PART I
ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

General

         John H. Harland Company (the "Company") is a Georgia corporation
incorporated in 1923. The Company is a leading provider of printed products and
software sold to financial institutions, including banks, credit unions,
brokerage houses and financial software companies. The Company's subsidiary,
Scantron Corporation ("Scantron") is a leading provider of data collection and
assessment products and services sold primarily to the educational, financial
institution and commercial markets.

         The Company serves its major markets through three primary business
segments: Printed Products, Software and Services and Scantron. Each of these
three segments is described below. Reference is made to Note 12 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements on page F31 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K
with respect to information concerning the Company's business segments.

Recent Developments

         The Company completed three acquisitions in 2001, each of which the
Company believes strengthens its position in key market segments. The three
acquisitions were:

         ImTran, Inc. acquired in March, 2001. ImTran was a data collection and
document imaging firm. The acquired operation is now part of the Company's
Scantron segment.

         Scanning Systems, acquired in October, 2001. Scanning Systems was a
provider of optical mark reading hardware and scannable forms primarily for the
educational market. The acquired assets are now part of the Company's Scantron
segment.

         DocuPrint, Inc., acquired in October, 2001. DocuPrint was a
manufacturer of internal bank forms. The acquired assets are part of the
Company's Printed Products Segment.

         Recent developments also include the appointment of Darryl W. Jackson
as president and chief operating officer of the Company. Mr. Jackson joined the
Company in September 2001 and now directs operations for the Company's three
business segments.

         The Company's three business segments introduced a number of new
products and services in 2001. The Company believes these new products and
services help strengthen its relationships with its customers and its position
in the marketplace. These new products are described below.

Printed Products

         The Printed Products segment ("Printed Products") includes the
Company's checks operations, as well as its direct marketing business and
computer checks and forms business. Segment sales of $527.3 million accounted
for 71% of the Company's total sales for the year.

         Printed Products' traditional products are checks and forms, including
personal and business checks and computer checks, as well as internal bank
forms. Printed Products also produces a variety of financial documents in
conjunction with personal or small business financial software packages.

         Printed Products has two primary competitors in the sale of checks to
financial institutions. They are national financial printers that specialize in
check printing. The Company believes that Printed Products is the second-largest
producer of checks and related forms for financial institutions in the United
States. One of Printed Products' competitors has substantially greater sales and
financial resources than the Company.

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

         Printed Products markets its products and services primarily in the
United States, although there is different market penetration in the Caribbean
and Mexico. Printed Products has two distinct sales forces. One sales force
focuses on the financial institution market, including community, regional and
national banks, credit unions and brokerage houses. The second sales force
concentrates on financial software companies and office supply superstores.

         Printed Products maintains 15 production facilities in the United
States, which consist of nine imprint plants, two computer checks facilities,
one facility dedicated to direct marketing and brokerage production and three
forms and specialty production facilities. Printed Products also has an imprint
facility in Puerto Rico. The Company has a 51% ownership in a check-printing
company in Mexico, which has one production facility. One imprint facility and
one computer check facility are being consolidated into a single facility. One
specialty plant is also being consolidated.

         In 2000, the Company began converting its imprint facilities from
offset printing to digital printing technology, which the Company believes is a
more efficient technology. By the end of 2001, five imprint facilities had been
converted to digital, and the remaining four plants will be converted by
mid-year 2002. The conversion of all nine facilities will cost approximately $40
million when it is completed.

         The Company has brought customer service for its personal checks
business back in house, a program that began in 2000. Customer service for this
part of the Company's business had been outsourced in 1996.

         Principal raw materials used by Printed Products include safety paper,
form paper and MICR bond paper. Printed Products purchases other material, such
as vinyl, inks, checkboards, packaging material and miscellaneous supplies, from
a number of suppliers. The Company believes that adequate raw materials will be
available to support Printed Products operations.

         The Company believes that the loss of any one customer in the Printed
Products segment would not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated operations.

Software and Services

         Software and Services includes Harland Financial Solutions and Harland
Analytical Services. These two parts of the Company's business provide financial
institutions with a variety of products and services that are designed to help
them strengthen profitable relationships with their customers. These products
and services include lending and mortgage origination and closing applications,
database marketing software, host processing applications and business
intelligence solutions.

         Harland Financial Solutions, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, is
composed of Delivery Systems, Financial Intelligence, Host Processing and
Mortgage Services.

         Delivery Systems sells loan and deposit origination and compliance
software to the financial institution market. Delivery Systems sells what the
Company believes is the most complete product suite in the industry, including
solutions for lending, account opening, sales management and loan underwriting.
Competition within this market varies by financial institution size, but the
Company believes Delivery Systems is the market leader.

                                       -4-

         Financial Intelligence helps financial institutions increase the
profitability of customer relationships through customer relationship management
("CRM") software, marketing customer information file ("MCIF") software and
branch automation software.

         Financial Intelligence's CRM software, Touche(TM), is an
enterprise-wide system that allows financial institutions to manage every aspect
of the customer relationship. Touche was launched in mid-2001, and the Company
believes it is one of the most complete CRM solutions designed specifically for
financial institutions.

         Financial Intelligence's MCIF software allows financial institutions to
analyze the profitability of customer relationships at both the account and
household level. It can also enable financial institutions to import data, such
as demographic and geographic information, that help identify products customers
are most likely to purchase. Financial institutions use this information to
implement targeted marketing campaigns.

         Financial Intelligence's branch automation solution, Encore!, provides
comprehensive sales, service and contact management capabilities for the branch
office or telephone banking center. Encore! operates in traditional
client/server as well as thin client web-based environments.

         Host Processing sells host processing application software for credit
unions. Its products centralize member information and offer real-time
processing of transactions from every delivery channel. It markets these
products under the ULTRADATA(R) name.

         Mortgage Services develops, markets and provides maintenance services
for mortgage software. Like Delivery Systems, Mortgage Services is largely a
compliance business.

         Software and Services also includes Harland Analytical Services, which
was formed in September 2000. Harland Analytical Services sells behavioral
models to financial institutions, enabling them to, among other things, identify
their customers most at risk for switching financial institutions, as well as
identifying a consumer's propensity to purchase a financial product and the
financial product a consumer is most likely to purchase next.

         The Company believes that the loss of any one customer in the Software
and Services segment would not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated operations.

Scantron

         Scantron Corporation ("Scantron") was founded in 1972 and acquired by
the Company in 1988. Scantron is a leading provider of data collection, testing
and assessment, and field maintenance services. Its products and services
include scannable forms, scanning equipment, imaging software and survey
services.

         Scantron has a solid leadership position in the in-classroom education
market, where more than 90% of all high schools and 80% of all colleges and
universities use a Scantron product. In addition to the traditional Scantron
system, which consists of a scanner, forms and software, Scantron has introduced
new products for the education market. One of these products is Classroom
Wizard(TM), which the Company believes is the first real-time testing solution
for the in-classroom education market. Students take tests using handheld
devices that provide instantaneous feedback to both the student and teacher.

         With the addition of document imaging through the ImTran acquisition,
Scantron now provides a total solution for customers' forms-based transactions,
including printing, distributing, processing and electronic archiving.

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

         Scantron's markets are diverse and competitive. In addition to the
education market, Scantron markets its products to the commercial and financial
institution markets. The Company believes Scantron is the second-largest
provider of data collection systems to commercial and educational markets in the
United States.

