2.      New accounting standards

        In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business
        Combinations" ("FAS 141") and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
        Assets" ("FAS 142"). FAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations
        be accounted for under the purchase method only and that certain
        acquired intangible assets in a business combination be recognized as
        assets apart from goodwill. FAS No. 142 requires that ratable
        amortization of goodwill be replaced with periodic tests of the
        goodwill's impairment and that intangible assets other than goodwill be
        amortized over their useful lives. FAS No. 141 is effective for all
        business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for all business
        combinations accounted for by the purchase method for which the date of
        acquisition is before June 30, 2001. The provisions of FAS No. 142 will
        be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The
        Company is currently reviewing the provisions of these statements.

        In September 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued EITF
        00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs" which
        states that all amounts billed to a customer in a sale transaction
        related to shipping and handling represents revenues earned and as such,
        should be classified as revenue. The Company has adopted EITF 00-10 as
        of July 2001. All comparative financial statements reflect the change in
        classification within the income statement.

        In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
        Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
        Long-Lived Assets" ("FAS 144"). FAS 144 supercedes FASB Statement No.
        121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
        Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." FAS 144 applies to all long-lived
        assets (including discontinued operations) and consequently amends
        Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting Results of
        Operations- Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a
        Business." FAS 144 is effective for financial statements issued for
        fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management is currently
        determining what effect, if any, FAS 144 will have on its financial
        position and results of operations.

3.      Legal proceedings

        MICROS is and has been involved in legal proceedings arising in the
        normal course of business. The Company is of the opinion, based upon
        presently available information and the advice of counsel concerning
        pertinent legal matters, that any resulting liability should not have a
        material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or
        financial position.

4.      Net income (loss) per share

        Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by
        the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted net income
        per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options.

        Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed using the
        weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period and does
        not include unexercised stock options since their effect would be
        anti-dilutive due to the losses in the three-month period ended
        September 30, 2000.

        For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, 1,839
        options and 2,245 options, respectively, were excluded from the above
        reconciliation as these options were anti-dilutive for these periods.

5.      Segment reporting data

        The Company develops, manufactures, sells and services point-of-sale
        computer systems, property management systems, central reservation and
        central information systems products for the hospitality industry.
        MICROS is organized and operates in two segments: U.S. and
        International. The International segment is primarily in Europe, the
        Pacific Rim and Latin America. For purposes of applying SFAS No. 131,
        "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
        management views the U.S. and International segments separately in
        operating the business, although the products and services are similar
        for each segment. The following information is presented in accordance
        with the requirements of SFAS No. 131.

        A summary of the Company's operating segments is as follows:

Results of Operations

Results of Operations - First Quarter Comparison

    The Company recorded a diluted net income of $0.05 per common share in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002, compared with a net loss of $0.05 per common share
in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The increase was mainly due to an increase
in sales volume.

    Revenue increased by $9.2 million or 12.3% to $83.5 million for the first
quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the same period last year.  A comparison of
the sales mix for fiscal years 2002 and 2001 is as follows:

    Combined hardware and software revenues for the first quarter of fiscal
2002 increased $3.1 million, or 7.9%, and service revenues increased $6.1
million, or 17.4%, over the same period a year earlier.

    Combined hardware and software sales increased, in absolute dollars, in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002 in comparison to the prior year primarily due to
the acquisitions of Indatec GMbH & CO KG in January 2001 and the assets of the
hospitality division of Hospitality Solutions International ("HSI") in October
2000. Service revenues increased primarily due to support revenues earned on a
larger customer base.

    Cost of sales, as a percentage of revenue, remained relatively constant
at 52.0% and 51.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Cost of sales for hardware and software products, as a percentage of related
revenue, increased to 56.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to
51.3% for the same quarter a year earlier. This increase, as a percentage of
revenue, is primarily due to the increase of third party software sales, which
generate lower margins.

    Service costs, as a percentage of service revenue, decreased to 47.0% in
the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 52.3% in the same quarter in fiscal
2001. The decrease was primarily due to the continued expansion of the Company's
customer base and the ability of the Company to increase service revenues at a
rate in excess of service costs.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.2 million, or
4.2%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the same period last year.
As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased to 34.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 40.3% in the
first quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease is primarily due to the Company's
continued efforts to reduce expenses, partially offset by operating expenses of
recent acquisitions.

