                        BINDVIEW DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    GENERAL

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements of BindView Development
Corporation, a Texas corporation (the "Company" or "BindView"), included herein
have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. The Company
believes that the presentations and disclosures herein are adequate to make the
information not misleading. The consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation of the interim periods. Certain reclassifications have been made to
the prior year's consolidated financial statements to conform with the current
year presentation.

      The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. These
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

2.    LOSS PER SHARE

      Options and warrants to purchase 11.0 million shares of common stock for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 9.0 million shares of common
stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 were outstanding, but
were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as their
inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

3.    STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

      The Company accounts for all stock-based employee compensation plans under
the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB 25") and related interpretations. Accordingly,
compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the
quoted market price of the Company's common shares at the date of the grant over
the amount an employee must pay to acquire the common shares. The Company
generally grants options at prices equal to the market price of common shares on
the date of the grant. However, if options are granted at a price below fair
market value, compensation expense is recorded in accordance with the provisions
of APB 25. Compensation expense may also be recognized for certain options which
are considered variable option grants. Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - an
Amendment to FAS 123," requires companies that continue to account for
stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25 to disclose certain
information using tabular presentation as presented below. This table
illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share as if the Company had
applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands,
except per share amounts):

4.    RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

      The Company recorded restructuring charges totaling $0.1 million and $0.5
million in the first half of 2004 and 2003, respectively. The 2004 charge was
primarily attributable to reserves established against rent payments due from
the Company's sublease tenant which occupied its excess office space in
Arlington, VA. The $0.5 million charge in 2003 was for the Company's sales and
marketing reorganization plan.

      In January 2003, the Company approved a sales and marketing reorganization
plan (the "2003 Restructuring Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled
approximately $0.5 million and consisted primarily of (i) involuntary employee
separation for approximately 20 employees (a reduction in workforce of
approximately 4 percent), (ii) closing the Company's Netherlands sales office,
and (iii) reserves for leasehold abandonment. All actions under the 2003
Restructuring Plan were completed by December 31, 2003.

      In July 2002, the Company approved a restructuring plan to improve
operating efficiency and improve sales and marketing productivity (the "2002
Restructuring Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled approximately $1.9 million
and consisted primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately
30 employees (a reduction in workforce of approximately 5 percent), (ii) closing
the Company's Boston development center and certain European sales offices,
(iii) reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related
cuts.

      The remaining accrual for the 2002 Restructuring Plan at December 31, 2003
was comprised of the estimated carrying costs for the Company's remaining excess
space in Houston, Texas. During the second quarter of 2004, the Company received
letters of intent to sublease the remaining excess space. The Company recorded a
$0.1 million adjustment to its restructuring accrual as a result of receiving
these letters of intent. The remaining accrual at June 30, 2004 is comprised of
the Company's carrying costs for the remaining space in Houston that are in
excess of anticipated sublease payments. Adjustments could be required in future
periods if there are significant changes to the terms and conditions of the
sublease arrangements.

      The 2002 Restructuring Plan activity from December 31, 2003 to June 30,
2004 was as follows (in thousands):

      In 2001, the Company completed a corporate reorganization and implemented
a number of cost-cutting measures to improve operating efficiency and to
accelerate our return to profitability (the "2001 Restructuring Plan"). The cost
of this plan totaled approximately $6.6 million and consisted primarily of: (i)
involuntary employee separation expenses for approximately 160 employees (a
reduction in workforce of approximately 21 percent), (ii) downsizing or closing
of the Company's Boston and Arlington development centers and certain European
sales offices, (iii) reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various
non-personnel related costs. The restructuring costs included a $1.2 million
charge related to asset impairments of leasehold improvements, equipment and
other assets of the closed or downsized offices.

      The remaining accrual for the 2001 Restructuring Plan consists of excess
carrying costs until the lease cancellation for the Company's two floors
abandoned as part of said Plan is effective in September of 2004.

5.    INVESTMENTS

      The Company's short-term investments include commercial paper, corporate
bonds and certificates of deposits that have original maturities of more than
three months and less than one year. These investments are intended to be held
to maturity.

