Note 1.       Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial
statements of KPMG Consulting, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These statements do not include all of the
information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles, and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The accompanying
consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reflect
all adjustments (consisting solely of normal, recurring adjustments) which are,
in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for
these interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months
ended December 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2002. Certain prior period
amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.

         On August 29, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a
shareholder rights plan. Under the plan, a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right (a "Right") was declared for each outstanding share of common
stock of the Company that was outstanding on October 2, 2001. Each Right
entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share
of a new series of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Shares") at a price of $90 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share, subject
to adjustment. The Rights are traded with the common stock and are not
exercisable until the occurrence of certain specified events (relating to
certain actual or prospective changes in ownership interests in the Company's
common stock of 15 percent or more). Until such specified events occur, the
Board of Directors may redeem the Rights for $0.01 per Right. The Rights will
expire on October 2, 2011.

Note 2.       Segment Reporting

         The Company discloses business segments under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 established standards for the
way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and required those enterprises to report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial statements.

         Through fiscal 2001 the Company provided consulting services through
six major industry groups in which it has significant industry-specific
knowledge. Effective July 1, 2001, the Company transferred the health care
group's businesses into high technology and public services; accordingly the
company now provides services through five major industry groups. Additionally,
Canada was transferred from International to the five industry groups, resulting
in a North American region. Prior year information has been reclassified to
reflect these changes.

Note 4.           Business Combinations

         On August 2, 2001, the Company acquired a regional consulting practice
in Southeast Asia, consisting of businesses and marketing rights of KPMG
International member firms in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan for
$16.9 million ($6.8 million cash was paid at closing). The allocation of the
purchase price to acquired assets and liabilities, determined in accordance with
SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," resulted in the allocation of $14.8
million to goodwill and $2.3 million to finite-lived intangibles.

         On October 3, 2001, the Company acquired the consulting practice of
the KPMG International member firm in Australia for approximately $29.0 million
(of which $26.2 million was paid in cash at closing). The allocation of the
purchase price to acquired assets and liabilities, determined in accordance with
SFAS No.141, resulted in the allocation of $18.9 million to goodwill and $10.8
million to finite lived intangibles.

         These acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases, in accordance
with SFAS No. 141.  The pro forma effects on operations were not material.

Note 5.           Adoption of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
                  Assets"

         Effective July 1, 2001, the Company elected to early-adopt SFAS No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which establishes financial
accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and
supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets."
Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no
longer amortized but are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Separable
intangible assets that have finite useful lives, will continue to be amortized
over their useful lives.

         SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the
reporting unit level at adoption and at least annually thereafter, utilizing a
two step methodology. The initial step requires the Company to determine the
fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the carrying value,
including goodwill, of such unit. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value,
no impairment loss would be recognized. However, if the carrying value of the
reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the

                                       8

<PAGE>

goodwill of this unit may be impaired. The amount, if any, of the impairment
would then be measured in the second step.

     In connection with adopting this standard as of July 1, 2001, during the
first quarter the Company completed step one of the test for impairment, which
indicated that the carrying values of certain reporting units exceeded their
estimated fair values, as determined utilizing various valuation techniques
including discounted cash flow and comparative market analysis. Thereafter,
given the indication of a potential impairment, the Company completed step two
of the test. Based on that analysis, a transitional impairment loss of $80.0
million, or $0.50 per basic and diluted earnings per share, was recognized as
the cumulative effect of an accounting change. The transitional impairment
charge resulted from a change in the criteria for the measurement of the
impairment loss from undiscounted cash flows, a method required by SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of," to discounted cash flows as required by SFAS No. 142.

     Net income (loss), and basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share for
the three and six months ended December 31, 2000 are set forth below as if
accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets had been accounted for in
the same manner for all periods presented. The adjustment of previously reported
net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share represents the recorded
amortization of goodwill and other purchased intangibles (assembled workforce).

