1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Acxiom Corporation ("Registrant", "Acxiom" or "the Company"),
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC" or "the Commission").  In the
opinion of the Registrant's management all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods included
have been made and the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature.  Certain note information has been omitted because it has not changed significantly from that reflected in
notes 1 through 21 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements filed as part of Item 8 of the Registrant's annual report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 ("2005 Annual Report"), as filed with the Commission on June 13, 2005.  This
report and the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the 2005 Annual Report.
The financial information contained in this report is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other period
or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2006.

Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Certain of the
accounting policies used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are complex and require management
to make judgments and/or significant estimates regarding amounts reported or disclosed in these financial statements.  Additionally,
the application of certain of these accounting policies is governed by complex accounting principles and interpretations thereof.  A
discussion of the Company's significant accounting principles and the application thereof is included in note 1 and in Item 7,
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, to the Company's 2005 Annual Report.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.  Such reclassifications had no effect
on the prior year's net earnings as previously reported.

Stock-Based Compensation -

The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently published Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004),
Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123R").  SFAS 123R will require that compensation cost related to stock options be recognized in the
financial statements.  Currently, the Company accounts for its stock options under the provisions of APB 25, which does not
necessarily require the recognition of stock options as a  compensation cost in the statement of earnings.  Accordingly, no
compensation cost has historically been recognized by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings
for any of the fixed stock options granted.  As a result of the acquisition of Digital the Company issued options to Digital
associates that are in-the-money, resulting in compensation cost under APB 25.  Had compensation cost for all options granted been
determined on the basis of the fair value of the awards at the date of grant, consistent with the methodology prescribed by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, as amended, the Company's net earnings would have been reduced to the
following unaudited pro forma amounts for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The per-share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $3.45 on the date
of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: dividend yield of 1.1%;
risk-free interest rate of 3.8%; expected option life of 3 years and expected volatility of 23%.

The decrease in pro forma compensation expense noted above under SFAS No. 123 results from acceleration of vesting in the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2005 of all of the Company's then outstanding unvested stock options except for those granted to the outside
directors of the Company and except for those held by terminated associates which will be forfeited or cancelled with the passage of
time.  The decision to accelerate the vesting of these options was made primarily to avoid recognizing compensation expense in future
financial statements upon the effectiveness of SFAS 123R which has now been postponed until April 1, 2006.  By accelerating the
vesting of these options, the Company recognized approximately $3.6

million of compensation expense in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005.  The Company believes that it will thereafter not be required
to recognize any significant compensation expense in future periods associated with the affected options.  The stock-based employee
compensation expense shown in the table above for the current period relates to options issued during the quarter, options held by
directors, and options issued to Digital employees.

Stockholders' Equity -

The Company paid dividends on its common stock in the amount of $0.05 and $0.04 per share in the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and
June 30, 2004, respectively.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, 8.3 million shares were repurchased pursuant to the Company's common stock repurchase program
for an aggregate purchase price of $156.6 million.  The Company also paid an additional $3.7 million in cash for trades entered into
in the prior period which settled in the current quarter.  At June 30, 2005, the maximum dollar value of shares that may yet be
purchased under the program is $234.8 million.


3.       ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS:

In May 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Digital Impact, Inc.  ("Digital").  Digital is a provider of integrated
digital marketing solutions and is based in San Mateo, California.  Management believes Digital provides the Company with new digital
services capabilities that are complementary to the Company's existing service offerings.  The Company paid approximately $106.6
million in cash for Digital, net of cash acquired, and Digital's results of operations are included in the Company's consolidated
results beginning May 1, 2005.  Digital's total annual revenues are approximately $45 million.  The pro forma effect of this
acquisition is not material to the Company's consolidated results for any of the periods presented.

The following table shows the allocation of the Digital purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed (dollars in
thousands):

The purchase price allocation for the Digital acquisition is subject to adjustment as the Company makes the final determination of
the fair values assigned to assets and liabilities acquired.

As a result of both the Claritas Europe and Consodata acquisitions in fiscal 2004 and 2005, management formulated plans to
consolidate certain facilities, eliminate duplicative operations, and terminate or relocate certain associates.  The Company recorded
aggregate accruals in other accrued liabilities for the estimated costs of the integration process, including lease termination costs
and lease fair value adjustments, costs of terminating or relocating associates, and for other contract termination costs.  As a
result of the Digital acquisition, management is also formulating plans for the integration process and has accrued the estimated
costs of associate terminations and lease termination costs and lease fair value adjustments.

