1. Nature of Business

     Fair Isaac Corporation

          Incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, Fair Isaac Corporation is a provider of analytic, software and data management products and services that enable businesses to automate and improve decisions. Fair Isaac Corporation provides a range of analytical solutions, credit scoring and credit account management products and services to banks, credit reporting agencies, credit card processing agencies, insurers, retailers, telecommunications providers, healthcare organizations and government agencies.

          In these condensed consolidated financial statements, Fair Isaac Corporation is referred to as “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Fair Isaac.”

     Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

          We have prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the standards of accounting measurement set forth in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28 and any amendments thereto adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Consequently, we have not necessarily included in this Form 10-Q all information and footnotes required for audited financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented in our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 25, 2005. The interim financial information contained in this report is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year.

          The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fair Isaac and its subsidiaries. All inter company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     Use of Estimates

          The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, assessing the following: the recoverability of accounts receivable, goodwill, intangible assets, software development costs and deferred tax assets; estimated losses associated with contingencies and litigation; the ability to estimate hours in connection with fixed-fee service contracts, the ability to estimate transactional-based revenues for which actual transaction volumes have not yet been received, and the determination of whether fees are fixed or determinable and collection is probable or reasonably assured.

     Stock-Based Compensation

          We measure compensation expense for our employee stock-based compensation awards using the intrinsic value method and provide pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if a fair value method had been applied. Therefore, compensation cost for fixed employee stock awards is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of our common stock at the grant date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock and is amortized over the related service periods using the straight-line method. Compensation cost for variable employee stock awards is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of our common stock at the end of the reporting period over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock, and the compensation cost is amortized over the related service periods for each vesting date using a graded vesting schedule as required under the provisions of FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans. Compensation expense previously recorded for vested variable awards is reversed when the measurement of compensation cost decreases from prior measurements. Compensation expense previously recorded for unvested employee stock- based compensation awards that are forfeited upon employee termination is reversed in the period of forfeiture.

          The following table compares net income and earnings per share as reported to the pro forma amounts that would be reported had compensation expense been recognized for our stock-based compensation plans on a fair value basis.

     Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement

          We adopted the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) consensus with respect to Issue No. 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Instruments on Diluted Earnings Per Share. See the further discussion regarding our adoption of this consensus in footnote 6, Earnings Per Share.

     New Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

          In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) addresses all forms of share-based payment awards, including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. SFAS 123(R) will require us to expense share based-payment awards with compensation cost for share based-payment transactions measured at fair value. Prior to SFAS 123(R), only certain pro forma disclosures of fair value were required. The adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated net income and net income per share. SFAS 123(R) requires us to record compensation expense for all awards granted after adopting the standard as well as record compensation expense for the unvested portion of previously granted awards outstanding at the date of adoption. In addition, we may elect to restate prior period financial statements, basing the amounts on the expense previously calculated and reported in pro forma footnote disclosures. The FASB originally stated a preference for a lattice model because it believed that a lattice model more fully captures the unique characteristics of employee stock options in the estimate of fair value, as compared to the Black-Scholes model that we currently use for our footnote disclosure. The FASB decided to remove its explicit preference for a lattice model and not require a single valuation methodology. In March 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”), which expresses views of the SEC staff regarding the application of SFAS 123(R). Among other things, SAB 107 provides interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, as well as provides the SEC staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. We are required to adopt the new accounting provisions of SFAS 123(R) no later than the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2006. We have not yet determined whether we will use the Black-Scholes or other valuation models in our final adoption of SFAS 123(R).

     Reclassification

     Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In connection with the preparation of this report, we concluded that it was appropriate to classify auction rate securities as marketable securities available for sale. Auction rate securities are variable-rate debt instruments with longer stated maturities whose interest rates are reset at

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

predetermined short-term intervals through a dutch auction system. Previously, we classified such instruments as cash and cash equivalents. Accordingly, we have reclassified $25.8 million of auction rate securities that were outstanding at September 30, 2004 from cash and cash equivalents to marketable securities available for sale, current portion. We have also made a corresponding reclassification to the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2004, to reflect the gross purchases and sales of these securities as investing activities rather than as a component of cash and cash equivalents. Accordingly, in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2004, we have included an additional $78.8 million in purchases of marketable securities and an additional $84.7 million in proceeds from sales of marketable securities. This change in classification did not affect previously reported results of operations for any period.

