integral part of these products, generally without any direct human
intervention. The Company offers software that consists of a real-time operating
system and a series of modules and design tools that aid the development of
embedded applications. The Company's products are designed to enable users to
accelerate the design, development, debugging, implementation and maintenance of
embedded software. The Company's products and services reduce the expense
associated with embedded software and system development and enable customers to
develop systems that have greater functionality, enhanced performance, improved
reliability and ease of use. Integrated Systems markets and supports its
products and provides services on a worldwide basis to a variety of users in a
broad range of industries, including telecommunications and data communications,
automotive, multimedia and consumer and office and industrial automation.
Recently, the Company has introduced embedded operating software and design
tools for Internet applications.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

Embedded systems consist of a microprocessor and related software dedicated
to a specialized task or set of tasks and are found in many common products such
as telephones, automobiles, VCRs and facsimile machines. Many of these products
require real-time embedded systems that provide an immediate, predictable
response to unpredictable sequences of external events under severe deadlines.
For example, the embedded system that controls the engine in an automobile must
set airflow, fuel quantity, spark advance and other engine parameters for each
cycle within milliseconds based on engine speed, engine temperature, atmospheric
conditions and accelerator position in order to optimize fuel efficiency,
emissions control and responsiveness.

As more powerful microprocessors have become available and decreased in
price, the use of embedded systems are being used in or with a wider range of
applications. Today, embedded systems are found in telecommunications and data
communications products such as routers, access devices and switches; automotive
products such as engine controllers and anti-lock braking systems; multimedia
and consumer products such as digital video broadcast and security systems; and
office and industrial automation products such as printers, copiers and
point-of-sale terminals. Emerging embedded Internet applications for interactive
entertainment, network computers, remote maintenance and other areas may offer
significant new opportunities for embedded systems.

The development of applications software for embedded systems requires
software development tools and a real-time operating system. Real-time operating
systems and software development tools, including compilers, debuggers and
simulators, are used by developers to create applications software that enables
the embedded system to perform its required functions. Embedded systems are
increasingly based upon 32-bit microprocessors, which run significantly larger
and more sophisticated application software than embedded systems based upon
less powerful microprocessors. In addition, the cost of some 32-bit
microprocessors has decreased substantially to below $10, thereby opening new
markets for high-volume embedded applications that can now be cost justified. As
a result, 32-bit microprocessors represent the fastest growing segment of the
embedded microprocessor industry. The complexity and size of these new software
applications and the proliferation of multiple types of microprocessors require
a more substantial engineering effort, necessitating more sophisticated
development tools and real-time operating systems.

Developers of embedded systems are increasingly replacing internally
developed real-time operating systems with commercially available products as
organizations find in-house development and maintenance costly and a diversion
of core engineering resources. Also, developers of embedded systems often find
that in-

1
4

house real-time operating systems developed for a single project are not easily
ported to other microprocessors or scalable for different applications within
the organization, which increases development time and cost. As a result,
organizations are seeking to improve engineering productivity by standardizing
on third-party software in order to eliminate software incompatibilities and
reduce training and support costs. With productivity becoming a more strategic
issue, selection of tools and real-time operating system technology is
increasingly being evaluated by senior managers for division or company-wide
deployment. The Company believes that more organizations will need to replace
in-house tools with commercial products and to standardize on integrated
enterprise-wide solutions that are highly reliable, easily customizable and
scalable so that they can be used for simple as well as complex applications.

INTEGRATED SYSTEMS' SOLUTION

Integrated Systems provides comprehensive solutions for the development of
highly reliable and sophisticated embedded microprocessor-based applications.
The Company offers operating software that consists of a real-time system, the
pSOSystem, and a series of modules and design tools. The Company's products are

implementation and maintenance of embedded software and to develop systems that
have greater functionality, enhanced performance, improved reliability and ease
of use. The Company also offers a range of consulting services, including
product and system design, training in the use of the Company's products and
development of specialized application code or drivers for incorporation into
customers' applications. These services have allowed the Company to offer
customers complete designs based on the Company's products and have allowed more
rapid use of the Company's technology in customers' product designs. The
Company's solution is used in embedded applications in a broad range of
industries, including telecommunications and data communications, automotive,
multimedia and consumer and office and industrial automation. Recently, the
Company has introduced embedded operating software and design tools for Internet
applications. The solution offered by Integrated Systems provides the following
features and benefits:

High Reliability. The Company's pSOS+ operating system is highly reliable,
making it suitable for deeply embedded applications where human intervention to
remedy software operating problems is not feasible. High reliability reduces
maintenance costs and allows the Company's customers to develop sophisticated
mass market products based on Integrated Systems' solution.

Suitability For High Volume Applications. The Company offers a
full-featured high performance operating system with memory requirements as low
as 16 Kbytes. In addition, the Company's operating system is very efficient,
enabling the Company's customers to minimize hardware costs while increasing the
functionality of their application designs. The Company's solutions are suitable
for low-cost, high-volume applications because of their low memory and other
hardware requirements and for hand-held applications in which less complex
hardware conserves battery power.

Customability and Scalability. The Company's product architecture is
modular, scalable and readily customizable. As a result, the Company's solution
is used in a broad range of industries for a wide array of applications. In

Application-Specific Modules. The Company offers various application
specific modules that run on top of the Company's operating system and that
allow the operating software to be more easily targeted to specific applications
without degrading performance of the operating system.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

The Company's objective is to maintain its leadership position in the
telecommunications and data communications, automotive, multimedia and consumer
and office and industrial automation markets, and leverage its experience in
embedded applications to enter new markets, such as embedded Internet
applications, in which the Company believes it can establish a leadership
position. To achieve these objectives, the Company is pursuing the following
business strategy:

Maintain Technology Leadership. The Company's extensive expertise in
embedded software development tools and real-time operating systems has enabled
it to be a technology leader in the embedded software development market. The
Company seeks to capitalize on this existing technology base to accelerate the
development of new products that leverage the features of its existing product
line. The Company intends to maintain its technological leadership through rapid
response to emerging opportunities and customer requirements by continuing to
make significant investments in research and development and continuing to
enhance the architecture of its development tools and operating software.

Offer Comprehensive Solutions. The Company's products and services offer a
comprehensive solution to users of embedded microprocessors. This approach
simplifies customers' purchasing decisions, eliminates the need for customers to
integrate products from multiple sources, improves customer support, accelerates
the integration of the Company's technology into customers' products and allows
the Company's products to be used effectively by less experienced engineers. The
Company expects to continue to expand and refine its solution through internal
development activities and strategic acquisitions.

Maintain Market Focus. While the Company's products and services are
suitable for a wide variety of applications and are sold to a broad range of
customers, the Company has focused its development and marketing efforts on the
telecommunications and data communications, automotive, multimedia and consumer
and office and industrial automation markets. The Company has developed a
complete suite of products to address these markets in order to achieve deeper
penetration, as well as to provide products that reduce the time and expense
associated with system development. The Company seeks to participate in the
rapid growth of low-cost, high-volume applications for embedded systems through
run-time license arrangements with its customers based on the number of products
sold that incorporate the Company's products.

Address Emerging Market Opportunities. From time to time, the Company
evaluates strategic opportunities and applies its technology to develop products
for new markets more quickly. The Company recently introduced design tools and
operating software products for the embedded Internet market based in part on
technology obtained through recent acquisitions. The Company believes its
products and services are suitable for emerging markets because its products are
scalable, reliable and rapidly reconfigurable.

Focus on Large Accounts. Integrated Systems markets its software products
and engineering services to large customers to encourage them to use the
Company's products in multiple designs. This strategy has made it possible for
certain large customers to standardize on the Company's products. In addition,
it allows the Company to learn from large customers about future requirements
that the Company may incorporate into its products and services.

Portability and Support for Widely-Used Embedded Microprocessors and Host
Platforms. The Company has expended significant resources to make its products
available on a broad range of host platforms and 32-bit embedded
microprocessors. This has allowed the Company to sell into a broad range of
markets. Because large companies use a range of host platforms and
microprocessors, it also makes it possible for large customers to standardize on
Integrated Systems' solution.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

The Company offers three major families of products to support the embedded
software development market: real-time or embedded operating software, software
development tools and graphical design products.