                                                                10

5.       GOODWILL:

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the fair values of net assets acquired in business combinations.  Goodwill
is reviewed at least annually for impairment under a two-part test.  Impairment exists to the extent that the reporting unit's
recorded goodwill exceeds the residual fair value assigned to such goodwill.  Any impairment that results from the completion of the
two-part test is recorded as a charge to operations during the period in which the impairment test is completed.  Completion of the
Company's most recent annual impairment test during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 indicated that no potential impairment of its
goodwill balances exists.

The carrying amount of goodwill, by business segment, for the three months ended June 30, 2005 is presented in the following table.
As discussed in note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the previously reported IT Management segment has been
consolidated with the US Services and Data segment as a result of a change in the Company's business segments in the quarter ended
June 30, 2005.

The Company maintains a revolving credit facility that provides for aggregate borrowings and letters of credit of up to $400 million
through March 31, 2010.  Borrowings under the revolving credit facility of $270.7 million at June 30, 2005 and $10.9 million at March
31, 2005 bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.0% or at an alternative base rate or at the federal funds rate plus 2.0%, depending upon the
type of borrowing, and are secured by accounts receivable.  The weighted average interest rate on the revolving credit facility were
4.25% at June 30, 2005 and 4.87% at March 31, 2005.  Outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005 were $3.9 and
$3.7 million, respectively.

Under the terms of certain of the above borrowings, the Company is required to maintain certain tangible net worth levels,
debt-to-cash flow and debt service coverage ratios, among other restrictions.  At June 30, 2005, the Company was in compliance with
these covenants and restrictions.  Accordingly, the Company has classified all portions of its debt obligations due after June 30,

performance and to allocate resources.  In the quarter ended June 30, 2005 to better reflect the way management operates and reviews
the business, the Company changed its business segments to consist of US Services and Data and International Services and Data.  The
previously reported IT Management segment has been consolidated with the US Services and Data segment.  Both US and International
segments include consulting, database and data warehousing, list processing services, the Company's data content and software
products.  US Services and Data now also includes information technology outsourcing and facilities management for data center
management, network management, client/server management and other complementary IT services.  The Company evaluates performance of
the segments based on segment operating income, which excludes certain gains, losses and nonrecurring items.

9.       COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

On June 3, 2005, ValueAct Capital sent Charles Morgan, in his capacity as CEO and chairman of the board, a letter which indicated
ValueAct was prepared to offer $23 per share for the 89% of outstanding shares of Acxiom stock that ValueAct did not already own.

On June 23, 2005, a class action lawsuit was filed against the board of directors alleging breach of fiduciary duty.  Among other
things, the putative class action plaintiff alleges that the board members are not independent from Charles Morgan.  Based on this
purported lack of independence, the lawsuit alleges that the board did not use good faith in considering the June 3, 2005 letter from
ValueAct.

The lawsuit, Indiana State District Council of Laborers and HOD Carriers Pension Fund v. Morgan, et al., CV05-8498, is pending in
Pulaski County, Arkansas Circuit Court.  In addition to seeking class action status, the plaintiffs are also seeking an order
requiring the defendants to properly consider the ValueAct transaction or any other transaction in the best interests of Acxiom
shareholders and to rescind any measures that would prevent ValueAct from negotiating for the purchase of the Company.  The suit is
in its early stages and the defendants have not yet responded to the complaint.  However, they intend to vigorously contest the
suit.  The Company does not believe the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit will have a material impact on the Company or its operations
or financial position.

On July 12, 2005, ValueAct sent a letter to the Acxiom board of directors outlining a proposal to negotiate an acquisition of the
Company.  Based on the board's evaluation of the proposal, and with assistance from its legal and financial advisors, the board
unanimously determined that pursuing ValueAct's proposal was not in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders.

The Company leases data processing equipment, software, office furniture and equipment, land and office space under noncancellable
operating leases.  Additionally, the Company has entered into synthetic operating leases for computer equipment, furniture and
aircraft ("Leased Assets").  These synthetic operating lease facilities are accounted for as operating leases under generally
accepted accounting principles and are treated as capital leases for income tax reporting purposes.  Initial lease terms under the
synthetic computer equipment and furniture facility range from two to six years, with the Company having the option at expiration of
the initial lease to return the equipment, purchase the equipment at a fixed price, or extend the term of the lease.  The lease term
of one aircraft expires in January 2011, with the Company having the option to purchase the aircraft, renew the lease for an
additional twelve months, or return the aircraft to the lessor.  In December 2003 the Company entered into a lease for an additional
aircraft which would have expired in November 2013.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company terminated the lease for the
second aircraft and the lessor sold the aircraft.  Under the terms of the lease the Company was entitled to the proceeds of the
airplane sale, net of the payoff value of the lease.  As a result of this lease termination the Company received net proceeds of $1.6
million which is included in gains, losses and nonrecurring items.

