ITEM 1. BUSINESS

  SS&C Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a Connecticut
corporation in March 1986 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1996. The
Company commenced the initial public offering of its common stock, $.01 par
value per share (the "Common Stock"), on May 31, 1996, pursuant to which the
Company sold 3,026,250 shares of Common Stock and selling stockholders sold an
aggregate of 723,750 shares of Common Stock.

  The Company is a leading provider of client/server-based financial software
solutions, and related consulting services, designed to improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of investment management, actuarial and analytical functions
across a broad range of financial institutions. The Company has developed a
family of software products that provides a full range of mission-critical
information management and analysis, accounting, reporting and compliance
tools to help high-level investment and actuarial professionals make informed,

increasingly complex and fast-moving financial markets. The Company's products
are focused on improving the effectiveness of decision-making through open,
fully integrated access to meaningful data provided on a timely basis. The

RECENT EVENTS

  On March 20, 1998, the Company completed its acquisition (the "Quantra
Acquisition") of substantially all of the assets of Quantra Corporation
("Quantra") pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 20,
1998, among the Company, Quantra and AEGON USA Realty Advisors, Inc., the
controlling stockholder of Quantra. The purchase price for the Quantra
Acquisition consisted of 546,019 shares of the Company's Common Stock,

Quantra. The Company used authorized but previously unissued shares of Common
Stock and cash from the proceeds from the Company's initial public offering in

management systems with its major offices in Chicago and Atlanta. Quantra's
products include Mortgage Loan Management System ("MLMS"), PRO-JECT for
Windows, SKYLINE, Real Estate Management System ("REMS") and Portfolio

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT, INVESTMENT ACCOUNTING

 CAMRA 2000

  The Company's complete asset management, reporting and accounting ("CAMRA
2000") software supports the integrated management of asset portfolios by
investment professionals operating across a wide range of institutional
investment entities. CAMRA 2000 is a 32-bit, multi-user, integrated solution
tailored to support the entire portfolio management function and includes
features to execute, account for and report on all typical securities
transactions.

  CAMRA 2000 is designed to account for all the activity of the investment
operation and continually update through the processing of day-to-day
securities transactions. The product accounts for both transactions and
holdings and stores the results of most accounting calculations in the
product's open, relational database, thereby providing user-friendly, flexible
data access as well as supporting data warehousing. In addition to storing
transactions and holdings data on securities, cash, and foreign exchange
forward contracts, CAMRA 2000 also stores data on custodians, brokers and
broker budgets, analytical information, general ledger entries, alternative
accounting basis, tax information and other aspects of the investment
operation. To facilitate further automation of such extensive stored data, the
Company has developed interfaces to many custodian banks, data providers and
analytic data services.

                                       3
<PAGE>

Other CAMRA 2000 features include the following:

  Comprehensive Accounting and Reporting Capabilities. CAMRA 2000 supports
four distinct yet interrelated accounting bases--GAAP, statutory, management
and tax--and has the flexibility to provide multiple alternative accrual
methods, multiple sales methods, average cost or tax lot accounting and
multiple amortization methods.

  Support of Trading Transactions. CAMRA 2000 supports a wide variety of
investment and accounting transactions, ranging from buy and sell to short and
cover, swap, put, call, redemption, return of capital, settlement, account
transfer and portfolio transfer. All transactions are recorded on a real-time
basis, permitting immediate enterprise-wide access to the most current
portfolio information by authorized users.

  Multi-Currency Processing. CAMRA 2000 automatically calculates transaction
and translation values in accordance with applicable accounting and industry
conventions, supports calculation of market, accounting and foreign exchange
gains and losses, and provides a full foreign exchange trading capability with
forward pricing, while taking into account such critical parameters as global
calendars (with weekends and holidays defined by countries), multiple-based
currencies and required rounding techniques.

  Regulatory Compliance. CAMRA 2000 includes standard reports to meet the
annual and quarterly regulatory reporting requirements of insurance
organizations as promulgated by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners ("NAIC"). CAMRA 2000 also supports regulatory reporting
requirements of various other regulatory agencies such as the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
("OCC").

