              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but
     reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments
     necessary to present fairly the financial position of Consilium, Inc. and
     Subsidiaries ("the Company") as of January 31, 1996 and October 31, 1995,
     including the results of operations and cash flows for the three months
     ended January 31, 1996 and 1995.  Because all the disclosures required by
     generally accepted accounting principles are not included, these interim
     condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
     with the audited financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's
     Annual Report as of and for the year ended October 31, 1995.  The year-end
     condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of October 31, 1995 was
     derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all
     disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

     The results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended January
     31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations and cash
     flows for any future period.

     production costs          $ 465         $ 466
 

3.   Net income per common share is computed using the weighted average number
     of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the
     period.  Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of the dilutive effect
     of stock options as computed using the treasury stock method.

4.   The income tax provision for the three months ended January 31, 1996
     represents taxes on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries, which are
     profitable, and taxes withheld on sales made in certain foreign
     jurisdictions.  The Company has established a valuation allowance against
     its deferred tax asset and reviews this allowance on a periodic basis.  At
     such time that the Company believes that it is more likely than not that a
     portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized, the valuation allowance
     will be reduced.

5.   In the ordinary course of business, various legal actions and claims
     pending have been filed against the Company.  In the opinion of management,
     the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these matters will not
     materially affect the results of operations or financial position of the
     Company.

Results of Operations
---------------------

     This section contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, including statements about expected possible corporate
implementation of FlowStream(R) and expected increased maintenance revenues.
Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-
looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth under the caption
"Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results."

     Revenues.  Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased
     --------                                                                
20% to $9,159,000 compared with $7,619,000 in the first quarter of 1995. The
increase primarily was due to higher product, services, and development
revenues.

   The following table shows the proportion of the Company's total revenue from
each of its three principal geographic regions:

 
                           Three months ended
                               January 31,
                             1996       1995
                             ----       ----

     North America            63%        64%
     Europe                   13%        17%
     Asia/Pacific             24%        19%


     Product license revenues for the three months ended January 31, 1996
increased 26% over the same period of the previous year.  The 1996 first fiscal
quarter increase was primarily due to higher revenue levels from the Company's
WorkStream DFS(TM) product, partially offset by lower revenue levels from the
Company's FlowStream product line.

     During the quarter ended January 31, 1996, the Company received one order
from an existing customer totaling $1,100,000, or 12% of total revenues, for
software licenses and services.  The Company's product license revenue
historically has been concentrated in a relatively small number of customers and
its products have a high average selling price. (See "Potential Fluctuations in
Quarterly Results.")

     Product license revenue attributable to products in the Company's
WorkStream DFS product line increased 57% to $4,539,000 during the three months
ended January 31, 1996 as compared with $2,895,000 in the previous year quarter.
The increase was due to increased demand in the semiconductor industry for the
Company's WorkStream(R) and WorkStream Open(TM) products, especially in Asia, as
well as commercial availability of the Company's new WorkStream DFS application
servers.

     License revenues attributable to FlowStream decreased 73% to $243,000
during the three month period ended January 31, 1996 as compared with $906,000
for the same period in fiscal 1995.  The decrease was primarily attributable to
the variable timing in receipt of orders for the Company's products in any given
quarter.   In addition, several of the Company's customers have begun to
consider corporate implementations of FlowStream.  If customers proceed with
corporate implementations, the Company may in the future receive a smaller
number of orders with a higher total dollar value than in the past.
 
     Services revenues for the three months ended January 31, 1996 increased 7%
to $3,931,000, 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
compared with $3,690,000 for the same period of fiscal 1995. Services revenues
are derived primarily from custom programming services, resident and application
consulting services, customer training, and annual software maintenance fees.
The increase in services revenues for the three months ended January 31, 1996
primarily was due to higher maintenance levels from the Company's WorkStream DFS
product lines. The Company anticipates maintenance revenues associated with its
WorkStream DFS and FlowStream product lines will continue to increase in the
near term due to the higher volume of product licenses sold in recent quarters
which are scheduled to commence maintenance terms. Services revenues normally
are subject to fluctuation primarily due to the timing of new contracts and the
completion of existing projects.

     Development revenues for the three months ended January 31, 1996 increased
248% to $446,000, compared with $128,000 for the same period of fiscal 1995. The
increase in development revenues primarily was due to the Company's starting new
funded development projects, partially offset by the completion of existing
projects. Development revenues include work associated with porting agreements
and development contract work for third parties.  Under these contracts and
agreements, the Company earns development and porting revenues, with
participating third parties having the right to license and use the software,
often sooner than otherwise would have occurred.  The results of these
development contracts and porting projects are expected to become standard
products upon completion of the work.  Development revenues can vary
significantly from period to period, depending upon the number of contracts
which have been entered into and the state of completion of such projects.

     Costs and Expenses.  Cost of product revenue for the three months ended
     -------------------                                                    
January 31, 1996 decreased 10% to $721,000, compared with $798,000 for the same
period of the previous fiscal year.   The decrease in cost of product revenue
primarily was due to a large order for WorkStream that generated minimal costs.
Cost of product revenue includes amortization of capitalized software production
costs, royalties, distributor commissions, and purchased software which is
resold to the end customer, typically along with the Company's proprietary
software.  Depending on the mix of sales of proprietary software, third party
licenses and sales made through distributors in a given period, the associated
costs of product revenue can vary significantly.  Product costs as a percentage
of product revenue for the three months ended January 31, 1996 were 15% compared
with 21% for the same period of the previous year. The decrease in cost of
product revenue as a percentage of product revenue was due to a change in the
mix of product revenues coupled with lower royalties, as well as lower purchased
software costs.

