain additional 
credit, and cash generated by operations will be sufficient to meet its working 
capital needs at least through 1997.
