                    SENTO TECHNICAL INNOVATIONS CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                September 30, 1996
                                   (Unaudited)

A.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The balance sheet as of September 30, 1996, the statements of operations
     for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1996 and September
     30, 1995, and the statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended
     September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995 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.  

     Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 1996 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
     Company's fiscal year ending March 31, 1997.  The unaudited condensed
     consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
     consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended April 30, 1996.

     Management has determined that commencing in fiscal year 1997, a new fiscal
     year end of March 31 will be adopted to coincide with the calendar quarter
     end.  On June 18, 1996, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to
     report this change.  The Company has reported the transition to March 31
     fiscal year end by filing a Transition Report on Form 10-QSB for the
     transition period from May 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996.

B.   FIXED ASSETS

     Fixed assets are stated at cost.  Depreciation of fixed assets is computed
     on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of individual
     classes of assets.  The estimated useful lives of the individual classes of
     assets are as follows:

                    Buildings                            40 years
                    Furniture and equipment              3-10 years
                    Transportation equipment             5 years

C.   OTHER ASSETS

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

GENERAL

Sento Technical Innovations Corporation ("Sento" or the "Company") develops,
configures, markets, and distributes industry-leading hardware and software
computing solutions, combined with consulting, training, and support services to
business, government, and educational organizations world-wide through direct
sales and marketing, channel distribution, and industry partners.  

The Company, through its four wholly-owned subsidiaries, Spire Technologies,
Inc. ("Spire Technologies"), Spire Systems Incorporated ("Spire Systems"),
DewPoint Distributed Solutions Incorporated ("DewPoint") and Centerpost
Innovations Pty. Ltd., develops and implements system management and office
automation solutions for open and proprietary computing environments, acts as a
"service and value-added reseller" and distributor of software developed by
third parties, resells Digital Equipment Corporation ("Digital") network
computer systems and components on value-added basis and manages value-added
reseller and distribution channels in the Americas, Europe, and Southeast Asia. 
The Company offers a wide range of desktop, workstation, client/server and
centralized computing software, systems and peripheral equipment, as well as
channel management and support services for both domestic and international
clientele in a wide variety of industries and computing environments, including
UNIX, Windows NT and Digital Open VMS.

In September 1996, the Company obtained an option to acquire the assets
(including all intellectual property) of Australian Software Innovations
(Services) Pty. Ltd. ("ASI"), a developer of UNIX-based management and
performance monitoring software and provider of software education and
consulting services based in Sydney, Australia.  ASI develops and markets
performance monitoring software and provides related technical consulting
services to customers located in Asia, Europe, the United Kingdom and the United
States.  


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED 
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995.

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $5,215,238,
compared to $3,033,846 for the three months ended September 30, 1995, an
increase of 72%.  The increase in net sales resulted from increases in both
software product sales and computer hardware sales.  New versions of existing
software, expansion of product lines, and the release of software for new
operating platforms being sold by an expanded sales staff contributed to the
increase in order rates for the Company's software offerings.  Increasing
acceptance of Digital's Alpha hardware system contributed substantially to the
increase in hardware sales, which represented 58% of the Company's total
revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996.

Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was 33% of net sales
compared to 45% of net sales for the comparable period in 1995.  The decrease in
gross margin resulted principally from two factors: (1) The Company's hardware
sales increased, as a percentage of net sales, faster than the Company's
software sales which carry a higher gross margin. (2) Several of the new
software products added to the Company's existing 


                                      5

software line require higher royalties be paid to the respective 
manufacturers than the Company's historical line of software products.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1996
were $130,494, compared to $139,026 for the three months ended September 30,
1995, an increase of 7%.  This increase resulted principally from the Company's
expansion into new software product lines and development costs relating to new
products to be introduced in the future.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 were $1,597,232, compared to $1,164,013 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995, an increase of 37%.  The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses resulted principally from the Company's formation of
DewPoint, a wholly owned subsidiary responsible for expanding world-wide
distribution of the Company's current product line, the expansion of the
Company's direct sales force, and increased marketing efforts.  Selling, general
and administrative expenses also increased as a result of the Company's expanded
operations, legal and accounting expenses relating to the Company's new public
reporting responsibilities, and acquisition activities.

