NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of NCI, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. As a result, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments and reclassifications
(all of which are of a normal, recurring nature) that are necessary to a fair presentation of the results for such periods. The information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for these periods is unaudited. For further information,
refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in NCIs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The current periods results of
operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for any future period.

2. Business Overview

NCI is a provider of information technology (IT), engineering, and professional services and solutions to federal government agencies. Our offerings focus on designing,
implementing, maintaining and upgrading secure IT systems and networks by leveraging our skills across eight core competencies: enterprise systems management; network engineering; information assurance; systems engineering and integration; program
management, acquisition, and lifecycle support; engineering and logistics; medical transformation/health IT; and distance learning and training. The Company provides these services to defense, intelligence, and federal civilian agencies. The
majority of the Companys revenue was derived from contracts with the federal government, directly as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor. The Company primarily conducts business throughout the United States.

3. Earnings Per Share

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 128,Earnings Per Share, requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share exclude dilution and are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. The computation of earnings per share presented is for both Class A and Class B common stock.

Diluted earnings per share
reflect potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted earnings per share include the incremental effect of stock options calculated using the
treasury stock method.

The following details the historical computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share (Class A and Class B).

costs of approximately $0.1 million, and assumed liabilities related to employee vacation balances of approximately $0.4 million. The acquired assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value under the purchase method of accounting. The acquired
identified intangible assets had a fair market value of approximately $4.3 million. As the cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired, goodwill was recorded in the amount of $11.2 million.

Operational Technologies Services, Inc.

Effective January 31,
2007, the Company completed the acquisition of Operational Technologies Services, Inc. (OTS). The definitive agreement for the acquisition of OTS provided for various contingent consideration. As of June 30, 2008, NCI has accrued approximately
$0.7 million as additional consideration for OTS. This amount will be paid during the third quarter of 2008. Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, the payment has been treated as additional cost of the
acquisition and added to goodwill.

6. Loan and Security Agreement

The borrowing capacity under the credit facility consists of a revolving line of credit with a principal amount of up to $90.0 million, which includes a swingline facility with an original principal amount of up to
$5.0 million. The outstanding balance of the facility accrues interest based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, ranging from 100 to 175 basis points, based on a ratio of funded debt to earnings. The credit facility expires on March 14, 2011.

The outstanding borrowings are collateralized by a security interest in substantially all of the Companys assets. The lenders also require a direct
assignment of all contracts at the lenders discretion.

The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict
the Companys ability to: incur or guarantee additional debt; make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments, including cash dividends on the Companys outstanding common stock; enter into transactions with certain
affiliates; create or permit certain liens; and consolidate, merge, or sell assets. In addition, the credit facility contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to: maintain a minimum tangible net worth; maintain a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio and a ratio of funded debt to earnings; and limit capital expenditures below certain thresholds.

and $0, respectively.

Management believes that all transactions with related parties have been conducted based on then current market conditions.

8. Income Taxes

Effective January 1, 2007, the
Company adopted the provisions of FIN No. 48. Previously, the Company had accounted for tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. The Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions.
It is the Companys accounting policy to record any interest or penalties incurred in connection with income taxes as interest expense or general and administrative expenses, respectively, for financial reporting purposes. There are no amounts
accrued for interest or penalties.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. Tax statutes and regulations within

9. New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations(SFAS No. 141). SFAS No. 141(R) retains the underlying concepts of SFAS No. 141 in that
all business combinations are still required to be accounted for at fair value under the acquisition method of accounting, but SFAS No. 141(R) changed the method of applying the acquisition method in a number of significant aspects. Acquisition
costs will generally be expensed as incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the
acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition
date generally will affect income tax expense. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective on a prospective basis for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual period subsequent to
December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not permitted.

We generate the
vast majority of our revenue from federal government contracts. We report operating results and financial data as one operating segment. Revenue from our contracts and task orders is generally linked to trends in federal government spending by
defense, intelligence, and federal civilian agencies. The following table shows our revenue from the client groups listed as a percentage of total revenue for the period shown.

