PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
Keane, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Keane" or "the Company," unless
the context requires otherwise) is a leading provider of e-business, Information
Technology (IT), and consulting services. The Company helps clients plan, build,
and manage business systems and implement business processes, organizational
change, and change management programs to realize value from their IT and
e-business initiatives.
In business since 1965, Keane has steadily focused on helping clients leverage
technology to improve business performance. Today, this focus is the thread
tying together all of the Company's service offerings. Keane's clients are
increasingly looking to harness the power of the Internet and newer
technologies, and integrate these technologies with existing systems to
transition to a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce environment. At the same
time, effectively managing and improving existing systems has become more
critical than ever, given the importance of these systems to e-commerce
initiatives.
As a result, Keane sees its e-business and applications development and
management services as key drivers of growth. To meet this market need, the
Company expanded its e-Solutions capability in 1999 to offer clients a full
life-cycle solution from strategy development through design, implementation,
integration, and management of e-business solutions. Keane also continues to
invest in its Applications Development and Management Outsourcing solution,
which it considers among the best in the industry. This conclusion is based on
consultations with industry analyst firms, audits of Keane's projects by the
Center for Systems Management (against the Capability Maturity Model--the CMM),
and benchmarking Keane's productivity against the Quantitative Software
Management's (QSM) metrics repository of 20,000 completed IT projects within the
industry.
Keane's clients consist primarily of Fortune 1000 organizations across every
major industry, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. The Company
services clients on a local level through branch offices in major markets of the
United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. These offices are supported by
centralized practices representing Keane's core services and key competencies.
Keane is a Massachusetts corporation headquartered in Boston. Its stock is
traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol KEA. Information on Keane
can be accessed on the Company's web site at www.keane.com or through its
Investor Relations line at 1-800-75-KEANE.
SERVICES
Keane offers an integrated mix of end-to-end business and IT solutions. The
Company divides its business into three main lines: Business and IT Consulting,
e-Solutions (including its Applications Development and Integration services),
and Applications Development and Management Outsourcing. For each business line,
Keane offers a full life cycle solution. Keane believes its comprehensive range
of service positions the Company as a strategic partner to clients because these
services enable Keane to identify and implement complete solutions that meet
clients' specific business requirements.
The paragraphs below outline Keane's core business lines and some of the key
competencies it draws on to deliver its solutions.
Business and IT Consulting (plan services)
Keane's consulting services represent a critical component in the Company's
ability to help clients achieve business value from IT investments. These
consulting services focus on assisting companies in transforming their strategy,
processes, organization, and IT infrastructure for competitive advantage.
Findings and recommendations oftentimes become the foundation for successful
transitions to e-business as well as key IT decisions, such as implementation of
new technologies, overhauls of existing systems, and integration of
customer-facing business systems with back-office platforms and applications.
The Keane Consulting
2
Group offers the following services: e-Strategy (e-business strategy
development), Operations Improvement, e-Transformation (services that focus on
updating a client's business model and processes in alignment with e-business
requirements), and Customer Relationship Management Strategy services. Clients
undergoing organizational change associated with transforming their business to
leverage the Internet, integrating mergers and acquisitions, or adapting to
governmental deregulation may benefit from these services.
e-Solutions (e-Architecture, Online Branding, Applications Development and
Integration) (build services)
Keane's e-business services (marketed under the e-Solutions name) help clients
exploit new technology to meet their business objectives. Offerings and
capabilities range from e-architecture planning and implementation, to creative
web design and development, application development and integration,
architecture planning, data warehousing, implementation of customer relationship
management (CRM) technologies, and enterprise application integration. This
range of services responds to clients, which are increasingly concentrating on
ways they can leverage Internet technologies in their organizations. Many of
Keane's clients are focused on supply chain optimization, e-markets, exchanges,
and e-procurement initiatives due to their tremendous return on investment.
Keane believes it is well positioned to manage such large-scale projects,
because of the strength of its program management competencies, delivery
methodologies, and quality assurance processes.
This business line also includes Keane's Healthcare Solutions practice, which
offers a suite of Healthcare Information Systems (HIS) and related consulting
and IT services. Keane's HIS products provide the architecture to streamline and
link financial, patient care, and clinical operations across hospitals, group
practices, long-term care facilities, and HMOs. The systems are compatible with
the operating systems used by healthcare institutions nationwide, including an
open UNIX platform as well as IBM's AS/400 and RS/6000 environments. In
addition, Keane's broad range of services can help healthcare clients address
ongoing HIPAA requirements, a legislative act which is expected to have
far-reaching implications on the industry's IT infrastructure and business
operations.
Applications Development and Management (ADM) Outsourcing (manage services)
Keane's ADM Outsourcing services help clients effectively manage and enhance
existing business systems to improve performance while better controlling costs.
Under this service offering, Keane manages clients' business applications with
commitments to improving software quality, processes, and costs. Outsourcing
engagements may also encompass development of new applications, as directed by
clients. Since 1997, Keane has used the Software Engineering Institute's
Capability Maturity Model (CMM) as a standard for objectively measuring its
success in improving its client's application management. This move has given
Keane a strategic advantage in the application outsourcing area, as Keane is one
of the only leading ADM outsourcing providers to actively gauge its delivery
against this industry standard. To date, Keane has earned CMM Level 3 or greater
distinction on 27 engagements. In addition, Keane is expanding its metrics
strategy to incorporate QSM Productivity Index.
SERVICE DELIVERY MODEL
Throughout the 1990s as Keane refined its end-to-end solutions, the Company
transformed its service delivery model to accommodate profitable growth and
optimal customer service. The transition combines service delivery via local
branch offices with expertise provided by centralized practice groups. These
practices represent core service offerings (e.g., Consulting, e-Solutions, and
ADM Outsourcing) and critical competencies, such as vertical specialization and
Keane's application development center.
Keane considers this client-centric delivery model an important means for
achieving the following:
1. increasing sales and revenue growth,
2. providing higher value services and thereby enhancing margins,
3. strengthening client relationships and recurring revenues,
4. cross-selling the full breadth of its services,
5. lowering the costs of doing business, and
3
6. maintaining employee satisfaction and thus retention.
This delivery model presents advantages to clients as well, among them
responsive and proactive service, cost efficiencies, and a greater level of
staffing continuity. Keane client's benefit from the convenience and
attentiveness of being served locally by its branch offices while also
benefiting from Keane's company-wide knowledge and experience through its
centralized practice groups. Each of these factors contributes to client
satisfaction levels. Keane's intent is to maximize synergies between its strong
field organization and its enterprise practices to fuel sales and support
world-class delivery across the organization.