Embedded Operating Software. Integrated Systems' embedded operating
software consists of the pSOS+ operating system and special purpose modules that
run on the pSOS+ operating system. The combination of real-time operating
software and development tools is marketed and licensed as pSOSystem. pSOS+ is a
priority-based, interrupt-oriented, multitasking operating system that is small
in size (requiring as little as 16 Kbytes of storage) and highly reliable and
efficient. Based on a scalable software component architecture, pSOS+ represents
a complete solution for advanced 32-bit embedded applications development and
run-time. The Company also offers a multiprocessing version, called pSOS+m, that
operates on tightly coupled or loosely coupled microprocessors. pSOS+ operating
system is currently available for the Motorola 68xxx, Intel x86 and i960, Power
PC, MIPS and Hitachi SH product families.

The special purpose modules that run on the pSOS+ operating system are used
to support development of pSOS+ application software, to debug embedded code and
to provide file support for embedded applications. The Company also offers X11
graphical user interface modules for embedded applications. In addition, the
Company offers a number of modules that address networking, telecommunications
and data communications, automotive, multimedia and consumer and embedded
Internet applications. These modules provide complete implementation of certain
aspects of the applications at which they are focused, which improves customers'
time to market and reliability. For example, the TCP/IP module offered by the
Company provides a complete implementation of the TCP/IP communication protocol.

Software Development Tools. The Company offers a broad line of tools to
support the development of embedded software applications. The Company's
development tools consist of an integrated development environment ("IDE"),
which provides sophisticated cross development frameworks, and individual tools
that are connected to these frameworks. The Company's IDE includes SNiFF+, which
is an advanced, object-oriented environment for the development of sophisticated
applications including the development of complex object-oriented desktop and
client-server applications. Individual tools offered by the Company include C
and C++ cross-compilers, source level debuggers, browsers, pSOS+ simulators and
profilers. The Company also offers a visual debugging and analysis tool called
ESp that graphically displays component configurations, memory stack usage and
errors, static and dynamic views of all kernel objects, user specified events
and CPU use graphs. The Company also offers IDE products and individual tools
that are licensed from third parties or that include technology licensed from
third parties. The Company's tools operate on Windows-based personal computers
and workstations manufactured by Sun Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard and IBM.

Graphical Design Products. The Company's graphical design product line,
called MATRIXx, includes control system engineering tools for analysis, design,
simulation and prototyping. Products and modules in the MATRIXx family include
the following:

--Xmath is a mathematically-based engineering analysis tool that
provides analysis capabilities, plot generation facilities and specialized
function libraries for control design, robust control, optimization,
digital signal processing, system identification and model reduction
applications.

--SystemBuild is a system modeling and simulation tool used to create
interactive, dynamic system models that include plant dynamics and
real-time software logic. SystemBuild includes a block diagram editor,
tools to create animated system simulations and state transition diagrams.
In addition, customers can order special purpose libraries for a variety of
needs, including fuzzy logic systems. The architecture of SystemBuild
allows the creation of application-specific libraries.

--AutoCode automatically generates programming code from SystemBuild
diagrams in the C or Ada languages. This accelerates application
development by relieving engineers of line-by-line programming and sharply
reducing programming errors committed as projects move from design analysis
to programming phrases.

--DocumentIt software further accelerates the design process by
automatically incorporating information about a design into a documentation
format.

--RealSim Series prototyping tools complete the family by providing
the software and real-time computing hardware to verify an application in
its intended environment. C or Ada code generated in the AutoCode
environment automatically loads and runs on RealSim Series hardware.

Embedded Internet Products. In January 1996, the Company announced the
availability of pSOSystem modules directed at embedded Internet applications.
The first two modules offered by the Company in its Embedded Internet family are
Java support for pSOSystem, which allows developers to build Internet
applications on pSOSystem, and an HTTP server based on pSOS+, which allows the
Company's operating software to be used for embedded Internet servers. For
example, one of the Company's customers has recently demonstrated a network
management capability for global networks based on the Company's product
providing Java support for pSOSystem. The Company has also recently introduced a
SNiFF+ design environment for Java that enables the development of both embedded
and desktop Java-based Internet applications. The Company expects to announce
additional Embedded Internet products during 1996.

Engineering Services. In addition to the products described above, the
Company offers engineering services to its customers. The Company's engineering
services group helps customers design and implement specific solutions typically
using tools provided by the Company. The Company provides engineering services
to develop close relationships with key customers, to accelerate acceptance of
advanced tools in the industry, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the
products, to learn more about specific systems and customer's development needs
and to work with the Company's product development group to incorporate
appropriate features into new versions of products or into new modules or
libraries. Engineering services projects can last from a few weeks to several
years and are generally performed on a time and materials basis.

SALES AND SUPPORT

The Company markets its products primarily through a direct sales force
augmented by a telemarketing organization, distributors and sales
representatives. The Company believes that use of a direct sales force allows
the Company to influence customer purchasing decisions, to provide superior
support to its customers and to understand better evolving customer needs. The
Company has significantly expanded the number of markets where it uses a direct
sales force and expects to continue to do so in the future.

The Company's direct sales organization in North America operates through
14 United States sales offices and a recently-opened subsidiary in Canada.
Direct sales managers are typically supported by field application engineers
that are experts in the Company's technology and products. In addition, a small
telemarketing organization focuses on selling maintenance and renewal contracts,
licensing lower-priced products and licensing to universities.

Sales internationally are supported by a direct sales force that operates
from subsidiaries based in France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, the United Kingdom,
Israel and Japan. In addition, the Company has sales and support offices in
Korea and India. The sales and support personnel in these subsidiaries and
offices are complemented by distributors and sales representatives that address
certain geographical areas, market segments or product families. Sales
representatives market and support the Company's products in Australia, China,
India, Korea, Taiwan and several other countries in Asia, while distributors
cover the rest of the world. The Company initiated direct selling operations in
Japan and Italy, replacing its existing third party distributor arrangements,
and implemented certain substantial changes to its direct sales operations in
Germany and France in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. These transitions may
result in a decline in the Company's sales in those countries during such
transition.

The Company's software development products are typically licensed on a
per-user basis. The Company's real-time operating systems and run-time packages
are also generally licensed for development on a per-user basis. Run-time
license fees are typically charged on a per-unit basis when the customer's
application is deployed. List prices for the Company's software development
tools and real-time operating systems

5
8

development licenses generally range from less than $4,000 to over $100,000,
with a typical development license averaging between $25,000 and $50,000.

Approximately 30%, 28% and 34% of the Company's total revenue was derived
from sales outside of North America in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
See Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has made
significant investments in developing its distribution and support channels
outside North America to increase the percentage of revenue derived from
international sales. There can be no assurance that changes from distribution
sales to direct sales or these additional investments will lead to increased
revenue. See "--Risk Factors--Risks Associated with International Operations."

CUSTOMERS AND APPLICATIONS

The Company markets its products to customers in a variety of industries,
with principal focus on telecommunications and data communications, automotive,
multimedia and consumer and office and industrial automation. Recently, the
Company has introduced embedded operating software and design tools for Internet
applications. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's
total revenue in fiscal 1995 or fiscal 1996.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

The Company's product development activities specifically address the needs
of the market segments upon which the Company focuses, offer customers open
cross-development capability and enhance the capabilities of current products
and modules to address user requirements. In addition, the Company seeks to port
the pSOSystem to additional microprocessors, make the pSOSystem suitable for
additional high-volume applications, add new products and modules to the
Company's product lines, create interfaces between the Company's products and
other key computer-aided design and software development tools and provide the
end user greater flexibility to integrate automatically-generated code with
manually-written code, thereby allowing the end user to accelerate application
development.

The Company attempts to release upgrades and to introduce new products or
modules on a regular basis. In connection with each release, the Company works
closely with its customers to define improvements and enhancements that are
incorporated into the next release of the product. This approach includes
customer feedback in the Company's product design process, as well as in the
evaluation stage, thereby permitting customers to influence functionality early
in the product's life-cycle. The Company believes that its engineering services
group provides the Company with a competitive advantage for product development
by defining needs for new products, guiding future enhancements and testing new
implementations. In addition, this group contracts with customers to research
new methodologies that can serve as prototypes for new features, products or
modules. As of February 28, 1996, the Company employed 127 engineers in the
product development group and 62 in the engineering services group. The
Company's engineers include experts in software engineering, software
development tools, multimedia, telecommunications, real-time controls and
operating systems technology.

For fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, the Company's research and development
expenses were approximately $5.9 million, $8.3 million and $11.4 million or 13%,
14% and 13% of its total revenue, respectively. The Company capitalizes certain
costs of developing computer software to be licensed or otherwise marketed to
customers in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise
Marketed" ("SFAS No. 86"). The Company capitalized approximately $1.1 million,
$492,000 and $335,000 of research and development expenses related to the
development of software products in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
The amounts capitalized represented approximately 16%, 6% and 3%, respectively,
of total research and development expenses for fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996. Such
capitalized costs are being amortized using the greater of the amount computed
using the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of
current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product, or on a
straight-line basis over three years. Amortization of capitalized cost for
fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996 was $160,000, $607,000 and $921,000, respectively.
The amount of research and development expenses capitalized in a given time
period depends upon the nature of the development performed and, accordingly,
amounts capitalized may vary from period to period.

The market for embedded applications is fragmented and is characterized by
ongoing technological developments, evolving industry standards and rapid
changes in customer requirements. The Company's success depends upon its ability
to continue to develop and introduce in a timely manner new products that take
advantage of technological advances, to continue to enhance its existing product
lines, to offer its products across a spectrum of microprocessor families used
in the embedded systems market and to respond promptly to customers'
requirements. The Company must continuously update its existing products to keep
them current with changing technology and must develop new products to take
advantage of new technologies that could render the Company's existing products
obsolete. The Company has in the past experienced delays in the development of
new products and the enhancement of existing products. Such delays are
commonplace in the software industry and are likely to be experienced by the
Company in the future. The Company's future prospects depend upon the Company's
ability to increase the functionality of existing products in a timely manner
and to develop new products that address new technologies and achieve market
acceptance. New products and enhancements must keep pace with competitive
offerings, adapt to evolving industry standards and provide additional
functionality. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
developing and marketing, on a timely basis or at all, competitive products,
product enhancements and new products that respond to technological change,
changes in customer requirements and emerging industry

8
11

standards, or that the Company's enhanced or new products will adequately
address the changing needs of the marketplace. The inability of the Company, due
to resource constraints or technological or other reasons, to develop and
introduce new products or product enhancements in a timely manner could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or
results of operations. From time to time, the Company or its competitors may
announce new products, capabilities or technologies that have the potential to
replace or shorten the life cycles of the Company's existing products. There can
be no assurance that announcements of currently planned or other new products
will not cause customers to defer purchasing existing Company products. Any
failure by the Company to anticipate or respond adequately to changing market
conditions, or any significant delays in product development or introduction,
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. Currently, the Company is expending
substantial time and financial resources to develop a product line for
applications that use Internet technology with embedded microprocessors. If the
Internet market, or any other new market targeted by the Company in the future,
fails to develop, develops more slowly than anticipated or becomes saturated
with competitors, or if the Company's products and services do not achieve or
sustain market acceptance, the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations would be materially adversely affected. See "-- Risk
Factors -- Risks Associated with New or Emerging Markets."

COMPETITION

The market for commercially available software tools and embedded operating
systems is fragmented and highly competitive and is characterized by pressures
to incorporate new features and accelerate the release of new product versions.
The Company's products compete with software developed internally by embedded
systems manufacturers and software offered by other third parties. Many
organizations that internally develop and maintain real-time operating systems
have substantial programming resources and can develop specific products for
their needs. Many of these companies have significant investments in their
existing software and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
persuade existing and potential customers to replace or augment their internally
developed real-time operating systems with the Company's products.

The Company's principal competitors for third-party embedded software
development and related tools (pSOSystem) are Mentor Graphics (through its
acquisition of Microtec Research Inc.), Microware Systems Corporation and Wind
River Systems, Inc. The MATRIXx product family competes with products offered by
Mathworks Incorporated and a number of other companies that provide design and
analysis, modeling and simulation, and code generation products. The Company
also competes with a number of other vendors that address one or more segments
of the system design process, including vendors that have modified general
purpose software engineering products for real-time and control design
applications.

As the industry continues to develop, the Company expects competition to
increase in the future from existing competitors and from other companies that
may enter the Company's existing or future markets with similar or substitute
solutions that may be less costly or provide better performance or functionality
than the Company's products. Some of the Company's existing and many of its
potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing
and sales resources than the Company and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to compete successfully against these companies. In the
event that price competition increases significantly, competitive pressures
could cause the Company to reduce the prices of its products, which would result
in reduced profit margins. Prolonged price competition would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. Also, run-time licenses, which provide for per-unit royalty payments
for each embedded system that incorporates the Company's real-time operating
systems, may be subject to significant pricing pressures. A variety of other
potential actions by the Company's competitors, including increased promotion
and accelerated introduction of new or enhanced products, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

The Company believes that the principal bases for a customer's decision to
license the Company's products are product functionality and performance, degree
of integration, ease of product use, quality of support services and corporate
reputation. The Company believes that it competes favorably in these areas.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

The Company's success is heavily dependent upon its proprietary technology.
To protect its proprietary rights, the Company relies on a combination of
copyright, trade secret, patent and trademark laws, nondisclosure and other
contractual restrictions on copying and distribution and technical measures. The
Company seeks to protect its software, documentation and other written materials
through trade secret and copyright laws, which provide only limited protection.
In addition, the Company holds two United States patents and has additional
United States patent applications pending. There can be no assurance that
patents held by the Company will not be challenged and invalidated, that patents
will issue from any of the Company's pending applications or that any claims
allowed from existing or pending patents will be of sufficient scope or strength
(or be issued in all countries where the Company's products can be sold) to
provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to the Company. As
part of its confidentiality procedures, the Company generally enters into
nondisclosure agreements with its employees, consultants, distributors and
corporate partners and limits access to and distribution of its software,
documentation and other proprietary information. End user licenses of the
Company's software are frequently in the form of shrink wrap license agreements
which are not signed by licensees, and therefore may be unenforceable under the
laws of many jurisdictions. The source code of the Company's products is also
protected as a trade secret and is generally not licensed to customers. Despite
the Company's efforts to protect its proprietary rights, it may be possible for
unauthorized third parties to copy the Company's products or to reverse engineer
or obtain and use information that the Company regards as proprietary. There can
be no assurance that the Company's competitors will not independently develop
technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to the Company's
technologies. Policing unauthorized use of the Company's products is difficult,
and while the Company is unable to determine the extent to which software piracy
of its products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent
problem. In addition, effective protection of intellectual property rights may
be unavailable or limited in certain countries. The status of United States
patent protection in the software industry is not well defined and will evolve
as the United States Patent and Trademark Office grants additional patents.
Patents have been granted on fundamental technologies in software, and patents
may issue that relate to fundamental technologies incorporated into the
Company's products.

As the number of patents, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual
property rights in the Company's industry increases, products based on its
technology may increasingly become the subject of infringement claims. There can
be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against
the Company in the future. Any such claims with or without merit could be time
consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require
the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or
licensing agreements, if required, might not be available on terms acceptable to
the Company, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition,
the Company may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for
infringement of the Company's proprietary rights or to establish the validity of
the Company's proprietary rights. Litigation to determine the validity of any
claims, whether or not such litigation is determined in favor of the Company,
could result in significant expense to the Company and divert the efforts of the
Company's technical and management personnel from productive tasks. In the event
of an adverse ruling in any such litigation, the Company might be required to
pay substantial damages, discontinue the use and sale of infringing products,
expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology or obtain
licenses to infringing technology. The failure of the Company to develop or
license a substitute technology could have a material adverse affect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company licenses certain software development tool products from other
companies to distribute with its own products. The inability of such third
parties to provide competitive products with adequate features and high quality
on a timely basis or to provide sales and marketing cooperation could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. In addition, the Company's products compete with products
produced by certain of the Company's licensors. There can be no assurance that,
upon the termination or expiration of these licenses, such licenses will be
available on reasonable terms or at all, or that similar products could be
obtained to substitute into the tool suites. The inability to license such
products could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

10
13

BACKLOG

The Company generally ships its products within 30 days after acceptance of
a customer purchase order and, therefore, has insignificant product backlog. The
insignificant product backlog makes it difficult to predict with accuracy
quarterly revenue and quarterly earnings prior to the end of a quarterly
reporting period. Engineering services backlog, consisting of orders for
engineering services scheduled to be performed within the following twelve
months, was approximately $2.1 million, $4.1 million and $7.2 million at
February 28, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Most of the contracts with the
Company's engineering services customers are terminable at the convenience of
the customer. Although the Company has not experienced any material
cancellations in the past, there can be no assurance that such cancellations
will not occur in the future.

