PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

THE COMPANY

Cam Data Systems, Inc. (the "Company") was organized under the laws of the
State of Delaware on April 29, 1987. On June 5, 1987, Cam Data Systems, Inc.,
a corporation organized on September 20, 1983 under the laws of the State of
California was merged with and into the Company. The Company's principal
business is to design, assemble, market, service, and support point of sale,
order entry, inventory control, and accounting systems for small to medium size
retailers. The Company earns revenues from the sale of its systems and monthly
service fees charged to its customers under service agreements. Sales and
service operations are located in California and Massachusetts while the
Company's customers are located throughout the United States.

THE SYSTEMS

The Company offers two Turn Key Systems:

1. THE CAM SYSTEM - designed for hardgoods retailers whose inventory is
reorderable in nature.

2. THE PROFIT$ SYSTEM - designed for Apparel and Shoe retailers whose
inventory is seasonal in nature and color and size oriented.

The Company's systems offer the ability to obtain: (i) automated
pricing of each item; (ii) billing for charge account customers; (iii) printing
of a customer invoice; (iv) tracking of inventory count on an item by item
basis; (v) computation of gross profit, dollars and/or percentage of each item;
and (vi) tracking of sales by clerk and department by hour, day and/or month.
In addition, the Company's systems provide full management reporting including
zero sales reports, inventory ranking, overstock and understock, sales
analysis, inventory valuation (cost, average cost and retail) and other
reports. The systems can also provide accounting functions including accounts
receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, and payroll functions.

The Company's systems integrate IBM compatible computers, electronic
and terminal style cash registers, hand held and table top bar code laser
scanning equipment, terminal work stations, printers, and the Company's circuit
boards and software. The Company is able to adapt its software to existing IBM
compatible computer hardware. Each system is configured to meet the customer's
particular needs and, as a result, the components included in each system,
including the personal computer, printer,





3
4

cash register and the Company's circuit boards and software, depend on the
needs, the size and the industry type of the customer.

The Company's software is derived from software originally designed
and subsequently licensed to (or acquired by) the Company by Retail Solutions
Inc. for the CAM system, and by MicroStrategies Inc. for the Profit$ system. The
Company continues to make modifications and enhancements to the software.

The Company provides an entire system to each customer on a "turn key"
basis, in that the Company provides all of the hardware and the software as
well as the installation of a system in the customer's premises. The CAM
system is capable of linking up to 20 retail outlets per defined region and up
to 20 regions. The Profit$ system is capable of linking up to 99 stores. In a
multiple outlet system, the Company typically installs a single computer at
each outlet that, through a modem system, communicates with a central computer
at the customer's main accounting location. The central computer compiles all
information from the other locations for processing and reporting.

INVENTORY MANAGEMENT

The Company believes that inventory control is the most important and
time consuming task facing the management of retail outlets. The systems were
designed by the Company to address the retailer's need for simpler and yet more
accurate means of controlling a large and diverse inventory. All inventory
information, once entered into the system, is updated for each sale that is
transmitted from the cash register to the computer. The systems are able to
provide the following managerial reports:

1. POPULARITY RANKING. The systems will report on the popularity of each
item in the store by producing a report listing each item of inventory ranked
according to the number of sales of each item. The report is generated
automatically and can produce a list on daily, weekly, monthly, year-to-date
and/or trailing 13 months of sales basis. The systems will also analyze the
popularity data and indicate to the retailer which particular items of
inventory are needed and which items are overstocked.

2. ZERO SALES REPORT. The systems provide a sales analysis on a monthly
and year-to-date basis for inventory items for which no sales have been made.
The analysis can be reported on a total sales basis or on a departmental or
item level basis.

3. INVENTORY TABULATION AND VALUATION. The systems provide reports
listing all inventory on hand, the valuation of such inventory on a cost and
retail basis, the average cost of each item in inventory, and all items of
inventory on order but not yet received.





4
5

4. AUTOMATIC PURCHASING. The systems provide a report listing all items
that should be ordered based upon historical data stored in the system,
including the number of items in inventory, the number on the shelf, the
number on order and the minimum quantities required. The systems can also
automatically provide a purchase order if desired.

