ASPEN TECHNOLOGY, INC.
PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In January 1996, Aspen Technology, Inc. (the Company) purchased
approximately 81% of common stock of Dynamic Matrix Control Corporation (DMCC)
for approximately $15.7 million in cash. In February 1996, the remaining 19% of
common stock was purchased for an additional $3.0 million in cash. This
acquisition is being accounted for as a purchase, and due to the different basis
in assets for book and tax purposes, deferred taxes have been provided for as
part of the purchase price allocation in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) 109. A significant portion of the purchase price, as
outlined in the attached notes to these pro forma financial statements, has been
identified in an appraisal as intangible assets, including approximately $9.5
million of research and development in process (see discussion in Note 3).
In addition, in January 1996, the Company signed a definitive agreement to
purchase 100% of the outstanding stock of Setpoint, Inc. for $26.3 million. The
purchase price is subject to certain downward adjustments based upon the net
worth of Setpoint as of December 31, 1995 and negotiations with the seller.
Based upon the tangible net worth identified in the audited balance sheet as of
December 31, 1995, the purchase price could be adjusted downward by up to
$900,000. Upon closing, the Company paid down $1.7 million of the $5.2 million
of outstanding intercompany debt and signed a note for the remaining $3.5
million. This note is due in November 1996. This note is subject to an
adjustment if the purchase price is reduced below $26.3 million. The pro forma
financial statements presented herein do not reflect a net worth adjustment as
it is subject to negotiations. If the purchase price is later adjusted, the
purchase price allocation outlined in Note 1, will be appropriately adjusted.
This acquisition is also being accounted for as a purchase, and due to the
different basis in assets, for book and tax purposes, deferred taxes have been
provided for as part of the purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS
109. Additionally, a significant portion of the purchase price has been
identified in an appraisal as intangible assets, including approximately $14.9
million of research and development in process (see discussion in Note 3).
The accompanying pro forma combined condensed balance sheets as of June 30,
1995 and December 31, 1995 assume that the acquisitions of DMCC and Setpoint
took place as of the beginning of the fiscal year presented July 1, 1994, and
carried forward through the interim period presented. The pro forma combined
condensed statements of income do not include the effect of any non-recurring
charges directly attributable to the acquisition.
The accompanying pro forma combined condensed financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related
notes thereto for the Company, DMCC and Setpoint.

NOTE 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
Certain pro forma adjustments have been made to the accompanying pro forma
combined condensed balance sheets and statements of operations as described
below for both DMCC and Setpoint. The pro forma adjustments outlined below
assume that the purchase of both acquisitions took place at the beginning of
Aspen's last fiscal year, specifically July 1, 1994. Due to the non-recurring
nature of the Purchased R&D In-Process it has been assumed to be written off
before the beginning of the pro forma period (July 1, 1994).
DMCC:
(1),(2) Earn out of uncompleted contracts.
(3) Depreciation of additional amounts allocated to building, using a
life of 30 years.

result of liquidating investments and increasing debt necessary
to acquire Setpoint assets.
(13) Eliminate $482,000 of non-recurring management fees for which no
direct or indirect services were received. Aspen has not charged
such fees to subsidiaries in the past and does not intend to do
so in the future. Eliminate $354,000 of non-recurring bonuses
paid pursuant to phantom stock agreement terminated by Aspen at
the time Setpoint was acquired.
(14) Eliminate intercompany revenues related to the joint venture
activities between Setpoint and the Company prior to the
acquisition.
(15) Related tax effect of (12) - (14).
NOTE 3. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN-PROCESS
In connection with the purchase price allocation, the Company received an
appraisal of the assets acquired from both DMCC and Setpoint which indicates
that these assets combined include approximately $24.4 million of research and
development in process. In the opinion of management and the appraiser, the
acquired research and development in process has no alternative uses, and
accordingly, this amount will be charged to expense at the time the acquisitions
are consummated. This charge has been assumed to be written-off before the pro
forma periods presented.