Note 6.   Reduction in Workforce

     In November 2001, the Company recorded a $17.7 million charge for severance
and termination benefits related to a worldwide reduction in workforce and a
$2.5 million charge related to the impairment of third-party software licenses.
The reduction in workforce affected approximately 325 employees and was the
result of aligning the Company's workforce with market demand for certain types
of services. All of the affected employees have been terminated and are no
longer employed by the Company.

A summary of the movements in the Company's accrual for severance and
termination benefits from June 30, 2001 to December 31, 2001 is as follows:

Note 7.   Subsequent Events

     On February 1, 2002 the Company filed with the SEC a Schedule TO relating
to a self tender offer for employee stock options with an exercise price of
$55.50. Under the offering, holders of such options (other than executive
officers and directors of the Company) have the opportunity to surrender their
options as of March 1, 2002 and, in exchange, receive an equal number of options
to be issued in September 2002 (or at a later date if the exchange offer is
extended) with an exercise price equal to 110% of the then fair market value of
the Company's common stock. The replacement options will vest equally over three
years. As of the date of the tender offer there were approximately 6 million
options outstanding with an exercise price of $55.50. Consummation of this offer
will result in additional compensation expense of approximately $1 million to be
recognized by the Company over the vesting period of the replacement options.

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

     The following information should be read in conjunction with the
information contained in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and
notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties. See the discussion relating to "Forward-Looking
Statements" below.

     Accounting polices that management believes are most critical to the
Company's financial condition and operating results pertain to revenue
recognition and valuation of unbilled revenues (including estimates of costs to
complete engagements); collectibility of accounts receivable; valuation of
goodwill; and judgments about discretionary compensation costs and effective
income tax rates. In deriving accounting estimates, management considered
available information and exercised reasonable judgment. However, actual results
could differ from these estimates.

HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW

The Company realized net income applicable to common stockholders for the three
months ended December 31, 2001 of $6.6 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to
a net loss of $53.4 million, or $0.70 per share for the three months ended
December 31, 2000. Included in operating results for the quarter ended December
31, 2001, was a $20.2 million charge ($12.8 million net of tax) predominantly
related to a reduction in workforce. Included in operating results for the
quarter ended December 31, 2000, was a $63.3 million non-operating loss on
redemption of an equity interest in affiliate ($58.5 million net of tax).
Excluding the after-tax effects of the aforementioned charges, operating net
income for the three months ended December 31, 2001, was $19.4 million compared
to $20.9 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2000. The slight decrease in
profitability was driven by a decline in revenue of $109.4 million, partially
offset by lower levels of operating expenses.

After deducting an $80.0 million after-tax charge representing the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle, the Company realized a net loss
applicable to common stockholders of $51.0 million, or $0.32 per share for the
six months ended December 31, 2001, compared to a net loss of $48.7 million, or
$0.64 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2000. Included in
operating results for the six months ended December 31, 2001, was the $20.2
million charge referred to above. Included in results for the six months ended
December 31, 2000, was $76.0 million charge representing equity in losses of
affiliate and loss on redemption of equity interest in affiliate ($71.2 million
net of tax). Excluding the after-tax effects of the aforementioned charges,
operating net income for the six months ended December 31, 2001, was $41.7
million compared to $54.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2000.
This decrease in profitability was driven by a decline in revenue of $179.9
million, partially offset by lower levels of operating expenses.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31,
2000

Revenues. Revenues decreased $109.4 million, or 15.6%, from $702.6 million in
the three months ended December 31, 2000, to $593.2 million in the three months
ended December 31, 2001.

This overall decrease is primarily attributable to a slower economy than that of
the same quarter last year. Public Services remained strong with growth of
22.2%, however, this growth was more than offset by declines in Financial
Services and High Tech of 59.7% and 55.1%, respectively. International revenue
also grew by 41.2%, which is largely due to the acquisitions of the Australia
and Southeast Asia consulting practices.

The Company expects this period of economic uncertainty may continue to impact
revenue growth for at least another quarter.