         Scantron's field services operation provides maintenance services for
scanners, printers and network systems. It competes with various organizations
that provide installation and maintenance services, including technology
manufacturers, and other national and local field service and maintenance
companies.

         Scantron markets its products and services primarily through inside and
outside sales and services representatives in the United States and Canada.
Scantron's products are also marketed internationally through distributors.

         Scantron purchases a majority of its paper from one supplier. It
purchases scanner components from equipment manufacturers and supply firms. The
Company believes Scantron can continue to obtain such materials or suitable
substitutes in acceptable quantities and at acceptable prices to continue all
operations.

         There is a seasonal nature to Scantron's business in the educational
market, but it does not significantly affect the Company's consolidated results.

         The Company believes that the loss of any one Scantron customer would
not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's consolidated operations.

Patents and Trademarks

         The Company has patents on several products and processes and
trademarks on several of its products and services. While the Company believes
these patents and trademarks to be of value, it does not consider any of them to
be critical to its operations.

Employees

         As of December 31, 2001, the Company and its subsidiaries employed
approximately 5,200 people.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         As of December 31, 2001, the Company and its subsidiaries owned and
leased facilities throughout the United States and in Puerto Rico and Mexico.
The Printed Products facilities consist of nine imprint plants, two computer
checks facilities, one facility dedicated to direct marketing and brokerage
production and three forms and specialty production facilities. The Company also
leases a production facility in Puerto Rico. The Company has a 51% ownership in
a check printing company in Mexico, which has one production facility.

         The Software and Services segment leases office space for sales and
service activities in ten states.

         The Scantron subsidiary conducts its business in two facilities located
in California and Nebraska and leases small amounts of space for its field
services activities in various states.

         The Company owns nine of the Printed Product facilities and one of the
Scantron facilities and leases the remainder of its properties. These leases
have expiration dates ranging from 2002 to 2012. The Company also owns three
buildings located in Atlanta, Georgia which houses its Printed Products support
and administrative services and also its corporate offices.

JOHN H. HARLAND COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

         John H. Harland Company (the "Company") operates its business in three
segments. The Printed Products segment ("Printed Products") includes checks and
direct marketing activities marketed primarily to financial institutions.

         The Software and Services segment ("Software") is focused on the
financial institution market and includes lending and mortgage origination and
closing applications, database marketing software, host processing applications
and business intelligence solutions.

         The Scantron segment ("Scantron") represents products and services sold
by the Company's Scantron subsidiary including scanning equipment and software,
scannable forms, survey solutions and field maintenance services. Scantron sells
these products and services to the commercial, financial institution and
education markets.

Results of Operations
2001 versus 2000

         Consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $743.2
million compared to $720.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an
increase of 3.1%. Printed Products sales were $527.3 million in 2001 compared to
$567.5 million in 2000, a decrease of 7.1%. The largest decrease in Printed
Products occurred in traditional check printing operations where an 11.2% volume
decrease primarily reflected a decline in orders received from a direct check
marketer and the loss of market share. A gain in share in the community bank
market was more than offset by a decline in the large bank market. The impact of
these two factors was moderated by an improvement of 3.7% in average price per
unit. Sales in direct marketing also decreased due to the general economic
slowdown which resulted in lower credit card promotions and fewer openings of
brokerage accounts.

         Software sales increased 100.7% from $60.5 million in 2000 to $121.3
million in 2001 primarily due to the acquisition of Concentrex Incorporated
("Concentrex")(see Note 2). Comparing the September through December periods of
2000 and 2001, where the results are comparable relative to the acquisition of
Concentrex, Software sales decreased 3.2% in 2001 compared to the 2000 period.
This decrease was due to the Company's decision to exit from unprofitable
product lines, an increase in usage-based contracts and a higher proportion of
term license agreements compared with perpetual agreements. The usage-based
contracts and term license agreements defer contract payments and revenue
recognition into future periods which should mitigate revenue volatility in the
future as those deferred revenues are recognized on a more stable, predictable
basis.

         Scantron's sales were $95.9 million in 2001 compared to $93.4 million
in 2000, an increase of 2.7%. The increase in Scantron's sales was primarily due
to acquisitions and internal growth in Scantron's field services and survey
solutions divisions. In 2001, Scantron's scanning division sales were relatively
flat compared to 2000 with increased sales in forms products and additional
sales related to its acquisition of Scanning Systems (see Note 2) being offset
by a decrease in optical mark reading equipment sales, a result of a shift to
greater use of on-line technologies.

         Consolidated gross profit increased by 14.2% from $294.1 million in
2000 to $335.9 million in 2001 and increased as a percentage of sales from 40.8%
in 2000 to 45.2% in 2001. The increase in consolidated gross profit was the
result of cost management and productivity improvement initiatives and a
favorable change in sales mix. Printed Products gross profit decreased 4.9% in
2001 from 2000 due to lower volumes in checks and in direct marketing. However,
Printed Products gross profit as a percentage of sales increased from 37.1% in
2000 to 38.0% in 2001, a result of the combination of the increase in average
price per unit, process improvements and new technology. Software's gross
profit, as a percent of sales, increased to 67.8% in 2001 from 58.0% in 2000

                                      -F2-

<PAGE>

primarily due to a full year's effect of the Concentrex acquisition. Scantron's
gross profit increased by 9.8% over 2000 and increased as a percentage of sales
to 55.3% in 2001 from 51.7% in 2000 due to lower costs resulting from
restructuring in 2000 and efficiencies gained from consolidating printing
operations into a single facility in 2001.

         Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A")
totaled $233.3 million in 2001 compared to $201.7 million in 2000, an increase
of 15.7%. As a percentage of sales, SG&A increased from 28.0% in 2000 to 31.4%
in 2001. The increase was primarily due to the addition of Concentrex operations
which had higher SG&A costs in relation to sales than the Company's other
operations. Compensation costs of $3.0 million associated with accelerated
vesting of certain restricted stock grants made in 2001 as a result of the
Company's favorable stock price performance also contributed to the increase
(see Note 7). The increase in SG&A costs was moderated by decreased expenses due
to employee positions eliminated in a reorganization that occurred in 2000 and
also due to lower customer service costs in Printed Products resulting from a
reduction in contract payments to a service provider.

         During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of $14.5 million (see Note 3) which was primarily for impairment of
intangible assets and severance-related expenses. The impairment of intangibles
was a result of the Company's examination during the fourth quarter of the
long-term viability of product offerings in two of its software operations.
Subsequent to the acquisition of Concentrex in August 2000, the Company decided
to discontinue certain DOS-based products and migrate current customers to
similar Concentrex product offerings or to a web-based product currently in
development. As a result of this decision, the remaining intangibles associated
with these products were written off. Due to lower than anticipated sales of a
new version of an existing product, the Company revised the long-term prospects
of another of its software operations. The revision of expectations required an
adjustment of the carrying value of the operation's long-term assets to the
calculated value based on discounted projected cash flows. The impairment
charges for these two actions had a total pre-tax impact of $9.4 million, or
$7.9 million after tax. The severance costs resulted primarily from a
reorganization of the Company into three distinct segments. In connection with
the reorganization during the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company eliminated 145
positions, which resulted in a pre-tax charge of $4.3 million, or $2.6 million
after tax.

         Amortization of intangibles in 2001 increased by $4.7 million from 2000
primarily due to the Concentrex acquisition in August 2000.

