Statements of Operations for the three and six month periods ended September
30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, and the Statements of Cash Flows for the six
month periods ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 have been
prepared by the Company without audit.  Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included.  The Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of March 31, 1997 was derived from the Company's audited Consolidated
Financial Statements of such date.

Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the Company's
fiscal year ending March 31, 1998.  The unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements of the Company and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31,
1997.


B.   AUSTRALIAN SOFTWARE INNOVATIONS ACQUISITION
     -------------------------------------------

Effective July 1, 1996, the Company entered into an Exclusive License and
Technical Assistance Agreement ("license agreement") with Australian Software
Innovations Ltd. ("ASI").  Under the terms of the license agreement, the
Company acquired an exclusive license to use, sell, and sublicense ASI's
products in North and South America during a five-year term.  The Company paid
ASI $550,000 upon the execution of the license agreement and agreed to pay
royalties during the term of the license agreement.  The license fee was
carried as Other Assets and was being amortized over a five-year period until
the rights were sold to BMC (see Note C).  

On September 10, 1996, the Company entered into an ASI Option Agreement ("ASI
Option").  Under the terms of the ASI Option, ASI granted to the Company an
option, for one year, to acquire all or any portion of the tangible and
intangible assets of ASI.  As consideration for the grant of the ASI Option,
the Company paid to ASI $130,000.  

On July 9, 1997, the Company exercised its option under the ASI Option
Agreement.  The Company paid a total of $1,487,111 which included the $130,000
paid for the grant of the Option.  As part of the exercise of its option, the
Company acquired certain tangible assets of ASI, ASI's goodwill, and all of
ASI's intellectual properties, assumed certain liabilities and obtained from
the principals of ASI a Deed of Restraint of Trade.  The Company sold the
intellectual properties and certain other rights to BMC Software, Inc. on July
10, 1997 (See Note C).


C.   TECHNOLOGY SALE
      --------------- 

On July 10, 1997, the Company, certain shareholders of the Company, ASI, and
Eng Lee entered into an Asset Purchase and Services Agreement with BMC
Software, Inc. ("BMC") pursuant to which the Company sold the intellectual
properties, and certain other rights it had acquired from ASI for a total of $7
million (See Note B).  The BMC purchase price included payment of $4,550,000
for the intellectual property and goodwill of ASI acquired by the Company, as
well as for certain restrictive covenants of the Company and ASI, and
$2,450,000 for the exclusive license for North and South America.  Of the $7
million purchase price, BMC withheld $1,400,000 which was place in escrow as
security for certain representations and warranties made by the Company.  One-
half of this amount, or $700,000 will be released at the end of twelve months
and one-half will be released at the end of twenty-four months.These amounts 
have been recorded as long and short term deferred revenues, short term notes 
receivable, and other assets.  These amounts will be recognized as related 
services to be performed by the Company are completed. The gain on the sale
of these assets is reflected as other income on the Company's Condensed 
Consolidated Statement of Operations.


D.   OTHER ASSETS
      ------------

Other Assets are comprised as follows:

     Note Receivable from BMC            700,000
     Organization Expense (net)              685
     Deposits                             74,878
                                         -------
                                        $775,563
                                         =======                                
   
E.   CONVERTIBLE BOND
      ----------------

In July 1997 the Company sold to Canadian Imperial Holdings, Inc. ("Canadian
Imperial") $1,000,000 of 6% Series A Convertible Bonds.  The bonds are
convertible into shares of Sento Common Stock beginning October 6, 1997, at a
conversion price equal to the lesser of 85% of the average closing bid price of
the Sento Common Stock for the five trading days preceding Canadian Imperial's
notice of conversion, or $5.22.  In the event the bonds have not been converted
previously, the aggregate principal amount of the bonds, together with accrued
interest, will be converted into shares of Sento Common Stock on July 7, 1999. 
The bonds are redeemable by the Company, in its discretion, at any time after
September 5, 1997 at a price equal to 115% of the unpaid principal amounts of
the bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest.  The warrants are exercisable
until May 31, 1999.  The Company has also granted to Canadian Imperial certain
rights to register the shares of Sento Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of the bonds.

F.   COMMON STOCK
     ------------

In August 1997 the Company completed a private offering in which it sold
unregistered shares of its common stock to certain accredited investors.  The
shares were offered in units, at $12.50 per unit, with each unit consisting of
three shares of common stock plus one warrant to buy one share of common stock
for $5.50 before May 31, 1999.  A total of 240,000 units were sold for which
$2,904,000 of net cash proceeds were received.  

G.   EARNINGS PER SHARE
     ------------------

Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common
shares and, as appropriate, dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding
during the period.  Stock options and warrants are considered to be common
stock equivalents.  Fully diluted earnings per share for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 were not materially different from primary earnings
per share.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share (SFAS 128).  SFAS
128 establishes a different method of computing earnings per share than is
currently required under the provision of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 15. Under SFAS 128, the Company will be required to present both basic
earnings per share and diluted earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share is
expected to be higher than the currently presented primary earnings per share
as the effect of dilutive stock options will not be considered in computing
basic earnings per share.  Diluted earnings per share is expected to be
comparable or slightly lower than the currently presented primary earnings per
share.