Gross Margin. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues was 22.4% for the three
months ended December 31, 2001. This reflects an increase from 21.6% for the
three months ended December 31, 2000. The increase in gross margin percentage
was primarily due to a reduction in the Company's expenses as a result of a
continued focus on expense control.

                                       12

<PAGE>

In dollar terms, gross margin decreased by $18.9 million, or 12.4%, from $151.8
million for the three months ended December 31, 2000, to $132.9 million for the
three months ended December 31, 2001. Included in gross margin for the quarter
ended December 31, 2001, was a $20.2 million charge primarily related to a
reduction in workforce. The decrease in gross margin was due to a decline in
revenue of $109.4 million described above, offset by:

     .    A net decrease in professional compensation of $46.2 million, or
          16.7%, excluding the $17.7 million charge recorded in the current
          quarter. This decrease was predominantly due to the Company's
          reduction in workforce actions taken in the current quarter and the
          fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. The $17.7 million charge taken in the
          current quarter pertains to the reduction in workforce of
          approximately 325 employees, primarily in North America and Latin
          America, in order to balance workforce capacity with market demand for
          services. In addition, incentive compensation accruals were also
          lower.

     .    A net decrease in other direct contract expenses of $41.0 million, or
          20.9%, to $155.5 million, representing 26.2% of revenue, compared to
          $196.6 million, or 28.0% of revenue in the prior year's quarter. The
          decrease is attributable to lower revenue levels combined with a
          decline in travel-related expenses resulting, in part, from the events
          of September 11th. Subcontractor usage as a percentage of revenue has
          also declined as the Company continued its efforts to strategically
          utilize subcontractors to supplement its workforce.

     .    A net decrease in other costs of service of $21.0 million, or 26.9%,
          from $78.0 million to $57.0 million, was primarily due to tighter
          controls on discretionary expenses and reduced headcount, offset by a
          $2.5 million charge related to the impairment of third-party software
          licenses. Additionally, bad debt expense decreased $7.5 million due to
          greater emphasis on credit reviews and strengthened cash collections.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $114.8 million for the three months ended December
31, 2001. This reflects an increase of $3.7 million, or 3.4%, from $111.1
million for the three month period ended December 31, 2000. This increase is
primarily due to increased infrastructure costs as the Company continues its
infrastructure build-out in order to lessen its reliance on its former parent
company, KPMG LLP, as well as an incremental $2.7 million of expenses for the
Australia and Southeast Asia consulting practices.

Interest (Income) Expense, Net. Interest (income) expense, net, decreased $5.6
million, or 100.5%, from $5.6 million of net interest expense to $0.03 million
of net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and 2001,
respectively. This decrease was due to a repayment of all outstanding borrowings
under our credit facility of $100 million at December 31, 2000, resulting from
the use of proceeds from our initial public offering, and improvements made in
our management of client billings and collections. This improvement is evidenced
by the reduction in our days sales outstanding from 76 days at December 31,
2000, to 56 days at December 31, 2001.

Loss on Redemption of Equity Interest in Affiliate and Equity in Losses of
Affiliate. On December 27, 2000, the Company redeemed its equity interest in
Qwest Cyber.Solutions ("QCS") for a nominal amount which resulted in a non-cash
charge to earnings of $63.3 million ($58.5 million net of tax) during the three
month period ended December 31, 2000.

Income Tax Expense. For the three month period ended December 31, 2001, the
Company earned income before taxes of $18.1 million and provided income taxes of
$11.5 million resulting in an effective tax rate for the quarter of 63.7%.

                                       13

<PAGE>

For the three months ended December 31, 2000, the Company incurred a loss before
taxes of $28.2 million and provided income taxes of $9.4 million. The tax rates
have been significantly impacted by the non-deductibility of losses incurred in
certain international operations and related to the loss on redemption of equity
interest in affiliate.

Preferred Stock Dividends. Series A Preferred Stock dividends totaling $15.8
million were recorded in the three months ended December 31, 2000. After
December 31, 2000, the Company was no longer required to pay dividends on our
Series A Preferred Stock because it was redeemed and converted in connection
with our initial public offering.

