Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

FORMULA SYSTEMS (1985) LTD.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries, whose consolidated assets constitute approximately 24% and 21% of total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and whose consolidated revenues constitute approximately 19%, 18% and 20% of total consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The financial statements of those subsidiaries were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of those subsidiaries is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 1, effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted new guidance on accounting for business combinations, consolidation, transactions with non controlling interests. During 2009 the company also adopted new guidance regarding impairment of securities.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors , the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.):

A.	Adoption of Certain New Accounting Standards:

Accounting Standards Codification:

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting"(the “Codification”). This standard replaces SFAS Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes only two levels of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), authoritative and nonauthoritative. The ASC has become the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative

This standard is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009

The adoption of the Codification changed the Company’s references to GAAP accounting standards but did not impact the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

Business Combinations and Non-controlling Interests

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard included in ASC 805, "Business Combinations" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 141(R), Business Combinations). The new standard applies to all transactions or other events in which an entity obtains control of one or more businesses. Additionally, the new standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement date for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose additional information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. The Company’s adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard included in ASC810, "Consolidations" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements). The new accounting standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interests (or non-controlling interests) in a subsidiary and for the consolidation of a subsidiary by requiring all non-controlling interests in subsidiaries be reported in the same way, as equity in the consolidated financial statements. As such, this guidance has eliminated the diversity in accounting for transactions between an entity and non-controlling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. The Company’s adoption of the new accounting standard resulted in recording non-controlling interests in equity at the current year and in comparative numbers.

A.	Adoption of Certain New Accounting Standards (Cont.)

Business Combinations and Non-controlling Interests (Cont.):

Until December 31, 2008 gain on realization of shareholdings includes the results of realization of the Company’s shareholdings in investees arising either on the sale of such shareholdings or from the issuance of stock by the investees to third parties. The Company charged such results to the statement of operations, provided that the conditions stipulated by SAB 51 for such recognition have been met. When conditions are not met gain is recognized as part of APIC.

Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance for subsequent events. The new guidance, which is part of ASC 855, "Subsequent Events" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 165, Subsequent Events) is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, this guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. ASC 855 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. During that period, except as mention in Note 14, no material subsequent events came to the Company’s attention

B.	Functional and Reporting Currency:

Beginning in 2007, the Company changed its functional currency from New Israeli Shekel (NIS) to the United States dollar (“dollar”). This was done according to a change in economic and circumstance factors for the Company, as mentioned in ASC No. 830 "Foreign Currency Matters" (formerly FAS Statement No. 52 "foreign currency translation") ("ASC 830"). Prior to 2007, Formula operated primarily in the economic environment of the NIS and its functional currency was the NIS. The functional currencies of Formula's subsidiaries are NIS and dollar. Formula has elected to use dollar as its reporting currency for all years presented.

Formula translates the financial statements of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is NIS, into dollar, under the principles described in ASC 830. Assets and liabilities have been translated at period-end exchange rates. Results of operations have been translated at the exchange rate at the dates on which those transactions occurred or at an average rate. Formula presents differences resulting from translation in equity under "accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)".

C.	Use of Estimates and Assumptions in the Preparation of the Financial Statements:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and various assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.The actual results may differ from these estimates.

D.	Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include Formula’s financial statements as well as those of its subsidiaries in which it has controlling interests. Acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for under the acquisition method. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

E.	Fair Value Measurement:

The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820-10 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (formerly FAS Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”), with respect to non-financial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements (refer to Note 4).

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard included in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" (“ASC 820”) (formerly FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157), which delayed the effective date for disclosing the fair value of all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually). This standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Effective April 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820 (formerly FSP 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly), requires disclosure of the inputs and valuation techniques used, as well as any changes in valuation techniques and inputs used during the period, to measure fair value in interim and annual periods. In addition, the presentation of the fair value hierarchy is required to be presented by major security type as described in ASC 320 "Investments - Debt and Equity Securities". The adoption of the new standard on April 1, 2009 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

F.	Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and Cash equivalents are considered by the Company to be highly-liquid investments, including, inter-alia, short-term deposits with banks, which the maturity dates are less than three months at the time of acquisition and which are unrestricted.