SFAS 128 is effective for both interim and annual periods ending after December
15, 1997.  Accordingly, the Company plans to adopt SFAS 128 in its fiscal third
quarter and at that time all historical earnings per share data presented will
be restated to conform to the provisions of SFAS 128.

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

General
-------

Sento Technical Innovations Corporation ("Sento") is the parent of Spire
Technologies, Inc. ("STI"), Spire Systems Incorporated ("SSI"), DewPoint
Distributed Solutions Incorporated ("DewPoint"), Centerpost Innovations Pty.
Ltd ("Centerpost"), and Australian Software Innovations Limited ("ASI")
(collectively, the Company).  STI, SSI, and DewPoint are resellers of computer
software and hardware, and also provide technical support for certain software. 
The Company's customers consist of business and governmental entities,
geographically dispersed throughout the United States and abroad.  Revenues
from foreign sales for the periods ended September 30, 1997 were approximately
eight percent of total sales, most of which were from Europe.  As a reseller,
the Company is dependent on third-party suppliers, with over seventy percent of
the Company's revenues derived from products it obtains from three suppliers.

Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to 
Three Months Ended September 30, 1996
--------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $4,682,373,
compared to $5,215,238 for the three months ended September 30, 1996, a
decrease of 10%  The decrease in net sales resulted from decreases in both
software product sales and computer hardware sales.  Hardware sales were
$1,653,994 for the three months ended September 30, 1997, a 10% decrease from
sales of $1,836,644 for the three months ended September 30, 1996.  Software
sales for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $3,131,129, which was
a decrease of 12 from sales of $3,546,322 for the three months ended September
30, 1997.  

The Company's sale to BMC in July 1997 of the Open Aviator product, which
represented over 20% of the Company's software revenues at the time of the
sale, was a material factor in the decrease in revenues.  This shortfall in
revenues is expected to continue until the Company is able to add products to
fill the void created by the sale.

Gross margin remained virtually unchanged for the three months ended September
30, 1997 which was 32% of net sales compared to 33% of net sales for the
comparable period in 1996.  

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1997
were $78, compared to $130,494 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. 
This decrease represents the completion of software development on products
which have been released for general sale into the market.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 were $2,111,133 compared to $1,597,232 for the three months
ended September 30, 1996.  This 32% increase is due to increased legal and
accounting expenses associated with projects relating to financing activities,
costs associated with the sale of the Open Aviator technology to BMC, and
acquisition activities during the quarter.  The Company continued to incur
selling and personnel expenses associated with the Open Aviator product line
while the department was being redeployed following the sale to BMC in July
1997.


Six Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to 
Six Months Ended September 30, 1996
------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the six months ended September 30, 1997 were $8,666,880, compared
to $9,733,677 for the six months ended September 30, 1996, a decrease of 11%. 
The decrease in net sales resulted from decreases in only software product
sales.  Hardware sales for the six months ended September 30, 1997 increased
13% from hardware sales during the first six months of 1996.  Software sales
for the six months ended September 30, 1997 declined by 11% from the first six
months of 1996.             

Gross margin for the six months ended September 30, 1997 was 33% of sales,
compared to 34% of sales for the comparable period in 1996.  

Research and development expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1997
were $78,828, compared to $273,993 for the six months ended September 30, 1996,
a decrease of 71%.  New versions of existing software were completed and
released during the period, eliminating new programming and its associated 
costs.
  
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September
30, 1997 were $3,786,795 compared to $2,958,547 for the six months ended
September 30, 1996, an increase of 28%.  This increase is due to increased
legal and accounting expenses associated with projects relating to financing
activities, costs associated with the sale of the Open Aviator technology to
BMC, and acquisition activities during the period.  The Company continued to
incur selling and personnel expenses associated with the Open Aviator product
line while the department was being redeployed following the sale to BMC in
July.  


Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The Company has financed its operations and capital requirements primarily
through cash flow generated from operations, sales of equity securities, and
the sale of a convertible bond.    

The Company has a $350,000 line of credit at prime plus two percent, secured by
equipment, expiring May 1, 1999.  The total amount outstanding at September 30,
1997 was $181,648.
  
At September 30, 1997 the cash balance was $9,297,764, compared to $2,225,338
as of March 31, 1997.  Working capital increased from $2,139,580 at March 31, 
1997 to $7,239,543 at September 30, 1997.  The Company's current ratio 
increased from 1.57 at March 1997 to 2.06.  This increase was due primarily 
to the cash received from the proceeds of the private placement, the sale of 
the convertible bond, and the sale to BMC of certain assets described above.

Based on anticipated working capital requirements, the Company believes that
existing cash, cash generated from operations, and debt financing and
borrowings under the Company's existing lines of credit will be sufficient to
finance the operations of the Company in the near term.  The Company continues 
to evaluate opportunities for the license or acquisition of additional 
software products as well as the possible acquisition of, or development of 
strategic alliances with, other companies which may have products or 
distribution channels that are compatible with the business objectives of 
the Company.  