Net Income (Loss) Applicable to Common Stockholders. For the three months ended
December 31, 2001, the Company realized net income applicable to common
stockholders of $6.6 million, or $0.04 per share. For the three months ended
December 31, 2000, the Company realized a net loss applicable to common
stockholders of $53.4 million, or $0.70 per share. Improvement in net income
applicable to common stockholders is due to the December 2000 redemption of an
equity interest in affiliate (thereby eliminating further investment in this
start-up venture), the February 2001 conversion of Series A Preferred Stock to
common stock (thereby eliminating preferred stock dividends), partially offset
by the previously-mentioned $20.2 million charge recognized in the quarter ended
December 31, 2001. The per share amounts of the income (loss) were further
affected by the completion of our initial public offering on February 8, 2001,
which increased the number of average common shares outstanding by 82 million.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31,
2000

Revenues. Revenues decreased $179.9 million, or 13.0%, from $1,382.0 million in
the six months ended December 31, 2000, to $1,202.1 million in the six months
ended December 31, 2001.

This overall decrease is primarily attributable to a slower economy than that of
the same period last year. Public Services remained strong with growth of 16.3%,
however, this growth was more than offset by declines in Financial Services and
High Tech of 55.4% and 46.6%, respectively. These decreases are a result of
weakening market demand in these industries coupled with the postponement and
cancellation of client projects. Additionally, International revenue grew by
36.3%, which is largely due to the acquisitions of the Australia and Southeast
Asia consulting practices.

Gross Margin. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues was 24.7% for the six
months ended December 31, 2001. This reflects an increase from 23.9% for the six
months ended December 31, 2000. The increase in gross margin percentage was
primarily due to a reduction in the Company's expenses as a result of an
increased focus on expense control.

In dollar terms, gross margin decreased by $33.7 million, or 10.2%, from $330.6
million for the six months ended December 31, 2000, to $296.9 million for the
six months ended December 31, 2001. Included in gross margin for the quarter
ended December 31, 2001, was the $20.2 million charge primarily related to the
reduction in workforce. The decrease in gross margin was due to a decline in
revenues of $179.9 million described above, offset by:

     .    A net decrease in professional compensation of $83.7 million, or
          15.0%, excluding the previously-mentioned $17.7 million charge
          recorded in the six months ended December 31, 2001. This decrease was
          predominantly due to the reduction in workforce actions taken in the

                                       14

<PAGE>

          current quarter and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. In addition,
          incentive compensation accruals were also lower.

     .    A net decrease in other direct contract expense of $46.8 million, or
          13.5%, to $299.7 million, representing 24.9% of revenue, compared to
          $346.6 million, or 25.1% of revenue in the prior year's comparable
          period. The $46.8 million decrease is attributable to lower revenue
          levels combined with a decline in travel-related expenses resulting in
          part from the events of September 11th. Subcontractor usage as a
          percentage of revenue also declined as the Company continued its
          efforts to strategically utilize subcontractors to supplement its
          workforce.

     .    A net decrease in other costs of service of $33.5 million, or 22.9%,
          from $146.1 million to $112.6 million, primarily due to tighter
          controls on discretionary expenses including training and recruiting
          costs and reduced headcount, offset by a $2.5 million charge related
          to the impairment of third-party software licenses. Additionally, bad
          debt expense decreased $9.2 million due to greater emphasis on credit
          reviews and strengthened cash collections.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $234.7 million for the six months ended December
31, 2001. This reflects an increase of $5.9 million, or 2.6%, from $228.9
million, which is primarily due to increased infrastructure costs of $15.7
million as a result of the Company's infrastructure build out in order to lessen
its reliance on its former parent company, KPMG LLP, as well as, an incremental
$2.8 million of expenses for the Australia and Southeast Asia consulting
practices. This increase is partially offset by a decrease in amortization
expense of $6.9 million as a result of the Company electing to early-adopt SFAS
No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", and decreases in other expenses
reflecting tighter controls over discretionary spending.