  CAMRA 2000 is designed to facilitate seamless integration with its software
modules. Modules to CAMRA 2000 are available for performance measurement using
computations consistent with the standards of the Association for Investment
Management and Research ("AIMR"), portfolio compliance, net asset value
computations for mutual funds, optimization of trading in mortgage-backed
securities on a to be announced ("TBA") basis, client fee billing, portfolio
rebalancing and interfacing with various products of Bloomberg Trade Book,
Open Bloomberg and other analytic data services.

 Total Return

  Total Return is a portfolio management and partnership accounting system
oriented toward the hedge fund and family wealth markets. It is a multi-
currency system which, like CAMRA 2000, is designed to provide securities
accounting and reporting for businesses with high transaction volumes.
Partnership accounting, including the generation of tax forms 1065 and K-1,
are provided through Total Return's TR1065 module. Total Return also
incorporates a comprehensive general ledger. Performance measurement using
computations consistent with AIMR standards is also provided through a module
to the system. Other modules to Total Return provide for tax reporting and
trust reporting. Total Return also has interfaces with brokers, pricing
services, data services and front-end trading systems.

 Mabel

  Mabel is a portfolio management system from the Company's Netherlands-based
Mabel Systems ("Mabel") subsidiary that is used by clients throughout Europe
and the Caribbean. Mabel's functionality includes accounting and reporting,
performance measurement consistent with AIMR standards, net asset value
calculations for mutual funds and support for stock brokering and custodial
services. The Mabel system is designed to automatically map data to and from
messages in the S.W.I.F.T. ("Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial
Communications") format.

TRADE ORDER MANAGEMENT

 Antares (in Beta release)

  Antares is in Beta release as of December 31, 1997 and is expected to be
generally released during the third quarter of 1998. Antares is a
comprehensive trading and trade modeling system designed to integrate trade
modeling with trade order management. Modeling scenarios can be customized and
stored, including trader-

                                       4
<PAGE>

defined formulas, in a familiar spreadsheet environment. Antares is designed
to transfer data seamlessly from modeling scenarios to trade orders. In
Antares, trades can be managed in the multiple steps of trade ordering,
filling the order and approving the trade or recorded in a single step.
Further, Antares can allocate trades across accounts at any step in the
process.

  Trade blotters in Antares can be customized depending on client, product
type or trader. Full position accounting is provided across all types of
securities. Antares also accepts real-time pricing updates and can display
real-time positions and profit and loss statements. Portfolio rebalancing can
be set to occur automatically. As Antares uses an open relational database,
customized reporting is supported through its own report writing facilities or
through other third-party reporting tools. Antares also includes functionality
to automate the processing of options, futures and forward currency contracts.

  For some financial institutions, the Antares trading system may serve as a
comprehensive, stand-alone investment management system. For financial
institutions with more accounting and historical reporting requirements,
Antares may serve as the front-end trading system connected to CAMRA 2000,
Total Return or other portfolio management investment accounting systems.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

 PTS 2000

  PTS 2000 provides an economic model of insurance assets and liabilities,
generating option-adjusted cash flows to reflect the complex sets of options
and covenants frequently encountered in insurance contracts or comparable
agreements. PTS 2000 includes the following features:

  Large-Scale Corporate Simulation Models. The Company and certain significant
clients have implemented a number of complex models of whole-company financial
performance. Unlike simpler systems, PTS 2000 maintains an internal
architecture patterned after the structure of insurance companies themselves,
making full-scale corporate models practical. Such corporate models are used
to facilitate capital structure decisions, revealing and measuring overall
financial performance and guiding overall risk management practice.

  Option Pricing. The PTS 2000 option pricing model provides option-adjusted
valuation of assets and liabilities under a consistent conceptual framework.
The PTS 2000 option pricing model explicitly considers interest-sensitive
embedded options, providing valid interest rate risk analysis using price
behavior curves that graphically depict asset/liability performance over
shifts in the interest rate term structure.

