ITEM 1.  BUSINESS
 
     Medical Manager Corporation (the "Company") is a leading provider of
comprehensive physician practice management information systems to independent
physicians, independent practice associations ("IPAs"), management service
organizations ("MSOs"), physician practice management organizations ("PPMs"),
management care organizations and other providers of health care services in the
United States. The Company, which was founded in 1996, develops, markets and
supports The Medical Manager(R) practice management system, which addresses the
financial, administrative, clinical and practice management needs of physician
practices. The Company's system has been implemented in a wide variety of
practice settings from small physician groups to multi-provider IPAs and MSOs.
The Company's proprietary systems enable physicians and their administrative
staffs to efficiently manage their practices while delivering quality patient
care in a constantly changing health care environment. Since the development of
The Medical Manager software in 1982, the Company's installed base has grown to
over 24,000 client sites, representing more than 80 practice specialities,
making it the most widely installed physician practice management system in the
United States.
 
     As part of the Company's initial public offering in February 1997 (the
"IPO"), the Company acquired in separate transactions (the "Mergers") five
businesses (each a "Founding Company" and collectively the "Founding Companies")
which were involved in one or more aspects of the development, sale and support
of The Medical Manager practice management system. Since the IPO, the Company
has implemented its strategy of acquiring selected independent dealers. As part
of this acquisition program, the Company has acquired an additional 42
independent dealers throughout the United States, each of which was involved in
the development, sale and support of The Medical Manager practice management
system. Of the 42 independent dealers acquired, 23 were accounted for using the
pooling of interests method of accounting and are collectively referred to as
the "Acquired Companies." The remaining 19 independent dealers acquired were
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and are collectively
referred to as the "Purchased Companies."
 
     The Company conducts its operations through eight wholly-owned
subsidiaries, each of which is involved in one or more of the research and
development, national sales and marketing, and direct sales, marketing and
support activities of the Company.

INDUSTRY
 
     In recent years, the healthcare information technology marketplace has
emerged as one of the fastest growing industries in the United States. The
business of healthcare has undergone a number of changes that are beginning to
have a significant impact on the demand for information technology including the
evolution of the reimbursement model, the demand for greater communication in a
consolidated healthcare environment, expanding budgets for information
technology and the need to replace legacy systems as the 21st century
approaches.
 
     The changes that have occurred in the way the healthcare market is
reimbursed are perhaps the single most significant driver behind providers'
demand for information technology. Reimbursement for health care has
historically been based on a fee-for-service model of payment. However, in an
attempt to slow the growth
                                        3
<PAGE>   6
 
of healthcare expenditures, the government began a prospective payment system in
the early 1980's. In response to this, managed care has emerged as the
predominant reimbursement model in which healthcare organizations operate. This
change in the reimbursement model, and specifically the forces of managed care,
has placed a tremendous amount of pressure on healthcare providers to remain
profitable without sacrificing their quality of care. This, in turn, has caused
physicians to join together in group practices to share administrative costs and
achieve economies of scale. The expansion in the number of managed care and
third-party payor organizations, as well as additional governmental regulation
and the change in reimbursement models, have greatly increased the complexity of
pricing practices, billing procedures and reimbursement policies in medical
practices. Practice management systems have come to the forefront as a solution
to help providers maintain profitability and efficiency in this environment
while keeping quality high and costs low. Information systems create
efficiencies for providers and reduce administrative costs through automated
billing and scheduling functions. In addition, applications such as managed care
can be used to assess profitability and assist providers in negotiating managed
care and capitation payment contracts.
 
     Today's healthcare marketplace depends on integrated communication across
the entire continuum of care. Sole practitioners and small physician groups,
which once dominated the healthcare marketplace, have now given way to larger
integrated delivery networks that operate in enterprise-wide settings, managing
multiple practices spread across a number of locations. This general increase in
the size and complexity of medical practices has created a greater need for
analysis of data and sharing of patient data. The entire healthcare industry
must invest in this technology in order to fully computerize the flow of
financial and clinical information.
 
     The consolidation in the healthcare industry not only calls for more
dependence on information technology, but it also means organizations are more
likely to have access to capital for information systems. According to the 1998
Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society leadership survey,
providers now spend between 1-3 percent of their operating budgets on
information technology. Though relatively low compared with most other
industries, this amount is expected to double over the next 3-5 years.
 
     With the year 2000 closely approaching, many healthcare providers will opt
to purchase entirely new systems from an information technology vendor rather
than to invest significant capital in maintaining their old legacy systems
in-house. Many legacy systems lack the functionality and technology required by
today's healthcare market and would be difficult to maintain and support in the
year 2000. Most healthcare providers facing this dilemma will therefore, seek an
outside information technology vendor that can provide a functionally rich, Year
2000 compliant product that offers such services as support, maintenance,
training, and help desks.
 
     Even with these pressures, the healthcare industry is behind the times when
it comes to dependence on and demand for information technology. As a result,
the industry is only in its infancy stage, and will undoubtedly expand over the
next several years. As of October 1998, the total market size was approaching
$14 billion, about 1.5 percent of total healthcare expenditures, and is
estimated to reach $21 billion by 2000.
 
BUSINESS STRATEGY
 
     The Company's strategy is to build upon its leadership position as the
provider of the most widely utilized physician practice management system in the
United States. Key elements of this strategy include:
 
     Continuing to Gain Market Share in Core Market.  In November 1997, the
     Company released its Version 9 product. This product is Year 2000 compliant
     and offers many enhancements designed to meet the demands of our clients.
     Approximately 9,000 of the Company's existing sites have upgraded to
     Version 9, thus taking advantage of the new functionality. Version 9 also
     offers a solution for many potential customers and the Company intends to
     aggressively pursue these new opportunities.
 
     Increasing Penetration of Management Service Organizations and Other Large
     Physician Groups.  The Company seeks to increase its sales of
     enterprise-wide systems, products and services to IPAs, PPMs, MSOs and
     large physician groups. As trends in the health care marketplace continue
     to drive physician affiliations, the Company believes there is significant
     opportunity to increase its share of this
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   7
 
     rapidly growing segment of the practice management market. In order to
     capitalize on these opportunities, in 1997, the Company established the
     Enterprise Business Group to coordinate large group sales and support in
     conjunction with the regional subsidiaries and the independent local and
     regional dealers. In addition, the Company has enhanced the functionality
     of The Medical Manager system to deliver increasingly comprehensive
     physician practice management services in enterprise-wide settings. With
     sales of $6.8 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 1998
     and an installed base of over 200 MSOs and PPMs, the Company has
     demonstrated its ability to deliver the software and services which such
     large providers demand. The Company believes that, through its continued
     efforts, it can significantly increase its share of this market segment.
 
     Cross-Selling Products and Services to Existing Client Base.  The Company
     intends to aggressively cross-sell additional products and services to its
     existing client base. A majority of the Company's existing clients do not
     currently use The Medical Manager system's entire suite of products and
     services. Because of its substantial installed base of over 24,000 sites,
     as well as the modular, integrated product design of The Medical Manager
     system, the Company intends to work with the sales offices to target many
     of its customers as candidates for cross-selling opportunities, including
     system upgrades, additional software application modules, services such as
     hardware and software maintenance, system and process planning, project
     management, custom programming and electronic data interchange ("EDI")
     capabilities.
 
     Continuing Development of New Products, Product Enhancements and
     Services.  The Company intends to continue its leadership role in the
     development and introduction of new products, product enhancements and
     services for the physician practice marketplace. To do so, the Company
     intends to continue to commit significant financial and human resources to
     its research and development efforts. A key focus of the Company's research
     and development efforts is the further enhancement of The Medical Manager
     system's ability to operate within a variety of integrated delivery
     environments. The Company's strategic development initiatives include
     advanced systems, such as a version of The Medical Manager software
     incorporating relational databases, a graphical user interface and enhanced
     client-server applications. The Company develops new products, product
     enhancements and services with input from its physician-clients.
 
     Continuing to Enhance EDI Opportunities.  The change to a paperless society
     has fueled significant growth in EDI and E-commerce. Recently, EDI has
     expanded to include such real time transactions as clinical data,
     computer-based patient records, electronic prescription, lab test
     requisitions, insurance eligibility verification, decision support and
     outcomes measurement. To compete in this market, Medical Manager
     Corporation introduced Medical Manager Network Services ("MMNS") in 1997, a
     division specifically dedicated to the Company's EDI offerings. Because the
     EDI marketplace is currently fragmented, MMNS has developed relationships
     with EDI leaders such as Envoy Corporation and National Data Corporation to
     provide our clients a single-source EDI connection. The Company will
     continue to market these EDI services to our current provider marketplace
     and to new customers. The Company intends to enhance EDI opportunities for
     its customers through such future offerings as on-line claims adjudication
     and internet services.
 
     Consolidating and Rationalizing the Distribution Network.  The Company
     intends to continue the consolidation and rationalization of The Medical
     Manager distribution network which began upon the consummation of the IPO
     in February 1997. Prior to the 1990s, when independent physician practices
     were most prevalent, the local focus of The Medical Manager independent
     dealer network effectively addressed the practice management needs of the
     market. However, due to the numerous trends in the health care industry
     toward improved efficiency and cost containment, physicians have been
     forced to consolidate into larger practice organizations. To meet the needs
     of these larger groups, the Company believes it is necessary to adopt and
     implement a two-fold product distribution strategy that includes the
     acquisition of dealers in major medical communities and large metropolitan
     markets and the rationalization of the Company's remaining independent
     dealers. The acquisition of certain independent dealers in strategic
     markets should enable the Company to market more effectively to larger
     customers while assisting the remaining independent dealers in conducting
     their marketing activities. The Company's strategy for its independent
     dealer network includes the standardization of the independent dealers in

                                        5

     order to ensure that The Medical Manager system is sold and supported on a
     consistent and effective basis throughout the dealer network. The Company
     intends to continue to use its existing network of independent dealers as
     an integral part of its distribution network for The Medical Manager
     software.
 
     Continuing to Leverage Size to Create Efficiencies and Reduce Costs.  As a
     result of the Mergers and subsequent acquisitions, the Company has achieved
     significant benefits through a national market presence, centralized client
     support and the implementation of a national retail pricing structure. The
     Mergers and subsequent acquisitions have created a vertically-integrated
     entity that has greater financial strength and stability, which allows the
     Company to compete more effectively on national, regional and local levels.
     The Company has established local and regional resource centers, supported
     by centralized corporate and regional operations, including help desks, EDI
     departments and advanced technical and programming personnel. While
     significant efficiencies have already been achieved, the Company expects
     this structure to provide an even greater reduction of costs in the future.
 
PRODUCTS
 
     The Medical Manager software is an integrated practice management system
encompassing patient care, clinical, financial and management applications. Due
to its scalable design, The Medical Manager software is a cost-effective
solution in a stand-alone or enterprise-wide environment. The Medical Manager
system is designed to operate on a wide range of hardware platforms, from
Intel-based computer systems for small and medium sized practices, to RISC-based
systems, such as the IBM RS/6000 and Hewlett-Packard 9000, for larger practices.
Its modular, fully integrated product portfolio allows clients to add
incremental capabilities to existing information systems while preserving and
minimizing the need for capital investments. The latest version of The Medical
Manager software is Year 2000 enabled.
 
     In August of 1998, the Company announced that it was developing and had
begun in-house testing of a patch that would allow its previous version, Version
8, first released in November 1993, to handle the date change to the new
century. This patch, Version 8.12, is now available for general distribution to
its independent sales offices and its installed base.
 
     The pricing of The Medical Manager system is a function of the number of
modules purchased, the number of users per site, the number of practices, the
operating system and the complexity of the installation. Hardware support,
software support and services are priced separately from software products and
are typically coordinated by the dealer.
 
     The Medical Manager system provides to physician practices a broad range of
patient care and practice management features, including:
 
                                CORE APPLICATION

                                         issues concerning medical records: creation and
                                         maintenance of medical records, simultaneous access to
                                         patient records, remote access and data for analysis.
                                         Includes patient encounter knowledge base and generates
                                         automated progress notes.
Document and Image Management System...  Allows a practice to organize and store patient
                                         photographs, X-rays, and other documents, and to instantly
                                         retrieve images and associated image information to the
                                         screen as part of the patient's medical record. General
                                         practice documents such as EOB's and financial statements
                                         can also be organized and stored.

