             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
   -------------------------------

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial statements and include all adjustments (consisting only
     of normal recurring adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for
     a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash
     flows for those periods.  Results for the interim periods are not
     necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.  These
     consolidated financial statements and any notes thereto, should be read in
     conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year
     ended December 31, 1997 included in the Walker Interactive Systems, Inc.
     Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS

     Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform with
     the current presentation format.


2. ACQUISITION OF REVERE, INC
   --------------------------

     On December 2, 1997, the Company acquired all the outstanding share capital
     of Revere, Inc. ("Revere") in exchange for $7.7 million of the Company's
     common stock (634,022 shares) and $0.6 million for various transaction
     related costs and fees.  An additional earnout of up to $2.0 million is
     payable based upon the achievement of certain 1998 performance targets.
     Associated with the transaction's closing total purchase price of $8.3
     million, the Company allocated $4.1 million to goodwill, $4.6 million was
     allocated to in-process research and development and the remaining amounts
     allocated primarily to working capital. The amount of the purchase price
     allocated to in-process research and development was charged to the
     Company's operations, because technological feasibility had not been
     established and no alternative future uses existed at the acquisition date.
     The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction.  The goodwill
     will be ratably charged to operations over six years.  The results of
     operations of Revere are included in the 1998 consolidated statements of
     operations.


3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
   ------------------

     The Company calculates basic earnings per share ("EPS") and diluted EPS in
     accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
     128, "Earnings per Share".  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income
     (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for that
     period.  Diluted EPS takes into account the effect of dilutive instruments,
     such as stock options, and uses the average share price for the period in
     determining the number of incremental shares that are to be added to the
     weighted average number of shares outstanding.


     The following is a summary of the calculation of the number of shares used
     in calculating basic and diluted EPS (in thousands):

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
$8.3 million, the Company allocated $4.1 million to goodwill, $4.6 million was
allocated to in-process research and development and the remaining amounts
allocated primarily to working capital. The amount of the purchase price
allocated to in-process research and development was charged to the Company's
operations, because technological feasibility had not been established and no
alternative future uses existed at the acquisition date. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase transaction. The goodwill will be ratably charged to
operations over six years. The results of operations of Revere are included in
the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1998. Therefore, period to period comparisons may not
meaningfully depict trends or changes in operating results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

The following results of operations for three and six months ended June 30, 1998
include the operations of Revere, unless otherwise specified.

REVENUES.  The Company recorded total revenues of $25.4 million and $49.1
million during the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively.  The
increase in total revenues of $9.2 million and $15.8 million over the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, is primarily due to increases in
worldwide license and consulting revenue.

License revenues increased $2.1 million or 61 percent and $4.8 million or 66
percent to $5.6 million and $12.0 million for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1998, respectively.  The increase in license revenues is partly
attributable to license revenues generated from Revere operations during the
first half of 1998.  The remaining increase in license revenues is primarily
attributable to increases in license revenues generated by the Company's Horizon
and Aptos product lines.  The Company believes that the increase in Horizon and
Aptos license revenues during the first half of 1998 is attributable to
increased sales and marketing efforts, enhanced product offerings and increased
demand for the Company's financial application solutions from large and mid-
sized organizations.

Maintenance revenues increased 12 percent to $7.6 million for the 3 months ended
June 30, 1998 and increased 12 percent to $15.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998.  The increase is primarily attributable to maintenance revenue
from Revere operations.  The remaining increase in maintenance revenues is
primarily attributable to growth in license sales during 1998.

Consulting revenues were $12.3 million for the second quarter of 1998 and $21.8
million for the first six months of 1998.  During 1997 consulting revenues were
$6.0 million and $12.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
respectively.  Consulting revenues are generated from new and existing customers
for services related to training, implementation, customization, migration,
enhancement, Year 2000 compliance engagements, best practice consulting
engagements and other special projects.  The Company generates a majority of its
consulting revenues from implementation related projects.  The $6.3 million and
$9.4 million increases in consulting revenues during the second quarter and
first half of 1998, respectively, are partly attributable to consulting revenues
generated from Revere operations.  The remaining increases in 1998 consulting
revenues are primarily due to revenues generated from Year 2000 consulting
engagements, which were minimal during the first half of 1997.  Additional
increases in consulting revenues were generated from implementation related
projects associated with the Company's Tamaris, Aptos and Horizon product lines.

