                                  Introduction

               On  December  23,  1997,  LCS  Industries,  Inc.  ("LCS"  or  the
"Company"),  a Delaware  corporation,  filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year
ended September 30, 1997 (the "1997 Form 10-K"). Pursuant to General Instruction
3 to Form 10-K ("General  Instruction 3"), the information called for by Item 10
(insofar as it relates to  Directors  of the Company) and by Items 11, 12 and 13
of Part III of Form 10-K was not  included  in the body of the 1997 Form 10-K as
filed,  but was incorporated by reference to the Company's Proxy Statement which
was expected to be filed with the Commission  within the 120-day period referred
to in General Instruction 3. Because the Company is not in fact filing its Proxy
Statement  within such 120-day  period,  this Form 10-K/A-1 amends the 1997 Form
10-K by deleting  therefrom the caption and first paragraph of Item 10 and Items
11,  12 and 13 in their  entirety,  and  substituting  therefore  the  following
additions to Item 10 and the following replacements for Items 11, 12 and 13.