  Macro Pricing. The Company's proprietary Macro Pricing algorithm recognizes
the complex relationships within contemporary financial intermediaries and
provides a matrix of possible product and production quota options in
conformity with the profit expectations of the client.

DYNAMIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

 Finesse 2000

  The Company's Finesse 2000 system is a Dynamic Financial Analysis ("DFA")
tool designed and developed in cooperation with Ernst & Young LLP, to model
operating results, gauge the effects of reinsurance and validate pricing,
value business transactions such as mergers and acquisitions, measure the
impact of new products, predict cash flows, analyze the impact of investment
decisions and improve strategic planning. Finesse 2000 generates iterative,
computer-simulated scenarios in response to events that may have an impact on
a client's business. The results of this iterative process are stored in
Finesse 2000's "virtual general ledger," which mimics the financial accounting
that would occur if these scenarios were to occur. All simulated results are
recorded and can be easily viewed on Finesse 2000's "graphical palette," an
on-line facility that visually depicts the likely occurrence of one or more
specific events.

LOAN MANAGEMENT

 FILMS 2000

  The Company's fully integrated loan management system ("FILMS 2000") enables
mortgage professionals to process, analyze and report on a comprehensive basis
information regarding their mortgage loan portfolios. Like CAMRA 2000, FILMS
2000 is a multi-user, integrated solution operating on a client/server
platform, which eliminates the need for separate, independent systems within
the mortgage loan area. FILMS 2000, which can be integrated with data stored
in the Company's CAMRA 2000 and PTS 2000 products, provides the following
features:

  Application and Commitment Processing. FILMS 2000 supports the processing of
commercial and residential mortgage loans, providing on-line access to
critical evaluative information, including credit history, appraisals, LTV
ratio, broker information, duration, convexity, average life and discounted
cash flow valuation, permitting loan recommendations to be generated quickly,
consistently and easily.

  Accounting and Servicing Support. FILMS 2000 supports accurate and
consistent servicing of loans, including general ledger entries at the sub-
portfolio level, with a direct interface to the corporate general ledger.
FILMS 2000 also maintains appraisals and operating statements at the proper
level to support loan and portfolio management.

  Comprehensive Reports. FILMS 2000 generates and supports a wide range of
accounting, servicing and management reports. All reports can be viewed on-
line, downloaded or printed.

support activities are supplemented by a comprehensive training program,
including introductory training courses for new users and dedicated seminars
for investment professionals to familiarize them with the capabilities of the
Company's systems.

CLIENTS

  The Company's clients include a wide range of financial institutions and
other organizations that require a full range of information management and
analysis, accounting, actuarial, reporting and compliance software on a timely
and flexible basis, and include asset managers, insurance companies, banks,
mutual funds, corporate treasuries, pension funds and government agencies. The
Company provides products and services to more than 500 organizations
worldwide.

SALES AND MARKETING

  The Company believes that a direct sales organization is essential to the
successful implementation of its business strategy given the complexity and
importance of the operations and information the Company's products are
designed to manage and the extensive regulatory and reporting requirements of
its clients. The Company's dedicated direct sales and support staff, which is
supplemented by extensive ongoing product and sales training, is organized by
product area and situated in the Company's various sales offices.

  The Company's marketing personnel are responsible for evaluating and
developing market opportunities and providing sales support. The Company's
marketing activities include generation of client leads, targeted direct mail
campaigns, seminars, advertising, trade shows, conferences and public
relations efforts. The marketing department also supports the sales force with
appropriate documentation or electronic materials for use during the sales
process.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT; RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT; BACKLOG

  The Company believes that it must introduce new products and features into
the market on a regular basis to maintain its competitive advantage. To meet
these goals, the Company uses multidisciplinary teams of highly trained
finance, accounting, mathematical, actuarial, software and investment
personnel, and has invested heavily in developing a comprehensive product
analysis to meet rigorous requirements for product functionality and quality
across its target markets.