         Other Income (Expense) increased from an expense of $6.2 million in
2000 to $17.7 million in 2001. The increase was primarily due to the combination
of a $7.8 million write-down in 2001 of the Company's equity investment in
Netzee, Inc. ("Netzee") and a $2.9 million gain on the sale of a Company
investment in 2000. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest
expense due to decreases in debt levels and interest rates.

         The Company's effective income tax rate was 45.0% in 2001 and 47.1% in
2000. The effective rate in 2001 included the impact of a change in the
valuation allowance associated with a portion of the tax benefit related to the
Netzee capital loss. The effective rate in 2000 reflected the impact of
non-deductible costs including acquired in-process research and development and
impairment of intangibles that were in restructuring costs. See Note 5 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements for factors affecting the tax rate in each
year.

                                      -F3-

         Net income for 2001 was $39.0 million compared to $28.7 million for
2000. Basic and diluted earnings per share for 2001 were $1.34 and $1.31,
respectively, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.01 and
$1.00 in 2000. Included in 2001 were charges for the write-down of the
investment in Netzee, costs associated with accelerated vesting of stock-based
compensation and severance costs related to a plant consolidation which reduced
diluted earnings by $0.27 per share. Included in 2000 were charges for
restructuring and acquired in-process research and development costs, which
reduced diluted earnings by $0.66 per share. These were offset partially by a
gain on the sale of an investment, which increased earnings per share by $0.10.
The acquisition of Concentrex had a dilutive impact on 2000 earnings of $0.10
per share.

Results of Operations
2000 versus 1999

         Consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $720.7
million compared to $702.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an
increase of 2.6%. Printed Products sales were $567.5 million in 2000 compared to
$577.7 million in 1999, a decrease of 1.8%. The largest decrease in Printed
Products occurred in traditional check printing operations where a 6.0% volume
decrease was due to a decline in orders received from a direct check marketer
and the loss of certain large customers resulting from continued consolidation
in the financial institution industry. The average price per unit in traditional
check printing operations grew by 2.7% and partially offset the impact of lower
volumes. Direct marketing volume and sales also declined in 2000.

         Software sales increased 120.0% from $27.5 million in 1999 to $60.5
million in 2000 primarily due to the acquisition of Concentrex (see Note 2).
Sales from the acquired operations totaled $36.8 million for the period from
August 23, 2000 (date of acquisition) to December 31, 2000. Sales in previously
existing Software operations were down compared to 1999 due to a delay in the
delivery of a new loan and deposit origination product and slower than
anticipated sales of database marketing software products.

         Scantron's sales were $93.4 million in 2000 compared to $97.6 million
in 1999, a decrease of 4.3%. The decrease in sales was primarily due to the
divestiture of Scantron Quality Computers ("SQC") in December 1999. Adjusted for
the divestiture of SQC, Scantron sales increased 2.2% with the increases
occurring in its scanning and survey divisions. Scantron's field services
division had a slight decrease in sales compared to 1999.

         Consolidated gross profit increased by 11.3% from $264.3 million in
1999 to $294.1 million in 2000 and increased as a percentage of sales from 37.6%
in 1999 to 40.8% in 2000. The increase in Printed Products gross profit as a
percentage of sales to 37.1% in 2000 from 35.0% in 1999 accounted for most of
the consolidated gross profit increase. Printed Products gross profit
improvement resulted primarily from a price increase, a favorable product
pricing/mix and improvement in productivity due to the implementation of new
technology and price enhancements. Software's gross profit, as a percentage of
sales, increased to 58.0% in 2000 from 52.0% in 1999. Scantron's gross profit
increased by 0.9% over 1999 and increased as a percentage of sales to 51.7% in
2000 from 49.0% in 1999 due to product mix and the divestiture of SQC in 1999,
which had lower margins.

          SG&A totaled $201.7 million in 2000, an increase of 9.0% over 1999. As
a percentage of sales, SG&A increased from 26.3% in 1999 to 28.0% in 2000. The
increase was due in part to the addition of Concentrex operations which had
higher SG&A costs in relation to sales than the Company's traditional
operations. The impact of the Concentrex acquisition was partially offset by
decreases in corporate expenditures relating to Year 2000 and other projects in
1999.

         During the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of $14.5 million (see Note 3) which was primarily for impairment of
intangible assets and severance-related expenses. The impairment of intangibles
was a result of the Company's examination during the fourth quarter of the
long-term viability of product offerings in two of its software operations.
Subsequent to the acquisition of Concentrex in August 2000, the Company decided

charges for these two actions had a total pre-tax impact of $9.4 million, or
$7.9 million after tax. The severance costs resulted primarily from a
reorganization of the Company into three distinct segments. In connection with
the reorganization during the fourth quarter, the Company eliminated 145
positions, which resulted in a pre-tax charge of $4.3 million, or $2.6 million
after tax.

         Amortization of intangibles in 2000 increased by $3.3 million from 1999
primarily due to the Concentrex acquisition in August 2000.

         Interest expense increased by $3.2 million in 2000 due to increases in
debt levels related to the financing of the Concentrex acquisition and
refinancing of existing debt.

         Other income - net increased $1.8 million in 2000 due primarily to a
gain on the sale of a Company investment in the fourth quarter.

         The Company's effective income tax rate was 47.1% in 2000 and 37.7% in
1999. The effective rate increased due to the impact of non-deductible costs in
2000, including acquired in-process research and development, impairment of
intangibles included in restructuring costs and Concentrex-related intangibles
amortization. The increase between years was moderated by an increase in tax
credits in 2000. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for factors
affecting the tax rate in each year.

         Net income for 2000 was $28.7 million compared to $42.7 million for
1999. Basic and diluted earnings per share for 2000 were $1.01 and $1.00,
respectively, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.39 and
$1.37 in 1999. Included in 2000 were charges for restructuring and acquired
in-process research and development costs, which reduced diluted earnings by
$0.66 per share. These were offset partially by a gain on the sale of
investments, which increased earnings per share by $0.10. The acquisition of
Concentrex had a dilutive impact on 2000 earnings of $0.10 per share.

Financial Condition, Capital
Resources and Liquidity

         Cash flows provided from operations in 2001 were $133.7 million, an
increase of 31.6% over $101.6 million for 2000. The increase in cash provided by
operations was due primarily to increases in net income adjusted for
depreciation and amortization. Financing activities used $79.2 million in 2001
compared to providing $69.8 million in 2000. The primary uses of funds in 2001
were to fund reductions of outstanding debt balances, capital expenditures,
refundable contract payments, dividend payments to shareholders and purchases of
treasury stock.

                                      -F5-

<PAGE>

         Capital expenditures totaled $47.5 million in 2001 compared to $40.5
million in 2000. The increase in capital expenditures related primarily to
process improvement activities in Printed Products. During 2001, the Company
expended approximately $17.5 million related to digital printing costs compared
to $16.3 million in 2000. In 2002, capital expenditures are forecasted to be in
the $38.0 million to $42.0 million range and will include further digital
technology implementation and process improvements.

         In March 2000, the Company's Board of Directors extended a program
authorizing the repurchase of the Company's outstanding common stock of up to
3.1 million shares with an authorization for an additional 2.9 million shares
for a total of up to 6.0 million shares. Shares repurchased under this program
may be held in treasury, used for acquisitions, used to fund the Company's stock
benefit and compensation plans or for other corporate purposes. In March 2001,
the Company completed the original authorization. The total cost of the 3.1
million shares repurchased was $57.5 million. As of December 31, 2001, the
Company has repurchased 445,146 shares of its common stock under the additional
authorization at a cost of approximately $9.1 million.