                                                                14

9.       COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued):


Since the inception of the facility, the total amount drawn under these synthetic operating lease facilities was $214.5 million and
the Company has a future commitment for lease payments of $8.4 million over the next ten years.  In the event the Company elects to
return the Leased Assets, the Company has guaranteed a portion of the residual value to the lessors.  Assuming the Company elects to
return the Leased Assets to the lessors at its earliest opportunity under the synthetic lease arrangements and assuming the Leased
Assets have no significant residual value to the lessors, the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be
required to make under these residual value guarantees was $3.8 million at June 30, 2005.

The Company also has an aircraft leased from a business controlled by an officer and director of the Company.  Should the Company
elect early termination rights under the lease or not extend the lease beyond the initial term and the lessor sells the aircraft, the
Company has guaranteed a residual value of 70% of the then outstanding indebtedness of the lessor, or $3.3 million at June 30, 2005.

In connection with certain of the Company's facilities, the Company has entered into 50/50 joint ventures with local real estate
developers.  In each case, the Company is guaranteeing portions of the loans for the buildings.  In addition, in connection with the
disposal of certain assets, the Company has guaranteed loans for the buyers of the assets.  These guarantees were made by the Company
primarily to facilitate favorable financing terms for those third parties.  Should the third parties default on this indebtedness,
the Company would be required to perform under its guarantee.  Substantially all of the third-party indebtedness is collateralized by
various pieces of real property.  At June 30, 2005 the Company's maximum potential future payments under all of these guarantees of
third-party indebtedness were $5.4 million.

The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of management, the
ultimate disposition of all of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

                                                                15

Revenues
For the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company's revenue was $310.3 million, compared to revenue of $289.0 million in fiscal 2004,
reflecting an increase of $21.3 million.  Services revenue increased $30.7 million, or 14.7%, while data revenue decreased $9.4
million, or 11.6%.  The increase in services revenue is primarily attributable to increases in revenue of $3.9 million from clients
in the retail, media and publishing, telecommunications and background screening industries, and an increase of $23.5 million in IT
Management revenue.  Revenue from Digital Impact, Inc., which was acquired during the quarter, was $7.8 million.  All other services
revenue combined resulted in a net $4.5 million decrease.  The decrease in data revenue is primarily attributable to a decrease in
International data revenue of $7.5 million, and to a decrease in real estate property data revenue of $2.0 million.  Additionally,
other data that Acxiom re-sells was down slightly, while revenue from Acxiom's InfoBase suite of products was up slightly.

In the quarter ended June 30, 2005 the Company changed its business segments to consist of US Services and Data and International
Services and Data.  Both segments include consulting, database and data warehousing, list processing services, the Company's data
content and software products.  The US Services and Data segment also includes information technology outsourcing and facilities
management for data center management, network management, client/server management and other complementary IT services.  The new
segments reflect how the Company is organized internally for management purposes.

US Services and Data segment revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 increased $29.8 million over fiscal 2005 and reflects
increases of $5.1 million from clients in the retail, media and publishing, telecommunications and background screening industries,

was $7.8 million.  All other revenue combined resulted in a net $6.6 million decrease.

International Services and Data segment revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 decreased $8.6 million from fiscal 2005.  The
decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in data sales to existing clients.

The cost of services for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 of $196.0 million increased $32.4 million or 19.8% over the quarter ended
June 30, 2004.  Cost of services as a percent of services revenue was 82.2% in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to 78.7% in
the quarter ended June 30, 2004.  Cost of services was up related to the increase in IT Management revenue and to other new contracts
in the US Services and Data Segment.  Additionally, cost of services was up by $5.0 million due to the acquisition of Digital Impact,
and up by $4.2 million as a result of a major client installation that has required additional resources.

Cost of data includes acquired data, data royalties, compilation costs and the costs of building the Company's various data
products.  The cost of data for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 of $48.9 million decreased $2.9 million or 5.7% from the quarter ended
June 30, 2004.  The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in International data expense which is down due to a reduction
in variable and royalty expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 of $52.0 million increased $3.6 million or 7.3% from
the quarter ended June 30, 2004.  Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of total revenue was 16.8% in both
quarters ending June 30, 2005 and 2004.  The increase for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was primarily attributable to the
acquisition of Digital Impact, which accounted for $3.0 million of the increase.

Gross profit margins for services were 17.8% in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 which compares with 21.3% in the quarter ended June
30, 2004.  The decrease in gross profit margin is primarily due to increased expenses of $4.2 million related to a major client
installation as noted above, and lower margins on new services arrangements recorded during the quarter.

