                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Description of operations

     The Corporate Executive Board Company (the "Company") provides "best
practices" research and analysis focusing on corporate strategy, operations and
general management issues. Best practice research identifies and analyzes
specific management initiatives, processes and strategies that have been
determined to produce the best results in solving common business problems or
challenges. For a fixed annual fee, members of each subscription program have
access to an integrated set of services, including best practices research
studies, executive education seminars, customized research briefs and on-line
access to the program's content database and other services.

Note 2 - Condensed financial statements

     The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements included herein
have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for
reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote
disclosures required for complete financial statements are not included herein.
It is recommended that these condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes of the Company as
reported on the Company's Form 8-K filed with the SEC in January 2000.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
condensed financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates
and for the periods presented have been included. The condensed balance sheet
presented as of December 31, 1999 has been derived from the financial statements
that have been audited by the Company's independent public accountants. The
results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 may not
be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December
31, 2000, or any other period within calendar year 2000.


Note 3 - Spin-off and initial and secondary public offering of common stock

     The Company was incorporated on September 11, 1997, under the laws of the
State of Delaware. The Company's business was operated as a division of The
Advisory Board Company, a Maryland corporation, until October 31, 1997 when the
business was contributed to the Company and spun-off to The Advisory Board
Company's sole stockholder (the "Spin-off").  In February 1999, 9,415,280 shares
of common stock of the Company were sold in an initial public offering (the
"Initial Public Offering"). In February 2000, 5,511,515 shares of common stock
of the Company were sold in a secondary public offering (the "Secondary
Offering"). The Company did not directly receive any proceeds from the sale of
common stock pursuant to the Initial Public Offering or Secondary Offering.
However, the Company did receive cash from the exercise of common stock options
in conjunction with the Initial Public Offering and Secondary Offering.
Subsequent to the Secondary Offering, the former sole stockholder owns no shares
of the Company's common stock. In addition, the Company recognized $940,000 in
compensation expense reflecting additional Federal Insurance Corporation Act
("FICA") taxes as a result of the taxable income that the employees recognized
upon the exercise of common stock options in conjunction with the Secondary
Offering. The additional FICA taxes are included within Stock option and related
expenses on the condensed statement of income.

Note 4 - Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share was computed by dividing net income by the number of
basic weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share was computed by dividing net income by the number of diluted
weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. The number of
weighted average common share equivalents outstanding has been determined in
accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common share equivalents consist of
common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock options. A
reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding is
as follows:

Note 5- Change in tax status and impact on earnings per share

     The Company was an "S" corporation for Federal income tax purposes until
immediately prior to the Initial Public Offering. As an "S" corporation, the
taxable income of the Company was passed through to the former sole stockholder
and was reported on his individual Federal income tax return. However, as the
District of Columbia does not recognize "S" corporation status, income taxes
related to the District of Columbia have been provided for within the condensed
financial statements. Just prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company
terminated its "S" corporation status and is now subject to Federal and state
income taxes at prevailing corporate rates. If the Company had been a "C"
corporation for Federal and state income tax purposes since January 1, 1999 and
recorded income taxes using an annual effective rate of 41.5%, pro forma net
income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have been $2.3 million
(unaudited), $0.18 (unaudited) and $0.15 (unaudited), respectively, for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 and $4.4 million (unaudited), $0.34 (unaudited)
and $0.28 (unaudited), respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1999.


Note 6 - Comprehensive income (loss)

     Comprehensive income (loss) is the change in equity of a business
enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances
from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenues,
expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles
are included in comprehensive income (loss), but excluded from net income
(loss). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the elements
within other comprehensive income, net of tax, consist solely of the change in
unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities. Comprehensive income
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, is $3.2 million and $2.0
million, respectively. Comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, is $5.9 million and $6.9 million, respectively.

Note 7 - Loan Agreement

     In May 2000, the Company entered into a $10.0 million, unsecured loan
agreement with a commercial bank that provides for a revolving line of credit
facility under which the Company may from time to time borrow, repay, and re-
borrow funds. The interest rate on any outstanding borrowings under the loan
agreement is the Eurodollar Daily Floating Rate plus .75 percent per annum. The
maturity date of the loan agreement is May 25, 2002. There have been no
borrowings under the loan agreement.

