                             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 six months ended June 30, 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, 1996. Had SFAS No. 128 been effective for the quarter and six 
month periods ended June 30, 1997,  basic EPS and diluted EPS would not have
been significantly different from the reported net loss per share.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996

Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased $518,000, or 
15 percent, to $2.9 million, compared with net revenues of $3.5 million for 
the corresponding quarter in 1996.  The decrease in net revenues resulted 
primarily from decreased sales of the Company's existing product titles to 
retailers and distributors due to sluggishness in the retail channel.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased 17 percent to 
$2.1 million, from $2.6 million in the same period in 1996.  Gross margin for
the second quarter was 72.4 percent, compared to 74.2 percent for the same 
period in 1996.  The decrease in the gross margin for the quarter was due to 
increased amortization of software production costs.  The Company's gross 
margins vary from period to period, 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 June 30, 
1997 increased 5 percent to $2.5 million, from $2.3 million for the same 
period of 1996. The increase in operating expenses resulted primarily from 
increased general and administrative costs as well as continued investment 
in new product development. 

Product development expenses were up 16 percent to $524,000 in the three 
months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $452,000 in the same period of 1996, 
reflecting the Company's efforts to develop new products for both its 
ProVenture and Pacifica brands.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased 6 percent to $1.4 million in the 
second quarter, from $1.5 million in the comparable 1996 quarter.  Sales and 
marketing expenses decreased principally as a result of lower market 
development funds accrued.

General and administrative expenses increased 33 percent to $558,000 in the 
three months ended 1997 from $421,000 in the same period of 1996, primarily 
as a result of greater occupancy costs and higher systems expenses. 

The Company had an operating loss of $334,000 for the three months ended 
June 30, 1997, compared with operating income of $232,000 in the comparable 
period of 1996. 

<PAGE>

Interest income was $80,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997, compared to 
$94,000 for the comparable period of 1996. The decrease in interest income 
was due to lower average cash balances during the 1997 quarter. 

The Company reported no income tax benefit or expense for the three months 
ended June 30, 1997, compared to an income tax expense of $124,000 for the 
same quarter a year earlier.  For further information, see 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 June 30, 1997 was $254,000,
compared to net income of $202,000 in the comparable period in 1996. 


Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, net revenues decreased $220,000, or 4
percent, to $5.9 million, compared with net revenues of $6.2 million for the 
corresponding period in 1996.  The decrease was primarily attributable to 
decreased sales of the Company's existing titles in the retail channel. 

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, gross profit decreased 7 percent to 
$4.2 million, from $4.5 million for the corresponding period in 1996.  Gross 
margin for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was 70.5 percent, compared to 
73.2 percent for the same period in 1996.  The decrease in gross margin for 
the quarter was due to increased amortization of software production costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, total operating expenses increased 7 
percent  to $5.2 million, from $4.8 million for the corresponding period in 
1996.  The six-month 1996 period 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.  

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, product development expenses were up 
14 percent to $1,044,000, compared to $912,000 for the corresponding period 
in 1996, reflecting the Company's efforts to develop new products for both 
its ProVenture and Pacifica brands.

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, sales and marketing expenses 
increased 7 percent to $3.1 million compared to $2.9 million for the 
corresponding period in 1996, primarily as a result of higher headcount and 
increased direct marketing expenses.  

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, general and administrative expenses 
increased 32 percent to $1,088,000, compared to $823,000 for the 
corresponding period in 1996.  The increase was attributable to greater 
occupancy costs and higher systems expenses. 

<PAGE>

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company reported an operating 
loss of $1,001,000 compared to an operating loss of $334,000 in the 
corresponding period in 1996.  

Interest income in the first half of 1997 was $171,000 compared to $193,000 
for the corresponding period in 1996. The decrease in interest income was due
to lower average cash balances in 1997.

The Company reported no income tax benefit or expense for the six months 
ended June 30, 1997, compared to an income tax benefit of $53,000 for the 
same period a year earlier.  For further information, see the footnotes 
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB dated December 31, 
1996.

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company reported a net loss of 
$830,000, compared to a net loss of $87,000 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, of 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 this 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 June 30, 1997, the Company had $6.0 million in cash and cash 
equivalents. The Company believes that its existing cash, its ability to 
obtain additional credit, and cash generated by operations will be sufficient
to meet its working capital needs at least through 1998.
