NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     Principles of consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Information Resources, Inc. and all wholly or
majority owned subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively "the Company").
Minority interests reflect the non-Company owned stockholder interests in
certain international operations. The equity method of accounting is used for
investments in which the Company has a 20% to 50% ownership interest because it
exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

     Interim financial statements: The interim financial statements are
unaudited, but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair statement of
financial position and results of operations for the period presented. The
preparation of interim financial statements necessarily relies on estimates,
requiring the use of caution in estimating results for the full year based on
interim results of operations.

     Income (loss) per common and common equivalent share: Net income (loss) per
share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during each period. Net income (loss) per common and common
equivalent share-diluted is based upon the weighted average number of shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents, entirely comprised of stock options,
outstanding during each period. For the first half of 2003 and 2002, stock
options, aggregating 8,531,768 shares and 9,065,710 shares, respectively, were
excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding calculation because they
were anti-dilutive. For the second quarter of 2003 and 2002, stock options
aggregating 8,831,489 and 2,745,850 shares were excluded from the weighted
average shares outstanding calculation because they were anti-dilutive.

     Stock-Based Compensation: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
- Transition and Disclosure," encourages, but does not require, companies to
record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair
value. The Company has chosen to account for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations.
Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess,
if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the
grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company
grants options at the quoted market price of the stock and therefore recognizes
no compensation expense.

</TABLE>


     The above table is based upon the valuation of option grants using the
Black-Scholes pricing model for traded options with assumed risk-free interest
rates of 2.74% and 3.82% for 2003 and 2002, respectively; stock price volatility
factor of 86.1% for 2003 and 2002; and an expected life of the options of five
years. Using the foregoing assumptions, the calculated weighted-average fair
value of options granted in 2003 and 2002 was $.87 and $5.87, respectively.
Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options, and because changes in the input
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's
opinion, the model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the
fair value of its employee stock options.

     Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Under the
new rules, goodwill, the excess of the carrying value over the net book value of
investments accounted for using the equity method and intangible assets deemed
to have indefinite lives, are no longer amortized but are subject to annual
impairment tests. Other intangible assets continue to be amortized over their
useful lives.

     The Company performed a goodwill impairment test as required by Statement
No. 142 to determine the implied fair value of the goodwill recorded on its
books as of January 1, 2002. As the goodwill related entirely to previous
international transactions, the fair value was estimated by discounting the
estimated future cash flows of the international reporting unit. Based on this
analysis, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $7.1 million.
In accordance with Statement No. 142, the charge was reflected as the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle in the Statement of Operations in the
first quarter of 2002.

     In July 2002, the Company entered into a $40.0 million credit facility
which expires in July 2005. The facility has floating rate interest options that
range between 2.25% and 3.00% over LIBOR and commitment fees of up to 0.50%
payable on the unused portion. Under the credit facility, the maximum commitment
of funds available for borrowings is limited by a defined borrowing base formula
related to eligible accounts receivable, which fluctuates during the quarter.
Borrowings under the facility are secured by the Company's assets. As of June
30, 2003, the Company had $17.2 million of borrowing availability, net of
letters of credit, under the revolving credit facility.

     The financial covenants in the credit agreement, as well as in the lease
agreement for the Company's Chicago headquarters, require the Company to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth and to meet certain cash flow coverage and
leverage ratios. The agreements also limit the Company's ability to declare
dividends or make distributions to holders of capital stock, or redeem or
otherwise acquire shares of capital stock of the Company. The bank credit
agreement contains covenants which restrict the Company's ability to incur
additional indebtedness. As of June 30, 2003, the Company was in compliance with
all covenants.

NOTE 7 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The Company's business information services are conducted almost
exclusively in the United States and Europe. The Company's operations in other
markets account for less than 1% of consolidated revenues. The Company considers
revenues and the aggregation of operating profit (loss), equity earnings
(losses) and minority interests (collectively, "Operating Results") on a
geographic basis to be the most meaningful measure of the operating performance
of each respective geographic segment and of the Company as a whole.

     2002 Workforce Reduction: In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company
eliminated approximately 5% of its total workforce in the United States and
Europe through layoffs and the elimination of open positions. Approximately 140
full-time employees were terminated in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the
beginning of 2003. A charge of $7.8 million was recorded in the fourth quarter
of 2002 for severance and other costs related to the layoffs when communication
of such benefits had been made to affected employees.

     Project Delta: In the third quarter of 1999, the Company initiated a
comprehensive program named Project Delta. The objective of Project Delta was to
improve productivity and operating efficiencies to reduce the Company's ongoing
cost structure in its U.S. operations. The work outlined as part of Project
Delta was completed during the third quarter of 2001.

     Transition of German Production to U.S. Facility: The Company made the
decision in the fourth quarter of 1999 to transfer production services for
Information Resources GfK GmbH from an external vendor in Germany to the
Company's U.S. headquarters facility in order to enhance its InfoScan offering
in Germany and to reduce future production costs. The transition of German
production to the U.S. facility began in the first quarter of 2000 and was
completed in the first quarter of 2002. First quarter 2002 charges of $1.1
million consisted primarily of parallel processing and temporary workforce
expenses.


     Information Technology Assessment: During the fourth quarter of 2001, the
Company began a review of its information technology operations to assess
potential restructuring costs and benefits. The review included initial
assessments of database design, transition planning and cost and savings
estimates and was completed in the second quarter of 2002. This project resulted
in cost savings, process efficiencies and a plan for continuous improvement of
the technology infrastructure. Charges of $6.3 million in the first half of 2002
related primarily to consulting fees paid to a third party.