Interest (Income) Expense, Net. Interest (income) expense, net, decreased $10.4
million, or 101.7%, from $10.2 million of net interest expense to $0.2 million
of net interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2000 and 2001,
respectively. This decrease was due to a repayment of all outstanding borrowings
under our credit facility of $100 million at December 31, 2000, resulting from
the use of proceeds from our initial public offering, and improvements made in
our management of client billings and collections. This improvement is evidenced
by the reduction in our days sales outstanding from 76 days at December 31, 2000
to 56 days at December 31, 2001.

Loss on Redemption of Equity Interest in Affiliate and Equity in Losses of
Affiliate. For the six months ended December 31, 2000 loss on redemption of
equity interest in affiliate and equity losses of affiliate of $76.0 million
related to our equity investment in Qwest Cyber.Solutions ("QCS"). On December
27, 2000, the Company redeemed its equity interest in QCS for a nominal amount
which resulted in a non-cash charge to earnings of $63.3 million ($58.5 million
net of tax) during the six month period ended December 31, 2000.

Income Tax Expense. For the six months ended December 31, 2001, the Company
earned income before taxes and cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle of $62.3 million and provided income taxes of $33.4 million, resulting
in an effective tax rate of 53.6%. This rate was impacted by the
non-deductibility of losses incurred by certain international operations. For
the six months ended December 31, 2000, the Company earned income before taxes
of $15.5 million and provided income taxes of $32.6 million, resulting in an
effective tax rate of 209.6%. This rate was significantly impacted by the
non-deductibility of the loss on redemption of equity interest in affiliate
coupled by non-deductible losses in certain international operations.

                                       15

<PAGE>

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle. The Company elected to
early-adopt SFAS No. 142 as of July 1, 2001. This standard eliminates goodwill
amortization upon adoption and requires an assessment for goodwill impairment
upon adoption and at least annually thereafter. As a result of adoption of this
standard, the Company did not amortize goodwill during the six months ended
December 31, 2001, and incurred a non-cash transitional impairment charge of
$80.0 million. This transitional impairment charge is a result of the change in
accounting principles to measuring impairments on a discounted versus an
undiscounted cash flow basis.

Preferred Stock Dividends. Series A Preferred Stock dividends totaling $31.7
million were recorded in the six months ended December 31, 2000. After December
31, 2000, the Company was no longer required to pay dividends on our Series A
Preferred Stock because it was redeemed and converted in connection with our
initial public offering.

Net Income (Loss) Applicable to Common Stockholders. For the six months ended
December 31, 2001, the Company realized a net loss applicable to common
stockholders of $51.0 million, or $0.32 per share. For the six months ended
December 31, 2000, the Company realized a net loss applicable to common
stockholders of $48.7 million, or $0.64 per share. Period over period, net
losses applicable to common stockholders increased primarily due to decreased
levels of revenue, partially offset by decreased levels of costs and expenses.
Losses per share were further affected by the completion of our initial public
offering on February 8, 2001, which increased the number of average common
shares outstanding by 82 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company has funded its operations through cash generated from
operations. While the Company expects this period of economic uncertainty may
continue to impact revenue growth for at least another quarter, we will continue
to actively manage client billings and collections and maintain tight controls
over discretionary expenses, and expect operations to continue to generate cash.
Additionally, the Company has borrowing arrangements available including a
revolving credit facility with no outstanding balance at December 31, 2001 (not
to exceed $100 million), a revolving line of credit facility with no outstanding
balance at December 31, 2001 (not to exceed $100 million), as well as a note
payable related to an accounts receivable financing facility with no outstanding
balance at December 31, 2001 (not to exceed $200 million). The revolving credit
facility and revolving line of credit facility expire on May 24, 2004 and May
20, 2002, respectively, while the accounts receivable purchase agreement permits
"sales" of accounts receivable through May 21, 2003, subject to annual renewal.
The accounts receivable purchase agreement is accounted for as a financing
transaction; accordingly, it is not an off-balance sheet financing arrangement.
The credit facilities described above include covenants relating to the
maintenance of certain financial ratios and restrictions on the Company's
ability to pay dividends.