EMPLOYEES

As of February 28, 1996, the Company employed 416 persons, including 155 in
marketing, sales and support services, 189 in engineering (62 in engineering
services and 127 in product development) and 72 in management, administration
and finance. Of these employees, 345 are located in the United States and 71 are
located at the Company's subsidiaries and sales offices outside of the United
States. In addition, from time to time the Company employs temporary employees
and consultants. None of the Company's employees is represented by a labor union
or is the subject of a collective bargaining agreement. The Company has never
experienced a work stoppage and believes that its employee relations are good.
The Company believes its future success will depend in large part upon its
ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, engineering, sales,
marketing and operations personnel, many of whom are in great demand.
Competition for such personnel has intensified dramatically over the last twelve
months in Santa Clara County, California, where the Company is headquartered,
and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting
and retaining such personnel. See "--Risk Factors--Dependence on Key Personnel;
Need for Additional Personnel."

RISK FACTORS

The statements contained in this Annual Report that are not purely
historical are forward looking statements, including statements regarding the
Company's expectations, hopes or intentions regarding the future. Actual results
could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are those
discussed below. In addition to the other information in this Annual Report, the
following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating the Company
and its business.

Fluctuations in Quarterly Results. The Company's quarterly operating
results vary significantly depending on a number of factors, including the
volume and timing of orders received during the quarter, the mix of and changes
in distribution channels through which the Company's products are sold, the
timing and acceptance of new products and product enhancements by the Company or
its competitors, changes in pricing, buyouts of run-time licenses, product life
cycles, the level of the Company's sales of third party products, purchasing
patterns of distributors and customers, competitive conditions in the industry,
business cycles affecting the markets in which the Company's products are sold,
extraordinary events, such as litigation or acquisitions, including related
charges, and economic conditions generally or in various geographic areas. All
of the foregoing factors are difficult to forecast. The future operating results
of the Company may fluctuate as a result of these and other factors, including
the Company's ability to continue to develop innovative and competitive
products.

The Company historically has operated with insignificant product backlog
because its products are generally shipped as orders are received. As a result,
product revenue in any quarter depends on the volume and timing of orders
received in that quarter. In addition, the Company has at times recognized a
substantial portion of its total revenue from sales booked and shipped in the
last two weeks of the quarter such that the magnitude of quarterly fluctuations
may not become evident until very late in, or after the end of, a particular
quarter. Because the Company's staffing and operating expenses are based on
anticipated total revenue levels, and a high percentage of the Company's costs
are fixed in the short term, small variations between anticipated orders and
actual orders, as well as non-recurring or large orders, can cause
disproportionate variations in the Company's operating results from quarter to
quarter.

The procurement process of the Company's customers typically ranges from a
few weeks to several months or longer from initial inquiry to order, making the
timing of sales and license fees difficult to predict. Moreover, as licensing of
the Company's products increasingly becomes a more strategic decision made at
higher management levels, there can be no assurance that sales cycles for the
Company's products will not lengthen. The Company's results of operations may
also be affected by seasonal trends. The Company's total revenue and net income
during the first fiscal quarter have been lower than the previous fourth fiscal
quarter for a variety of reasons, including customer purchase cycles related to
expiration of budgetary authorizations, and the Company expects that total
revenue and net income in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 will be lower than
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. In addition, in the first quarter of fiscal
1997, the Company shifted from third party distributors to direct sales and
support in Japan and Italy. In the past, the Company's sales declined in the
short term during such transitions. There can be no assurance that declines will
not occur during the current transitions or similar transitions in the future.
Also, the Company's recent acquisitions in fiscal 1996, as well as any future
acquisitions, involve numerous risks and could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The
Company expects to move its Santa Clara, California operations to Sunnyvale,
California by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1997. There can be no
assurance that the move will not disrupt the Company's operations or affect the
Company's operating results. Due to all of the foregoing factors, the Company
believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not
necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future
performance. It is likely that, in some future quarters, the Company's operating
results will be below the expectations of stock market analysts and investors.
In such event, the price of the Company's Common Stock would likely be
materially adversely affected. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Rapid Technological Change; Dependence on New Products. The market for
embedded applications is fragmented and is characterized by ongoing
technological developments, evolving industry standards and rapid changes in
customer requirements. The Company's success depends upon its ability to
continue to develop and introduce in a timely manner new products that take
advantage of technological advances, to continue to enhance its existing product
lines, to offer its products across a spectrum of microprocessor families used
in the embedded systems market and to respond promptly to customers'
requirements. The Company must continuously update its existing products to keep
them current with changing technology and must develop new products to take
advantage of new technologies that could render the Company's existing products
obsolete. The Company has in the past experienced delays in the development of
new products and the enhancement of existing products. Such delays are
commonplace in the software industry and are likely to be experienced by the
Company in the future. The Company's future prospects depend upon the Company's
ability to increase the functionality of existing products in a timely manner
and to develop new products that address new technologies and achieve market
acceptance. New products and enhancements must keep pace with competitive
offerings, adapt to evolving industry standards and provide additional
functionality. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
developing and marketing, on a timely basis or at all, competitive products,
product enhancements and new products that respond to technological change,
changes in customer requirements and emerging industry standards, or that the
Company's enhanced or new products will adequately address the changing needs of
the marketplace. The inability of the Company, due to resource constraints or
technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new products or product
enhancements in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. From time to
time, the Company or its competitors may announce new products, capabilities or
technologies that have the potential to replace or shorten the life cycles of
the Company's existing products. There can be no assurance that announcements of
currently planned or other new products will not cause customers to defer
purchasing existing Company products. Any failure by the Company to anticipate
or respond adequately to changing market conditions, or any significant delays
in product development or introduction, would have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See
"Business--Product Development."

Risks Associated with New or Emerging Markets. From time to time, the
Company embarks on product development for new or emerging markets. Currently,
the Company is expending substantial time and financial resources to develop a
product line for applications that use Internet technology with embedded
microprocessors. The Company has introduced both embedded operating software and
development tools for Internet applications. The commercial Internet market has
only recently begun to develop, is rapidly changing and is characterized by an
increasing number of new entrants with competitive products. It is difficult to
predict with any assurance whether the Internet will prove to be a viable
commercial marketplace, or whether demand for Internet related products and
services will emerge or increase in the future. If the Internet market, or any
other new market targeted by the Company in the future, fails to develop,
develops more slowly than anticipated or becomes saturated with competitors, or
if the Company's products and services do not achieve or sustain market
acceptance, the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations would be materially adversely affected. See "Business--Product
Development."

Competition. The market for commercially available software tools and
embedded operating systems is fragmented and highly competitive and is
characterized by pressures to incorporate new features and accelerate the
release of new product versions. The Company's products compete with software
developed internally by embedded systems manufacturers and software offered by
other third parties. Many organizations that internally develop and maintain
real-time operating systems have substantial programming resources and can
develop specific products for their needs. Many of these companies have
significant investments in their existing software and there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to persuade existing and potential customers to
replace or augment their internally developed real-time operating systems with
the Company's products. The Company's principal competitors for third-party
embedded software development and related tools (pSOSystem) are Mentor Graphics
(through its acquisition of Microtec Research Inc.), Microware Systems
Corporation and Wind River Systems, Inc. The MATRIXx product family competes
with products offered by Mathworks Incorporated and a number of other companies
that provide design and analysis, modeling and simulation, and code generation
products. The Company also

13
16

competes with a number of other vendors that address one or more segments of the
system design process, including vendors that have modified general purpose
software engineering products for real-time and control design applications.