The gross profit margins for data were 31.9% in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 which compares to 36.1% for the quarter ended June
30, 2004.  Gross profit margins for 2005 decreased due to the decreases in International data revenue and real estate property data
revenue, which were not fully offset by a decrease in the corresponding expenses.

The consolidated gross profit margins for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were 21.1% which compares to 25.5% for the first quarter
ended June 30, 2004.

Operating Margins
Operating margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was 4.8% compared to 8.8% in the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Other Income (Expense), Income Taxes and Other Items
Interest expense of $5.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 increased 1.8% over the quarter ended June 30, 2004.  The
Company's weighted-average interest rate on long-term debt was 4.9% at June 30, 2005 and 4.6% at June 30, 2004.

Other, net increased $0.5 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to
a $0.4 million gain on an equity distribution from a joint venture investment.  Other, net in both periods includes $0.4 million of
interest income on notes receivable.

The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was 38%.  Management expects the effective tax rate for the year ended
March 31, 2006 to also be approximately 38%.

The Company is regularly audited by federal and state tax authorities, which, from time to time, results in proposed assessments
and/or adjustments to certain of the Company's tax positions.  As a result of certain tax deductions and exclusions taken by the
Company in recent years for which no specific or clear guidance is included in the Internal Revenue Code and the possibility that the
Company's position with respect to these deductions and/or exclusions could be challenged and disallowed by tax authorities, the
Company has established a tax liability to cover its potential exposure.

2005 and the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities was a negative $4.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005,
which was an improvement of $26.3 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to changes in accounts receivable.

Investing activities used $130.8 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $20.8 million in the same quarter in the
prior year.  Investing activities in the current quarter included capitalized software development costs of $5.7 million as compared
to $4.1 million in the prior period.  Capital expenditures were $2.9 million in the current quarter compared to $1.8 million in the
prior period.  Deferral of costs and data acquisition costs were $16.2 million in the current quarter compared to $9.6 million in the
prior year.  Deferral of costs, which include both salaries and benefits and other direct and incremental third party costs incurred
in connection with setup activities on client contracts, as well as deferred costs related to data, increased $6.6 million primarily
due to increases in deferred contract costs.

Investing activities also includes net cash paid for acquisitions of $106.7 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005.  Of this
amount, $106.6 million relates to the acquisition of Digital Impact, Inc. ("Digital") (see note 3 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements) and the rest reflects fees paid on investments made in prior periods.  Cash paid in acquisitions for the
quarter ended June 30, 2004 reflects the April 2004 acquisition of the Consodata German operations.

With respect to certain of its investments in joint ventures and other companies, the Company has provided cash advances to fund
losses and cash flow deficits.  Although the Company has no commitment to continue to do so, it expects to continue funding such
losses and deficits until such time as these investments become profitable.  The Company may, at its discretion, discontinue
providing financing to these investments during future periods.  In the event that it ceases to provide funding and these investments
have not achieved profitable operations, the Company may be required to record an impairment charge up to the amount of the carrying
value of these investments ($7.2 million at June 30, 2005).

The Company generated free cash flows of $36.7 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and $19.2 million in the quarter ended June
30, 2004, as shown below (in thousands):

Free cash flow is not a generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP") financial measure.  A "non-GAAP financial measure" is
defined as a numerical measure of the Company's financial performance, financial position or cash flow that excludes (or includes)
amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP
in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.  The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by operating
activities less cash used by investing activities excluding the impact of investments in joint ventures and other business alliances
and cash paid and/or received in acquisitions and dispositions.  Free cash flow, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures reported by other companies.  Management of the Company has included free cash flow in this filing because
although free cash flow does not represent the amount of money available for the Company's discretionary spending since certain
obligations of the Company must be funded out of free cash flow, particularly payments on capital leases and other scheduled debt
payments, management believes that it provides investors with a useful alternative measure of liquidity by allowing an assessment of
the amount of cash available for general corporate and strategic purposes, including debt payments, after funding operating
activities and capital expenditures, capitalized software expenses and deferred costs and data acquisition.  The above table
reconciles free cash flow to cash provided by operating activities, the nearest comparable GAAP measure.

The Company has federal, state and foreign loss carryforwards and credits from past operations.  Additional loss carryforwards and
credits are available to the Company as the result of acquisitions, although their utilization is limited annually under US tax law.
As a result of the carryforwards, the Company did not pay any significant federal, state or foreign income taxes in either of the
periods reported.  The Company expects that the federal net operating loss carryforwards will be fully utilized and the Company will
begin paying federal income taxes during fiscal 2006.