G.	Investments:

Investments in non-marketable securities of companies in which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policy are recorded at cost.

The Company accounts for investments in marketable equity securities and debt securities in accordance with ASC 320 "Investments- Debt and Equity Securities" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities") ("ASC 320"). Marketable equity securities and debt securities that are classified as "trading" or as "available-for-sale" are reported at fair value.

Unrealized gains and losses from marketable securities classified as "available for sale" are excluded from earnings and are reported as a component in equity under "accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)". Unrealized gains and losses from marketable securities classified as "trading" are reported in the statements of operations.

Investments are periodically reviewed to determine whether other-than-temporary impairment in value has occurred, in which case the investment is written down to its fair value, through the statements of operations. In accordance with ASC 320, the Company recognizes an impairment charge when a decline in the fair value of its investments below the cost basis is considered to be other-than-temporary.

Effective April 2009, the Company adopted new guidance for the accounting for other-than-temporary impairments ("OTTI"). Under the new guidance, which is part of ASC 320, "Investments — Debt and Equity Securities" (formerly FSP 115-2 and 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments) that changed the impairment and presentation model for its available-for-sale debt securities. Under the amended impairment model, an OTTI loss is recognized in earnings if the entity has the intent to sell the debt security, or if it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. However, if an entity does not expect to sell a debt security, it will still need to evaluate expected cash flows to be received and determine if a credit loss exists. In the event of a credit loss, only the amount of impairment associated with the credit loss is recognized currently in earnings. Amounts relating to factors other than credit losses are recorded in other comprehensive income.

G.	Investments (Cont.):

The new guidance is effective periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company’s adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

H.	Inventory:

Inventory is comprised of hardware and software.

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined on the “first in - first out” basis for hardware.

I.	Investments in Affiliates:

Affiliates are companies over which significant influence is exercised, but which are not consolidated subsidiaries, and are accounted for by the equity method, net of write-down for decrease in value, which is not of a temporary nature.

J.	Property, Plants and Equipment, net:

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The following are the annual depreciation rates:

	%

Computers and equipment	6-33
Motor vehicles	15
Buildings	2-4
Leasehold improvements	-*

* Over the shorter of the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset.

Goodwill:

The Company applies ASC 350, “Intangible - Goodwill and Other” (formerly SFAS Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”) ("ASC 350"). ASC 350 requires goodwill to be tested for impairment on an annual basis and more frequently in certain circumstances, and written down when impaired rather than being amortized. Furthermore, ASC 350 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to be amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined to be indefinite. The Company has selected December 31st as the date on which it will perform its annual goodwill impairment test.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.):

K.	Goodwill (Cont.):

As required by ASC 350, the impairment test is accomplished using a two- step approach. The first step of the goodwill impairment test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. As required by ASC 350, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value ('step 1') If the fair value exceeds the carrying value of the reporting unit net assets, goodwill is considered not impaired, and no further testing is required. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the implied fair value of goodwill is determined by subtracting the fair value of all the identifiable net assets from the fair value of the reporting unit. An impairment loss is recorded for the excess, if any; of the carrying value of goodwill over its implied fair value ('step 2'). At December 31, 2009, the market capitalization of one reporting unit was below its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of this reporting unit using the Income Approach, which utilizes a discounted cash flow model, as it believes that this approach best approximates its fair value at this time. Assumptions related to revenue, gross profit, operating expenses, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital, interest, capital expenditures, cash flows, and market conditions are inherent in developing the discounted cash flow model. Additionally, the Company evaluated the reasonableness of the estimated fair value of its reporting unit by reconciling to its market capitalization. The ability to reconcile the gap between the market capitalization and the fair value depends on various factors, some of which are quantitative, such as an estimated control premium that an investor would be willing to pay for a controlling interests in the Company, and some of which are qualitative and involve management judgment, including stable relatively high backlog and growing pipe line.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, no impairment was required.

L.	Software Development Costs:

Development costs of software, which is intended for sales that are incurred after the establishment of technological feasibility of the relevant product, are capitalized. Technological feasibility is determined when detailed program design is completed and verified in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 985 "Software" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed").