COSTS OF LICENSES, MAINTENANCE AND CONSULTING.  Costs of licenses, maintenance
and consulting represented 41 percent of total revenues for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to 40 percent of total revenues for the same
periods in 1997.  The increase is primarily attributable to increased license
revenues and a greater proportion of those license revenues generated from the
Company's products which utilize technology licensed from third parties.
Excluding the operations of Revere, the costs of licenses, maintenance and
consulting represented 41 percent and 42 percent of total revenues for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to 40 percent of
total revenues for the same periods in 1997.  The increase in 1998 is partially
attributable to lower profit margins in North America associated with a fixed
fee consulting engagement offset by relatively higher profit margins recognized
on Year 2000 compliance engagements.  Further contributing to the increase are
higher fees associated with the use of third party technology and increases in
consulting headcount due to the increased volume of consulting engagements
associated with the increases in license revenue.

AMORTIZATION OF CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE. Amortization of capitalized software
represented 4 percent of total revenues for the three and six months ended June
30, 1998 compared to 8 percent and 7 percent of total revenues for the same
periods in 1997, respectively.  The decrease in 1998 is attributable to the
completion of amortization for several products at the beginning of the Q4
partially offset by amortization from recent product releases.

SALES AND MARKETING.  In absolute dollars, sales and marketing expenses
increased 45 percent to $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998
and increased 46 percent to $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998.   The increase in absolute dollars is primarily attributable to Revere
operations, higher commissions and travel expenses associated with the increase
in license revenues and increased costs associated with marketing promotions.

As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses were 22 percent
and 24 percent for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, sales and marketing expenses as
a percentage of total revenues was 23 percent.  The increase in sales and
marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenues during the second quarter
of 1998 is primarily attributable to increased costs associated with marketing
promotions.  Expenses associated with commissions and travel expenses were not a
significant contributing factor to the increase in sales and marketing expenses
as a percent of total revenue during the second quarter due to increases in
total revenues during the same timeframe.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.  Product development related expenses, excluding
amortization of capitalized software, are detailed as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE> 

The increase in 1998 gross product development expenses is primarily due to
expenses generated by Revere operations.  Further contributing to the increase
in gross expenses are the Company's continued efforts to broaden its existing
product offerings by further developing acquired technologies, incorporating
third party technologies in new products and enhancing existing products.  As a
percentage of gross product development expenses, additions to capitalized
software were 36 percent and 45 percent for the three months ended June 30, 1998
and 1997, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
additions to capitalized software represented 37 percent and 44 percent of gross
development expenses, respectively.  The decrease in capitalized software in
1998 is partially attributable to the use of product development resources for
post-release work after a major product release in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Resources were additionally utilized on several other projects which were not
capitalizable as technological feasibility had not been reached on those
projects.  Historical additions to capitalized software, in absolute dollars and
as a percentage of gross product development costs, are not a reliable indicator
of additions to capitalized software in absolute dollars and as a percentage of
gross product development costs that will be recognized in the future.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses were $3.2
million and $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, general and
administrative expenses were $5.9 million and $4.4 million, respectively.  The
increase is primarily due to expenses from Revere operations.  Further
contributing to the increase in 1998 general and administrative expenses were
increased facility costs associated with rental increases and additional
headcount.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE.  Income tax expense is recorded each quarter based on the
Company's estimated effective income tax rate for the year.  The Company
estimates that the 1998 effective income tax rate will be 36 percent.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

Cash flows from financing activities used cash of $1.8 million in 1998 and
provided cash of $0.7 million in 1997.  The increase in cash used during 1998 is
primarily a result of $1.4 million used to repay an outstanding line of credit
which was assumed during the acquisition of Revere in December 1997.  The
Company further used $1.6 million during the first six months of 1998 for the
repurchase of its common stock, offset by $1.2 million provided by employee
stock purchase plan issuances and exercises of stock options.

The Company has a line of credit in the amount of $3.0 million, secured by
marketable securities.  The line of credit expires on August 31, 1999.  The
Company has never borrowed against this line of credit.  

As of June 30, 1998, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included cash,
cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments aggregating $21.2 million.
The following sentence is a forward looking statement.  The Company believes
that its principal sources of liquidity, together with funds expected to be
generated from operations, will satisfy the Company's currently anticipated
working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next
twelve months.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
--------------------

The Company has completed an assessment of its Year 2000 issues.  The following
statement is a forward-looking statement.  The Company has determined that its
Year 2000 issues would not have a material effect on the Company's business,
results of operations or financial condition.

ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS
-----------------------

The Company operates in a rapidly changing environment that involves numerous
risks and uncertainties which could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.  The following discussion details some, but not all, of these risks and
uncertainties.