         As of December 31, 2001, the Company's accumulated other comprehensive
income totaled $3.7 million and consisted of net unrealized gains on
investments, net changes in fair value of cash flow hedging instruments and
foreign currency translation adjustments. In September 2001, the Company's
investment in Netzee was written down to its market value due to the Company's
evaluation that the decline in the value of Netzee stock was other than
temporary.

         The Company has a $325.0 million revolving credit facility with a
syndicate of banks. The Credit Facility matures in 2004 and may be used for
general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and includes both direct
borrowings and letters of credit. As of December 31, 2001, direct borrowings
totaled $124.0 million under the facility. There were $4.4 million in
outstanding letters of credit, which were issued under the credit facility,
leaving $196.6 million available for borrowings at December 31, 2001.

         In November 2000, in conjunction with the sale of certain assets to
Netzee, the Company extended a guaranty to a financial institution, on behalf of
Netzee, of Automated Clearing House exposures up to an amount not to exceed
$15.0 million. In March 2001, the guaranty was terminated with no liability to
the Company.

         On December 31, 2001, the Company had $10.1 million in cash and cash
equivalents and $196.6 million available for borrowing under the credit
facility. The Company believes that its current cash position, funds from
operations and the availability of funds under the credit facility will be
sufficient to meet anticipated requirements for working capital, dividends,
capital expenditures and other corporate needs. Management is not aware of any
condition that would materially alter this trend. The Company also believes that
it possesses sufficient unused debt capacity and access to equity capital
markets to pursue additional acquisition opportunities.

Acquisitions

         In March 2001, the Company's Scantron subsidiary acquired ImTran, Inc.
("ImTran"). ImTran was a data collection and document capture solutions firm
specializing in automated data collection and document imaging. In October 2001,
the Company's Printed Products segment acquired the assets of DocuPrint,
Incorporated ("DocuPrint"). DocuPrint produced forms for major financial
institutions. Also in October 2001, the Company's Scantron subsidiary acquired
substantially all the assets of the Scanning Systems division of Associated
Business Products, Inc., a subsidiary of Global DocuGraphix, Inc. for
approximately $6.0 million in cash.

         The assets acquired through acquisitions in 2001 totaled $7.5 million.
Of the total acquisition costs, $5.7 million was allocated to goodwill. All
consideration was paid in cash that was funded with proceeds from the Company's
credit facility.

         On August 23, 2000, the Company completed its cash tender offer for the
outstanding common stock of Concentrex. The acquired operations provide
technology-powered solutions to deliver financial services, including a broad
range of traditional software and services integrated with e-commerce solutions
to over 5,000 financial institutions of all types and sizes in the United
States. Consideration totaled $146.9 million of which approximately $100.0
million was funded from a credit facility obtained by the Company (see Note 4).

         As part of the Concentrex acquisition, the Company acquired in-process
research and development costs of $8.2 million, which were expensed at
acquisition, and represented the fair value of certain acquired research and
development projects that were determined to have not reached technological
feasibility.

         A portion of the Concentrex acquisition cost was allocated to the net
realizable value of certain assets of the acquired operation's online banking
and electronic payments business which the Company identified as a business held
for sale. In November 2000, these assets, which totaled $8.2 million, were sold
to Netzee in exchange for Netzee common stock. The Company also extended a $5.0
million line of credit to Netzee of which $3.0 million and $5.0 million were
outstanding at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. In
September 2001, the Company determined that the decline in market value of its
investment in Netzee was other than temporary and the investment was written
down to its market value, resulting in a recognized loss before income taxes of
$7.8 million.

                                      -F7-

<PAGE>

         All acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, the results of operations of each have been
included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of
acquisition.

Outlook

         The Company believes that its financial position continues to be strong
and expects a positive cash flow in all business segments in 2002. The Company
projects an increase in the Printed Products segment's 2002 profits due to
implementation of new technology and process improvements. Printed Products
sales are expected to stabilize during the second half of 2002 compared with the
recent trend of declining sales. The Company anticipates the Software and
Services segment's profitability will continue to improve steadily during 2002
due to increased sales of existing products and services as well as new products
and services. The Scantron segment is also projected to increase sales and
profits in 2002 through internal growth in sales and a full year's impact from
acquisitions. Consolidated SG&A, as a percentage of sales, is expected to
increase slightly in 2002. The effect of discontinuing goodwill amortization
with the implementation of a new accounting pronouncement (see the New
Accounting Standards section of Note 1) will have a positive effect on the
Company's net income.

Risk Factors and
Cautionary Statements

         When used in this report and in subsequent filings by the Company with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases and in
written or oral statements made by authorized representatives of the Company,
the words or phrases "should result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is
anticipated," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are necessarily
subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those
discussed below that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company's historical experience and its present expectations or projections.
Caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date such statements are made and which
may or may not be based on historical experiences and/or trends which may or may
not continue in the future. The Company does not undertake and specifically
declines any obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions which
may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances
occurring after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

         Various factors may affect the Company's financial performance,
including, but not limited to, those factors discussed below and could cause the
Company's actual results for future periods to differ from any opinions,
statements or projections expressed with respect thereto. Such differences could
be material and adverse. Many variables will impact the ability to achieve sales
levels, improve service quality, achieve production efficiencies and reduce
expenses in Printed Products. These include, but are not limited to, the
implementation of new digital technology, automated ordering systems and call
service centers used in the Company's manufacturing and customer service
operations.

         Several factors outside the Company's control could negatively impact
check revenue. These include the continuing expansion of alternative payment
systems such as credit cards, debit cards and other forms of electronic commerce
or on-line payment systems. Check revenues could also be adversely affected by
continued consolidation of financial institutions, competitive check pricing and
the impact of governmental laws and regulations. There can be no assurances that
the Company will not lose significant customers or that any such loss could be
offset by the addition of new customers.

                                      -F8-

<PAGE>

         While the Company believes substantial growth opportunities exist in
the Software and Services segment, there can be no assurances that the Company
will achieve its revenue or earnings growth targets. The Company believes its
software business still represents a turnaround and therefore has many inherent
risk factors, including but not limited to the retention of employee talent and
the retention of customers. Also, variables exist in the development of new
software products, including the timing and costs of the development effort,
product performance, functionality, product acceptance, competition, and general
changes in economic conditions or U.S. financial markets.

         Several factors outside of the Company's control could affect results
in the Scantron segment. These include the rate of adoption of new electronic
data collection, testing and assessment methods, which could negatively impact
current forms, scanner sales and related service revenue. The Company continues
to develop products and services that it believes offers state of the art
electronic data collection, testing and assessment solutions. However, variables
exist in the development of new testing methods and technologies, including the
timing and costs of the development effort, product performance, functionality,
market acceptance, adoption rates, competition and the funding of education at
the federal, state and local level, all of which could have an impact on the
Company's business.

Market Risk

         All financial instruments held by the Company are held for purposes
other than trading and are exposed to primarily two types of market risks:
interest rate and equity price.

Interest Rate Risk

         The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable rate debt.
At December 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding variable rate debt of $124.0
million. In order to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, the
Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements, which allow it to raise
funds at floating rates and effectively swap them into fixed rates. At December
31, 2001, the notional principal amount of interest rate swaps outstanding was
$98.0 million. The Company believes that its interest rate risk at December 31,
2001 was minimal. These derivative financial instruments are viewed as risk
management tools and are entered into for hedging purposes only. The Company
does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative
purposes.

