(the “Company”), an Indiana corporation formed in 1986, develops, markets, licenses and supports comprehensive enterprise business systems for mid-market manufacturers located primarily in the United States. The Company is dependent upon its principal product, the Made2Manage® Enterprise Business System, which provides fully integrated solutions that manage a manufacturer’s entire business environment, from selling and design, to manufacturing and distribution, finance and human resources, and customer service and support. This comprehensive enterprise business system features Made2Manage Enterprise Resource Planning (“M2M™ ERP”), Made2Manage Supply Chain Management (“M2M SCM”), Made2Manage Customer Relationship Management (“M2M CRM”), Made2Manage Business Intelligence (“M2M BI”), Made2Manage Enterprise Portal (“M2M VIP”) and Made2Manage Enterprise Integration (“M2M Link”).

2.     Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2001 Annual Report to Shareholders and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. In management’s opinion, this information has been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each period presented.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2002 presentation.

3.     Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistent with the requirements of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (“SAB 101”), Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, Statement of Position No. 97-2 (“SoP 97-2”), Software Revenue Recognition, and other applicable revenue recognition guidance and interpretations. In general, the Company records revenue when it is realized, or realizable, and earned. Revenues from software licenses and hardware are recognized upon shipment, delivery or customer acceptance, based upon the substance of the arrangement or as defined in the sales agreement provided there are no significant remaining vendor obligations to be fulfilled and collectability is reasonably assured. Software revenues are generated from licensing software to new customers and from licensing additional users and new applications to existing customers. Hardware revenues are generated primarily from the sale of bar-coding and data collection equipment used in connection with the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System, and constitute a relatively small component of total revenues.




– 6 –

The Company’s sales arrangements typically include services in addition to software and hardware. Service revenues are generated from annual fees paid by customers to receive support services and software upgrades and also from implementation, education and consulting services. For sales arrangements that include bundled software, hardware and services, the Company accounts for any undelivered service offering as a separate element of a multiple-element arrangement. These services are usually not essential to the functionality of the software and hardware. Amounts deferred for services are determined based upon vendor-specific objective evidence of the fair value of the elements as prescribed in SoP 97-2. Support revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. Revenues from technical training and consulting services are recognized as provided to customers. If the services are essential to the functionality of the software and hardware, revenue from the software and hardware components is deferred until the essential services are complete.

Subscription-based offerings include M2M Express, M2M VIP and M2M University. The M2M Express thin client option is designed to provide mid-market manufacturing companies access to the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System via the Internet through a hosted application service provider. The M2M VIP enterprise portal offers manufacturing companies a range of collaborative opportunities with their customers, sales channels and suppliers. M2M University provides flexible, comprehensive educational opportunities to customers via the Web and also through traditional classroom training. Subscription revenues are recognized ratably over the subscription period.

4.     Income Tax Benefit

From 1999 and through 2001, the Company sustained cumulative tax operating losses totaling $9 million, inclusive of two significant charges totaling $4.5 million related to the write-down and amortization of purchased technology assets and a restructuring charge. Those losses had given rise to deferred tax assets of $3.4 million. Although substantial loss carryforwards do not begin to expire until 2018, current economic conditions make it difficult to predict full recoverability of those tax assets in a period comparable to the period over which they originated. Therefore, in the fourth quarter of 2001 a valuation allowance was recorded against the $3.4 million of deferred tax assets to reflect that uncertainty. Furthermore, the Company has not and does not anticipate recording significant tax charges or benefits in 2002 due to this charge.

5.     Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The components of other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows (in thousands):
                                                    Three Months Ended       Six Months Ended

6.     Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is determined in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (“SFAS 128”), and is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted EPS is similar to basic, except that the weighted-average number of shares outstanding includes the impact of common equivalent shares. Diluted common equivalent shares consist of stock options (using the treasury stock method) as prescribed by SFAS 128. Common equivalent shares are included in the diluted EPS calculation when dilutive. Under the treasury stock method, the assumed proceeds from the exercise of stock options are applied solely to the repurchase of common stock.

