Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q contains statements that are not historical facts. These statements are called "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements involve important known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and can be identified by phrases using "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "project," "expect," "intend," "predict," "potential," "future," "may," "should" and similar expressions or words. The Company's future results, performance or achievements may differ materially from the results, performance or achievements discussed in the forward-looking statements. There are numerous factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in forward-looking statements, including:

Fluctuation in our quarterly revenues may adversely affect our operating results. In each fiscal quarter our expense levels, operating costs, and hiring plans are based on projections of future revenues and are relatively fixed. If our actual revenues fall below expectations, we could experience a reduction in operating results.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses. Changing laws, regulations, and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and NASDAQ rules, are creating uncertainty for companies such as ours. The costs required to comply with such evolving laws are difficult to predict. To maintain high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure, we intend to invest all reasonably necessary resources to comply with evolving standards. This investment may result in an unforeseen increase in general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities, which may harm our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Increases in service revenue as a percentage of total revenues could decrease overall margins and adversely affect our operating results. We realize lower margins on software and appraisal service revenues than on license revenue. The majority of our contracts include both software licenses and professional services. Therefore, an increase in the percentage of software service and appraisal service revenue compared to license revenue could have a detrimental impact on our overall gross margins and could adversely affect operating results.

Selling products and services into the public sector poses unique challenges. We derive substantially all of our revenues from sales of software and services to county and city governments. We expect that sales to local governments will continue to account for substantially all of our revenues in the future. We face many risks and challenges associated with contracting with governmental entities.

Some of our present contracts are on a fixed-priced basis, which can lead to various risks, including:

 

The failure to accurately estimate the resources and time required for an engagement;

 

 

 

 

The failure to effectively manage governmental agencies' and other customers' expectations regarding the scope of services to be delivered for an estimated price; and

 

 

 

 

The failure to timely complete fixed-price engagements within budget to the customers' satisfaction.

We face significant competition from other vendors and potential new entrants into our markets. We face competition from a variety of software vendors that offer products and services similar to those offered by us, as well as from companies offering to develop custom software.

We must respond to rapid technological and legislative changes to be competitive. The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological and legislative change, evolving industry standards in computer hardware and software technology, changes in customer requirements, and frequent new product introductions and enhancements. The introduction of products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable.

Our failure to properly manage growth could adversely affect our business. We intend to continue expansion into new markets, including California, in the foreseeable future to pursue existing and potential market opportunities. This growth places a significant demand on management and operational resources.

We may experience difficulties in executing our acquisition strategy.

We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights. Many of our product and service offerings incorporate proprietary information, trade secrets, know-how, and other intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of contracts, copyrights, and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology. We cannot be certain that we have taken all appropriate steps to deter misappropriation of our intellectual property.

Our products are complex and we run the risk of errors or defects with new product introductions or enhancements.

Changes in the insurance markets may affect our ability to win some contract awards and may lead to increased expenses. Some of our customers, primarily those for our property appraisal services, require that we secure performance bonds before they will select us as their vendor. The number of qualified, high-rated insurance companies that offer performance bonds has decreased in recent years, while the costs associated with securing these bonds has increased dramatically.

Factors that we have discussed in previous public reports and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This list provides examples of factors that could affect the results described by forward-looking statements contained in this Report. However, this list is not intended to be exhaustive; many other factors, including the risk factors disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, could impact our business and it is impossible to predict with any accuracy which factors could adversely affect the Company. Although we believe that the forward-looking statements contained in this Report are reasonable, we cannot provide you with any guarantee that the anticipated results will be achieved. All forward-looking statements in this Report are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this section and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. In addition to the risks listed above, other risks may arise in the future, and we disclaim any obligation to update information contained in any forward-looking statement.

MANATRON, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
_________________________

(1)          GENERAL INFORMATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have been prepared by Manatron, Inc. and its subsidiary ("Manatron" or the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 24, 2006.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly (a) the financial position of the Company as of July 31, 2006 and April 30, 2006, (b) the results of its operations for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, and (c) the cash flows for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005.