STRATEGIC DIFFERENTIATORS AND STRENGTHS
Keane considers the following competitive strengths vis-a-vis new entrants and
existing competitors.
1. End-to-end solutions. Keane's integrated line of services equip it with the
capabilities to partner with clients in their mission to leverage
Information Technology to improve business performance. Specifically, Keane
can design, develop, integrate, and manage business-critical software
applications and advise clients on process and organizational improvements
to take advantage of these applications. This range of competencies enables
Keane to help clients overcome the challenge of "enterprise integration"
which is essential to success in such areas as business to business
("B2B"), e-commerce, and customer relationship management. Enterprise
integration encompasses the integration of new technologies across multiple
platforms, with existing systems, and with core business processes. The
Company's comprehensive offerings and enterprise integration expertise,
together with its high customer intimacy, is a significant combination
distinguishing Keane from existing competitors and establishing barriers to
entry for new competitors.
2. Strong customer relationships. Keane has more than 1,400 client
relationships, which provides a strong channel for developing a deep
understanding of client business and IT requirements, marketing the full
scope of its integrated service offerings, and enabling a high percentage
of recurring revenues. Keane seeks to build long-term relationships with
its clients
3. Strong distribution. The demand for e-business application development and
management services, in particular, are mass market opportunities. Keane's
extensive branch office distribution (across North America and the United
Kingdom) allows it to capture and deliver business in each of the
geographic markets where it operates. This allows Keane to cost-effectively
deliver solutions with a minimum of sales, general, and administrative
(SG&A) expense. It also enables the development of high-level customer
intimacy and satisfaction.
4. Expertise integrating new and old technology. Keane's technical
competencies cut across newer Internet technologies and older legacy
platforms, and in integrating the two. This range of expertise enables
Keane to develop customer-facing e-business applications that are
integrated with the back office and data warehouses--a fundamental
technological challenge that virtually all companies face as they try to
implement e-business initiatives. Keane has extensive experience with
enterprise application integration gained from its efforts in extending the
value of clients' existing business systems.
5. Project management competencies. Unlike newer entrants to the market, Keane
has extensive competencies in project management along with a comprehensive
set of mature delivery methodologies. Keane also has a strong quality
assurance and program management system. The Company continues to invest in
these disciplines and assets to add value to its individual service
offerings and to strengthen its capabilities in assuming a "prime
contractor" role on large e-business initiatives involving a series of
complex and concurrent projects.
CLIENTS AND MARKETPLACE DRIVERS
Keane's clients consist primarily of the Fortune 1,000 organizations, but also
include government agencies, healthcare organizations, and "dot com" or Internet
start-ups. These organizations generally have significant IT budgets and/or
depend on service providers to help them fulfill their business optimization and
software design, development, implementation, and management needs.

The markets Keane services are experiencing major changes in business climate.
Increased competition, globalization, and deregulation are forcing companies to
devise new ways to differentiate their products and services and more
effectively acquire and retain customers. For most companies, this will require
a major transformation of the organizational structure and business processes,
and significant investments in information technology.
In this environment, Internet technologies are becoming a channel for continuous
and real-time business transactions, including interaction with customers,
distribution of product and materials, and exchange of information with
suppliers, trading partners, and employees. In addition, companies must optimize
and integrate their back-office and legacy systems with newer technologies to
realize the potential of new technology implementations.
5
Keane's executive management, recognizing the implications of these forces,
expects the Company's primary revenue drivers will be its business consulting,
e-Solutions, and applications outsourcing services through 2002. E-business
includes B2B initiative as well as business-to-customer (B2C) projects. Industry
research firm Gartner Group forecasts the B2B market worldwide to grow from $145
billion in 1999 to $7.29 trillion in 2004. Moreover, by 2004, B2B e-commerce
will represent 7% of the forecasted $105 trillion total global sales
transactions, according to Gartner.
The Company has historically derived, and may in the future derive, a
significant percentage of its total revenue from a relatively small number of
clients. Keane's five largest clients accounted for approximately 19% of the
Company's total revenues during each of the years ended December 31, 1998 and
1999. The Company's two largest clients during 1998 and 1999 were various
organizations within the Federal Government and IBM. Federal Government
contracts accounted for approximately 5% and 6% of the Company's total revenues
in 1998 and 1999, respectively. IBM accounted for approximately 6% of the
Company's total revenues for 1998 and 1999. A significant decline in revenues
from IBM or the Federal Government could have a material adverse effect upon the
Company's total revenues. With the exception of IBM and the Federal Government,
no single client accounted for more than 5% of the Company's revenues during the
three years ended December 31, 1999.
In accordance with industry practices, nearly all of the Company's orders are
terminable by either the client or the Company on short notice. The Company does
not believe that backlog is material to the business. The Company had orders at
December 31, 1999 of approximately $786 million, in comparison to orders of
approximately $900 million at December 31, 1998.
GROWTH STRATEGY
Keane's growth strategy unites a series of complementary initiatives all focused
on increasing revenue, enhancing margins, cross-selling services to existing
accounts, and developing new customers. The core elements of this strategy, as
described below, build on Keane's strengths and strategic programs that have
been under way throughout much of the 1990s:
o Build an operating model capable of generating 25% CAGR. Keane has made
significant strides over the past three years in developing and enhancing a
complete line of services (its end-to-end solutions) to help clients derive
business value from IT. These efforts have enabled Keane to evolve its
revenue mix into higher margin solutions business. Through its operating
model, the Company is focused on positioning itself as a premier provider
of end-to-end solutions. Senior management attention is focused on the
following areas:
o seamlessly integrating its strategic practices and branch operations
to augment sale and delivery of the Company's full range of services,
o leveraging its vast geographic presence in the U.S., as well as its
presence in Canada and the U.K.,
o leveraging its relationships and reputation with its large customer
base,
o developing repeatable solutions to accelerate growth, and
o building scalable systems and processes to accommodate growth.
o Leverage strategic practices to accelerate revenue and margin growth.
