included herein have been prepared by Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation
(the "Company") in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles and

amended  and  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  Company's  consolidated
financial  statements (and notes thereto)  included in the Company's 2000 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments
considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the  accompanying  condensed
consolidated financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of

the Company invested approximately $2,000 in Questra Corporation,  an e-business
consulting  firm  headquartered  in  Rochester,  New York,  in return for a 5.8%

agreement  with IMS Health.  Total costs in connection  with these services were
approximately  $220 and $71 for the  six-month  periods  ended June 30, 2001 and
2000, respectively.

     Other  related  party  disclosures  are included in Note 6 to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 5 - ADOPTION OF STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In July 1999, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 137,  "Accounting for
Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of the FASB Statement No. 133, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No.
137 defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133, which establishes  accounting and
reporting  standards for  derivative  instruments  embedded in other  contracts,
(collectively  referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.  SFAS No.
133  requires  that an entity  recognize  all  derivatives  as either  assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value.  If certain  conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated  as (a) a hedge of the  exposure  to  changes  in the fair value of a
recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of
the exposure to variability in cash flows  attributable to a particular risk, or
(c) a hedge of the foreign  currency  exposure of a net  investment in a foreign
operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available for sale security and a
forecasted transaction.  In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting
for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities,  an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 133", which amends certain  provisions of SFAS No. 133. As
a result of SFAS No.  137,  the  Company  has  implemented  SFAS No. 133 and the
corresponding  amendments of SFAS No. 138 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31,
2001.  There was no  material  impact on the  Company's  results of  operations,
financial   position   or  cash  flows  as  a  result  of   adoption   of  these
pronouncements.

     In July 2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 141,  "Business  Combinations"  and
SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets".  SFAS No. 141 requires companies
to account for acquisitions  entered into after June 30, 2001 using the purchase
method and  establishes  criteria  to be used in  determining  whether  acquired
intangible assets are to be recorded separately from goodwill. This criterion is
to be applied to business  combinations  completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No.
142 sets forth the  accounting  for  goodwill  and  intangible  assets after the
completion


                                     - 6 -


of a business acquisition.  Goodwill will no longer be amortized, rather, tested
for impairment by comparing the asset's fair value to its carrying  value.  SFAS
No. 142 is effective January 1, 2002.  Management is in the process of analyzing
and assessing the impact of the adoption of these statements.

NOTE 7 - CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

     As of June 30, 2001 the Company has entered into fixed capital  commitments
related to its India development  center expansion program of approximately $7.7
million.  The multi-phase program will encompass the construction of three fully
owned development centers containing  approximately  600,000 sq. ft. of space in
Pune, Chennai and Calcutta.  Total costs related to this program are expected to
be approximately $32.6 million, of which $3.5 million has been spent to date.

     The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions  arising in the
ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of management,  the outcome of such
claims  and legal  actions,  if decided  adversely,  is not  expected  to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's  quarterly or annual operating results,
cash  flows,  or  consolidated  financial  position.  Additionally,  many of the
Company's  engagements  involve  projects that are critical to the operations of
its customers' business and provide benefits that are difficult to quantify. Any
failure in a customer's  computer system could result in a claim for substantial
damages against the Company, regardless of the Company's responsibility for such
failure.  Although the Company attempts to contractually limit its liability for
damages arising from negligent acts, errors, mistakes, or omissions in rendering
its software  development  and maintenance  services,  there can be no assurance
that the limitations of liability set forth in its contracts will be enforceable
in all  instances  or will  otherwise  protect the Company  from  liability  for
damages.   Although  the  Company  has  general  liability  insurance  coverage,
including coverage for errors or omissions,  there can be no assurance that such
coverage will continue to be available on reasonable  terms or will be available
in  sufficient  amounts to cover one or more large  claims,  or that the insurer
will not disclaim  coverage as to any future claim. The successful  assertion of
one or more large  claims  against the Company that exceed  available  insurance
coverage  or changes in the  Company's  insurance  policies,  including  premium
increases or the imposition of large  deductible or  co-insurance  requirements,
could have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  business,  results of
operations and financial condition.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF  RESULTS OF  OPERATIONS  AND
          FINANCIAL CONDITION.