Note 8 - Supplemental cash flow disclosures

     For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company recognized
$29.6 million and $5.1 million, respectively, in stockholders' equity for tax
deductions associated with the exercise of non-qualified stock options.
Estimated current income tax payments for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, have been reduced by the consideration of the tax deductions associated
with the exercise of non-qualified stock options. In addition, in connection
with the Initial Public Offering, the former sole stockholder paid $1.4 million
in shares of common stock to selected employees to satisfy a portion of the
special bonus plan liability.


Note 9 - Financial statement reclassifications

     Certain amounts in the condensed financial statements as of and for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 have been reclassified to
conform to the presentation in the condensed financial statements as of and for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000.

Note 10 - Subsequent event

     The Company's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one split of the
Company's common stock to be effected in the form of a common stock dividend.
Each stockholder will receive one additional share of the Company's common
stock, payable on September 15, 2000, for each share of the Company's common
stock owned on September 1, 2000, the date of record.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of The Corporate Executive Board Company
(the "Company") contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on
the Company's current plans and expectations and involve risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual future activities and results of operations to be
materially different from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
indicated by forward-looking statements include, among others, the dependence on
the renewal of membership-based services, dependence on key personnel, the need
to attract and retain qualified personnel, management of growth, new product
development, competition, risks associated with anticipating market trends,
industry consolidation, variability of quarterly operating results, various
factors that could affect the estimated income tax rate, and possible volatility
of stock price. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise.


Overview

     The Company provides "best practices" research and analysis focusing on
corporate strategy, operations and  general management issues. Best practice
research identifies and analyzes specific management initiatives, processes and
strategies that have been  determined to produce the best results in solving
common business problems or  challenges. For a fixed annual fee, members of each
subscription program have access to an integrated set of services, including
best practices research  studies, executive education seminars, customized
research briefs and on-line  access to the program's content database and other
services.

     The Company was incorporated on September 11, 1997, under the laws of
the State of Delaware. The Company's business was operated as a division of The
Advisory Board Company, a Maryland corporation, until October 31, 1997 when the
business was contributed to the Company and spun-off to The Advisory Board
Company's sole stockholder (the "Spin-off").  In February 1999, 9,415,280 shares
of common stock of the Company were sold in an initial public offering (the
"Initial Public Offering"). In February 2000, 5,511,515 shares of common stock
of the Company were sold in a secondary public offering (the "Secondary
Offering"). The Company did not directly receive any proceeds from the sale of
common stock pursuant to the Initial Public Offering or Secondary Offering.
However, the Company did receive cash from the exercise of employee common stock
options in conjunction with the Initial Public Offering and Secondary Offering.
Subsequent to the Secondary Offering, the former sole stockholder owns no shares
of the Company's common stock.

     Subscription memberships, which are annually renewable contracts, are
generally payable by members at the beginning of the contract term.  Billings
attributable to the Company's subscription programs initially are recorded as
deferred revenues and then recognized pro rata over the subscription contract
term.

     One measure of the Company's business is its annualized "Contract Value,"
which the Company calculates as the aggregate annualized subscription membership
revenue attributed to all subscription membership agreements in effect at a
given point in time without regard to the remaining duration of any such
agreement, including an estimate of pending subscription membership renewals and
an estimate of members who will discontinue their subscription membership prior
to their annual renewal date in the subsequent year.  The Company's experience
has been that a substantial portion of members renew subscriptions for an equal
or higher level each year. Contract Value has increased 31.7% to $90.9 million
at June 30, 2000 from $69.0 million at June 30, 1999.