         The fair value of the swaps, which represent what the Company would
have to pay to terminate the swaps, reflected a loss of $2.2 million ($1.3
million net of income taxes) at December 31, 2001. The fair value of the swaps
was recognized on the balance sheet in other liabilities with a corresponding
charge to accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders'
equity. Charges and credits to other comprehensive income will net to zero over
the term of interest rate swap agreements that are not terminated early.

Equity Price Risk

         The fair value of the Company's investments is primarily affected by
fluctuations in the market price for the common stock of Bottomline
Technologies, Inc. and Netzee. The change in market value has been accounted for
as a component of other comprehensive income. In September 2001, the Company's
management determined that the decline in Netzee's market value was other than
temporary. The investment was written down to its market value resulting in a
recognized loss of $7.8 million. The following presents the Company's investment

Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and Statement No. 142, "Goodwill
and Other Intangibles" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 addresses financial accounting and
reporting for business combinations. Under SFAS 141, all business combinations
are to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Under SFAS 142,
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but
are tested at least annually for impairment. Separable intangible assets with
defined lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The
provisions of SFAS 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets recognized on the
Company's financial statements on January 1, 2002 and thereafter. In 2001,
amortization of goodwill totaled $11.2 million, most of which was non-deductible
for tax purposes. The Company has not yet assessed the other financial statement
impact of adopting SFAS 142. The Company has engaged a third party for
valuations of the businesses which have associated goodwill balances and will
determine whether an impairment exists by June 30, 2002.

         In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 144") which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 will be effective for the
Company beginning January 1, 2002. The Company does not believe the adoption of
SFAS 144 will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

         The Company has identified certain of its accounting policies as
critical to its business operations and the understanding of its results of
operations. These policies include revenue recognition, impairment of long-lived
assets, goodwill and other intangibles, software and other development costs and
income taxes.

         The Company considers its revenue recognition policy as critical to its
reported results of operations primarily in its Software and Services segment.
This segment utilizes estimates of efforts to complete a project in percentage
of completion calculations to recognize revenue from licensing of software with
significant amounts of tailoring and/or customization. Due to uncertainties
inherent in these estimates, actual results, including the amounts of revenue
and expenses recognized, could differ from those estimates.

         The Company reviews investments, long-lived assets and certain
intangibles for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Any impairment losses
are reported in the period in which the recognition criteria are first applied
based on the fair value of the asset. In 2001, the Company recorded a charge of
$7.8 million before income taxes for a write-down of an equity investment. In
2000, the Company recorded a charge of $9.4 million for a write-down of
intangible and other assets.

                                      -F10-

<PAGE>

         The Company makes estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows
in its review of the carrying values of goodwill and other intangibles to assess
recoverability. If these estimates and assumptions change in the future, the
Company may be required to record impairment charges for these assets not
previously recorded. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company will adopt SFAS
142 and will be required to analyze its goodwill for impairment by June 30, 2002
and then at least on an annual basis thereafter.

         The carrying value of the Company's net deferred tax assets assumes the
Company will be able to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax
jurisdictions, based on estimates and assumptions. The Company may be required
to record additional valuation allowances against its deferred tax assets
resulting in additional income tax expense if these estimates and assumptions
change in the future.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation

         The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements
of John H. Harland Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company").
Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Cash Equivalents

         The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a
maturity, when purchased, of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost of
inventory for checks and related forms is determined by average costing. Cost of
scannable forms and hardware component parts inventories is determined by the
first-in, first-out method. Cost of data entry terminals is determined by the
specific identification method.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

         Assets held for disposal are carried at the lower of carrying amount or
fair value, less estimated cost to sell such assets in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The Company
reviews long-lived assets and certain intangibles for impairment when events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable and any impairment losses are reported in the period in which the
recognition criteria are first applied based on the fair value of the asset (see
Note 3).

Investments

         The Company classifies all of its investments as available-for-sale
securities. Such investments consist primarily of U.S. corporate securities and
other equity interests which are stated at market value, with unrealized gains
and losses on such investments reflected, net of tax, as other comprehensive
income in shareholders' equity. Realized gains and losses on investments are
included in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method.
In September 2001, the Company determined that the decline in market value of
Netzee, Inc. ("Netzee") was other than temporary. Accordingly, the Company's
investment in Netzee was written down resulting in a recognized loss of $7.8
million. The following is a summary of investments at December 31, 2001 and 2000
(in thousands):

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

         In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and Statement No. 142, "Goodwill
and Other Intangibles" ("SFAS 142") which address, among other things,
accounting for goodwill and other intangibles. On July 1, 2001, the Company
adopted SFAS 141 and adopted the portions of SFAS 142 that were effective for
goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. See the New
Accounting Standards section of Note 1 regarding the impact of the adoption of
SFAS 142.

         Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the fair value
of net assets of businesses acquired. Other intangible assets consist primarily
of purchased customer lists and noncompete covenants that were acquired in
business combinations. Goodwill acquired prior to July 1, 2001 is amortized on a
straight-line basis over periods from 11 to 40 years. Other intangible assets
are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from two to eight
years. Amortization periods of intangible assets are periodically reviewed to
determine whether events or circumstances warrant revision to estimated useful
lives. Carrying values of goodwill and other intangibles are periodically
reviewed to assess recoverability based on expectations of undiscounted cash
flows and operating income for each related business unit. Impairments are
recognized in operating results if a permanent diminution in value is indicated
(see Note 3).

Refundable Contract Payments

         Certain contracts with the Company's customers involve up-front
payments to the customer. These payments are amortized as a reduction of sales
over the life of the related contract and are refundable from the customer if
the contract is terminated.

Property, Plant and Equipment

         Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation of
buildings is computed primarily by the declining balance method. Depreciation of
equipment, furniture and fixtures is calculated by the straight-line or
sum-of-the-years digits method. Leasehold improvements are amortized by the
straight-line method over the life of the lease or the life of the property,
whichever is shorter. The Company capitalizes the qualifying costs of software
developed or obtained for internal use. Depreciation is computed for internal
use software by using the straight-line method over three to five years.

Revenue Recognition

         Sales of products and services are recorded based on shipment of
products or performance of services. Revenue from maintenance contracts is
deferred and recognized over the period of the agreements. Revenue from
licensing of software with no follow-on obligations on the part of the Company
is recognized upon delivery. Revenue from licensing of software under
usage-based contracts is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement or on
actual usage basis. Revenue from licensing of software under term license
agreements is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. Revenue from
licensing of software with standard installation and training is recognized upon
delivery of the licenses. Revenue from installation and training services is
recognized upon completion of those services. Revenue from licensing of software
with significant amounts of tailoring and/or customization is recognized on a
percentage of completion basis as the services are performed. Estimates of
efforts to complete a project are used in the percentage of completion
calculation. Due to the uncertainties inherent in these estimates, actual
results could differ from those estimates. If the license agreement obligates
the Company to provide post-contract support ("PCS") at no additional cost to
the customer, the revenue related to PCS, which is based on prices charged when
sold separately from the software, is recognized ratably over the support
period.

Stock-Based Compensation

         The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and
related interpretations in accounting for its stock-based compensation plans
and applies the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). The
related disclosures are presented in Note 7.