GENERAL

     The  Company  delivers  high-quality,   cost-effective,   full  life  cycle
solutions  to  complex  software   development  and  maintenance  problems  that
companies face as they  transition to  e-business.  These services are delivered
through the use of a seamless on-site and offshore  consulting project team. The
Company's primary service offerings include:

     o    application development and integration;

     o    application management; and

     o    re-engineering.

     The  Company  began  its  software  development  and  maintenance  services
business in early 1994, as an in-house technology development center for The Dun
& Bradstreet  Corporation and its operating  units. In 1996, the Company,  along
with Erisco, IMS International, Nielsen Media Research, Pilot Software and Sales
Technologies  and certain other  entities,  plus a majority  interest in Gartner
Group were spun-off from The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation to form a new company,
Cognizant  Corporation.  In 1997,  the  Company  purchased  the  24.0%  minority
interest in its Indian  subsidiary  from a third party for $3.4 million,  making
the Indian subsidiary wholly owned by the Company.

     In June 1998, the Company  completed its initial public  offering.  On June
30, 1998, a majority  interest in the Company,  Erisco,  IMS  International  and
certain other  entities were spun-off  from  Cognizant  Corporation  to form IMS
Health.  At  June  30,  2001,  IMS  Health  owned  approximately  59.2%  of  the
outstanding  stock of the Company and held  approximately  93.6% of the combined
voting power of the Company's common stock.

     On May 23, 2000, the  stockholders  of the Company  approved an increase in
the  number  of  authorized  Class B common  stock  from  15,000,000  shares  to
25,000,000 shares.

     The  Company's  services are  performed on either a  time-and-materials  or
fixed-price  basis.  Revenues  related  to   time-and-materials   contracts  are
recognized  as  the  service  is  performed.  Revenues  related  to  fixed-price
contracts  are   recognized   using  the   percentage-of-completion   method  of
accounting,  under  which the sales  value of  performance,  including  earnings
thereon,  is  recognized  on the basis of the  percentage  that each  contract's
incurred cost to date bears to the total estimated  cost.  Estimates are subject
to adjustment as a project progresses to reflect changes in expected  completion
costs or dates.  The  cumulative  impact of any  revision  in  estimates  of the
percentage of work completed is reflected in the financial  reporting  period in
which the change in the estimate becomes known,  and any anticipated  losses are
recognized  immediately.  Since the Company bears the risk of cost over-runs and
inflation associated with fixed-price projects,  the Company's operating results
may be adversely  affected by changes in estimates of contract  completion costs
and dates.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000

     Revenue.  Revenue increased by 42.8%, or $13.6 million,  from $31.8 million
during the three  months ended June 30, 2000 to $45.4  million  during the three
months ended June 30, 2001. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in
application  management  services.  The  percentage  of  revenues  derived  from
unrelated  parties  increased  from 88.2% during the three months ended June 30,
2000 to 89.0%  during  the three  months  ended  June 30,  2001.  This  increase
resulted primarily from the Company's  continued efforts to pursue  unaffiliated
third-party  customers.  For  statement of  operations  purposes,  revenues from
related parties only include revenues  recognized during the period in which the
related party was directly affiliated with the Company. In the second quarter of
2001,  sales to one related party customer  accounted for 11.0% of revenues.  In
the second quarter of 2000,  sales to one related party  customer  accounted for
11.8% of revenues and one third-party customer accounted for 10.1% of revenues.

     Gross profit. The Company's cost of revenues consists primarily of the cost
of salaries,  payroll  taxes,  benefits,  immigration  and travel for  technical
personnel,  and the cost of sales  commissions.  The Company's  cost of revenues
increased by 42.8%, or  approximately  $7.0 million,  from  approximately  $16.4
million  during the three  months  ended June 30,  2000 to  approximately  $23.4
million  during the three  months  ended June 30,  2001.  The  increase  was due
primarily to the increased cost resulting from the increase in the number of the
Company's