CLIENT SERVICES
 
     The Company's Client Services Division provides a wide range of services to
the entire client base to ensure customer satisfaction and maximize the utility
of The Medical Manager system. These services include both fundamental and
value-added services as described below:
 
     Implementation Services.  These services include planning, design and
     installation of software, hardware and network solutions for stand-alone
     practices to enterprise-wide environments. To ensure customer satisfaction,
     the Company utilizes a team approach involving technical and professional
     staff members who have a broad array of technical and business expertise.
     This team approach includes project engineering, business redesign and
     practice staff re-education. A client relationship manager, part of the
     team from the outset, works with the client throughout the life of the
     contract.
 
     Support Services.  A critical element in assuring proper use of and
     satisfaction with the Company's products involves ongoing support services
     provided to the end-users. The Company provides to its clients continuing
     software and hardware support under agreements that typically have a one
     year term. These agreements provide for general support via help desks,
     error corrections to software, remote diagnostics and on-site hardware and
     software technicians. Support services are provided during normal business
     hours and can be expanded to include seven days a week, 24 hour coverage.
     As of December 31, 1998, the Company had 336 full-time employees devoted to
     providing support services to its customer base.
 
     Value-Added Services.  The Company advises its enterprise-wide clients on
     how best to bring together disparate physician practices into an integrated
     health care delivery network. The Company works in partnership with its
     client's clinical and administrative management in the areas of patient and
     workflow redesign, job function review and re-education, standardization
     consultation, project engineer-
 
                                       10
<PAGE>   13
 
     ing, timeline and resource management and ongoing relationship management.
     The Company and many of its independent dealers maintain substantial
     resources capable of providing custom programming solutions for a broad
     range of client requests. Many of these solutions may be generated at the
     regional and local levels using the Company's Data Merge language, which
     allows modification to be made without changing source code.
 
     Training and Continuing Education.  The Company believes initial training
     and continuing education are key components in ensuring customer
     satisfaction and retention and, accordingly, has devoted significant
     resources to its Educational Services Division. Because The Medical Manager
     software has been in use for 14 years, a substantial amount of experience
     and expertise has been gained by the Company's training staff in optimizing
     methodology and curriculum to achieve the best results. As of December 31,
     1998, the Company had 130 full-time employees in its Education Services
     Division. Training methods include classroom and computer-based training,
     on-site visits for system setup and review and video training tapes
     available on selected modules. The Company also assists its clients in
     developing their own training staff, materials and guidelines. Continuing
     education programs, a quarterly newsletter and user group conferences are
     sponsored by the Company, providing the user with valuable information as
     well as an opportunity for the Company to demonstrate new enhancements and
     features of the product. The Company makes available to clients extensive
     user documentation and reference manuals including, among others,
     installation guides, advanced system manuals, a custom report writer manual
     and an MSO implementation workbook.
 
SALES AND MARKETING
 
     The Company sells its products and services nationally through a direct
sales organization consisting of 169 sales personnel, as well as through its
independent dealer network of approximately 130 dealers. This distribution
effort is responsible for sales to new clients, ranging in size from sole
practitioners to enterprise-wide clients, and follow-on sales of upgrades and
enhancements to existing clients. To enhance the effectiveness of its selling
effort, the Company provides its sales force and independent dealer network with
(i) comprehensive training in the Company's products and services, (ii)
marketing materials, and (iii) on-going support.
 
     To address the more complex needs of larger potential clients, the Company
has formed the Enterprise Business Group. The Enterprise Business Group
coordinates the Company's sales effort for large clients (such as MSOs, IPAs and
managed care organizations) and assists in the implementation of systems and the
maintenance of ongoing client relationships. Many of the independent dealers are
experienced in selling to and supporting enterprise wide clients. The Company
has continued to utilize the Enterprise Business Group to assist local and
regional dealers in these efforts. At the enterprise-wide client level,
relationship managers work with the client throughout the contract term to keep
informed of customer expectations and help ensure customer satisfaction.
 
     Small and medium-sized sales, routinely handled by the direct sales force
and independent dealers, generally involve a sales cycle of 30 to 60 days.
Larger sales, managed by the Enterprise Business Group, typically involve a
Request For Proposal ("RFP") process which lengthens the sales cycle to 60 to 90
days or longer. Hardware and software maintenance agreements are generally
renewed on an annual basis. Standard payment terms are 50% due upon system
order, with the balance due upon completion of system installation.
 
     The Company generates sales leads through referrals from customers and
management consultants, responses to RFP's, strategic alliances with
complementary companies, the Company's Internet web sites and associated links,
industry seminars, trade shows, direct telephone and mail campaigns and
advertisements in trade journals.
 
     In order to capitalize on opportunities to cross-sell its products and
services to existing clients, the Company maintains contacts with its clients at
the local, regional and national levels through electronic mail links on its
Internet web sites, monthly and quarterly newsletters, technical updates,
product release bulletins, user meetings, training seminars, industry
conferences and market-specific seminars, such as its MSO User Conference. The
Company also works with certain of its client base on the selection,
implementation, use and
                                       11

benefits the product and publishes these as Client Profiles, providing both the
client and the Company with market exposure and the opportunity to share
successes.
 
     An educational license of The Medical Manager physician practice management
system has been utilized to teach office automation within the medical field for
more than eight years. The system has been installed in vocational schools,
junior colleges and universities nationwide. Delmar Publishers Inc., one of the
leading educational textbook publishers in the country, markets a student
textbook and instructor's manual for courses that teach computer skills in the
medical field, using The Medical Manager software. Since 1988, more than 400
site licenses of the educational version have been sold.
 
DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
 
     Prior to the 1990s, when independent physician practices were most
prevalent, the local focus of the Company's independent dealers of The Medical
Manager software effectively addressed the practice management needs of the
market. However, due to the numerous trends in the health care industry focusing
attention on the delivery of high quality and cost effective care (as well as
the need to demonstrate such quality and effectiveness), individual physicians
and small group practices have been forced to pool their resources in order to
compete effectively. As a result, large physician organizations have become much
more prevalent in the medical marketplace. To keep pace with the increasingly
sophisticated practice management needs of these larger groups, the Company has
been consolidating in order to build the necessary technical, service and
support resources.
 
     Company-owned Dealer Network.  The Company distributes, installs, supports
     and services The Medical Manager software through six Company-owned
     dealerships. These dealerships provide installation, support and service of
     The Medical Manager software to both larger customers and individual
     physician and small group practices.
 
     Independent Dealer Network.  The Company believes that a fundamental and
     unique strength of The Medical Manager system is its nationwide dealer
     network, which currently includes approximately 130 dealer organizations.
     As a result of the many years of selling and supporting The Medical Manager
     product line, the personnel in the Company's dealer network represent a
     valuable resource. The Company's strategy for its independent dealer
     network includes the rationalization of the independent dealers in order to
     ensure that The Medical Manager system is sold and supported on a
     consistent and effective basis throughout the dealer network. The Company
     intends to continue to use its existing network of independent dealers as
     an integral part of its distribution network for The Medical Manager
     software. The Company will work with its independent dealers to institute a
     program to standardize hardware configurations, client training programs
     and service levels developed by the Company. The Company will also provide
     services to the independent dealers, many of which are unable to provide
     such resources as independent entities. Such services include: (i) dealer
     training, (ii) help desks, (iii) advanced technical services, such as
     custom programming services, and (iv) sales support for large systems sales
     from the Enterprise Business Group.
 
     Dealer Acquisitions.  The Company believes that it must have representation
     in all major medical communities and metropolitan markets throughout the
     United States. As a result, the Company's dealer acquisition strategy has
     focused on acquiring dealerships that had both a strong presence in key
     markets and demonstrated expertise with The Medical Manager product line.
     Since the Company's IPO in February 1997, the Company has acquired 42 of
     its independent dealers. The Company will continue to acquire those
     independent dealers which are in strategic markets.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
     The Company seeks to meet the needs of its clients by continuing to develop
new products and enhancements of existing products. Accordingly, the Company
believes that continued leadership in the practice management systems industry
will require significant additional commitments of resources to research and
development. The Company maintains its research and development campus in
Alachua,
 
                                       12
<PAGE>   15
 
Florida, where development of The Medical Manager software began over 17 years
ago. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had 92 employees engaged primarily in
its research and development efforts.
 
     The Company's research and development activities involve Company personnel
as well as physicians, physician groups practice staff and leading health care
institutions. A key goal of current research and development efforts involves
adapting The Medical Manager system to operate more effectively within
integrated delivery environments. To achieve this goal, the Company is pursuing
a strategic development initiative directed toward the development of advanced
health care information systems that include a relational database, graphical
user interfaces and enhanced client-server applications. The Company's current
research and development efforts continue the tradition of The Medical Manager

     Current focus areas for new product development and enhancement include the
following:
 
  ENTERPRISE SYSTEM
 
     The Company intends to develop an increasing number of automation tools to
support the growing number of integrated health care delivery systems across the
nation. Developments within The Medical Manager's MSO Enterprise System are
expected to include enterprise appointment and resource scheduling and
enterprise communications. In addition, further developments in The Medical
Manager software's
 
                                       13
<PAGE>   16
 
connectivity engines should continue to promote the open exchange of information
between medical institutions.
 
  MANAGED CARE
 
     Physicians realize that sophisticated health care automation systems are
required to support managed care, compete for capitated contracts and contain
healthcare costs while providing effective, high quality care. Development
efforts within the Managed Care module are expected to result in a product that
provides referral outcome reporting that can perform outcome analysis across
multiple practices within the provider network. As managed care matures, new
markets will be created that require the support of automation. Development
efforts within the Managed Care module will be designed to support the evolving
subcapitation market by allowing primary care groups to receive the total
capitation from a payor and allocate the capitation payment among contracted
specialists for services they have provided.
 
  CLINICAL APPLICATIONS
 
     The Company recognizes that improvements in the technology that supports
the gathering, storing, retrieving and reporting of clinical data and the
creation of a sophisticated computerized patient record system are critical to
the enhancement and improvement of health care delivery across the United
States. As a result, the Company is engaged in efforts to rapidly develop
fully-integrated components of a computerized patient record containing
functionality and knowledge bases that support the way physicians provide health
care services. Research and analysis of various input technologies and devices
continue with the goal of providing physicians with usable tools that will allow
them to effectively gather and use clinical data at the point-of-care. The
Company is devoting considerable resources in the area of document and image
management pursuing the goal of a fully paperless office.
 
  GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE
 
     The Company is continuing development on products utilizing a graphical
user interface and a relational database. The Company's development efforts are
intended to produce a product that will support users opting to install
technology to support a Windows environment, as well as providing the Company's
current installed base with a graphical user application which does not require
a sizable hardware investment.
 
  WEB BASED PRODUCTS
 
     The Company intends to enable The Medical Manager product to support web
access as well as seamless integration with other web-based products and
services.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
     As of December 31, 1998, the Company had 1,152 employees. No employees are
covered by any collective bargaining agreements. The Company considers its
relationships with its employees to be good.
 
RISK FACTORS
 
  YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
 
     The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in
existing computer systems as the year 2000 approaches. The Year 2000 issue
relates to whether computer systems will properly recognize and process
information relating to dates in and after the year 2000. These systems could
fail or produce erroneous results if they cannot adequately process dates beyond
the year 1999 and are not corrected. Significant uncertainty exists in the
software industry concerning the potential consequences that may result from the
failure of software to adequately address the Year 2000 issue.
 
                                       14
<PAGE>   17
 
     NON-PROPRIETARY (INTERNAL) SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE
 
     The Year 2000 issue creates risk for the Company from unforeseen problems
in its own computer systems and from third parties with which the Company deals
nationwide. The Company has undertaken a program, headed by a four-person Year
2000 Compliance Team, to determine that its systems will operate smoothly as the
year 2000 approaches. This process began with an inventory of the systems vital
to the Company's operations to identify those that may be affected by the Year
2000 issue. In addition, third party vendors and business partners which the
Company relies upon have been asked to confirm that their systems will be Year
2000 compliant. All critical systems have been assessed and a prioritized
implementation schedule has been defined for upgrading those systems which are
not currently Year 2000 compliant. The critical systems recognized by the year
2000 Compliance Team included financial and accounting systems, human resource
systems, customer support call management systems, telecommunications systems,
commercial general and administrative software used internally, hardware
systems, and other databases including enrollment and serialization databases.
 
     FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS.  In the second quarter of 1998, the
Company purchased a Year 2000 compliant version of its financial and accounting
software. All subsidiaries of the Company have been using the Year 2000
compliant version of the accounting system since that time. The cost of the
upgrade of the accounting systems was insignificant and, in accordance with
Company policy, was capitalized to be amortized over its appropriate life.
 