6.    INCOME TAXES

      The Company continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its
deferred tax assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes". As in its prior assessments, the Company
considered current and previous performance and other relevant factors in
determining the sufficiency of its valuation allowance. Objective factors, such
as current and previous operating losses, were given substantially more weight
than management's outlook for future profitability. Until such time as a
consistent pattern of sufficient profitability is established, no tax benefit
will be recognized associated with the Company's pre-tax accounting losses and a
full income tax provision will not be provided on any future pre-tax accounting
income.

7.    SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

      In April 2004, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock
repurchase program for the second quarter of 2004. The Company purchased
approximately 0.4 million shares of common stock during the quarter ended June
30, 2004, at an average price per share of $2.77. The Company retired these
repurchased shares in June 2004.

8.    SUBSEQUENT EVENT

      In July 2004, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase
program for the third quarter of 2004. Under this program, management of the
Company can spend up to $2.0 million, at its discretion, for the repurchase of
the Company's common stock in the open market, subject to Securities and
Exchange Commission guidelines and restrictions set forth in Rule 10b-18.

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

      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contain forward-looking statements which involve risks and
uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from the
results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause
such a difference include those discussed in the "Cautionary Statements" set
forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2003. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements included with this report and our
consolidated financial statements and related Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended
December 31, 2003 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW

      See discussion under Item 1, "General" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2003 for an overview of our business.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies
and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with those
disclosed in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2003.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
2003

      REVENUES. Revenues for the current quarter were $18.6 million compared
with $15.3 million for the second quarter of 2003. The year-over-year
improvement in revenues resulted from a stronger working sales pipeline entering
the quarter, improved sales execution and strong demand for our products.
License revenues for the second quarter of 2004 were $9.1 million, or 48.8
percent of total revenues, up from $7.4 million, or 48.3 percent of total
revenues, in the second quarter of 2003. Services revenues for the second
quarter of 2004 were $9.5 million, or 51.2 percent of total revenues, up from
$7.9 million, or 51.7 percent of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2003.
Services revenues for the second quarter of 2004 were comprised of maintenance
revenues of $7.8 million and professional services revenues of $1.7 million, up
from $7.0 million in maintenance revenues and $0.9 million in professional
services revenues in the second quarter of 2003. The increase in services
revenues was primarily due to an increase in our installed customer base and an
increased focus on selling value-added consulting services.

      The average sales price for transactions in the second quarter of 2004 was
$34 thousand, compared with $26 thousand in the second quarter of 2003 and $28
thousand in the first quarter of 2004. With respect to large transactions (sales
greater than $130 thousand) we closed 25 during the current quarter having an
average sales price of approximately $301 thousand, compared with 14 in the
second quarter of 2003 having an average sales price of $349 thousand.

      During the second quarter of 2004, revenues from our products for
Microsoft-based platforms totaled $13.1 million, an increase of 26.4 percent
over the second quarter of 2003. Revenues from these products accounted for
approximately 71 percent of total revenues in the second quarter of 2004, up
from 68 percent of total revenues for the second quarter of 2003. License
revenues for our Microsoft-related products for the second quarter of 2004 were
$7.9 million compared with $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2003.
Maintenance revenues for our Microsoft-related products in the second quarter of
2004 were $5.2 million compared with $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2003.
We expect revenues from our products and maintenance for Microsoft-based
platforms will continue to grow as a percentage of total revenues.

      Revenues from our products for Novell-based platforms for the second
quarter of 2004 were $2.7 million,

                                       8

<PAGE>

or 15 percent of total revenues, compared with $2.9 million, or 19 percent of
total revenues, in second quarter of 2003. Consistent with the trend seen in
past quarters, total revenues from these products were down year-over-year,
reflecting both the maturity and our penetration of the Novell market. License
revenues for Novell-based platforms were $0.8 million in both the second quarter
of 2004 and 2003. Maintenance revenues for Novell-based platforms in the second
quarter of 2004 were $1.9 million compared with $2.1 million in the second
quarter of 2003. While we expect our Novell revenues will continue to decline in
the future, we expect the revenue decline will be modest relative to the
declines over the past two years and expect the decline will be offset by higher
revenues from our products and maintenance for other platforms.

      Sales of our security focused bv-Control product line accounted for
approximately 86 percent of our license revenue in the second quarter of 2004
compared with 77 percent in the second quarter of 2003. Sales of our system
administration focused bv-Admin product line accounted for approximately 14
percent of our license revenue in the second quarter of 2004 compared with 23
percent in the second quarter of 2003. The increase in our bv-Control product
line revenues as a percentage of total revenue has increased year-over-year
primarily due to the increased demand in the market for software to assist
customers with policy compliance and vulnerability management requirements.