                                     - 11 -


technical  professionals from approximately  2,300 employees at June 30, 2000 to
approximately  3,200  employees at June 30, 2001.  The  increased  number of the
Company's  technical  professionals is a direct result of greater demand for the
Company's   services.   The  Company's  gross  profit  increased  by  42.8%,  or
approximately $6.6 million,  from  approximately  $15.4 million during the three
months  ended June 30,  2000 to  approximately  $22.0  million  during the three
months ended June 30, 2001. Gross profit margin was 48.5% of revenues during the
three months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative   expenses.   Selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses  consist  primarily  of  salaries,  employee  benefits,
travel,  promotion,  communications,  management,  finance,  administrative  and
occupancy  costs as well as  depreciation  and  amortization  expense.  Selling,
general and administrative  expenses,  including  depreciation and amortization,
increased by 40.2%,  or  approximately  $3.8 million,  from  approximately  $9.4
million  during the three  months  ended June 30,  2000 to  approximately  $13.2
million  during  the three  months  ended  June 30,  2001,  and  decreased  as a
percentage of revenue from 29.5% to 29.0%.  The dollar increase in such expenses
was  primarily  due to  expenses  incurred  to expand  the  Company's  sales and
marketing  activities  and  increased  infrastructure  expenses  to support  the
Company's  revenue  growth.  The decrease in such  expenses as a  percentage  of
revenue resulted from the Company's increased volume of revenue.

     Income  from  Operations.   Income  from  operations  increased  46.9%,  or
approximately  $2.8 million,  from  approximately  $6.0 million during the three
months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately $8.9 million during the three months
ended June 30, 2001, representing 19.0% and 19.5% of revenues, respectively. The
increase in operating  margin was  primarily  due to the  increased  third-party
revenue and the shift toward newer higher margin customer services.

     Other Income. Other income consists primarily of interest income offset, in
part, by foreign currency exchange losses.  Interest income increased by $75,000
from $542,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2000 to $617,000 during the
three  months  ended June 30, 2001.  The  increase in such  interest  income was
attributable  primarily to generally higher operating cash balances,  offset, in
part, by declining interest rates. The Company recognized a net foreign currency
exchange  loss of  $150,000  during  the three  months  ended  June 30,  2001 as
compared to a loss of $170,000 in the prior period, as a result of the effect of
changing exchange rates on the Company's transactions.

     Provision for Income Taxes.  The provision for income taxes  increased from
approximately  $2.4  million  in  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2000  to
approximately  $3.5 million in the three  months  ended June 30,  2001,  with an
effective tax rate of 37.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001.

     Net Income.  Net income increased from  approximately  $4.0 million for the
three  months  ended June 30, 2000 to  approximately  $5.8 million for the three
months  ended  June  30,  2001,   representing  12.6%  and  12.9%  of  revenues,
respectively.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000

     Revenue.  Revenue increased by 50.9%, or approximately $29.9 million,  from
approximately  $58.9  million  during  the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 to
approximately  $88.8  million  during the six months ended June 30,  2001.  This
increase  resulted  primarily  from an increase in application  development  and
integration,  application  management,  reengineering  and other  services.  The
percentage  of revenues  derived from  unrelated  parties  increased  from 87.7%
during the six months  ended June 30, 2000 to 90.5%  during the six months ended
June 30, 2001.  This increase  resulted  primarily from the Company's  continued
efforts  to  pursue  unaffiliated   third-party  customers.   For  statement  of
operations  purposes,  revenues  from  related  parties  only  include  revenues
recognized during the period in which the related party was directly  affiliated
with the  Company.  During the six  months  ended  June 30,  2001,  sales to one
related party  customer  accounted  for 9.5% of revenues.  During the six months
ended June 30, 2000, sales to one related party customer  accounted for 12.3% of
revenues and one third-party customer accounted for 10.5% of revenues.

     Gross  profit.  The  Company's  cost of  revenues  increased  by 50.9%,  or
approximately  $15.4 million,  from  approximately  $30.3 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately  $45.8 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2001. The increase was due primarily to increased costs resulting
from the increase in the number of the Company's  technical  professionals  from
approximately  2,300 employees at June 30, 2000 to approximately 3,200 employees
at  June  30,  2001.  The  Company's   gross  profit   increased  by  50.8%,  or
approximately  $14.5 million,  from  approximately  $28.6 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately  $43.1 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2001.  Gross profit  margin was 48.5% of revenues  during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001.