Keane's strategic practices are an important means for targeting
mass-market opportunities (e.g., e-business and application outsourcing)
and expanding capabilities at the local level. These practices gather,
refine, and disseminate Keane's best practices, including repeatable
solutions that can be used across multiple client engagements throughout
Keane's branches. Keane will continue to expand the value of these
practices with vertical and domain expertise. The Company has a senior
management team in place to direct integration of these practices with
branch operations to enable Keane to sell and deliver its full
"Plan-Build-Manage" capabilities across local markets.
o Leverage branch structure to drive sales growth. Keane has made significant
strides in developing "critical mass" in its branch organization and
expanding its geographic reach. Today, the Company has branch offices in
major markets across the United States, and in Canada and the United
Kingdom. Through these branches, the Company has cultivated relationships
with more than 1,400 clients. Keane incentivizes its local sales and
management teams to proactively manage their client relationships, by
maintaining a deep understanding of clients' business and operational needs
and marketing the full range of Keane's services to respond to their
requirements. The Company believes its end-to-end solutions are synergistic
in that delivery from one service line (for instance, e-Strategy, a "plan"
service) positions Keane to deliver services in another business line (for
instance, development of web-based applications, a "build" service).
6
o Build a world-class organization. Keane recognizes that a world-class
organization embodying top people, processes, and IT infrastructure assets
is necessary for the Company's continued success. To enhance its
organization, Keane is focusing on the following:
o attracting, developing, and retaining top business, technical and
managerial talent,
o continuously upgrading corporate support functions, including finance,
marketing, IT, HR and knowledge management, toward a customer
(internal and external) orientation,
o investing in its strategic practices to continually improve its
services, and
o institutionalizing key operational and delivery processes and best
practices.
o Build awareness and strength of the Keane brand. Keane has established
world-class capabilities and key strengths in business, operational, and IT
consulting, e-business, applications development and integration, and
applications management. The Company plans to devote resources to branding
to make its capabilities and its value proposition better known in the
marketplace. Initiatives in 2000 are focused on:
o communicating a unified brand that supports Keane's
"plan-build-manage" services,
o increasing awareness of Keane's presence and competitive advantages in
the e-business space, and
o building on its current brand which embodies reliable,
results-oriented delivery of IT services.
SALES, MARKETING AND ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT
Keane markets its services and software products through its direct sales force,
which is based in its branch offices, and through its centralized practices.
Keane's account executives (AEs) are assigned to a limited number of accounts so
they can develop an in-depth understanding of each client's individual needs and
form strong client relationships. These AEs are responsible for ensuring that
clients receive responsive service and that Keane's software solutions achieve
client objectives. AEs collaborate with Keane's Practice Groups and other branch
offices as needed to address specialized client requirements.
Keane focuses its marketing efforts on organizations with significant IT budgets
and recurring software development and outsourcing needs. In 1998, the Company
launched a corporate branding campaign focused on communicating Keane's value
proposition of reliably delivering application solutions with quantifiable
business results. These branding efforts are actively executed through multiple
channels. In 2000, the Company plans to develop and extend its branding program
to reflect Keane's strategic intent.
EMPLOYEES
On December 31, 1999, Keane had 8,981 employees, including 6,902 business and
technical professionals' staff whose services are billable to clients. The
Company sometimes supplements its technical staff by utilizing sub contractors.
Management believes Keane's growth and success are attributable to the caliber
of its people and will continue to dedicate significant resources to hiring,
training and development, and career advancement programs. Keane's efforts in
these areas are grounded in the Company's core values, namely respect for the
individual, commitment to client success, achievement through teamwork,
integrity, and the drive for continuous improvement. Keane strives to hire,
promote, and recognize individuals and teams who embody these values.
Keane recognizes that there is significant competition for employees with the
skills and competencies required for its continued success. The Company believes
it has been successful in efforts to hire and retain the managerial, technical,
sales, and support personnel required to deliver its services and manage its
growth. One significant factor advancing Keane's ability to attract and retain
professionals is its branch office network, which allows its staff to minimize
travel time on client projects. At the same time, this network of branch offices
provides employees with broader career growth options through transfers across
the organization or into its corporate practice groups.
Keane also recognizes that it's growing share of multimillion-dollar outsourcing
engagements and its mergers and acquisitions (M&A) strategy are two significant
factors in its growth. As a result, Keane's corporate human resources
organization is directly involved in major outsourcing engagements and M&A
activities in addition to recruiting and career development functions.
The Company generally does not have employment contracts with its key employees.
None of the Company's employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement.
The Company believes that its relations with its employees are good.
7
COMPETITION
The IT services market is highly competitive and driven by continual change in
clients' business requirements and advances in technology. The Company's
competition varies by the type of service provided and by geographic markets.
Competitors typically include traditional players in the IT services industry,
including large integrators (e.g., Andersen Consulting, EDS, CSC, and IBM Global
Services); IT solutions providers (e.g., Sapient, Cambridge Technology Partners,
AMS, and Whittman-Hart); pure-play Internet solutions providers (e.g.,
Razorfish, Scient, and Viant); niche players (e.g., companies focused on
specific domain or vertical expertise); and management consulting firms (e.g.,
McKinsey and Booz Allen). Some of these competitors are larger and have greater
financial resources than the Company. In addition, clients may seek to increase
their internal IT resources to satisfy their customer software development.
The Company believes that the bases for competition in the IT services industry
include the ability to compete cost-effectively, develop strong client
relationships, generate recurring revenue, use comprehensive delivery
methodologies, and achieve organizational learning by implementing standardized
operational processes. The Company believes that it competes favorably with
respect to those factors. There can be no assurance that the Company will
continue to compete successfully with its existing competitors or will be able
to compete successfully with any new competitors.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The principal executive office of the Company is located at Ten City Square,
Boston, Massachusetts 02129, in an approximately 34,000 square foot office
building which is owned by City Square Limited Partnership. The limited
partnership is comprised of an officer of the Company, some directors and
shareholders. See Item 13 -- "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."
At December 31, 1999, the Company leased and maintained sales and support
offices in more than 50 locations in the United States and five locations in the
United Kingdom. The aggregate annual rental expense for the Company's sales and
support offices was approximately $19.4 million in 1999. The aggregate annual
rental expense for all of the Company's facilities was approximately $21.8
million in 1999. For additional information regarding the Company's lease
obligations, see Note J of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company believes that its facilities are adequate for its current needs and
that suitable additional space will be available as needed.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is involved in litigation and various legal matters, which have
arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the
ultimate resolution of any existing matter will have a material adverse effect
on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company
believes these litigation matters are without merit and intends to defend these
matters vigorously.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
A special meeting of Stockholders of the Company was held on December 2, 1999.
The Stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's 1998 Stock Incentive
Plan increasing the number of shares of Common Stock which the Company is
authorized to issue under the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan from 2,000,000 to

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS
The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, $.10 par value per share; 503,797 shares of Class B Common Stock, $.10
par value per share; and 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per
share. As of March 10, 2000, there were 69,862,446 shares of Common Stock
outstanding and held of record by approximately 60,000 stockholders; 284,987
shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding and held of record by approximately
120 stockholders; and no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.
