VASCO DATA SECURITY INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of VASCO Data Security International, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company" or "VASCO") and have been prepared 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 notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited
consolidated financial statements, and include all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the
results of the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated. The operating results for the interim
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a
full year.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

At March 31, 2003, the Company had a stock-based employee compensation
plan. The Company accounts for the plan using the intrinsic method under the
recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations. No stock-based
compensation is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those
plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying Common
Stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net
income (loss) and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value
recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.

Overhead allocations ceased in the third quarter of fiscal year 2002
because their basis for allocation was no longer appropriate nor was it
representative of the operational activities of the departments affected. For
the quarter ended March 31, 2002, net overhead allocations from the Company's
General and Administrative and the Research and Development cost centers have
been reclassified from Sales and Marketing to their original cost centers.

NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES

Inventories, consisting principally of hardware and component parts,
are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the
first-in-first-out (FIFO) method.

Inventories, net of valuation allowance of $111,566 and $114,909 at
December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2003 respectively, are comprised of the
following:



December 31, March 31,

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

VASCO designs, develops, markets and supports open standards-based
hardware and software security systems which manage and secure access to data.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,"
contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning, among other things, the
prospects, developments and business strategies for the Company and its
operations, including the development and marketing of certain new products and
the anticipated future growth in certain markets in which the Company currently
markets and sells its products or anticipates selling and marketing its products
in the future. These forward-looking statements (i) are identified by their use
of such terms and phrases as "expected," "expects," "believe," "believes,"
"will," "anticipated," "emerging," "intends," "plans," "could," "may,"
"estimates," "should," "objective," and "goals" and (ii) are subject to risks
and uncertainties and represent the Company's present expectations or beliefs
concerning future events. The Company cautions that the forward-looking
statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including (a)
risks of general market conditions, including demand for the Company's products
and services, competition and price levels and the Company's historical
dependence on relatively few products, certain suppliers and certain key
customers, and (b) risks inherent to the computer and network security industry,
including rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, increasing
numbers of patent infringement claims, changes in customer requirements, price
competitive bidding, changing government regulations and potential competition
from more established firms and others. Therefore, results actually achieved may
differ materially from expected results included in, or implied by these
statements.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 AND MARCH 31, 2002

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 and 2002.

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $5,611,000, a
decrease of $421,000, or 7%, as compared to the three months ended March 31,
2002. The decline in revenues was primarily attributable to the Banking segment,
with the decline coming from lower order volume from smaller banks.

Revenues by target market were 72% from Banking, 18% from Corporate
Network Access and 10% from Maintenance. This compares with 82% of revenues from
Banking, 8% from Corporate Network Access and 10% from Maintenance in the first
quarter of the prior year.

Geographically, 84% of revenues in the first quarter of 2003 were from
Europe, 13% from the U.S. and 3% from other countries, primarily in the Asia/
Pacific region. In the first quarter of 2002, 86% of the revenues were from
Europe, 12% from the U.S. and 2% from other countries, primarily in the Asia/
Pacific region.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was
$2,163,000, a decrease of $66,000, or 3%, as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 2002. The decrease was due to the decline in sales as previously
described. The percentage decline in cost of goods sold was less than the
percentage decline in sales because sales to our larger banking customers, which
have higher costs relative to their respective sales prices, were a higher
percentage of the total sales in the Banking segment in the first quarter of
2003 as compared to the first quarter of 2002.

Gross Profit

The Company's gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2003
was $3,448,000, a decrease of $356,000, or 9%, as compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2002. This represents a gross margin of 62%, as compared to 63%
for the same period of 2002. The decrease in gross profit is due to lower
revenues for the period as well as a change in the mix of revenues. The decline
in gross profit as a percentage of revenue reflects a change in mix within the
Banking segment, with more of the revenues in the first quarter of 2003 coming
from our larger Banking customers with lower margins, partially offset by an
increase in sales to the Corporate Network Access segment that contributes a
higher margin.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and Marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2003
were $1,591,000, a decrease of $373,000, or 19% compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2002. The reduction in expense reflects the unfavorable impact
of changes in currency, of approximately $260,000, which were more than offset
by reductions in expenses related to personnel and spending in most
discretionary areas, including but not limited to, trade shows, publicity,
recruiting, and travel. Headcount dedicated to sales and marketing declined from
60 to 46 from the first quarter of 2002 to the first quarter of 2003.