     Cost of services revenue represented 31% of total services revenues for the
three months ended January 31, 1996, compared with 26% in the comparable period
of fiscal 1995. Services costs include expenses for the customer response
center, resident and application consulting services, customer services, and
training groups within the Company.  Cost of services revenue increased 25% to
$1,216,000 for the three month period ended January 31, 1996 compared with
$975,000 for the same period of the previous fiscal year.  The increase in the
percentage and in absolute dollars of cost of services revenues resulted from
the hiring of additional services personnel to enhance the Company's ability to
meet customer requirements for maintenance, support and consulting services.

     Research and Development Expenses.   Research and development expenses
     ---------------------------------                                     
represented 34% of total revenues for the three month period ended January 31,
1996 compared with 29% for the same period of the previous fiscal year.  These
expenses increased to $3,146,000 in the first fiscal quarter compared with
$2,235,000 in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.  The increase in the
percentage and absolute dollar amount of research and development expenses in
the recent three month period compared with the same quarter last year was due
to decreased capitalization of software development costs, costs associated with
preparation for the Company's second quarter building move, a higher level of
funded development activity and a higher level of overall research and
development activity in the recent quarter compared with the levels in the first
quarter in fiscal 

                                       8

1995. Included in research and development expenses are costs associated with
the development of new products, costs of enhancing and maintaining existing
products, as well as costs of porting and funded-development projects.

     Software development expenditures of $286,000 and $357,000 were capitalized
under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 for the three months
ended January 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The amounts represented
approximately 8% and 14% of total research and development expenditures during
such periods. The percentage decrease was due to a decline in the absolute
dollar amount of software costs capitalized during these periods coupled with a
higher level of overall research and development expenditures.  In accordance
with Statement 86, the amount of research and development expenditures
capitalized in a given time period depends upon the amount of development work
performed subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility.

     Selling and Marketing Expenses.   Selling and marketing expenses
     -------------------------------                                 
represented 31% and 35% of total revenues for the three months ended January 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.  Selling and marketing expenses increased to
$2,882,000 for the three months ended January 31, 1996 compared with $2,647,000
for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The first fiscal quarter
increase in absolute dollars in selling and marketing expenses primarily was due
to an increase in the commission expense for the period resulting from the
higher level of sales for the quarter, partially offset by a lower headcount.
The proportional decrease in sales and marketing expense as a percentage of
total revenues was due to increased sales productivity and a higher level of
sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with the same period of the
previous fiscal year.

     General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses
     ------------------------------------                                     
represented 9% and 11% of total revenues for the three months ended January 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.  General and administrative costs include the costs
of the finance, accounting, purchasing and administrative operations of the
Company.  General and administrative expenses increased to $870,000 for the
three months ended January 31, 1996 compared with $820,000 for the same period
of the previous fiscal year.  The first quarter increase in absolute dollars
primarily was due to an increase in headcount over the same period of the
previous fiscal year, as well as additional costs associated with the Company's
building move.

     Interest Income and Expense.  For the three months ended January 31, 1996,
     ----------------------------                                              
interest income was $146,000, compared with interest income of $141,000 for the
same period of the previous fiscal year.  Higher invested cash balances and
slightly higher interest rate levels accounted for the increase.  There was no
interest expense for the period ended January 31, 1996 as compared with $5,000
for the previous year quarter.

     Provision for Income Taxes.  The first fiscal quarter's effective tax rate
     --------------------------                                                
of 53% represents taxes on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries and taxes
withheld on sales made in certain foreign jurisdictions. The comparable rate for
the first quarter of fiscal 1995 was 65%. The Company has established a
valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset and reviews this allowance on
a periodic basis.  At such time that the Company believes that it is more likely
than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized, the
valuation allowance will be reduced.

     Net Income.  The Company generated net income of $222,000, or $.03 per
     -----------                                                           
share, in the quarter ended January 31, 1996, compared with a net income of
$98,000, or $.01 per share, in the same period of the prior year.  The first
fiscal quarter's net income was the result of higher revenues and lower expenses
compared with the same period of the previous year.

     Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results.  The Company's results of
     -------------------------------------------                           
operations historically have fluctuated on a quarterly basis due to several
factors.  These factors include: the relatively high average selling price of
the Company's products relative to the number of transactions; market 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
acceptance of new products; introduction of competitive product offerings and
subsequent deferrals in sales orders as competitive products are evaluated by
prospective customers; the size and timing of new orders; the timing of co-
development projects with customers; expense levels; pricing changes; gain or
loss of significant customers or distributors; the level of capital spending and
the general economic conditions in the Company's primary markets, and increased
competition. Any unfavorable change in these or other factors could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's operating results for a particular
quarter. The operating results in any quarter are not necessarily indicative of
results for future financial periods.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources.  As of January 31, 1996, the Company had
     --------------------------------                                         
$10,519,000 in cash and cash equivalents and short term investments, as compared
with $12,164,000 at October 31, 1995.  The Company used $1,051,000 in operating
activities during the three months ended January 31, 1996.  This was principally
due to an increase of $1,318,000 in accounts receivable and a decrease in other
liabilities and accrued expenses of $931,000, offset by net income of $222,000
and non-cash depreciation and amortization of $711,000.

     Cash provided by investing activities was $785,000 during the first quarter
of 1996 which represented sales of short term investments of $1,478,000, offset
by capital expenditures and capitalized software production costs.

     Management believes the existing cash and cash equivalents will be
sufficient to meet the Company's working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for at least the next twelve months.
