NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS)
(UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994 are unaudited and reflect all adjustments, consisting of
normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. The results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire year ending December 31, 1995.

For clarity of presentation and comparison, the periods from January 1,
1995 to July 1, 1995 and from January 1, 1994 to July 2, 1994 are referred to as
the "Six Months Ended June 30, 1995" and "Six Months Ended June 30, 1994",
respectively, throughout these financial statements.

On August 31, 1995, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Future Vision in exchange for the issuance of 1,088,149 shares
of common stock of the Company. The results for the Six Months Ended June 30,
1995 have been restated to reflect the pooling-of-interest accounting treatment
of the transaction. The financial statements for periods prior to the Six Months
Ended June 30, 1995 do not include amounts for this acquisition as they were
deemed to be immaterial.

Summarized results of operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 on
a separate company and combined basis are as follows (in thousands):

SOFTKEY FUTURE VISION COMBINED
------- ------------- --------

Revenues......................................... $74,721 $ 3,108 $77,829
Operating income (loss).......................... 21,779 (6,024) 15,755
Net income (loss)................................ 17,973 (5,178) 12,795

2. GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over fair market value of
identifiable assets acquired. The Company evaluates the carrying value of
goodwill for possible impairment on a quarterly basis. Based upon its most
recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of goodwill exists at
June 30, 1995.

3. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

JUNE 30, 1995 DECEMBER 31, 1994
-------------- -----------------

Revolving line-of-credit...................................... $ 3,001 $ 7,700
Related party debt............................................ 4,954 2,123

-------------- -----------------
$ 7,704 $17,536
=========== =============

The long-term related party debt includes $2,000 of debt that converted
into equity in August, 1995.

4. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods at June 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994.
5

5. COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of
common and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the
period. Dilutive common stock equivalent shares consist of convertible
debentures and notes, convertible Series A and Series B preferred stock and
stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. The computations do
not include common stock equivalents where the effect would not be dilutive.
Primary earnings per share computations do not materially differ from fully
diluted earnings per share.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMPETITION ACT INQUIRY (CANADA)

On June 10, 1994, the Director of Investigation and Research under the
Competition Act (Canada) (the "Act") commenced an inquiry in Canada under the
non-criminal, reviewable practices provisions of the Act respecting the
activities of SoftKey Software Products Inc. ("SoftKey Software") in the tax
preparation software business in Canada. On June 28, 1994, an order requiring
SoftKey Software, along with other companies in the Canadian tax preparation
software business, to produce certain documents and information respecting the
Canadian tax preparation software industry was issued by the Federal Court of
Canada, Trial Division. SoftKey Software has provided the Canadian Bureau of
Competition Policy (the "Bureau") with the documents and information sought by
the Bureau and is continuing to cooperate with the Bureau in its inquiry into
the relevant activities. At this time, no formal application has been made
seeking remedy under the Act. Management does not currently expect that the
outcome of this inquiry will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

OTHER LITIGATION

The Company is a defendant in various legal actions involving copyright,
breach of contract and various other claims incident to the conduct of its
business. Management does not expect the Company to suffer any material
liability by reason of such actions.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