Research and Development

Research and Development (R&D) costs for the three months ended March
31, 2003 were $735,000, a decrease of $57,000, or 7%, as compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2002. The reduction in expense reflects the unfavorable
impact of changes in currency, of approximately $90,000, which were more than
offset by reductions in expenses as a result of our consolidation of research
activities into our Belgian and Australian locations



-9-


and a reduction in the use of third-party suppliers of R&D resources. Total
headcount dedicated to R&D was unchanged.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended March
31, 2003 were $790,000, a decrease of $300,000, or 28%, compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2002. The reduction in expense reflects the unfavorable
impact of changes in currency, of approximately $57,000, which were more than
offset by reductions in expenses related to personnel and spending in most
discretionary areas including but not limited to contract services, travel,
rent, and telephone. Administrative headcount was reduced from 13 in the first
quarter of 2002 to 10 at the end of the first quarter of 2003.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was
$49,000, compared to $41,000 for the same period in 2002. This change was due to
a reduction of invested cash balances.

Other Income, Net

Net other income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was
$200,000, compared to $50,000 for the same period in 2002. This change is
primarily due to transaction gains reported by our foreign operations as a
result of the US dollar weakening against the Euro.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $3,892,000 at March 31,
2003, which is an increase of approximately $1,277,000 or 49% from $2,616,000 at
December 31, 2002. The increase in cash was a result of a strong operating cash
flow, deposits received on orders to be delivered in fiscal year 2003 and a
reduction in days sales outstanding in net accounts receivable. Earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) were $836,000 in the
quarter ended March 31, 2003. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income for the
quarter ended March 31, 2003 follows:



March 31, 2003
--------------

EBITDA .................................... $836,000
Interest expense, net ..................... 49,000
Tax provision ............................. --
Depreciation and amortization ............. 306,000
--------
Net income (loss) ......................... $481,000
========


Net deposits received, defined as total deposits received less product
shipped, were $900,000 during the first quarter of 2003 and days sales
outstanding in net accounts receivable declined from 74 days at December 31,
2002 to 68 days at March 31, 2003.

At March 31, 2003, the Company had lines of credit from European banks,
secured by the Company's trade accounts receivable totaling approximately
2,000,000 Euros, none of which were used.

As of March 31, 2003, the Company had working capital of $69,000 compared
with a deficit of $687,000 at December 31, 2002. Working capital at both March
31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 included the $3,400,000 term loan due to Dexia
Bank on September 30, 2003 as a current liability. We believe that our current
cash balances, credit available under our existing overdraft agreement, the
anticipated cash generated from operations, including the



-10-


realization of deferred revenue recorded as a current liability, deposits that
will be received in future quarters on orders of our Digipass product and the
impact of either (a) renegotiating the loan with Dexia, (b) entering into a
separate agreement to replace or repay the loan to Dexia, or (c) having Mr. T.
Kendall Hunt, the Company's CEO, surrender his shares of Common Stock, which are
pledged to Dexia as collateral for the loan, will be sufficient to meet our
anticipated cash needs over the next twelve months.

There is substantial risk, however, that our revenue and cash receipts
will not grow at a sufficient rate to generate the funds needed to repay our
debt to Dexia within the terms of the existing agreement. If we are unable to
meet our revenue and cash goals and are also unable to either renegotiate the
terms of the agreement with Dexia or reach a mutually acceptable agreement with
Mr. Hunt as an indemnity for his loss as a result of his surrender of shares of
our Common Stock to Dexia, we will need to significantly reduce our workforce,
sell certain of our assets, enter into strategic relationships or business
combinations, discontinue some or all of our operations, or take other similar
restructuring actions. While we expect that these actions would result in a
reduction of recurring costs, they also may result in a reduction of recurring
revenues and cash receipts. It is also likely that we would incur substantial
non-recurring costs to implement one or more of these restructuring actions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in the Company's market risk during
the three month period ended March 31, 2003. For additional information, refer
to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2002.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer,
respectively) have concluded, based on their evaluation as of a date within 90
days prior to the date of the filing of this Report, (the "Evaluation Date")
that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure
that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or
submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required by
the SEC's rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports
is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to
Evaluation Date.