COMMON STOCK AND CLASS B COMMON STOCK:
Voting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters
submitted to stockholders and each share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to
ten votes on all such matters. The holders of Common Stock and Class B Common
Stock vote as a single class on all actions submitted to a vote of the Company's
stockholders, except that separate class votes of the holders of Common Stock
and Class B Common Stock are required to authorize further issuance of Class B
Common Stock and certain charter amendments. Voting for directors is
non-cumulative.
As of March 10, 1999, the Class B Common Stock represented less than 1% of the
Company's outstanding equity, but had approximately 4% of the combined voting
power of the Company's outstanding Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. The
substantial voting rights of the Class B Common Stock may make the Company less
attractive as the potential target of a hostile tender offer or other proposal
to acquire the stock or business of the Company and render merger proposals more
difficult, even if such actions would be in the best interests of the holders of
the Common Stock.
Dividends and Other Distributions. The holders of Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be
declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available, except that
the Board of Directors may not declare and pay a regular quarterly cash dividend
on the shares of Class B Common Stock unless a noncumulative per share dividend
which is $.05 per share greater is paid at the same time on the shares of Common
Stock. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company,
holders of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock have the right to ratable
portions of the net assets of the Company available after the payment of all
debts and other liabilities.
Trading Markets. The Company's Common Stock is traded on the American Stock
Exchange. The Common Stock is also registered pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company furnishes to the holders of its
Common Stock and Class B Common Stock the same information and reports
concerning the Company. Shares of Class B Common Stock are not transferable by a
stockholder except for transfers (i) by gift, (ii) in the event of the death of
a stockholder, or (iii) by a trust to a person who is the grantor or a principal
beneficiary of such trust (individuals or entities receiving Class B Common
Stock pursuant to such transfers being referred to as "Permitted Transferees").
The Class B Common Stock is not listed or traded on any exchange or in any
market and no trading market exists for shares of the Class B Common Stock. The
Class B Common Stock is, however, convertible at all times, and without cost to
the stockholder, into shares of Common Stock on a share-for-share basis. Shares
of Class B Common Stock are automatically converted into an equal number of such
shares of Common Stock in connection with any transfer of such shares other than
to a Permitted Transferee. In addition, all of the outstanding shares of Class B
Common Stock are convertible into shares of Common Stock upon a majority vote of
the Board of Directors.
Future Issuance of Class B Common Stock; Retirement of Class B Common Stock Upon
Conversion into Common Stock. The Company may not issue any additional shares of
Class B Common Stock without the approval of a majority of the votes of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock voting as separate
classes. The Board of Directors may issue shares of authorized but unissued
Common Stock and Preferred Stock without further stockholder action. All shares
of Class B Common Stock converted into Common Stock are retired and may not be
reissued.
Other Matters. The holders of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock have no
preemptive rights or (except as described above) rights to convert their stock
into any other securities and are not subject to future calls or assessments by
the Company. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of Common Stock
are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of
shares of any series of Preferred Stock which the Company may designate and
issue in the future. See "Preferred Stock" below.
11
PREFERRED STOCK: The Company's Articles of Organization authorize the issuance
of up to 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share.
Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, and the
Board of Directors is authorized to determine the rights, preferences,
privileges and restrictions, including the dividend rights, conversion rights,
voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption price or prices and liquidation
preferences, of any such series of Preferred Stock, and to fix the number of
shares of any such series without any further vote or action by the
stockholders. The voting and other rights of the holders of Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the
rights of holders of any Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future.
Issuances of Preferred Stock, while providing desirable flexibility in
connection with acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect
of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a
third party from acquiring, a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the
Company. The Company has no present plans to issue any shares of Preferred
Stock.
PRICE RANGE OF COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDEND POLICY: The Company's Common Stock is
traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "KEA." The following
table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low closing prices per
share as reported by the American Stock Exchange.

The closing price of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on March
10, 2000 was $25.625.
The Company has not paid any cash dividend since June 1986. The Company
currently intends to retain all of its earnings to finance future growth and
therefore does not anticipate paying any cash dividend in the foreseeable
future. The Company's Articles of Organization restrict the ability of the Board
of Directors to declare regular quarterly dividends on the Class B Common Stock.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements. For this
purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical
fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing,
the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects" and similar expressions
are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are a number of
important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. These
factors include, without limitation, those set forth below under the caption
"Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, 1999 VS. 1998: The Company's revenue for 1999 was $1.04
billion, a 3.3% decrease from $1.08 billion in 1998. The decrease in revenue was
primarily a result of the rapid and anticipated decline in Year 2000 compliance
revenue. Year 2000 compliance revenue decreased 44.2% to $206.1 million for 1999
from $369.5 million in 1998. However, the Company's 1999 revenue in its core
Plan, Build and Manage services, excluding Year 2000 compliance, was $835.0
million, up 18.2% from $706.7 million in 1998. Plan, Build, and Manage revenue
refer to the Company's three core business lines, Business and IT Consulting,
e-Solutions, Applications Development and Management Outsourcing. The growth in
non-Y2K revenue was a result of the Company's strategic repositioning executed
during the year. This repositioning has yielded growth in important areas such
as e-Solutions, which totaled $108 million in revenue during 1999. Growth in
Keane's core Plan, Build, and Manage revenue was negatively impacted during the
second half of 1999 due to a cross-industry Y2K-related freeze among many of
Keane's clients, which deferred the start of new development projects to lower
their Y2K-related risk. Despite the Y2K freeze, Keane's 1999 Plan, Build, and
Manage revenue was up 34.0%, 21.0%, and 11.1% to $110.9 million, $331.1 million,
and $370.9 million, respectively, from 1998.
Salaries, wages, and other direct costs for 1999 were $702.8 million, or 67.5%
of revenue, compared to $696.8 million, or 64.7% of revenue for 1998, an
increase of 2.8%. This increase as a percentage of revenue is due primarily to
lower utilization of Company billable headcount, caused by the rapid decline of
Y2K revenue and the Y2K-related deferral of new projects. Due to the
extraordinary nature of expenses related to Keane's transition from Y2K and to
bring costs in closer alignment with revenues, in the Fourth Quarter of 1999,
the Company incurred a onetime restructuring charge of $13.7 million or 1.3% of
revenue. These charges are related to employee severance costs, costs associated
with asset impairments, payments to certain employees and consolidation of less
profitable business units and the closing of certain facilities. It is expected
that approximately $4.1 million, associated with severance costs and payments to
certain employees, will be paid in 2000. The remaining $2.9 million will be paid
out as branch office closures occur.