      No customer accounted for more than 10 percent of our revenues during the
second quarter of 2004 or 2003. Revenues recognized from sales to customers
outside North America, primarily in Europe, accounted for approximately 11
percent of total revenues in the second quarter of 2004 compared with 12 percent
in the second quarter of 2003.

      GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the current quarter totaled $16.4 million,
up 21 percent from the second quarter of 2003, due to the increase in revenues.
Gross margin for the current quarter was 88.0 percent, slightly down from 88.2
percent in the second quarter of 2003. The decline in gross margin related to
the increase in professional services revenues, which have a lower gross margin
than our license and maintenance revenues.

      Gross profit generated from license revenues for the second quarter of
2004 was $8.9 million, compared with $7.3 million for the second quarter of
2003. The gross margin from license revenues for the second quarter of 2004 was
97.9 percent, compared with 98.8 percent for the second quarter of 2003.

      Gross profit from services revenues for the second quarter of 2004 was
$7.5 million, compared with $6.2 million for the second quarter of 2003. Gross
margin from services revenues for the second quarter of 2004 was 78.6 percent
compared with 78.5 percent for the second quarter of 2003. While we do not track
and measure costs of performing services (i.e., technical support, professional
services) by product platform (i.e., Microsoft, Novell, etc.), we do not believe
there is a material difference in the gross margin by product line.

      OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES. Operating costs and expenses for the second
quarter of 2004 totaled $17.3 million, up from $15.8 million for the second
quarter of 2003. Operating costs for the second quarter of 2004 included
restructuring and severance charges of approximately $0.5 million. Excluding
these charges in the second quarter of 2004, operating costs and expenses were
approximately $1.0 million, or 6.6 percent, higher in the second quarter of 2004
due to significant investments in sales and marketing since the second quarter
of 2003 and costs related to our planned expansion of our R&D operations in
India, higher wage and health care costs and expenses associated with
Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.

      Sales and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2004 were $9.7
million (52.4 percent of revenues), up from $9.3 million (60.5 percent of
revenues) for the second quarter of 2003. The increase in sales and marketing
expenses primarily related to investments in areas where we see long-term growth
opportunities, specifically our Federal, Latin American and European operations.
We also added personnel to our inside sales force and increased spending on
marketing programs to grow our working sales pipeline. We expect sales and
marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues to be lower in the second half of
2004 as a result of anticipated revenue growth.

      Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2004 were $5.4
million (29.0 percent of revenues), up from $4.6 million (29.8 percent of
revenues) for the second quarter of 2003. This increase related to our actions
taken to affect the planned expansion of our R&D operations in India to better
execute on our product strategy, as well as severance costs of approximately
$0.3 million related to management changes within R&D.

                                       9

Primarily as a result of the expansion in India, we expect R&D expenses in 2004
will be up $2.0 to $2.5 million over 2003. We also expect that this initiative
coupled with anticipated revenue growth will result in a decrease in research
and development expenses as a percentage of revenues.

      General and administrative expenses were $2.0 million in both the second
quarter of 2004 (10.9 percent of revenues) and 2003 (12.8 percent of revenues).
Direct costs associated with our efforts to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley section
404 totaled approximately $0.1 million during the second quarter of 2004. We
expect future general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of
revenues as a result of our restructuring initiatives to date to improve
operating efficiencies, as well as anticipated revenue growth.

      We recorded restructuring charges totaling $0.1 million in the second
quarter of 2004 primarily to establish a reserve against rent payments due from
our sublease tenant which occupied our excess office space in Arlington, VA.

      In January 2003, we approved a sales and marketing reorganization plan
(the "2003 Restructuring Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled approximately
$0.5 million and consisted primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for
approximately 20 employees (a reduction in workforce of approximately 4
percent), (ii) our Netherlands sales office, and (iii) reserves for leasehold
abandonment. All actions under the 2003 Restructuring Plan were completed by
December 31, 2003.

      In July 2002, we approved a restructuring plan to improve operating
efficiency and improve sales and marketing productivity (the "2002 Restructuring
Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled approximately $1.9 million and consisted
primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately 30 employees
(a reduction in workforce of approximately 5 percent), (ii) closing our Boston
development center and certain European sales offices, (iii) reserves for
leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related cuts.

