EXHIBIT 99.2 PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION On July 23, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of all the outstanding capital stock of Retail Data Services, Inc. and RDS, Inc. (collectively, "RDS"). The total acquisition cost was $21,183,820; comprised of $15,000,000 paid in cash; $3,000,000 in deferred compensation to the seller; 53,250 shares of common stock valued at $2,762,610 of which 11,000 shares of common stock were issued from the Company's treasury account; liabilities assumed of $171,210 and $250,000 in transaction costs related to the acquisition. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company is required to pay $2,000,000 and $1,000,000 in March 2000 and 2001, respectively to the seller if revenue from the acquired business meets or exceeds certain levels in 1999 and 2000. Management has determined, based on the results of its analysis that it is highly probable that revenue from the acquired business will exceed the established levels, and accordingly, the deferred payments to the seller have been included in the acquisition cost. The total acquisition cost was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired based on an independent appraisal. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of QRS Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") give effect to the acquisition of all of the outstanding common stock of RDS on July 23, 1999. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, which requires the purchase price to be allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed of RDS on the basis of their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the acquisition of RDS as if it had occurred on June 30, 1999, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings (collectively, the "Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information") reflects the results of operations of the Company for the six month period ended June 30, 1999 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 as if the acquisition of RDS had occurred on January 1, 1999 (the first day of fiscal 1999) and January 1, 1998, (the first day of fiscal 1998) and includes adjustments directly attributable to the acquisition and expected to have a continuing impact on the combined company. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information has been prepared based on preliminary estimates of certain direct costs and liabilities associated with the transaction, and amounts actually recorded may change upon final determination of such amounts. Specifically, additional information is expected to be obtained for accrued expenses related to the acquisition. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information and related notes are provided for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the Company's actual financial position or results of operations would have been had the forgoing transaction been consummated on such dates, nor does it give effect to the synergies, cost savings and other charges expected to result from the acquisition. Accordingly, the pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative of the Company's financial position or results of operations as of the date hereof or for any period ended on the date hereof or as of or for any other future date or period.