Software development costs incurred before technological feasibility has been established are charged to the statements of operations as incurred.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.):

L.	Software Development Costs (Cont.):

Research and development costs incurred in the process of software development before establishment of technological feasibility are charged to expenses as incurred. Costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility are capitalized according to the principles set forth in ASC 985-20, "Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed").

The Company's and its subsidiaries' technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program design or working model.

Research and development costs incurred in the process of developing product improvements are generally charged to expenses as incurred.

Capitalized software costs are amortized on a product by product basis. Amortization equals the greater of the amount computed using the: (i) ratio of current gross revenues from sales of the software to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues from sales of that software, or (ii) the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the product (three to six years). The Company assesses the recoverability of these intangible assets on a regular basis by determining whether the amortization of the asset over its remaining life can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows from the specific software product sold. During the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, no impairment was required.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, consolidated subsidiaries capitalized software development costs aggregated to $6.8 million (2008 - $6.4 million, 2007 - $6.0 million) and amortized capitalized software development costs aggregated to $8.4 million (2008 - $7.0 million, 2007 - $6.2 million).

M.	Other Intangible Assets:

Other intangible assets are comprised of customer's related intangible assets and acquired technology and are amortized over their useful lives using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used up. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method as follows:

	Prepaid royalties		15 years

	Distribution rights		5 years

	Technology, usage rights and other intangible assets		3-8 years

The company evaluate every year the remaining useful life of the intangible assets.

During 2009, 2008 and 2007, no impairment was required.

N.	Impairment in Value of Long-Lived Assets:

The Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (formerly SFAS Statement No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”) ("ASC 360"), whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 no impairment was required. During 2007, impairment loss in the amount of $137 thousand was recorded.

O.	Severance Pay:

The Company’s liability for severance pay to its employees pursuant to Israeli law and employment agreements is covered in part by managers’ insurance policies, for which the Company makes monthly payments. These funds are recorded as assets in the Company's balance sheet. The Company can only make withdrawals from these funds for payments of severance pay. The severance pay liability is calculated on the basis of eligibility for one month’s salary for each year of service, based on the most recent salary of each employee.

Pursuant to Section 14 of the Severance Compensation Law, 1963 ("Section 14"), certain employees of the Company who are subjected to this section, are entitled to monthly deposits, at a rate of 8.33% of their monthly salary, made in their name with insurance companies. Payments in accordance with Section 14 release the Company from any future severance payments in respect of those employees. Deposits under Section 14 are not recorded as an asset in the Company's balance sheet.

Total expenses (gain) in respect of severance pay for the years 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $(1.06) million, $7.4 million and $9.3 million, respectively.

P.	Revenue Recognition:

Revenues derived from software license agreements are recognized in accordance ASC 985 "Software" (formerly SOP 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition") ("ASC 985"), upon delivery of the software when collection is probable, where the license fee is otherwise fixed or determinable, and when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists.

In addition, there are certain arrangements involving multiple elements such as software product, maintenance and support. For these agreements ASC 985 requires that the fair value of each component in a multiple element arrangement will be determined based on the vendor's specific objective evidence ("VSOE") for that element, and revenue is allocated to each component based on its fair value. ASC 985 requires that revenue be recognized in accordance with the "residual method" when VSOE does not exists for all the delivered elements and exist for all the delivered elements, and all other ASC 985 criteria are met. Under the residual method, any discount in the arrangement is allocated to the delivered elements. The VSOE of post contract support ("PCS") is based on the price charged when PCS sold separately or renewed. The VSOE of consulting services is based on the price charged when the consulting services sold separately based on a time and material basis.

Revenues from consulting services, on hourly basis, are recognized as the services are rendered.

Revenues from maintenance and training are recognized over the service period.

Revenues from long term projects are recognized in accordance with ASC 605-35-25 (formerly SOP 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type Contracts”), based on the percentage of completion method. Provision for estimated losses is recorded on the amount of the estimated losses on the entire contract in the period in which such losses first become evident. These revenues are included in the proprietary software products segment.

Revenues from sale of hardware are recognized when the merchandise is delivered to the customer, provided no significant vendor obligations remain.

The Company generally does not grant a right of return to its customers. When a right of return exists, revenue is deferred until the right of return expires, at which time revenue is recognized provided that all other revenue recognition criteria are met.