2. Acquisition of Braun Consulting, Inc.

     On November 10, 2004, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Braun Consulting, Inc. (“Braun”), a marketing strategy and technology consulting firm, in exchange for cash consideration of $37.1 million and contingent cash consideration of $3.3 million payable to a former Braun shareholder if certain revenue parameters are achieved during either the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, the two fiscal years ended September 30, 2006, or the three fiscal years ended September 30, 2007. The acquisition of Braun was consummated principally to complement our marketing solutions and services related to marketing strategy and customer management technologies, as well as to expand our capabilities in markets targeted for growth, including healthcare, retail and pharmaceuticals. Braun is included in the Professional Services business segment. The results of operations of Braun have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income beginning on November 10, 2004.

     The total purchase price, excluding contingent consideration, is summarized as follows (in thousands):

     In connection with the acquisition, we issued 182,000 options to purchase Fair Isaac common stock in exchange for Braun options. The table above reflects the total fair value of these options based on application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model, less the portion of the intrinsic value related to unvested options, which was allocated to unearned compensation.

     Our preliminary allocation of the purchase price was as follows (in thousands):

     The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is pending completion of an analysis of the recoverability of certain deferred tax assets acquired and final resolution of exit costs related to certain obligations. The acquired customer contracts and relationships, which include backlog, have a weighted average useful life of approximately 4.5 years and are being amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The goodwill was allocated to our Professional Services operating segment, and will not be deductible for tax purposes.

     Unaudited Pro Forma Results of Operations

          The following unaudited pro forma results of operations present the impact on our results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and for six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, as if our Braun acquisition had occurred on October 1, 2003 and 2004, prospectively.

3. Disposition of London Bridge Phoenix Software, Inc.

     On November 12, 2004, we sold all of the issued and outstanding stock of London Bridge Phoenix Software, Inc. (“Phoenix”) to Harland Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Harland”). In connection with this disposition, we sold all of the Phoenix related assets, including all Phoenix bank processing solutions, the associated customer base, intellectual property rights and other related assets to Harland in exchange for cash consideration of $22.7 million and the assumption of substantially all Phoenix liabilities by Harland. Phoenix was an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary that we acquired in connection with our acquisition of London Bridge Software Holdings plc (“London Bridge”) in May 2004. As this disposition occurred shortly after the London Bridge acquisition and the fair value of Phoenix did not change significantly from the date of the London Bridge acquisition, no gain or loss was recorded in connection with this transaction. The excess of the consideration received over the book value of the net assets sold in this disposition, amounting to $21.7 million, was recorded as a decrease to goodwill in the Strategy Machines Solutions segment.

4. Amortization of Intangible Assets

     Amortization expense associated with our intangible assets, which has been reflected as a separate operating expense caption within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income, consisted of the following:

     Cost of revenues reflects our amortization of completed technology, and selling, general and administrative expenses reflects our amortization of other intangible assets. Intangible assets were $127.7 million and $135.8 million, net of accumulated amortization of $47.3 million and $35.0 million, as of March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004, respectively.

     5. Restructuring and Acquisition-Related Expenses

     In connection with our acquisition of Braun on November 10, 2004, we completed a plan to reduce Braun staff and accordingly recorded a $1.3 million employee separation accrual. This amount was recorded to goodwill in connection with our preliminary allocation of the Braun purchase price. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, we incurred an additional $1.2 million of lease separation costs related to our London Bridge acquisition.

     The following table summarizes our restructuring and acquisition-related accruals associated with our November 2004 Braun acquisition, fiscal 2004 London Bridge acquisition, fiscal 2003 NAREX Inc. acquisition, fiscal 2002 HNC Software Inc. acquisition and certain other Fair Isaac facility closures. The current portion and non-current portion is recorded in other accrued current liabilities and other long-term liabilities within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

6. Earnings Per Share

     The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”):

     The computation of diluted EPS for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, excludes options to purchase approximately 3,898,000 and 995,000 shares of common stock, respectively, and for the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, excludes options to purchase approximately 4,087,000 and 801,000 shares of common stock, respectively, because the options’ exercise prices exceeded the average market price of our common stock in these periods and their inclusion would be antidilutive. On October 13, 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF with respect to Issue No. 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Instruments on Diluted Earnings Per Share. This consensus requires us to consider all instruments with contingent conversion features that are based on the market price of our own stock in our diluted earnings per share calculation, regardless of whether the market price conversion triggers are then met. The computation for diluted EPS for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 includes approximately 9,000,000 and 9,101,000 shares of common stock, respectively, and for the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 includes approximately 9,050,000 and 9,101,000 shares of common stock, respectively, issuable upon conversion of our 1.5% Senior Convertible Notes (“Senior Notes”).