         Under the transition services agreement with KPMG LLP, the Company
contracted to receive certain infrastructure support services from KPMG LLP
until the Company completes the build-out of its own infrastructure (for a
period not to exceed four years from the date of our IPO). If the Company
terminates any services prior to the end of the term for such services, the
Company may be obligated to pay to KPMG LLP any termination costs incurred as a
result of KPMG LLP having made investments in systems, personnel and other
assets that were used in provisioning of shared services. It is the intent of
the parties, that during the term of the agreement, the Company will work with
KPMG LLP to minimize any termination costs arising at the end of the term of the
agreement, and the Company will wind down its receipt of services from KPMG LLP
by developing its own infrastructure and support capabilities.

                                       16

<PAGE>

Based on information currently available, the Company anticipates paying KPMG
LLP approximately $40 to $60 million for the net book value of capital assets
(such as software licenses, computer equipment and leasehold improvements) that
will be transferred to our Company on or before the termination of the
agreement; upon transfer, such capital assets will continue to be used in our
business. Until the Company takes ownership of these capital assets, the
transition services agreement is an off-balance sheet financing arrangement. The
Company expects to take ownership of approximately $35 million of these capital
assets by the end of fiscal 2002.

         Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended
December 31, 2001 was $142.3 million, principally due to cash operating results
of $49.4 million and collections of accounts receivable of $83.5 million.

         Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended December
31, 2001 was $62.5 million principally due to $12.5 million in purchases of
property and equipment, $33.2 million paid for acquisitions, and $14.6 million
paid for other intangible assets.

         Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31,
2001 was $24.7 million, principally due to the purchase of 2.3 million treasury
shares for $27.5 million and repayment of notes payable of $5.9 million, offset
by proceeds of $12.7 million from the issuance of common stock primarily from
the Company's employee stock purchase plan.

         The Company believes that the cash provided from operations, borrowings
available under the various facilities described above and existing cash and
cash equivalents should be sufficient to meet working capital and ongoing
capital expenditure needs.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

         In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets". This statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and supersedes SFAS No. 121,
while retaining many of the requirements of such statement. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of the statement.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         This report contains forward-looking statements relating to our
operations that are based on our current expectations, estimates and
projections. Words such as "expects," "intends," "plans," "projects,"
"believes," "estimates," and similar expressions are used to identify these
forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult
to predict. Forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future
events that may not prove to be accurate. Actual outcomes and results may differ
materially from what is expressed or forecast in these forward-looking
statements. As a result, these statements speak only as of the date they were
made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.

         Our actual results may differ from the forward-looking statements for
many reasons, including:

    .    the business decisions of our clients regarding the use of our
         services;

                                       17

   . the timing of projects and their termination;
   . the availability of talented professionals to provide our services;
   . the pace of technological change;
   . the strength of our joint marketing relationships;
   . continuing limitations following our separation from KPMG LLP; and
   . the actions of our competitors.

In addition, these statements could be affected by general domestic and
international economic and political conditions including slowdowns in the
economy, uncertainty as to the future direction of the economy and vulnerability
of the economy to domestic or international incidents. (For a more detailed
discussion of certain of these factors, see Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q.)

PART I, ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

     We are exposed to a number of market risks in the ordinary course of
business. These risks, which include interest rate risk and foreign currency
exchange risk, arise in the normal course of business rather than from trading
activities. Our exposure to changes in interest rates arises primarily because
our indebtedness under our bank credit facilities carries variable interest
rates. Foreign currency exchange risk is not significant as foreign currency
transactions have not been significant and are not concentrated in a single
foreign currency.

     In connection with our borrowings and as a result of continual monitoring
of interest rates, we may in the future enter into interest rate swap agreements
for purposes of managing our borrowing costs.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

            We are from time to time the subject of lawsuits and other claims
and regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We do
not expect that any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will
have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