     The Company's operating costs and expenses consist of cost of services,
member relations and marketing, general and administrative expenses,
depreciation, and stock option and related expenses. Cost

                                       9
<PAGE>

of services represents the costs associated with the production and delivery of
the Company's products and services, including compensation of research
personnel and in-house faculty, the production of published materials, the
organization of member meetings and all associated support services. Member
relations and marketing expenses include the costs of acquiring new members and
renewing existing members and also include compensation expense (including sales
commissions), travel and all associated support services. General and
administrative expenses include the costs of human resources and recruiting,
finance and accounting, management information systems, facilities management,
new product development and other administrative functions of the Company. Stock
option and related expenses includes non-cash compensation expense related to
certain stock option agreements in existence at the time of the Spin-off and
includes additional compensation expense relating to the taxable income
recognized by employees upon the exercise of non-qualified common stock options.

</TABLE>

Three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999

     Revenues. Total revenues increased 35.4% to $22.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 from $16.7 million for the three months ended June
30, 1999. Total revenues increased 33.9% to $43.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 from $32.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to cross-selling, increased
sales of existing subscription programs, price increases, and the introduction
of two new subscription programs over the past twelve months.

     Cost of services. Cost of services increased 24.1% to $8.4 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 from $6.7 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1999. Cost of services increased 24.8% to $16.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 from $13.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999. The increase in cost of services was principally due to increased research
staffing and related

                                       10
<PAGE>

compensation costs to support the introduction of two new subscription programs
and an increase in short answer research and executive education services
staffing to serve the growing membership base. Cost of services as a percentage
of revenues decreased to 37.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from
40.4% for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Cost of services as a percentage
of revenues decreased to 38.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 from 41.7%
for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This decrease is attributable to the
fixed nature of the production costs of best practices research studies, as
these costs are not significantly affected by growth in the number of
subscription memberships.

     Member relations and marketing. Member relations and marketing costs
increased 38.6% to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from
$3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Member relations and
marketing costs increased 32.4% to $9.5 million for the six months ended June
30, 2000 from $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase
in member relations and marketing costs is primarily due to the increase in
sales staff and related costs, the increase in commission expense associated
with increased revenues, and the increase in member relations personnel and
related costs to serve the expanding membership base. Although the Company has
added member relations and marketing resources to increase revenues, member
relations and marketing costs have remained consistent as a percentage of total
revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

     General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased
37.3% to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from $2.1 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1999. General and administrative expenses
increased 36.4% to $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 from $4.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in general and
administrative expenses resulted primarily from staffing increases in general
management, human resources and recruiting, finance and accounting, management
information systems, and facilities management to support overall Company
growth. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses have
remained consistent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.

     Depreciation. Depreciation expense increased 76.0% to $463,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 from $263,000 for the three months ended June
30, 1999. Depreciation expense increased 90.6% to $915,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 from $480,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The
increase in depreciation expense was principally due to purchases of computer
equipment and software to support organizational growth.

     Stock option and related expenses. The Company recognized $96,000 in non-
cash compensation expense for each of the three months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 related to stock option agreements in existence at the time of the Spin-
off. The Company recognized $192,000 and $191,000 in non-cash compensation
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, related
to stock option agreements in existence at the time of the Spin-off. In
connection with the Spin-off, The Advisory Board Company executed substitution
agreements with each of the employees of the Company participating in The
Advisory Board Company stock option plan. The terms of the substitution
agreements resulted in compensation expense being recognized over the vesting
period. The Company will continue to recognize non-cash compensation expense
related to the substitution agreements in the years ending December 31, 2000 and
2001.  In addition, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company
recognized $36,000 and $976,000, respectively, in compensation expense
reflecting additional Federal Insurance Corporation Act ("FICA") taxes as a
result of the taxable income that the employees recognized upon the exercise of
common stock options, primarily in conjunction with the Secondary Offering.

     Provision for income taxes. The Company recorded a provision for income
taxes of $2.3 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of
$4.0 million and $252,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The difference in the effective income tax rates for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, primarily reflects the termination of
the "S" corporation status just prior to the Initial Public Offering on February
22, 1999 and the benefit of Federal income tax incentives associated with the
new location of its office facilities. Prior to February 22, 1999, the Company
was treated as an "S" corporation for Federal income tax purposes and recognized
income taxes only related to the District of

                                       11
<PAGE>

Columbia. However, just prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company
terminated its "S" corporation status and is now subject to Federal and state
income taxes at prevailing corporate rates.