Earnings Per Common Share

         Earnings per common share for all periods have been computed under the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share." The net income used in the calculation of diluted earnings per common
share is adjusted for the effect of the interest on the conversion of
subordinated debt. The net income used for the calculation of diluted earnings
per common share for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $39,143,000, $28,968,000 and
$42,958,000, respectively. The average number of common shares used in the
calculation of basic earnings per common share for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was
29,073,406, 28,468,887 and 30,637,619, respectively. The average number of
common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in the calculation of
diluted earnings per common share for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 29,984,345,
28,831,637 and 31,261,483, respectively. Dilutive potential common shares that
were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for 2001,
2000 and 1999 were 151,000, 1,011,000, and 615,000, respectively, because they
were anti-dilutive. The dilutive potential common shares relate to options under
stock compensation plans and the effect of the conversion of subordinated debt.

Software and Other Development Costs

         The Company expenses research and development costs, including
expenditures related to development of software that does not qualify for
capitalization.

         The Company accounts for costs to develop or obtain computer software
for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Executive Committee
Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" which requires certain costs to be
capitalized.

         Software development costs incurred prior to the establishment of
technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. Software development costs
incurred after the technological feasibility of the subject software product has
been established are capitalized in accordance with SFAS 86, "Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed."
Capitalized software development costs are amortized on a product-by-product
basis using the estimated economic life of the product on a straight-line basis
over three to four years. Unamortized software development costs in excess of
estimated future net revenues from a particular product are written down to
estimated net realizable value.

Income Taxes

         The Company recognizes a liability or asset for the deferred tax
consequences of temporary differences between financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities.

Risk Management Contracts

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
133"), as amended by Statements No. 137 and No. 138, which provides a
comprehensive and consistent standard for the recognition and measurement of
derivatives and hedging activities. SFAS 133, as amended, requires all
derivative instruments to be recognized in the balance sheet at fair value, and
changes in the fair values of such instruments must be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

                                      -F19-

<PAGE>

         The Company uses derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk.
On the date an interest rate derivative contract is entered into, the Company
designates the derivative as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge.
Changes in derivative fair values that are designated as fair value hedges are
recognized in earnings as offsets to the changes in fair value of related hedged
assets, liabilities and firm commitments. Changes in the derivative fair values
that are designated as cash flow hedges are deferred and recorded as a component
of accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged transactions occur
and are recognized in earnings. The Company's derivative instruments used to
manage interest rate risk are considered highly effective. If the hedging
derivatives would be considered ineffective, the change in fair value would be
immediately recognized in earnings. Derivatives that are executed for risk
management purposes but not designated as hedges under SFAS 133, as amended, are
recorded at their market value and recognized in current earnings.

         The Company formally documents the relationship between hedging
instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives and
strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Company links all
hedges that are designated as fair value hedges to specific assets or
liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments. The Company
links all hedges that are designated as cash flow hedges to forecasted
transactions or to floating-rate liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company
also assesses, both at the inception of the hedge and on an on-going basis,
whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly
effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.
Should it be determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge,
the Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively.

         The Company adopted SFAS 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001. Adoption
of these pronouncements has not had a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations. In 2001, the Company recorded the change in
value related to cash flow hedges to other comprehensive income which was not
material. In 2001, the Company did not have any hedging instruments that were
designated as fair value hedges.

New Accounting Standards

         In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 141
and SFAS 142 (see Goodwill and Intangibles section of Note 1). SFAS 141
addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations. Under
SFAS 141, all business combinations after June 30, 2001 are to be accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible
assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are tested at least
annually for impairment. Separable intangible assets with defined lives will
continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The provisions of SFAS 142
apply to goodwill and intangible assets recognized on the Company's financial
statements on January 1, 2002 and thereafter. In 2001, amortization of goodwill
totaled $11.2 million, most of which was non-deductible for tax purposes. The
Company has not yet assessed the other financial statement impact of adopting
SFAS 142. The Company has engaged a third party for valuations of the businesses
which have associated goodwill balances and will determine whether an impairment
exists by June 30, 2002.

         In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 144") which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 will be effective for the
Company beginning January 1, 2002. The Company does not believe the adoption of
SFAS 144 will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

Reclassifications

         Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1999 and 2000 financial
statements and notes to financial statements to conform to the 2001
classifications.

2. Acquisitions

         In March 2001, the Company's Scantron subsidiary acquired ImTran, Inc.
("ImTran"). ImTran was a data collection and document capture solutions firm
specializing in automated data collection and document imaging. In October 2001,
the Company's Printed Products segment acquired the assets of DocuPrint,
Incorporated ("DocuPrint"). DocuPrint produced forms for major financial
institutions. Also in October 2001, the Company's Scantron subsidiary acquired
substantially all the assets of the Scanning Systems division of Associated
Business Products, Inc., a subsidiary of Global DocuGraphix, Inc. for
approximately $6.0 million in cash.

         The assets acquired through acquisitions in 2001 totaled $7.5 million.
Of the total acquisition costs, $5.7 million was allocated to goodwill in the
Scantron segment. Most of the goodwill was acquired after July 1, 2001 and was
assigned an indefinite life. All consideration was paid in cash that was funded
with proceeds from the Company's credit facility.

         On August 23, 2000, the Company completed a cash tender offer for all
of the outstanding common stock of Concentrex. The acquired operations provided
technology-powered solutions to deliver financial services, including a broad
range of traditional software and services to over 5,000 financial institutions
of all types and sizes in the United States.

         Consideration totaled $146.9 million of which approximately $100.0
million was funded from a credit facility obtained by the Company (see Note 4).

         The acquisition costs were allocated on the basis of the estimated fair
market values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition costs
were allocated as follows and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over
the useful life indicated below (in thousands):

==========================================================================
</TABLE>

         As part of the acquisition, the Company acquired in-process research
and development costs of $8.2 million, which were expensed at acquisition, and
which represented the fair value of certain acquired research and development
projects that were determined to have not reached technological feasibility.

         A portion of the acquisition costs was allocated to the net realizable
value of certain assets of the acquired operation's online banking and
electronic payments business which the Company identified as a business held for
sale. In November 2000, these assets, which totaled $8.2 million, were sold to
Netzee in exchange for Netzee common stock. The Company also extended a $5.0
million line of credit to Netzee of which $3.0 million and $5.0 million were
outstanding at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. In
September 2001, the Company determined that the decline in market value of its
investment in Netzee was other than temporary and the investment was written
down to its market value, resulting in a recognized loss before income taxes of
$7.8 million.

         All acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, the results of operations of each have been
included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of
acquisition.

3. Restructuring Charge

         In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of $14.5 million which was primarily for impairment of intangible assets
and severance costs.

         The impairment of intangibles was a result of the Company's examination
during that quarter of the long-term viability of product offerings in two of
its software operations. Subsequent to the acquisition of Concentrex in August
2000, the Company decided to discontinue certain DOS-based product offerings and
migrate current customers to similar Concentrex product offerings or to a
web-based product currently in development. As a result of this decision, the
remaining intangibles associated with these products were written off. Due to
lower than anticipated sales of a new version of an existing product released in
late 1999, the Company revised the long-term prospects of another of its
software operations. The revision of expectations required an adjustment of the
carrying value of the operation's long-term assets to the calculated value based
on discounted projected cash flows. The impairment charges for these two actions
had a total pre-tax impact of $9.4 million, or $7.9 million after tax.
Restructuring charges by operating segment are presented in Note 12.