Factors Affecting Future Results
--------------------------------

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Statements in
this report regarding the expansion of the Company's operations and any future
acquisition activities are forward-looking statements.  Words such as
"expects", "intends", "believes", "anticipates", and "likely" also identify
forward-looking statements.  Actual results could differ materially from 
those anticipated for a number of reasons, including, among others, increased 
competition, a downturn in the market for hardware and software products, 
increases in interest rates, and other unanticipated factors.  Risk factors,
cautionary statements, and other conditions that could cause actual results 
to differ are contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as 
amended.

PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION
---------------------------

ITEM 2.   CHANGES IN SECURITIES
          a.   As described in Item 4 below, on August 18, 1997, at the Annual
               Meeting of Shareholders, a resolution was approved to amend the
               Company's Articles of Incorporation to authorize a class of
               5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and to increase the number
               of shares of Common Stock which the Company is authorized to
               issue from 8,000,000 to 15,000,000. 

         c.    Convertible Bond.
                  ----------------    

               Effective July 8, 1997, the Company entered into a Convertible
               Bond and Warrant Purchase Agreement with Canadian Imperial
               Holdings Inc. ("Canadian Imperial"), pursuant to which the
               Company sold to Canadian Imperial a 6% Series A Convertible Bond
               in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 (the
               "Convertible Bond").  The Convertible Bond is convertible for
               share of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") at a
               conversion price equal to the lesser of (a) 85% of the average
               closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five trading days
               preceding Canadian Imperial's notice of conversion or (b) $5.22
               per share.  The conversion of the Convertible Bond may occur at
               any time after October 6, 1997, upon the request of Canadian
               Imperial, but not later than July 8, 1999.  In connection with
               the sale of the Convertible Bond, the Company issued to Canadian
               Imperial a warrant to purchase up to 30,000 shares of Common
               Stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share.  The warrants are
               exercisable by Canadian Imperial until May 31, 1999. 

               The Convertible Bond was sold directly to Canadian Imperial, in
               exchange for a cash payment of $1,000,000, without the
               participation of any underwriter.  The sale of the Convertible
               Bond and the associated warrant was effected in reliance upon
               the exemption for sales of securities not involving any public
               offering, as set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Ace of
               1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), based upon
               representations and warranties provided by Canadian Imperial to
               the Company.

               Private Placement of Common Stock and Warrants.  
               ----------------------------------------------

               On August 27, 1997, the Company completed a private placement of
               240,000 units (the "Units"), each comprised of three shares of
               Common Stock and a warrant to purchase one share of Common
               Stock, exercisable until May 31, 1999 at an exercise price of
               $5.50 per share (the "Private Placement").  The Units were
               offered on a "best efforts" basis on behalf of the Company by
               the Company's officers (without additional compensation
               therefor) and certain independent brokers at an offering price
               of $12.50 per Unit.  The Private Placement was conducted
               pursuant to the terms set forth in a Private Placement
               Memorandum of the Company dated May 30, 1997.  The total
               proceeds of the Private Placement, before payment of offering
               expenses and broker compensation, was $3,000,000.

               The principal brokers participating in the Private Placement
               were C.F. Walker, Neidiger/Tucker/Bruner, Inc., David M.
               Berkowitz, and Daniel Kern.  In exchange for services rendered
               by such broker in connection with the Private Placement, the
               Company paid to each participating broker compensation equal to
               8% of the aggregate fund paid for Units purchased through such
               broker, together with a warrant to purchase one share of Common
               Stock for every three Units sold by the broker, at an exercise
               price of $5.50 per share.  The total compensation paid by the
               Company to participating brokers was warrants to purchase 80,000
               shares of Common Stock.

               The sale of the Units was effected in reliance upon exemptions
               for sales of securities not involving any public offering, as
               set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as well as
               reliance upon the exemption set forth in Rule 506 of Regulation
               D promulgated under the Securities Act.  The Company's reliance
               upon such exemptions was based upon representations and
               warranties of the purchasers contained in subscription documents
               submitted to the Company by each purchaser, as well as the
               Company's review of purchaser questionnaires submitted by each
               purchaser.

               Acquistion of CDG Technologies, Inc.
               -----------------------------------

               Effective July 1, 1997, the Company entered into an Acquisition
               Agreement with CDG Technologies, Inc., a provider of software
               distribution and support services based in Framingham,
               Massachusetts ("CDG"), and the three shareholders of CDG (the
               "Acquisition Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company acquired
               all of the capital stock of CDG in exchange for the Company's
               issuance of 60,000 shares of Common Stock to the three former
               shareholders of CDG.  Upon the consummation of the transaction
               with CDG, CDG became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

               The Company's issuance of the shares of Common Stock as
               contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement was effected in
               reliance upon the exemption for sales of securities not
               involving any public offering, as set forth in Section 4(2) of
               the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
               based upon representations and warranties provided by CDG and
               the former CDG shareholders in the Acquisition Agreement.