FLUCTUATION IN OPERATING RESULTS.  The Company's operating results fluctuate as
a result of a variety of  factors including: (i) the execution of new license
agreements; (ii) the shipment of software products; (iii) customer acceptance
criteria for services performed; (iv) completion of milestone or other
significant development requirements pursuant to the Company's license
agreements; (v) the financial terms of consulting agreements and the inclusion
of fixed as opposed to variable pricing; (vi) third-party royalty payments for
licensed software; (vii) the demand for the Company's products and services;
(viii) changes in the Company's product mix; (ix) the development and launch of
new products, and the life cycles of the Company's existing products; (x)
research and development expenditures required to update and expand the
Company's product portfolio and related third-party consulting costs; (xi) sales
and marketing expenses generally related to the entry into new markets with new
or existing products and maintenance of market share in existing markets; (xii)
acquisitions and the integration and development of acquired entities or
products; (xiii) competitive conditions in the industry and (xiv) general
economic conditions.  As a result, the Company believes that period-to-period
comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should
not be relied upon as indications of future performance.

The Company's quarterly operating results are particularly dependent on the
number of license agreement bookings executed in each quarter.  The amount of
quarterly bookings has varied substantially from quarter to quarter due to a
variety of reasons including: (i) a high proportion of license agreements are
negotiated during the latter part of each quarter which may not be completed
before the quarter end; (ii) the sales cycles for some of the Company's products
are relatively long due to the Company's focus on "enterprise solutions" as
opposed to individual products, which adds complexity to the customer's
selection, negotiation and approval process; (iii) the amount related to each
booking may vary significantly due to the need for different solutions for
different customers; (iv) procurement procedures may vary from customer to
customer, which may affect the timing of the bookings; (v) the period for a
customer to complete product evaluations and to complete any subsequent purchase
approval may be delayed due to resource limitations; and (vi) economic,
political and industrial conditions can adversely affect business opportunities
without notice.  In addition, bookings that are executed during a particular
quarter may not be 

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
recognized as revenue during such quarter because such bookings may not have met
the Company's revenue recognition criteria. No assurance can be given that the
Company will be able to effect new bookings in accordance with historical
results or management's expectations, and the inability of the Company to do so
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

While the Company typically sells its software under a standard license
agreement, license agreements associated with large enterprise solutions often
require the negotiation of terms and conditions that differ substantially from
the Company's standard license agreement terms.  The negotiation of these
agreements may extend the sales cycle.  In certain circumstances, the Company
may not obtain terms and conditions that permit the recognition of revenue upon
shipment of the licensed product or under the percentage of completion method of
contract accounting rules.  Accordingly, revenue may not be recognized despite
the shipment of a product because specified milestones have not been met or
because applicable services have not been completed.

The Company in the past has and in the future expects to enter into fixed price
consulting agreements, particularly in response to increased competition in the
industry.  The Company has recognized lower profit margins on certain fixed-
price service agreements when compared to variable agreements. No assurance can
be given that the Company will be able to conclude fixed-price agreements on
terms that will allow the Company to retain its historical operating margins.

The Company has historically generated a majority of its consulting revenue from
pre- and post-implementation services.  Recently, the Company has provided
services which include, but are not limited to, Year 2000 conversion
engagements, best practice solution engagements and other hardware and software
solutions.  The Company intends to continue its pursuit of consulting
engagements for which the Company believes it is qualified. There can be no
assurances that these engagements will result in profit margins equal to or
greater than those engagements that are specific to a customer's product
implementation. Furthermore, there can be no assurances that consulting revenue
generated from non-implementation related projects will continue in the future.

Employee and facility related expenditures comprise a significant portion of the
Company's operating costs and expenses, and are therefore relatively fixed over
the short term.  In addition, the Company's expense levels are based, in
significant part, on the Company's forecasted revenue.  If revenue levels fall
below expectations, net income is likely to be adversely affected.  There can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain or to continue its
current level of profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Any
of the foregoing factors could cause the Company's future operating results to
fall below the expectations of public securities market analysts, which could
have an adverse effect on the trading price of the Company's common stock.  See
"Volatility of Stock Price."

RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTY TECHNOLOGY.  The Company generates revenue from
internally developed software products, some of which utilize technology
licensed from third parties.  The Company expects to continue utilizing third
party technology and may enter into agreements with additional business
partners.  If sales of software utilizing third party technology increase
disproportionately, gross margins may be below historical levels due to third
party royalty obligations.  There can be no assurances that the third parties
will renew existing agreements with the Company or will not require financial
conditions which are unfavorable to the Company.  Furthermore, there can be no
assurances that existing third party agreements will not be terminated.