On November 14, 2002, the Company announced a common stock repurchase program.  From that date until June 30, 2005, the Company has
repurchased 17.4 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $315.2 million under this repurchase program.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, 8.3 million shares were repurchased for an aggregate purchase price of $156.6 million.  The
Company also paid an additional $3.7 million in cash for trades entered into in the prior period which settled in the current quarter.

Financing activities in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 generated $76.3 million as compared to $16.7 million used in the quarter
ended June 30, 2004.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, proceeds from the sale of common stock through stock options and the
employee stock purchase plan of $13.5 million and from debt financings of $281.7 million were offset by $54.1 million in repayments
of debt, $4.4 million in cash dividends and $160.4 million in stock repurchases as discussed above.

The Company also incurred long-term obligations through non-cash investing and financing activities during the quarter ended June 30,
2005 of $26.5 million for the acquisition of property and equipment under capital leases, $3.7 million for construction of assets and
$2.2 million for software licenses acquired under software obligations.

The Company intends to use its future free cash flow to repay debt, to buy back shares of its common stock (when accretive to
earnings per share), for possible future acquisitions, for payments of dividends which may declared by the board at its discretion,
and for other general business purposes.

Credit and Debt Facilities
The Company had available credit lines of $400 million of which $270.7 million was outstanding at June 30, 2005, compared to $10.9
million outstanding at March 31, 2005.  The Company's debt-to-capital ratio, as calculated below, was 38% at June 30, 2005 compared
to 15% at March 31, 2005 (dollars in thousands).

The foregoing calculation of the debt-to-capital ratio excludes current maturities of long-term obligations in the amounts of $76.7
million and $83.0 million at June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, respectively.  The increase in the ratio is largely due to the
Company's use of debt in the current quarter to acquire treasury stock and to finance the acquisition of Digital.

                                                                21


Off-Balance Sheet Items and Commitments
The Company has entered into synthetic operating lease facilities for computer equipment, furniture and aircraft ("Leased Assets").
These synthetic operating lease facilities are accounted for as operating leases under GAAP and are treated as capital leases for
income tax reporting purposes.  Lease terms under the computer equipment and furniture facility range from two to six years, with the
Company having the option at expiration of the initial term to return, or purchase at a fixed price, or extend or renew the term of
the leased equipment.  The synthetic lease term for one aircraft expires in January 2011, with the Company having the option at
expiration to either purchase the aircraft at a fixed price, enter into a lease for an additional twelve-month period (with a nominal
purchase price paid at the expiration of the renewal period), or return the aircraft in the condition and manner required by the
lease.  In the event the Company elects to return the Leased Assets, the Company has guaranteed a portion of the residual value to
the lessors.  Assuming the Company elects to return the Leased Assets to the lessors at its earliest opportunity under the synthetic
lease arrangements and assuming the Leased Assets have no significant residual value to the lessors, the maximum potential amount of
future payments the Company could be required to make under these residual value guarantees was $3.8 million at June 30, 2005.  Since
the inception of the facility, the total amount drawn under these synthetic operating lease facilities was $214.5 million, and as of
June 30, 2005 the Company has a future commitment for lease payments of $8.4 million over the next ten years.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company terminated the lease for a second aircraft which was then sold by the lessor.
Under the terms of the lease, the Company was entitled to the proceeds of the airplane sale, net of the payoff value of the lease.
As a result of this lease termination, the Company received net proceeds of $1.6 million which is included in gains, losses and
non-recurring items.

The Company has begun construction on an additional 30,000 square foot data center in Little Rock, Arkansas and it is expected to be
completed in fiscal 2006.  Total construction cost of this facility is expected to be approximately $18 million.  In connection with
certain of the Company's other buildings and facilities, the Company has entered into 50/50 joint ventures with local real estate
developers.  In each case, the Company is guaranteeing portions of the loans for the buildings.  In addition, in connection with the
disposal of certain assets, the Company has guaranteed loans for the buyers of the assets.  Substantially all of the third party
indebtedness for which the Company has provided guarantees is collateralized by various pieces of real property.  The aggregate
amount of the guarantees at March 31, 2005 was $5.4 million.

Outstanding letters of credit, which reduce the borrowing capacity under the Company's revolving credit facility, were $3.9 million
at June 30, 2005 and $3.7 million at March 31, 2005.

                                                                22

The related party aircraft lease relates to an aircraft leased from a business owned by an officer and director.  The Company has
also agreed to pay the difference, if any, between the sales price of the aircraft and 70% of the related loan balance (approximately
$3.3 million at June 30, 2005) should the Company elect to exercise its early termination rights or not extend the lease beyond its
initial term and the lessor sells the equipment as a result.

