CONTINGENCIES In June 1993, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") commenced a formal investigation into possible violations of the Federal securities laws in connection with the Company's public reports and financial statements, as well as trading in the Company's securities. The SEC has issued a formal order of investigation which provides the SEC staff with the power to subpoena documents and to compel testimony in connection with their investigation. The Company is cooperating with this investigation. In March 1994, Security Life of Denver Insurance Company ("SLD") brought suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado alleging breach of a life insurance joint development contract, unfair trade practices, and fraud. SLD sought direct, indirect, consequential, and punitive damages in excess of $80 million. In February 1997 following a jury trial, the Court and jury entered judgments in favor of the Company against SLD on the claims of fraud and unfair trade practices. A verdict and judgment was returned against the Company for breach of contract and damages of $3.5 million, together with pre-judgment interest. In addition the jury found that SLD was using the Company's trade secrets without permission. As a result of post trial motions, the judgment was amended to delete the award of pre-judgment interest and SLD was ordered to return the Company's systems. Both the Company and SLD have appealed to the United States Court of Appeals. Changes in the status of this proceeding could result in a change in subsequent periods in the Company's estimate of anticipated liability for the estimated costs associated with these matters. The Company is also presently involved in litigation which commenced in January of 1996 in the Circuit Court in Greenville County, South Carolina with Liberty Life Insurance Company and certain of its affiliates ("Liberty") arising out of the parties' prior contractual relationship related to the development and licensing of Series III life insurance systems and the subsequent licensing of the Company's Cybertek life insurance systems. Liberty's complaint alleges breach of contract, breach of express and implied warranties, fraudulent inducement, breach of contract accompanied by a fraudulent act, and recission. Liberty has alleged actual and consequential damages of approximately $30 million and also seeks treble and punitive damages. The Company has asserted various affirmative defenses and is pursuing counterclaims against Liberty for breach of contract, recoupment, breach of good faith and fair dealing, and breach of contract accompanied by a fraudulent act. The Company is seeking equitable relief, including injunctive relief, and currently unspecified actual, compensatory and consequential damages. Based upon the allegations raised in a prior lawsuit and the SLD lawsuit, the Company's insurer, St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company ("St. Paul"),in June 1995 7 commenced a declaratory judgment action in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina against the Company to determine St. Paul's obligation for defense costs and to indemnify the Company for any payment related to these claims. The Company filed a counterclaim against St. Paul seeking to recover the Company's defense costs in both matters, coverage for damages, if any, awarded in those matters, and consequential and punitive damages. In connection with the dismissal of the prior lawsuit, St. Paul and the Company agreed to dismiss with prejudice all claims against each other with respect to the matter, and St. Paul agreed to reimburse the Company for the Company's legal fees. The action continues as to the parties claims related to insurance coverage for the SLD matter. In addition to the litigation described above, there are also various other litigation proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and is vigorously defending these matters. The Company is currently involved in a contract dispute with a customer over the terms and billings rates contained therein. The Company believes that the dispute will be resolved without any significant financial impact, however at the present time the maximum financial exposure is $1.5 million. While the resolution of any of the above matters could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations in future periods, the Company does not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position. The Company, however, is unable to predict the ultimate outcome or the potential financial impact of these matters. NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In February 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS 128"), was issued. FAS 128 is designed to improve the earnings per share information provided in financial statements by simplifying the existing computational guidelines, revising the disclosure requirements, and increasing the comparability of earnings per share data on an international basis. FAS 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods, earlier application is not permitted. The Company will adopt FAS 128 on its effective date. Proforma earnings per share of the Company computed using FAS 128 is not different from earnings per share computed using existing standards and guidelines. NOTE 3. RECLASSIFICATION Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. 8 POLICY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Part I of this report on Form 10-Q and with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Set forth below are certain operating items expressed as a percentage of revenues and the percent increase (decrease) for those items between the periods presented: Percent Percentage Increase of Revenues (Decrease) Three Months Three Months Ended March 31, Ended March 31, Revenues 1997 1996 1997 VS 1996 Licensing...................... 16.9% 18.2% 7.9% Services....................... 83.1 81.8 18.5 100.0 100.0 16.6 Operating expenses Cost of revenues Employee compensation and benefits................. 33.0 31.5 22.3 Computer & communication expenses..................... 5.5 6.0 6.8 Information services & data acquisition costs............ 19.6 21.0 8.8 Depreciation & amortization of property, equipment & capitalized software costs... 9.1 8.4 26.3 Other costs & expenses........ 5.3 5.0 26.2 Selling, general & administrative expenses...... 15.0 12.8 36.3 Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles............ 1.7 1.9 5.5 Litigation settlement and expenses, net................ - (.1) - Business acquisition charges... .1 (.1) - 89.3 86.4 20.5 Operating income................ 10.7 13.6 ( 8.3) Minority interest income........ .2 - Other income and expenses.......