Revenue

The
majority of our revenue is derived from services and solutions provided to the federal government, primarily by our employees and, to a lesser extent, our subcontractors. In some cases, our revenue includes third-party hardware and software that we
purchase on behalf of our clients. The level of hardware and software purchases we make for clients may vary from period to period depending on specific contract and client requirements.

Contract Types

Our services and solutions are provided under three types of contracts: time-and-materials;
cost-plus; and fixed-price. Our contract mix varies from year to year due to numerous factors including our business strategies and federal government procurement objectives.

The following table shows our revenue from each of these types of contracts as a percentage of our total revenue for the periods shown.



|                   |  |                             |   |  |                           |   |  |      |   |  |      |

|                   |  | Three months ended June 30, |   |  | Six months ended June 30, |  
|                   |  | 2008                        |   |  | 2007                      |   |  | 2008 |   |  | 2007 |  
|Time-and-materials |  | 46.8                        | % |  | 41.4                      | % |  | 43.4 | % |  | 40.0 | %
|Cost-plus          |  | 23.2                        | % |  | 31.8                      | % |  | 24.5 | % |  | 29.7 | %
|Fixed-price        |  | 30.0                        | % |  | 26.8                      | % |  | 32.1 | % |  | 30.3 | %

The amount of risk and potential reward varies under each type of contract. Under time-and-materials contracts,
where we are paid a fixed hourly rate by labor category, to the extent that our actual labor costs vary significantly from the negotiated hourly rates, we may generate more or less than the targeted amount of profit. We are typically reimbursed for
other contract direct costs and expenses at our cost, and typically receive no fee on those costs.

##### Table of Contents

Under cost-plus type contracts, there is limited financial risk, since we are reimbursed all of our allowable costs, and
therefore, the profit margins tend to be lower on cost-plus type contracts. Under fixed-price contracts, we perform specific tasks or provide specified goods for a predetermined price. Compared to time-and-materials and cost-plus contracts,
fixed-price services contracts generally offer higher profit margin opportunities but involve greater financial risk because we bear the impact of potential cost overruns in return for the full benefit of any cost savings. The majority of our
services work under fixed-price service contracts is fixed-price level-of-effort work, which has a lower risk than fixed-price completion contracts. The fixed-price completion contracts we do perform tend to be for a period of one year or less. Our
cost-plus contracts have decreased as a percentage of revenue primarily because the acquisitions we have completed tended to have a higher mix of time-and-materials and fixed-price contracts, as well as many of our new tasks orders under our GWACs
have been time-and-materials or fixed-price.

Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily includes direct costs incurred to provide our services and
solutions to clients. The most significant portion of these costs is salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits including stock compensation, of our employees directly serving clients, in addition to the related management, facilities, and
infrastructure costs. Cost of revenue also includes the costs of subcontractors and outside consultants, third-party materials, such as hardware or software that we purchase and provide to the client as part of an integrated solution, and any other
related direct costs, such as travel expenses. Since we earn higher profits on our own labor services, we expect the ratio of cost of revenue as a percent of revenue to decline when our labor services mix increases relative to subcontracted labor or
third-party material. Conversely, as subcontracted labor or third-party material purchases for clients increase relative to our own labor services, we expect the ratio of cost of revenue as a percent of revenue to increase. Changes in the mix of
services and equipment provided under our contracts can result in variability in our contract margins. In addition, as we continue to bid and win larger contracts, our own labor services component could decrease. This is because the larger contracts
typically are broader in scope and require more diverse capabilities resulting in more subcontracted labor and the potential for more third-party hardware and software purchases. While these factors could lead to a higher ratio of cost of revenue as
a percent of revenue, the economics of these larger jobs are nonetheless generally favorable because they increase income, broaden our revenue base, and have a favorable return on invested capital.

General and Administrative Expenses

General
and administrative expenses include corporate business development, bid and proposal, contracts administration, finance and accounting, legal, corporate governance, and executive and senior management. The primary items of general and administration
expenses are the salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits including stock compensation, and the facilities related costs of our employees performing these functions.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation
and amortization includes the depreciation of computers, furniture and other equipment, the amortization of third party software we use internally, and leasehold improvements.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets includes the amortization of identifiable intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Non-compete agreements are generally amortized straight-line over the term of the agreement, while contracts
and related client relationships are amortized proportionately against the acquired backlog.