     Our Senior Notes become convertible into shares of Fair Isaac common stock, subject to the conditions described below, at an initial conversion price of $43.9525 per share, subject to adjustments for certain events. The initial conversion price is equivalent to a conversion rate of approximately 22.7518 shares of Fair Isaac common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Senior Notes. Holders may surrender their Senior Notes for conversion, if any of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) prior to August 15, 2021,

FAIR ISAAC CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

during any fiscal quarter, if the closing price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is more than 120% of the conversion price per share of our common stock on the corresponding trading day; (ii) at any time after the closing sale price of our common stock on any date after August 15, 2021 is more than 120% of the then current conversion price; (iii) during the five consecutive business day period following any 10 consecutive trading day period in which the average trading price of a Senior Note was less than 98% of the average sale price of our common stock during such 10 trading day period multiplied by the applicable conversion rate; provided, however, if, on the day before the conversion date, the closing price of our common stock is greater than 100% of the conversion price but less than or equal to 120% of the conversion price, then holders converting their notes may receive, in lieu of our common stock based on the applicable conversion rate, at our option, cash or common stock with a value equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes on the conversion date; (iv) if we have called the Senior Notes for redemption; or (v) if we make certain distributions to holders of our common stock or we enter into specified corporate transactions. The conversion price of the Senior Notes will be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain dilutive events as described in the indenture, which include but are not limited to: (i) dividends, distributions, subdivisions, or combinations of our common stock; (ii) issuance of rights or warrants for the purchase of our common stock under certain circumstances; (iii) the distribution to all or substantially all holders of our common stock of shares of our capital stock, evidences of indebtedness, or other non-cash assets, or rights or warrants; (iv) the cash dividend or distribution to all or substantially all holders of our common stock in excess of certain levels; and (v) certain tender offer activities by us or any of our subsidiaries.

     On March 31, 2005, we completed an exchange offer for the Senior Notes, whereby holders of approximately 99.9% of the total principal amount of our Senior Notes exchanged their existing securities for 1.5% Senior Convertible Notes, Series B (“New Notes”). The terms of the New Notes are similar to the terms of the Senior Notes described above, except that: (i) upon conversion, we will pay holders cash in an amount equal to the lesser of the principal amount of such notes and the conversion value of such notes, and to the extent such conversion value exceeds the principal amount of the notes, the remainder of the conversion obligation in cash or common shares or combination thereof; (ii) in the event of a change of control, we may be required in certain circumstances to pay a make-whole premium on the New Notes converted in connection with the change of control and (iii) if the conversion condition in the second clause (iii) in the third paragraph preceding this paragraph is triggered and the closing price of our common stock is greater than 100% of the conversion price but less than or equal to 120% of the conversion price, the holders converting New Notes shall receive cash with a value equal to 100% of the principal amount of New Notes on the conversion date. We incurred approximately $1.4 million of professional fees associated with the exchange offer, which were expensed as incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

     Effective with the completed exchange offer on March 31, 2005, the dilutive effect of the New Notes will be calculated using the treasury stock method, which currently are not dilutive to our earnings per share based on the price of our common stock.

7. Segment Information

     We are organized into the following four reportable segments, to align with the internal management of our worldwide business operations based on product and service offerings:

     Our Chief Executive Officer evaluates segment financial performance based on segment revenues and operating income. Segment operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, consulting, travel, depreciation and amortization. Indirect costs are allocated to the segments generally based on relative segment revenues, fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. Our Chief Executive Officer does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on its respective assets or capital expenditures; rather, depreciation and amortization amounts are allocated to the segments from their internal cost centers as described above.

8. Income Taxes

     Our effective tax rate was 25.6% and 38.2% during the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 31.6% and 38% during the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Our effective tax rate in the current quarter was reduced by a $6.0 million adjustment that resulted from the recognition of tax benefits related to prior years. This adjustment was the result of a recently completed tax study performed by Fair Isaac with its outside advisors that identified additional federal and state tax credits and other deductions related to prior years’ tax returns. The adjustment reflects our estimate of the effect of amending our tax returns for 1998 through 2003 to reflect the impact of these items. Excluding the adjustment, the effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 would have been 38.5%. For the six months ended March 31, 2005, tax expense was also reduced by a $0.3 million adjustment due to the recognition of a prior year tax benefit for U.S federal research and development tax credits. We were unable to recognize this tax benefit last year as the legislation that provided this credit was not enacted until the first quarter of our current fiscal year. This legislation allowed us to retroactively recognize this tax benefit. Excluding these adjustments, the effective tax rate for the six months ended March 31, 2005 would have been 38.5%.