Selling, General, & Administrative ("SG&A") expenses for 1999 were $199.0
million or 19.1% of revenue, compared to $193.4 million or 18.0% of revenue in
1998, an increase of 1.1%. This increase as a percentage of revenue was
primarily attributable to the decrease in the Company's revenue and investments
the Company continued to make in the development and marketing of its core
service offerings. The Company's objective is to aggressively manage SG&A, as a
percentage of revenue, by realizing the economies of scale associated with
increasing revenue without proportionately increasing SG&A.
Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets for 1999 was $9.2 million,
or 0.9% of revenue, compared to $7.7 million, or 0.7% of revenue, in 1998. The
increase is primarily attributable to the acquisitions executed during the
current and prior year.
Interest and other expenses for 1999 totaled $1.5 million, compared to $1.2
million in 1998. Interest and dividend income for 1999 totaled $7.8 million,
compared to $5.2 million in 1998. The increase in interest and other related
income can be attributed to the increase in investments, which grew to $89.7
million at year-end 1999 from $77.5 million at year-end 1998.
Pretax income for 1999 was $122.8 million, or 11.8% of revenue, down 29.5% from
pretax income of $174.2 million, or 16.2% of revenue in 1998.
The Company's effective tax rate for 1999 was 40.5% compared to 44.7% in 1998.
The decrease is primarily attributable to the high tax rate incurred in 1998
which was impacted by non-deductible merger costs of $8.1 million and $1.7
million as a result of the conversion of Fourth Tier, Inc from cash to accrual
basis for tax reporting.
Net income and earnings per share for 1999 were $73.1 million and $1.01 per
share diluted, respectively, down 24.2% from $96.3 million and $1.33 per share
diluted, respectively, in 1998.
15
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, 1998 VS. 1997: The Company's revenue for 1998 was $1.08
billion, a 52.3% increase from $706.8 million in 1997. The increase in revenue
was a result of strong growth generated by the Company's service offerings, and
by five strategic acquisitions made during the year. The Company experienced the
largest revenue growth in Year 2000 Compliance Services and Application
Outsourcing. Year 2000 Compliance revenue increased 146.4% to $369.4 million,
Application Outsourcing revenue increased 48.8% to $155.3 million and
Application Development increased 32.8% to $130.1 million. IT Consulting
increased 48.4% to $54.0 million, primarily as a result of the acquisition of
Bricker & Associates, Inc. Help Desk revenue increased 25.5% to $49.2 million,
Health Care Services and Sales increased 22.4% to $37.1 million, Supplemental
Staffing revenue increased 13.5% to $263.9 million, and all other services
increased 6.8% to $17.2 million.
Salaries, wages, and other direct costs for 1998 were $696.8 million, or 64.7%
of revenue, compared to $469.4 million, or 66.4% of revenue for 1997, a decrease
of 1.7%. This decrease as a percentage of revenue was due to the Company's
ability to increase average billing rates by more than the increase in related
technical salary costs, as a result of the increase in strategic services work
being performed by the Company.
Selling, General, & Administrative ("SG&A") expenses for 1998 were $193.4
million or 18.0% of revenue, compared to $138.2 million or 19.5% of revenue in
1997, a decrease of 1.5% as a percentage of revenue. The Company's objective is
to continue to reduce SG&A, as a percentage of revenue, by realizing the
economies of scale associated with increasing revenue without proportionately
increasing SG&A, investing in MIS to increase productivity, and continuing to
implement cost saving programs such as national purchasing for volume purchase
discounts in such areas as travel, office supplies, and computer equipment.
Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets for 1998 was $7.7 million,
or 0.7% of revenue, compared to $14.0 million, or 2.0% of revenue, in 1997. The
decrease is primarily attributable to certain assets becoming fully amortized at
the end of 1997.
Merger costs for 1998 were $8.1 million as compared to $0 for 1997. This
increase was the result of investment banking, legal, accounting and other
professional fees associated with the acquisitions of Bricker & Associates,
Inc., Icom Systems Ltd and Fourth Tier, Inc., which were all accounted for as
poolings-of-interests.
Interest and other expenses for 1998 totaled $1.2 million, compared to $1.3
million in 1997. Interest and dividend income for 1998 totaled $5.2 million,
compared to $4.2 million in 1997. The increase in interest and other related
income was attributed to the increase in investments, which grew to $77.5
million at year-end 1998 from $50.7 million at year-end 1997.
Pretax income for 1998 was $174.2 million, or 16.2% of revenue, up 97.7% from
pretax income of $88.1 million, or 12.5% of revenue in 1997.
The Company's effective tax rate for 1998 was 44.7% compared to 41.7% in 1997.
This increase is due to $8.1 million of merger costs that are not deductible for
state and federal taxes and a one-time tax expense of $1.7 million as the result
of the requirement to convert Fourth Tier, Inc. from cash to accrual basis for
tax reporting.
Net income and earnings per share for 1998 were $96.3 million and $1.33 per
share diluted, respectively, up 87.6% and 84.7%, respectively from $51.4 million
and $.72 per share diluted, respectively, in 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: The Company's cash and investments at December
31, 1999 increased to $142.8 million from $129.2 million at December 31, 1998.
This increase was primarily attributable to net income, decrease in accounts
receivable of approximately $37.6 million, offset by decreases in accounts
payable and accrued expenses of approximately $37.6 million and payments for
acquisitions of $61.0 million. On May 26, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized the repurchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock lasting
until May 25, 2000. This repurchase program was completed during the fourth
quarter of 1999, totaling approximately $23.9 million. On February 10, 2000, the
Company announced an additional repurchase program of up to 2,000,000 shares of
Common Stock lasting until February 9, 2001.The buyback program is expected to
cost approximately $53 million. The Company maintains and has available a $20
million unsecured demand line of credit with a major Boston bank for operations
and acquisition opportunities.
16
Based on its current operating plan, the Company believes that its cash, cash
equivalents and investments on hand, cash flows from operations and current
available lines of credit will be sufficient to meet its working capital
requirements for at least the next twelve months.
IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES: Inflationary increases in costs have
not been material in recent years and, to the extent permitted by competitive
pressures, are passed on to the clients through increased billing rates. Rates
charged by the Company are based on the cost of labor and market conditions
within the industry. The Company was able to increase its billing rates over its
increases in direct labor in 1999. This is due primarily to our increase in
client strategic services in which competition is less and the quality of
services commands higher rates.
