    Based on the criteria of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an
    Enterprise and Related Information," CSC has two reportable segments: the
    U.S. Federal Sector and the Global Commercial Sector.  The U.S. Federal
    Sector operates principally within a regulatory environment subject to
    governmental contracting and accounting requirements, including Federal
    Acquisition Regulations, Cost Accounting Standards and audits by various
    U.S. Federal agencies.  The U.S. Federal Sector revenues reported below
    will vary from U.S. Federal government revenue presented elsewhere in

(F) CSC adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
    Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
    Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" as of the first quarter
    of fiscal 2000.  This statement requires the capitalization of internal
    use computer software costs provided that certain criteria are met.  These
    capitalized software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over
    the useful life of the software.  The adoption of SOP 98-1 had no material
    impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
    operations or cash flows.

(G) In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
    SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
    Activities."  This statement requires all derivatives to be recorded on
    the balance sheet at fair value and establishes accounting standards for
    hedging activities.  In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, which
    amends SFAS No. 133 by deferring its effective date one year to fiscal
    years beginning after June 15, 2000.  The Company is currently assessing
    the impact this statement will have and, based on preliminary estimates,
    does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated
    financial position or results of operations.

(H) The special items result from merger-related charges and other transaction
    costs of $39.1 million ($28.5 million after tax) associated with the
    November 16, 1999 acquisition of Nichols Research Corporation (Nichols),
    and other costs, net of recoveries, of $2 million ($1.3 million after tax)
    associated with the resolution, during the quarter, of the remaining
    issues relating to the Company's fiscal 1998 response to a failed
    take-over attempt.  The Nichols charge is comprised of $9.3 million for
    investment banking and other transaction expenses; $23.5 million related
    to the write-off of capitalized software attributable to duplicate
    market offerings and the write-off of other assets and intangibles; and
    $6.3 million related to employee severance costs and elimination of
    duplicate facilities.  The involuntary termination benefits accrued
    and expensed were $5.1 million and related to 60 Nichols employees.  As of
    December 31, 1999, approximately $1.9 million had been paid.

(I) The financial information reported, which is not necessarily indicative
    of the results for a full year, is unaudited but includes all adjustments
    which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation.  All such
    adjustments are normal recurring adjustments.

(J) The results have been restated to reflect the acquisition of Nichols,
    which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.  The restatement
    includes Nichols' results for fiscal 1999, which ended August 31 and
    results for CSC's fiscal 1999, which ended April 2.  Therefore, the
    restated third quarter and nine months results for fiscal 1999 reflect
    Nichols' three months and nine months ended May 31, 1999.  The restated
    fiscal 2000 data include Nichols' results based on CSC's fiscal year.

              PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            Third Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 2000 versus
               Third Quarter and First Nine Months of Fiscal 1999

Revenues

During the third quarter ended December 31, 1999, the Company's total revenue
increased 14.9%, or $305.4 million, over the same period last year. The
Company's financial results have been restated and fiscal periods have been
realigned to reflect the merger with Nichols, which was accounted for as a
pooling of interests. Nichols' revenue of $100 million for the third quarter
of fiscal 2000 is compared to Nichols' revenue of $127 million for its fiscal
1999 third quarter ended May 1999.  As a result, a seasonally lower quarter
for Nichols is compared to its strongest quarter of the prior year.  Before
the pooling of interests, revenues for the third quarter were up 17.3%
compared with the prior-year period.

Global commercial sector revenues grew 17.3%, or $263.7 million over the same
quarter of last year.

U.S. Commercial revenue grew 10.4% or $83.5 million during the third quarter
of fiscal 2000 over the same period last year.  The growth was principally
generated from information technology outsourcing contracts.

European revenues grew $45.8 million or 7.5% during the third quarter.  The
growth was provided principally from increases in outsourcing activities,
consulting and systems integration activities and revenue generated by last
years acquisitions in Italy.  Revenue growth was negatively impacted by 2.5
percentage points due to the effect of European currency fluctuations.

Other international revenue for the third quarter grew 114.9% to $251.2
million.  The increase was the result of last year's fourth quarter
acquisition of Singapore-based CSA Holdings, Ltd. and further expansion of
CSC's Australian operations.

U.S. Federal sector revenue increased 7.5% or $39.7 million during the third
quarter.  Revenue gains were fueled by increases from civil agency and
Department of Defense business.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2000, the Company's total revenue
increased 16% or $939.1 million and the Company announced a total of $8.9
billion in new Global Commercial and Federal business awards.  The Company's
continued growth has created a broad, long-term global revenue base across
numerous customers, industries, geographic regions and service regions.

                          ======  ======    ======  ======   ======  ======


Comparing both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2000 and
fiscal 1999, total costs and expenses improved as a percentage of revenue.
Lower costs in selling, general and administrative expenses were partially
offset by increases in depreciation and amortization.