5. PRICING. The systems are capable of producing price stickers in 20
customized label formats, assigning Uniform Purchase Code numbers and printing
bar-codes directly upon the price labels for reading by laser scanners. In
addition, if there is a price change, the systems will automatically update the
pricing information and, if desired, print new pricing labels.

6. REPORTS. The systems permit the retailer to customize and produce
reports and forms utilizing the data in the system in a format preferred by the
retailer.

ACCOUNTING MANAGEMENT

The CAM system is capable of performing accounting functions through
software available from the Company. The system can maintain accounts
receivable, accounts payable and general ledgers and can maintain and perform
all payroll functions including the printing of payroll checks. The Company
markets Great Plains software to customers that want accounting functions for
the Profit$ system.

SERVICE AND SUPPORT

Customer service and support is a critical element in maintaining
customer satisfaction. Each purchaser of a system, for an ongoing fee ranging
from .75% to 1.2% per month of the initial purchase price of the system
purchased, receives service and support from the Company. The service and
support provided by the Company includes:

1. HARDWARE SERVICE. The Company's service representatives will service the
computer hardware included in a system at the customer's location, and
currently contracts with AT&T for on site service and repair. The
representatives are trained to determine the source of the problem or
malfunction in the hardware and, once determined, replace the defective
component. The Company's on-site service representatives do not attempt to
repair defective components. Defective components, after removal from the
system, are either repaired at the Company's facility or sent to a
manufacturer's authorized service center for repair

2. SOFTWARE SERVICE AND ENHANCEMENTS. Software service involves either the
replacement or reinstallation of existing software. The Company, while not
performing any customizing of its software for particular customers, is
sensitive to comments from customers concerning the Company's software.





5
6

Such comments, together with planned revisions to the software, result in
enhancements and improvements which are provided without additional cost to all
customers on a service contract.

3. TRAINING. In order to assure a customer that he will be able to properly
integrate the Company's system into his business, the Company provides training
on the use and application of the system to each customer at the Company's
in-house training facility during the ninety day warranty period. Customers
located away from a CAM office, receive two on-site visits for initial
installation and training. The amount of training required depends upon the
knowledge and experience of the user plus the complexity of the business to
which the system is being adapted. The data input into the system by a
retailer is also dependent upon the complexity of the business plus the
functions the user intends the system to perform.

4. PHONE ASSISTANCE. By having phone assistance available seven days a week,
the Company enables a customer to obtain assistance whenever necessary.

MARKETING

DIRECT SALES

The Company markets its systems primarily through the Company's direct
sales force consisting of seventeen salespersons, all of whom work exclusively
for the Company. The Company's marketing efforts extend nationwide with
offices in the states of California and Massachusetts. Each salesperson is
assigned a specific geographical territory in which to offer the systems.
Typically, the salesperson will telephone canvas an area, and in some cases
make visits to retailers in the assigned territory. Each salesperson is
provided with a sales kit and demonstration equipment. Each salesperson is
trained by the Company to be able to define the needs of the potential
customer, recommend a system configuration, and provide appropriate price
quotes. Upon the execution of a typical sales contract, the Company is
generally able to install an entire system within four to six weeks. The
Company is paid directly by the customer or by third party leasing companies.
Salespersons are compensated on the basis of a percentage of gross profit to
the Company for each system sold.

BROCHURES, TRADE SHOWS, AND ADVERTISING MEDIA

The Company continues to increase awareness of its systems by
advertising in trade journals and other print media targeted at retail
businesses, attending industry specific trade shows, the use of sales
promotional videos on VHS format, and through direct mail advertising.

ASSEMBLY AND SOURCES OF SUPPLY

The computer hardware which makes up the Company's systems consists
primarily of standard components purchased by the Company from outside
distributors and manufacturers such as Okidata (printers), Symbol





6
7

Technologies (hand held laser scanners and portable data terminals), Wyse
(Terminals), Ithaca (40 column printers),and U.S. Robotics (modems). For most
computer hardware components, the Company has more than one source of supply.

Certain hardware, such as the Company's proprietary computer circuit
board, was designed by the Company and is manufactured to the Company's
specifications by manufacturers unaffiliated with the Company. The Company
does not have any agreements with the manufacturers of its proprietary circuit
boards but management believes if the current manufacturers were not available,
additional manufacturers could readily provide the required services.