Revenue Recognition

The Company enters into contracts with customers to license or sell application software, third party software, hardware, related professional services, such as installation, training, data conversions and post-contract support and maintenance ("PCS") services, and various appraisal services.

The Company recognizes revenue for contracts with multiple element software arrangements in accordance with Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended. The Company allocates the total arrangement fee among each deliverable based on the relative fair value of each of the deliverables, determined based on vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE"). When discounts are offered in a software arrangement, the Company utilizes the residual method, as defined in SOP 97-2, and allocates revenue to the undelivered elements based on VSOE. The discount and remaining revenue are allocated to the delivered elements, which typically encompass the software and hardware components of the contract.

Certain of the Company's software arrangements involve "off-the-shelf" software and services that are not considered essential to the functionality of the software. For these arrangements, software revenue is recognized when the installation has occurred, customer acceptance is reasonably assured, the sales price represents an enforceable claim and is probable of collection, and the remaining services such as training and installation are considered nominal. Fees allocable to services under these arrangements are recognized as revenue as the services are performed.

(Continued)
_________________________

(1)          GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

Revenue related to sales of computer hardware and supplies is recognized when title passes, which is normally the shipping or installation date.

PCS includes telephone support, bug fixes, enhancements and rights to upgrades on a when-and-if-available basis. These support and maintenance fees are typically billed in advance on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis and are recognized as revenue ratably over the related contract periods.

Billings for Future Services, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, includes PCS and other services that have been billed to the customer in advance of performance. It also includes customer deposits on new contracts and other progress billings for software and hardware that have not been completely installed.

For arrangements that include significant customization or modification of the software, or where software services are otherwise considered essential, or for software that is not generally available, revenue is recognized using contract accounting. Revenue from these arrangements is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method with progress-to-completion measured based primarily upon labor hours incurred. Revenue earned is based on the progress-to-completion percentage after giving effect to the most recent estimates of total cost. Changes to total estimated contract costs, if any, are recognized in the period they are determined. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. The reserves for contract losses, as well as billed retainages outstanding associated with revenue that has been recognized, were approximately $663,000 and $579,000 at July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

For its real estate appraisal projects, the Company recognizes revenue using the proportional performance method as the Company believes that each of its projects result in one ultimate deliverable - the appraised values of all properties defined within a given contract, due to the fact that many of these projects are implemented over a one to three year period and consist of various activities. Under this method of revenue recognition, the Company identifies each activity for the appraisal project with a typical project generally calling for planning, data collection, data verification, data input, project management, abstracts and hearings. The costs for these activities are determined and the total contract value is then allocated to each activity based on the proportion of the budgeted cost for a given activity divided by the total budgeted cost for a project. Revenue recognition occurs for each activity based upon the proportional performance method, driven primarily by output measures such as parcels or hearings complete. Actual costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.

Since the timing of billings does not always coincide with revenue recognition, the Company reflects Revenues Earned in Excess of Billings and Retainages, as well as Billings in Excess of

(1)          GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

Revenues for contracts in process at the end of the reporting period, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Reserves against Accounts Receivable and reserves against Revenues Earned in Excess of Billings and Retainages are established based on the Company's collection history and other known risks associated with the related contracts. These reserves contain a general provision of 2% as well as a specific provision for accounts the Company believes will be difficult to collect. Due to the appropriation requirements of governmental units, the Company will very seldom have a collection issue due to a shortage or lack of funds, such as bankruptcy. The Company's past due receivables primarily revolve around issues in which the customer does not feel that the software operates to its expectations. In the majority of these cases there is a gap between what the customer expects and what the Company is obligated to deliver under its contract. It is not the Company's practice and not typical for the Company to offer price concessions. On the contrary, the Company collects under the original terms of its contracts in substantially all cases. Therefore, the Company believes its fees are fixed and determinable.

The Company's contracts do not typically contain a right of return or cancellation. Accordingly, as of July 31, 2006 and 2005, the reserve for returns was not material.