      The remaining accrual for the 2002 Restructuring Plan at December 31, 2003
was comprised of the estimated carrying costs for our remaining excess space in
Houston, Texas. During the second quarter of 2004, we received letters of intent
to sublease the remaining excess space. We recorded a $0.1 million adjustment to
our restructuring accrual as a result of receiving these letters of intent. The
remaining accrual at June 30, 2004 is comprised of our carrying costs for the
remaining space that are in excess of anticipated sublease payments. Adjustments
could be required in future periods if there are significant changes to the
terms and conditions of the sublease arrangements.

      The 2002 Restructuring Plan activity from December 31, 2003 to June 30,
2004 was as follows (in thousands):

      In 2001, we completed a corporate reorganization and implemented a number
of cost-cutting measures to improve operating efficiency and to accelerate our
return to profitability (the "2001 Restructuring Plan"). The cost of this plan
totaled approximately $6.6 million and consisted primarily of: (i) involuntary
employee separation expenses for approximately 160 employees (a reduction in
workforce of approximately 21 percent), (ii) downsizing or closing of our Boston
and Arlington development centers and certain European sales offices, (iii)
reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related
costs. The restructuring costs included a $1.2 million charge related to asset
impairments of leasehold improvements, equipment and other assets of the closed
or downsized offices.

      The remaining accrual for the 2001 Restructuring Plan consists of excess
carrying costs until the lease cancellation for our two floors abandoned as part
of said Plan is effective in September of 2004.

      PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. We did not record an income tax provision or
benefit for our domestic operations in either the second quarter of 2004 or
2003, as we continue to provide a full valuation allowance against our deferred
tax assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes". As in our prior assessments, we considered
current and previous performance and other relevant factors in determining the
sufficiency of our valuation allowance. Objective factors, such as current and
previous operating losses, were given substantially more weight than our outlook
for future profitability. Until such time as a consistent pattern of sufficient
profitability is established, no tax benefit will be recognized associated with
the Company's pre-tax accounting losses and a full income tax provision will not
be provided on any future pre-tax accounting income. A provision of $0.1 million
was recorded for taxes related to our foreign operations during the second
quarter of 2004.

      NET LOSS. Due to the factors described above, net loss for the quarter
ended June 30, 2004 was $0.9 million compared with $2.1 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 2003.

      OUTLOOK. We expect full-year 2004 revenues will be in line with our
previously announced estimate of $75 million to $80 million. We expect full-year
2004 net income of $1.0 million ($0.02 per share) to $3.0 million ($0.06 per
share). Our estimate for net income has been revised to reflect restructuring
and severance charges of approximately $0.5 million, which were incurred in the
second quarter of 2004. For the third quarter of 2004, we estimate revenues will
range between $18.0 million and $21.0 million and our net results will range
between a net loss of $0.6 million ($0.01 per share) and net income of $1.4
million ($0.03 per share).

      We believe that our ability to achieve the high end of our revenue and net
income range for 2004 depends on a number of factors, including higher closure
rates on large transactions in the sales pipeline and continued overall
improvement in sales effectiveness.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003

      REVENUES. Revenues for the first six months of 2004 were $33.5 million
compared with $28.4 million for the first six months of 2003. The year-over-year
improvement in revenues resulted from a stronger working sales pipeline entering
the year, improved sales execution and strong demand for our products. License
revenues for the first half of 2004 were $15.0 million, or 44.7 percent of total
revenues, up from $12.6 million, or 44.4 percent of total revenues, in the first
half of 2003. Services revenues for the first half of 2004 were $18.6 million,
or 55.3 percent of total revenues, up from $15.8 million, or 55.6 percent of
total revenues, in the first half of 2003. Services revenues for the first half
of 2004 were comprised of maintenance revenues of $15.3 million and professional
services revenues of $3.3 million, up from $13.9 million in maintenance revenues
and $1.9 million in professional services revenues in the first half of 2003.
The increase in services revenues was primarily due to an increase in our
installed customer base and an increased focus on selling value-added consulting
services.

      With respect to large transactions (sales greater than $130 thousand) we
closed 44 during the first half of 2004 having an average sales price of $316
thousand, compared with 30 during the first half of 2003 having an average sales
price of $278 thousand.