     HUMAN RESOURCE SYSTEMS.  For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company
used an outside vendor to process payroll. The Company made a decision to
internalize the payroll function by January 1, 1999. The Company's Human
Resources Department purchased a software package which is certified as Year
2000 compliant by the author, created the database for use with the software and
tested the software during the fourth quarter of 1998. The Company's payroll
went live on the new software on January 1, 1999. The cost of the new Human
Resources system and database was insignificant and, in accordance with Company
policy, was capitalized to be amortized over its appropriate life.
 
     CUSTOMER SUPPORT CALL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS.  The Company uses a software
package to assist in recording, assigning and clearing of customer hardware and
support calls. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company purchased a new
software package, which is Year 2000 compliant, to perform these functions. The
software was tested concurrently with the Company's previous support call
management software for one month and is now in use by four subsidiaries of the
Company. The Company intends to have all subsidiaries on the new call management
system by the end of 1999. The Company's previous support software was earmarked
for replacement without regard for the Year 2000 issue and thus the cost of the
system is not considered a part of the Company's costs of Year 2000 compliance.
 
     TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS.  Telecommunications systems of the Company
include not only voice communications, but significant data communications
systems such as e-mail and an internal network providing each subsidiary access
to servers located at the corporate offices. In October 1998, the Company
selected a single national vendor for all voice and data communications
throughout the Company. This vendor has provided a statement of their Year 2000
general plan which provides for a March 31, 1999 target completion date to be
completely Year 2000 compliant. The implementation of the new system is expected
to save the Company approximately $0.5 million over the next two years and thus,
the cost of the initial outlay for making the telecommunications systems Year
2000 compliant will be fully recovered.
 
     VARIOUS GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE SOFTWARE.  As a result of the Year 2000
Compliance Team's efforts, the Company has noted that a portion of the current
in-house personal computers are known to be non-Year 2000 compliant. Some
workstations also have software programs installed which are not Year 2000
compliant. The Company has defined a minimum standard Year 2000 compliant
workstation with standardized software. The target date to have all workstations
in line with the minimum standard is March 31, 1999. Approximately 98% of this
project has been completed. The costs of upgrading all remaining workstations is
estimated to be less than $0.3 million.
 
                                       15
<PAGE>   18
 
     OTHER DATABASES.  The Year 2000 Compliance Team has recognized two critical
databases used internally by the Company. The Network Services Client Enrollment
database is currently Year 2000 compliant. The Medical Manager Software
Serialization Database is stored in an internally written database which is not
Year 2000 compliant. The Company has scheduled an upgrade of this database to
Access 97, a completely Year 2000 compliant database package, for the third
quarter of 1999. The estimated costs of this upgrade will be the cost of
salaried employees which should not exceed $50,000 per quarter through the year
1999.
 
     THIRD PARTY RELATIONSHIPS.  The third party relationships identified as
critical to the Company's operations are computer hardware distributors and
shipping companies. As part of a standardization initiative which began in late
1997, the Company has partnered with three national distributors to supply all
hardware and third party software products sold to clients. All three companies
have provided documents stating that they are Year 2000 compliant. In addition,
all shipping companies used by the Company and other vendors have provided
documents stating their Year 2000 readiness.
 
     The Company intends to continue to monitor the Year 2000 compliance of its
internal software and hardware packages, telecommunications systems, and
vendors. In the event that any of the Company's systems, or any of the Company's
vendors' systems, do not meet the Year 2000 requirement by December 31, 1999,
the Company could experience difficulties, including but not limited to, in
processing sales and other financial information, customer support calls,
serializations of the Company's product and orders of supplies from vendors.
This could have a materially adverse affect on the Company's financial position,
results of operations, or business. Although the Company expects its systems,
and its vendors' systems, to be Year 2000 compliant on or before December 31,
1999, it cannot predict the success of the Company's Year 2000 compliance
program. The Company does not anticipate problems with the Year 2000
preparedness of its internal hardware and software. If the Company experiences a
failure in its Year 2000 preparedness, the Company's contingency plan includes
the redeployment of experienced staff to address those Year 2000 compliance
issues.
 
     PROPRIETARY (EXTERNAL SOFTWARE)
 
     The Year 2000 issue also creates risk for the Company from problems that
may be experienced by customers of its software. While Version 9 of The Medical
Manager practice management system, which was commercially released in November
1997, is Year 2000 compliant, prior versions of the system are not. The Company
has encouraged users of pre-Version 9 versions of The Medical Manager software
to upgrade to Version 9 in order to become Year 2000 compliant. In August of
1998, the Company announced that it was developing and had begun in-house
testing of a patch that would allow its previous version, Version 8, first
released in November 1993, to handle the date change to the new century. This
patch, Version 8.12, is now available for general distribution to its
independent sales offices for installation for users of Versions 7 and 8.
However, there is no assurance that Versions 7 and 8, with or without the Year
2000 patch will not create additional issues for users of the software
including, but not limited to, additional costs for upgraded hardware,
additional costs for new operating systems and personnel training, additional
costs for conversion of Version 7 data, and the fact that Versions 7 and 8 do
not take into account current industry and regulatory requirements. Version 9
will remain the only enhanced and maintained version of the software.
 
     A class action lawsuit was brought against the Company alleging Year 2000
issues regarding The Medical Manager software in versions prior to Version 9.0.
Seven additional lawsuits were also brought against the Company, each purporting
to sue on behalf of those similarly situated and raising essentially the same
issues. In December 1998, the Company preliminarily entered into an agreement to
settle the class action lawsuit, as well as five of the seven other similar
cases. The settlement created a settlement class of all purchasers of Version 7
and 8 and certain upgrades to Version 9 of The Medical Manager software, and
released the Company from Year 2000 claims arising out of the sales of these
versions of the Company's product. Under the terms of the settlement, Version
8.12, containing the Company's upgraded Version of 8.11 software with the Year
2000 patch, will be licensed without a license fee to Version 7 and 8 users who
participate in the settlement. In addition, the settlement also provides that
participating users who purchased a Version 9 upgrade will have the option to
obtain one of four optional modules from the Company without a license fee,

                                       16
<PAGE>   19
 
or to elect to take a share of a settlement cash fund. The settlement required
the Company to make a cash payment of $1.455 million. The settlement was
approved by the District Court of New Jersey on March 15, 1999. Pursuant to the
settlement, the Company was released from liability due to the Year 2000 non-
compliance of Versions 7 and 8 by all users of Versions 7 and 8 except 29 users
who "opted-out" of the class settlement.
 
     While the Company does not believe costs incurred by the Company to
distribute and install the Year 2000 patch will be material, there can be no
assurance that such costs will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, there can
be no assurance that the existence of the Year 2000 patch will not delay or
reduce the migration of users to Version 9 from earlier versions. Further, if
Version 9 or other customers experience significant difficulties as a result of
the Year 2000 issue, or if the Company encounters difficulties in responding in
a timely manner to customer requests to upgrade to Version 9, there could be a
material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations, financial
condition or business.
 
  DEPENDENCE ON PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS
 
     The Company currently derives a significant percentage of its revenue from
sales of The Medical Manager core system. As a result, any event adversely
affecting sales of its core product could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations, financial condition or business. Although the
Company has experienced increasing annual sales, on a pro forma basis, revenue
associated with existing products could decline as a result of several factors,
including price competition and sales practices. There can be no assurance that
the Company will continue to be successful in marketing its current products or
any new or enhanced products. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business -- Research and
Development."
 
  DEPENDENCE ON PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE
 
     As competing health care information systems increase in complexity and
overall capabilities and the functionality of these systems further overlap,
providers of such systems may become increasingly subject to infringement
claims. The Company believes that its products, trademarks and other proprietary
rights do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties. There can
be no assurance, however, that third parties will not assert infringement claims
against the Company in the future or that any such assertion will not require
the Company to enter into a license agreement or royalty arrangement with the
party asserting the claim. Responding to and defending any such claims may
distract the attention of the Company's management and otherwise have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or
business.
 
  PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND LICENSES
 
     The Company's success is dependent to a significant extent on its ability
to protect the proprietary and confidential aspects of its software technology.
The Company's software technology is not patented and existing copyright laws
offer only limited practical protection. The Company relies on a combination of
trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, license agreements, nondisclosure
and other contractual provisions and technical measures to establish and protect
its proprietary rights in its products. The Company distributes its products
under software license agreements that grant clients a nonexclusive,
nontransferable license to the Company's products. In addition, the Company
attempts to protect its trade secrets and other proprietary information through
agreements with employees and consultants. Substantially all of the Company's
current employees involved in product development have signed an assignment of
inventions agreement. There can be no assurance that the legal protections
afforded to the Company or the precautions taken by the Company will be adequate
to prevent misappropriation of the Company's technology. These protections do
not prevent independent third-party development of functionally equivalent or
superior technologies, products or services. There can also be no assurance that
the United States Patent and Trademark Office will not grant patent protection
to a third party which has independently developed a product or process which is
the same or substantially similar to the Company's product, process, or
services. Any infringement or misappropriation of

                                       17
<PAGE>   20
 
the Company's proprietary software, or infringement by the Company of newly
patent protected technologies, products or services, could cause the Company to
lose revenues, pay patent royalties or incur substantial litigation expense. The
Company believes that, due to the rapid pace of innovation within the software
industry, factors such as the technological and creative skills of its personnel
and ongoing reliable product maintenance and support are more important in
establishing and maintaining a leadership position within the industry than are
the various legal protections afforded to its technology.
 
  RISKS RELATED TO TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
 
     The market for the Company's products is characterized by rapid change and
technological advances requiring ongoing expenditures for research and
development and the timely introduction of new products and enhancements of
existing products. The Company's future success will depend in part upon its
ability to enhance its current products, to respond effectively to technological
changes, to sell additional products to its existing client base and to
introduce new products and technologies that address the increasingly
sophisticated needs of its clients. The Company will devote significant
resources to the development of enhancements to its existing products and the
migration of existing products to new software platforms. There can be no
assurance that the Company will successfully complete the development of new
products or the migration of products to new platforms or that the Company's
current or future products will satisfy the needs of the market for practice
management systems. Further, there can be no assurance that products or
technologies developed by others will not adversely affect the Company's
competitive position or render its products or technologies noncompetitive or
obsolete. See "Business -- Research and Development."
 
  QUALITY ASSURANCE AND PRODUCT ACCEPTANCE CONCERNS
 
     Health care providers demand the highest level of reliability and quality
from their information systems. Although the Company devotes substantial
resources to meeting these demands, its products may, from time to time, contain
errors. Such errors may result in loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of its
products. Delays or difficulties associated with new product introductions or
product enhancements could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations, financial condition or business. See "Business --
Research and Development".
 
  RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACQUISITION STRATEGY
 
     As part of its growth strategy, the Company intends to acquire additional
independent dealers of The Medical Manager physician practice management system
and complementary technologies outside of the dealer network. Increased
competition for acquisition candidates among the independent dealers or outside
the dealer network may develop, in which event there may be fewer acquisition
opportunities available to the Company as well as higher acquisition prices.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify, acquire or
profitably integrate and manage additional dealers or complementary
technologies, if any, into the Company without substantial costs, delays or
other operational or financial problems. Further, acquisitions involve a number
of special risks, including possible adverse effects on the Company's operating
results, diversion of management's attention, failure to retain key acquired
personnel, amortization of acquired intangible assets and risks associated with
unanticipated events or liabilities, some or all of which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or
business. Customer dissatisfaction or performance problems at a single acquired
company could have an adverse effect on the reputation of the Company and render
ineffective the Company's national sales and marketing initiative. In addition,
there can be no assurance that dealers or complementary technologies acquired in
the future will achieve anticipated revenue and earnings. There also can be no
assurance that the existing dealer network will be receptive to the Company's
acquisition program or that dealers who are not acquired by the Company will
adhere to the Company's marketing, training, support and pricing directives,
thereby impairing the Company's plans to rationalize its distribution network.
See "Business -- Business Strategy."

