     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         JUNE 30, 1995

NOTE A --  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with
the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. 
Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 1995 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ending March 31, 1996.  For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in Computer Associates International, Inc.'s
(the "Registrant" or the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995.

Dividends:  In May 1995, the Company's Board of Directors
declared its regular, semi-annual cash dividend of $.10 per
share.  The dividend was paid on July 5, 1995 to stockholders
of record on June 20, 1995.

Net Income per Share:  Net income per share of Common Stock is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number
of common shares and any dilutive common share equivalents
outstanding.  Common share equivalents for the quarter ended
June 30, 1994 were excluded because of their anti-dilutive
effect.  Fully diluted net income per share is the same or not
materially different from net income per share.

Statements of Cash Flows:  For the three months ended June 30,
1995 and 1994, interest paid was $4.3 million and $2.2 million,
respectively, and income taxes paid were $35 million and $62
million, respectively.

                         JUNE 30, 1995
NOTE B --  ACQUISITIONS         

On June 22, 1994, the Company acquired 98% of the issued and
outstanding Common Stock of The ASK Group, Inc. ("ASK"), and on
September 20, 1994, merged ASK into one of its wholly owned
subsidiaries.  The aggregate cost of acquiring the Common Stock
of ASK was approximately $314 million.  The purchase price was
provided from existing cash balances and from a revolving credit
agreement with a group of banks.  ASK was primarily in the
business of developing, marketing and selling computer-based
relational database management systems, data access and
connectivity products, manufacturing and financial software
application tools and provided related consulting and support
services.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.  The
results of ASK's operations have been combined with those of the
Company since the date of acquisition.

In conjunction with the purchase of ASK, the Company recorded
an after-tax charge against earnings of $154 million relating
to the write-off of purchased research and development
technology that had not reached the working model stage and has
no alternative future use.  Had this charge not been taken
during the quarter ended June 30, 1994, net income for the
quarter ended June 30, 1994 would have been $69 million, or $.41
per share.

The following table reflects pro forma combined results of
operations (unaudited) of the Company and ASK on the basis that
the acquisitions had taken place and the related one-time
charge, noted above, was recorded at the beginning of the fiscal
year 1995:

   COMPUTER ASSOCIATES INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         JUNE 30, 1995


NOTE B --  ACQUISITIONS (continued)

In management's opinion, the pro forma combined results of
operations are not indicative of the actual results that would
have occurred had the acquisition been consummated at the
beginning of fiscal year 1995 or of future operations of the
combined companies under the ownership and operation of the
Company.

NOTE C - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On August 1, 1995, the Company, through its wholly owned
subsidiary, VR126, Inc., completed its tender offer for all of
the outstanding shares of Legent Corporation ("Legent") common
stock at a price of $47.95 per share in cash.  Approximately 98%
of the issued and outstanding shares, or 37.9 million shares,
were validly tendered.  The purchase price of these shares was
funded from the Company's general corporate funds and drawings
under its new $2 billion Credit Agreement dated as of July 24,
1995.  

Legent and VR126, Inc. will be merged as soon as practicable
after the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in, and
subject to the terms of, the Agreement and Plan of Merger among
Legent, VR126, Inc. and the Company, but in no event earlier
than November 6, 1995.  Once the pending merger becomes
effective, Legent will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company.  

The purchase price and associated charges will be allocated
among the identifiable tangible and intangible assets of Legent
based on their fair market value at the acquisition date under
the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. 
The costs of purchased research and development for that portion
of the acquired technology that has not reached the working
model stage and has no alternative future use will be written
off against the Company's earnings in its second quarter ending
September 30, 1995.  The after-tax charge against earnings is
initially projected to be approximately $800 million, or
approximately $5.00 per share.

On August 9, 1995, the Company declared a three-for-two split, in
the form of a stock dividend, of its outstanding common stock.  The
record date will be Monday, August 21, 1995 and the payment date will
be Tuesday, September 5, 1995.  There are currently approximately 
160,000,000 shares of CA common stock outstanding, and this number
will increase to approximately 240,000,000 shares by reason of the
stock split.  The Board also indicated that it anticipates that the
annual dividend will be $.14 per annum on a new share basis.  None of
the share or per share amounts presented herein reflect the split.

Item 2:

       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue:

Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 increased by
21%, or $101 million, over the prior year's comparable quarter. 
The growth was attributable to greater revenue derived from
licensing fees on the midrange platform and the continued
demand for enterprise licensing alternatives and less
restrictive pricing options.  The increase in midrange platform
revenue was led by the Company's pioneer UNIX-based systems
management product, CA-Unicenter.  Maintenance revenues
increased $10 million, or 6%, primarily due to the acquisition
of ASK.  Price changes did not have a material impact in either
quarter.