Deferred revenue includes unearned amounts received under maintenance contracts and amounts received from customers but not yet recognized as revenues. Payments for maintenance fees are generally made in advance and are nonrefundable.

Tax collected from customers and remitted to governments authorities (including VAT) are presented in statements of operations on a net basis.

Under ASC 985-605, revenues from software product licenses are recognized upon delivery of the software provided there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the related receivable is probable and no further obligations exist. Revenues under multiple-element arrangements, which may include software licenses, support and maintenance, and training and consulting services, are allocated to each element under the "residual method" when Vendor Specific Objective Evidence ("VSOE") of Fair Value exists for all undelivered elements and VSOE does not exist for all of the delivered elements. VSOE is determined for support and maintenance, training and consulting services based on the price charged when the respective elements are sold separately or renewed.

The Company charges support and maintenance renewals at a fixed percentage of the total price of the licensed software products purchased by the customer. Under the residual method, the Company defers revenues related to the undelivered elements based on their VSOE of fair value and recognizes the remaining arrangement fee for the delivered elements.

IT outsourcing services that mainly include maintenance of customers' applications integrated on the Company's license performed on a fixed fee basis are recognized on a straight line basis over the contractual period that the services are rendered, since no other pattern of outputs is discernible. Revenues from IT outsourcing services that are performed on a "time and materials" basis are recognized as services are performed.

Q.	Provision for Warranty:

In light of past experience, the Company does not record any provision for warranties in respect of their products and services.

R.	Advertising Costs:

The Company records advertising expenses as incurred. Advertising costs were recorded at the amount of $2.4 million, $5.5 million, and $5.2 million in the years 2009, 2008, 2007 respectively.

S.	Income Taxes:

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, when it’s more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or non-current based on the expected reversal dates of the specific temporary differences.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted ASC 740 “Income Taxes" (formerly FIN 48) (“ASC 740”). Upon the adoption of a new pronouncement which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, the Company should record accruals for uncertain tax positions. Those accruals should record to the extent that the Company concludes that a tax position is not sustainable under a “more-likely-than-not” standard.

In addition, the Company should classify interest and penalties recognized in the financial statements relating to uncertain tax positions under the provision for income taxes.

T.	Earnings per Share:

Earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260 "Earning per Share" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 128 "Earning per Share) ("ASC 260"). ASC 260 requires the presentation of both basic and diluted EPS.

Basic net earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. The diluted earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year, plus the dilutive potential common shares considered outstanding during the year.

U.	Treasury Shares:

The Company repurchases its shares from time to time and hold them as a treasury shares. These shares are presented as a reduction of equity, at their cost. Gains and losses upon the sale of these shares, net of related income taxes, are recorded to additional paid-in capital.

V.	Concentration of Credit Risks - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:

Most of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 were deposited in Israeli, U.S. and European banks. Therefore the Company is of the opinion that the credit risk in respect of these balances is low.

The Group’s trade receivables are derived from sales to large firm organizations located mainly in North America, Europe and Israel. The Group performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and has established an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors relating to the credit risk of specific customers and other information. In certain circumstances, the Company may require letters of credit, other collateral or additional guarantees. From time to time, the Company sells certain of its accounts receivable to financial institutions, within the normal course of business.

ASC 860, "Transfers and servicing" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities"), establishes a standard for determining when a transfer of financial assets should be accounted for as a sale. The underlying conditions are met for the transfer of financial assets to qualify for accounting as a sale. The transfers of financial assets are typically performed by the sale of receivables to a financial institution. There are no outstanding sales of receivables as of December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

The agreements, pursuant to which the Company sells its trade receivables, are structured such that the Company (i) transfers the proprietary rights in the receivable from the Company to the financial institution; (ii) legally isolates the receivable from the Company’s other assets, and presumptively puts the receivable beyond the legal reach of the Company and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership; (iii) confers on the financial institution the right to pledge or exchange the receivable; and (vi) eliminates the Company’s effective control over the receivable, in the sense that the Company is not entitled and shall not be obligated to repurchase the receivable other than in case of failure by the Company to fulfill its commercial obligation.

The net change in the provision for doubtful accounts charged to general and administrative expenses amounted to $0.5 million, $1.1 million and $0.4 million in the years 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and was determined for specific debts where doubt existed as to their collectability.