Notes Receivable result from certain software contracts in which customers pay for the application software, hardware or related services over an extended period of time, generally three to five years. Interest on these notes range from 8% to 10%. The Company recognizes revenue for these contracts when the related elements are delivered, as the contract terms are fixed and determinable and the Company has a longstanding history of collecting on the notes under the original payment terms without providing concessions. Certain of the Company's contracts with customers include lease terms which meet the criteria of sales-type leases as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 13, "Accounting for Leases." However, the Company's leasing activities are not a material part of its business activities and, accordingly, are not broken out separately in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

(2)          STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Effective with the beginning of the quarter ended July 31, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123(R)") using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under SFAS 123(R) a public entity is generally required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award, with such cost recognized over the applicable vesting period. In addition, SFAS 123(R) requires an entity to provide certain

disclosures in order to assist in understanding the nature of share-based payment transactions and the effects of those transactions on the financial statements.

As a result of this adoption, the Company incurred approximately $4,000 of compensation expense during the three months ended July 31, 2006 associated with the 15% discount offered to employees who participate in the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).

On March 17, 2005, in response to the required implementation of SFAS 123(R), the Company accelerated the vesting of its stock options. As a result of the vesting acceleration, approximately 100,000 shares became immediately exercisable and as of the beginning of the quarter ended July 31, 2006, there were no unvested options outstanding and therefore no associated compensation expense during the three months ended July 31, 2006.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the first three months of 2006 was $22,000.

Cash received from option exercises and share issuances under the Stock Purchase Plan was $48,000 during the first three months of fiscal 2007.

The Company has a number of stock plans that include restricted stock or stock options that were developed to assist the Company in attracting, rewarding, and retaining well-qualified directors, executive personnel, and other key employees. The Compensation Committee, a sub-committee of the Board of Directors, has the authority to approve restricted stock grants as well as the vesting schedule. Shares of restricted stock granted to employees typically vest over a three- to five-year period. When shares are granted, the related expense was previously reflected as deferred compensation in shareholders' equity in the accompanying balance sheets. However, with the implementation of SFAS 123(R) it has been reclassified and included within the common stock caption on the balance sheets. The related compensation expense is still being amortized to expense over the applicable vesting periods.

Stock options issued by the Company must be priced at 100% or greater of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. For employees of the Company owning stock with more than 10% of the voting rights, the exercise price of the stock options must be at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The aggregate fair market value of options granted to any employee in any calendar year cannot exceed $100,000. The term of each option is determined by the Compensation Committee, not to exceed ten years from the date of grant. If a participant ceases to be employed for any reason other than death, disability or termination for cause, the Participant generally may exercise any vested options within ninety days of the termination date. The vesting schedules of stock option grants are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, but typically range from two to five years.

Due to the loss reported for the period, there are no potential diluted shares included in the calculation. However, had income been reported there would have been an additional 294,040 of potential dilutive shares.

(4)          ACQUISITIONS

Effective February 1, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of ASIX Inc. ("ASIX"). The purchase price for ASIX was approximately $11 million consisting of $4.2 million in cash, 436,500 shares of Manatron common stock and $3.8 million in promissory notes bearing interest at 5% with $2.2 million, $1.2 million, $200,000 and $200,000 due on February 1, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The stock purchase agreement also contains an earn out provision of up to $1 million if certain revenue thresholds are met in the California market during the next six years, which would be recorded as additional goodwill, if paid.

The excess of the purchase price over the net book value of assets acquired of $8.6 million was allocated to goodwill and intangible assets. Specifically, $1,224,000 was allocated to customer relationships, $683,000 was allocated to purchased technology and $131,000 to trademarks, all of which will be amortized over a five-year period. The remaining $6.6 million has been allocated to goodwill.

Founded in 1991, ASIX designed, developed and marketed Ascend®, a comprehensive client/server-based assessment administration and property tax billing and collection system that is currently installed in 16 counties in Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. ASIX also provides professional services including installation, training, project management, data conversions and on-going support in connection with sales of its property tax software.