9. Contingencies

     We are in disputes with certain customers regarding amounts owed in connection with the sale of several of our products and services. In addition, we have also had claims asserted against us in putative class actions involving the sale of certain of our consumer products. We also have had claims asserted by former employees relating to compensation and other employment matters. We are also involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that none of these aforementioned claims or actions will result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated results of operations, liquidity or financial condition. However, the amount or range of any potential liabilities associated with these claims and actions, if any, cannot be determined with certainty.

     Customer Claim

     We received a demand for up to $20 million from a customer asserting that our performance under a professional services contract has caused it to incur damages. We believe that the claim is without merit and intend to contest it vigorously. We also believe that the resolution of this claim will not result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated financial condition.

     Braun Consulting, Inc.

     Braun (which we acquired in November 2004) was a defendant in a lawsuit filed on November 26, 2001, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Case No. 01 CV 10629) that alleges violations of federal securities laws in connection with Braun’s initial public offering in August 1999. This lawsuit is among approximately 300 coordinated putative class actions against certain issuers, their officers and directors, and underwriters with respect to such issuers’ initial public offerings. As successor in interest to Braun we have entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement, pursuant to a Memorandum of Understanding, along with most of the other defendant issuers in this coordinated litigation, whereby such issuers and their officers and directors will be dismissed with prejudice, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among others, approval of the court. Under the terms of this agreement, we will not pay any amount of the settlement.

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

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). In addition, certain statements in our future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), in press releases, and in oral and written statements made by us or with our approval that are not statements of historical fact constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) projections of revenue, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, the payment or nonpayment of dividends, capital structure and other statements concerning future financial performance; (ii) statements of our plans and objectives by our management or Board of Directors, including those relating to products or services; (iii) statements of assumptions underlying such statements; (iv) statements regarding business relationships with vendors, customers or collaborators; and (v) statements regarding products, their characteristics, performance, sales potential or effect in the hands of customers. Words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “targeted,” “should,” “potential,” “goals,” “strategy,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those described in Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Risk Factors, below. The performance of our business and our securities may be adversely affected by these factors and by other factors common to other businesses and investments, or to the general economy. Forward-looking statements are qualified by some or all of these risk factors. Therefore, you should consider these risk factors with caution and form your own critical and independent conclusions about the likely effect of these risk factors on our future performance. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which statements are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances. Readers should carefully review the disclosures and the risk factors described in this and other documents we file from time to time with the SEC, including our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

     We are a leader in Enterprise Decision Management solutions that enable businesses to automate and improve their decisions. Our predictive modeling, decision analysis, intelligence management, decision management systems and consulting services power billions of customer decisions each year. We help companies acquire customers more efficiently, increase customer value, reduce fraud and credit losses, lower operating expenses and enter new markets more profitably. Most leading banks and credit card issuers rely on our solutions, as do many insurers, retailers, telecommunications providers, healthcare organizations and government agencies. We also serve consumers through online services that enable people to purchase and understand their FICO scores, the standard measure of credit risk, to manage their financial health.

     Most of our revenues are derived from the sale of products and services within the consumer credit, financial services and insurance industries, and during the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2005, 75% of our revenues were derived from within these industries. A significant portion of our remaining revenues is derived from the telecommunications, healthcare and retail industries, as well as the government sector. Our clients utilize our products and services to facilitate a variety of business processes, including customer marketing and acquisition, account origination, credit and underwriting risk management, fraud loss prevention and control, and client account and policyholder management. A significant portion of our revenues is derived from transactional or unit-based software license fees, annual license fees under long-term software license arrangements, transactional fees derived under scoring, network service or internal hosted software arrangements, and annual software maintenance fees. The recurrence of these revenues is, to a significant degree, dependent upon our clients’ continued usage of our products and services in their business activities. The more significant activities underlying the use of our products in these areas include: credit and debit card usage or active account levels; lending acquisition, origination and account management activity; workers’ compensation and automobile medical injury insurance claims; and wireless and wireline calls and subscriber levels. Approximately 76% and 80% of our revenues during the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and 78% and 80% of our revenues during the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were derived from arrangements with transactional or unit-based pricing. We also derive revenues from other sources which generally do not recur and include, but are not limited to, perpetual or time-based licenses with upfront payment terms, non-recurring professional service arrangements and gain-share arrangements where revenue is derived based on percentages of client revenue growth or cost reductions attributable to our products.