<PAGE>   21
 
  POSSIBLE NEED FOR ACQUISITION FINANCING
 
     The Company currently intends to finance future acquisitions by using
shares of its Common Stock for all or a substantial portion of the consideration
to be paid. In the event that its Common Stock does not maintain a sufficient
market value, or potential acquisition candidates are otherwise unwilling to
accept Common Stock as part of the consideration for the sale of their
businesses, the Company may be required to utilize more of its cash resources,
if available, in order to initiate and maintain its acquisition program. If the
Company does not have sufficient cash resources, its growth could be limited
unless it is able to obtain additional capital through debt or equity
financings. On January 14, 1998, the Company entered into a $10.0 million line
of credit agreement with NationsBank of Tampa. The line of credit matures on May
31, 1999. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
financing beyond the maturity date of this line of credit. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
  COMPETITION
 
     The market for practice management systems such as The Medical Manager
system is highly competitive. The Company's competitors vary in size and in the
scope and breadth of the products and services they offer. The Company competes
with different companies in each of its target markets. Many of the Company's
competitors have greater financial, development, technical, marketing and sales
resources than the Company. In addition, other entities not currently offering
products and services similar to those offered by the Company, including claims
processing organizations, hospitals, third-party administrators, insurers,
health care organizations and others, may enter certain markets in which the
Company competes. There can be no assurance that future competition will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial
condition or business.
 
  RISK OF PRODUCT-RELATED CLAIMS
 
     Certain of the Company's products provide applications that relate to
financial records, patient medical records and treatment plans. Any failure of
the Company's products to provide accurate, confidential and timely information
could result in product liability or breach of contract claims against the
Company by its clients, their patients or others. The Company's products manage
and report on financial data, and any errors in such financial data could result
in liability to the Company. In addition, because the Company's products
facilitate electronic claims submissions, any resulting loss of financial data
could result in liability to the Company. The Company maintains insurance to
protect against claims associated with the use of its products, but there can be
no assurance that such insurance coverage will be available or, if available,
will adequately cover any claim asserted against the Company. A successful claim
brought against the Company in excess of its insurance coverage could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial
condition or business. Even unsuccessful claims could result in the expenditure
of funds in litigation, as well as diversion of management time and resources.
There can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to product
liability or breach of contract claims, that such claims will not result in
liability in excess of its insurance coverage, that the Company's insurance will
cover such claims or that appropriate insurance will continue to be available to
the Company in the future at commercially reasonable rates.
 
  DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
 
     The Company's operations are dependent on the continued efforts of the
executive officers and the senior management of the Founding Companies.
Furthermore, the Company will likely be dependent on the senior management of
any businesses acquired in the future. If any of these persons becomes unable or
unwilling to continue in his or her role with the Company, or if the Company is
unable to attract and retain other qualified employees, the Company's business
or prospects could be adversely affected. Although the Company has entered into
an employment agreement, which includes confidentiality and non-compete
provisions, with each of the Company's executive officers, there can be no
assurance that any individual will continue in his present capacity with the
Company for any particular period of time. The success of the Company is also
dependent to a significant degree on its ability to attract, motivate and retain
highly skilled sales, marketing and technical

                                       19
<PAGE>   22
 
personnel, including software programmers and systems architects skilled in the
computer language with which the Company's products operate. Competition for
such personnel in the software and information services industries is intense.
The loss of key personnel or the inability to hire or retain qualified personnel
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations,
financial condition or business. Although the Company has been successful to
date in attracting and retaining skilled personnel, there can be no assurance
that the Company will continue to be successful in attracting and retaining the
personnel it requires to successfully develop new and enhanced products and to
continue to grow and operate profitably.
 
  UNCERTAINTY IN HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY; GOVERNMENT HEALTH CARE REFORM PROPOSALS
 
     The health care industry in the United States is subject to changing
political, economic and regulatory influences that may affect the procurement
practices and operations of health care organizations. The Company's products
are designed to function within the structure of the health care financing and
reimbursement system currently being used in the United States. During the past
several years, the health care industry has been subject to increasing levels of
government regulation of, among other things, reimbursement rates and certain
capital expenditures. From time to time, certain proposals to reform the health
care system have been considered by Congress. These proposals, if enacted, may
increase government involvement in health care, lower reimbursement rates and
otherwise change the operating environment for the Company's clients. Health
care organizations may react to these proposals and the uncertainty surrounding
such proposals by curtailing or deferring investments, including those for the
Company's products and services. The Company cannot predict with any certainty
what impact, if any, such proposals or health care reforms might have on its
results of operations, financial condition or business.
 
  RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
     The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") has jurisdiction under
the 1976 Medical Device Amendments to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(the "FDA Act") to regulate computer products and software as medical devices if
they are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or
prevention of disease in humans. The FDA has issued a final rule under which
manufacturers of certain medical image devices and related software are required
to submit to the FDA premarket notification applications and otherwise comply
with the requirements of the FDA Act applicable to medical devices.
 
     The Company is distributing in the United States a medical image management
device (the "image module"), which was cleared by the FDA on April 4, 1997 and
is manufactured by a third party in accordance with the specifications set forth
in the cleared 510(k). The Company has created an interface between The Medical
Manager practice management system and the image module and is marketing the
interface and the image module as the Document Image Management System. The
Company believes that the addition of the Company's practice management system
to the image module does not change the image module's intended use or
significantly change the product such that a new 510(k) is required.
 
     The FDA is currently reviewing its policy for the regulation of computer
software and there is a risk that The Medical Manager software could in the
future become subject to some or all of the above requirements, which could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial
condition or business.
 
  CONTROL BY EXISTING MANAGEMENT AND STOCKHOLDERS
 
     The Company's directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of
the Common Stock beneficially own approximately 38.8% of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock as of December 31, 1998. Although these persons do not presently
have any agreements or understandings to act in concert, any such agreement or
understanding could allow them to continue to exercise substantial control over
the Company's affairs, to substantially influence the election of the entire
Board of Directors and to substantially control the disposition of any matter
submitted to a vote of stockholders.
 
                                       20
<PAGE>   23
 
  POTENTIAL ADVERSE MARKET IMPACT OF SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
     The market price of the Common Stock may be adversely affected by the sale,
or availability for sale, of substantial amounts of the Common Stock in the
public market. The 6,000,000 shares sold in the IPO are freely tradable unless
held by affiliates of the Company. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO,
the stockholders of the Founding Companies received, in the aggregate 11,705,470
shares of Common Stock as a portion of the consideration for the sale of their
businesses to the Company. These shares were not registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and, therefore, may not be sold
unless registered under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to an exemption from
registration, such as the exemption provided by Rule 144. The stockholders who
received these shares also have certain demand and piggyback registration rights
with respect to these shares. In April 1998, 1,000,000 of the 11,705,470 shares
were registered and sold by the stockholders during the completion of the
Company's second underwritten public offering ("SPO") of Common Stock. These
shares are now freely tradable unless held by affiliates of the Company. Of the
2,500,000 shares offered to the public in the SPO, the remaining 1,500,000 were
sold by the Company and are freely tradable unless held by affiliates of the
Company. The Company has also registered 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock which
may be used in connection with future acquisitions. Such shares shall, upon
issuance thereof, be freely tradeable, unless acquired by parties in connection
with an acquisition by the Company or affiliates thereof, other than the issuer,
in which case they may be sold pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act. In
addition, resale of these shares may be contractually restricted.
 
  POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE
 
     The market price of the Common Stock may be subject to significant
fluctuations in response to numerous factors, including variations in the annual
or quarterly financial results of the Company or its competitors, changes by
financial research analysts in their estimates of the earnings of the Company,
conditions in the economy in general or in the health care or technology sectors
in particular, announcements of technological innovations or new products or
services by the Company or its competitors, proprietary rights development,
unfavorable publicity or changes in applicable laws and regulations (or judicial
or administrative interpretations thereof) affecting the Company or the health
care or technology sectors. Moreover, from time to time, the stock market
experiences significant price and volume volatility that may affect the market
price of the Common Stock for reasons unrelated to the Company's performance.
 
  ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT OF CERTAIN CHARTER AND BY-LAW PROVISIONS
 
     The Board of Directors of the Company is empowered to issue preferred stock
in one or more series without stockholder action. The existence of this
"blank-check" preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an
attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a tender offer, merger,
proxy contest or otherwise. In addition, the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") provides for a classified
Board of Directors, which may also have the effect of inhibiting or delaying a
change in control of the Company. Certain provisions of the Delaware General
Corporation Law may also discourage takeover attempts that have not been
approved by the Board of Directors. The Company's By-laws contain other
provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect.
 
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES
 
     The Company's principal corporate offices are located at 3001 North Rocky
Point Drive East, Tampa, Florida. The Company's research and development
facilities are located in Alachua, Florida. The Company also maintains national
sales and support offices in Mountain View, California, and has 58 additional
offices in various regions of the country.
 
     The Company leases the majority of its properties with remaining terms
between one and six years. Six of the Company's facilities are owned. The
Company believes that its facilities are adequate for its current needs and that
suitable additional space will be available as required.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
     A class action lawsuit was brought against the Company alleging Year 2000
issues regarding The Medical Manager software in versions prior to Version 9.0.
Seven additional lawsuits were also brought against the Company, each purporting
to sue on behalf of those similarly situated and raising essentially the same
issues. In December 1998, the Company preliminarily entered into an agreement to
settle the class action lawsuit, as well as five of the seven other similar
cases. The settlement created a settlement class of all purchasers of Version 7
and 8 and upgrades to Version 9 of The Medical Manager software, and released
the Company from Year 2000 claims arising out of the sales of these versions of
the Company's product. Under the terms of the settlement, Version 8.12,
containing the Company's upgraded Version of 8.11 software in addition to the
Year 2000 patch, will be licensed without a license fee to Version 7 and 8 users
who participate in the settlement. In addition, the settlement also provides
that participating users who purchased a Version 9 upgrade will have the option
to obtain one of four optional modules from the Company without a license fee,
or to elect to take a share of a settlement cash fund. The settlement required
the Company to make a cash payment of $1.455 million. The settlement was
approved by the District Court of New Jersey on March 15, 1999. Pursuant to the
settlement, the Company was released from liability due to the Year 2000
non-compliance of Versions 7 and 8 by all users of Versions 7 and 8 except 29
users who "opted-out" of the class settlement.
 
     The Company has received notice of a lawsuit which was filed against the
Company and certain of its officers and directors, among other parties, on
October 23, 1998 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of
Florida. The lawsuit, styled George Ehlert, et al. vs. Michael A. Singer, et
al., purports to bring an action on behalf of the plaintiffs and others
similarly situated to recover damages for alleged violations of the federal
securities laws and Florida laws arising out of the Company's issuance of
allegedly materially false and misleading statements concerning its business
operations, including the development and sale of its principal product, during
the class period. An amended complaint was served on March 2, 1999. The class
period is alleged to be between April 23, 1998 and August 5, 1998. The lawsuit
seeks, among other things, compensatory damages in favor of the plaintiffs and
the other purported class members and reasonable costs and expenses. The Company
believes that this lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend
against it.
 
     The Company is from time to time involved in other routine litigation
incidental to the conduct of its business. The Company believes that no such
currently pending routine litigation to which it is party will have a material
adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

acquisitions, and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its Common
Stock for the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company's line of credit
agreement with NationsBank of Tampa dated January 14, 1998 includes restrictions
on the ability of the Company to pay dividends without the consent of the
lender.

ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
 
     The following selected historical financial data reflects the results of
MMC, MMR&D and the Acquired Companies through February 4, 1997, the date of
MMC's acquisition of the Founding Companies, after which the historical
financial statements reflect the results of MMC, MMR&D, the Acquired Companies,
and the Founding Companies other than MMR&D (the "Other Founding Companies").

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS
 
     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes thereto and "Item 6. Selected Financial Data"
appearing elsewhere in the report.
 
OVERVIEW
 
     This filing contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on current
plans and expectations and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual future activities and results of operations to be materially different
from those set forth in
 
                                       24
<PAGE>   27
 
the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual
results to differ include, among others, risks associated with acquisitions,
fluctuations in operating results because of acquisitions and variations in
stock prices, Year 2000 compliance issues, changes in government regulations,
competition, risks of operations, and growth of the newly acquired businesses.
Medical Manager Corporation's management is optimistic about the Company's
long-term prospects, however, in considering or evaluating the growth outlook of
the Company, it is important to read in conjunction with the following
discussion the Risk Factors identified in "Item 1. Business" of this document.
 
     The Company is a leading provider of comprehensive physician management
systems to independent physicians, physician groups, MSOs, IPAs, PPM's, managed
care organizations, and other providers of health care services in the United
States. The Company's revenue is derived primarily from the licensing of its
core product, The Medical Manager practice management software, the furnishing
of value-added services and the sale of hardware. The Company's primary focus is
on the sale and support of The Medical Manager software and services, while
hardware is sold primarily in response to customer demand. Since the development
of The Medical Manager system in 1982, the Company's installed base has grown to
over 24,000 client sites, making it the most widely installed physician practice
management software in the United States.
 