ASIX is currently a sub-contractor to BearingPoint, Inc. to provide technical services and subject matter expertise in connection with a $31 million project to develop a state-of-the-art property tax and assessment system for San Diego County. In connection with this project, ASIX and BearingPoint have entered into an exclusive joint marketing agreement to provide the developed solution to other California counties. In addition, ASIX has provided requirements definition and requests for proposal development to a number of larger jurisdictions seeking a new property tax system.

This acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The operating results of ASIX have been included in the Company's results of operations from the date of acquisition.

Effective November 1, 2005, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the Plexis Group, LLC ("Plexis") and assumed the support and maintenance obligations of its software contracts for approximately $1 million. The cash outlay for this transaction included an initial payment of $600,000 which was paid on November 1, 2005 and two additional payments of $200,000 which were due on November 1, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The Company prepaid this $400,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. The excess of the purchase price over the net book value of assets acquired of $1,080,000 was allocated to intangible assets. Specifically,

(4)          ACQUISITIONS (Continued)

$525,000 was allocated to customer relationships, which will be amortized over a five-year period. The remaining $555,000 has been allocated to goodwill.

Formed in 2000 as a subsidiary of Beam, Longest & Neff, LLC, a 50-year-old engineering company, Plexis was an Indiana-based company that had long standing relationships with 20 Indiana counties, 13 of whom are current Computer Assisted Mass Appraisal (CAMA) software clients. Plexis also provides property tax and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software and related services.

Historical annual revenues from the client base acquired have ranged from $1.5 million to $1.8 million, of which $550,000 was recurring from ongoing software support and map hosting contracts.

This acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The operating results of Plexis have been included in the Company's results of operations from the date of acquisition.

(5)          RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

In response to the Company's unsatisfactory financial results for fiscal year 2006, effective April 26, 2006, the Company made strategic workforce reductions. As a result of the reductions, sixty-two positions were eliminated. In connection with the reorganization, the Company incurred charges that were primarily associated with employee severance costs and related fringe benefits of approximately $532,000 before income taxes, all of which was accrued and expensed as of April 30, 2006. Approximately $449,000 of this amount was paid out during the quarter ended July 31, 2006. The remaining amount, related primarily to accrued medical costs, is expected to be paid out over the next fifteen months as claims are incurred.

(6)          CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND GUARANTEES

The Company is periodically a party, both as plaintiff and defendant, to lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the liabilities resulting from these proceedings, if any, would be material to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The Company provides to its customers a one-year warranty on its internally developed application software; however, warranty expenses are not and have not been, significant.

(6)          CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND GUARANTEES (Continued)

The Company is periodically required to obtain bid and performance bonds to provide certain assurances to current and prospective customers regarding its ability to fulfill contractual obligations. The Company has agreed to indemnify the surety for any and all claims made against the bonds. Historically, the Company has not had any claims for indemnity from its surety. As of July 31, 2006, the Company had approximately $28 million in outstanding performance bonds, which are anticipated to expire at various times over the next three years.

The Company utilizes subcontractors at times to help complete contractual obligations; however, the Company is still ultimately responsible for the performance of the subcontractors.


Item 2.

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

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's discussion and analysis of its results of operations and financial condition are based upon the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim periods. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to receivable allowances, long-term service contracts, intangible assets, contingencies and litigation. As these are condensed consolidated financial statements, reference should be made to the Company's Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended April 30, 2006, for expanded information about these critical accounting policies and estimates.

Results of Operations

The Company's business is primarily focused on providing software and services to enable local governments in North America to completely, fairly and efficiently assess real and personal property, and to bill and collect the related property taxes from its citizens. The Company's software manages the entire property life cycle, which includes deed recording, mapping (GIS), assessment, tax billing and collection, tax sales and e-government.

The Company's revenues are generated from software license fees, hardware sales, forms and supplies sales, and various related professional services, such as software support, data conversions, installation, training, project management, hardware maintenance, forms processing


-14-


and printing. The Company's revenues are also generated from appraisal services, which include mass real estate appraisals, revaluations and other appraisal-related consultative work.

For simplicity purposes, many of the numbers described below are rounded; however, the percentage variations are based upon the actual amounts.