Domestic life insurance initial licensing revenues increased 234.2% ($2.8 million) from first quarter 1996 to first quarter 1997. International initial licensing revenues increased slightly by 1.7%. This was offset by lower domestic property and casualty licensing revenues, as initial licensing revenues declined by $2.0 million from the first quarter of 1996 to the first quarter of 1997. Property and casualty licensing revenues in the United States are being impacted by various market factors including by many insurance companies focusing on their year 2000 projects and the need for certain "open" systems architectures in the Company's property and casualty products. The Company has initiatives underway to address these issues including a Windows release of Series III, and new releases of Insure 90, Point and Capsil and programs to assist prospective customers with near-term year 2000 solutions. Initial license charges for the first quarter of 1997 include right-to-use charges (licenses excluding further MESA obligations) of $1.2 million compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 1996. Initial license charges for the first quarter of 1997 also include termination charges (related to the buyout of monthly license charges) of $.2 million. Monthly license charges increased $1.0 million from the first quarter of 1996 to the first quarter of 1997. Domestic life insurance monthly license charges increased 44.2% ($.9 million) and international monthly license charges increased 27.6% ($.7 million). This increase is principally related to an increase in licensing activities due to the acquisition of Co-Cam in August 1996. These increases were offset by a decrease in domestic property and casualty insurance monthly license charges of 4.9% ($.5 million). 11 Because a significant portion of initial licensing revenues are recorded at the time new systems are licensed, there can be significant fluctuations in revenue from quarter to quarter. Set forth below is a comparison of initial license revenues for the current and preceding seven quarters expressed as a percentage of total revenues for each of the periods presented: 1997 1996 1995 1st 4th 3rd 2nd 1st 4th 3rd 2nd* (Dollars in Millions) Initial license revenues $11.3 $19.4 $10.1 $12.0 $10.4 $16.1 $11.3 $9.5 Total revenues 7.3% 11.8% 6.9% 8.8% 7.8% 11.6% 8.6% 7.1% <FN> *Excludes licensing activity of the Company's Health Insurance Systems business, sold June 30, 1995. Second quarter 1995 licensing revenues (initial and monthly licensing charges) related to the Health business were $.3 million. Three Three Months Ended Months Ended Services March 31,1997 March 31,1996 Change (Dollars In Millions) Professional and outsourcing... $ 87.3 $ 69.5 25.6 % Information.................... 40.2 38.8 3.6 Other.......................... 1.5 .6 166.7 $129.0 $108.9 18.5 % Percentage of revenues......... 83.1% 81.8% Domestic property and casualty professional and outsourcing services revenues increased 33.1% ($10.8 million) due to increases in implementation services and increases in processing volumes in the outsourcing areas related to new and existing customers. International property and casualty professional and outsourcing services revenues increased 13.5% ($3.6 million), principally due to services activity of Co-Cam, acquired August 1996 and increases in the volume of services provided to new and existing customers. The domestic life insurance professional and outsourcing services increased 33.0% ($3.4 million) from the first quarter 1996 to the 1997 first quarter, due principally to increased volumes of implementation services to new and existing domestic customers. 12 Information services revenues increased $1.1 million from the 1996 first quarter to the 1997 first quarter. This increase is due to an increase of $.2 million in life insurance information services principally comprised of attending physician statements and application processing services. Also contributing to this increase is an increase in property and casualty information services revenues of $.8 million which consists principally of fees for domestic motor vehicle reports. OPERATING EXPENSES Cost of Revenues Employee compensation and benefits increased 22.3% for the first quarter 1997 compared with the first quarter of 1996, principally the result of increased salaries and related costs associated with the acquisition of Co-Cam in August 1996, and increased costs associated with the growth in staffing for additional professional and outsourcing services. Compensation and benefits increased 61% ($5.9 million) internationally, while domestic increased 11.7% ($4.3 million). Computer and communications expenses increased 6.8%($.5 million) principally as a result of increased communications, data circuit and maintenance costs associated with the growth of the Company's domestic and international outsourcing operations. Information services and data acquisition costs increased 8.8%, due principally to increases of $1.8 million in property and casualty information costs arising from increased volume of motor vehicle reports and $.7 million in life insurance information services, arising from increased volume of attending physician statements. Depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and capitalized software costs increased 26.3%. This increase is principally due to higher amortization expense resulting from the March 1996 release of the latest version of CyberLife client/server life insurance software and the October 1996 release of the Company's property and casualty insurance Series III (Release 8) client/server software systems. In addition depreciation expense increased principally due to Company's increased investment in its information technology equipment. Other operating costs and expenses increased 26.2%. Fees related to the use of consultants and independent contractors increased, principally the result of training costs in new technologies and the satisfaction of staffing needs for certain development and services activities. These increases were offset by an increase in amounts capitalized principally related to the continued enhancement and development of the Company's Series III property and casualty insurance software, CyberLife life insurance software and Insure Plus international property and casualty software solution, and decreased costs associated with the depopulation of certain assigned risk polls serviced by the Company's total policy management business. Selling, general and administrative expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 36.3% for the first quarter 1997 compared with the first quarter of 1996, principally because of the Company's investment in its international sales force and infrastructure mainly as a result of the August 1996 acquisition of Co-Cam. However when compared to the fourth quarter of 1996 the increase was only 2.0%. 