     Gross profit trend. Historically, the gross margin (gross profit as a
percentage of total revenues) has fluctuated based upon the growth in revenues
offset by the cost of delivering best practices research studies, the timing of
executive education seminars, the volume of customized research briefs and the
hiring of personnel.  Accordingly, the gross margin for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000, may not be indicative of future results.


Liquidity and capital resources

     Cash flows from operating activities. The Company has financed its
operations to date through funds generated from operating activities.
Subscription memberships, which are primarily annually renewable contracts, are
generally payable by members at the beginning of the contract term.  The
combination of revenues growth and advance payment of subscription memberships
has historically resulted in net positive cash flows provided by operating
activities.  The Company generated net cash flows from operating activities of
$19.9 million and $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2000, operating cash flow was
generated principally by net income, the utilization of tax benefits created by
the employee compensation expense recognized for income tax reporting purposes
which resulted from the exercise of common stock options, the collection of
membership fees receivable and the increase in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities. These sources of cash were offset by a decrease in deferred
revenues and in accrued incentive compensation. For the six months ended June
30, 1999, operating cash flow was generated principally by net income and the
collection of membership fees receivable, offset by a decrease in deferred
revenues. As of June 30, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and
marketable securities of $52.7 million. Management expects that its current cash
and cash equivalents and marketable securities balances and anticipated net
positive cash flows from operations will satisfy working capital, financing
activities and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months.

     Cash flows from investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities
was $27.6 million and $6.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company
purchased, net of disposals, $4.1 million in computer equipment and software and
purchased, net of sales, $23.5 million in marketable securities. During the six
months ended June 30, 1999, the Company invested $3.0 million in property and
equipment and purchased, net of sales, $10.4 million in marketable securities,
offset by the repayment of a $6.5 million note receivable from the former sole
stockholder.

     Cash flows from financing activities. Net cash provided by financing
activities during the six months ended June 30, 2000, was $3.4 million and net
cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 1999, was
$6.8 million.  Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months
ended June 30, 2000, was attributed to receipt of $5.0 million in cash from the
exercise of common stock options, primarily in conjunction with the Secondary
Offering. In addition, the Company entered into agreements with certain
employees prior to the Spin-off relating to the repurchase of stock options at
fixed amounts. The Company paid $1.6 million related to these agreements in the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and is obligated to pay an addition $3.1 million
in 2000. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June
30, 1999, was attributable to a distribution to the former sole stockholder
prior to the Initial Public Offering of $4.0 million and the payment of offering
costs associated with the Initial Public Offering of $1.6 million. The payment
of the offering costs is treated for accounting purposes as a distribution to
our previous sole stockholder. In addition, the Company paid $2.9 million
related to the agreements with certain employees prior to the Spin-off for the
repurchase of stock options at fixed amounts. The former sole stockholder and
the Company also agreed to pay a special bonus to selected employees of $2.4
million. The amount was paid at the date of Initial Public Offering, 60%, or
$1.4 million, in shares of common stock owned by the former sole stockholder
(valued for this purpose at the initial price offered to the public) and 40%, or
$1.0 million, in cash by the Company.  The total repurchase

of stock options liability of $7.7 million and the total special bonus payment
liability of $2.4 million were expensed by the Company prior to December 31,
1998.

     In May 2000, the Company entered into a $10.0 million, unsecured loan
agreement with a commercial bank that provides for a revolving line of credit
facility under which the Company may from time to time borrow, repay, and re-
borrow funds. There have been no borrowings under the loan agreement.  In
addition, the Company has entered into a $1.3 million letter of credit
agreement, expiring June 2003, with a commercial bank to provide a security
deposit for the Company's headquarters office lease.  The Company pledged
certain assets as collateral under the letter of credit agreement.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

       The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through a
portfolio of cash equivalents and marketable securities, which is designed for
safety of principal and liquidity and consists primarily of Washington, D.C.
municipal and agency fixed income securities. This portfolio is subject to
inherent interest rate risk as investments mature and are re-invested at current
market interest rates. The Company currently does not use derivative financial
instruments to adjust its portfolio risk or income profile.