BACKLOG

The Company purchases component hardware for its systems based upon
system purchase orders and its forecast of demand for its products. Orders
from customers are usually shipped by the Company pursuant to an agreed upon
schedule. However, orders may be cancelled or rescheduled by the customer
without penalty. For this reason, management believes backlog information is
not indicative of the Company's future sales or business trends and is subject
to fluctuation. As of December 10, 1995, backlog was approximately $583,000 as
compared to $1,200,000 on December 10, 1994. Backlog is based upon purchase
orders placed with the Company which the Company believes are firm orders.

COMPETITION

The industry in which the Company operates is highly competitive. The
Company competes with suppliers dedicated to one type of business and suppliers
of software that provide functions similar to the Company's software.

The Company competes on the basis of the capabilities and
competitiveness of its systems and the additional information they provide and
functions they perform. The Company believes its systems offer greater
capabilities to the small and medium size retailers than suppliers of other
systems. Included among such capabilities are multi-user capability, ongoing
software enhancement, and a service organization in place to support the
customer after the initial sale.

The Company also competes with vertical market suppliers of automated
retail systems which include hardware and software intended for use by a
particular retail industry segment. Some of these suppliers have a shorter
operating history, less financial resources and overhead expenses, and attempt
to compete with the Company on the basis of lower pricing. This has caused the
Company to discount sales prices in some instances, and this may continue in
future periods.





7
8

The ability of the Company to meet competition will depend upon, among
other things, the Company's ability to maintain its marketing effort, increase
the capabilities of its systems through ongoing enhancements and improvements,
contend with sales price discounting, and to obtain financing when, and if,
needed.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company does not hold any patents or trademarks. The Company
relies on a combination of trade secrets, copyright laws and technical measures
to protect its rights to its proprietary software. The software included in a
system is not accessible by customers for purposes of revisions or copying as
the Company does not release the software source code to customers. In
addition, as the Company performs software service at the customer's location,
the Company maintains strict control of its software disks.

The Company's proprietary circuit board was designed specifically to
link the computer hardware included in the CAM system with the CAM software.
The expertise required to design and build such circuit boards is readily
available to competitors and there can be no assurance that such circuit boards
will not be produced and utilized by such competitors.

SEASONALITY

The Company believes that seasonality has not had a significant
effect on their business.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

The Company's software has been developed using a modular approach.
Modular designing allows a programmer to incorporate, replace or delete parts
of a computer software program without affecting the operation of the remaining
parts of the program. Accordingly, modular design facilitates the development
of the Company's software and new products enabling the Company's programmers
to incorporate entire sections from existing programs into the designs for such
products. The incorporation of existing software, which has already been fully
tested, into new products, reduces the time and expense that the Company would
otherwise incur in developing and enhancing its products.

The Company spent approximately $979,400, $652,300, and $513,400 on
software development, including amounts capitalized during the years ended
September 30, 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The Company anticipates that
it will continue to incur software development costs in connection with
enhancements and improvements of its software and the development of new
products. These activities may require an increase in the Company's
programming and technical staff which presently consists of ten programmers and
four quality control and testing personnel.

9

EMPLOYEES

The Company has one hundred and two full time employees, seven of whom
are employed in administration, fifteen in programming and testing, twenty-five
in sales and marketing, and fifty-five in operations, installation, and service
and support.

None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union and
the Company believes that it enjoys harmonious relationships with its
employees.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

There has been no material effect on the Company from compliance with
environmental regulations.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company currently leases approximately 15,200 square feet of space
in Fountain Valley, California pursuant to a five-year lease expiring January
31, 1998 at an average annual rent of approximately $119,000 a year. This
facility houses the Company's executive and administrative offices, research
and development facilities, service and support staff, and inventory warehouse.