13 Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles The 5.5% increase in amortization of goodwill and other intangibles is principally the result of amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Co-Cam in August 1996. OPERATING INCOME First quarter 1997 operating income decreased 8.3% ($1.5 million) compared with the 1996 first quarter. This decline is largely the result of increased expenses in the international operations. International operating income decreased $4.0 million with revenues increasing by 12.6% and expenses increasing by 28.8% for the first quarter 1997 when compared to the same period in 1996. The decline has been caused by the current period increase in expenditures in the Company's international infrastructure, including its sales force, professional services organization and product development areas. The decline in the operating income in the international operations was offset in part by an increase in both domestic life and property and casualty insurance business operating income. Domestic life insurance operating income increased 79.5% and property and casualty insurance business increased 7.3%. OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE As a result of a higher average level of borrowed funds, principally borrowings under the Company's credit facilities, interest expense increased $.5 million. The average nominal interest rate applicable to borrowings under these facilities during the first quarter was 5.9%. INCOME TAXES The effective income tax rate (income taxes expressed as a percentage of pre-tax income) was 37.6% and 35.3% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The effective rate for the first quarter of 1997 is higher than the federal statutory rate principally due to the effect of state and local income taxes. 14 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES March 31, December 31, 1997 1996 Cash and equivalents, marketable (Dollars in Millions) securities, and investments.................... $ 18.6 $ 30.8 Current assets................................... 167.7 173.0 Current liabilities.............................. 106.4 112.6 Working capital.................................. 61.3 60.4 Long-term debt................................... 27.3 34.3 Three months ended March 31, March 31, 1997 1996 (Dollars in Millions) Cash provided by operations...................... $ 17.8 $ 16.0 Cash used for investing activities............... (21.9) (17.1) Cash used for financing activities............... (8.2) (14.7) The Company's current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) stood at 1.6 at March 31, 1997, which management believes is sufficient when combined with the available credit facilities to provide for day-to-day operating needs and the flexibility to take advantage of investment opportunities. The Company has available under its credit facilities (net of amounts outstanding at March 31, 1997) $77.0 million under its 364 day $100.0 million facility and $75.0 million under its 3 year $100.0 million facility, should management choose debt financing for any of the Company's operating, investing or financing activities. Also, the Company has available an uncommitted $10.0 million operating line of credit with which it may choose to fund temporary operating cash needs. Cash provided by operations increased $1.8 million from March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997. This increase was principally due to a smaller year over year reduction in accounts payable resulting from payments of amounts accrued during the quarter in the normal course of business. During the three months ended March 31, 1997 the Company capitalized software development costs of $14.4 million principally related to the development of its Series III client/server property and casualty software (including the incorporation of object-oriented technology and support for Microsoft Windows), CyberLife object-oriented client/server life insurance software, an Insure Plus international property and casualty solution as well as other ongoing projects for other domestic as well as international products. Significant expenditures anticipated for the remainder of 1997, excluding any possible business acquisitions or common share repurchases, are as follows: acquisition of data processing, communications equipment and office furniture, fixtures and equipment ($23.1 million); and costs relating to the internal development of software systems ($43.2 million). 15 The Company has historically used the cash generated from operations for the following: development and acquisition of new products, acquisition of businesses and repurchase of the Company's stock. The Company anticipates that it will continue to use its cash for all of these purposes in the future and that projected cash from operations, cash and investment reserves along with amounts available under the Company's debt facilities will be sufficient to meet presently anticipated operating needs and to accomplish specific objectives in these areas and for other general corporate purposes. FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS The Company's operating results and financial condition can be impacted by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following, any of which could cause actual results to vary materially from current and historical results or the Company's anticipated future results: - - Currently, the Company's business is focused principally within the global property and casualty and life insurance industries; - - There is increasing competition for the Company's products and services; - - The market for the Company's products and services is characterized by rapid changes in technology; - - Contracts with governmental agencies involve a variety of special risks, including the risk of early contract termination by the governmental agency and changes associated with newly elected state administrations or newly appointed regulators; - - The timing and amount of the Company's revenues are subject to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the timing of customers' decisions to enter into large license agreements with the Company; - - Unforeseen events or adverse economic or business trends may significantly increase cash demands beyond those currently anticipated or affect the Company's ability to generate/raise cash to satisfy financing needs; - - The Company's operations have not proven to be significantly seasonal, although quarterly revenues and net income could be expected to vary at times; - - Although the Company cannot accurately determine the amounts attributable thereto, the Company has been affected by inflation through increased costs of employee compensation and other operating expenses. - - Many of the Company's current and potential customers are or will spend significant amounts of money to make their existing information systems capable of handling the year 2000. 16 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in the status of certain matters or facts or circumstances underlying these estimates could result in material changes in these estimates, and actual results could differ from these estimates. Because of the foregoing factors, as well as other factors affecting the Company's operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.