         The severance costs resulted primarily from a reorganization of the
Company into three distinct segments. In connection with the reorganization
during the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company eliminated approximately 145
positions, which resulted in a pre-tax charge of $4.3 million, or $2.6 million
after tax.

         The Company has a revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility")
with a syndicate of banks in an amount of $325.0 million. The Credit Facility
matures in 2004 and may be used for general corporate purposes, including
acquisitions, and includes both direct borrowings and letters of credit. The
Credit Facility is unsecured and the Company presently pays a commitment fee of
0.175% on the unused amount of the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit
Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, on the following indices (plus
a margin as defined): the Federal Funds Rate, the SunTrust Bank Base Rate or
LIBOR. The Credit Facility has certain financial covenants including leverage,
fixed charge and minimum net worth tests. The Credit Facility also has
restrictions that limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness,
grant security interests or sell its assets beyond certain amounts.

         At December 31, 2001, the Credit Facility consisted of $124.0 million
in outstanding cash borrowings, $4.4 million in outstanding letters of credit
and $196.6 million available for borrowing. In addition to the outstanding
letters of credit, the Company has outstanding a surety bond in the amount of
$1.1 million issued by an insurance company that covers certain insurance
obligations. The average interest rate in effect on outstanding cash borrowings
at December 31, 2001, including the effect of the Company's interest rate
hedging program (see Note 10), was 5.15%.

         The Company's 6.75% Convertible Subordinated Debentures ("the
Debentures") were redeemed at par in August 2001. At December 31, 2001, there
were no outstanding amounts under the Debentures. Prior to being redeemed, the
Debentures were convertible into common stock of the Company at any time at a
conversion price of $25.17 per share.

         Other long-term debt relates to other miscellaneous obligations. At
December 31, 2001, the Company believes it was in compliance with the covenants
associated with all debt instruments.

         Annual maturities of long-term debt are $0.1 million in 2002, $0.1
million in 2003 and $124.0 million in 2004.

         During 2001, the Company utilized approximately $1.7 million of capital
loss recognized in a prior year to offset unrealized capital gains associated
with investments.

         The Company has established a valuation allowance for certain net
operating loss and capital loss carryforwards. Management believes that, based
on a number of factors, the available objective evidence creates uncertainty
regarding the recoverability of these carryforwards. The valuation adjustment
increased in 2001 due to the Company recording an impairment charge on
investments thereby reducing the utilization of loss carryforwards.
Additionally, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $8.9 million
related to certain deferred tax assets acquired from Concentrex.

6. Shareholders' Equity

         In 2001, the Company purchased 60,000 shares of common stock for $1.0
million to complete a 1999 authorization to purchase up to 3.1 million shares of
the Company's outstanding common stock. Including the purchases made in 2000 and
1999, the Company repurchased 3,100,000 shares for $57.5 million under this
authorization. In 2000, the Board of Directors approved an extension of this
program to include up to an additional 2.9 million shares of common stock. As of
December 31, 2001, 445,146 shares of common stock were purchased for $9.1
million under the additional authorization. The funding of stock purchases came
from internally generated cash. The Company issued 980,236 shares and 295,834
shares of treasury stock under its stock compensation plans for the years ended
2001 and 2000 respectively.

         In 1999, the Company renewed its Shareholder Rights Agreement. The
rights were distributed as a dividend at the rate of one right for each share of
common stock of the Company held by shareholders of record. Each right entitles
shareholders to buy, upon occurrence of certain events, one share of common
stock for $90.00. The rights generally will be exercisable only if a person or
group acquires beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Company's common
stock, or commences a tender or exchange offer that, upon consummation, would
result in a person or group owning 30% or more of the Company's common stock.
Under certain circumstances the rights are redeemable at a price of $.001 per
right. The rights expire on July 5, 2009.

7. Stock Compensation Plans

         Under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"), the Company
is authorized to issue up to 5,100,000 shares of common stock to its employees,
most of whom are eligible to participate. Under the ESPP, eligible employees may
exercise an option to purchase shares of Company stock through payroll
deductions. The option price is 85% of the lower of the beginning-of-quarter or
end-of-quarter market price. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, employees exercised
options to purchase 116,450, 148,415 and 155,413 shares, respectively. Options
granted under the ESPP were at prices ranging from $12.03 to $18.62 in 2001,
$11.98 to $12.75 in 2000 and $10.81 to $16.60 in 1999. At December 31, 2001,
there were 751,318 shares of common stock reserved for purchase under the ESPP.

                                      -F25-

<PAGE>

         Under the Company's 1999 Stock Option Plan, the Company may grant stock
options to key employees to purchase shares of Company stock at no less than the
fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant or issue restricted
stock to such employees. The Company is authorized to issue up to 2,000,000
shares of common stock under the plan. Stock options have a maximum life of ten
years and generally vest ratably over a five-year period beginning on the first
anniversary date of the grant. Upon adoption of the 1999 plan, the Company
terminated a previous plan except for options outstanding thereunder. Options
granted under such plan are generally exercisable ratably over a five-year
period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and have a
maximum life of ten years. Certain options granted in 1998 and 1999 vest per
specified schedules beginning one to five years from the date of the grant.

         In 2000, the Company adopted the 2000 Stock Option Plan which
authorizes shares for issuance through stock options and grants of restricted
stock. In 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment to the
2000 Plan increasing the shares authorized for issuance to a total of 3,000,000
shares. The 2000 Plan is substantially similar to the 1999 Plan, except that the
Company's executive officers are ineligible to receive options or stock grants
thereunder. As of December 31, 2001, there were 5,285,922 shares of common stock
reserved for issuance under these stock option plans.

         Restricted stock grants generally vest over a period of five years,
subject to earlier vesting if the Company's common stock outperforms the S&P 500
in two of three consecutive years. Unearned compensation is recorded at the date
of the award based on the market value of shares issued and is amortized over
the period of restriction. The certificates covering the restricted stock are
held by the Company, but such shares are deemed to be outstanding for all other
purposes. The shares have all the rights of other shares of common stock,
subject to certain restrictions. The restricted stock is generally forfeited if
the employee is terminated for any reason prior to the lapse in restrictions,
other than death or disability.

         In February 2001, the Company effected a voluntary program allowing
certain officers to exchange certain options for a grant of restricted stock.
Options to purchase 840,000 shares with a weighted average exercise price of
$24.09 were exchanged for 295,905 shares of restricted stock. At the same time,
an additional 105,500 shares of restricted stock were granted to such officers
as part of an annual grant. These shares of restricted stock vest to the extent
of one third of the grant when the closing stock price reaches at least $22.50
per share for ten consecutive trading days and two thirds of the grant vest when
the closing stock price similarly reaches at least $27.00 per share. In any
event, such shares vest after five years. In August 2001, the vesting conditions
for one third of these shares were met.

         In 1998, the Board of Directors granted 50,000 restricted shares of the
Company's common stock to the Company's chief executive officer. Of this amount,

         The Company has a deferred compensation plan for its non-employee
directors covering a maximum of 200,000 shares. At December 31, 2001 and 2000,
there were 87,854 and 62,329 shares, respectively, reserved for issuance under
the Plan.