    Research and development expenses (exclusive of capitalized software
development costs), which consist primarily of labor costs, increased $0.7
million, or 16.8%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the same
period a year earlier. The increase is primarily due to the release of Opera
software in June 2001. Upon general release of a product, all new expenditures
are charged to operations as incurred and previously capitalized amounts are
amortized. Actual research and development expenditures, including capitalized
software development costs of $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002
and $2.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001, decreased $0.8 million, or
12.75%, compared to the same period a year earlier. The decrease is mainly due
to the reduction of outside consulting costs.

    Income from operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was $2.8
million, or 3.4% of revenue, compared to a loss of $1.5 million, or 2.0% of
revenue, in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The increase is primarily due to
higher sales volume and the Company's continued efforts to reduce operating
expenses.

    Other expense increased from $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2001 to $1.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The Company
experienced foreign currency translation loss of $1.0 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2002 compared

                                       9

<PAGE>


to a loss of $0.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The translation
loss is primarily due to fluctuations in exchange rates with the Euro, South
African Rand and Australian Dollar.

    The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001
was 40.0% and 40.5%, respectively.

    The European Union ("EU") filed a challenge against the U.S. Foreign Sales
corporation ("FSC") tax provisions with the World Trade Organization ("WTO"). On
July 23, 2001, the WTO issued a final decision upholding this challenge.
Officials representing the United States on trade issues continue to seek
resolution through a negotiated settlement. It is currently not possible to
predict what impact, if any, this issue will have on future earnings pending
final resolution of the matter with the WTO, EU, and the United States.

Euro Conversion

    On January 1, 1999, certain member nations of the European Economic and
Monetary Union ("EMU") adopted a common currency, the Euro. For a three-year
transition period, both the Euro and individual participants' currencies will
remain in circulation. After June 30, 2002, the Euro will be the sole legal
tender for EMU countries. The adoption of the Euro will affect a multitude of
financial systems and business applications as the commerce of these nations
will be transacted in the Euro and the existing national currency during the
transition period. As of September 30, 2001, of the twelve countries currently
admitted to the EMU, the Company has subsidiary operations in six of those
countries and distributor relationships in the remaining six countries.

    MICROS is currently addressing Euro related issues and its impact on
information systems, currency exchange rate risk, taxation, contracts,
competition, and pricing. Action plans currently being implemented are expected
to result in compliance with all laws and regulations; however, there can be no
certainty that such plans will be successfully implemented or that external
factors will not have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. Moreover,
there is still some uncertainty with respect to the interpretation of certain
Euro regulations, and the impact of the regulations on the Company's Euro
implementation. Any costs associated with the adoption of the Euro will be
expensed as incurred. The Company currently does not expect these costs to be
material to its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The Company currently has a $45.0 million multi-currency committed line of
credit expiring on December 31, 2001. The financing agreement was amended on
April 30, 2001 to include a security interest in inventory and receivables
located in the United States. Prior to this upcoming expiration date, the
Company anticipates that it will renew this line of credit for an additional
one-year period. The Company has the one-time option to convert the line of
credit into a three-year secured term loan upon expiration of the line of
credit. As of September 30, 2001, there is a balance outstanding of US $9.0
million, SEK 3.5 million (approximately $0.3 million at the September 30, 2001
exchange rate), ZAR 10.6 million (approximately $1.2 million at the September
30, 2001 exchange rate) and JPY 140.0 million (approximately $1.2 million at the
September 30, 2001 exchange rate) under this line of credit.

   The Company also has a credit relationship from a European bank in the
amount of DM 15.0 million (approximately $7.0 million at the September 30, 2001
exchange rate). Under the terms of this facility, the Company may borrow in the
form of either a line of credit or term debt. Under the credit facility, the
Company previously had a balance of DM 5.0 million (approximately $2.2 million
at the June 30, 2001 exchange rate), which was discharged in full in September
2001.

   Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2002 was $3.9
million. The Company used $5.7 million for investing activities in fiscal 2002,
including $2.4 million for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment and
internally developed software and $3.4 million for earn-out payments. Net
financing activities for fiscal 2002 provided $5.1 million, primarily from the
proceeds from the line of credit of $10.2 million offset by $5.4 million in
repayments on the line of credit, long-term debt and capital lease obligations.
The cash position of the Company at September 30, 2001 was $29.7 million. All
cash is being held for the operation and expansion of the business.