     The Company derives revenue from systems sales, software licensing and
maintenance and other services. Systems sales include sales of The Medical
Manager physician practice management system to new customers, sales of The
Medical Manager system upgrades and add-ons to existing customers, and sales of
The Medical Manager software licenses to independent dealers. Systems sales to
new customers include software licensing, hardware, installation, training, 90
days of software warranty, and varying periods of hardware maintenance,
depending on the warranty of the manufacturer. System upgrades and add-ons
include software licensing, peripheral hardware, installation, and training.
Software license sales to independent dealers include software serializations
and other services included in independent dealer agreements. Cost of system
sales reflects primarily the cost of The Medical Manager software, associated
hardware, operating systems, salaries, related benefits, as well as travel and
allocations of other overhead costs.
 
     Maintenance and other revenue includes software and hardware maintenance
contracts, additional training, programming, and sales of additional associated
products and services such as forms, electronic data interchange (EDI) services,
and other products and services not included in system sales. Software
maintenance represents revenue derived from maintenance agreements, providing
customers with updates and enhancements developed by the Company, and access to
the Company's telephone support centers. Hardware maintenance represents revenue
derived from maintenance agreements for repairs and preventative maintenance to
the hardware. Both hardware and software maintenance are optional to the
customer for smaller installations and required for MSO and larger
installations. EDI services revenue includes revenues derived from transaction
fees, access fees, and rebates associated with the MMNS initiative. Cost of
maintenance contracts revenue reflects primarily salaries and related benefits,
travel, and allocations of other overhead costs, as well as costs of services
and goods related to the delivery of the MMNS products.
 
     Revenue from software license is recognized upon sale and shipment. For the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, revenue from the sale of systems was
recognized when the system was installed and when the related client training
was completed, as established in Statement of Position 91-1, Software Revenue
Recognition. Beginning January 1, 1998, revenue from the sale of systems is
recognized in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition ("SOP 97-2"). SOP 97-2 requires the total contract revenue to be
allocated to the various elements of the contract based upon objective evidence
of the fair values of such elements and allows for only the allocated revenue to
be recognized upon completion of those elements. The effect of the adoption of
SOP 97-2 was not significant to the Company's results of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1998. Amounts billed in advance of recognized revenue are
deferred. Revenue from support and maintenance contracts is recognized as the
services are performed ratably over the contract period, which typically does
not exceed one year. Revenue from other services are recognized as they are
provided. Certain expenses are allocated between the cost of sales for systems
and maintenance and other based upon management's estimates.
 
                                       25
<PAGE>   28
 
     Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of marketing
and advertising, salaries and related benefits, professional fees,
administrative costs and allocations of other overhead costs based on
management's estimates.
 
     Research and development expenses represent salaries, related benefits
expenses, and allocations of other overhead costs associated with research and
development activities. Software development costs are included in research and
development and are expensed as incurred. Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 86 requires the capitalization of certain software development
costs once technological feasibility is established. The capitalized cost is
then amortized over the estimated product life. The period between achieving
technological feasibility and the general availability of such software is short
and software development costs qualifying for capitalization are insignificant.
 
     As a professional sales and value-added services organization, the Company
responds to the product opportunities and service demands from its clients.
Accordingly, the Company has limited control over the timing and circumstances
under which its products and services are provided. Therefore, the Company can
experience volatility in its operating results from quarter to quarter and year
to year. The operating results for any quarter or year are not necessarily
indicative of the results for any future periods.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
     The financial information referenced below includes MMC, MMR&D and the
Acquired Companies through February 4, 1997, the date of MMC's merger with the
Founding Companies, after which the financial information referenced below
reflects the results of MMC, MMR&D, the Acquired Companies, and the Other
Founding Companies. The results of the Purchased Companies are reflected
subsequent to their respective acquisition dates.
 
SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
     In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS 131. The segment information below
presents the Company's three reportable segments -- (1) Research & Development,
(2) Sales & Marketing and (3) Dealer Network, which represents the Company-owned
dealers.
 
     The Company is organized primarily on the basis of the production,
distribution and service processes broken into nine production or distribution
units. Six of the distribution and service units have been aggregated into the
"Dealer Network" segment. These units derive their revenue from the sale and
service of The Medical Manager software. The "Sales & Marketing" unit consists
of a single distribution and service unit and derives its revenue from the sale,
licensing and distribution of The Medical Manager software to the Dealer Network
segment and the independent dealer network. Two of the production units have
been aggregated to form the "Research & Development" segment. These units derive
their revenue primarily from license royalties fees for The Medical Manager
software and other software packages.
 
     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
"Management Discussion and Analysis: Overview." Segment data includes
intersegment revenues. Revenues and net income reported in the Research &
Development segment and the Sales & Marketing segment are derived primarily from
intersegment sales. The Dealer Network segment purchases software and licenses
from the Sales & Marketing segment, which recognizes these sales as revenue. The
Research & Development segment then collects royalties from the Sales &
Marketing segment as it's primary source of revenues. Sales to the Dealer
Network segment by the Sales & Marketing segment are made at the same wholesale
price sold to independent dealers. Royalties to the Research & Development
segment are based on royalty agreements with Sales & Marketing. The Company
evaluates the performance of all three of its segments based on revenues and net
income, and additionally, it evaluates the Dealer Network on operating margins.

</TABLE>
 
Dealer Network
 
     The increase in systems revenue between the years ended December 31, 1998
and December 31, 1997 was due to the growth of the Dealer Network as a whole,
the inclusion of the Purchased Companies from their respective acquisition date,
and the inclusion of three of the Other Founding Companies beginning on February
5, 1997.
 
     An increase in systems sales volume from upgrades, combined with an
increase in the size of individual systems projects, were contributing factors
in the Dealer Network's systems revenue growth in 1998. The Dealer Network has
experienced an increase in upgrade sales in the current year due to the release
of Version 9 of The Medical Manager software in November of 1997. The previous
version of The Medical Manager software, Version 8, was released in 1993. The
Dealer Network continues to penetrate its base of smaller physician groups and
sole practitioners. The Dealer Network also continues to secure more MSO and
large IPA contracts, which have a greater average revenue per sale. The
Company's Enterprise Business Group ("EBG"), which specifically targets
national/regional clients, recently obtained contracts from which $6.8 million
of revenue was recognized in the year ended December 31, 1998. By comparison,
$3.5 million of revenue was recognized on EBG sales in the year ended December
31, 1997.
 
     In addition, the Purchased Companies were reflected in the financial
statements subsequent to their respective date of acquisition. The largest of
the Purchased Companies, Companion Technologies of Florida, Inc. and Companion
Technologies of Texas, were acquired on December 31, 1997, thus contributing no
results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997. Together they
contributed $7.0 million of system revenues for the year ended December 31,
1998. The remaining 1997 Purchased Companies occurred prior to December 31,
1997, thus their results of operations are reflected in the year ended December
31, 1997, subsequent to their respective acquisition date. In addition, the 1998
Purchased Companies are reflected solely in 1998, subsequent to their respective
acquisition date. Finally, three of the Other Founding Companies are included
beginning February 5, 1997.
 
     The increase in systems revenue between the years ended December 31, 1997
and December 31, 1996 was primarily due to the inclusion of three of the Other
Founding Companies beginning on February 5, 1997. For the year ended December
31, 1997, the three Other Founding Companies and the Acquired Companies
contributed approximately $9.0 million, net of EBG sales, to the increase over
1996. The Dealer Network recognized $3.5 million in EBG systems sales in the
year ended December 31, 1997, while no EBG sales were recognized in 1996 since
the EBG group was not formed until 1997. Finally, 12 of the Purchased Companies
 
                                       27
<PAGE>   30
 
were completed in 1997 and their revenues were included subsequent to their
respective acquisition date. There were no material purchases completed during
the year ended 1996.
 
     The increase in maintenance and other revenue in the year ended December
31, 1998 over the year ended December 31, 1997 was also due to the growth of the
Dealer Network as a whole, the inclusion of the Purchased Companies subsequent
to their respective acquisition date and the inclusion of three of the Other
Founding Companies beginning on February 5, 1997. For the year ended December
31, 1998, Companion Technologies of Florida, Inc. and Companion Technologies of
Texas, both purchased on December 31, 1997, together contributed $4.1 million of
maintenance and other revenue. Also, the three Other Founding Companies are
included beginning February 5, 1997.
 
     The increase in maintenance and other revenue between the year ended
December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 was primarily due to the inclusion of
three of the Other Founding Companies beginning on February 5, 1997. For the
year ended December 31, 1997, the three Other Founding Companies and the
Acquired Companies contributed approximately $11.1 million to the increase over
1996. Finally, 12 of the Purchased Companies were completed in 1997 and their
revenues were included subsequent to their respective acquisition date. There
were no purchases completed during the year ended 1996.
 
     The Company obtains a maintenance contract for a minimum of one year with
most new systems installed. Therefore, a portion of the Company's maintenance
and other revenue is recognized later than billed. Unearned maintenance and
other revenue as of December 31, 1998 was $4.6 million and will be recognized in
future quarters. The balance of unearned revenues on the accompanying balance
sheets represents customer deposits on systems implementation projects. Revenue
on these projects will be recognized in future periods as the implementation of
the system is completed.
 
     The shift towards a greater percentage of systems sales during the year
ended December 31, 1998 was primarily due to the significant increase in EBG
sales and Version 9 upgrade sales. A large percentage of EBG sales revenues are
from the software and installation of the hardware and software rather than from
the maintenance of the software. The shift towards maintenance and other revenue
as a percentage of sales evident between 1997 and 1996 was primarily due the
inclusion of the Other Founding Companies beginning February 5, 1997. Three of
the Other Founding Companies, included in the Dealer Network segment, have a
greater percentage of sales from maintenance and other than do the Research &
Development and Sales & Marketing segments which obtain the majority of their
revenues from the licensing of The Medical Manager software, which is included
in systems revenue.
 
Sales & Marketing
 
     The increase in revenues for the Sales & Marketing segment from 1997 to
1998 was primarily the result of an overall increase in the volume of licenses
sold to the independent dealers and to the Dealer Network segment. The volume of
licenses has increased primarily due to the growth of the Dealer Network as a
whole and the release of Version 9 of The Medical Manager software in November
of 1997. The Sales & Marketing segment was acquired by MMC on February 4, 1997.
Accordingly, revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998 include a full twelve
months of results while revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 include
revenues only from February 5, 1997. No revenues are reported for the Sales &
Marketing segment for 1996 since their acquisition occurred on February 4, 1997.
 
Research & Development
 
     The increase in systems revenues for the Research & Development segment
from 1997 to 1998 was primarily a function of an overall increase in sales of
licenses through the Sales & Marketing segment, and to a lesser extent, an
increase in the pricing structure of intersegment revenues. The increase in
maintenance and other revenue for the Research & Development segment was
primarily the result of an increase in EDI revenues of $0.8 million from 1997 to
1998. The increase in systems revenues for the Research & Development segment
from 1996 to 1997 was primarily the result of an overall increase in sales of
licenses through the Sales & Marketing segment. Maintenance and other revenues
in 1997 increased over 1996 due to the Research & Development segment
recognizing approximately $1.5 million in revenue related to the completion of
project-oriented national interface and national EDI agreements which did not
exist in the year ended December 31, 1996.

</TABLE>
 
COSTS OF REVENUES
 
Dealer Network
 
     The increase in systems cost of revenue for the year ended December 31,
1998 was due to the growth of systems revenue from the Dealer Network as a
whole, including EBG sales, and the inclusion of the Purchased Companies after
their respective acquisition dates. The largest of the Purchased Companies,
Companion Technologies of Florida, Inc. and Companion Technologies of Texas,
were acquired on December 31, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1998,
Companion Technologies of Florida, Inc. and Companion Technologies of Texas
together contributed $5.5 million of system cost of revenue. The growth in
maintenance cost of revenue in 1998 was primarily due to the inclusion of the
Purchased Companies subsequent to their respective acquisition date. Companion
Technologies of Florida, Inc. and Companion Technologies of Texas contributed
$2.1 million of maintenance and other cost of revenue during the year ended
December 31, 1998.
 
     The increase in systems cost of revenue between the years of 1997 and 1996
was primarily due to the inclusion of three of the Other Founding Companies
beginning on February 5, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the three
Other Founding Companies and the Acquired Companies contributed approximately
$6.2 million to the increase of system cost of revenue. The increase in
maintenance and other cost of revenue was also primarily due to the inclusion of
three of the Other Founding Companies. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the
three Other Founding Companies and the Acquired Companies contributed
approximately $9.6 million to the increase in maintenance and other costs of
revenue.
 