W.	Stock based compensation:

The Company applies ASC 718, and ASC 505-50, "Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees", with respect to options and warrants issued to non-employees. ASC 718 requires the use of an option valuation model to measure the fair value of the options and warrants at the measurement date as defined in ASC 505-50.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model, where applicable. Share-based compensation expense recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for 2009, 2008 and 2007 includes compensation expense for share-based awards granted (i) prior to, but not yet vested as of, January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of ASC 718, and (ii) subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.

The Company's' subsidiaries granted options to their employees to purchase shares.

Matrix and Sapiens use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are, expected stock price volatility, and the expected option term. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent periods ending on the grant date, equal to the expected option term. The expected option term represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar options, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock options.

Magic use the Binomial option-pricing model for options granted. The Binomial model considers characteristics of fair value option pricing that are not available under the Black-Scholes model. Similar to the Black-Scholes model, the Binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend yield rate and risk free interest rate. However, in addition, the Binomial model considers specific terms and conditions of the options, such as the contractual term of the option, the probability that the option will be exercised prior to the end of its contractual life and the probability of termination of the option holder in computing the value of the option. For these reasons, Magic believes that the Binomial model provides a fair value that is more representative of actual experience and future expected experience than that calculated using the Black-Scholes model.

X.	Derivatives and Hedging:

The Company accounts for derivatives based on ASC 815, "Derivative and Hedging" (formerly SFAS Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities") ("ASC 815"). According to ASC 815, derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedges of forecasted transactions (i.e., cash flow hedges) are carried at fair value with the effective portion of a derivative's gain or loss recorded in other comprehensive income and subsequently recognized in earnings in the same period or periods in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments that are not designated and qualified as hedging instruments, the gains or losses on the derivative instruments are recognized in current earnings during the period of the change in fair values.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard included in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (SFAS Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS Statement No. 133). The new accounting standard requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Since the new accounting standard only required additional disclosure, the adoption did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Put options which were granted to non-controlling interests during 2007 and 2009 in Matrix have been measured in fair value pursuant to ASC 810 (formerly EITF 00-06 "Accounting for Freestanding Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, the Stock of a Consolidated Subsidiary") and ASC 505 (formerly EITF 08-8 "Accounting for an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) with a Settlement Amount That Is Based on the Stock of an Entity’s Consolidated Subsidiary").

Sapiens also enters into put option contracts to hedge certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The purpose of Sapiens foreign currency hedging activities is to protect Sapiens from risk that the eventual dollar cash flows from international activities will be adversely affected by changes in the exchange rates. Sapiens put option contracts did not qualify as hedging instruments under ASC 815.

Changes in the fair value of put option contracts are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as financial income or expense as applicable.

During 2007-2009 Matrix engaged in SWAP deals to exchange interest which was linked to the CPI. This SWAP deals did not qualify for hedge accounting under ASC 815. Matrix measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC 820. Changes in the fair value are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as financial income or expense as applicable.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective

Accounting for the Transfers of Financial Assets

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS Statement No. 166, "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS Statement No. 140, was adopted into Codification in December 2009 through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2009-16. The new standard eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity’s continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets.

The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt the new guidance in 2010 and is evaluating the impact it will have to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Certain Transactions:

In June 2007 the Company sold its entire holdings in BluePhoenix, for consideration of approximately $64 million. The Company recognized approximately $18 million in capital gain upon completion of the sale. This gain is presented in the statements of operations as income from discontinued operation.

On December 30, 2007, the Company's subsidiary, Magic, sold its holding in, Advanced Answers on Demand Holding Corporation,("AAOD"), a Florida corporation that develops and markets application software targeted at the long-term care industry, to Fortissimo Capital for $17 million, which paid Magic $1 million of the sale price in December 2007 and the remaining $16 million in March 2008. As a result of this sale, the Company recorded a net gain of approximately $9.3 million; this gain is presented in the income statement as an income of discontinued operation.

In addition, as part of the transaction, Magic entered into a three years license agreement with AAOD according to which AAOD will continue to sell Magic’s products, as an OEM partner, in consideration for $3 million, to be paid quarterly over three years starting in 2008.

Note 4 - Fair value measurement:

The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

The fair value of the liabilities is approximately the presented value.