The purchase commitments on the synthetic equipment, furniture and aircraft leases assume the leases terminate and are not renewed,
and the Company elects to purchase the assets.  The other purchase commitments include contractual commitments for the purchase of
data and open purchase orders for equipment, paper, office supplies, construction of buildings and other items.  Other purchase
commitments in some cases will be satisfied by entering into future operating leases, capital leases, or other financing
arrangements, rather than payment of cash.

                                                                23

The following table shows contingencies or guarantees under which the Company could be required, in certain circumstances, to make
cash payments as of June 30, 2005 (dollars in thousands):

Residual value guarantee on the synthetic computer equipment and furniture lease                        $         1,180
Residual value guarantee on synthetic aircraft lease                                                              2,639
Residual value guarantee on related party aircraft lease                                                          3,325

The total of loans "on certain partnerships and other loans," of which the Company guarantees the portion noted in the above table,
are $13.2 million.

While the Company does not have any other material contractual commitments for capital expenditures, certain levels of investments in
facilities and computer equipment continue to be necessary to support the growth of the business.  It is the Company's current
intention generally to lease any new required equipment to better match cash outflows with customer inflows.  In some cases, the
Company also sells software and hardware to clients.  In addition, new outsourcing or facilities management contracts frequently
require substantial up-front capital expenditures to acquire or replace existing assets.  Management believes that the Company's
existing available debt and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital and capital
expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.  The Company also evaluates acquisitions from time to time, which may require
up-front payments of cash.  Depending on the size of the acquisition it may be necessary to raise additional capital.  If additional
capital becomes necessary as a result of any material variance of operating results from projections or from potential future
acquisitions, the Company would first use available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit agreement, followed by the issuance
of debt or equity securities.  However, no assurance can be given that the Company would be able to obtain funding through the
issuance of debt or equity securities at terms favorable to the Company, or that such funding would be available.

For a description of certain risks that could have an impact on results of operations or financial condition, including liquidity and
capital resources, see the "Risk Factors" contained in Part I, Item 1. Business, of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

Acquisitions and Divestitures
In May 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Digital Impact, Inc. ("Digital").  Digital is a provider of integrated digital
marketing solutions and is based in San Mateo, California.  Management believes Digital provides the Company with new digital
services capabilities that are complementary to the company's existing service offerings.  The Company paid approximately $106.6
million in cash for Digital, net of cash acquired, and Digital's results of operations are included in the Company's consolidated
results beginning May 1, 2005.  Digital's total annual revenues are approximately $45 million.

See note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information about the Company's acquisitions.

Related Parties

In accordance with a data center management agreement dated July 27, 1992 between Acxiom and TransUnion, Acxiom (through its
subsidiary, Acxiom CDC, Inc.) acquired all of TransUnion's interest in its Chicago data center and agreed to provide TransUnion with
various data center management services.  In a 1992 letter agreement, Acxiom agreed to use its best efforts to cause one person
designated by TransUnion to be elected to Acxiom's board of directors.  TransUnion designated its CEO and President, Harry C.
Gambill, who was appointed to fill a vacancy on the board in November 1992 and was elected at the 1993 annual meeting of stockholders
to serve a three-year term.  He was elected to serve additional three-year terms at the 1996, 1999 and 2002 annual stockholders
meetings.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2004, the agreement was extended to run through December 31, 2010.  In addition to
this agreement, the Company has other contracts with TransUnion related to data, software and other services.  Acxiom recorded
revenue from TransUnion of $27.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and $20.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

See note 14 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for additional information
on certain relationships and related transactions.

                                                                24


Non-U.S. Operations

The Company has a presence in the United Kingdom, France, The Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Australia and China.
Most of the Company's exposure to exchange rate fluctuation is due to translation gains and losses as there are no material
transactions that cause exchange rate impact.  In general, each of the foreign locations is expected to fund its own operations and
cash flows, although funds may be loaned or invested from the U.S. to the foreign subsidiaries subject to limitations in the
Company's revolving credit facility.  These advances are considered to be long-term investments, and any gain or loss resulting from
changes in exchange rates as well as gains or losses resulting from translating the foreign financial statements into U.S. dollars
are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).  Exchange rate movements of foreign currencies may have an impact on
the Company's future costs or on future cash flows from foreign investments.  The Company has not entered into any foreign currency
forward exchange contracts or other derivative instruments to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.  These accounting principles require management to make certain judgments and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  The consolidated financial statements in the
Company's 2005 annual report include a summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of Acxiom's consolidated
financial statements.  In addition, the Management's Discussion and Analysis filed as part of the 2005 annual report contains a
discussion of the policies which management has identified as the most critical because they require management's use of complex
and/or significant judgments.  The following paragraphs are intended to update that discussion only for the critical accounting
policies or estimates which have materially changed since the date of the last annual report.

