A time-series data analyzing apparatus which extracts a composite factor time-series pattern from time-series data. The apparatus includes a dividing device which divides the time-series data into pattern generation time-series data and pattern inspection time-series data which do not include pattern generation time-series data. A first generating device generates a transitional pattern including a support time data indicating a transition of support time and having a transition occurrence probability higher than a minimum occurrence probability in the pattern generation time-series data. A second generating device generates frequently appearing integrated transitional patterns. A second computing device computes cause-and-effect strength of each of the frequently appearing integrated transitional patterns using the pattern inspection time-series data. A display device displays the composite factor time-series pattern having the cause-and-effect strength higher than the minimum cause-and-effect strength given preliminarily.