     For the year ended December 31, 1998, systems gross profit percentage
declined due to the inclusion of Companion Technologies of Florida, Inc. and
Companion Technologies of Texas for 1998 which had a lower gross profit
percentage on systems sales than the Dealer Network as a whole. Systems gross
profit increased from 1996 to 1997 primarily due to gained efficiencies in the
Acquired Companies and the inclusion of EBG sales, which carry a greater gross
profit margin, in 1997. Maintenance and other gross profit percentage increased
in the year ended December 31, 1998 due to the allocation of costs to a larger
basis of revenue. Also contributing to the increase in maintenance and other
gross profit percentage was the inclusion of Companion Technologies of Florida,
Inc. and Companion Technologies of Texas in the year ended December 31, 1998,
both providing a maintenance and other gross profit percentage at a rate greater
than the Dealer Network contributed in the year ended December 31, 1997.
 
     Systems gross profit percentage decreased for the Company as a whole as a
result of changes in the sales mix of the Company. The Company has grown
primarily from sales to end-users, which produce less gross profit percentage
than revenues from licensing. Maintenance and other gross profit percentage
declined between the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 due to the inclusion
of the Other Founding Companies,
 
                                       29
<PAGE>   32
 
which maintained a lower gross profit percentage on maintenance and other sales
than did the Research & Development segment.
 
Sales & Marketing
 
     The increase in the Sales & Marketing's cost of systems revenue and cost of
maintenance and other cost of revenue from 1997 to 1998 was primarily the result
of a corresponding increase in systems sales and maintenance and other revenues.
The systems gross profit margin and the maintenance and other gross profit
margin remained relatively consistent between 1997 and 1998. No cost of systems
revenues or of maintenance and other revenues are reported for the Sales &
Marketing segment for 1996 since their acquisition occurred on February 4, 1997.
 
Research & Development
 
     The increase in the Research & Development segment's systems costs of
revenues from 1997 to 1998 and from 1996 to 1997 was the result of a
corresponding increase in systems revenues. The systems gross profit percentage
for the Research & Development segment remained relatively consistent from year
to year. The increase in the Research & Development segment's maintenance and
other costs of revenues from 1997 to 1998 and from 1996 to 1997 was primarily
the result of a corresponding increase in maintenance and other revenues,
coupled with an increase in the initial start-up costs of the segment's EDI
initiative. These start-up costs caused the maintenance and other gross profit
margin to decrease slightly over the two years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997.
 
OPERATING EXPENSES
 
     For the year ended December 31, 1998, the increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was attributable to the growth of the Company as a
whole, the inclusion of the Other Founding Companies, and the inclusion of the
Purchased Companies from their respective date of acquisition. While each
segment's selling, general and administrative expenses increased during 1998,
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased.
For the Company as a whole, selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of sales decreased to 25.7% in 1998 from 28.8% in 1997 due to the
Company benefitting from certain efficiencies, including the consolidation of
various operations and office space.
 
     The Year 2000 litigation expenses represent a one-time charge for the
settlement of six of the eight lawsuits brought against the Company during 1998
alleging Year 2000 issues with previous versions of The Medical Manager
software. The settlement created a settlement class of all purchasers of Version
7 and 8 and upgrades to Version 9 of The Medical Manager software, and released
the Company from Year 2000 claims arising out of the sales of these version of
the Company's product. Under the terms of the settlement, Version 8.12,
containing the Company's upgraded Version of 8.11 software in addition to the
Year 2000 patch, will be licensed without a license fee to Version 7 and 8 users
who participate in the settlement. In addition, the settlement also provides
that participating users who purchased a Version 9 upgrade will have the option
to obtain one of four optional modules from the Company without a license fee,
or to elect to take a share of a settlement cash fund. The settlement required
the company to make a cash payment of $1.455 million. The Year 2000 expense
represents this $1.455 million cash settlement plus expenses related to legal
fees and estimated costs of installing the patch product for various customers.
 
     The increase in research and development expenses of $1.3 million in the
year ended December 31, 1998 and $.5 million in the year ended December 31, 1997
resulted from investments in new research and development projects focusing on
(i) graphical user interface and relational database technologies for use in
future versions of The Medical Manager software; (ii) significant enhancements
in the development of the MSO Enterprise Manager modules; (iii) enhancements of
an electronic medical records module; (iv) EDI modules for focusing on
pharmaceutical formularies and laboratories; and (v) new web-based products.
 
     Depreciation and amortization increased in the year ended December 31, 1998
and in the year ended December 31, 1997 from increased amortization of goodwill
from the Purchased Companies. To a lesser
 
                                       30
<PAGE>   33
 
degree, depreciation expense also increased due to additional capital equipment
required for operational initiatives and general infrastructure improvements.
 
NON-OPERATING ITEMS
 
     Interest income consisted primarily of interest earned from the investment
of the proceeds from the IPO and the Company's SPO of Common Stock, which
occurred in April 1998. Interest expense is from notes issued and assumed in
connection with the mergers and the acquisitions of the Acquired Companies and
the Purchased Companies.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     The following table sets forth certain selected statements of cash flow
information for the periods presented (in millions):
 
<TABLE>

                                                               YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
                                                              -------------------------

                                                              =====    ======    =====
</TABLE>
 
     Substantially all of the cash provided by operating activities for 1998
resulted from net income of $15.8 million and an increase in accounts payable
and accrued expenses of $2.9 million, reduced by an increase in accounts
receivable of $10.2 million. The increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses primarily is the result of the accrual of the unpaid Year 2000
litigation expenses of approximately $2.1 million. The increase in accounts
receivable is primarily due to the significant growth in the volume of sales,
coupled with the fact that there has been a shift to a greater percentage of
sales to end-users, which have an extended period of collection as compared to
sales to dealers.
 
     Investing activities included the purchase of approximately $3.9 million of
property and equipment and the payment of approximately $4.1 million for certain
of the Purchased Companies acquired during 1998.
 
     Cash flows from financing activities results primarily from proceeds of
approximately $42.3 million from the Company's SPO in April 1998. In addition,
there were proceeds of approximately $2.0 million from the issuance of stock in
connection with the exercise of the Company's stock options granted to
employees. Finally, there were payments of approximately $5.3 million on the
debt assumed in connection with the Acquired Companies and the Purchased
Companies.
 
     For the year ended December 31, 1997, substantially all of the net cash
generated by operating activities resulted from net income of $9.7 million,
reduced by the increase in accounts receivable of $5.9 million, the decrease of
accounts payable of $1.9 million, and the decrease of customer deposits and
deferred revenue of $1.1 million. The increase in accounts receivable is
primarily due to the significant growth in the volume of sales, coupled with the
fact that there has been a shift to a greater percentage of sales to end-users,
which have an extended period of collection as compared to sales to dealers. The
decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses includes $1.4 million in
accounts payable of the Other Founding Companies as well as a general reduction
in payable days outstanding for the Acquired Companies and Purchased Companies.
The customer deposits and deferred maintenance revenue decrease of $1.1 million
stems primarily from the mergers and acquisitions in the year ended December 31,
1997. The Purchased Companies and Acquired Companies, on the date acquired, had
customer deposits and deferred maintenance balances of $2.5 million greater than
at December 31, 1997, relating primarily to the timing of revenue recognition.
In addition, MMR&D had increased customer deposits of $0.4 million at December
31, 1996 over December 31, 1997, also the result of timing issues.
 
     Investing activities included the purchase of $1.3 million of fixed assets
in the ordinary course of business and amounts paid for the Other Founding
Companies and the Purchased Companies of $13.2 million.
 
                                       31
<PAGE>   34
 
     Cash flows from financing activities includes cash flows from the IPO,
payments of debt acquired from the Founding Companies as well as the Acquired
and Purchased Companies, and payments of dividends by MMR&D in 1997 prior to the
IPO. On February 4, 1997, the Company completed the IPO of 6,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $58.4 million.
Approximately $46.9 million of the net proceeds were used to pay the cash
portion of the purchase price for the Founding Companies, including $35.0
million paid to MMR&D. Payments on notes payable include the payment, in full,
of the $5.7 million of the assumed debt of the Acquired and Purchased Companies.
In addition, $2.0 million was paid on debt issued in connection with the
purchase of one of the Purchased Companies. Lastly, cash dividends paid by MMR&D
and the Acquired Companies prior to the IPO and their respective purchase dates
total $3.1 million.
 
     For the year ended 1996, the Company generated net income of $5.2 million.
Combined with the adjustments to reconcile net income to cash and an increase in
accounts payable and accrued expenses, operating activities added $7.8 million
to cash flows. Accounts receivable increased $.7 million as a result of the
revenue increase from 1995 to 1996. Customer deposits and deferred maintenance
liabilities increased $1.7 million from 1995 to 1996 as a result of timing of
jobs in progress at December 31, 1996 for the Acquired Companies. Also, MMR&D
had customer deposits of $0.4 million greater at December 31, 1996 than at
December 31, 1995 as a result of timing issues. Investing activities reflect the
substantial completion of the facilities built by MMR&D in the prior years.
Financing activities include dividends paid by MMR&D and other Acquired
Companies to their stockholders.
 
     On January 14, 1998, the Company entered into a $10.0 million line of
credit agreement with NationsBank of Tampa. The line of credit matures on May
31, 1999. The line of credit bears interest at Prime or LIBOR, at the election
of the borrower, plus an applicable margin, as defined in the agreement. This
debt instrument is due on demand. The agreement contains customary events of
default and a number of customary covenants including certain financial ratios
and restrictions on dividends. No amounts were outstanding on this line of
credit as of December 31, 1998.
 
     The Company's cash and cash equivalents equaled $49.6 million at December
31, 1998. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid investments with maturity dates of three months or less when
purchased to be cash equivalents. These cash equivalents are predominately in
U.S. dollar domestic tax free municipal instruments.
 
     The Company believes the net proceeds from the sale of Common Stock in the
SPO in April 1998, together with existing cash and cash equivalents and future
funds generated from operations will provide adequate cash to fund its
anticipated cash needs at least through the next twelve months. The Company's
cash and cash equivalents are expected to be used to repay acquisition-related
indebtedness, for possible future acquisitions and for working capital and other
general corporate purposes. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are also
managed to be available for strategic investment opportunities or other
potential cash needs that may arise in the pursuit of the Company's long-term
strategies.
 
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
 
     The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in
existing computer systems as the year 2000 approaches. The Year 2000 issue
relates to whether computer systems will properly recognize and process
information relating to dates in and after the year 2000. These systems could
fail or produce erroneous results if they cannot adequately process dates beyond
the year 1999 and are not corrected. Significant uncertainty exists in the
software industry concerning the potential consequences that may result from the
failure of software to adequately address the Year 2000 issue.
 
     NON-PROPRIETARY (INTERNAL) SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE
 
     The Year 2000 issue creates risk for the Company from unforeseen problems
in its own computer systems and from third parties with which the Company deals
nationwide. The Company has undertaken a program, headed by a four-person Year
2000 Compliance Team, to determine that its systems will operate smoothly as the
year 2000 approaches. This process began with an inventory of the systems vital
to the Company's
                                       32
<PAGE>   35
 
operations to identify those that may be affected by the Year 2000 issue. In
addition, third party vendors and business partners which the Company relies
upon have been asked to confirm that their systems will be Year 2000 compliant.
All critical systems have been assessed and a prioritized implementation
schedule has been defined for upgrading those systems which are not currently
Year 2000 compliant. The critical systems recognized by the Year 2000 Compliance
Team included financial and accounting systems, human resource systems, customer
support call management systems, telecommunications systems, commercial general
and administrative software used internally, hardware systems, and other
databases including enrollment and serialization databases.
 
     FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS.  In the second quarter of 1998, the
Company purchased a Year 2000 compliant version of its financial and accounting
software. All subsidiaries of the Company have been using the Year 2000
compliant version of the accounting system since that time. The cost of the
upgrade of the accounting systems was insignificant and, in accordance with
Company policy, was capitalized to be amortized over its appropriate life.
 
     HUMAN RESOURCE SYSTEMS.  For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company
used an outside vendor to process payroll. The Company made a decision to
internalize the payroll function by January 1, 1999. The Company's Human
Resources Department purchased a software package which is certified as Year
2000 compliant by the author, created the database for use with the software and
tested the software during the fourth quarter of 1998. The Company's payroll
went live on the new software on January 1, 1999. The cost of the new Human
Resources system and database was insignificant and, in accordance with Company
policy, was capitalized to be amortized over its appropriate life.
 