7.     Restructuring

During the first quarter of 2001, management approved a restructuring plan designed to align the Company’s operations with the current technological and economic environment. Elements of the restructuring plan included (1) facilities rationalization as a result of increased market acceptance of the Company’s online education offerings, (2) cost reductions associated with M2M VIP after the significant initial investment made in 2000 and (3) 16 employee separations across most functional areas of the Company. In connection with the restructuring, the Company recorded a $1.6 million pre-tax charge comprised of restructuring liabilities of $811,000, of which $478,000 was paid as of June 30, 2002, and related asset impairments of $781,000. The remaining restructuring liability of $333,000 is recorded as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet and represents the Company’s best estimate of non-recoverable costs and expenses associated with sublet facilities and guaranteed future royalty payments related to an impaired asset. The total $1.6 million pre-tax charge in the first quarter of 2001 was recorded as $640,000 in costs of revenues and $952,000 in operating expenses.

8.     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (“SFAS 142”), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002. SFAS 142 provides guidance on the financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets upon their initial acquisition and also subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS 142 states that an intangible asset with a finite useful life should be amortized over that life. Goodwill and an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should not be amortized; however, they should be tested for impairment at least annually.

At December 31, 2001, the balance of the Company’s goodwill assets was $186,000. In accordance with the requirements of SFAS 142, the Company stopped amortizing its goodwill asset effective January 1, 2002. Prior to that, the amortization of goodwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, was $13,000 and $52,000, respectively. As required by the adoption of SFAS 142, the Company employed the transitional goodwill impairment test and determined that there is no impairment loss of its goodwill asset.

The Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-14 (“EITF 01-14”), Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred, in the first quarter of 2002. EITF 01-14 states that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred should be characterized as revenue in the income statement versus as a reduction of expenses incurred. As required by the adoption of EITF 01-14, the Company has reclassified the reimbursements of out-of-pocket expenses in prior periods from a reduction of cost of services to services revenue in the comparative condensed consolidated financial statements.

Comparison of Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 and 2001

Revenues

Revenues are derived from software licenses, service and support fees and hardware sales. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, total revenues decreased by $296,000, or 3.4%, to $8.5 million from $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, total revenues decreased by $1.5 million, or 8.4%, to $15.9 million from $17.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The decline in total revenues for both the quarter and the first half of the year resulted from a decline in software license revenues offset in part by continued growth in our service revenues. We have not historically recognized significant annual revenues from any single customer.

Software Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, software license revenues decreased by $634,000, or 16.9%, to $3.1 million from $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Software revenues constituted 36.7% and 42.7% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, software license revenues decreased by $2.5 million, or 33.0%, to $5.1 million from $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Software revenues constituted 32.0% and 43.8% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The decline in software license revenues largely reflected delayed spending by prospective customers due to the slow economy.

Service Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, service revenues increased by $416,000, or 8.7%, to $5.2 million from $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001. These revenues constituted 61.5% and 54.7% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, service revenues increased by $1.2 million, or 12.5%, to $10.5 million from $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Service revenues constituted 66.1% and 53.7% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The growth in service revenues was primarily driven by our subscription-based support and education services due to an expanding installed base of customers.

Hardware Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002, hardware revenues decreased by $78,000, or 34.1%, to $151,000 from $229,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. These revenues constituted 1.8% and 2.6% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, hardware revenues decreased by $124,000, or 28.6%, to $309,000 from $433,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Hardware revenues constituted 1.9% and 2.5% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Our sales of hardware equipment are limited to bar-coding and data collection equipment necessary to utilize certain features of the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System and typically move with software revenues.

International Revenues. International revenues from our operations in the United Kingdom have historically represented less than 1% of our total revenues. There were no new system sales in the first six months of 2002 as compared to sales of $63,000 in the first six months of 2001.

