JACK HENRY & ASSOCIATES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
       NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (Unaudited)


1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      Description of the Company - Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
("JHA" or the "Company") is a computer software company which has
developed or acquired several banking software systems.  The Company
markets these systems to financial institutions in the United States
along with the computer equipment (hardware), and provides the
conversion and software customization services necessary for a
financial institution to install a JHA software system.  The
institution can elect to have this system in-house or outsourced
through one of the Company's service bureau locations which provides
continuing support and maintenance services to customers using the
system.  The Company also processes ATM and debit card transactions
and provides internet banking solutions for financial institutions
in the U.S.

      Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of JHA and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in the consolidation.

      Comprehensive Income - Comprehensive income for each of the
three and six month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, equals
the Company's net income.

      Restatement - The consolidated financial statements for the
three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 have been
restated to include Sys-Tech, Inc. of Kansas and Big Sky Marketing,
Inc. (collectively referred to as Sys-Tech) which were acquired on
June 1, 2000.  The acquisitions were accounted for as a pooling of
interests and therefore all prior periods have been adjusted to
reflect the acquisitions as if they had occurred at the beginning of
the earliest period reported.

      Common Stock Split - Prior period share and per share data
have been adjusted for the 100% stock dividend paid March 2, 2000.

      Reclassification - Where appropriate, prior period's financial
information has been reclassified to conform with the current
period's presentation.

      Other Significant Accounting Policies - The accounting
policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the
Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K ("Form 10-K") for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2000.


2.  Interim Financial Statements

      The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America applicable to interim consolidated financial statements, and
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for complete consolidated financial statements.  The
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes which are included in its Form 10-K for the year
ended June 30, 2000.


      In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
necessary (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) to
present fairly the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2000 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the three and six month periods then ended.

      The results of operations for the period ended December 31,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the entire year.

3.  Additional Interim Footnote Information

      The following additional information is provided to update the
notes to the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for
developments during the six months ended December 31, 2000:

Purchase Transactions

      On June 7, 2000, the Company completed the acquisition of
Symitar Systems, Inc. (Symitar).  On September 8, 1999, the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Open Systems Group (OSG),
completed the acquisition of BancTec, Inc.'s community banking
business.  These acquisitions were accounted for by the purchase
method of accounting.  Accordingly, the accompanying condensed
statement of income for the three and six month periods ended
December 31, 1999 does not include any revenues and expenses related
to these acquisitions prior to the respective closing date.  The
following unaudited proforma consolidated information is presented
as if these acquisitions had occurred as of the beginning of the
period presented.

Secondary Offering

      On August 16, 2000, the Company completed a secondary offering
of 1.5 million shares of its common stock at $43.00 per share less a
5% underwriters discount and offering expenses paid by the Company.
A portion of the net proceeds of approximately $60,500,000 was used
to retire the remaining outstanding short-term borrowings under
lines of credit as of that date, and the balance will be used for
working capital, capital expenditures, potential future acquisitions
and other general corporate purposes.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities".  SFAS No.133 establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging activities.  SFAS No.133, as amended by
SFAS No.137 and SFAS No. 138, was effective for all fiscal quarters
of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  This new standard
was adopted July 1, 2000 and did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial position and results of operations.

      The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No.101, "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements", on December 3, 1999.  SAB No.101, as amended,
provides the SEC Staff's views on selected revenue recognition
issues and is effective no later than the fourth fiscal quarter for
years beginning after December 15, 1999, which for the Company is
the beginning of its fourth quarter of fiscal 2001.  The Company has
not completed the process of evaluating the impact that will result
from adopting SAB No.101 and therefore, is unable to determine the
impact that the adoption will have on its financial position and
results of operations.

      Per share information is based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding for the three and six month periods
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999.  Stock options have been included
in the calculation of income per share to the extent they are
dilutive.  Reconciliation from basic to diluted weighted average
shares outstanding is the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.

5.    Stock Dividend

  On January 29, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
100% stock dividend on its common stock, effectively a 2 for 1 stock
split.  The stock dividend is payable March 2, 2001 to stockholders
of record at the close of business on February 15, 2001.  The shares
presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of
December 31 and June 30, 2000, and the number of shares used in the
computation of earnings per share in the condensed consolidated
statements of income for the three and six months ended December 31,
2000 and 1999, were based on the number of shares outstanding before
giving effect to the stock split.  On a proforma basis, giving
effect to the stock split, outstanding shares and revised earnings
per share would have been as follows:

     6.  Business Segment Information

           The Company is a leading provider of integrated
     computer systems that perform data processing (available
     for in-house or service bureau installations) for banks
     and credit unions.  The Companies operations were
     classified as one business segment in the prior year.  The
     acquisition of Symitar Systems, Inc. entrenched the
     Company more significantly into the credit union
     marketplace.  The Company's operations have been
     classified into two business segments: bank systems and
     services and credit union systems and services.  The
     Company evaluates the performance of its segments and
     allocates resources to them based on various factors,
     including prospects for growth, return on investment and
     return on revenues.