Total net revenues of $10.7 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006 increased by $1.3 million or 14.4% in comparison to the $9.4 million of net revenues that were reported for the three months ended July 31, 2005. This increase was primarily due to increases in license fees, recurring support and maintenance and professional services.

Software license fees increased by $424,000 or 72.0% to $1.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006 versus the $588,000 of software license fees that were reported in the prior year comparable period. This was driven by the installation of MVP Tax and CAMA in Lawrence County, Ohio during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, as well as the continued execution on the Company's GRM® implementations in Minnesota, Nevada, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.

Recurring software support and maintenance fees increased by $923,000 or 25.4% to $4.6 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006 from $3.6 million for the three months ended July 31, 2005. These increases are due to three factors. First, the acquisitions of Plexis on November 1, 2005 and ASIX on February 1, 2006; second, annual price increases on the Company's software support contracts initiated in the prior year are starting to take effect; and third new software support and maintenance initiated during fiscal year 2006 on completed implementations, including Gwinnett County, Georgia; Payette County, Idaho; DuVal County, Florida; Davidson County, Tennessee and the CAMA portion of the City of Virginia Beach contract.

Professional services revenues increased by $363,000 or 9.1% to $4.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006 versus $4.0 million of professional services for the first quarter in the prior fiscal year. This increase was driven by the additional consulting services that the Company acquired as a result of the ASIX acquisition in February of 2006, as well as an increase in appraisal services revenues of $163,000 over the prior year three month period due to the timing of the completion of a large appraisal project. The Company anticipates that appraisal services revenues for the remaining nine months of fiscal year 2007 will lag behind prior year comparable figures.

Software license fees and related professional services revenues can vary significantly from quarter to quarter or year to year, as they are primarily driven by the Company's backlog, new sales and the timing of the related software installations and implementations. In addition, many of the larger and more complex jurisdictions, which the Company is now able to pursue due to its new product and business strategy, often take more than a year to fully implement and a number of these contracts are accounted for using the percentage of completion method, which results in the license revenues being recognized over the implementation period.

As of July 31, 2006, the Company's backlog was $17.3 million compared to $13.4 million at July 31, 2005. This increase is due to the signing of several key strategic GRM® contracts since


-15-


this time last year. These backlog amounts are exclusive of the Company's recurring revenue from support, maintenance and printing and processing contracts, which currently approximate $20 million on an annualized basis.

The GRM® suite of software is a feature-rich, fully-integrated enterprise-level solution that enabled Gwinnett County, Georgia, Kenai, Alaska and Payette County, Idaho to not only replace their legacy systems, but to realize significant efficiencies and cost savings, provide more and modern services to their constituents and in most cases, to collect additional tax revenues, which will more than offset the cost of the GRM® system. The rollout of this new, next generation national product has been a key pillar in the Company's growth strategy. It is providing a competitive edge in the market as few, if any other, companies currently have a similar product suite. Historically, the Company had unique Tax products for each state that it did business in. This required separate sales, marketing, development, and support initiatives. The Company expects to realize significant cost savings and economies of scale as it continues to market and implement GRM®.

Cost of revenues decreased by $576,000 or 8.7% from $6.7 million to $6.1 million for the quarter ended July 31, 2006 as compared to the quarter ended July 31, 2005 for three primary reasons. First, the Company completed a restructuring effective April 26, 2006 (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), which has resulted in lower labor cost. Second, outsourced labor decreased by $231,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended July 31, 2005 primary due to reduced activity on the Unisys project with the City of Baltimore; however, while outsourced labor overall has declined, the Company did incur an additional $352,000 of outsourced labor during the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 associated with the Unisys project with the City of Baltimore with no associated revenue. Finally, the three months ended July 31, 2005, also included a $200,000 increase to the cost-to-complete reserve associated with the Baltimore project discussed above, which was not repeated during the three months ended July 31, 2006.

As noted in prior filings, the City of Baltimore has delayed its "go live" date several times thus far and most recently made the decision to delay once more until January of 2007. This project has turned into a custom build solution versus the Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) product initially purchased. The Company is currently in negotiations with Unisys (the prime contractor) to address how the Company will be compensated for out-of-scope work performed since March 1, 2006. The Company has released all subcontractors associated with the project and will not resume work until an agreement is in place to compensate the Company for prior work and any additional work to be performed in the future.