     Selling,  general  and  administrative   expenses.   Selling,  general  and
administrative expenses,  including depreciation and amortization,  increased by
48.4%, or approximately $8.4 million,  from  approximately  $17.4 million during
the six months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately $25.8 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2001,  and decreased as a percentage of revenue from 29.5%
to 29.1%. The increase in such expenses in absolute dollars was primarily due to
expenses  incurred to expand the Company's  sales and marketing  activities  and
increased  infrastructure  expenses to support the Company's revenue growth. The
decrease in such expenses as a percentage of revenue resulted from the Company's
increased volume of revenue.

     Income  from  Operations.   Income  from  operations  increased  54.6%,  or
approximately  $6.1 million,  from  approximately  $11.2 million  during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately  $17.3 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2001, representing 19.0% and 19.4% of revenues, respectively. The
increase in operating  margin was  primarily  due to the  increased  third-party
revenue and the shift toward newer higher margin customer services.

     Other Income.  Interest  income  increased by  approximately  $316,000 from
approximately  $1.0  million  during  the six  months  ended  June  30,  2000 to
approximately  $1.4  million  during the six months  ended  June 30,  2001.  The
increase in such interest income was attributable  primarily to generally higher
operating cash  balances,  offset,  in part, by declining  interest  rates.  The
Company  recognized a net foreign currency  exchange loss of $395,000 during the
six months


                                     - 13 -


ended June 30, 2001  compared to a loss of  $264,000 in the prior  period,  as a
result of changes in exchange rates on the Company's transactions.

     Provision for Income Taxes.  The provision for income taxes  increased from
approximately   $4.5  million  for  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2000  to
approximately  $6.8  million  for the six months  ended June 30,  2001,  with an
effective tax rate of 37.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 2001.

     Net Income.  Net income increased from  approximately  $7.5 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 to approximately $11.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001, representing 12.7% and 12.8% of revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Historically, through the date of the IPO, the Company's primary sources of
funding had been cash flow from operations and intercompany  cash transfers with
its majority owner and controlling parent company Cognizant  Corporation and IMS
Health.  In June 1998, the Company  consummated  its initial public  offering of
5,834,000 (2,917,000 pre-split) shares of its Class A Common Stock at a price to
the public of $5.00 ($10.00 pre-split) per share, of which 5,000,000  (2,500,000
pre-split)  shares were  issued and sold by the  Company  and  834,000  (417,000
pre-split)  shares  were  sold,  at that time,  by  Cognizant  Corporation,  The
Company's then owner and  controlling  parent  company.  The net proceeds to the
Company from the offering were  approximately  $22.4  million after  $843,000 of
direct expenses. The funds received by the Company from the IPO were invested in
short-term,  investment grade,  interest bearing  securities,  after the Company
used a portion  of the net  proceeds  to repay  approximately  $6.6  million  of
non-trade related party balances to Cognizant Corporation.  The Company has used
and will continue to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for
(i) expansion of existing operations,  including the Company's offshore software
development  centers;  (ii)  continued  development  of new  service  lines  and
possible  acquisitions  of  related  businesses;  and  (iii)  general  corporate
purposes  including  working capital.  At June 30, 2001 the Company had cash and
cash equivalents of $67.7 million.

     Net cash provided by operating  activities was  approximately  $7.9 million
during the six months  ended June 30, 2001 as  compared to net cash  provided by
operating  activities of approximately  $6.5 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2000.  The increase  results  primarily from increased net income and a
lower increase in accounts receivable  partially offset by a decrease in accrued
and other liabilities.  Trade accounts receivable,  net of allowance,  increased
from $20.5 million at December 31, 2000 to $23.2 million at June 30, 2001 due to
increased revenues.  The Company monitors turnover,  aging and the collection of
accounts  receivable through the use of management reports which are prepared on
a customer basis and evaluated by the Company's finance staff. At June 30, 2001,
the Company's  day's sales  outstanding,  including  unbilled  receivables,  was
approximately 55 days.

     The Company's  investing  activities  used net cash of  approximately  $5.3
million  for the six months  ended June 30, 2001 as compared to net cash used of
approximately  $4.8  million for the same period in 2000.  The  increase in 2001
compared to 2000 primarily reflects an increase in


                                     - 14 -


purchases of property and equipment  partially  offset by the fact that there is
no  comparable  item in 2001  related  to the  Company's  investment  in Questra
Corporation in June 2000.