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
The "Year 2000" issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Keane's computer
equipment and software and devices with embedded technology that are time
sensitive may recognize "00" as the year 1900 rather than the Year 2000. This
could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of
Keane's operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to
perform mission critical functions like billing and time reporting. Although the
transition from 1999 to 2000 has passed and Keane is not aware of any unresolved
Year 2000 problems relating to the services provided by Keane, its internal
systems, the products developed by Keane's Healthcare Solutions Practice or
third party products used by Keane in its Healthcare Solutions Practice, it is
possible that Year 2000 problems could be discerned in the future.
Keane generally delivers services and not products to its customers. The Company
believes that the services provided by its professionals to its customers are
provided in a Year 2000 compliant manner.
Keane's Healthcare Solutions Practice develops, markets, and sells software
products. In 1999, Keane notified its customers that it did not intend to offer
Year 2000 compliant versions or patches for certain of its products that were
known to be Year 2000 non-compliant. Instead, Keane encouraged its clients to
migrate to new products offered by Keane. Keane believes that it may have had an
immaterial loss of customers in the Healthcare Solution Practice due to clients
who failed to migrate to its newer products.
In addition to its own products, Keane markets certain third party software
products through its Healthcare Solutions Practice. During 1999, the Company
received assurances from substantially all of the vendors of these products that
they are Year 2000 compliant. Customer claims regarding Year 2000 issues related
to these products were immaterial.
In prior years, the Company discussed the nature and progress of its plans to
become Year 2000 ready. In late 1999, the Company completed its remediation and
testing of systems. As a result of those planning and implementation efforts,
the Company experienced no significant disruptions in mission critical
information technology and non-information technology systems and believes those
systems successfully responded to the Year 2000 date change. The Company
incurred approximately $1,635,000 during 1999 in connection with remediating its
systems. The Company is not aware of any material problems resulting from Year
2000 issues, either with its products, its internal systems, or the products and
services of third parties. The Company will continue to monitor its mission
critical computer applications and those of its suppliers and vendors throughout
the Year 2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 matters that may arise are
addresses promptly.
Among the services that Keane provided in 1999 was the assessment, planning,
migration/remediation, and testing for Year 2000 compliance. Keane has devoted
significant resources to, and earned significant revenue from, providing
services to address the Year 2000 problem. The market for these services
declined significantly during 1999 and is expected to further diminish and
disappear after the first quarter of 2000. Further, Keane's services addressing
the Year 2000 problem involve key aspects of its client's computer systems. A
failure in a client's system could result in a claim for substantial damages
against Keane, regardless of Keane's responsibility for the failure. Keane could
incur substantial costs in connection with any resulting litigation, regardless
of the outcome.
The total cost of Keane's Year 2000 compliance activities was not material to
its business, results of operations and financial condition. While Keane
believes that it has completed its Year 2000 readiness process, Keane cannot
assure you that it has identified and remedied all significant Year 2000
problems, that Keane will not incur significant additional time and expense or
that such problems will not harm Keane's business.
17
CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS: The following important factors,
among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those
indicated by forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K
and presented elsewhere by management from time to time.
Fluctuations in Operating Results. Keane has experienced and expects to continue
to experience fluctuations in its quarterly results. Keane's gross margins vary
based on a variety of factors including employee utilization rates and the
number and type of services performed by Keane during a particular period. A
variety of factors influence Keane's revenue in a particular quarter, including:
o general economic conditions which may influence investment decisions or
cause downsizing;
o the number and requirements of client engagements;
o employee utilization rates;
o changes in the rates Keane can charge clients for services;
o acquisitions; and
o other factors, many of which are beyond Keane's control.
A significant portion of Keane's expenses does not vary relative to revenue. As
a result, if revenue in a particular quarter does not meet expectations, Keane's
operating results could be materially adversely affected, which in turn may have
a material adverse impact on the market price of Keane common stock. In
addition, many of Keane's engagements are terminable without client penalty. An
unanticipated termination of a major project could result in an increase in
underutilized employees and a decrease in revenue and profits.
Risks Relating to Acquisitions. In the past five years, Keane has grown
significantly through acquisitions. Since January 1, 1999, Keane has completed
the acquisitions of Emergent Corporation in San Mateo, California, Amherst
Consulting Group, Inc, in Boston, Massachusetts, Advanced Solutions Inc. in New
York, New York, Anstec, Inc. of Maclean, Virginia, First Coast Systems, Inc. of
Jacksonville, Florida, Jamison/Gold, LLC, of Marina Del Ray, California and
Parallax Solutions Limited, of Birmingham, England. Keane's future growth may be
based in part on selected acquisitions. At any given time, Keane may be in
various stages of considering such opportunities. Keane can provide no
assurances that it will be able to find and identify desirable acquisition
targets or that it will be successful in entering into a definitive agreement
with any one target. Also, even if a definitive agreement is reached, there is
no assurance that any future acquisition will be completed.
Keane typically anticipates that each acquisition will bring certain benefits,
such as an increase in revenue. Prior to completing an acquisition, however, it
is difficult to determine if such benefits can actually be realized.
Accordingly, there is a risk that an acquired company may not achieve an
increase in revenue or other benefits for Keane. In addition, an acquisition may
result in unexpected costs and expenses. Any of these events could have a
material adverse effect on Keane's business, financial condition and results of
operations.
The process of integrating acquired companies into Keane's existing business may
also result in unforeseen difficulties. Unforeseen operating difficulties may
absorb significant management attention which Keane might otherwise devote to
its existing business. Also, the process may require significant financial
resources that Keane might otherwise allocate to other activities, including the
ongoing development or expansion of Keane's existing operations. Finally, future
acquisition could result in Keane having to incur additional debt and/or
contingent liabilities. All of these possibilities might have a material adverse
effect on Keane's business, financial condition and result of operations.
Dependence on Personnel. Keane believes that its future success will depend in
large part on its ability to continue to attract and retain highly skilled
technical and management personnel. The competition for such personnel is
intense. Keane may not succeed in attracting and retaining the personnel
necessary to develop its business. If Keane does not, its business, financial
condition and result of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Highly Competitive Market. The market for Keane's services is highly
competitive. The technology for custom software services can change rapidly. The
market is fragmented, and no company holds a dominant position. Consequently,
Keane's
18
competition for client assignments and experienced personnel varies
significantly from city to city and by the type of service provided. Some of
Keane's competitors are larger and have greater technical, financial and
marketing resources and greater name recognition in the markets they serve than
does Keane. In addition, clients may elect to increase their internal
information systems resources to satisfy their custom software development
needs.