Other income consists primarily of interest received from investments of excess
cash provided by the issuance of shares of Common Stock in a private equity
transaction completed in June 1996. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources."


SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1995

Net sales for the six months ended September 30, 1996 were $9,733,677, compared
to $6,336,704 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, an increase of 54%. 
The increase in net sales resulted from increases in both software product sales
and computer hardware sales.  New versions of existing software, expansion of
product lines, and the release of software for new operating platforms being
sold by an expanded sales staff  contributed to the increase in order rates for
the Company's software offerings.  The wide acceptance of Digital's Alpha
hardware system contributed substantially to the increase in hardware revenues
which represented 52% of the Company's total revenues.

Gross margin for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was 34% of net sales,
compared to 43% of net sales for the comparable period in 1995.  The decrease in
gross margin resulted principally from two factors: The Company's hardware sales
increased as a percentage of net sales faster than the Company's software sales
which carry a higher gross margin, and several of the new software products
added to the Company's existing software line require higher royalties to be
paid the respective manufactures than the Company's historical line of software
products.

Research and Development expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1996
were $273,993, compared to $139,026 for the six months ended September 30, 1995,
an increase of 97%.  The Company recently licensed several software products,
and is, therefore, responsible for the continued development and support of
these products.  This increase in expense resulted principally from the
Company's expansion into new software product lines and development costs
relating to products which will  be introduced in the future.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended 
September 30, 1996 were $2,958,547,


                                      6


<PAGE>

compared to $2,298,776 for the six months ended September 30, 1995, an 
increase of 29%.  The increase in selling, general and administrative 
expenses resulted principally from the Company's formation of DewPoint, the 
expansion of the Company's direct sales force, and increased marketing 
efforts.  Selling, general and administrative expenses also increased as a 
result of the Company's expanded operations, legal and accounting expenses 
relating to the Company's new public reporting responsibilities, and 
acquisition activities.

Other income consists primarily of interest received from investments of excess
cash provided by the issuance of Common Stock in a private equity transaction
completed in June 1996.  (See Liquidity and Capital Resources.)


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has financed its operations and capital requirements primarily
through cash flow generated from operations, equipment lease financing
facilities, and sales of equity securities.  Long term borrowings have been kept
to a minimum and used primarily for the purchase of a building to house a
portion of the Company's operations.  In June 1996, the Company obtained
additional cash through a private placement of Common Stock and warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock which is reflected in the unaudited financial
statements of the Company set forth in Part I, Item I of this report.  

Effective June 1, 1996, the Company established two lines of credit with a
commercial bank, one for $1,000,000, secured by trade receivables, which bears
interest at prime plus two percent, expiring June 1, 1997; the other for
$350,000, secured by equipment, which bears interest at prime plus two percent,
expiring May 1, 1999.  As of September 30, 1996, the Company had no borrowings
against either line of credit.

At September 30, 1996, the Company's cash balance was $2,952,773, compared to
$1,552,806 as of April 30, 1996.  Working capital increased from $943,332 at
April 30, 1996 to $2,043,396 at September 30, 1996.  The Company's current ratio
increased from 1.33 at April 1996 to 1.43 at September 30, 1996.  This increase
was due primarily to cash generated from operations and the proceeds of a
private placement of units consisting of shares of Common Stock and warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock, completed by the Company in June, 1996.  

The Company increased its investment in equipment during the six months ended 
September 30, 1996 by $168,753 in order to expand its capacity.  The Company 
also increased its investment in licensed technology by $550,000 during the 
six-month period.

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 that have products or distribution channels that are compatible
with the business objectives of the Company.  The Company has obtained an
option, which is exercisable until September 10, 1997, to acquire certain assets
of ASI.  If the Company exercises the ASI option or identifies and proceeds with
any other acquisition or alliance opportunity, additional capital, in the form
of debt or equity financing, may be required.