As a result of the significant increase in revenues and decrease in cost of sales noted previously, gross margins have increased to 43.3% for the three months ended July 31, 2006 compared to 29.0% for the prior year first quarter. The current year margins are representative of the margins the Company anticipates going forward.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 15.0% or $598,000 to $4.6 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006. However, selling, general and administrative expenses for the current quarter have decreased by $271,000 or 5.6% from the related expense for the three months ended April 30, 2006. The increase over the prior year comparable period is primarily


-16-


due to the amortization expense associated with the intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisitions of VisiCraft, Plexis and ASIX. Intangible asset amortization was $241,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 versus $112,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2005. In addition, commission expense has increased by $73,000 quarter over quarter. The remaining increase is due to the addition of key sales, marketing and development personnel associated with the Plexis and ASIX acquisitions, offset by the decline attributable to the restructuring discussed in Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

As a result of the factors noted above, the Company's operating income increased by $1.3 million to $60,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 from an operating loss of $1.3 million for the comparable prior year period.

Net other income for the current quarter was $23,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 versus $76,000 for the prior year first quarter. This income consists of interest earned on the Company's cash balances, as well as rental income associated with the lease of a portion of its corporate headquarters. The decrease from the prior year is due to increased interest expense associated with seller financed notes on the Company's acquisitions occurring in November 2005 and February 2006

The Company's provision (credit) for income taxes generally fluctuates with the level of pretax income or loss. The effective tax rate was 38% for both the quarter ended July 31, 2006 and 2005. This is comprised of 34% for the federal provision (credit) and 4% for various state provisions (credits). The Company anticipates that the effective rate for the balance of fiscal year 2007 will be approximately 38%.

The Company reported net income of $52,000 or $0.01 per diluted share for the current year first quarter ended July 31, 2006 versus a net loss of $738,000 or $0.17 per diluted share for the comparable prior year quarter.

Diluted weighted average outstanding common shares increased by approximately 676,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 over the prior year comparable period. This increase was primarily due to the issuance of shares in connection with the acquisition of ASIX effective February 1, 2006 as well as the issuance of shares associated with the Company's stock plans.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

At July 31, 2006, the Company had working capital of $5.0 million compared to $4.7 million at April 30, 2006. These levels reflect current ratios of 1.31 and 1.25, respectively.

Shareholders' equity at July 31, 2006 increased by $207,000 to $23.2 million from the balance reported at April 30, 2006 as a result of $52,000 of net income for the three months ended July 31, 2006 as well as $52,000 of employee stock purchases and $122,000 of deferred stock compensation expense. These increases were slightly offset by $19,000 of Company stock that was repurchased from certain executives to cover the tax consequences of restricted stock vesting. Book value per share has increased slightly to $4.56 as of July 31, 2006 from $4.53 at April 30, 2006. Book value per share as of July 31, 2006 was calculated by dividing total shareholders' equity of $23.2 million by total shares outstanding of 5,102,507.


-17-


Net capital expenditures decreased by $90,000 or 45.3% to $109,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2006. This decrease was primarily due to the restructuring that occurred during the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, which resulted in the redeployment of fixed assets throughout the organization and reduced the purchasing requirements of computers and related software during the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Current and prior year capital expenditures primarily relate to purchases or upgrades of computer hardware and software used by the Company's development and support personnel.

The Company has continued to invest significantly in its new GRM® software suite, as well as its other software products in Indiana, Ohio and Florida. Total research and development costs included in expense were $1.9 million for the three months ended July 31, 2006 compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2005. These amounts include $408,000 and $426,000 of software amortization expense for the three months ended July 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Software amortization expense is included in cost of revenues. In addition, the Company capitalized approximately $456,000 of software costs in accordance with FASB Statement No. 86 for the three months ended July 31, 2006 compared to $464,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2005.