Keane believes that in order to compete successfully in the software services
industry it must be able to:
o compete cost-effectively;
o develop strong client relationships;
o generate recurring revenues;
o utilize comprehensive delivery methodologies; and
o achieve organizational learning by implementing standard operational
processes.
In the healthcare software systems market, Keane competes with some companies
that are larger in the healthcare market and have greater financial resources
than Keane. Keane believes that significant competitive factors in the
healthcare software systems market include size and demonstrated ability to
provide service to targeted healthcare markets.
Keane may not be able to compete successfully against current or future
competitors. In addition, competitive pressures faced by Keane may materially
adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Associated with Provision of Year 2000 Services. The Company's business
may suffer as a result of defects to Year 2000 compliance issues that have not
yet been detected. We have not had any independent verification of our year 2000
compliance efforts. We have not procured any Year 2000 specific insurance or
made any contingency plans to address any undetected year 2000 risks.
Among the services that Keane provided in 1999 was the assessment, planning,
migration/remediation, and testing for Year 2000 compliance. Keane has devoted
significant resources to, and earned significant revenue from, providing
services to address the Year 2000 problem. The market for these services
declined significantly during 1999 and is expected to further diminish and
disappear after the first quarter of 2000. Further, Keane's services addressing
the Year 2000 problem involve key aspects of its client's computer systems. A
failure in a client's system could result in a claim for substantial damages
against Keane, regardless of Keane's responsibility for the failure. Keane could
incur substantial costs in connection with any resulting litigation, regardless
of the outcome.
International Operations. In August 1998, Keane commenced operations in the
United Kingdom with its acquisition of Icom Systems Ltd, now known as Keane
Limited. Keane's international operations will be subject to political and
economic uncertainties, currency exchange rate fluctuations, foreign exchange
restrictions, changes in taxation and other difficulties in managing operations
overseas. Keane may not be successful in its international operations.
As a result of these and other factors, the Company's past financial performance
should not be relied on as an indication of future performance. Keane believes
that period to period comparisons of its financial results are not necessarily
meaningful and it expects that results of operations may fluctuate from period
to period in the future.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company does not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments or
purchasing hedging instruments or "other than trading" instruments that are
likely to expose the Company to market risk, whether interest rate, foreign
currency exchange, and commodity price or equity price risk. The Company has not
purchased options or entered into swaps or forward or futures contracts. The
Company's primary market risk exposure is that of interest rate risk on its
investments, which would affect the carrying value of those investments.

KEANE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997
(All amounts in thousands unless stated otherwise and except for share and per
share amounts)
A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Keane, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
As described in Note L, during 1998 the Company completed five acquisitions.
Four of the acquisitions were accounted for as poolings-of-interests and one was
accounted for as a purchase. The accompanying financial statements and notes
have been restated for all periods presented for the three material
pooling-of-interests acquisitions.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS: Keane is a leading provider of e-business, Information
Technology (IT), and consulting services. The Company divides its business into
three main lines: Business and IT Consulting, e-Solutions (including its
e-architecture, applications development and integration services), and
Applications Development and Management Outsourcing.
Keane's clients consist primarily of Fortune 1000 organizations across every
major industry, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. The Company
services clients through branch office operations in major markets of the United
States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. These offices are supported by
centralized practices representing Keane's core services and key competencies.
This delivery structure allows the Company to provide clients with world-class
capabilities of the entire Company on a responsive and cost-effective local
level.
REVENUE RECOGNITION: The Company provides system design, implementation and
support services under fixed price and time and materials contracts. For fixed
price contracts, revenue is recorded on the basis of the estimated percentage of
completion of services rendered. Losses, if any, on fixed price contracts are
recognized when the loss is determined. For time and materials contracts,
revenue is recorded at contractually agreed upon rates as the costs are
incurred. Revenues for software application sales are recognized on the basis of
customer acceptance over the period of software implementation.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: For the Company's subsidiaries in Canada and
England, the Canadian dollar and British pound, respectively, are the functional
currencies. All assets and liabilities of the Company's Canadian and English
subsidiaries are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the
period. Income and expenses are translated at rates that approximate those in
effect on transaction dates. The translation differences are charged or credited
directly to the translation adjustment account included as part of stockholders'
equity. Realized foreign exchange gains and losses are included in other income
(expense).
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase.
Cash equivalents are currently designated as available-for-sale. Cash
equivalents at December 31, 1999 included investments in commercial paper ($24.9
million), municipal bonds ($.9 million) and money market funds ($4.8 million).
Cash equivalents at December 31, 1998 included investments in commercial paper
($41.2 million), municipal bonds ($1.0 million) and money market funds ($1.1
million).
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: The amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets
for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable
approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. Based on the
borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar
terms and maturities, the fair value of the company's debt obligations
approximates their carrying value. Financial instruments that potentially
subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of
investments and trade receivables. The Company's cash, cash equivalents and
investments are held with financial institutions with high credit standings. The
27
Company's customer base consists of geographically disperse customers in several
different industries, therefore concentration of credit risk with respect to
trade receivables is not considered significant.
INVESTMENTS: Investments with maturities between three and twelve months at time
of purchase are considered short-term investments. Investments are stated at
fair value as reported by the investment custodian. The Company determines the
appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the time of purchase
and re-evaluates such designations as of each balance sheet date. Investments
are currently designated as available-for-sale, and as such, unrealized gains
and losses are reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. As of
December 31, 1999, the Company's investments experienced decline in market value
of $2.2 million, which has been reflected in the statement of stockholder's
equity. At December 31, 1998, the market value of the investments approximated
cost. Realized gains and losses, as well as interest, dividends and capital
gain/loss distributions on all securities, are included in earnings.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Repair and
maintenance costs are charged to expense. Depreciation is computed on a
straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 25 to 40 years for buildings
and improvements, and 2 to 5 years for office equipment, computer equipment and
software. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated
useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease. Upon disposition, the
cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any
gain or loss is included in income.
GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Intangible assets consist principally of
goodwill and acquired customer-based intangibles, noncompetition agreements, and
software initially recorded at fair value. Intangibles are amortized on a
straight-line basis over 14 or 15 years for goodwill and 3 to 15 years for other
intangibles. At each reporting date, management assesses whether there has been
a permanent impairment in the value of its long-term assets and the amount of
such impairment by comparing anticipated undiscounted future operating income
from acquired business units with the carrying value of the related goodwill.