      During the first half of 2004, revenues from our products for
Microsoft-based platforms totaled $23.3 million, an increase of 22 percent over
the first half of 2003. Revenues from these products accounted for approximately
69 percent of total revenues in the first half of 2004, up from 67 percent of
total revenues for the first half of 2003. License revenues for our
Microsoft-related products for the first half of 2004 were $13.0 million
compared with $10.6 million in the first half of 2003. Maintenance revenues for
our Microsoft-related products in the first half of 2004 were $10.2 million
compared with $8.5 million in the first half of 2003. We expect revenues from
our products and

                                       11

<PAGE>

maintenance for Microsoft-based platforms will continue to grow as a percentage
of total revenues.

      Revenues from our products for Novell-based platforms for the first half
of 2004 were $5.2 million, or 16 percent of total revenues, compared with $5.6
million, or 20 percent of total revenues, in the first half of 2003. Consistent
with the trend seen in past quarters, total revenues from these products were
down year-over-year, reflecting both the maturity and our penetration of the
Novell market. Licenses revenues for Novell-based platforms were $1.5 million in
the first half of 2004 and $1.3 million in the first half of 2003. Maintenance
revenues for Novell-based platforms in the first half of 2004 were $3.7 million
compared with $4.3 million in the first half of 2003. While we expect our Novell
revenues will continue to decline in the future, we expect the revenue decline
will be modest relative to the declines over the past two years and expect the
decline will be offset by higher revenues from our products and maintenance for
other platforms.

      Sales of our security focused bv-Control product line accounted for
approximately 85 percent of our license revenue in the first half of 2004
compared with 77 percent in the first half of 2003. Sales of our system
administration focused bv-Admin product line accounted for approximately 15
percent of our license revenue in the first half of 2004 compared with 23
percent in the first half of 2003. The increase in our bv-Control product line
revenues as a percentage of total revenue has increased year-over-year primarily
due to the increased demand in the market for software to assist customers with
policy compliance and vulnerability management requirements.

      No customer accounted for more than 10 percent of our revenues during the
first half of 2004 or 2003. Revenues recognized from sales to customers outside
North America, primarily in Europe, accounted for approximately 11 percent of
total revenues in both the first half of 2004 and 2003.

      GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the first half of 2004 totaled $29.3
million, up 17 percent from the first half of 2003 due to the increase in
revenues. Gross margin for the first half of 2004 was 87.5 percent, slightly
down from 88.2 percent in the first half of 2003. The decline in gross margin
related to the increase in professional services revenues, which have a lower
gross margin than our license and maintenance revenues.

      Gross profit generated from license revenues for the first half of 2004
was $14.7 million, compared with $12.4 million for the first half of 2003. The
gross margin from license revenues for the first half of 2004 was 97.8 percent,
compared with 98.3 percent for the first half of 2003.

      Gross profit from services revenues for the first half of 2004 was $14.7
million, compared with $12.6 million for the first half of 2003. Gross margin
from services revenues for the first half of 2004 was 79.2 percent compared with
80.1 percent for the first half of 2003. The decline in gross margin reflected
higher personnel costs associated with our technical-support and
professional-services units. While we do not track and measure costs of
performing services (technical support, professional services) by product
platform (i.e., Microsoft, Novell, etc.), we do not believe there is a material
difference in the gross margin by product line.

      OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES. Operating costs and expenses for the first
half of 2004 totaled $33.0 million, up from $30.1 million for the first half of
2003. The increase in operating costs year-over-year is primarily attributable
to significant investments in sales and marketing since the first half of 2003
and costs related to our planned expansion of our R&D operations in India,
higher wage and health care costs and expenses associated with Sarbanes-Oxley
compliance.

      Sales and marketing expenses for the first half of 2004 were $18.9 million
(56.4 percent of revenues), up from $17.0 million (60.0 percent of revenues) for
the first half of 2003. The increase in sales and marketing expenses primarily
related to investments in areas where we see long-term growth opportunities,
specifically our Federal, Latin American and European operations. We also added
personnel to our inside sales force and increased spending on marketing programs
to grow our working sales pipeline. We expect sales and marketing expenses as a
percentage of revenues to be lower for the remainder of 2004 as a result of
anticipated revenue growth.