Acquisition-Related Risks. The Company completed a number of acquisitions
in fiscal 1996 and may complete additional acquisitions in the future. The
process of integrating an acquired company's business into the Company's
operations may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and
may absorb significant management attention that would otherwise be available
for the ongoing development of the Company's business. Moreover, there can be no
assurance that the anticipated benefits of an acquisition will be realized.
Future acquisitions by the Company could result in potentially dilutive
issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent
liabilities and amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible
assets, which could materially adversely affect the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations. In addition, acquisitions involve
numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the operations,
technologies and products of the acquired companies, difficulties in managing
diverse geographic sales and research and development operations, the diversion
of management attention from other business concerns, risks of entering markets
in which the Company has no or limited direct prior experience and the potential
loss of key employees of the acquired company. The inability of the Company's
management to respond to changing business conditions effectively, including the
changes associated with its recent acquisitions, could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
From time to time, the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of businesses,
products or technologies. The Company has no present understandings, commitments
or agreements with respect to any material acquisition of other businesses,
products or technologies, and no material acquisition is currently being pursued
actively. In the event that such an acquisition were to occur, however, there
can be no assurance that the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition would not be materially adversely affected. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Risks Associated with International Operations. In fiscal 1994, 1995 and
1996, the Company derived approximately 30%, 28% and 34%, respectively, of its
total revenue from sales outside of North America. The Company expects that
international sales will continue to generate a significant percentage of its
total revenue in the foreseeable future. The Company expects to continue to make
substantial investments in its international operations and to increase its
direct sales force in Europe and Asia. There can be no assurance that these
increases will result in commensurate increases in the Company's international
sales. In addition, international operations are subject to a number of special
risks, including foreign government regulation, more prevalent software piracy,
longer payment cycles, unexpected changes in, or imposition of, regulatory
requirements, tariffs, import and export restrictions and other barriers and
restrictions, greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection, potentially
adverse tax consequences, the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign
laws, staffing and managing foreign operations, general geopolitical risks, such
as political and economic instability, hostilities with neighboring countries
and changes in diplomatic and trade relationships,

14
17

possible recessionary environments in economies outside the United States and
other factors beyond the control of the Company. The Company generally
denominates sales to and by foreign subsidiaries in local currency, and an
increase in the relative value of the dollar against such currencies, as has
recently occurred, would reduce the Company's revenue in dollar terms or make
the Company's products more expensive and, therefore, potentially less
competitive in foreign markets. The Company has little experience in hedging its
foreign currency sales and often does not hedge such sales. There can be no
assurance that the Company's future results of operations will not be adversely
affected by currency fluctuations. The Company relies on distributors for sales
of its products in certain foreign countries and, accordingly, is dependent on
their ability to promote and support the Company's products and, in some cases,
to translate them into foreign languages. The Company's international
distributors generally offer products of several different companies, including
in some cases products that are competitive with the Company's products, and
such distributors are not subject to any minimum purchase or resale
requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company's international
distributors will continue to purchase the Company's products or provide them
with adequate levels of support. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Risks of Product Defects; Product and Other Liability. As a result of
their complexity, software products may contain undetected errors or
compatibility issues, particularly when first introduced or as new versions are
released. There can be no assurance that, despite testing by the Company and
testing and use by current and potential customers, errors will not be found in
new products after commencement of commercial shipments. The occurrence of such
errors could result in loss of or delay in market acceptance of the Company's
products, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations. The increasing use of the
Company's products for applications in systems that interact directly with the
general public, particularly applications in transportation, medical systems and
other markets where the failure of the embedded system could cause substantial
property damage or personal injury, could expose the Company to significant
product liability claims. In addition, the Company's products are used for
applications in mission-critical business systems where the failure of the
embedded system could be linked to substantial economic loss. The Company's
license and other agreements with its customers typically contain provisions
designed to limit the Company's exposure to potential product liability and
other claims. It is likely, however, that the limitation of liability provisions
contained in the Company's agreements are not effective in all circumstances and
in all jurisdictions. Although the Company has not experienced any product
liability or economic loss claims to date, the sale and support of the Company's
products may entail the risk of such claims. The Company currently does not have
insurance against product liability risks or errors or omissions coverage and
there can be no assurance that such insurance will be available to the Company
on commercially reasonable terms or at all. A product liability claim or claim
for economic loss brought against the Company, or a product recall involving the
Company's software, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business--Product
Development."

Dependence on Key Personnel; Need for Additional Personnel. The Company's
future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued
contributions of its key management, product development, sales, marketing and
operations personnel. The Company does not have employment agreements with any
of its key personnel and does not maintain any key person life insurance
policies. In addition, the Company believes its future success will also depend
in large part upon its ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial,
engineering, sales, marketing and operations personnel, many of whom are in
great demand. Competition for such personnel has intensified dramatically over
the last twelve months in Santa Clara County, California, where the Company is
headquartered, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful
in attracting and retaining such personnel. The failure of the Company to
attract, assimilate and retain the necessary personnel could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. See "Business--Employees."

Limited Protection of Proprietary Technology. The Company's success is
heavily dependent upon its proprietary technology. To protect its proprietary
rights, the Company relies on a combination of copyright, trade secret, patent
and trademark laws, nondisclosure and other contractual restrictions on copying
and distribution and technical measures. The Company seeks to protect its
software, documentation and other written materials through trade secret and
copyright laws, which provide only limited protection. In addition,

15
18

the Company holds two United States patents and has additional United States
patent applications pending. There can be no assurance that patents held by the
Company will not be challenged and invalidated, that patents will issue from any
of the Company's pending applications or that any claims allowed from existing
or pending patents will be of sufficient scope or strength (or be issued in all
countries where the Company's products can be sold) to provide meaningful
protection or any commercial advantage to the Company. As part of its
confidentiality procedures, the Company generally enters into nondisclosure
agreements with its employees, consultants, distributors and corporate partners
and limits access to and distribution of its software, documentation and other
proprietary information. End user licenses of the Company's software are
frequently in the form of shrink wrap license agreements, which are not signed
by licensees, and therefore may be unenforceable under the laws of many
jurisdictions. The source code of the Company's products is also protected as a
trade secret and is generally not licensed to customers. Despite the Company's
efforts to protect its proprietary rights, it may be possible for unauthorized
third parties to copy the Company's products or to reverse engineer or obtain
and use information that the Company regards as proprietary. There can be no
assurance that the Company's competitors will not independently develop
technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to the Company's
technologies. Policing unauthorized use of the Company's products is difficult,
and while the Company is unable to determine the extent to which software piracy
of its products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent
problem. In addition, effective protection of intellectual property rights may
be unavailable or limited in certain countries. The status of United States
patent protection in the software industry is not well defined and will evolve
as the United States Patent and Trademark Office grants additional patents.
Patents have been granted on fundamental technologies in software, and patents
may issue that relate to fundamental technologies incorporated into the
Company's products.

As the number of patents, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual
property rights in the Company's industry increases, products based on its
technology may increasingly become the subject of infringement claims. There can
be no assurance that third parties will not assert infringement claims against
the Company in the future. Any such claims with or without merit could be time
consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require
the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or
licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to
the Company, or at all, which could have a material adverse affect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition,
the Company may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for
infringement of the Company's proprietary rights or to establish the validity of
the Company's proprietary rights. Litigation to determine the validity of any
claims, whether or not such litigation is determined in favor of the Company,
could result in significant expense to the Company and divert the efforts of the
Company's technical and management personnel from productive tasks. In the event
of an adverse ruling in any such litigation, the Company may be required to pay
substantial damages, discontinue the use and sale of infringing products, expend
significant resources to develop non-infringing technology or obtain licenses to
infringing technology. The failure of the Company to develop or license a
substitute technology could have a material adverse affect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. See
"Business--Proprietary Rights."

Dependence on Licenses from Third Parties. The Company licenses certain
software development tool products from other companies to distribute with its
own products. The inability of such third parties to provide competitive
products with adequate features and high quality on a timely basis or to
cooperate in sales and marketing activities could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In
addition, the Company's products compete with products produced by certain of
the Company's licensors. There can be no assurance that, upon the termination or
expiration of these licenses, such licenses will be available on reasonable
terms or at all, or that similar products could be obtained to substitute into
the tool suites. The inability to license such products could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Volatility of Stock Price. The prices for the Company's Common Stock have
fluctuated widely in the past. The management of the Company believes that such
fluctuations may have been caused by actual or anticipated variations in the
Company's operating results, announcements of technical innovations or new
products or services by the Company or its competitors, changes in earnings
estimates by securities analysts

16
19

and other factors, including changes in conditions of the software and other
technology industries in general. Stock markets have experienced extreme price
volatility in recent years. This volatility has had a substantial effect on the
market prices of securities issued by the Company and other high technology
companies, often for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of the
specific companies. The trading prices of many high technology companies'
stocks, including the stock of the Company, are at or near their historical
highs and reflect price/earnings ratios substantially above historical norms.
There can be no assurance that the trading price of the Company's stock will
remain at or near its current level. In the past, following periods of
volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class
action litigation has often been instituted against such a company. Such
litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of
management attention and resources, which would have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations even if
the Company is successful in such suits. These market fluctuations, as well as
general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, may
adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The Company's principal offices are located in two buildings in Santa
Clara, California covering approximately 60,000 square feet. The Company
occupies this space under lease agreements that expire in September 1996. The
annual base rental payment for this space (not including operating expenses,
insurance, property taxes and assessment) is approximately $700,000. The Company
also leases a number of additional offices in North America, Europe, Asia and
Israel.

