Item 12.    Results of Operations and Financial Condition

      The information in this Form 8-K and the Exhibits attached hereto shall
not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by
reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in
such a filing.

      On August 3, 2004, Quality Systems, Inc. (referred herein to as the
"Company," "Registrant" or "QSI") held a conference call concerning its
financial performance for the quarter and year ended June 30, 2004. A transcript
of the conference call is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1. The
conference call contains forward-looking statements regarding QSI and includes
cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those anticipated.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      The Company from time to time discloses its Days Sales Outstanding ("DSO")
which is a Non-GAAP financial measure. During the quarter ended June 30, 2004,
DSO was 104 days. The Company calculates DSO as follows: Net revenue for the
quarter is annualized (multiplied by four) and then divided by 365 days to yield
an average daily sales amount. The balance of accounts receivable net of any
reserves for bad debts is then divided by that average daily sales amount
resulting in a DSO figure. For the quarter ended June 30, 2004, the calculation
was as follows:

Quarterly Revenue:                  $20,130,000

Annualized (X 4):                   $80,520,000

Divided by 365:                     $220,602 = Average daily revenue

Net Accounts Receivable:            $23,013,000

Divided by average daily revenue:   $220,602

Equals:                              104 days (rounded)


                                       2


      The Company believes the use of DSO provides useful information to
investors regarding the Company's ability to convert its receivables into cash.
DSO thus provides more detailed information regarding the Company's financial
results than the financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP.

      As used herein, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.