Costs of Revenues

Costs of Software Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of software revenues totaled $533,000 and $767,000, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 82.9% and 79.5%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of software revenues totaled $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 81.1% and 80.5%, respectively. The increase in software profit margins was due to some extent to a lower proportion of software revenues being generated from third party products, which carry a higher cost than our proprietary products. The mix of sales from third party products versus our proprietary products was 15% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002 as compared to 16% in the second quarter and first six months of 2001. Additionally, there was a higher mix of new system sales sold by our direct sales force, which have lower discounts than sales through our value added resellers.

Costs of Service Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of service revenues totaled $2.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 57.5% and 49.5%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of service revenues totaled $4.3 million and $4.9 million, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 59.1% and 47.7%, respectively. The improvement in service profit margins was attributable to a combination of continued growth in our service revenues and a reduction in the costs to deliver those services through the use of technology. Some of these cost efficiencies are the result of the restructuring plan implemented during the first quarter of 2001. We have continued to advance our use of technology to reduce costs in all areas of our business.

Costs of Hardware Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of hardware revenues totaled $107,000 and $170,000, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 29.1% and 25.8%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, costs of hardware revenues totaled $220,000 and $319,000, respectively, resulting in gross profit margins of 28.8% and 26.3%, respectively.

Restructuring Charge. During the first quarter of 2001, management approved a restructuring plan designed to align our operations with the current technological and economic environment. Elements of the restructuring plan included (1) facilities rationalization as a result of increased market acceptance of our online education offerings, (2) cost reductions associated with M2M VIP after the significant initial investment made in 2000 and (3) 16 employee separations across most functional areas of the company. In connection with the restructuring, we recorded a $1.6 million pre-tax charge comprised of restructuring liabilities of $811,000, of which $478,000 was paid as of June 30, 2002, and related asset impairments of $781,000. The remaining restructuring liability of $333,000 is recorded as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet and represents our best estimate of non-recoverable costs and expenses associated with sublet facilities and guaranteed future royalty payments related to an impaired asset. The total $1.6 million pre-tax charge in the first quarter of 2001 was recorded as $640,000 in costs of revenues and $952,000 in operating expenses.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing Expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, sales and marketing expenses were $3.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, representing 35.9% and 34.8% of total revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, sales and marketing expenses were $5.9 million and $6.6 million, respectively, representing 37.4% and 38.0% of total revenues, respectively. The reduction in sales and marketing expenses was primarily related to lower sales commissions due to the decline in software revenues.

Product Development Expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, product development expenses were $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, representing 16.0% and 17.3% of total revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, product development expenses were $2.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively, representing 16.7% and 18.5% of total revenues, respectively. The decrease in development expenses was largely attributable to the restructuring plan implemented during the first quarter of 2001, much of which related to e-commerce initiatives. We did not capitalize any software development costs during these periods, since the capitalizable portion was not significant.

General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, general and administrative expenses were substantially flat at $1.2 million. As a percentage of total revenues, these expenses were 13.8% and 14.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, general and administrative expenses were $2.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, representing 13.7% and 14.1% of total revenues, respectively. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was due in part to reduced bad debt expense resulting from our continued focus on credit and collection efforts. The success of these efforts was also reflected in improved average days sales outstanding of 59 days at June 30, 2002 as compared to 79 days at June 30, 2001.




– 12 –

Other Income, Net

For the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, other income, net was $75,000 and $142,000, respectively, representing 0.9% and 1.6% of total revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, other income, net was $156,000 and $305,000, respectively, representing 1.0% and 1.8% of total revenues, respectively. The decrease in other income was due primarily to lower interest rates on invested securities.

Income Tax Benefit

From 1999 and through 2001, we sustained cumulative tax operating losses totaling $9 million, inclusive of two significant charges totaling $4.5 million related to the write-down and amortization of purchased technology assets and a restructuring charge. Those losses had given rise to deferred tax assets of $3.4 million. Although substantial loss carryforwards do not begin to expire until 2018, current economic conditions make it difficult to predict full recoverability of those tax assets in a period comparable to the period over which they originated. Therefore, in the fourth quarter of 2001 a valuation allowance was recorded against the $3.4 million of deferred tax assets to reflect that uncertainty. Furthermore, we have not and do not anticipate recording significant tax charges or benefits in 2002 due to this charge.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have funded our operations primarily through equity capital and cash generated from operations. As of June 30, 2002, we had $16 million of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, reflecting positive cash flow of $1 million for the first six months of 2002, which was comparable to the first six months of 2001. The cash flow was generated primarily from operations for both 2002 and 2001.