Interest Income and Expense

Interest income is primarily related to earnings on short-term, highly liquid investments of our excess cash. Interest expense is primarily related to interest expense
incurred or accrued under our outstanding borrowings and interest on capital leases.

Revenue

For
the three months ended June 30, 2008, total revenue increased by 44.4% or $29.6 million, over the same period a year ago. Approximately $25.7 million of the increase is the result of our acquisitions of Karta Technologies, Inc. (Karta) during
June 2007 and the PEO Soldier contract assets during March 2008. Additionally, we had a number of new task awards under our GWAC contract vehicles, primarily ITES-2S and NETCENTS, as well as growth on a number of existing programs. This growth was
partially offset by revenue reductions from programs that have been completed as well as timing of product related deliveries on some projects.

Cost of
revenue

Cost of revenue increased 41.8%, or $24.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period a year ago.
The increase was attributable to an increase in direct labor and associated indirect costs, subcontractor costs, and other direct costs such as travel, driven by the increase in revenue. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in
hardware and product related expenses. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 85.7% and 87.3% for the quarters ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The 1.6% decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the quarter
ended June 30, 2008 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2007 resulted primarily from the increase in direct labor, which typically carries our highest margin, and the decrease in hardware and product related expenses, which typically
carry our lowest margins.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expense increased 77.4%, or $2.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period a year ago. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to 5.7%
from 4.7% for the quarters ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase was due to significantly higher bid and proposal costs incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2008, which was up approximately $770,000 as compared to
the same quarter of 2007 due to much higher proposal activity. Additionally, our corporate infrastructure costs have increased as a result of our acquisitions, as well as investments we have made in our business development functions.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense
was approximately $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in depreciation and amortization is due primarily to the additional assets from our acquisitions.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets was approximately $0.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $0.2 million for the period ended June 30, 2007. The increase is due to the amortization of
the intangible assets associated with our acquisitions of Karta and the PEO Soldier assets, offset by declining amortization associated with our acquisition of Scientific and Engineering Solutions, Inc..

Operating income

For the three months ended June 30, 2008,
operating income was $7.3 million, or 7.6% of revenue, compared to $4.8 million, or 7.2% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Operating income was higher for the three months ended June 30, 2008 due to the higher revenue
volume as compared to the same period in the prior year. We also received approximately $600,000 more in award fees during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Operating income, as a percent of
revenue, was higher for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower costs of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the quarter because of the higher labor content and lower hardware and
product related expenses. This was offset by the higher general and administrative expenses, due primarily to higher bid and proposal and business development expenses.

Interest Income/Expense

Net interest expense was approximately $0.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008
as compared to net interest income of $0.2 million for the corresponding quarter during 2007. The increase is due to the use of cash and debt for our acquisitions.

Income Taxes

The increase in income taxes of $0.7 million is the result of the increase in operating income and a 0.3% rate increase. The
effective income tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 is approximately 39.8% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 39.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Revenue

For
the six months ended June 30, 2008, total revenue increased by 43.4% or $56.8 million, over the same period a year ago. Approximately $44.4 million of the increase is the result of our acquisitions of Karta Technologies during June 2007 and the
PEO Soldier contract assets during March 2008. Additionally, we had a number of new task awards under our GWAC contract vehicles, primarily ITES-2S and NETCENTS, as well as growth on a number of existing programs, including the implementation of the
Microsoft Exchange 2007 Messaging solution for the Air National Guard. This growth was partially offset by revenue reductions from programs that have ended and significantly lower NETCENTS products sales.

##### Table of Contents

Cost of revenue

Cost
of revenue increased 42.3%, or $48.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was attributable to an increase in direct labor and associated indirect costs, higher subcontractor
costs, and other direct costs due to the increase in revenue. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 86.2% and 86.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The 0.4% decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of
revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 is due to the higher proportional increase in direct labor, which typically carries our highest margins.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative
expense increased 53.3%, or $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period a year ago. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to 5.4% from 5.1% for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase is due primarily to higher bid and proposal costs, which were approximately $1.1 million higher for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007,
increased infrastructure expenses associated with our acquisitions, and investments in our corporate business development resources.