The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include
current operating results, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of
demand, competition and other economic factors. Accumulated amortization at
December 31, 1998 and 1999 was $40.6 million and $44.7 million, respectively.
INCOME TAXES: The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method
which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in
which the differences are expected to reverse.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,"
Reporting Comprehensive Income", establishes rules for the reporting and display
of comprehensive income and its components. Components of comprehensive income
include net income and certain transactions that have generally been reported in
the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity. Other comprehensive income
is comprised of net income, currency translation adjustments and
available-for-sale securities valuation adjustments. At December 31, 1998, the
only component of accumulated other comprehensive income was foreign currency
translation adjustment of $.8 million. At December 31, 1999, accumulated other
comprehensive income was comprised of foreign currency translation adjustment of
$.8 million and securities valuation adjustment of $1.3 million, net of tax.
USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION: The Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information". The Company offers an integrated mix of end-to-end
business solutions, such as Business and IT consulting (Plan), e-Solutions
including e-architecture, online branding, development and integration (Build),
and Application Development and Management Outsourcing (Manage). Approximately
96% of the Company's revenue was derived from these offerings, with the balance
from the healthcare industry. Effectively, the Company operates in one
reportable segment.
28
B. INVESTMENTS
At December 31, 1999, the Company's investments included obligations of the U.S.
Government ($32.9 million), municipal bonds ($7.3 million), corporate pass
through ($16.9 million), corporate bonds ($29.2 million) and commercial paper
($3.5 million). At December 31, 1998, the Company's investments included
obligations of the U.S. government ($33.6 million), municipal bonds ($10.9),
corporate pass through ($12.8 million) and corporate bonds ($20.2 million).
There was no gain or loss, based on a specific identification basis, realized on
the sale of available for sale securities during the years ended December 31,
1997, 1998 and 1999.

I. BENEFIT PLANS
STOCK OPTION PLANS: The Company has three stock-based compensation plans, which
are described below. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and has continued to apply APB
Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its plans. Had
compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation plans been
determined based on the fair value at the grant dates as calculated in
accordance with SFAS 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share for
the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 would have been reduced to the
pro forma amounts indicated below:
Years Ended December 31,
1997 1998 1999
---------------------------------------
(IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
Net income - as reported $ 51,371 $ 96,349 $ 73,074
Net income - pro forma 49,386 91,020 61,811
Net income per share - as reported (diluted) .72 1.33 1.01
Net income per share - pro forma (diluted) .69 1.26 .85
The effects of applying SFAS 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not likely to
be representative of effects on reported net income for future years
The fair market value of each stock option is estimated, assuming no expected
dividends with the following weighted-average assumptions:
Years Ended December 31,
1997 1998 1999
----------------------------------
Expected life (years) 4.0 4.0 4.0
Expected stock price volatility 41% 47% 96%
Risk-free interest rate 6.24% 4.83% 5.27%
The 1992 Stock Option Plan provides for grants of stock options for up to
3,600,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to employees, officers and
directors of, and consultants and advisors to, the Company. Generally, options
expire five years from the date of grant, require a purchase price of not less
than 100% of the fair market value of the stock as of the date of grant, and are
exercisable at such time or times as the Board of Directors in each case
determines. The Company may grant options that are intended to qualify as
incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code
("incentive stock options") or nonstatutory options not intended to qualify as
incentive stock options.
The 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, amended in December 1999, provides for grants of
stock options for up to 7,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to
employees, officers and directors of, and consultants and advisors to, the
Company. Generally, options expire five years from the date of grant, require a
purchase price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock as of
the date of grant, and are exercisable at such time or times as the Board of
Directors in each case determines. The Company may grant options that are
intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code ("incentive stock options") or nonstatutory options, restricted
stock awards and other stock-based awards, including the grant of shares based
upon certain conditions not intended to qualify as incentive stock options.
The weighted-average fair value of options granted under both Plans during the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 was $8.40, $14.73 and $14.39,
respectively.

STOCK PURCHASE PLANS: The Company's 1983 Restricted Stock Purchase Plan provides
for grants of 2,025,000 shares of Common Stock to be made to key employees at
the discretion of the compensation committee of the Board of Directors. No
grants were issued during 1996 through 1999. At December 31, 1999, 1,377,760
shares remained available for future grants. Restrictions on the sale or
transfer of shares lapse three years after the date of grant. As grants are
issued, deferred compensation equivalent to the market value at the date of
grant, less the $.10 per share of the purchase price, is amortized to
compensation expense over the three-year vesting period. The amount of
amortization for 1997 was $47. There was no amortization in 1998 and 1999.
The Company's 1992 Employee Stock Purchase Plan provides for the purchase of
2,550,000 shares of Common Stock by qualifying employees at a purchase price of
85% of the market value of the stock on the purchase date. During 1997, 1998 and
1999, participants in this plan purchased 136,700, 72,832 and 310,051 shares,
respectively. Shares available for future purchases totaled 923,981 at December
31, 1999.
32
INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLANS: During 1988, the Company established incentive
compensation plans for certain officers and selected employees. Payments under
the plans are based on actual performance compared to stated plan objectives.
Compensation expense under the plans in 1997, 1998 and 1999 approximated $6,661,
$9,505 and $8,336, respectively.
DEFERRED SAVINGS AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN: During 1984, the Company established a
deferred savings and profit sharing plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code. The plan enables eligible employees to reduce their taxable income
by contributing up to 15% of their salary to the plan. The Company makes
discretionary contributions to the plan based on a percentage of contributions
made by the eligible employees and profits of the Company. The Company's
contributions vest after the employee has completed 42 months of service and for
1997, 1998 and 1999 amounted to approximately $3,156, $4,818 and $5,065,
respectively.
J. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company's corporate offices are located in Boston, Massachusetts. The
building is leased from a partnership in which an officer, some directors, and
shareholders of the Company are limited partners. The lease is for a term of
twenty years at annual rentals considered to be at prevailing market rates and
lasting through 2006. The Company is also required to pay specified percentages
of annual increases in real estate taxes and operating expenses.
The Company leases additional office space and apartments under operating
leases, some of which may be renewed for periods up to five years, subject to
increased rentals. Rental expense for all of the Company's facilities amounted
to approximately $13.0 million in 1997, $16.1 million in 1998 and $21.8 million
in 1999. The Company is committed to minimum annual rental payments under all
leases of approximately $18.9 million in 2000, $18.1 million in 2001, $15.5

The Company is involved in litigation and various legal matters, which have
arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the

on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company
believes these litigation matters are without merit and intends to defend these
matters vigorously.