At June 30, 2002, we had working capital of $10.7 million. Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, were $5.7 million and $6.8 million at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, which translated into an average days sales outstanding of 59 days and 71 days, respectively. Deferred revenue, which principally relates to support agreements and contracted services, decreased to $9.7 million at June 30, 2002, from $10.5 million at December 31, 2001. The decreases in both accounts receivable and deferred revenue were associated with lower new system sales in the first half of 2002 as compared to the last half of 2001.

We believe that cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements at least through the next 12 months.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (“SFAS 142”), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002. SFAS 142 provides guidance on the financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets upon their initial acquisition and also subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS 142 states that an intangible asset with a finite useful life should be amortized over that life. Goodwill and an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should not be amortized; however, they should be tested for impairment at least annually.

At December 31, 2001, the balance of our goodwill asset was $186,000. In accordance with the requirements of SFAS 142, we stopped amortizing our goodwill asset effective January 1, 2002. Prior to that, the amortization of goodwill for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, was $13,000 and $52,000, respectively. As required by the adoption of SFAS 142, we employed the transitional goodwill impairment test and determined that there is no impairment loss of our goodwill asset.




– 13 –

We adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-14 (“EITF 01-14”), Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred, in the first quarter of 2002. EITF 01-14 states that reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred should be characterized as revenue in the income statement versus as a reduction of expenses incurred. As required by the adoption of EITF 01-14, we have reclassified the reimbursements of out-of-pocket expenses in prior periods from a reduction of cost of services to services revenue in the comparative condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145 (“SFAS 145”), Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. SFAS 145 rescinds Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 4 (“SFAS 4”), Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and the amendment to SFAS 4, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 64 (“SFAS 64”), Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. SFAS 145 also rescinds Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 44 ("SFAS 44"), Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers. SFAS 145 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 ("SFAS 13"), Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. SFAS 145 also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The provisions of SFAS 145 shall be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. We do not expect this standard to have any material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 (“SFAS 146”), Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS 146 addresses the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS 146 supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring) and requires liabilities associated with exit and disposal activities to be expensed as incurred. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities of the Company that are initiated after December 31, 2002. We do not expect this standard to have any material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Business Environment and Risk Factors

In addition to other information contained in this report, the following factors could affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from those achieved in the past or expressed in our forward-looking statements.

Fluctuations of Quarterly Operating Results; Seasonality

We have experienced in the past, and expect to experience in the future, significant fluctuations in quarterly operating results. A substantial portion of our revenues in each quarter is from software licenses signed and product shipped in that quarter, and such revenues historically have been recorded largely in the third month of the quarter, with a concentration in the last week of that third month. Accordingly, our quarterly results of operations are difficult to predict, and delays in closings of sales near the end of a quarter or product delivery could cause quarterly revenues and, to a greater degree, net income to fall substantially short of anticipated levels. In addition, we have experienced a seasonal pattern in our operating results, with the fourth quarter typically having the highest total revenues and operating income and the first quarter having historically reported lower revenues and operating income compared to the fourth quarter of the preceding year.




– 14 –

Other factors, many of which are beyond our control, that may contribute to fluctuations in quarterly operating results include the size of individual orders, the timing of product introductions or enhancements by us and our competitors, competition and pricing in the manufacturing software industry, market acceptance of new products, reduction in demand for existing products, the shortening of product life cycles as a result of new product introductions by us or our competitors, product quality problems, personnel changes, conditions or events in the manufacturing industry, and general economic conditions.

The sales cycle for the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System typically ranges from three to nine months. However, license signing may be delayed for a number of reasons outside of our control. Since software is generally shipped as orders are received, we have historically operated without significant backlog.