   The Company anticipates that its cash flow from operations along with
available lines of credit, in conjunction with other lines of credit for which
the Company may be eligible or lines of credit to be renewed or converted into
term debt, are sufficient to provide the working capital needs of the Company
for the foreseeable future. The Company anticipates that its rate of property,
plant and equipment expenditures for fiscal 2002 will be approximately the same
as fiscal 2001.

Summary

    Until the first quarter of calendar year 2000, the Company had
experienced rapid revenue growth at a rate that it believes had exceeded that of
the global market for point-of-sale computer systems and property management
information systems products for the hospitality industry. In light of weaker
market conditions, the Company's growth rate declined. Currently, given the weak
worldwide economic conditions, and the general financial uncertainty triggered
in part by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, there can be no
assurance that any particular level of growth can be achieved. In addition, due
to the competitive nature of the market, the Company continues to experience
gross margin pressure on its products and service offerings. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to continue to increase sufficiently
sales of its higher margin products, including software, to prevent future
declines in the Company's overall gross margin.

    Moreover, MICROS's financial results in any single quarter are dependent
upon the timing and size of customer orders and the shipment of products for
large orders. Large software orders from customers may account for more than an
insignificant portion of earnings in any quarter. The customers with whom MICROS
does the largest amount of business are expected to vary from year to year as a
result of the timing for the roll-out of each customer's system. Furthermore, if
a customer delays or accelerates its delivery requirements or a product's
completion is delayed or accelerated, revenues expected in a given quarter may
be deferred or accelerated into subsequent or earlier quarters.

    The market price of MICROS Common Stock is volatile, and may be subject to
significant fluctuations in response to variations in MICROS's quarterly
operating results and other factors such as announcements of technological
developments or new products by MICROS, customer roll-outs, technological
advances by existing and new competitors, and general market conditions in the
hospitality industry. In addition, conditions in the stock market in general and
shares of technology companies in particular have experienced significant price
and volume fluctuations which have at times been unrelated to the operating
performance of companies.

    Moreover, some of the statements contained herein not based on historic
facts are forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, that involve risks and uncertainties. Past performance
is not necessarily a strong or reliable indicator of future performance. Actual
results could differ materially from past results, estimates or projections.
Some of the additional risks and uncertainties are: political and world
instability created by additional terrorist attacks, which gravely impacts the
travel and tourism industries; product demand and market acceptance, including
demand and acceptance for the new OPERA products and the newest versions of the
3700 RES; implementation of a cost-effective service structure capable of
servicing increasingly complex software systems in increasingly more remote
locations; achieving increased sales of higher margin software products; hiring
and retention of qualified employees with sufficient technical expertise;
unexpected currency fluctuations; impact of competitive products and pricing on
margins; product development delays; technological difficulties associated with
new product releases; and controlling expenses. These and other risks are
disclosed in the Company's releases and SEC filings, including in the section
titled "Business and Investment Risks; Information Relating to Forward-Looking
Statements", in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year
ended June 30, 2001.

                    For the Quarter Ended September 30, 2001

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

    Until calendar year 2000, the Company had experienced growth
internationally. MICROS's significant international business and presence does
expose the Company to certain market risks, such as currency, interest rate and
political risks. With respect to currency risk, the Company transacts business
in 28 different currencies through its foreign subsidiaries. The fluctuation of
currencies impacts sales and profitability. Frequently, sales and the costs
associated with such sales are not always denominated in the same currency.
Given the fact that the Company transacts business in many different currencies,
adverse declines in certain currencies can be offset by favorable advances in
other currencies. Recent weakness in certain European currencies has, however,
adversely impacted the financial performance of the Company.

    Additionally, the Company is subject to interest rate fluctuations in
foreign countries to the extent that the Company elects to borrow in the local
foreign currency. In the past, this has not been an issue of concern as the
Company has the capacity to elect to borrow in other currencies with more
favorable interest rates. While the Company has not to date invested in
financial instruments designed to protect against interest rate fluctuations,
the Company will continue to evaluate the need to do so in the future.

    Further, the Company is subject to political risk, as most recently
demonstrated by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Political and
economic instability and uncertainty caused by terrorism, and the resultant
conflicts designed to thwart terrorism, adversely impact the travel, tourism and
hospitality industries which the Company serves. The Company is also subject to
the effects of, and changes in, laws and regulations, other activities of
governments, agencies and similar organizations.

    Finally, the Company's committed line of credit bears interest at a
floating rate of interest. It does not invest in financial instruments designed
to protect against interest rate fluctuations, although it will continue to
evaluate the need to do so in the future.