In addition, the Company also leases the following properties: (i)
approximately 2,513 square feet of office space in Hayward, California pursuant
to a twelve month lease expiring on April 30, 1996, at an annual rent of
approximately $16,500; and (ii) approximately 1,400 square feet of office space
in Millis, Massachusetts on a month to month lease of $800 per month.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company believes that there are no material legal proceedings,
pending or contemplated, to which the Company or any of the Company's
properties is the subject or to which the Company is a party and which are not
in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not aware of any material
legal proceeding pending or threatened, or judgments entered against any
director or executive officer of the company in his capacity as such where the
position of any such director or executive officer is adverse to the Company.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Neither the Board of Directors nor any security holder submitted any
matter during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report to a
vote of security holders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

The following report of the Compensation Committee is provided solely to the
shareholders of the Company pursuant to the requirements of Schedule 14A
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and shall not be deemed
to be "filed" with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of
establishing statutory liability. The Report shall not be incorporated by
reference in any document previously or subsequently filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission that incorporates by reference all or any portion of
this document.

TO: THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

As members of the Compensation Committee, it is our duty to review and
recommend the compensation levels for members of the Company's management,
evaluate the performance of management and administer the Company's various
incentive plans. This Committee has reviewed in detail the Compensation of the
Company's five executive officers. In the opinion of the Committee, the
compensation of the five executive officers of the Company is reasonable in
view of its performance and the respective contributions of such officers to
the Company' performance.

In determining the management compensation, this Committee compares the
compensation paid to management to the level and structure of compensation paid
to competing companies. Additionally, the Committee considers the sales and
earnings performance of the Company compared to competing and similarly
situated companies. The Committee also takes into account such relevant
external factors as general economic conditions, geographic market of work
place, stock price performance and stock market prices.

Management compensation is comprised of 75% to 80% of fixed salary, and 20%
to 25% variable compensation based on performance factors. Stock options are
granted at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and there is no set
minimum or maximum amount of options that can be issued. Performance factors
that determine management compensation are sales and net income of the Company.
These performance factors were exceeded in fiscal 1995, with a revenue increase
of 11%, and a 56% increase in net income.

The committee examines compilations of executive compensation such as
various industry compensation surveys for middle market companies. In 1995,
the compensation for the Chief Executive Officer was comparable to other Chief
Executive Officers of middle market companies in related industries.

Mr. Knapp, a member of the Committee, is also an executive officer of
the Company. However, Mr. Knapp abstained from any considerations with respect
to any decision directly affecting his compensation.

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

An Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "ISO Plan") in accordance with
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended (the "Code"), was
adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders of the
Company in June 1987. The ISO Plan authorizes the Board of Directors to grant
options from time to time to directors, officers and key employees of the
Company. In April 1990, the total number of shares of the Company's Common
Stock that may be issued or delivered under the ISO Plan net of forfeiture and
based on the present capitalization was increased from 100,000 to 250,000
shares.

Options granted under the ISO Plan must comply with certain provisions
of the Code relating to, among other things, the maximum dollar amount of
options that may be exercised by an optionee in any calendar year, the minimum
exercise price of an option and the persons eligible to be granted options. No
options granted under the ISO Plan will be exercisable for a period exceeding
five years, and the ISO Plan expires in June 1997.

Except as otherwise required by the Code with respect to optionees
owning 10% or more of the Common Stock outstanding at the time of grant, the
exercise price of an option under the ISO Plan must not be less than 100% of
the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock at the time of grant. The
fair market value of a share of Common Stock is to be determined by the Board
of Directors, or by a committee of the Board of Directors, as the case may be,
in good faith based upon the trading market of such shares.

The exercise price of any options granted pursuant to the ISO Plan to
optionees owning more than 10% of the Common Stock outstanding at the time of
grant may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the underlying
Common Stock at the time of grant.

1993 STOCK OPTION PLAN

In April 1993, the shareholders of the Company approved the Company's
1993 Stock Option Plan (the "1993 Plan") under which non- statutory options may
be granted to key employees and individuals who provide services to the
Company, at a price not less than the fair market value at the date of grant,
and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options are exercisable based
on vesting periods as determined by the Board of Directors. The Plan allows
for the issuance of an aggregate of 400,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. The Plan has a term of ten years. There have been 327,000 options
granted under the 1993 Plan as of September 30, 1995.

401-K PLAN

In July 1991, the Company adopted a contributory profit-sharing plan
under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which covers substantially
all employees. Under the plan, eligible employees are able to contribute up to
15% of their compensation. The Company's contributions are at the discretion
of the board of directors. The Company contribution for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1995, totaled $34,000.