13

     Within a number of our sectors there has recently been a sizable amount of industry consolidation and several of our customers have announced consolidation plans in recent periods. In addition, many of our sectors are experiencing increased levels of competition. As a result of these factors, we believe that future revenues in particular sectors may decline. However, due to the long-term customer arrangements we have with many of our customers, the near term impact of these declines may be more limited in certain sectors.

     One measure used by management as an indicator of our business performance is the volume of new bookings achieved. We define a “new booking” as estimated future contractual revenues, including agreements with perpetual, multi-year and annual terms. New bookings values may include: (i) estimates of variable fee components such as hours to be incurred under new professional services arrangements and customer account or transaction activity for agreements with transactional-based fee arrangements, (ii) additional or expanded business from renewals of contracts, and (iii) to a lesser extent, previous customers that have attrited and been re-sold only as a result of a significant sales effort. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, we achieved new bookings of $136.6 million, including eight deals with bookings values of $3.0 million or more. In comparison, new bookings in the quarter ended March 31, 2004 were $117.0 million, including eight deals with bookings values of $3.0 million or more.

     Management regards the volume of new bookings achieved, among other factors, as an important indicator of future revenues, but they are not comparable to, nor should they be substituted for, an analysis of our revenues, and they are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Risk Factors, below, concerning timing and contingencies affecting product delivery and performance. Although many of our contracts have fixed non-cancelable terms, some of our contracts are terminable by the client on short notice or without notice. Accordingly, we do not believe it is appropriate to characterize all of our new bookings as backlog that will generate future revenue.

     Our revenues derived from clients outside the United States continue to grow, and may in the future grow more rapidly than our revenues from domestic clients. International revenues totaled $50.5 million and $37.8 million during the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing 26% and 22% of total consolidated revenues in each of these periods. International revenues totaled $100.0 million and $75.2 million during the six months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing 26% and 22% of total consolidated revenues in each of these periods. In addition to clients acquired via our acquisitions, we believe that our international growth is a product of successful relationships with third parties that assist in international sales efforts and our own increased sales focus internationally, and we expect that the percentage of our revenues derived from international clients will increase in the future.

     We acquired London Bridge Software Holdings plc (“London Bridge”) in May 2004 and Braun Consulting, Inc. (“Braun”) in November 2004. Results of operations from these acquisitions are included prospectively from the date of acquisition. As a result, our financial results during the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2005 are not directly comparable to those during the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2004 or other quarters prior to any of these acquisitions.

Revenues

     The following table sets forth certain summary information on a segment basis related to our revenues for the fiscal periods indicated.

  Quarter Ended March 31, 2005 Revenues Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2004 Revenues

     The increase in total revenues from the quarter ended March 31, 2004 to the quarter ended March 31, 2005 included a $25.7 million increase in revenues that resulted from our London Bridge and Braun acquisitions in May 2004 and November 2004, respectively.

     Strategy Machine Solutions segment revenues increased due to a $7.4 million increase in revenues from our collection and recovery solutions, a $5.7 million increase in revenues from our mortgage banking solutions, a $3.0 million increase in revenues from our fraud solutions, and a $0.3 million increase in revenues from our other strategy machine solutions, partially offset by a $4.5 million decrease in revenues from our marketing solutions and a $4.2 million decrease in revenues from our insurance and healthcare solutions. The increase in collections and recovery solutions revenues was attributable primarily to increases in license and maintenance revenues related to acquired London Bridge solutions. The increase in mortgage banking solutions revenues was attributable to volumes associated with acquired London Bridge transactional-based agreements as well as an increase in perpetual license agreements. The increase in fraud solutions revenues was attributable to an increase in active accounts and merchant transaction volumes with our existing customer base, and to the cross-selling of additional fraud products. The decrease in marketing solutions revenues was attributable primarily to the loss of two large financial services customers, which resulted from industry consolidation. The decrease in insurance and healthcare solutions revenues was attributable primarily to a decline in bill review volumes associated with our existing customer base, as well as lower claims volumes at some of our key customers.

     Scoring Solutions segment revenues increased due to an increase in revenues derived from risk scoring services at the credit reporting agencies, resulting from increased sales of scores for prescreening activities, and an increase in revenues derived from our own prescreening services.

     During the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, revenues generated from our agreements with Equifax, TransUnion and Experian collectively accounted for approximately 20% and 19%, respectively, of our total company revenues, including revenues from these customers that are recorded in our other segments.

     Professional Services segment revenues increased $12.3 million due to an increase in implementation and precision marketing service revenues resulting from our acquisitions of London Bridge and Braun, respectively, and implementation of Enterprise Decision Management products, partially offset by a net decline of $3.3 million in various other professional service activities.