  The Company's research and development engineers work closely with the
Company's marketing and support personnel to assure that product evolution
reflects developments in the marketplace and trends in client requirements.
Historically, the Company has issued a major functional release of its core
products during the third quarter of each fiscal year, including functional
enhancements, as well as an annual fourth quarter release to reflect evolving
regulatory changes in time to meet year-end reporting requirements of clients.

  Although the Company has historically met its scheduled dates for product
releases and enhancements, software development is characterized by
unanticipated delays, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to maintain future scheduled release dates as planned. Furthermore, there
can be no assurance that the Company's new product releases and product
enhancements will adequately address the needs of the

                                       7
<PAGE>

marketplace or will not contain "bugs" which could cause delays in product
introduction or shipments or, if discovered in the future, require
modification of the Company's products.

  As of December 31, 1997, the Company's research and development staff
consisted of 100 employees. The Company's total expenses for research and
development, excluding purchased in-process research and development, for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 were $7.7 million, $8.4 million
and $10.2 million, respectively.

  Backlog is not a significant factor in the Company's business.

COMPETITION

  The market for financial services software is competitive, rapidly evolving
and highly sensitive to new product introductions and marketing efforts by
industry participants. The market is also highly fragmented and served by
numerous firms, many of which serve only their respective local markets or
specific customer types, and much of the Company's competition stems from
information systems or timesharing services developed and serviced internally
by the MIS departments of financial services firms. The Company currently
faces direct competition in various segments of the financial services
industry from Thomson Financial, SunGard Data Systems, Inc., Princeton
Financial Systems (a subsidiary of State Street Bank and Trust Company), DST
Systems, Inc. and Advent Software, Inc. The Company believes that none of its
competitors currently compete against it in all of the Company's target
industry segments, although there can be no assurance that one or more may not
compete against the Company in the future in additional industry segments.
Many of the Company's current and potential future competitors have
significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources, generate
higher revenues and have greater name recognition than does the Company. There
can be no assurance that the Company's current or potential competitors will
not develop products comparable or superior to those developed by the Company
or adapt more quickly than the Company to new technologies, evolving industry
trends or changing client requirements. It is also possible that alliances
among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share.
Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins
and loss of market share, any of which would materially adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

  The Company believes the principal competitive factors in its industry
include product performance and functionality, ease of use, scalability,
ability to integrate external data sources and processing systems, product and
company reputation, client service and support and price. Although the Company
believes that it currently competes effectively with respect to such factors,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain its
competitive position against current and potential competitors.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

  The Company primarily relies on a combination of copyright, trademark and
trade secret laws and license agreements to establish and protect proprietary
rights of its products. The source code for the Company's products is
protected as both a trade secret and an unpublished copyrighted work. In
addition, the Company generally enters into confidentiality and/or license
agreements with its employees, distributors, clients and potential clients and
limits access to, and distribution of, its software, documentation and other
proprietary information. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a
third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use the Company's products or
technology without authorization or to develop similar technology
independently. In addition, effective copyright and trade protection may be
unavailable or limited in certain foreign countries. In January 1996, the
Company licensed the use of certain of its source code to General American
Life Insurance Company ("GALIC") and Conning Asset Management Company,
affiliates of certain stockholders of the Company.

  Because the software development industry is characterized by rapid
technological change, the Company believes that factors such as technological
and creative skills of its personnel, new product developments, frequent
product enhancements, name recognition and reliable service and support are
more important to establishing and maintaining a leadership position than
legal protections of its technology.

EMPLOYEES

  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had 318 full-time employees, consisting
of 100 employees in research and development, 70 employees in consulting and
services, 42 employees in sales and marketing, 32 employees in client support,
26 employees in finance and administration and 48 employees in the Company's
international operations. None of these employees are covered by any
collective bargaining agreements. The Company believes its relationship with
its employees is good. The future success of the Company will depend upon its
ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. Competition for such
personnel is often intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to attract and retain adequate numbers of qualified personnel in
the future.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