      Research and development expenses for the first half of 2004 were $10.0
million (29.7 percent of revenues), up from $8.8 million (31.0 percent of
revenues) for the first half of 2003. This increase related to our actions taken
to affect the planned expansion of our R&D operations in India to better execute
on our product strategy, as well as severance costs of approximately $0.3
million related to management changes within R&D.

                                       12

<PAGE>

Primarily as a result of the expansion in India, we expect R&D expenses in 2004
will be up $2.0 to $2.5 million over 2003. We also expect that this initiative
coupled with anticipated revenue growth will result in a decrease in research
and development expenses as a percentage of revenues.

      General and administrative expenses were $3.9 million in the first half of
2004 (11.7 percent of revenues), up from $3.7 million (13.2 percent of revenues)
for the first half of 2003. Direct costs associated with our efforts to comply
with Sarbanes-Oxley section 404 totaled approximately $0.1 million during the
first half of 2004. We expect future general and administrative expenses to
decrease as a percentage of revenues as a result of our restructuring
initiatives to date to improve operating efficiencies, as well as anticipated
revenue growth.

      Restructuring costs were $0.1 million for the first half of 2004 and $0.5
million for the first half of 2003 (See detailed discussion of these costs
above).

      PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. We did not record an income tax provision for
our domestic operations in either the first half of 2004 or 2003, as we continue
to provide a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes". As in our prior assessments, we considered current and previous
performance and other relevant factors in determining the sufficiency of our
valuation allowance. Objective factors, such as current and previous operating
losses, were given substantially more weight than our outlook for future
profitability. Until such time as a consistent pattern of sufficient
profitability is established, no tax benefit will be recognized associated with
the Company's pre-tax accounting losses and a full income tax provision will not
be provided on any future pre-tax accounting income. A provision of $0.1 million
was recorded for taxes related to our foreign operations during the first half
of 2004.

      NET LOSS. Due to the factors described above, net loss for the first half
of 2004 was $3.6 million compared with $4.8 million for the first half of 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Our capital requirements have principally related to working capital needs
and capital expenditures. These requirements have been met through a combination
of issuances of securities and internally generated funds.

      We had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $35.0 million
at June 30, 2004 compared with $35.4 million at December 31, 2003.

      Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities were $0.2 million in
the first six months of 2004 compared with $(0.2) million in the first six
months of 2003. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2004
was due to an increase of cash collections on deferred revenues of approximately
$2.3 million compared with the first six months of 2003.

      Cash flows used in investing activities were $4.4 million in the first six
months of 2004 compared with $0.7 million in the first six months of 2003. The
increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the purchase
of $3.9 million in short-term investments during the first six months of 2004.
Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2004 were $0.6 million compared
with $0.7 million for the first six months of 2003.

      Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities were $(0.1) million
in the first six months of 2004 compared with $0.4 million in the first six
months of 2003. During the first six months of 2004, we generated proceeds of
approximately $1.1 million from the issuance of common stock through our
Employee Stock Purchase Plan and employee stock option exercises. We also used
$1.2 million in cash to repurchase 0.4 million shares of our common stock. The
$0.4 million in cash provided by financing activities during the first six
months of 2003 was primarily from issuances of common stock under our Employee
Stock Purchase Plan.

      We conduct operations in leased facilities under operating leases expiring
at various dates through 2011. The contractual obligations under these lease
commitments were comprised of the following as of June 30, 2004:

* We have sub-leased portions of these facilities under operating leases.
Anticipated cash receipts from these executed sub-lease arrangements have been
taken into account when deriving expected cash outflow on operating lease
commitments in the preceding table. The above tables do not reflect estimated
cash receipts for our sub-lease space in which we have received letters of
intent.

      Our expected principal cash requirements for the remainder of 2004 are:
(i) capital expenditures between $2.0 and $2.5 million, primarily for computer
and software equipment, (ii) working capital requirements, (iii) net payments on
operating leases of approximately $2.5 million, and (iv) stock repurchases of up
to $2.0 million. We believe there is sufficient cash on hand to meet these cash
requirements, as well as our cash requirements for the foreseeable future.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

      In July 2004, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program
for the third quarter of 2004. Under this program, management may spend up to
$2.0 million, at its discretion, for the repurchase of our common stock in the
open market, subject to Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines and
restrictions set forth in Rule 10b-18.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

      The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
