BINDVIEW DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. GENERAL

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of BindView
Development Corporation, a Texas corporation (the "Company" or "BindView"),
included herein have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain
information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.
The Company believes that the presentations and disclosures herein are adequate
to make the information not misleading. The consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
for a fair presentation of the interim periods.

The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. These
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2002.

loss per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Options and warrants to purchase 7.0 million shares of common stock for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 7.9 million shares of common stock for
the three months ended March 31, 2002 were outstanding, but were not included in
the computation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have been
anti-dilutive.


3. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for all stock-based employee compensation plans
under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB 25") and related interpretations.
Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if
any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common shares at the date of
the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the common shares. The
Company grants options at prices equal to the market price of common shares on
the date of the grant and therefore does not record compensation costs related
to these grants. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 148,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - an Amendment to FAS 123," requires
companies that continue to account for stock-based compensation in accordance
with APB 25 to disclose certain information using tabular presentation as
presented below. This table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per
share (in thousands, except per share amounts) as if the Company had applied the
fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation:

4. RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

In January 2003, the Company approved a sales and marketing
reorganization plan. The cost of this plan totaled approximately $0.6 million
and consisted primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately
20 employees (a reduction in workforce of approximately 4 percent), (ii) closing
the Company's Netherlands sales office, and (iii) reserves for leasehold
abandonment.

The accrued restructuring expenses and amounts charged against the
provision as of March 31, 2003 were as follows (in thousands):

In July 2002, the Company approved a restructuring plan to improve
operating efficiency and improve sales and marketing productivity (the "2002
Restructuring Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled approximately $1.9 million
and consisted primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately
30 employees (a reduction in workforce of approximately 5 percent), (ii) closing
the Company's Boston development center and certain European sales offices,
(iii) reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related
cuts.

BINDVIEW DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



In 2001, we completed a corporate reorganization and implemented a
number of cost-cutting measures to improve operating efficiency and to
accelerate our return to profitability. The cost of this plan totaled
approximately $7.7 million and consisted primarily of: (i) involuntary employee
separation expenses for approximately 160 employees (a reduction in workforce of
approximately 21 percent), (ii) downsizing or closing of our Boston and
Arlington development centers and certain of our European sales offices, (iii)
reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related
costs. The restructuring costs included a $1.2 million charge related to asset
impairments of leasehold improvements, equipment and other assets of the closed
or downsized offices. At December 31, 2002, the remaining accrual totaled $1.4
million, which related to an accrual for lease commitments. During the three
months ended March 31, 2003, approximately $46 thousand was charged against that
accrual.


5. INCOME TAXES

In 2002, the Company provided a full valuation allowance against
deferred tax assets of $19.6 million in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standard No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Management remains optimistic
about the future prospects of the Company's business and the industry and
continues to believe that over time, as the market improves, the Company should
generate sufficient taxable income to utilize a substantial portion of its net
operating loss carryforwards. Until such time as a consistent pattern of
sufficient profitability is established, no tax benefit will be recognized
associated with the Company's pre-tax accounting losses and a full income tax
provision will not be provided on any future pre-tax accounting income.


6. RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of SFAS No. 133
on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 149"). SFAS No. 149
amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities
under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or
modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June
30, 2003, and should be applied prospectively. The provisions of SFAS No. 149
that relate to SFAS No. 133 implementation issues that have been effective for
fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003 should continue to be applied
in accordance with their respective effective dates. The Company does not expect
the impact of adoption of SFAS No. 149 to have a material effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contain forward-looking statements which involve risks and
uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from the
results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause
such a difference include those discussed in the "Cautionary Statements" set
forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year
ended December 31, 2002, as well as other factors such as, for example: the
risks associated with lower customer demand in a weak economy; increased
competition within the network management software industry; the effects of
recently-implemented cost reductions on the Company's business; transitional
inefficiencies that may arise during the Company's implementation of
recently-announced reorganization plans; and the management challenges of
implementing those plans while attempting to maintain employee motivation and
effectiveness. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements included with this report and our
consolidated financial statements and related Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended
December 31, 2002 included in our Annual Report of Form 10-K, as amended.

OVERVIEW

See discussion under Item 1, "General" in our Annual Report on Form
10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2002 for an overview of our
business.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting
policies and estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to
those disclosed in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations included in our annual report on Form 10-K,
as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
2002

REVENUES. Revenues for the current quarter were $13.0 million compared
with $16.8 million for the first quarter of 2002. The year-over-year decline
related to the decrease in license sales, partially offset by increased services
revenues. License revenues for the current quarter were $5.2 million compared
with $9.5 million in the first quarter of 2002. This decline was due to: (i)
fewer large transactions being closed during the quarter, (ii) customer budget
sensitivities, which we believe were driven by the weak economic outlook, and
(iii) the effects of major organizational and go-to-market changes in sales and
marketing that took place during the quarter. Services revenues for the current
quarter were up 8.1 percent to $7.8 million, from $7.3 million in the first
quarter of 2002.