     CUSTOMER SUPPORT CALL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS.  The Company uses a software
package to assist in recording, assigning and clearing of customer hardware and
support calls. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company purchased a new
software package, which is Year 2000 compliant, to perform these functions. The
software was tested concurrently with the Company's previous support call
management software for one month and is now in use by four subsidiaries of the
Company. The Company intends to have all subsidiaries on the new call management
system by the end of 1999. The Company's previous support software was earmarked
for replacement without regard for the Year 2000 issue and thus the cost of the
system is not considered a part of the Company's costs of Year 2000 compliance.
 
     TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS.  Telecommunications systems of the Company
include not only voice communications, but significant data communications
systems such as e-mail and an internal network providing each subsidiary access
to servers located at the corporate offices. In October 1998, the Company
selected a single national vendor for all voice and data communications
throughout the Company. This vendor has provided a statement of their Year 2000
general plan which provides for a March 31, 1999 target completion date to be
completely Year 2000 compliant. The implementation of the new system is expected
to save the Company approximately $0.5 million over the next two years and thus,
the cost of the initial outlay for making the telecommunications systems Year
2000 compliant will be fully recovered.
 
     VARIOUS GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE SOFTWARE.  As a result of the Year 2000
Compliance Team's efforts, the Company has noted that a portion of the current
in-house personal computers are known to be non-Year 2000 compliant. Some
workstations also have software programs installed which are not Year 2000
compliant. The Company has defined a minimum standard Year 2000 compliant
workstation with standardized software. The target date to have all workstations
in line with the minimum standard is March 31, 1999. Approximately 98% of this
project has been completed. The costs of upgrading all remaining workstations is
estimated to be less than $0.3 million.
 
     OTHER DATABASES.  The Year 2000 Compliance Team has recognized two critical
databases used internally by the Company. The Network Services Client Enrollment
database is currently Year 2000 compliant. The Medical Manager Software
Serialization Database is stored in an internally written database which is not
Year 2000 compliant. The Company has scheduled an upgrade of this database to
Access 97, a completely Year 2000 compliant database package, for the third
quarter of 1999. The estimated costs of this upgrade will be the cost of
salaried employees which should not exceed $50,000 per quarter through the year
1999.
                                       33
<PAGE>   36
 
     THIRD PARTY RELATIONSHIPS.  The third party relationships identified as
critical to the Company's operations are computer hardware distributors and
shipping companies. As part of a standardization initiative which began in late
1997, the Company has partnered with three national distributors to supply all
hardware and third party software products sold to clients. All three companies
have provided documents stating that they are Year 2000 compliant. In addition,
all shipping companies used by the Company and other vendors have provided
documents stating their Year 2000 readiness.
 
     The Company intends to continue to monitor the Year 2000 compliance of its
internal software and hardware packages, telecommunications systems, and
vendors. In the event that any of the Company's systems, or any of the Company's
vendors' systems, do not meet the Year 2000 requirement by December 31, 1999,
the Company could experience difficulties, including but not limited to, in
processing sales and other financial information, customer support calls,
serializations of the Company's product, and orders of supplies from vendors.
This could have a materially adverse affect on the Company's financial position,
results of operations, or business. Although the Company expects its systems,
and its vendors' systems, to be Year 2000 compliant on or before December 31,
1999, it cannot predict the success of the Company's Year 2000 compliance
program. The Company does not anticipate problems with the Year 2000
preparedness of its internal hardware and software. If the Company experiences a
failure in its Year 2000 preparedness, the Company's contingency plan includes
the redeployment of experienced staff to address those Year 2000 compliance
issues.
 
     PROPRIETARY (EXTERNAL SOFTWARE)
 
     The Year 2000 issue also creates risk for the Company from problems that
may be experienced by customers of its software. While Version 9 of The Medical
Manager practice management system, which was commercially released in November
1997, is Year 2000 compliant, prior versions of the system are not. The Company
has encouraged users of pre-Version 9 versions of The Medical Manager software
to upgrade to Version 9 in order to become Year 2000 compliant. In August of
1998, the Company announced that it was developing and had begun in-house
testing of a patch that would allow its previous version, Version 8, first
released in November 1993, to handle the date change to the new century. This
patch, Version 8.12, is now available for general distribution to its
independent sales offices for installation for users of Versions 7 and 8.
However, there is no assurance that Versions 7 and 8, with or without the Year
2000 patch will not create additional issues for users of the software
including, but not limited to, additional costs for upgraded hardware,
additional costs for new operating systems and personnel training, additional
costs for conversion of Version 7 data, and the fact that Versions 7 and 8 do
not take into account current industry and regulatory requirements. Version 9
will remain the only enhanced and maintained version of the software.
 
     A class action lawsuit was brought against the Company alleging Year 2000
issues regarding The Medical Manager software in versions prior to Version 9.0.
Seven additional lawsuits were also brought against the Company, each purporting
to sue on behalf of those similarly situated and raising essentially the same
issues. In December 1998, the Company preliminarily entered into an agreement to
settle the class action lawsuit, as well as five of the seven other similar
cases. The settlement created a settlement class of all purchasers of Version 7
and 8 and certain upgrades to Version 9 of The Medical Manager software, and
released the Company from Year 2000 claims arising out of the sales of these
versions of the Company's product. Under the terms of the settlement, Version
8.12, containing the Company's upgraded Version of 8.11 software with the Year
2000 patch, will be licensed without a license fee to Version 7 and 8 users who
participate in the settlement. In addition, the settlement also provides that
participating users who purchased a Version 9 upgrade will have the option to
obtain one of four optional modules from the Company without a license fee, or
to elect to take a share of a settlement cash fund. The settlement required the
Company to make a cash payment of $1.455 million. The settlement was approved by
the District Court of New Jersey on March 15, 1999. Pursuant to the settlement,
the Company was released from liability due to the Year 2000 non-compliance of
Versions 7 and 8 by all users of Version 7 and 8 except 29 users who "opted-out"
of the class settlement.
 
     While the Company does not believe costs incurred by the Company to
distribute and install the Year 2000 patch will be material, there can be no
assurance that such costs will not have a material adverse effect

                                       34

on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Additionally,
there can be no assurance that the existence of the Year 2000 patch will not
delay or reduce the migration of users to Version 9 from earlier versions.
Further, if Version 9 or other customers experience significant difficulties as
a result of the Year 2000 issue, or if the Company encounters difficulties in
responding in a timely manner to customer requests to upgrade to Version 9,
there could be a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations,
financial condition or business.
 
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income". In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 130, effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15,
1997. The new standard requires that comprehensive income, which includes net
income as well as certain changes in assets and liabilities recorded in common
equity, be reported in the financial statements. The Company adopted SFAS No.
130 during the year ended December 31, 1998. For the years ended December 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996 there were no components of comprehensive income other than
net income.
 
     SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information".  In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS 131, which requires a
"management"approach of disclosing segment information. The management approach
designates the internal organization that is used by management for making
operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company's
reportable segments. SFAS 131 also requires disclosures about products and
services, geographic areas, and major customers. The adoption of SFAS 131 did
not affect results of operations or financial position but did affect the
disclosure of segment information.
 
     SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
Postretirement Benefits".  In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 132 which is effective for periods ending after December
15, 1998. The new standard revises employers' disclosures about pensions and
other postretirement benefits. For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, there was no impact on the Company's financial statements.
 
     SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Investments and Hedging
Activities".  SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The
Company does not currently maintain any derivative investments nor does it
conduct any hedging activities, therefore, SFAS 133 is not expected to impact
the Company.
 
ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
     The Company's cash and cash equivalents are predominantly in U.S. dollar
domestic tax free municipal instruments which are not significantly affected by
changes in interest rates.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Medical Manager Corporation
 
     In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index
appearing under item 14(a) (1) present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Medical Manager Corporation and its subsidiaries (the
"Company") at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations
and of their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In
addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index
appearing under Item 14(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related
consolidated financial statements. 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 of
these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

                          MEDICAL MANAGER CORPORATION
 
                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
     Medical Manager Corporation ("MMC") was founded on July 10, 1996 to bring
together the research and development, sales, marketing and support resources
for The Medical Manager(R) software, a leading physician practice management
system for independent physicians, physician groups, management service
organizations ("MSOs"), Physician Practice Management companies ("PPMs"),
independent practice associations ("IPAs"), managed care organizations and other
providers of health care services in the United States. On February 4, 1997, MMC
acquired in separate mergers (the "Mergers") simultaneously with the
consummation of the initial public offering ("IPO"), five companies: (i) Medical
Manager Research & Development, Inc. (formerly Personalized Programming, Inc.)
("MMR&D"), the owner and developer of The Medical Manager software; (ii) Medical
Manager Sales & Marketing, Inc. (formerly Systems Plus, Inc.) ("MMS&M"), the
long-time national distributor of the software; (iii) Medical Manager Southeast
(formerly National Medical Systems, Inc.) ("MMSE"), a national dealer located in
Tampa, Florida; (iv) Medical Manager Northeast (formerly RTI Business Systems,
Inc.) ("MMNE"), a large, regional dealership in Albany, New York; and (v)
Medical Manager Midwest, Inc. (formerly Systems Management, Inc.) ("MMMW"), a
large, regional dealership in South Bend, Indiana (collectively, the "Founding
Companies"), which became separate, wholly-owned subsidiaries of MMC. The
aggregate consideration paid by MMC for the Founding Companies was approximately
$46.9 million in cash and 11.7 million shares of MMC's common stock par value
$.01 per share (the "Common Stock") for an aggregate value of $175.7 million.
The acquisitions were accounted for as a combination of the Founding Companies
at historical cost for accounting purposes. MMR&D is identified as the acquirer
for financial statement presentation purposes and is presented on a combined
basis with MMC from July 10, 1996. MMC conducted no significant operations and
generated no revenue prior to the closing of the IPO.
 
     During the year ended December 31, 1997, MMC or its affiliates executed and
closed agreements to acquire 10 resellers (the "1997 Acquired Companies") of The
Medical Manager software. These acquisitions were accounted for using the
pooling of interests method of accounting. The aggregate consideration paid for
the 1997 Acquired Companies consisted of 1,644,836 shares of Common Stock.
 
     Also during the year ended December 31, 1997, MMC or its affiliates
executed and closed definitive agreements to acquire substantially all of the
assets or all of the outstanding equity securities of the following 12 resellers
(the "1997 Purchased Companies") of The Medical Manager software.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     Principles of Consolidation.  The accompanying financial statements have
been presented on a consolidated basis for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996. The consolidated financial statements include MMC and its wholly
owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and intercompany
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements
 
                                       43
<PAGE>   46
                          MEDICAL MANAGER CORPORATION
 
         NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
include MMC, MMR&D and the Acquired Companies through February 4, 1997, the date
of MMC's acquisition of the Founding Companies, after which the historical
financial statements reflect the results of MMC, MMR&D, the Acquired Companies,
and the other Founding Companies. The results of the Purchased Companies are
reflected subsequent to their respective acquisition date. The accompanying
financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to show the effect of the
acquisitions of the Acquired Companies as if they had occurred on January 1,
1996.
 
     Revenue Recognition.  Revenue from software licenses is recognized upon
sale and shipment. For the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, revenue from
the sale of systems was recognized when the system was installed and when the
related client training was completed, as established in Statement of Position
("SOP") 91-1, Software Revenue Recognition. Beginning January 1, 1998, revenue
from the sale of systems is recognized in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software
Revenue Recognition. SOP 97-2 requires the total contract revenue to be
allocated to the various elements of the contract based upon objective evidence
of the fair values of such elements and allows for only the allocated revenue to
be recognized upon completion of those elements. The effect of the adoption of
SOP 97-2 was not significant to the Company's results of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1998. Amounts billed in advance of recognized revenue are
deferred. Revenue from support and maintenance contracts is recognized as the
services are performed ratably over the contract period, which typically does
not exceed one year. Revenue from other services are recognized as they are
provided. Certain expenses are allocated between the cost of revenue for systems
and maintenance and other based upon revenue, which basis management believes to
be reasonable.
 
     Goodwill and Other Intangibles.  Goodwill and other intangibles consist of
covenants not to compete and goodwill arising from business acquisitions,
detailed as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>
 
     The covenants not to compete are being amortized over periods of two to
three years and the goodwill arising from business acquisitions is being
amortized over a 20 year period.
 
     Asset Impairment.  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of, requires that long-lived assets and certain
intangibles to be held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment. The
Company periodically assesses whether there has been a permanent impairment of
its long-lived assets, in accordance with SFAS No. 121. No write-down of assets
due to impairment was required in the years ended December 31, 1998 or 1997.
Approximately $500,000 of goodwill was recorded by one of the Acquired
Companies, prior to their acquisition by the Company, and was written off in the
year ended December 31, 1996.
 
     Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Additions and major renewals are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are
charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts, with the resulting gain or loss
included in income. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of leasehold
improvements is provided for over the shorter of the estimated service life of
the leased asset or the lease term using the straight-line method.

     Inventory.  Inventory primarily consists of peripheral computer equipment.
Inventory cost is accounted for on the first-in, first-out basis and reported at
the lower of cost or market.
 
     Research and Development.  Software development costs are included in
research and development and are expensed as incurred. SFAS No. 86, "Accounting
for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed,"
requires the capitalization of certain software development costs once
technological feasibility is established. The capitalized cost is then amortized
over the estimated product life. To date, the period between achieving
technological feasibility and the general availability of such software has been
short and software development costs qualifying for capitalization have been
insignificant.
 
     Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with maturity dates of three months or less when purchased to be
cash equivalents. These cash equivalents are predominantly in U.S. dollar
domestic tax free municipal instruments.
 
     Income Taxes.  The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of
accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are
recorded to reflect the tax consequences on future years differences between the
tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reported amounts at each
year end based on enacted laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in
which differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance
is provided against the future benefits of deferred tax assets if it is
determined that it is more likely than not that the future tax benefits
associated with the deferred tax asset will not be realized. See Note 11.
 
     Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during
the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates; however,
management does not believe these differences would have a material effect on
operating results.
 
     Concentration of Credit Risk.  The Company's financial instruments that are
exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash
equivalents and accounts receivable. With regard to accounts receivables, credit
risk is limited due to the wide variety of customers in the health care industry
and the geographic areas into which the Company's systems and services are sold.
With regards to cash, the Company places its funds with high credit quality
institutions. At times, such monies may be in excess of the FDIC or other
insurance limits, however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such
accounts.
 
     Non-cash Transactions.  Non-cash investing and financing activities during
the year ended December 31, 1998 included the purchase of approximately $2.3
million of assets of the 1998 Purchased Companies through the assumption of
liabilities and the issuance of Common Stock and the purchase of equipment
through the assumption of a lease obligation. Non-cash transactions during the
year ended December 31, 1997 included the purchase of approximately $23.7
million of assets of the other Founding Companies and the 1997 Purchased
Companies through the assumption of liabilities and the issuance of Common
Stock.
 
     Reclassifications.  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform with 1998 presentations. These reclassifications had no impact on net
income or stockholders' equity.
 
     Segment Reporting.  In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS 131, "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". SFAS 131 supersedes
SFAS 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise", replacing
the "industry segment" approach with the "management"approach. The management
approach designates the internal organization that is used by management for
making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source of the
Company's reportable segments. SFAS 131 also requires disclosures about products
and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The adoption of

         NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
FAS 131 did not affect results of operations or financial position but did
affect the disclosure of segment information. See Note 12.
 
     Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".  In
June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130,
effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 1997. The new standard
requires that comprehensive income, which includes net income as well as certain
changes in assets and liabilities recorded in common equity, be reported in the
financial statements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 during the year ended
December 31, 1998. For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 there
were no components of comprehensive income other than net income.
 
     Employee Benefits Disclosures. SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits".  In February 1998, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 132 which is effective for periods
ending after December 15, 1998. The new standard revises employers' disclosures
about pensions and other postretirement benefits. For the years ended December
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, there was no impact on the Company's financial
statements.
 
     SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Investments and Hedging
Activities".  SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The
Company does not maintain any derivative investments nor does it conduct any
hedging activities, therefore, SFAS 133 is not expected to impact the Company.

    The note is payable in 48 monthly installments, beginning September, 1994.
    Payment of this note is in dispute. The Company has not made payments
    according to its terms; accordingly, the Company may be considered to be in
    default. As a result of the potential default, the entire principal amount,
    plus accrued interest of $99,900, has been recorded as a current liability.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
     At December 31, 1998, the Company had two stock option plans as described
below:
 
AMENDED AND RESTATED 1996 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
 
     In September 1996, the Company adopted the 1996 Long-Term Incentive Plan,
amended on June 9, 1998 (the "Incentive Plan"), under which the Compensation
Committee has discretion to grant one or more of the following awards to
executive officers, key employees, consultants and other service providers: (i)
incentive stock options, (ii) non-qualified stock options, (iii) stock
appreciation rights, (iv) restricted or deferred stock, (v) dividend
equivalents, (vi) bonus shares and awards in lieu of the Company's obligations
to pay cash compensation, and (vii) other awards the value of which is based in
whole or in part upon the value of the Common Stock. Upon a change of control of
the Company (as defined in the Incentive Plan), certain conditions and
restrictions relating to an award with respect to the ability to exercise or
settle such award will be accelerated.
 
     The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be subject to
outstanding awards under the Incentive Plan may not exceed the greater of
2,000,000 shares or 12% of the aggregate number of shares of

705,108 options granted under the Incentive Plan were exercisable with a
weighted average exercise price of $12.68. No compensation expense related to
the options has been recorded as the options were granted at an exercise price
equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date
of grant.
 
     A total of 50,000 shares of restricted stock awards were granted under the
Incentive Plan on April 18, 1997. Compensation expense equal to the fair value
of the Common Stock on the date of grant ($8.375 per share) is being recognized
over a six year vesting period of these stock awards.

1996 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS' STOCK PLAN
 
     In September 1996, the Company adopted the 1996 Non-Employee Directors'
Stock Plan (the "Directors' Plan") which provides for the automatic grant to
each non-employee director an initial option to purchase 10,000 shares upon such
person's initial election as a director. In addition, the Directors' Plan
provides for an automatic annual grant to each non-employee director of an
option to purchase 5,000 shares at each annual meeting of stockholders;
provided, however, that a director will not be granted an annual option if he or
she was granted an initial option during the preceding three months, later
amended to sixty days. This plan also provides that each non-employee director
may elect to receive 2,000 stock options in each calendar year in lieu of an
annual cash fee and other cash payments for attending board meetings. A total of
250,000 shares are reserved for issuance under the Directors' Plan. The exercise
price of options granted under the Directors' Plan may be no less than the fair
market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, and accordingly, no
compensation expense has been recorded in connection with the stock options
granted.
 
     Information regarding the Directors' Plan is summarized below:

     All options under the Directors' Plan vest one year after the date of grant
and expire 10 years after the date of grant. The exercise price of the options
outstanding under this plan range from $8.875 to $29.00. As of December 31,
1998, 51,000 options granted under the Directors' Plan were exercisable with a

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARD NO. 123, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION"
 
     In October of 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
("FAS 123") which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995. As permitted by FAS 123, the Company has elected to account for its stock
based plans under APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees".

     The weighted average fair value of the options granted during the year
ended December 31, 1998 was $13.12. If the Company had elected to recognize
compensation expense for stock options based on the fair value at grant date,
consistent with the method prescribed in FAS 123, net income and earnings per
share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts shown below (in
thousands, except per share data):

</TABLE>
 
     There were no options outstanding as of December 31, 1996, thus pro forma
information is not provided for the year ended December 31, 1996.
 
     The pro forma amounts were determined using the Black-Scholes Valuation
Model with the following key assumptions: (i) a 52% volatility factor initially
based on the Company's average trading price since the IPO, as well as the
average trading stock price of comparable companies over the previous five
years; (ii) no dividend yield; (iii) a discount rate equal to the rate available
on U.S. Treasury Strip (zero-coupon) bond on the grant date, and (iv) an average
expected option life of four years for directors' options and five years for
employees' options.

9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
 
     On July 1, 1997, the Company began a qualified 401(k) savings plan (the
"Plan") covering all employees meeting certain eligibility requirements. The
Plan permits each participant to reduce his or her taxable compensation basis by
up to 15% and have the amount of such reduction contributed to the Plan. During
the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company made a matching contribution of
15% of the first 6% of the compensation deferred by each participant. Effective
January 1, 1999, the Plan was amended so that the Company makes a contribution
of 25% of the first 6% of the compensation deferred by each participant. Salary
reduction contributions are immediately vested in full; matching contributions
vest 20% per year over a five year period. During the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, the Company made contributions of $181,000 and $69,000
respectively.

     Upon the consummation of the IPO and the acquisition of the Acquired
Companies, MMR&D and certain of the Acquired Companies which were S-Corporations
(collectively, the "S-Corporations") terminated their S-Corporation status.
Accordingly, current and deferred income taxes reflecting the tax effects of
temporary differences between the Company's financial statement tax bases of
certain assets and liabilities became assets and liabilities of the Company.
Accordingly, the above provisions for 1998 and 1997 income taxes include a
$548,000 and $650,000, respectively, nonrecurring benefit resulting from the
termination of the S-Corporation election and the corresponding required
adoption of SFAS 109.
 
     The significant components of deferred tax assets (liabilities) as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

12. SEGMENT REPORTING
 
     In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS 131. The segment information below
presents the Company's three reportable segments -- (1) Research & Development,
(2) Sales & Marketing and (3) Dealer Network, which represents the Company-owned
dealers.
 
     The Company is organized primarily on the basis of the production,
distribution and service processes broken into nine production or distribution
units. Six of the distribution and service units have been aggregated into the
"Dealer Network" segment. These units derive their revenue from the sale and
service of The Medical Manager software. The "Sales & Marketing" unit consists
of a single distribution and service unit and derives its revenue from the sale,
licensing and distribution of The Medical Manager software to the Dealer Network
segment and the independent dealer network. Two of the production units have
been aggregated to form the "Research & Development" segment. These units derive
their revenue primarily from license royalties fees for The Medical Manager
software and other software packages.
 
     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
footnote 2. Segment data includes intersegment revenues. Revenues and net income
reported in the Research & Development segment and the Sales & Marketing segment
are derived primarily from intersegment sales. The Dealer Network segment
purchases software and licenses from the Sales & Marketing segment, which
recognizes these sales as revenue. The Research & Development segment then
collects royalties from the Sales & Marketing segment as it's primary source of
revenues. Sales to the Dealer Network segment by the Sales & Marketing segment
are made at the same wholesale price sold to independent dealers. Royalties to
the Research & Development segment are based on royalty agreements with Sales &
Marketing. The Company evaluates the performance of all three of its segments
based on revenues and net income, and additionally, it evaluates the Dealer
Network on operating margins.
 
     The table below presents information about reported segments and the
reconciliation of total segment information to the consolidated information as
reflected on the accompanying financial statements for the years ending December
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 (in thousands):

13. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
     A class action lawsuit was brought against the Company alleging Year 2000
issues regarding The Medical Manager software in versions prior to Version 9.0.
Seven additional lawsuits were also brought against the Company, each purporting
to sue on behalf of those similarly situated and raising essentially the same
issues. In December 1998, the Company preliminarily entered into an agreement to
settle the class action lawsuit, as well as five of the seven other similar
cases. The settlement created a settlement class of all purchasers of Version 7
and 8 and upgrades to Version 9 of The Medical Manager software, and released
the Company from Year 2000 claims arising out of the sales of these version of
the Company's product. Under the terms of the settlement, Version 8.12,
containing the Company's upgraded Version of 8.11 software in addition to the
Year 2000 patch, will be licensed without a license fee to Version 7 and 8 users
who participate in the settlement. In addition, the settlement also provides
that participating users who purchased a Version 9 upgrade will have the option
to obtain one of four optional modules from the Company without a license fee,
or to elect to take a share of a settlement cash fund. The settlement required
the Company to make a cash payment of $1.455 million. See Note 14.
 
     The Company has received notice of a lawsuit which was filed against the
Company and certain of its officers and directors, among other parties, on
October 23, 1998 in the United States District Court for the Middle District of
Florida. The lawsuit, styled George Ehlert, et al. vs. Michael A. Singer, et
al., purports to bring an action on behalf of the plaintiffs and others
similarly situated to recover damages for alleged violations of the federal
securities laws and Florida laws arising out of the Company's issuance of
allegedly materially false and misleading statements concerning its business
operations, including the development and sale of its principal product, during
the class period. An amended complaint was served on March 2, 1999. The class
period is alleged to be between April 23, 1998 and August 5, 1998. The lawsuit
seeks, among other things, compensatory damages in favor of the plaintiffs and
the other purported class members and reasonable

intends to vigorously defend against it.
 
     The Company is from time to time involved in other routine litigation
incidental to the conduct of its business. The Company believes that no such
currently pending routine litigation to which it is party will have a material
adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
