  Post-Acquisition Financial Results
                                  
  
  On August 29, 1996, FISI*Madison Financial Corporation, a wholly-
  owned  subsidiary  of  CUC International  Inc.  (the  "Company"),
  acquired  substantially  all of the  assets  and  liabilities  of
  Kevlin  Services, Incorporated ("Kevlin"), pursuant to the  terms
  of  an  Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated the same date.
  Kevlin,  which  is  based in Dallas, Texas, provides  membership-
  based   consumer   services,  including  accidental   death   and
  dismemberment  insurance,  to and for the  benefit  of  financial
  institutions.   This  acquisition is being  accounted  for  as  a
  pooling-of-interests.
  
  On   September  23,  1996,  the  Company  acquired  all  of   the
  outstanding capital stock of Dine-A-Mate, Inc. ("Dine-A-Mate"), a
  New York corporation which publishes discount coupon books.  This
  acquisition is being accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.
  
  The  following is a summary of certain interim financial  results
  of  the Company, on a consolidated basis, reflecting the combined
  operations of the Company, Kevlin and Dine-A-Mate.
  
  For  the one-month period ended October 25, 1996, the Company had
  consolidated  revenues  and  net  income  of  approximately  $197
  million  and  $23.7 million ($.06 per share), respectively.   The
  weighted  average number of shares of the Company's common  stock
  outstanding for this period was approximately 406 million shares,
  adjusted to give effect to the Company's 3-for-2 stock split,  in
  the form of a stock dividend, effected on October 21, 1996.