INDUSTRY.  Certain software companies, including the Company, have experienced
significant economic downturns as a result of technological shifts and
competitive pressures.  These downturns are characterized by decreased product
demand, price erosion, work slowdowns and layoffs.  The Company's operations
may, in the future, experience substantial fluctuations from period to period as
a consequence of such industry patterns and general economic and political
conditions which could affect the timing of orders from customers.  There can be
no assurance that such factors will not have a materially adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results or financial condition.

INTERNATIONAL.  The Company plans to increase its presence in international
markets including, but not limited to, marketing the Tamaris and Aptos product
lines in additional countries.  Risks associated with such pursuits include, but
are not limited to, the following:  changing market demands, economic and
political conditions in foreign markets, foreign exchange fluctuations, longer
collections cycles, difficulty in managing a geographically dispersed
organization, and changes in international tax laws.  The downturn in the Asia
Pacific business climate 

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
will have an adverse effect on some market opportunities. Operating results are
likely to be adversely affected if the Company's expansion into international
markets is not successful.

COMPETITION.  The business and financial applications software market for large
and complex organizations is intensely competitive.  The Company's principal
competitors with Tamaris solutions are Dun & Bradstreet Software Services, Inc.
(mainframe applications now owned by Geac Computer Corporation Limited), SAP AG,
Oracle and PeopleSoft, Inc.  With Aptos solutions, the Company faces competition
from The BAAN Company N.V., Oracle Corporation, Lawson Software, Inc., Platinum
Software, Inc., Systems Union Group Ltd and Agresso AS.  With the Horizon suite
of products, the Company faces competition from Hyperion Software, Longview and
Oracle Corporation.  With the IMMPOWER suite of products, the Company faces
competition from Datastream Systems, Inc., Indus International, Inc., Marcam
Solutions, Inc., Mincom Pty Ltd., Product Software & Development, Inc. and SAP
AG.

The Company also competes to a lesser extent with other independent software
application vendors. Many of the Company's current and potential competitors
have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and sales resources
than the Company.  Some of these competitors also offer business application
products not offered by the Company, primarily in the areas of human resources
and manufacturing.  However, Walker remains one of the few companies committed
to providing and enhancing applications for the mainframe environment.  Many of
the competitors listed above compete with Walker by offering UNIX-based
applications.

The Company encounters competition from a broader range of firms in the market
for professional services.  These competitors include the consulting divisions
of the major accounting firms which possess greater resources than the Company
and small independent firms which compete primarily on the basis of price of
services provided.

The principal competitive factors in the market for business and financial
applications software and services include product functionality, flexibility,
portability, integration, reliability, performance, product availability, speed
of implementation, quality of customer support and user documentation, vendor
reputation, experience, financial stability, cost effectiveness and price.  The
Company believes that it competes favorably with respect to these factors.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to compete
successfully in the future.

RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE.  The software industry is characterized by rapid
technological change.  The pace of change has accelerated due to advances in
mainframe and client/server technology and the growth in internet, intranet and
extranet utilization.  The Company expects to evaluate potential opportunities
and may invest in those which are compatible with the Company's strategic
direction.  However, there can be no assurance that any such investments will be
profitable.  Furthermore, the Company's products are designed primarily for use
with certain mainframe and client/server systems.  The introduction of products
embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can
render existing products obsolete.  Accordingly, the Company's future success
depends in part upon its ability to continue to enhance its current products and
to develop and introduce new products that respond to evolving customer
requirements and keep pace with technological development and emerging industry
standards, such as new operating systems, hardware platforms, interfaces and
third party applications software. There can be no assurances that the Company
will be successful in developing and marketing product enhancements or new
products that respond to technological change, changes in customer requirements
or emerging industry standards, that the Company will not experience
difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development,
introduction and marketing of such products and enhancements or that any new
products or enhancements that it may introduce will achieve market acceptance.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.  The Company's continued success is dependent on its
continued ability to introduce, develop and market new and enhanced versions of
its software products, although there can be no assurance that such ability can
be maintained.  The Company expects product development expenses to grow in
future periods.  However, there can be no assurance that revenues will be
sufficient to support the future product development which is required for the
Company to be competitive.  Although the Company may be able to release new
products in addition to enhancements to existing products, there can be no
assurance that the Company's new or upgraded products will be accepted, will not
be delayed or canceled, or will not contain errors or "bugs" that could affect
the performance of the product or cause damage to users' data.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.  The Company regards its products as proprietary.  Through
its license agreements with customers and its internal security systems,
confidentiality procedures and employee agreements, the Company has 

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
taken steps to maintain the trade secrecy of its products. However, there can be
no assurances that misappropriation will not occur. In addition, the laws of
some countries do not protect the Company's proprietary rights to the same
extent as do the laws of the United States. There can be no assurance that the
confidentiality of any proprietary information will provide any meaningful
competitive advantage. The Company has no patents relating to its products. The
Company believes that, because of the rapid pace of technological change in the
computer software industry, that trade secrets are less significant than factors
such as the knowledge, ability and experience of the Company's employees,
frequent product enhancements and the timeliness and quality of support
services. There can be no assurance that the Company's current efforts to retain
its products as proprietary will be adequate.

