             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

                                January 31, 1997

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended
January 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 1997. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30,
1996 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On September 26, 1996 the Company issued 461,536 shares of common stock in a
merger of Delta Software Systems, Inc. ("Delta Software") with and into a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of
interests. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements have been
restated for all periods to include the results of operations and financial
position of Delta Software. For purposes of earnings per share computations, the
shares issued in the combination with Delta Software have been treated as
outstanding for all periods.

Note B - Change in Capitalization

Effective December 21, 1995, the Company's Charter was amended to, among other
things, increase the authorized shares of common stock from 1,000,000 to
20,000,000 and to authorize 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. In connection
with the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO") on February 14, 1996, the
Board declared a 5.56-for-1 common stock split, resulting in the issuance of
4,418,220 additional shares of common stock. In connection with the stock split,
$44,182 was reclassified from retained earnings to common stock. All share and
per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the stock split.

In February 1996, the Company completed the IPO, resulting in the issuance of
1,495,000 shares of common stock to the public.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On September 26, 1996 the Company issued 461,536 shares of common stock in a
merger of Delta Software Systems, Inc. ("Delta Software") with and into a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of
interests. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements of the Company
and the following discussions have been restated for all periods to include the
financial condition and results of operations of Delta Software.

Results of Operations

Revenue increased from $14.7 million for the quarter ended January 31,1996 to
$15.5 million for the quarter ended January 31, 1997, an increase of
approximately 5.3%. Revenue increased from $41.5 million for the first nine
months of fiscal 1996 to $46.7 million for the comparable period of fiscal 1997,
an increase of approximately 12.4%. These increases were attributable primarily
to the expansion of the Company's client base, an increase in consulting and
professional staffing services provided to existing clients, and an increase in
equipment and software sales.

Gross profit decreased from $4.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 to
$3.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, a decrease of approximately
1.7%. The decrease in the current quarter was primarily attributable to the
Company's investment in the development of a Year 2000 suite of services and the
timing of holidays in the quarter. Gross profit increased from $12.1 million in
the fiscal 1996 nine month period to $12.8 million in the comparable period of
fiscal 1997, an increase of approximately 5.5%. The increase in the nine months
in fiscal 1997 was attributable primarily to the increase in revenue over the
prior period. Gross profit margin for the quarter decreased from 27.2% to 25.4%,
primarily because of the (i) investment made during the quarter for the
development of Year 2000 services, (ii) the costs associated with the
development of a governmental budgeting and tracking software package for
resale, and (iii) underutilization of certain technical staff in anticipation of
new consulting agreements. Gross margin for the nine month period decreased from
29.2% to 27.4%, primarily for the same reasons causing the quarterly decrease.

Compensation for key executives decreased from $755,820 in the third quarter of
fiscal 1996 to $150,000 in the comparable period of fiscal 1997. Compensation
for key executives decreased from $3,464,840 in the fiscal 1996 nine month
period to $550,000 in the comparable period in fiscal 1997. This decrease
resulted from the decrease in compensation of T. Scott Cobb, Chairman, and Ben
C. Bryant, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to employment
contracts effective as of February 14, 1996 in connection with the Company's
initial public offering ("IPO").

Other selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.1 million in the
third quarter of fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1997. Other selling, general and
administrative expenses were $6,999,000 in the fiscal 1996 nine month period and
$6,933,000 in the comparable period in fiscal 1997. The fiscal 1996 nine month
period included a charge of $1.2 million for stock bonuses granted in the second
quarter of fiscal 1996. As a percent of revenues, other selling, general and
administrative expenses declined from 14.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 1996
to 13.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 1997.


                                       -7-

<PAGE>   8

Other selling, general and administrative expenses were 16.9% of revenue in the
fiscal 1996 nine month period and 14.9% in the comparable period in fiscal 1997.
The Company believes that other selling, general and administrative expenses
will continue to decline as a percent of revenue.

Other selling, general and administrative expenses include $161,000 in expenses
in the current quarter and $849,000 for the nine months in the current fiscal
year relating to the government's continuing investigation of the Company's
Tennessee Valley Authority billings. Also included in expenses for the nine
month period in the current fiscal year were $118,000 in expenses in connection
with the merger with Delta Software.

Net income for the quarter ended January 31, 1997 increased to $1,165,000, or
$.16 per share, compared with $668,000, or $.11 per share, for the quarter ended
January 31, 1996. Net income for the nine month period ended January 31, 1997
increased 256% to $3,777,000, or $.50 per share, compared with net income of
$1,061,000, or $.18 per share, for the comparable period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flow has historically been the Company's primary source of liquidity. Cash
flows from operations were $305,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 1996,
as compared to $1,969,000 in the comparable period for 1997. The cash provided
by operations increased during this period primarily because of increased
profits.

The Company's working capital increased from $3,426,000 for the third quarter of
fiscal 1996 to $27,579,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, primarily
because of the IPO in February 1996 and the receipt of $20.8 million in net
proceeds. The Company's current ratio at January 31, 1997 was 13:1.

Effective February 28, 1997, the Company acquired substantially all of the
assets and assumed certain liabilities of Technology Management Resources, Inc.
("TMRI"). A portion of the purchase price consisted of $8,500,000 in cash,
$8,000,000 of which was paid to TMRI and $500,000 of which is being held in
escrow to secure potential indemnification claims.

The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the net
proceeds from the IPO, will be sufficient to fund the Company's operating needs
for at least the next twelve months. Although the Company is currently in
preliminary discussion with several firms regarding potential acquisitions,
presently there are no definitive agreements with such firms, and no assurance
can be made that any transaction currently being discussed will be consummated.
Any such transactions may be financed through the use of cash, the issuance of
securities (including Common Stock), or a combination of both.