Because our operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels and a high percentage of our expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, small variations in the timing of revenue recognition can cause a significant fluctuation in operating results from quarter to quarter and may result in unanticipated quarterly earnings shortfalls or losses. In addition, we may increase operating expenses in anticipation of continued growth and to fund expanded product development efforts. To the extent such expenses precede, or are not subsequently followed by, increased revenues, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Product and Market Concentration

Our revenues are currently derived from licenses of the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System and related services and third party software and hardware products. In the near term, the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System and related services are expected to continue to account for the majority of our revenues. Accordingly, any event that adversely affects the sale of the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System, such as competition from other products, significant quality problems, negative publicity or evaluation, reduced market acceptance of, or obsolescence of the hardware platforms on, or software environments in which the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System operates, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, as our sales of third party software and hardware products have increased, incompatibility with those products could also have a material adverse effect.

Our business depends substantially upon the software expenditures of mid-market manufacturers, which in part depend upon the demand for such manufacturers’ products. An economic slow-down or other adverse event affecting manufacturing industries in our target regions could impact such demand, causing manufacturers in our target market to curtail or postpone capital expenditures for business information systems. Any adverse change in the amount or timing of software expenditures by our target customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Third-party Technologies

The Made2Manage Enterprise Business System uses a variety of third-party technologies, including operating systems, tools and other applications developed and supported by Microsoft Corporation. The Made2Manage Enterprise Business System relies heavily on Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft SQL Server. Other Microsoft programming tools and applications used by the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System include VBA, ActiveX, OLE, ODBC, OLEDB, MSMQ, and Internet Information Server. There can be no assurance that Microsoft Corporation will continue to support the operating systems, tools and other applications utilized by the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System or that they will continue to be widely accepted in our target market. Additionally, we use Visual Objects from Computer Associates and certain optimization software from ILOG Inc.




– 15 –

We resell various third-party products, including products from Microsoft, Powerway, Best Software, Concord Business Systems, and ADS Inc., and bar code hardware and software. There can be no assurance that these third-party vendors will continue to support these technologies or that these technologies will retain their level of acceptance among manufacturers in our target market. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Product Development and Rapid Technological Change

Our growth and future financial performance depend in part upon our ability to enhance existing applications and to develop and introduce new applications to incorporate technological advances that satisfy customer requirements or expectations. As a result of the complexities inherent in product development, there can be no assurance that either improvements to the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System or applications that we develop in the future will be delivered on a timely basis or ultimately accepted in the market. Any failure by us to anticipate or respond adequately to technological developments or end-user requirements, or any significant delays in product development or introduction, could damage our competitive position and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Internet and Potential for Subscription Revenue Business Model

We believe the Internet is changing the way businesses operate and therefore the software needs of our customers. We believe our customers will increasingly require e-business applications and software solutions that will enable them to engage in commerce or service over the Internet. If we are unable to respond to emerging industry standards and technological changes, we may not be able to deliver products and services that meet our customers’ changing needs. If we are not successful in addressing these changing needs, our products may become obsolete and our financial results may be materially and adversely impacted.

Furthermore, advances in Internet and e-commerce applications may lead the enterprise business system market to rapid acceptance of Application Service Provider (“ASP”), a hosted method of delivering business system solutions. The ASP method of delivery uses a subscription revenue model, and although subscriptions could improve predictability of future revenue, it delays revenue recognition and cash collections as compared to the current method. Therefore, if there is a rapid change to the ASP business model, our near term financial results and financial position may be materially and adversely impacted.

Dependence on Key Personnel

Our success depends to a significant extent upon a number of key employees, including members of senior management. No employee is subject to an employment contract. Our ability to implement business strategy is substantially dependent on our ability to attract, on a timely basis, and retain skilled personnel, especially sales, service, support and development personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we compete for such personnel with numerous companies, including larger, more established companies with significantly greater financial resources. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in attracting and retaining skilled personnel. The loss of the services of one or more of the key employees or the failure to attract and retain qualified employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Management of Growth; International Expansion

We have experienced growth in our domestic business and operations. While we have managed this growth to date, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively do so in the future. Our ability to manage growth successfully is contingent on a number of factors including our ability to implement and improve operational, financial and management information systems and to motivate and effectively manage employees.