During the three months ended March 31, 2003, we closed 12 transactions
over $130 thousand, having an average sales price of $230 thousand, compared
with 17 transactions over $130 thousand in the first quarter of 2002, having an
average sales price of $372 thousand. The fewer number of large transactions in
the first quarter of 2003 reflected the low number of large prospects in the
first quarter pipeline, as well as the deferral of certain large transactions by
customers due to budget sensitivities.

During the first quarter of 2003, revenues from our products for
Microsoft-based platforms totaled $8.7 million, a decrease of 14 percent over
the first quarter of 2002. Revenues from these products accounted for
approximately 67 percent of total revenues in the current quarter, up from 60
percent of total revenues for the same quarter in the prior year. Revenues from
our products for Novell-based platforms for the current quarter were $2.7
million, or 21 percent of total revenues, compared with 4.2 million in the first
quarter of 2002, or 25 percent of total revenues. Revenues from these products
have been declining over the past year, reflecting both the maturity and our
penetration of the Novell market. We expect revenues from our software products
on Microsoft-based platforms will continue to grow as a percentage of total
revenues.

Sales of our security focused bv-Control product line accounted for
approximately 80 percent of our license revenue in the current quarter compared
with 85 percent in the first quarter of 2002. Sales of our system administration
focused bv-Admin product line accounted for approximately 20 percent of our
license revenue in the


8


first quarter of 2003 compared with 11 percent in the first quarter of 2002.

No customer accounted for more than 10 percent of our revenues in the
first quarter of 2003 or 2002. Revenues recognized from sales to customers
outside North America, primarily in Europe, accounted for approximately 9
percent of total revenues in the current quarter compared with 7 percent in the
first quarter of 2002.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the current quarter decreased 23.7
percent to $11.5 million, from $15.1 million for the first quarter of 2002.
Gross margin for the current quarter was 88.1 percent compared with 89.7 percent
in the first quarter of 2002. The decline in gross profit and gross margin is
primarily due to the decrease in license revenue noted above.

OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES. Operating costs and expenses for the
current quarter totaled $14.3 million, down from $17.3 million for the first
quarter of 2002. The improvement was the result of the reduction in operating
costs and expenses related to the Company's 2002 corporate reorganization and
restructuring.

Sales and marketing expenses for the current quarter decreased 25.1
percent to $7.8 million, from $10.4 million for the first quarter of 2002
primarily related to actions taken to improve sales efficiency and marketing
effectiveness and lower commissions and incentive based compensation. We expect
sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues to be lower for the
remainder of 2003 as a result of our initiatives to improve operating leverage
and sales and marketing effectiveness and anticipated revenue growth.

Research and development expenses for the current quarter decreased
15.6 percent to $4.2 million, from $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2002.
This decrease primarily related to the closing or downsizing of our development
offices in Boston, Massachusetts and Arlington, Virginia and transferring those
activities to our lower-cost development centers in Houston, Texas and Pune,
India. We also transferred development responsibilities for certain of our
legacy products from Houston, Texas to Pune, India and expect to continue
leveraging that development center in the future. As a result of these
initiatives and anticipated revenue growth, we expect future research and
development expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenues.

General and administrative expenses for the current quarter decreased
6.9 percent to $1.8 million, from $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2002. We
expect future general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of
revenues as a result of our restructuring initiatives to date to improve
operating efficiencies, as well as anticipated revenue growth.

In January 2003, we approved a sales and marketing reorganization plan.
The cost of this plan totaled approximately $0.6 million and consisted primarily
of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately 20 employees (a
reduction in workforce of approximately 4 percent), (ii) closing our Netherlands
sales office, and (iii) reserves for leasehold abandonment.

The accrued restructuring expenses and amounts charged against the
provision as of March 31, 2003 were as follows (in thousands):

In July 2002, we approved a restructuring plan to improve operating
efficiency and improve sales and marketing productivity (the "2002 Restructuring
Plan"). The cost of this plan totaled approximately $1.9 million and consisted
primarily of (i) involuntary employee separation for approximately 30 employees
(a reduction in workforce of approximately 5 percent), (ii) closing our Boston
development center and certain European sales offices, (iii) reserves for
leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related cuts.