Lower selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue
were substantially related to lower costs due to efficiencies realized as a
result of last year's reorganization within the Federal sector and the
continued focus on aggressive cost containment given a period of dramatic
demand shifts for information technology services during the third quarter.
The increase in depreciation and amortization as a percentage of revenue was
principally due to additional assets associated with the Company's U.S.
outsourcing operations.

Special Items

The results for the third quarter ended December 31, 1999 include special
items of $41.1 million ($29.8 million after tax), or 18 cents per share
(diluted).  The special items result from merger-related charges and other
transaction costs of $39.1 million ($28.5 million after tax) associated with
the November 16,1999 acquisition of Nichols Research Corporation (Nichols),
and legal and other costs, net of recoveries, of $2 million ($1.3 million
after tax) associated with the resolution, during the quarter, of the
remaining issues relating to the Company's fiscal 1998 response to a failed
take-over attempt.  The Nichols charge is comprised of $9.3 million for
investment banking and other transaction expenses; $23.5 million related to
the write-off of capitalized software attributable to duplicate market
offerings and the write-off of other assets and intangibles; and $6.3 million
related to employee severance costs and elimination of duplicate facilities.



                                     11




Income Before Taxes

Due to the Company's revenue growth and improvements in operating performance,
income before special items and taxes increased $30.6 million to $168.9
million, up 22.1% over the same quarter last year.  The resulting margin
before special charges was 7.2% compared to 6.7% for last year's third quarter
and was 6.4% versus 6.0% for the nine months of fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999,
respectively.

Net Income

Earnings before special items were $112.2 million for the third quarter of
fiscal 2000, up $20.5 million, or 22.3% over last year's third quarter.  This
year's third quarter diluted earnings per share of 66 cents increased 20% over
last year's third quarter diluted earnings per share of 55 cents, excluding
this quarters special items of $29.8 million or 18 cents per share.  On a year
to date basis, diluted earnings per share before special items was $1.71, up
32 cents, or 23% over the same period for the prior year.

Cash Flows

Cash provided by operating activities was $493.2 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 1999, compared with $321.1 million during the same period
last year.  The increase of $172.1 million resulted from an increase in
earnings and non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses partially offset
by changes in working capital.

The Company's cash expenditures for investing activities totaled $805.7
million for the most recent nine months versus $542.7 million during the same
period of last year.  The increase principally relates to purchases of
outsourcing assets, property and equipment and acquisitions made in Italy,
Austria and the United States.

Cash used for financing activities was $50.3 million for the most recent nine
months versus cash provided by financing activities of $116.1 million for the
same period last year.  The change is due to repayment of the Company's $150
million 6.80% notes due April 1999 offset in part by other financing
activities.

Financial Condition

During the first nine months of fiscal 2000, the Company's capital outlays
included $759.7 million of business investments in the form of fixed asset
purchases, acquisitions and outsourcing contracts.  These investments as well
as the repayment of the Company's $150 million 6.80% notes due April 1999 were
funded from operating cash flows, additional borrowings and existing cash
balances, which decreased from $617.9 million to $239.4 million.  The
Company's debt-to-total capitalization ratio improved to 25.1% at December 31,
1999 from 27.9% at fiscal 1999 year end, principally due to the previously
mentioned debt repayment.

The Company has an option to require a subsidiary of Equifax Inc. to purchase
the Company's credit reporting business as further described in Note 11 of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 1999.  The exercise price of
this put option is equal to the appraised value of the business.

                                     12



It is management's opinion that the Company will be able to meet its liquidity
and cash needs for the foreseeable future through a combination of cash flows
from operating activities, cash balances, unused borrowing capacity and other
financing activities, including the issuance of debt and/or equity securities,
and/or the exercise of the put option described above.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" as of the first quarter of
fiscal 2000.  This statement requires the capitalization of internal use
computer software costs provided that certain criteria are met.  These
capitalized software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
useful life of the software.  The adoption of SOP 98-1 had no material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."  This statement requires all
derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and establishes
accounting standards for hedging activities.  In June 1999, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 137, which amends SFAS No. 133 by deferring its effective date one
year to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  The Company is currently
assessing the impact this statement will have and, based on preliminary
estimates, does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

The Company's transition to the year 2000 went smoothly, with only minor
incidents.  As a result, any future year 2000 issues will be addressed as part
of normal operations and will not be tracked or reported separately.

The Company's Year 2000 efforts did not have a material effect on its overall
financial position or results of operations.  The total fiscal 1999 and 2000
operating costs associated with making the Company's proprietary products,
systems and infrastructure Year 2000 ready, as well as costs for contingency
planning and monitoring, including the cost of Company personnel diverted to
internal Year 2000 assignments, was approximately $44 million.  In addition,
related capital expenditures for fiscal 1999 and 2000 were approximately $11
million.

Some of these capital expenditures represented equipment replacements that had
been accelerated due to Year 2000 issues.  The operating costs described above
were generally not incremental, but reflected the reallocation of existing
resources.  The Company did not defer any significant information technology
projects as a result of the Year 2000 efforts.