Although the Company believes that its products do not infringe upon the
proprietary rights of third parties, there can be no assurance that third
parties will not assert infringement claims against the Company in the future
with respect to current or future products or that any such assertions may not
require the Company to enter into royalty arrangements or result in costly
litigation.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE.  The Company believes that its commercial application
software products generally offered for license by the Company to end-user
customers are Year 2000 compliant.  Furthermore, the Company has completed an
assessment of its Year 2000 issues.  The Company has determined that its Year
2000 issues would not have a material effect on the Company's business, results
of operations or financial condition.  However, failure of the Company's
commercial application software products or internal business technology to
operate properly in the Year 2000 may have an adverse impact on business
operations or require the Company to incur unanticipated expenses to remedy any
problems.

PRODUCT LIABILITY.  The Company's license agreements with its customers contain
provisions designed to limit the Company's exposure to potential product
liability claims. It is possible, however, that the limitation of liability
provisions contained in such license agreements may not be enforced as a result
of international, federal, state and local laws or ordinances or unfavorable
judicial decisions. The license and support of the Company's software for use in
mission critical applications creates the risk of product liability claims
against the Company. Damage liability or injunctive relief resulting from such a
claim could cause a materially adverse impact on the Company's business,
operating results and financial condition.

EMPLOYEES.  The Company believes that its continued success will depend in large
part upon its ability to attract, train and retain highly-skilled technical,
sales and marketing and managerial personnel.  The Company continues to hire a
significant number of sales, marketing, services and technical personnel.
Because of the high level of demand, competition for such personnel is intense
and the Company from time to time experiences difficulty in locating candidates
with appropriate qualifications or within desired geographic locations.  Revenue
growth is dependent on the Company's ability to attract, train, retain and
productively manage such personnel.

EXPANSION OF FACILITIES.  Recently, commercial building vacancy rates have
significantly dropped in San Francisco, California, where the Company has its
headquarters.  The Company's San Francisco office lease expires in 2007.
However, the Company may experience difficulty obtaining additional space if the
Company's space requirements in San Francisco significantly exceed the quantity
of space the Company currently has under lease.  In addition, the increased
demand for office space has caused commercial rental rates to increase
substantially.  Failure to either obtain space, or obtain it on reasonably
attractive commercial terms, may inhibit the Company's ability to grow or
otherwise adversely affect the Company's operations and financial results.

ACQUISITION RELATED RISKS.  The Company has acquired and may continue to acquire
complimentary businesses, products or technology.  The process of integrating an
acquired company's business into the Company's operations may result in
unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and may require significant
management attention that would otherwise be available for the ongoing
development of the Company's business.  There can be no assurance that any
anticipated benefits of an acquisition will be realized.  Future acquisitions by
the Company could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities,
the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities and amortization related to
goodwill and other intangible assets, which could materially affect the
Company's operating results and financial condition.  Acquisitions involve
numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of operations,
technologies and products of the acquired company, risks associated with
entering markets in which the Company has no or limited direct prior experience
and the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.  High technology companies, including the Company,
frequently experience volatility in their common stock prices.  Factors such as
quarterly fluctuations in results of operations, announcements of technological
innovations by the Company or its competitors or the introduction of new
products by the Company or its competitors and macroeconomic conditions in the
computer hardware and software industries generally may have a significant
adverse impact on the market price of the Company's stock.  If revenues or
earnings in any quarter fail to meet the expectations of the investment
community, there could be an immediate impact on the Company's stock price.  In
addition, the Company has issued shares and stock options which if sold directly
or exercised and sold on the open market in large concentrations, could cause
the Company's stock price to decline in the short term.  Recent tax legislation
which lowered tax rates on capital gains could potentially result in increased
sales of all U.S. equity securities including the Company's common stock.  Such
sales, if material, could negatively impact the stock price.  Furthermore, the
stock market has from time to time experienced extreme price and volume
fluctuations which have particularly affected the market price for many high
technology companies, in some cases unrelated to the operating performance of
those companies.  These broad market fluctuations may materially adversely
affect the market price of the stock of the Company.