Costs and Expenses:

Selling, marketing and administrative expenses as a percentage
of total revenue for the June 1995 quarter decreased to 48%
from 53% for the June 1994 quarter.  The percentage reduction
reflects a higher revenue achievement without a proportionate
increase in total fixed and variable administrative costs.  Net
research and development expenditures increased $10 million, or
21%, over the June 1994 quarter.  The increase was the result
of continued support and enhancements of the ASK products, as
well as the focus on further enhancing client/server product
offerings.  Commissions and royalties as a percentage of
revenue for the June 1995 quarter increased slightly over the
prior year's comparable period.  The nominal percentage
increase is due to the ASK royalties not present in the June
1994 quarter.  Depreciation and amortization expense increased
$27 million in the June 1995 quarter over the June 1994
quarter, primarily due to the additional purchased software
product amortization associated with the ASK acquisition.  In
the June 1995 quarter, net interest expense increased by $2
million over the June 1994 quarter, as a result of higher debt
levels associated with borrowings used to finance the ASK
acquisition.

Item 2:  (Continued)

       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operating Margins:

Net income for the June 1995 quarter was $89 million, or $.53
per share, compared to a net loss of $86 million and a loss of
$.53 per share for the June 1994 quarter.  The net loss for the
June 1994 quarter reflects the $154 million after-tax charge
for the write-off of ASK purchased research and development
technology, that had not reached the working model stage and
had no alternative future use.  Excluding this charge, the pre-
tax income in the June 1994 quarter would have been $111
million compared to that of the June 1995 quarter ($140
million), a 26% increase.  The Company's consolidated effective
tax rate for the June 1995 quarter decreased to 37% from 38%
for the June 1994 quarter, primarily as a result of anticipated
increases in foreign tax credits.


Operations:

The Company has traditionally reported lower profit margins in
the first two quarters of each fiscal year than those
experienced in the third and fourth quarters.  As part of the
annual budget process, management establishes higher
discretionary expense levels in relation to projected revenue
for the first half of the year.  Historically, the Company's
combined third and fourth quarter revenues have been greater
than the first half of the year, as these two quarters coincide
with the clients' calendar year budget periods and the
culmination of the Company's annual sales plan.  These
historically higher second half revenues have resulted in
significantly higher profit margins since total expenses have
not increased in proportion to revenue.  However, past
financial performance may not be indicative of future
performance, particularly in view of the uncertainties
associated with integration of the Legent acquisition and the
personnel/infrastructure investments necessary to capitalize on
the ongoing migration to client server technology.

The Company's near term operating results may be affected by a
number of other factors, including, but not limited to:
uncertainties relative to global economic conditions; market
acceptance of competing technologies; the availability and cost
of new solutions; the Company's ability to successfully
maintain or increase market share in its core business while
expanding its product base into other markets; the strength of
its distribution channels; the Company's ability to manage
fixed and variable expense growth relative to revenue growth;
and the Company's ability to effectively integrate acquired
products and operations.

              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1995
decreased by approximately $50 million from the March 31, 1995
fiscal year end balance.  This decrease was primarily
attributable to expenditures of $135 million for repayment of
bank debt and $13 million for the purchase of Treasury Stock,
partially offset by approximately $100 million of cash
generated from operations.  At June 30, 1995, $105 million
remained drawn under the Company's $500 million revolving
credit agreement.

On May 25, 1995, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement providing for the acquisition of Legent for
approximately $1.8 billion.  In August 1995, the Company
financed the acquisition with cash and marketable securities,
as well as a portion of the new $2 billion credit facility
which replaced the existing $500 million facility.  The $2
billion facility is a five-year reducing revolving credit
agreement initially having a borrowing cost at LIBOR plus 5/8%. 
The agreement calls for the maintenance of certain financial
conditions and ratios.

At June 30, 1995, the total purchased under the Company's open
market Common Stock repurchase program was 16.3 million shares. 
Almost 9 million shares remain available for repurchase under
this program.  Previously, the Company had completed a 15
million share repurchase program, for a total of 31.3 million
shares purchased to date.

The Company's capital resource requirements as of the end of
June 30, 1995 consisted of lease obligations for office space,
computer equipment, mortgage or loan obligations and amounts
due as a result of product and company acquisitions including
the obligation to purchase Legent as outlined above.  It is
expected that existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term
marketable securities, the availability of borrowings under
committed and uncommitted credit lines, as well as cash
provided from operations, will be sufficient to meet
anticipated cash requirements.