     Valuation of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill - Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment
     whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability
     of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted cash flows
     expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.  In cases where cash flows cannot be associated with
     individual assets, assets are grouped together in order to associate cash flows with the asset group.  If such assets or asset
     groups are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of
     the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or
     fair value less costs to sell.  No assurance can be given by management of the Company that future impairment charges to its
     long-lived assets will not be required as a result of changes in events and/or circumstances.

     Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the fair values of net assets acquired in business combinations treated
     as purchase transactions.  Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," goodwill is not
     amortized, but is reviewed annually for impairment under a two-part test.  In the event that part one of the impairment test
     indicates potential impairment of goodwill, performance of part two of the impairment test is required.  Any impairment that
     results from the completion of the two-part test is recorded as a charge to operations during the period in which the impairment
     test is completed.  The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment evaluation as of the beginning of its fiscal year.  The
     Company has completed part one of an annual, two-part impairment analysis of its goodwill and has determined that no impairment
     of its goodwill existed as of April 1, 2005.  Accordingly, step two of the goodwill impairment test was not required for fiscal
     2006.  Changes in circumstances may require the Company to perform impairment testing on a more frequent basis.  No assurance can
     be given by the Company that additional impairment tests will not require an impairment charge during future periods should
     circumstances indicate that the Company's goodwill balances are impaired.

     In completing step one of the test and making the assessment that no potential impairment of the Company's goodwill existed,
     management has made a number of estimates and assumptions.  In particular, the growth in operating income and discount rates used
     by management in determining the fair value of each of the Company's reporting units through a discounted cash flow analysis
     significantly affect the outcome of the impairment test, as well as numerous other factors.  In performing step one of the
     impairment analysis, management has used growth rates ranging from minus 5% up to 50% for the International segment and 15
     percent up to 25 percent for the US segment and used a discount rate of 12 percent for all segments, representing an
     approximation of the Company's weighted-average cost of capital, which resulted in an excess of fair value over the net assets of
     each of the Company's reporting units.  Assuming the same growth rates, a discount rate of greater than 14 percent would be

                                                                25

     necessary to indicate potential impairment of the International segment and a discount rate of 30% would be necessary to indicate
     impairment of the US segment, resulting in the need to proceed to step two of the impairment test.  Alternatively, assuming the
     12 percent discount rate but assuming no growth for the US segment and only 9 percent growth for the International segment would
     also not indicate impairment.  Additionally, the Company has determined that its reporting units should be aggregated up to
     reportable segments for use in analyzing its goodwill and assessing any potential impairment thereof, on the basis of similar
     economic characteristics in accordance with the guidance in SFAS No. 131 and SFAS No. 142.  However, should a determination be
     made that such aggregation of some or all of the Company's reporting units is not appropriate, the results of step one of the
     goodwill impairment test might indicate that potential impairment does exist, requiring the Company to proceed to step two of the
     test and possibly recording an impairment of its goodwill.

     Stock-Based Compensation Accounting - The Company has elected to continue using the intrinsic-value method of accounting for
     stock-based compensation to associates.  Accordingly, the Company has not historically recognized compensation expense for the
     fair value of its stock-based awards to associates in its condensed consolidated financial statements.  The Company has included
     the pro forma disclosures in note 2 to its condensed consolidated financial statements as if the fair-value based method of
     accounting had been applied.  As a result of the acquisition of Digital the Company has issued options to Digital associates that
     are "in-the-money" resulting in the Company recording compensation cost under the intrinsic-value method.

Forward-looking Statements

This document and other written reports and oral statements made from time to time by the Company and its representatives contain
forward-looking statements.  These statements, which are not statements of historical fact, may contain estimates, assumptions,
projections and/or expectations regarding the Company's financial position, results of operations, market position, product
development, growth opportunities, economic conditions, and other similar forecasts and statements of expectation.  The Company
generally indicates these statements by words or phrases such as "anticipate," "estimate," "plan," "expect," "believe," "intend,"
"foresee," and similar words or phrases.  These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to
a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause the Company's actual results and experiences to differ materially from the
anticipated results and expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements.

The factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the
forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the following:

o        the possibility that we may incur expenses related to unsolicited proposals or others to acquire the Company;
o        the possibility that certain contracts may not be closed, or may not be closed within the anticipated time frames;
o        the possibility that certain contracts may not generate the anticipated revenue or profitability;
o        the possibility that negative changes in economic or other conditions might lead to a reduction in demand for our products
         and services;
o        the possibility of an economic slowdown or that economic conditions in general will not be as expected;
o        the possibility that significant customers may experience extreme, severe economic difficulty;
o        the possibility that the integration of acquired businesses may not be as successful as planned;
o        the possibility that the fair value of certain of our assets may not be equal to the carrying value of those assets now or
         in future time periods;
o        the possibility that sales cycles may lengthen;
o        the possibility that we may not be able to attract and retain qualified technical and leadership associates, or that we may
         lose key associates to other organizations;
o        the possibility that we won't be able to properly motivate our sales force or other associates;
o        the possibility that we won't be able to achieve cost reductions and avoid unanticipated costs;
o        the possibility that we won't be able to continue to receive credit upon satisfactory terms and conditions;
o        the possibility that competent, competitive products, technologies or services will be introduced into the marketplace by
         other companies;

                                                                26

o        the possibility that we may be subjected to pricing pressure due to market conditions and/or competitive products and
         services;
o        the possibility that there will be changes in consumer or business information industries and markets;
o        the possibility that changes in accounting pronouncements may occur and may impact these projections;
o        the possibility that we won't be able to protect proprietary information and technology or to obtain necessary licenses on
         commercially reasonable terms;
o        the possibility that we may encounter difficulties when entering new markets or industries;
o        the possibility that there will be changes in the legislative, accounting, regulatory and consumer environments affecting
         our business, including but not limited to litigation, legislation, regulations and customs relating to our
         ability to collect, manage, aggregate and use data;
o        the possibility that data suppliers might withdraw data from us, leading to our inability to provide certain products and
         services;
o        the possibility that we may enter into short-term contracts which would affect the predictability of our revenues;
o        the possibility that the amount of ad hoc, volume-based and project work will not be as expected;
o        the possibility that we may experience a loss of data center capacity or interruption of telecommunication links or power
         sources;
o        the possibility that we may experience failures or breaches of our network and data security systems, leading to potential
         adverse publicity, negative customer reaction, or liability to third parties;
o        the possibility that postal rates may increase, thereby leading to reduced volumes of business;
o        the possibility that our clients may cancel or modify their agreements with us;
o        the possibility that we will not successfully complete customer contract requirements on time or meet the service levels
         specified in the contracts, which may result in contract penalties or lost revenue;
o        the possibility that we experience processing errors which result in credits to customers,
         re-performance of services or payment of damages to customers;
o        the possibility that the services of the United States Postal Service, their global counterparts and other delivery systems
         may be disrupted;
o        and the possibility that we may be affected by other competitive factors.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements.  The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements based
on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information or otherwise.

                                                                27


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Acxiom's earnings are affected by changes in short-term interest rates primarily as a result of its revolving credit agreement, which
bears interest at a floating rate.  Acxiom does not use derivative or other financial instruments to mitigate the interest rate
risk.  Risk can be estimated by measuring the impact of a near-term adverse movement of 10% in short-term market interest rates.  If
short-term market interest rates increase 10% during the next four quarters compared to the previous four quarters, there would be no
material adverse impact on Acxiom's results of operations.  Acxiom has no material future earnings or cash flow expenses from changes
in interest rates related to its other long-term debt obligations as substantially all of Acxiom's remaining long-term debt
instruments have fixed rates.  At both June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, the fair value of Acxiom's fixed rate long-term obligations
approximated carrying value.

The Company has a presence in the United Kingdom, France, The Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Australia, and China.
In general, each of the foreign locations is expected to fund its own operations and cash flows, although funds may be loaned or
invested from the U.S. to the foreign subsidiaries.  Therefore, exchange rate movements of foreign currencies may have an impact on
Acxiom's future costs or on future cash flows from foreign investments.  Acxiom has not entered into any foreign currency forward
exchange contracts or other derivative instruments to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.


Item 4.  Controls and Procedures




(a)      Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.




         An evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report was carried out under the supervision and with
         the participation of the Company's management, including the Company Leader (Chief Executive Officer) and Chief Finance and
         Administration Leader (Chief Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's
         "disclosure controls and procedures," which are defined under SEC rules as controls and other procedures of a company that
         are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the
         Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods.  Based upon that evaluation, the
         Company Leader and Chief Finance and Administration Leader concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
         were effective.




(b)      Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting




         The Company's management, including the Company Leader (Chief Executive Officer) and the Chief Finance and Administration

         occurred during the quarterly period covered by this report, and has concluded that there was no change during the quarterly
         period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
         internal control over financial reporting.