In March 1996, the Company purchased for approximately $12.0 million in
cash a building in Sunnyvale, California covering approximately 150,000 square
feet. By the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company expects to
move its operations to this space from the two buildings in Santa Clara and
terminate its obligations under the lease agreements. The Company will occupy
approximately 100,000 square feet of this facility and lease the remaining space
for approximately two years. There can be no assurance that the move will not
disrupt the Company's operations or affect the Company's operating results over
the near term.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is not a party to any litigation other than ordinary routine
litigation incidental to the business.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

Not applicable.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company's financial
condition and results of operations, and should be read in conjunction with the
"Selected Consolidated Financial Data" and the Note thereto and the Consolidated
Financial Statements and the Notes thereto of the Company.

OVERVIEW

Integrated Systems designs, develops, markets and supports software
products for embedded microprocessor-based applications and provides related
engineering services. The Company currently derives substantially all of its
revenues from licensing of these products and providing related maintenance and
engineering and consulting services. The Company's revenue has grown steadily
through increased licensing of existing and new products and through
acquisitions, and its net income, excluding acquisition and other charges has
also grown steadily. In October 1995, the Company acquired TakeFive Software
GmbH ("TakeFive"), an Austrian corporation in the business of developing and
marketing software tools used in software development, including SNiFF+, an
advanced object-oriented integrated development environment. In January 1996,
the Company completed a merger with Doctor Design, Inc. ("Doctor Design"), a
California corporation that develops multimedia hardware, software and
application specific integrated circuit technology. Each of these business
combinations has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and the results of
operations for fiscal 1996 include the results of TakeFive and Doctor Design for
the whole year. The fiscal 1994 and 1995 results have been restated to include
only the results of Doctor Design, since those of TakeFive were not significant
in those years. See "Business -- Risk Factors--Acquisition-Related Risks."

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION IS SUBJECT TO RISK AND UNCERTAINTY

Certain statements in the financial discussion and analysis by management
contain "forward-looking" information (as defined in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involve risk and uncertainty, including
projections for fiscal 1997 and various business environment and trends
projections. Actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on
a variety of factors, including the volume and timing of orders received during
the quarter, the mix of and changes in distribution channels through which the
Company's products are sold, the timing and acceptance of new products and
product enhancements by the Company or its competitors, changes in pricing,
buyouts of run-time licenses, product life cycles, the level of the Company's
sales of third party products, purchasing patterns of distributors and
customers, competitive conditions in the industry, business cycles affecting the
markets in which the Company's products are sold, extraordinary events, such as
litigation or acquisitions, including related charges, and economic conditions
generally or in various geographic areas. All of the foregoing factors are
difficult to forecast. The future operating results of the Company may fluctuate
as a result of these and the other risk factors detailed from time-to-time in
the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission reports and in the section of
this Annual Report entitled "Business -- Risk Factors."

Due to all of the foregoing factors, the Company believes that
period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
It is likely that, in some future quarters, the Company's operating results will
be below the expectations of stock market analysts and investors. In such event,
the price of the Company's Common Stock would likely be materially adversely
affected. Consequently, the purchase or holding of the Company's Common Stock
involves a high degree of risk.

- ------------------------------
(1) The table excludes acquisition and other costs of $7.3 million, including
related tax effects, in 1996 since inclusion of such costs would render
year-to-year comparisons less meaningful.

Revenue. The Company's total revenue increased 27% from $45.8 million in
fiscal 1994 to $58.1 million in fiscal 1995 and an additional 45% to $84.4
million in fiscal 1996. A majority of the Company's total revenue came from
product revenue, which increased 33% from $26.4 million in fiscal 1994 to $35.0
million in fiscal 1995 and an additional 48% to $51.6 million in fiscal 1996.
The increase in product revenue from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995 was primarily
due to increased unit shipments of pSOSystem and new products. The increase in
product revenue from fiscal 1995 to fiscal 1996 was due primarily to increased
unit shipments of pSOSystem and MATRIXx and the inclusion of SNiFF+ product
revenue in fiscal 1996. pSOSystem revenue increased between both comparison
periods as a result of increased unit volume in all geographic regions and the
introduction of new products. MATRIXx revenue was flat from fiscal 1994 to
fiscal 1995 as domestic growth was offset by a decline in international revenue
due, in part, to the transition from independent sales representatives to direct
sales and support organizations in Europe. MATRIXx revenue grew from fiscal 1995
to fiscal 1996 due to increased unit shipments and the introduction of new
products. Services revenue increased 19% from $19.4 million in fiscal 1994 to
$23.1 million in fiscal 1995 and an additional 42% to $32.8 million in fiscal
1996. These increases were the result of increases in the number and size of
consulting contracts and increases in maintenance revenue from the Company's
growing installed base of customers.

The percentage of the Company's total revenue from customers located
internationally was 30%, 28% and 34% in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. The Company expects international revenue will continue to grow as
a percentage of total revenue.

23
26

Costs and Expenses. The Company's cost of product revenue as a percentage
of product revenue was 19%, 17% and 18% in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. These fluctuations are due primarily to changes in the mix of
product revenue derived from the sale of higher margin products. The Company's
cost of services revenue as a percentage of services revenue was 43%, 41% and
48% in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Fluctuations in these
percentages result from shifts in service revenue mix between higher margin
maintenance revenue and lower margin consulting contract revenue.

Marketing and sales expenses were $16.5 million, $20.6 million and $27.2
million in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, representing 36%, 36% and
32%, respectively of total revenue. The dollar increases were primarily due to
additional expenses associated with the Company's continued expansion of its
marketing and sales organization both domestically and overseas. The percentage
decrease from fiscal 1995 to fiscal 1996 was the result of pooling the operating
results of several acquired companies whose marketing and sales expenses had
represented a smaller percentage of their total revenue. The Company anticipates
that marketing and sales expenses will increase in fiscal 1997 as a percentage
of total revenue as the Company invests in infrastructure to support certain
acquired products and to continue its expansion into new geographical areas.

Research and development expenses were $5.9 million, $8.3 million and $11.4
million in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, representing 13%, 14% and
13%, respectively, of total revenue. These dollar increases were primarily the
result of increased activity associated with bringing several products to
market, including increased personnel and consulting expenses, and a decrease in
software cost capitalization. Costs that are required to be capitalized under
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed" ("SFAS No. 86") were
$335,000 in fiscal 1996 compared to $492,000 in fiscal 1995 and $1.1 million in
fiscal 1994. The amount capitalized represents approximately 3% of total
research and development expenditures for fiscal 1996 compared to 6% for fiscal
1995 and 16% for fiscal 1994. The amount of research and development
expenditures capitalized in a given time period depends upon the nature of the
development performed and, accordingly, amounts capitalized may vary from period
to period. Capitalized costs are being amortized using the greater of the amount
computed using the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear the
total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product, or on a
straight-line basis over three years. Amortization for fiscal 1996 was $921,000,
compared to $607,000 for fiscal 1995 and $160,000 for fiscal 1994.

General and administrative expenses were $3.6 million, $4.3 million and
$6.6 million in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, representing 8%, 7%
and 8%, respectively, of total revenue. These dollar increases were primarily
the result of increased headcount, related in part to the acquisitions of Doctor
Design and TakeFive.

Amortization of intangible assets was $1.8 million, $1.3 million and
$556,000 in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. These dollar amounts
declined as the Company reached the end of the amortization period for software
purchased in an earlier acquisition.