The assumptions included, among others, the following: the underlying structure of the security, the financial standing of the issuer, stated maturities, estimates of the probability of the issue being called at par prior to final maturity, estimates of the probability of defaults and recoveries, auctions failure and successful auction or repurchase at par for each period, expected changes in interest rates paid on the securities, interest rates paid on similar instruments, and an estimated illiquidity discount due to extended redemption periods. Finally, the present value of the future principal and interest payments was discounted at rates considered to reflect current market conditions for each security (See Note 5).

Mainly available for sale securities' interest rates that are reset through a “Dutch” auction each month. The monthly auctions historically have provided a liquid market for these securities. With the liquidity issues experienced in global credit and capital markets, the available for sale securities have experienced multiple failed auctions as the amount of securities submitted for sale has exceeded the amount of purchase orders.

In 2009, while the Company continues to earn interest on the available for sale at the contractual rates, their estimated market value no longer approximates par value. As there was insufficient observable market information available to determine the fair value of most of the available for sale, their fair value was determined based on a valuation (See Note 4).

Note 11 – Debentures (Cont.):

B.	Non-convertible debentures:

The non-convertible debentures were issued by Matrix in August 2007 for an aggregate amount of NIS 250 million (approximately $ 62,000 thousands).

The debentures bear interest at an annual rate of 5.15%. The principal will be paid in four equal annual installments on December 31 of each of the years 2010 through 2013. The principal and interest are linked to the Israeli CPI. On February 21, 2008, Matrix listed the debentures for trading on the TASE.

In 2008, Matrix repurchased debentures value, amounting to $12.6 million of the outstanding debentures. As a result, a $ 500 thousands was recorded as a gain on repurchase of debentures.

C.	Convertible debentures:

During December 2003, Sapiens completed an offering of securities on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") in Israel, resulting in gross proceeds of NIS 75.2 million (approximately $ 17.1 million). The price per unit was NIS 752 (approximately $ 171.1) with 100,000 units sold. Each of the units consists of 800 debentures (series A), two options (series A) exercisable into debentures (series A) and six warrants (series 1) exercisable into Common shares of Sapiens.

The debentures (series A) were linked to the U.S. dollar with a floor exchange rate of NIS 4.394 to the dollar, and bear annual interest at the rate of 6.0%, payable twice a year commencing on June 5, 2004 and ending on December 5, 2009. Principal is payable in four installments on December 5 of the years 2006-2009. The debentures (series A) were convertible into Common shares at a conversion rate of one Common share per each NIS 27 (approximately $ 6.14) amount of the debentures, linked to the NIS/dollar exchange rate, with a floor exchange rate of NIS 4.394 to the dollar.

Each option (series A) was exercisable into 100 debentures (series A) no later than March 3, 2004 at an exercise price of NIS 96 (approximately $ 21.85), of which 179,663 options (series A) were exercised into debentures (series A) in 2004, with a total exercise price of approximately $ 3,800 thousands. 105,225 of the options (series A) were exercised by one of the Company's subsidiaries in Israel. The remaining options expired. All the warrants (series 1) that were exercisable into Common shares of Sapiens expired on November 21, 2007, without being exercised.

The debentures (series A), options (series A) and warrants (series 1) were, traded on TASE only.

D.	Convertible debentures (Cont.):

The conversion feature and the floor rate to the dollar payments were evaluated and determined under ASC 815 to have characteristics of liabilities and therefore, accounted for as derivative liabilities. Each reporting period, these derivative liabilities were marked to fair value with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the aggregate derivative liabilities were $ 0 and $ 900, respectively classified on the balance sheet as "convertible debentures". The valuation of the embedded derivatives was determined by the Black and Scholes model and the Lattice model.

During the years 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Company re-purchased an aggregate amount of NIS 1,600, NIS 7,600 and NIS 15,000 thousands nominal value, respectively, representing $ 400, $ 2,090 and $ 3,500 thousands of the outstanding debentures (series A) that were retired and removed from circulation on the TASE.

On December 5, 2009, the Company repaid the fourth and final payment of the principal of the debentures (series A).