  The Company owns its corporate offices in Bloomfield, Connecticut, which
consist of approximately 14,800 square feet of office space. The Company also
leases an additional 18,000 square feet of office space in Bloomfield. The
Company has entered into a lease agreement for 54,000 square feet of office
space in Windsor, Connecticut and plans to relocate its corporate offices from
the Bloomfield location in the second quarter of 1998. The initial lease term
is for ten years and the Company has the right to extend the lease for one
additional term of five years. The lease requires annual payments of $717,000
for each of the first five years and annual payments of $757,000 for each of
the remaining five years. In support of its direct sales and service and
support operations, the Company utilizes facilities and offices in six
locations in the United States and Canada and also has offices in London,
England, Amsterdam, Netherlands and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

  On March 18, 1997, Elery G. Montagna and Marjory G. Montagna filed a
purported class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York (the "New York Complaint") against the Company,
its Chief Executive Officer, its Executive Vice President and its Chief
Financial Officer, as well as against BT Alex.Brown Incorporated (as successor
to Alex. Brown & Sons Incorporated, "Alex.Brown") and Hambrecht & Quist LLC
("Hambrecht & Quist"), the lead managers of the Company's initial public
offering. On April 8, 1997, Marc A. Feiner filed a purported class action
lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut
(the "Connecticut Complaint") against the Company, its directors and its Chief
Financial Officer, as well as against Alex.Brown and Hambrecht & Quist. On
July 8, 1997, Marc A. Feiner, Joseph Aogiere, Arthur S. Davis, Theodore S.
Davis, James Gregory, Brian Kreidler, Daniel Kreidler, Robert Miller, Elery
Montagna, Marjory Montagna and Gilda Shapiro Trust filed a Consolidated
Amended Class Action Complaint in the United States District Court for the
District of Connecticut (the "Consolidated Complaint") in which the New York
Complaint and the Connecticut Complaint were consolidated and amended. The
Consolidated Complaint claims that the Prospectus for the Company's initial
public offering allegedly made material misrepresentations in violation of
Sections 11 and 12(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The plaintiffs are
seeking an undetermined amount of damages and costs and expenses of the
litigation. On October 3, 1997, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the
Consolidated Complaint on the grounds that it failed to state a claim against
the Company or the individual defendants. On October 7, 1997, Alex.Brown and
Hambrecht & Quist filed a similar motion to dismiss the Consolidated Complaint
on the grounds that it failed to state a claim against them. On November 14,
1997, the plaintiffs filed an opposition to the motions to dismiss. On
December 10, 1997, Alex.Brown and Hambrecht & Quist filed a reply to such
opposition, and on December 11, 1997 the Company similarly filed a reply to
such opposition. The motions to dismiss were heard by the court on December
16, 1997 and have been taken under advisement. Although the Company believes
that it has meritorious defenses to the claims made in the lawsuit and intends
to contest the lawsuit vigorously, an adverse resolution of the lawsuit could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and
results of operations in the period in which the litigation is resolved.

  From time to time, the Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and
claims which arise in the normal course of its business. In the opinion of
management, the Company is not a party to any other litigation which it
believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.

  There were 60 stockholders of record of the Company's Common Stock as of
March 17, 1998. The number of stockholders of record may not be representative
of the number of beneficial owners because many shares are held by
depositories, brokers or other nominees.

  The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital
stock. The Company currently intends to retain earnings, if any, to support
its growth strategy and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors after taking into account
various factors, including the Company's financial condition, operating
results, current and anticipated cash needs and plans for expansion.

  On December 31, 1997, the Company acquired Shepro Braun Systems, Inc.
("SBS") pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 31,
1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), among the Company, SBS, Securities Software
Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger
Subsidiary") and Robert C. Shepro, Linda A. Shepro, Richard J. Moore, Mark L.
Seaman and Brian R. Shearer (collectively, the "SBS Stockholders"). Pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Subsidiary was merged with and into SBS,
whereupon SBS became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. At that time,
the outstanding shares of capital stock of SBS were exchanged for an aggregate
of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Shares"). The Shares
were issued and sold to the SBS Stockholders in reliance on Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a sale by the Company not involving
a public offering. No underwriters were involved with the issuance and sale of
the Shares.