Acquisition and other costs in fiscal 1996 totaled $7.3 million and
comprised direct costs related to the acquisitions of TakeFive and Doctor
Design, the write-off of intangible assets related to a prior acquisition whose
product offering will be replaced by the use of other products, costs associated
with the acquisition of certain technology and related assets to enhance
pSOSystem product offerings, and costs related to the termination of a
distributor relationship in Japan. See Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Interest and other income was $1.3 million, $1.6 million and $2.3 million
in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Interest and other income increased
due to an increase in the amount of cash equivalents and marketable securities
and to higher interest rates.

The effective tax rate was 40% in fiscal 1996 compared to 32% in both
fiscal 1995 and fiscal 1994. The increase in the effective rate is due to the
effect of non-deductible acquisition and other costs. After adjusting for such
items, the effective rate for fiscal 1996 is 32%.

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA

The following tables set forth selected unaudited quarterly financial data
for the Company's fiscal year ended February 28, 1996. The unaudited information
has been prepared on the same basis as the audited information and, in the
opinion of management, reflects all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the information
for the periods presented. Based on the Company's operating history and factors
that may cause fluctuations in the quarterly results, quarter-to-quarter
comparisons should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

(1) The table excludes acquisition and other costs, including the related tax
effects, since inclusion of such costs would render the comparison less
meaningful.

The Company's quarterly operating results vary significantly depending on a
number of factors, including the volume and timing of orders received during the
quarter, the mix of and changes in distribution channels through which the
Company's products are sold, the timing and acceptance of new products and
product enhancements by the Company or its competitors, changes in pricing,
buyouts of run-time licenses, product life cycles, the level of the Company's
sales of third party products, purchasing patterns of distributors and
customers, competitive conditions in the industry, business cycles affecting the
markets in which the Company's products are sold, extraordinary events, such as
litigation or acquisitions, including related charges, and economic conditions
generally or in various geographic areas. All of the foregoing factors are
difficult to forecast. The future operating results of the Company may fluctuate
as a result of these and other factors, including the Company's ability to
continue to develop innovative and competitive products.

26
29

revenue and net income during the first fiscal quarter have been lower than the
previous fourth fiscal quarter for a variety of reasons, including customer
purchase cycles related to expiration of budgetary authorizations, and the
Company expects that total revenue and net income in the first quarter of fiscal
1997 will be lower than the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. In addition, in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company shifted from third party distributors
to direct sales and support in Japan and Italy. In the past, the Company's sales
declined in the short term during such transitions. There can be no assurance
that declines will not occur during the current transitions or similar
transitions in the future. Also, the Company's recent acquisitions in fiscal
1996, as well as any future acquisitions, involve numerous risks and could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. The Company expects to move its Santa Clara, California
operations to Sunnyvale, California by the end of the first quarter of fiscal
1997. There can be no assurance that the move will not disrupt the Company's
operations or affect the Company's operating results. Due to all of the
foregoing factors, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its
results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied
upon as an indication of future performance. It is likely that, in some future
quarters, the Company's operating results will be below the expectations of
stock market analysts and investors. In such event, the price of the Company's
Common Stock would likely be materially adversely affected.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

During March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (SFAS No. 121), which requires the Company
to review for impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles
and goodwill related to those assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In certain
situations, an impairment loss would be recognized. SFAS No. 121 will be
effective for the Company's fiscal year 1997. The Company has studied the
implications of the statement, and, based on its initial evaluation, does not
expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

During October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" (SFAS No. 123). This accounting standard permits the use of either
a fair value based method or the current Accounting Principals Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB No. 25) when accounting for
stock-based compensation arrangements. Companies that do not follow the new fair
value based method will be required to disclose pro forma net income and
earnings per share computed as if the fair value based method had been applied.
The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995. Management has not determined whether it will
adopt the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation
arrangements nor the impact of SFAS No. 123 on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has funded its operations to date principally through cash
flows from operations. As of February 28, 1996, the Company had $49.5 million of
cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. This represents an increase of
$13.0 million from February 28, 1995. During the first quarter of fiscal 1995,
the Company announced that the Board of Directors had authorized the Company to
repurchase up to an additional 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock for cash, from
time-to-time at market prices, pursuant to a repurchase program announced in
September 1992. In the second quarter of fiscal 1995, under this program, the
Company repurchased 250,000 shares of Common Stock for $1.1 million. The Company
believes that cash flows from operations, together with existing cash balances,
available borrowings and the proceeds from this offering, will be adequate to
meet the Company's cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures
and stock repurchases for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Net cash provided by operating activities during fiscal 1996 totaled $18.5
million, an increase of $10.7 million over the amount generated in fiscal 1995
which increased by $293,000 over fiscal 1994. The increase in net cash provided
by operating activities in fiscal 1996 was due to increases in depreciation and
amortization,

27
30

current liabilities, income taxes payable and deferred revenue were offset by
increases in accounts receivable and other current assets.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $6.0 million in fiscal 1996
compared to $9.3 million in fiscal 1995 and $7.0 million in fiscal 1994. The
decrease in net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 1996 was due
primarily to the reduction in net purchases of marketable securities, offset by
increases in additions to property and equipment and net cash paid in
acquisitions. The increase in net cash used in investing activities in fiscal
1995 was due primarily to the acquisition of the FlexOS product line and an
increase in expenditures for property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.6 million in fiscal
1996 compared to $961,000 in fiscal 1995 and $674,000 in fiscal 1994. The
increase in net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 1996 was due to
an increase in proceeds from the exercise of options to purchase Common Stock
and purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the absence of Common
Stock repurchases. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities in
fiscal 1995 was due to an increase in proceeds from the exercise of options to
purchase Common Stock and purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan,
offset by the repurchase of 250,000 shares of Common Stock.

After the end of fiscal 1996, in March 1996, the Company purchased a
building, which will become its principal facility, for cash of approximately
$12.0 million. The Company expects the move to this new facility to be completed
by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA

The following table sets forth selected unaudited quarterly financial data

opinion, reflects all adjustments (which include only normal recurring

periods presented. Based on the Company's operating history and factors that may
cause fluctuations in the quarterly results, quarter-to-quarter comparisons
should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Integrated Systems, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Integrated
Systems, Inc. as of February 28, 1995 and 1996 and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended February 28, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Integrated Systems, Inc. as of February 28, 1995 and 1996, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended February 28, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Integrated Systems, Inc. (the Company) designs, develops, markets and
supports software products for embedded microprocessor-based applications and
also provides related engineering services. Embedded microprocessors are used to
add functionality and intelligence to a variety of products and to operate as an
integral part of these products, generally without any direct human
intervention. The Company offers software that consists of a real-time operating
system and a series of modules and design tools that aid the development of
embedded applications. The Company markets and supports its products and
provides services on a worldwide basis to a variety of users in a broad range of
industries, including telecommunications and data communications, automotive,
multimedia and consumer, and office and industrial automation, as well as in the
embedded Internet market, through a direct sales force augmented by a
telemarketing organization, distributors and sales representatives.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Integrated
Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in affiliated
companies that are not controlled are carried at cost plus the Company's equity
in undistributed earnings since acquisition (see Note 2).

USE OF ESTIMATES

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 dates of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents, which are held at a variety of financial
institutions, include demand deposits, money market accounts and all highly
liquid debt instruments with an original or remaining maturity at the date of
purchase of three months or less. The Company has not experienced any material
losses relating to any investment instruments.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The amounts reported for cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities are considered to approximate fair values based
upon comparable market information available at February 28, 1996. Based upon
interest rates available to the Company for debt with comparable maturities, the
carrying values of the Company's notes payable approximate fair values. The fair
values of the Company's marketable securities are set forth in Note 3.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risks comprise, principally, cash, cash equivalents,
investments and trade accounts receivable. The Company invests its excess cash
in government securities, tax exempt municipal securities, preferred stock,
Eurodollar notes and bonds, time deposits, certificates of deposit, commercial
paper rated Aa or better and other specific money market and corporate
instruments of similar liquidity and credit quality. The Company performs
ongoing evaluations of its customers' financial condition and does not require
collateral. The Company maintains allowances for potential credit losses and
such losses have been within management's expectations.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
MARKETABLE SECURITIES

All marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and
therefore are carried at fair value. Marketable securities classified as current
assets have scheduled maturities of less than one year, while marketable
securities classified as noncurrent assets have scheduled maturities of more
than one year. Unrealized holding gains and losses on such securities are
reported net of related taxes as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
Realized gains and losses on sales of all such securities are reported in
interest and other income and computed using the specific identification cost
method.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Product Revenue

Product revenue consists principally of revenue from product licensing
fees. Product licensing fees, including advanced production royalty payments,
are generally recognized when a customer purchase order has been received, a
license agreement has been executed, the software has been shipped, remaining
obligations are insignificant and collection of the resulting account receivable
is probable. Generally, the Company's distributors do not have the right of
return. Provisions for estimated product returns, warranty costs and
insignificant vendor obligations are recorded at the time products are shipped.