         For the years ending December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company
recognized expense related to stock-based compensation of $5,318,000, $788,000
and $601,000, respectively. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based
compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates
consistent with the method of SFAS 123, the Company's net income and earnings
per share would have changed to the pro forma amounts listed below (in
thousands, except per share amounts):

8. Employee Retirement and Savings Plans

         The Company's Master 401(k) Plan and Trust ("401(k) plan") is a defined
contribution 401(k) plan with an employer match covering any employee of the
Company or a participating affiliate. Participants may contribute on a pretax
and after-tax basis, subject to maximum IRS limits and not exceeding 17% of
annual compensation. The Company matches employee contributions $0.50 for every
dollar up to a maximum Company-matching contribution of 3% of qualified annual
compensation. The Company recognized matching contributions to the 401(k) plan
of $3.3 million in 2001, $3.9 million in 2000, and $3.4 million in 1999.
Additional contributions may be made from accumulated and/or current net
profits. In 2001, an additional contribution to the 401(k) plan of $1.0 million
was recognized by the Company.

                                      -F28-

<PAGE>

         The Company has a non-qualifying deferred compensation plan similar to
the 401(k) plan. This plan provides an opportunity for eligible employees to
contribute additional amounts for retirement savings once they have reached the
maximum contribution amount in the 401(k) plan. The Company's contributions to
this plan during 2001, 2000 and 1999 were not significant.

         The Company has unfunded deferred compensation agreements with certain
officers. The present value of cash benefits payable under the agreements is
being provided over the periods of active employment and totaled $3.8 million at
December 31, 2001 and 2000. The charge to expense for these agreements is not
significant.

9. Postretirement Benefits

         The Company sponsors two defined postretirement benefit plans that
cover qualifying salaried and nonsalaried employees. One plan provides health
care benefits and the other provides life insurance benefits. The medical plan
is contributory and contributions are adjusted annually based on actual claims
experience. The Company's intent is that the retirees provide the majority of
the actual cost of providing the medical plan. The life insurance plan is
noncontributory. Neither plan is funded.

         As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation ("APBO") under such plans was $20.8 million and $17.9
million, respectively. The following table reconciles the plans' beginning and
ending balances of the APBO and reconciles the plans' status to the accrued
postretirement health care and life insurance liability reflected on the balance
sheet as of December 31 (in thousands):

</TABLE>

         In 2000, the Company eliminated employer subsidies for all future
retirees except those that have twenty or more years of service as of December
31, 2000 and retire prior to December 31, 2002. During 1999, benefit eligibility
was extended below age fifty-five to any employee with twenty years of service.

         Medical costs were assumed to increase by 15.0% in 2001 and 12.0% in
2002 and increases are projected to decline gradually to 5% in 2008 and to
remain at that level thereafter. Participant contributions were assumed to
increase by 20% in 2001 and 15% in 2002 and increases are projected to decline
gradually to 5% in 2008 and thereafter. The medical cost and participant
contributions trend rate assumptions could have a significant effect on amounts
reported. An increase of 1.0% in the assumed trend rates would have had the
effect of increasing the APBO by $1.6 million and the NPPC by $102,000. A
decrease of 1.0% in the assumed trend rates would have had the effect of
decreasing the APBO by $1.4 million and the NPPC by $88,000. The weighted
average discount rate used in determining the APBO was 7.0% in 2001, 7.5% in
2000 and 8.0% in 1999, and employee earnings were estimated to increase 3.5%
annually until age 65.

         In 1999, the Company transferred its obligations under certain of its
benefits programs to an existing subsidiary to administer. In connection with
the transfer, the Company sold a minority interest in the subsidiary to a third
party benefits management company.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents,
investments, receivables, accounts payable, borrowings and interest rate risk
management contracts.

         At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the fair values of cash and cash
equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and short-term debt approximated
carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The
estimated fair values of other financial instruments subject to fair value
disclosures are determined based on commercial banker estimates or quoted market
prices or rates for the same or similar instruments, and the related carrying
amounts at December 31 are as follows (in thousands):

         In 2001, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to
manage its exposure to interest rate movements by effectively exchanging
floating rate payments for fixed rate payments without the exchange of the
underlying principal. The interest rate swaps are directly matched against U.S.
dollar LIBOR contracts outstanding under the Company's Credit Facility and are
reset quarterly. Both the interest rate swaps and the Credit Facility mature in
2004. The interest rate swaps are structured to amortize on a quarterly basis so

                                      -F30-

that on a percentage basis, they approximate the Company's forecasted cash
flows. The differential between fixed and variable rates to be paid or received
is accrued as interest rates change in accordance with the agreements and
recognized over the life of the agreements as an adjustment to interest expense.
At December 31, 2001, the notional principal amount of interest rate swaps
outstanding was $98.0 million. The fair value of the swaps is reported on the
balance sheet in other long-term liabilities. The net change in fair value of
the swaps at December 31, 2001 is reported in other comprehensive income. The
swaps are highly effective and no significant amounts for hedge ineffectiveness
were reported in net income during the twelve month period ended December 31,
2001.

         The Company periodically reviews its positions with, and the credit
quality of, the financial institutions that are counterparties to its financial
instruments, and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The
Company would not realize a material loss as of December 31, 2001 in the event
of nonperformance by any one counterparty. The Company enters into transactions
only with financial institution counterparties that have a credit rating of A-,
A3 or better as defined by Standard and Poor's or Moody's Investors Service,
respectively. In addition, the Company limits the amount of investment credit
exposure with any one institution.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to various
legal proceedings and claims. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of
these matters will not have a material effect on its financial statements.

         Total rental expense was $15.8 million in 2001, $13.4 million in 2000
and $11.8 million in 1999. Minimum annual rentals under noncancelable operating
leases at December 31, 2001 are as follows (in thousands):

         At December 31, 2001 the Company has committed to purchase
approximately $6.2 million of digital printing equipment.

         In November 2000, in conjunction with the sale of certain assets to
Netzee, the Company extended a guaranty to a financial institution, on behalf of
Netzee, of Automated Clearing House exposures up to an amount not to exceed
$15.0 million. In March 2001, the guaranty was terminated with no liability to
the Company.

12. Business Segments

         The Company operates its business in three segments. The Printed
Products segment ("Printed Products") includes checks and direct marketing
activities marketed primarily to financial institutions. The Software and
Services segment ("Software") is focused on the financial institution market and
includes lending and mortgage origination and closing applications, database
marketing software, host processing applications and business intelligence
solutions. The Scantron segment ("Scantron") represents products and services
sold by the Company's Scantron subsidiary including scanning equipment and
software, scannable forms, survey solutions and field maintenance services.
Scantron sells these products and services to the commercial, financial
institution and education markets.

         The Company's operations are primarily in the United States and Puerto
Rico. There were no significant intersegment sales and no material amounts of
the Company's sales are dependent upon a single customer. Equity investments as

                                      -F31-

<PAGE>

well as foreign assets are not significant to the consolidated results of the
Company. The Company's accounting policies for segments are the same as those
described in Note 1.

         Management evaluates segment performance based on segment income or
loss before income taxes. Segment income or loss includes restructuring charges
and software and other development costs, but excludes interest income, interest
expense and certain other nonoperating gains and losses, all of which are
considered corporate items. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash and cash
equivalents, deferred income taxes, investments and other assets not employed in
production.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
John H. Harland Company:

         We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of John H. Harland
Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related
consolidated statements of income, cash flows and shareholders' equity for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedule listed in Item 14(a)2. These financial
statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of John H. Harland Company and
its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects the
information set forth therein.

         The financial statements included in this report were prepared by the

matters. Internal Audit and the independent auditors have full and free access
to the Audit Committee.