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the net balance of the convertible debt was $ 0 and $ 5,380, respectively. Amortization of the deemed discount and the changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives charged to expenses were $ 459 and $ 308 thousands for 2009 and 2008, respectively. The debt issuance expenses, which were classified as other assets, and the deemed discount, are amortized over the term of the debentures (series A), using the effective interest rate method.

Note 12 - Employee Option Plans:

In March 2008, Formula's shareholders approved the adoption of Formula’s 2008 Employee and Office Holders Share Option Plan, referred to as "the plan". Pursuant to the plan, the company may grant from time to time to the company and its subsidiaries’ employees and officers holders (which are not Formula’s controlling shareholders) options to purchase up to 400,000 ordinary shares of Formula. The plan is administered by the Company's board of directors or by an option committee to be appointed by the board. The plan provides that options may be granted, from time to time, to such grantees to be determined by the board or the option committee, at an exercise price and under such terms to be determined at their sole and absolute discretion. Options may be granted under the plan through January 2018.

In January 2009, Formula granted to the CEO, in connection with his new service agreement, options to purchase 396,000 ordinary shares. These options vest over a three-year period, commencing on December 17, 2008, on a quarterly basis. The exercise price of the options is NIS 0.01 per share. The options shall expire six years of the date of grant. These options are amortized in accordance to the group's options amortization methodology. In April 2010 the CEO exercised all the options to shares.

The fair value of the options shares are the fair value of the shares at the grant date, $926 thousands ($2.34 per share).

B.	The Company's subsidiaries granted options to their employees to purchase shares in the respective companies.

The options were mainly granted during the years 1999-2009. In general, the options expire 7-10 years after grant. Most of the options were granted as part of plans that were adopted in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, which stipulate, inter alia, that the subsidiaries will be able to claim the benefit that was charged to the employees as an expense for tax purposes, if and when the employees become liable for tax on the benefit mentioned above.

As of December 31, 2009, there was a $477 thousands of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options granted under the Plan and the Special Plan, which is expected to be recognized over a period of up to four years.

In April 2009, Sapiens's Board of Directors approved a re-pricing of some of Sapiens's stock options held by Sapiens's management. Since there was no incremental value as a result of the modification, no additional expense was recorded in respect of the re-pricing of the respective options.

Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies:

A.	Commitments:

Some of the Company’s subsidiaries have commitments to the Chief Scientist and to the Marketing Promotion Fund, to pay royalties at a rate of 3%-3.5% of the proceeds from the sale of software products which were developed with the assistance of the Chief Scientist and marketed with the assistance of the Marketing Promotion Fund. The amount of royalties is limited to 100%-150% of the amount received. The subsidiaries are only obliged to repay the grants received from the Office of the Chief Scientist if revenue is generated from the sale of the said software products.

The balance of the contingent liability in respect of the aforesaid amounted to approximately $6.7 million as of December 31, 2009.

Liens:

Formula has liens on its portion of shareholdings in its subsidiaries in favor of the Bank.

Some of the subsidiaries have liens on leased vehicles, leased equipment and other assets in favor of the leasing companies.

C.	Guarantees:

The plaintiffs are seeking damages in the amount of NIS 51,794 thousand (approximately $ 13,720). Based on Magic legal advisors opinion and management estimates that the likelihood that the claim will be accepted by the arbitrator is less than probable; therefore, no provision has been made for the lawsuit.

In addition material lawsuits have been placed against the Company subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. The Company followed ASC 450 "Contingencies" and recorded provision where it was appropriate.

Some operations of certain subsidiaries have been granted the status of an “Approved Enterprise” which was granted under the Law before April 1, 2005. According to the provisions of the Law, the subsidiaries have elected the “alternative benefits” program and as such are entitled to tax exemption of two to four years and to a reduced tax rate of 10%-25% depending on the level of foreign investment in the technologies. The benefits commence with the date on which taxable income is first earned. The period of tax benefits detailed above is subject to a limit of the earlier of 12 years from the commencement of production or 14 years from receiving the approval.

The entitlement to the above benefits is conditional upon the Company fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the above Law, regulations published thereafter and the certificates of approval for the specific investments in an “Approved Enterprise”. In the event of failure to comply with these conditions, the benefits may be canceled and the subsidiaries may be required to refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, including interest.

Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (hereafter - the "Law") (cont.):

The tax-exempt income attributable to an “Approved Enterprise” can be distributed to shareholders without subjecting the Company to taxes only upon the complete liquidation of the Company. If this net retained tax-exempt income is distributed the Company, would be taxed at the corporate tax rate applicable to such income as if the Company had not elected the alternative tax benefits (currently 25% of the gross dividend).

The Company does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, no deferred tax liabilities have been provided on income attributable to the Company’s “Approved Enterprises”.

Income from sources other than the “Approved Enterprise” during the period of benefits will be taxable at general corporate tax rates.

On April 1, 2005, an amendment to the Investment Law came into effect ("the Amendment") and has significantly changed the provisions of the Investment Law. The Amendment limits the scope of enterprises which may be beneficial by the Investment Center by setting criteria for the approval of a facility as an Approved Enterprise, such as provisions generally requiring that at least 25% of the beneficial Enterprise's income will be derived from export. Additionally, the Amendment enacted major changes in the manner in which tax benefits are awarded under the Investment Law so that companies no longer require Investment Center approval in order to qualify for tax benefits

Tax benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969:

Some subsidiaries currently qualify as an “Industrial Company” as defined by this law, and as such are entitled to certain tax benefits including, inter alia accelerated, depreciation as stipulated by regulations published under the Inflationary Adjustments Law and the right to deduct, for tax purposes, over a period of 3 years.

Tax Rates Applicable to Income in Israel:

Until 2008, results for Israeli tax purposes were measured on a real basis as adjusted for the increase in CPI. In February 2008, the "Knesset" (Israeli parliament) passed an amendment to the Income Tax (Inflationary Adjustments) Law, 1985, which limits the scope of the law starting 2008 and thereafter. Starting 2008, the results for tax purposes have been measured in nominal values, excluding certain adjustments for changes in the CPI carried out in the period up to December 31, 2007. The amended law includes, inter alia, the elimination of the inflationary additions and deductions.

A.	Tax Laws in Israel (Cont.):

Tax Rates Applicable to Income in Israel (cont.):

The general corporate tax rate in Israel in 2009 was 26%. The corporate tax rate is to be reduced in 2010 and to 25%. On July 23, 2009, the Israel Economic Efficiency Law (Legislation Amendments for Applying the Economic Plan for 2009 and 2010), 2009 (hereinafter – the 2009 Amendment), became effective, stipulating, among other things, an additional gradual decrease in tax rates in 2011 and thereafter, as follows: 2011-24%, 2012-23%, 2013-22%, 2014-21%, 2015-20% and 2016 and thereafter-18%.

B.	Subsidiaries outside Israel:

Subsidiaries that are not Israeli residents are taxed in the countries in which they resident, according to the tax laws in those countries.

C.	Cumulative Tax Losses:

The Company and its subsidiaries have cumulative losses for tax purposes as of December 31, 2009 totaling approximately $158.9 million, of which $139.2 million is in respect of companies in Israel (December 31, 2008 - $173.7 million), and approximately $19.7 million in respect of companies abroad (December 31, 2008 - $36.5 million). The likelihood of the utilization of the majority of these losses in the future is not more likely than not inter alia, due to the fact that the Company's capital losses can be deductible only against capital gains which are not predictable by their nature.

Therefore, the Company recorded a valuation allowance with respect to the attributable to these losses carried forward.

D.	Income Tax Assessments:

In 2007, the Company paid approximately $250 thousands, as taxes for the years 2001-2004, after reaching an agreement with the Israeli tax authorities for those years. In addition the Company has closed years to tax as result of tax assessment until 2007

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

MAGIC SOFTWARE ENTERPRISES LTD.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Magic Software Enterprises Ltd.

These financial statements are the responsibility of Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries, which statements reflect total assets of 15% and 14% as of December 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively, and total revenues of 36%, 39% and 36% for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009, respectively of the related consolidated totals. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those subsidiaries, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and 2009, and the related consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Auditor’s report

Report on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets as at December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009 of Magic Benelux B.V., Houten.

Management’s responsibility

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements and for the preparation of the management board report, both in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Dutch law. This law requires that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Magic Benelux B.V.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of Magic Benelux B.V. as at December 31, 2009 and 2008, and of its related statements of operations for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