     The Company's financing  activities provided net cash of approximately $3.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to net cash  provided
by financing  activities of approximately  $917,000 for the same period in 2000.
The increase in net cash provided by financing  activities was primarily related
to a higher  level of cash  proceeds  from the  exercise  of stock  options  and
employee  stock purchase plan shares in 2001, as compared to the prior year. The
exercise of stock  options and the  purchase of  employee  stock  purchase  plan
shares resulted in an increase of approximately  412,000 shares in the Company's
outstanding Class A Common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2001.

     As of June 30, 2001, the Company had no significant third-party debt.

     The Company had working capital of $79.5 million at June 30, 2001 and $61.5
million at December 31, 2000.

     As of June 30, 2001 the Company has entered into fixed capital  commitments
related to its India development  center expansion program of approximately $7.7
million.  The multi-phase program will encompass the construction of three fully
owned development centers containing  approximately  600,000 sq. ft. of space in
Pune, Chennai and Calcutta.  Total costs related to this program are expected to
be approximately $32.6 million, of which $3.5 million has been spent to date.

     The Company  believes that its available  funds and the cash flows expected
to be  generated  from  operations,  will be adequate to satisfy its current and
planned operations and needs through at least the next 12 months.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

     The  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Company's   Canadian  and  European
subsidiaries  are  translated  into U.S.  dollars at current  exchange rates and
revenues and expenses are  translated at average  monthly  exchange  rates.  The
resulting  translation  adjustments  are  recorded  in a separate  component  of
stockholders'  equity.  For the  Company's  Indian  subsidiary,  the  functional
currency is the U.S.  dollar  since its sales are made  primarily  in the United
States,  the sales price is  predominantly  in U.S.  dollars and there is a high
volume of  intercompany  transactions  denominated in U.S.  dollars  between the
Indian subsidiary and its U.S.  affiliates.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities
are  translated  at  historical   exchange  rates,  while  monetary  assets  and
liabilities are translated at current exchange rates. A portion of the Company's
costs in India  are  denominated  in local  currency  and  subject  to  exchange
fluctuations,  which has not had any material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
results of operations.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

     The Company's most significant  costs are the salaries and related benefits
for its programming staff and other professionals.  Competition in India and the
United States for  professionals  with advanced  technical  skills  necessary to
perform the  services  offered by the Company have caused wages to increase at a
rate greater than the general rate of inflation. As

with other IT service  providers,  the Company must  adequately  anticipate wage
increases,  particularly on its fixed-price contracts. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to recover cost increases through increases in the
prices that it charges for its services in the United States and elsewhere.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In July 1999, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 137,  "Accounting for
Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of the FASB Statement No. 133, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No.
137 defers the effective date of SFAS No. 133, which establishes  accounting and
reporting  standards for  derivative  instruments  embedded in other  contracts,
(collectively  referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.  SFAS No.
133  requires  that an entity  recognize  all  derivatives  as either  assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value.  If certain  conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated  as (a) a hedge of the  exposure  to  changes  in the fair value of a
recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of
the exposure to variability in cash flows  attributable to a particular risk, or
(c) a hedge of the foreign  currency  exposure of a net  investment in a foreign
operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available for sale security and a
forecasted transaction.  In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting
for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities,  an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 133", which amends certain  provisions of SFAS No. 133. As
a result of SFAS No.  137,  the  Company  has  implemented  SFAS No. 133 and the
corresponding  amendments of SFAS No. 138 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31,
2001.  There was no  material  impact on the  Company's  results of  operations,
financial   position   or  cash  flows  as  a  result  of   adoption   of  these
pronouncements.

     In July 2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 141,  "Business  Combinations"  and
SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets".  SFAS No. 141 requires companies
to account for acquisitions  entered into after June 30, 2001 using the purchase
method and  establishes  criteria  to be used in  determining  whether  acquired
intangible assets are to be recorded separately from goodwill. This criterion is
to be applied to business  combinations  completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No.
142 sets forth the  accounting  for  goodwill  and  intangible  assets after the
completion  of a business  acquisition.  Goodwill  will no longer be  amortized,
rather,  tested  for  impairment  by  comparing  the  asset's  fair value to its
carrying value. SFAS No. 142 is effective January 1, 2002.  Management is in the
process  of  analyzing  and  assessing  the  impact  of the  adoption  of  these
statements.