The Company has applied for patents on its iFramework tool, which provides a shared technical platform for all Manatron software in the suite and is being built on Microsoft's .NET framework. A major goal is to produce a feature-rich suite of software that can be deployed across the Company's entire client-base and into new geography. The Company has proven that this can be done with its CAMA software as it is running in approximately 300 jurisdictions in over 20 states. Manatron's GRM® system is currently live in Gwinnett County, Georgia; Payette County, Idaho and Kenai, Alaska and in process of implementation in the States of Arizona and Minnesota; Washoe County, Nevada; Horry County, South Carolina; Williamson County, Tennessee and the City of Virginia Beach. The iFramework toolset will allow the software to be more easily modified to include additional states as the Company enters new markets.

Since the Company's revenues are generated from contracts with local governmental entities, it is not uncommon for certain of its accounts receivable to remain outstanding for approximately three to four months, thereby having a negative impact upon cash flow.

On January 14, 2005, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Loan Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Comerica Bank, which superseded and replaced the Company's previous credit agreement with the bank dated May 17, 2002. Under the Credit Agreement, Comerica Bank provided the Company with a $6 million revolving line of credit. The Company's borrowing limit was no longer limited based on the ratio of the Company's funded debt to EBITDA, as was the case under the previous credit agreement. Any principal outstanding under the Credit Agreement would bear interest at a rate equal to the bank's prime rate less 0.5%. The Credit Agreement was unsecured and terminated on August 1, 2007, the date on which payment of any amounts owing under it were due. The Credit Agreement contained standard events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, which included the maintenance of financial ratios based on the Company's tangible-net-worth and debt, as well as on its current assets and liabilities.


-18-


Effective June 29, 2006, the Company amended its Revolving Credit Agreement with Comerica Bank. The amendment allows the Company to borrow up to $10,000,000 through April 1, 2007, after which point the amount available shall be reduced to $8,000,000. In addition, the Company's debt covenants have been revised to account for its financial structure subsequent to the ASIX acquisition. As of July 31, 2006, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under this credit agreement.

The Company anticipates that its line of credit, together with its existing cash of approximately $2.1 million and cash generated from future operations will be sufficient for the Company to meet its working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

The first quarter of fiscal year 2007 was the Company's 20th consecutive quarter with no bank debt. However, the Company has executed several seller financed notes payable in connection with its recent acquisitions with the following maturities:

Effective July 31, 2006, the Company paid the remaining $400,000 outstanding under the note payable associated with the Plexis acquisition. The Company did this as this note accrued interest at prime plus 2% and the Company can borrow at prime less 0.5%. The interest rates on the remaining notes associated with the VisiCraft and ASIX acquisitions are favorable to the Company.

On September 7, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $1 million of the Company's common stock over the subsequent 12 months. The Company repurchased 20,000 shares under this program during fiscal year 2006 at an average price of $8.31 per share, totaling $166,200. The Company did not repurchase any shares under these programs during the three months ended July 31, 2006.

The Company cannot precisely determine the effect of inflation on its business. The Company continues, however, to experience relatively stable costs for its inventory as the computer hardware market is very competitive. Inflationary price increases related to labor and overhead will have a negative effect on the Company's cash flow and net income to the extent that they cannot be offset through improved productivity and price increases.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company's primary market risk exposure is a potential change in interest rates in connection with its outstanding line of credit. As of July 31, 2006, there were no borrowings outstanding under this line of credit. However, the Company does have the ability to draw on this line of credit, which could result in a potential interest rate risk. Based on the Company's historical

borrowings, a change of 1% in interest rates would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. The Company does not enter into market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

The Company does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature or categories of the primary market risk exposures, or the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss to the Company. As of the date of this report, the Company does not know of or expect any material changes in the general nature of its primary market risk exposure in the near term. In this discussion, "near term" means a period of one year following the date of the most recent balance sheet contained in this report.

Prevailing interest rates and interest rate relationships are primarily determined by market factors that are beyond the Company's control. All information provided in response to this item consists of forward-looking statements. Reference is made to the section captioned "Forward-Looking Statements" before Part I of this report for a discussion of the limitations on the registrant's responsibility for such statements.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on such evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2006 that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