We have begun to distribute the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System in international markets, primarily the United Kingdom. We have no significant experience in international markets, and there can be no assurance that such expansion can be successfully accomplished or that the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System will be successfully adapted or accepted in the international markets. Additionally, we rely on MacroScope Ltd., which replaced NCR Corporation as our reseller in the United Kingdom, to sell and service the United Kingdom market place. At present, our international plans include only Canada and the United Kingdom.

Risks Associated with Acquisitions

As part of our business strategy, we expect to review acquisition prospects that would complement our existing product offerings, augment market coverage, enhance technological capabilities, or that may otherwise offer growth opportunities. Acquisitions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities or amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, any of which could materially adversely affect operating results and/or the price of our common stock. Acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations, technologies and products, diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, risks of entering markets in which we have no or limited prior experience and potential loss of key employees of acquired organizations. No assurance can be given as to our ability to successfully integrate any businesses, products, technologies or personnel that might be acquired in the future, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Insufficient Customer Commitment

To obtain the benefits of the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System, customers must commit resources to implement and manage the product and to train their employees in the use of the product. The failure of customers to commit sufficient resources to those tasks or to carry them out effectively could result in customer dissatisfaction with the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System. If a significant number of customers became dissatisfied, our reputation could be tarnished and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Competition

The enterprise software market is fragmented, intensely competitive and rapidly changing. We face competition from a variety of software vendors, including application software vendors, software tool vendors and relational database management system vendors. Several large technology companies have recently expanded into the enterprise software market by acquiring established vendors in the market. Additionally, several software companies that have traditionally marketed enterprise software to larger manufacturers have announced initiatives to target mid-market manufacturers. Compared to us, many of our existing competitors, as well as a number of potential competitors, have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources and a larger base of customers. There can be no assurance that such competitors will not offer or develop products that are superior to the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System or that achieve greater market acceptance. If such competition were to result in significant price declines or loss of market share for the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System, our business, financial condition and results of operation would be adversely affected.




– 17 –

The technologies we use to develop the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System are generally available and widely known, including technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. The Made2Manage Enterprise Business System competes with other products principally on the basis that it is specifically designed for mid-market manufacturers, is relatively easy to implement and use, and is supported by a well-developed system of service and support. In addition, we believe that advanced features for messaging and Internet access differentiate the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System. We believe that the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System compares favorably with the products offered by competitors, but there can be no assurance that we will continue to compete successfully against such products or that we will be able to compete successfully against future products.

Relationships with Value Added Resellers

We distribute our software products through a direct sales force and a network of value added resellers (“VARs”). A significant portion of licenses of the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System sold to new customers is sold by VARs. Additionally, we rely on MacroScope Ltd., which replaced NCR Corporation as our reseller in the United Kingdom, to sell and service the United Kingdom market place. If some or all of the VARs reduce their efforts to sell the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System, promote competing products or terminate their relationships with us, our business, financial condition and results of operation would be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, VARs frequently develop strong relationships with their customers, so if VARs criticize us or our products to their customers, our reputation could be damaged, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Product Liability and Insufficient Insurance

We market, sell and support software products used by manufacturers to manage their business operations and to store substantially all of their operational data. Software programs as complex as those we offer may contain undetected errors, despite testing, which are discovered only after the product has been installed and used by customers. There can be no assurance that errors will not be found in existing or future releases of our software or that any such errors will not impair the market acceptance of these products. A customer could be required to cease operations temporarily and some or all of its key operational data could be lost or damaged if its information systems fail as the result of human error, mechanical difficulties or quality problems in the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System or third-party technologies utilized by the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System.