Depreciation and
Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007, respectively. The increase in depreciation and amortization is due primarily to the additional assets from our acquisitions.

Amortization of
Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets was approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $0.4 million for the
same period during 2007. The increase is due primarily to the intangible assets associated with our acquisitions.

Operating income

For the six months ended June 30, 2008 operating income was $13.9 million, or 7.4% of revenue, compared to $9.5 million, or 7.2% of revenue, for the six months ended
June 30, 2007. Operating income was higher for the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to the higher revenue volume as compared to the same period in the prior year. Operating income, as a percent of revenue, was higher for the six months
ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period in the prior year due to the lower percentage of cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue due to the increase in direct labor revenue. That increase was slightly offset due to the higher
percentage of general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, primarily due to higher bid and proposal and business development expenses.

Interest Income/Expense

Net interest expense was approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to net
interest income of $0.3 million for the same period during 2007. The increase is due to the use of cash and debt for our acquisitions.

Income Taxes

The increase in income taxes of $1.3 million is the result of the increase in operating income and a 0.5% rate increase. The effective income tax rate
for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is approximately 40.0% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 39.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Contract Backlog

At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, our estimated backlog was $994 million and $756
million, respectively, of which $156 million and $189 million, respectively, was funded. We define backlog as our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts over the remaining base contract performance period and

from the option periods of those contracts, assuming the exercise of all related options. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which
funding currently is appropriated and obligated to us under a contract or other authorization for payment signed by an authorized purchasing agency, less the amount of revenue we have previously recognized. Our backlog does not include any estimate
of future potential delivery orders that might be awarded under our GWAC or other multiple award contract vehicles. Additional information on how we determine backlog is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal ended
December 31, 2007 filed with the SEC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs are for financing working capital, investing in capital expenditures, and making selective strategic acquisitions. Historically, we have relied primarily on our cash flow from operations
and borrowings under our credit facility to provide the capital for our liquidity needs. We expect the combination of our current cash, cash flow from operations, and the available borrowing capacity on our credit facility to continue to meet our
normal working capital and capital expenditure requirements. As part of our growth strategy, we may pursue acquisitions that could require us to obtain additional debt or issue equity.

During the first quarter of 2008, we borrowed approximately $15.0 million from our credit facility for the acquisition of the PEO Soldier contract assets from MTC Technologies, Inc. Generally, our most significant use
of working capital is for accounts receivables. During the second quarter of 2008, the balance of accounts receivable increased by $3.8 million to $93.5 million at the end of the quarter. Days sales outstanding of accounts receivable (DSO) stood at
88 days as of June 30, 2008. This compares to a DSO of 92 days as of December 31, 2007. We are continuing to work with our customers and improve our internal processes to reduce our DSO.

Funds borrowed under the revolving credit facility will be used to finance possible future acquisitions, to provide for working capital expenditures and for general
corporate uses. As of June 30, 2008, there was $57.0 million outstanding under the credit facility.

Credit Agreement: The borrowing capacity
under our Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) consists of a revolving credit facility with an original principal amount of up to $90.0 million, which includes a swingline facility with an original principal amount of up to
$5.0 million. The outstanding balance of the facility accrues interest based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin, ranging from 100 to 175 basis points, based on a ratio of funded debt to earnings. Interest is accruing at LIBOR plus 100 basis points
or 3.459% as of June 30, 2008. The credit facility expires on March 14, 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

There have been no significant changes to our Critical Accounting Policies during 2008. Refer to our Critical Accounting Policies section in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed with the SEC.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Our exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates for borrowings under our Credit Agreement. A 1% change in interest rates would have changed our interest expense and cash flow by approximately $148,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2008 and approximately $262,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Additionally, we are subject to credit risks associated with
our cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. We believe that the concentration of credit risks with respect to cash equivalents and investments are limited due to the high credit quality of these investments. Our investment policy requires
that we invest excess cash in high quality investments which preserve principal, provide liquidity, and minimize investment risk. We also believe that our credit risk associated with accounts receivable is limited as they are primarily with the
federal government or prime contractors working for the federal government.
