Item 1. Business.
Business. Established in 1983 as an outgrowth of an on-line accounting
and bankcard data processing system developed for Columbus Bank and Trust
Company(R), Total System Services, Inc.(sm) ("TSYS(R)") is now one of the
world's largest credit, debit and private-label card processing companies. Based
in Columbus, Georgia, and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol
"TSS," TSYS provides a comprehensive on-line system of data processing services
marketed as THE TOTAL SYSTEM(sm), servicing issuing and acquiring institutions
throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico, representing more
than 63 million cardholder and over 600,000 merchant accounts. TSYS provides
card production, domestic and international clearing, statement preparation,
customer service support, merchant accounting, merchant services and management
support. Synovus Financial Corp.(R), a $7.9 billion asset, multi-financial
services company, owns 80.8 percent of TSYS.
TSYS has four wholly-owned subsidiaries: (1) Columbus Depot Equipment
Company(sm) ("CDEC(sm)"), which sells and leases computer related equipment
associated with TSYS' bankcard data processing services and bank data processing
services provided by an affiliate; (2) Mailtek, Inc.(sm) ("Mailtek"), which
provides full-service direct mail production services and offers data
processing, list management, laser printing, computer output microfiche, card
embossing, encoding and mailing services; (3) Lincoln Marketing, Inc.(sm)
("LMI"), which provides correspondence, fulfillment, telemarketing, data
processing and mailing services; and (4) Columbus Productions, Inc.(sm) ("CPI"),
which provides full-service commercial printing and related services. TSYS also
holds a 49% equity interest in a Mexican company named Total System Services de
Mexico, S.A. de C.V.("TSM"), which provides credit card related processing
services to Mexican banks.
Service Marks. TSYS owns a family of service marks containing the name
Total System, and the federally registered service marks TSYS and TS2, to which
TSYS believes strong customer identification attaches. TSYS also owns service
marks associated with its subsidiaries. Management does not believe the loss of
such marks would have a material impact on the business of TSYS.
Major Customers. A significant amount of TSYS' revenues are derived
from certain major customers who are processed under long-term contracts. For
the year ended December 31, 1995, AT&T Universal Card Services Corp. and
NationsBank accounted for 21.4% and 12.4%, respectively, of TSYS' total
revenues. As a result, the loss of one of TSYS' major customers could have a
material adverse effect on TSYS' results of operations.
- ------------------------------------
Synovus Financial Corp., Synovus, Columbus Bank and Trust Company and CB&T are
federally registered service marks of Synovus Financial Corp. Total System
Services, Inc., "THE TOTAL SYSTEM," Columbus Depot Equipment Company, CDEC,
Lincoln Marketing, Inc., Mailtek, Inc. and Columbus Productions, Inc. are
service marks of Total System Services, Inc. TSYS and TS2 are federally
registered service marks of Total System Services, Inc.
1
Competition. TSYS encounters vigorous competition in providing bankcard
data processing services from several different sources. The national market in
third party bankcard data processors is presently being provided by
approximately five vendors. TSYS believes that it is the second largest third
party bankcard processor in the United States. In addition, TSYS competes
against software vendors which provide their products to institutions which
process in-house. TSYS is presently encountering, and in the future anticipates
continuing to encounter, substantial competition from bankcard associations,
data processing and bankcard computer service firms and other such third party
vendors located throughout the United States.
TSYS' major competitor in the bankcard data processing industry is
First Data Resources, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Data Corporation,
which is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, and provides bankcard data processing
services, including authorization and data entry services. The principal methods
of competition between TSYS and First Data Resources are price and the type and
quality of services provided. In addition, there are a number of other companies
which have the necessary financial resources and the technological ability to
develop or acquire products and, in the future, to provide services similar to
those being offered by TSYS.
Regulation and Examination. TSYS is subject to being examined, and is
indirectly regulated, by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the
Federal Reserve Board ("Board"), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Office of Thrift Supervision, the National Credit Union Administration, and the
various state financial regulatory agencies which supervise and regulate the
banks, savings institutions and credit unions for which TSYS provides bankcard
data processing services. Matters reviewed and examined by these federal and
state financial institution regulatory agencies have included TSYS' internal
controls in connection with its present performance of bankcard data processing
services, and the agreements pursuant to which TSYS provides such services.
On January 4, 1990, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta approved
Synovus' indirect retention of its ownership of TSYS through Columbus Bank and
Trust Company ("CB&T") and TSYS is now subject to direct regulation by the
Board. TSYS was formed with the prior written approval of, and is subject to
regulation and examination by, the Department of Banking and Finance of the
State of Georgia as a subsidiary of CB&T and is authorized to engage in only
those activities which CB&T itself is authorized to engage in directly, which
includes the bankcard and other data processing services presently being
provided by TSYS. As TSYS and its subsidiaries operate as subsidiaries of CB&T,
they are subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Employees. On December 31, 1995, TSYS had 2,269 full-time employees.

Note 4 and Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 30
through 32, 33 and 34, and 37 of TSYS' 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders which
are specifically incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2. Properties.
TSYS owns its 73,000 square foot South Center located at 1000 Fifth
Avenue, Columbus, Georgia 31901, and owns its 60,000 square foot Annex Building
located at 420 10th Street, Columbus, Georgia 31901. TSYS also owns a warehouse
facility, various other tracts of real estate located near or adjacent to its
South Center and Annex Building which are used for parking and/or future
expansion needs, and leases additional office space in Columbus, Georgia,
Atlanta, Georgia, and Jacksonville, Florida.
The approximately 32,000 square foot Columbus Depot, located at 1200
Sixth Avenue, Columbus, Georgia 31901, which is owned by TSYS and is on the
National Register of Historic Places, houses TSYS' executive offices and several
corporate divisions.
TSYS also owns a 210,000 square foot production center which is located
on a 40.4 acre tract of land in north Columbus, Georgia. Primarily a production
center, this facility houses TSYS' primary data processing computer operations,
statement preparation, mail handling, microfiche production and purchasing, as
well as other related operations.
TSM owns a 52,000 square foot structure in Toluca, Mexico which has
offices, a communication node and facilities for statement production, report
printing and card embossing.
During 1995, TSYS purchased a 110,000 square foot building on a 23-acre
site in Columbus, Georgia, to accommodate current and future office space needs.
On March 7, 1996, TSYS announced its plans to purchase approximately 50
acres in downtown Columbus, Georgia, on which it will begin building a
campus-like complex for its corporate headquarters in early 1997.
All properties owned and leased by TSYS are in good repair and suitable
condition for the purposes for which they are used.
In addition to its real property, TSYS owns and/or leases a substantial
amount of computer equipment.