We have insurance covering product liability or damages arising from negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions; however there can be no assurance that this insurance will be adequate. Additionally, we are subject to other legal proceedings and claims in the normal course of business. A claim against us, if successful and of a sufficient magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Proprietary Rights; Risk of Infringement

We rely primarily on a combination of trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, nondisclosure agreements and other contractual provisions and technical measures to protect our proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that these protections will be adequate or that competitors will not independently develop products incorporating technology that is substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. We have a United States patent for software related to Materials Requirements Planning regeneration and patent applications pending for software included in the Made2Manage Enterprise Business System related to a navigational interface and an e-commerce hosting approach for the enterprise. However, we have no other patents or patent applications pending, and existing copyright laws afford only limited protection. In the event that we are unable to protect our proprietary rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.




– 18 –

There can be no assurance that we will not be subject to claims that our technology infringes on the intellectual property of third parties, that we would prevail against any such claims or that a licensing agreement will be available on reasonable terms in the event of an unfavorable ruling on any such claim. Any such claim, with or without merit, would likely be time consuming and expensive to defend and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Substantial Control by Single Shareholder

As of July 31, 2002, Hambrecht & Quist California and Hambrecht & Quist London Ventures (the "Entities Affiliated with J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Inc.") beneficially owned approximately 15.5% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, the Entities Affiliated with J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Inc., will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Concentration of stock ownership could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

Effect of Antitakeover Provisions

The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Made2Manage Systems, Inc. (the “Articles”), authorize the Board of Directors to issue, without shareholder approval, up to two million shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine in its sole discretion. The Made2Manage Systems, Inc., Employee Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) provides that, unless the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors decides to the contrary, all outstanding options vest and become immediately exercisable upon a merger or similar transaction. In addition, certain provisions of Indiana law could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control. Further, certain provisions of Indiana law impose various procedural and other requirements that could make it more difficult for shareholders to effect certain corporate actions. The foregoing provisions could discourage an attempt by a third party to acquire a controlling interest without the approval of management even if such third party were willing to purchase shares of common stock at a premium over its then market price.

Our Board of Directors believes that it is imperative to diminish the inevitable distraction of key executive employees by the personal uncertainties and risks created by a pending or threatened change in control. In order to encourage such executives’ full undivided time, attention, loyalty, and dedication, the Board of Directors has approved the Made2Manage Systems, Inc., Executive Salary Continuation Plan (the “Salary Continuation Plan”). Pursuant to the terms of the Salary Continuation Plan, we have entered into agreements with the President and each of the Vice Presidents of the company pursuant to which each of them will receive certain severance payments in the event their employment with the company is terminated within twelve months of a change in control or ownership of the company.

Possible Volatility of Stock Price

The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to quarterly variations in operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new applications by us or our competitors, the failure of earnings to meet the expectations of securities analysts and investors, as well as other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has from time to time experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have particularly affected the market price of many high technology companies and which often have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price of the common stock. As of July 31, 2002, we had 4,894,714 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 759,276 shares of common stock are “Restricted Shares,” which are subject to volume and other limitations of Rule 144 and Rule 701 restrictions under the Securities Act. As of July 31, 2002, there were 2,432,933 options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $5.78 per share under the Company’s stock option plans, of which options to purchase 1,213,830 shares of common stock were then vested and exercisable. At July 31, 2002, we had reserved 435,912 shares of common stock for future grant under the 1999 Made2Manage Systems, Inc., Employee Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). We have reserved 200,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Made2Manage Systems, Inc., Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Stock Purchase Plan”). As of July 31, 2002, 82,118 shares have been issued under the Stock Purchase Plan. We have filed registration statements registering shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and the Stock Purchase Plan on January 30, 1998. Accordingly, shares issued pursuant to these plans will be saleable in the public market upon issuance, subject to certain restrictions.

Absence of Dividends

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, for the development of our business.

Investment Risk

Despite the high credit ratings on our cash equivalents and investments, there is no assurance such agencies will not default on their obligations which could result in losses of principal and accrued interest.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We transact limited business in various foreign currencies, primarily in the British pound sterling and Canadian dollar. We do not have any significant receivables or obligations denominated in foreign currencies. We do not have any foreign currency swaps or derivatives, and we are not currently subject to material foreign currency exchange risk.