Services Revenue

Services revenue consists principally of maintenance and renewal fees for
providing product updates, technical support and related services for software
products, and engineering and consulting services fees. Software maintenance
revenue bundled with the initial product license revenue is deferred and
recognized ratably over the related service period. The Company unbundles a
portion of its initial product license revenue related to software maintenance
revenue based upon product license renewal amounts, which are substantially less
than the initial product license fee, or based upon the amount charged for such
services when they are sold separately. License renewal fees, which are
substantially less than the initial license, are deferred and recognized ratably
over the license term. Revenue from separately sold maintenance contracts is
recognized ratably over the related service period. Engineering and consulting
services revenue from short-term and long-term contracts is generally recognized
on the percentage-of-completion method. For cost reimbursement and firm fixed
price contracts, revenues are recognized as the work is performed, based on the
ratio of incurred costs to estimated total completion costs. For
time-and-material contracts, revenues are recognized on the basis of direct
labor hours and other direct costs incurred. Provisions for anticipated losses
are made in the period in which they first become determinable.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective
assets (three to twenty years). Leasehold improvements are amortized over the
lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company capitalizes certain costs to develop computer software to be
licensed or otherwise marketed to customers. Such costs are amortized using the
greater of the amount computed using the ratio that current gross revenues for a
product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for
that product, or on a straight-line basis over three years. Software development
costs included in intangible assets at February 28, 1995 and 1996, were
$1,763,000 and $1,177,000, respectively, net of accumulated

39
42

INTEGRATED SYSTEMS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
amortization of $822,000 and $1,743,000, respectively. Capitalized software
development costs were $1,132,000, $492,000 and $335,000 in fiscal 1994, 1995
and 1996, respectively. Amortization, which is included in cost of product
revenue, was $160,000, $607,000 and $921,000 in fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, purchased software and
capitalized software development costs. Goodwill and purchased software are
amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The
Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of these costs based upon
estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the related products and
businesses acquired.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's provision for income taxes is comprised of its current tax
liability and the change in its deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are
expected to reverse.

ADVERTISING

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising
expense for fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996 was $409,000, $800,000 and $927,000,
respectively.

COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent
shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options that have a
dilutive effect when applying the treasury stock method.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The Company's foreign subsidiaries that operate as sales and marketing
offices for the Company's products, translate their financial statements using
the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Accordingly, foreign exchange gains
and losses, which have been insignificant, are included in the consolidated
statements of income. The Company's remaining foreign subsidiaries use the local
currency as the functional currency. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities are
recorded at year-end exchange rates and income and expenses are recorded at
average rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation have been
insignificant.

FISCAL YEAR

Prior to fiscal 1996, the Company's fiscal year was reported on a 52/53
week period ending on the last Saturday in February of each year. Beginning in
fiscal 1996, the Company's fiscal year end is the last day in February.
Accordingly, the fiscal year end for fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996 was February 26,
25 and 29, respectively. The effect of this change was not material to the
Company's financial statements for the year ended February 29, 1996. For clarity
of presentation herein, all fiscal years are referred to as ending on February
28.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

During March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (SFAS No. 121), which requires the Company
to review for impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles
and goodwill related to those assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In certain
situations, an impairment loss would be recognized. SFAS No. 121 will be
effective for the Company's fiscal year 1997. The Company has studied the
implications of the statement and, based on its initial evaluation, does not
expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

During October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" (SFAS No. 123). This accounting standard permits the use of either
a fair value based method or the current Accounting Principals Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB No. 25) when accounting for
stock-based compensation arrangements. Companies that do not follow the new fair
value based method will be required to disclose pro forma net income and
earnings per share computed as if the fair value based method had been applied.
The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995. Management has not determined if it will
adopt the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation
arrangements nor the impact of SFAS No. 123 on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

2. ACQUISITIONS

MERGER WITH TAKEFIVE

In October 1995, the Company acquired TakeFive Software GmbH (TakeFive), an
Austrian corporation by issuing 871,980 shares of its common stock in exchange
for 97% of the shares of TakeFive. The remaining 3% of the shares of TakeFive
were purchased for cash. The business combination was accounted for as a pooling
of interests and the Company's results of operations for fiscal 1996 include
those of TakeFive. The prior years' results have not been restated to include
TakeFive operations as such operations were insignificant. Prior to the business
combination, TakeFive was in the business of developing, marketing and
supporting software tools used in software development. The Company intends to
continue the business of TakeFive and operate TakeFive as an independent
subsidiary.

MERGER WITH DOCTOR DESIGN

In January 1996, the Company acquired Doctor Design, Inc. (Doctor Design),
an engineering services company specializing in multimedia hardware, software
and application specific integrated circuit technology. The Company issued
743,214 shares of its common stock for substantially all the outstanding stock
of Doctor Design. The Company also assumed stock options that converted into
options to purchase 263,724 shares of the Company's common stock. The business
combination was accounted for as a pooling of interests and the consolidated
financial statements have been restated as if Doctor Design had been combined
for all periods presented. The Company intends to continue the business of
Doctor Design and operate Doctor Design as an independent subsidiary.

OTHER ACQUISITIONS

In September 1994, the Company acquired certain software products and other
assets for a total purchase price of approximately $3,467,000, consisting of
$2,081,000 in cash and non-cash consideration of approximately 316,000 shares of
restricted common stock with a value of approximately $1,386,000. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and
accordingly, its operations have been included with those of the Company since
the date of acquisition. Substantially all of the purchase price was allocated
to purchased software, which prior to the third quarter of fiscal 1996, was
being amortized on a straight-line basis over a seven-year period. During the
third quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company determined that the recoverability of
the purchased software was not probable as the products purchased would be
replaced by the products acquired in the merger with TakeFive. Accordingly,
capitalized purchased software totaling $3,083,000 was charged to acquisition
and other expenses in the consolidated statement of income.

In December 1995, the Company acquired certain technology, related assets
and all of the outstanding common stock of a company for $1,735,000. The
acquisition has been accounted for under the equity method of accounting and is
included in other assets in the accompanying balance sheet. The acquisition cost
exceeded the underlying equity in net assets by $1,395,000, of which $756,000,
$425,000 and $214,000 was allocated to existing software products, which had
reached technological feasibility, goodwill and in-process software development,
which had not reached technological feasibility, respectively, based on their
respective fair values. The costs allocated to goodwill and existing products
are being amortized over periods of five and two years, respectively, and the
costs allocated to in-process software development were charged to acquisition
and other expenses. In addition to the purchase price, the Company paid bonuses
to non-shareholder management and employees totaling $1,645,000, which were
expensed and are included as part of acquisition and other expenses in the
consolidated statement of income for fiscal 1996. The operations of the acquired
company are not material to the consolidated financial statements of the
Company, and accordingly, separate financial information for this company has
not been presented.

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

At February 28, 1996, the Company had reserved a total of 1,000,000 shares
of common stock for issuance under its 1990 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
ESPP). The purpose of the ESPP is to provide eligible employees of the Company
with a means of acquiring common stock of the Company through payroll
deductions. The purchase price of such stock under the ESPP cannot be less than
85% of the lower of the fair market value on the specified purchase date or the
beginning of the offering period. During fiscal 1994, 1995 and 1996,
approximately 120,000 shares, 94,000 shares and 72,000 shares, respectively,
were sold through the ESPP.

8. 401(K) PLANS

The Company has two 401(k) Plans (the Plans), including a plan resulting
from the business combination with Doctor Design (see Note 2), that cover
essentially all employees. Each eligible employee may elect to contribute to the
Plans, through payroll deductions, up to 15% of their compensation, subject to
certain limitations. The Company is obligated to make matching contributions on
behalf of each participating employee in an amount equal to 25% of an employee's
contribution, up to 2% of the employee's compensation.