     Item 2. - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
     and Financial Condition

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Background and Overview

           The Company is a leading provider of integrated
     computer systems that perform data processing (available
     for in-house or data center installations) for banks and
     credit unions.  The Company also processes ATM and debit
     card transactions and provides internet banking solutions
     for these financial institutions.   The Company was
     founded in 1976.  Its developed proprietary applications
     software, which operates on IBM computers, is offered
     under two systems:  CIF 20/20(TM) (1), typically for banks
     with less than $300 million in assets, and the Silverlake
     System(R) (2), for banks with assets up to $10 billion.
     Its acquired proprietary applications software for banks
     and credit unions, which operates in the UNIX and NT
     client-server environment, operates on various hardware
     platforms.  JHA frequently sells hardware with its
     software products.  It also provides customer support and
     related services.  The Company has over 2,800 banks and
     credit unions as customers.
     ____________________
          1     CIF 20/20(TM) is a trademark of Jack Henry &
     Associates, Inc.
          2     Silverlake System(R) is a registered trademark
     of Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.


     A detailed discussion of the major components of the
     results of operations for the three and six month periods
     ended December 31, 2000, as compared to the same period in
     the previous year follows:

     Revenues

          Revenues increased 49% to $80,732,000 in the quarter
     ended December 31, 2000.  The increase is primarily due to
     financial institutions taking delivery of products in this
     quarter compared to the curtailment of system upgrades in
     the same quarter last year due to the turn of the century.
      Software licensing and installation increased 170%.
     Maintenance, support and service revenues increased 33%.
     Hardware sales increased 15% from last year's quarter.

      Six month revenues this year were $157,740,000, an
     increase of 62% compared to last year's corresponding
     period.  Software licensing and installation increased
     133%.  Maintenance, support and service revenues increased
     40%.  Hardware sales increased 46%.

      The backlog of sales at December 31, 2000 was
     $110,750,000 ($44,750,000 In-House and $66,000,000
     Outsourcing).  This is up slightly from the June 30, 2000
     level, and is consistent with management's expectations
     for the second quarter.  Backlog at January 31 2001 was
     $116,772,000.


     Cost of Sales

      Cost of sales increased 27% in the second quarter ended
     December 31, 2000.  Cost of hardware increased 3%,
     somewhat less than the 15% increase in hardware revenue.
     Cost of services increased 45%, which is considerably less
     than the 71% increase in non-hardware revenues.

      Cost of sales increased 48% for the first six months of
     fiscal year 2001, compared to a 62% increase in revenues.
     Cost of hardware increased 36%, compared to 46% increase
     in hardware revenues.  Cost of services increased 57%,
     which is less than the 70% increase in non-hardware
     revenues.

      For the three and six month periods ended, cost of sales
     have decreased as a percentage compared to revenue.  This
     is attributable to acquisition costs and continuing to
     maintain resources for development and installation in the
     previous year even though financial institutions were
     delaying system upgrades and installations.

     Gross Profit

      Gross profit increased to $34,767,000 in the second
     quarter ended December 31, 2000, a 93% increase from last
     year.  The gross margin percentage was 43% of sales
     compared to 33% in last years 2nd quarter.  The increase
     is primarily due to change in sales mix as software
     licensing (higher margin sales) increased significantly
     due to financial institutions taking delivery of products
     in this quarter compared to the curtailment of system
     upgrades last year due to the turn of the century.

      The six month gross profit this year increased 83% to
     $69,399,000.  The gross margin percentage for the first
     six months of fiscal 2001 was 44% of sales, an increase
     from last years rate of 39%.

     Operating Expenses
      Total operating expenses increased 29%, which is
     considerably less than the 49% increase in revenue.
     Selling expenses increased 21%, which supports the
     increase in revenues and overall growth of the business,
     while research and development expenses increased 51%
     related to continued development and refinement of new and
     existing products.  General and administrative expenses
     increased 30% supporting the overall growth of the Company

     Provision for Income Taxes
      The effective tax rate for the three and six month
     periods ended December 31, 2000 as compared to the same

     gain partially offset by federal and state tax benefits
     realized in the prior year.

Item 3.  Quantitative and qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

      Market risk refers to the risk that a change in the level of
one or more market prices, interest rates, indices, volatilities,
correlations or other market factors such as liquidity, will result
in losses for certain financial instrument or group of financial
instruments.  We are currently exposed to credit risk on credit
extended to customers, interest risk on investments in U.S.
government securities and long-term debt.  We actively monitor these
risks through a variety of controlled procedures involving senior
management.  We do not currently use any derivative financial
instruments.  Based on the controls in place, credit worthiness of
the customer base and the relative size of these financial
instruments, we believe the risk associated with these instruments
will not have a material adverse affect on our consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