In 2001, we completed a corporate reorganization and implemented a
number of cost-cutting measures to improve operating efficiency and to
accelerate our return to profitability. The cost of this plan totaled
approximately $7.7 million and consisted primarily of: (i) involuntary employee
separation expenses for approximately 160 employees (a reduction in workforce of
approximately 21 percent), (ii) downsizing or closing of our Boston and
Arlington development centers and certain of our European sales offices, (iii)
reserves for leasehold abandonment, and (iv) various non-personnel related
costs. The restructuring costs included a $1.2 million charge related to asset
impairments of leasehold improvements, equipment and other assets of the closed
or downsized offices. At December 31, 2002, the remaining accrual totaled $1.4
million, which related to an accrual for lease commitments. During the three
months ended March 31, 2003, approximately $46 thousand was charged against that
accrual.

OTHER INCOME. Other income totaled $0.1 million and $1.6 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease in
other income was primarily due to the receipt of a $1.3 million settlement of a
business interruption claim in the first quarter of 2002 related to the flooding
that occurred in June 2001.

BENEFIT FOR INCOME TAXES. We provided a full valuation allowance
against our deferred tax assets during the second quarter of 2002. Until such
time as a consistent pattern of sufficient profitability is established, no tax
benefit will be recognized associated with our pre-tax accounting losses and a
full income tax provision will not be provided on any future pre-tax accounting
income. The benefit for income taxes was $0.2 million (an effective tax rate of
35.0 percent) for the first quarter of 2002.

NET LOSS. Due to the factors described above, net loss for the quarter
ended March 31, 2003 was $2.7 million compared with $0.4 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2002.

OUTLOOK. BindView expects revenues for the second quarter of 2003 to
range between $15.0 million and $17.0 million. The operating loss, before
restructuring costs, for the second quarter is expected to range between $1.0
million and $2.5 million. For the full-year 2003, we expect revenues will exceed
$67 million, at which level we will generate positive cash flow before the
effects of any restructuring charges.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our capital requirements have principally related to working capital
needs and capital expenditures. These requirements have been met through a
combination of issuances of securities and internally generated funds.

We had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $37.4
million at March 31, 2003 compared with $37.8 million at December 31, 2002. The
decline primarily related to our use of cash to fund its working capital
requirements during the quarter.

Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities were $(0.5)
million in the first quarter of 2003 and $3.0 million in the first quarter of
2002. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities in 2003 was
primarily the result of a $0.6 million increase in our operating loss during the
current quarter to $2.8 million, from $2.2 million during the first quarter of
2002.

Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were $(0.3)
million in the first quarter of 2003 and $2.4 million in the first quarter of
2002. The decrease in cash generated from investing activities was primarily



10


attributable to proceeds of $3.3 million generated from maturity of investments
during 2002 that were not reinvested. This was partially offset by a $0.6
million reduction in capital expenditures during the current quarter to $0.3
million, from $0.9 million during the first quarter of 2002.

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $0.2 million in the
first quarter of 2003 and $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2002. Cash
provided by financing activities during both quarters was primarily attributable
to cash provided by the issuance of common stock under our Employee Stock
Purchase Plan.

We conduct operations in leased facilities under operating leases
expiring at various dates through 2011. The remaining contractual obligations
under these lease commitments were comprised of the following as of March 31,
2003 (in thousands):




CONTRACTUAL 2009 AND
OBLIGATION TOTAL 2003 2004 -- 2006 2007 - 2008 BEYOND
---------- ----- ---- ------------ ----------- ------

Operating leases $ 34,120 $ 1,869 $11,769 $8,929 $11,553

------- ------- ------- ------ -------
$ 32,724 $ 1,036 $11,206 $8,929 $11,553
======== ======= ======= ====== =======


* We have sub-leased portions of these facilities under operating leases.
Anticipated cash receipts from these executed sub-lease arrangements have been
taken into account when deriving expected cash outflow on operating lease
commitments in the preceding table.


Our expected principal cash requirements for the remainder of 2003 are:
(i) capital expenditures between $1.0 and $1.5 million, primarily for computer
and software equipment, (ii) working capital requirements, (iii) net payments on
operating leases of approximately $1.0 million, and (iv) payment of accrued
restructuring expenses of approximately $0.2 million. We believe there is
sufficient cash on hand to meet these cash requirements, as well as its cash
requirements for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes since December 31, 2002. See the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer
and the Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to
Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of a date (the
"Evaluation Date") within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report. Based
on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer
concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective in ensuring that all material information relating to
the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be filed in
this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely manner. There have
been no significant changes made in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the
Evaluation Date.

Company's implementation of recently-announced reorganization plans; and the
management challenges of implementing those plans while attempting to maintain