     The following tables reflect special charges incurred and cash payments
made during the first half of 2003 and 2002 (in thousands):

NOTE 9 - OTHER EVENTS

     On June 29, 2003 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
("Merger Agreement") with Gingko Corporation and Gingko Acquisition Corp.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 14, 2003, Gingko Acquisition Corp.
commenced a tender offer for all of the Company's outstanding common shares. The
transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and other customary
conditions, is expected to close before the end of the year.

NOTE 10 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an
interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("Interpretation"). The
Interpretation requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise
absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the
entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership,
contractual or other financial interest in the entity. Currently, entities are
generally consolidated by an enterprise when it has a controlling financial
interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity.

     During 2000, the Company and Mosaic Group, Inc. formed a joint venture
company, Mosaic InfoForce, L.P. ("MIF"), in which the Company has a 49%
ownership interest and Mosaic Group, Inc., through wholly-owned subsidiaries,
owns the remainder. The Company's domestic causal and custom audit data
collection and merchandising services are provided by MIF pursuant to an
agreement that expires in 2010. The Company has evaluated its investment in MIF
and determined that it will begin consolidating MIF as of July 1, 2003. The
equity interest of MIF not owned by the Company will be reported as minority
interest beginning July 1, 2003.

     MIF was financed with a $1.9 million initial equity contribution made by
the Company and an additional $2.1 million equity contribution made by Mosaic
Group, Inc., through wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company capitalized $7.4
million in connection with the formation of MIF, which is currently being
accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2003, the
Company has guaranteed $.9 million of MIF equipment capital leases that the
Company would be obligated to pay in the event MIF cannot make the payments
required under the leases. The capital leases have varying expiration dates
through 2004.

                  INFORMATION RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following narrative discusses the results of operations, liquidity and
capital resources for the Company on a consolidated basis. This section should
be read in conjunction with IRI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2002. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" contained therein.

OVERVIEW

     The Company's market is very competitive and as a result of certain trends
and general economic conditions, the industry is facing a number of challenges.
Specifically, increasing customer consolidation among consumer packaged goods
("CPG") manufacturers has caused the overall market for retail tracking services
to contract. In addition, retail tracking services offered by the Company and
its competitors, particularly in the U.S., now cover less of the total
marketplace than in prior years as a result of the decision by Wal-Mart in 2001
to discontinue providing its point-of-sale data to third party data suppliers,
including the Company and ACNielsen, and the emergence and growth of new
channels of trade that do not release point-of-sale data for inclusion in retail
tracking services. Further, general global economic conditions have resulted in
pricing pressure and reductions in overall customer spending on retail tracking
services. In addition, the Company has filed an antitrust lawsuit against The
Dun & Bradstreet Corp., A.C. Nielsen Co. (now owned by VNU, N.V.) and IMS
International, Inc. in which the Company alleges that it was the target of
numerous anticompetitive practices by the defendants aimed at excluding the
Company from the markets for retail tracking services. The Company believes that
such practices continue to impair its ability to compete in the markets and to
respond to the conditions confronting the industry. The Company expects these
conditions to continue to impact the consumer packaged goods industry and the
demand for retail tracking services for the foreseeable future.


     The Company's first half 2003 U.S. retail tracking revenues, which comprise
73% of the U.S. business, declined by 3% compared to the first half of 2002. The
decline is the result of the financial lag of customer losses in 2002 that were
not fully offset by revenues generated from new customers and increased spending
by existing customers during the period.

     The U.S. panel and analytics business is growing through increased spending
by existing customers, the addition of new customers and the introduction of new
products and services. First half 2003 panel and analytics revenues increased 8%
compared to the prior year. The Company anticipates continued growth in these
areas of its business as CPG companies require increasingly more and advanced
consumer intelligence and analysis.

     The International operating loss was lower for the first half of 2003
compared to the prior year and continues to be driven primarily by the Company's
German operation. 2003 losses from the German operation increased over the prior
year as a result of difficulties encountered in connection with the Company's
transition to a new service in that country. The Company believes that most of
the operational difficulties in Germany have been addressed and that results
will improve in the second half of 2003. International operating results for the
first half of 2003, excluding Germany, improved by approximately $2.2 million
over the prior year largely due to expense reductions. Absent the losses
attributable to the German business, the International operation would have
reflected a profit in the first half of 2003.

     On June 29, 2003 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
("Merger Agreement") with Gingko Corporation and Gingko Acquisition Corp.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 14, 2003, Gingko Acquisition Corp.
commenced a tender offer for all of the Company's outstanding common shares. The
transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and other customary
conditions, is expected to close before the end of the year.

                  INFORMATION RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
            OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONT'D.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company's consolidated net loss was $0.2 million or $.01 per diluted
share for the second quarter of 2003 compared to consolidated net income of $0.3
million or $.01 per diluted share for the corresponding 2002 quarter. The
Company's consolidated net income was $0.1 million for the six months ended June
30, 2003 compared to a consolidated net loss of $9.1 million or $.31 per diluted
share for the corresponding 2002 period. 2003 results improved primarily due to
the decline in special charges from the prior year. Additionally, 2002 results
included a charge of $7.1 million relating to the cumulative effect of an
accounting change for goodwill.

Second Quarter Versus Prior Year

     Consolidated revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $142.4
million, an increase of 2% over the corresponding quarter in 2002. U.S. revenues
were $101.7 million, a decrease of 3% compared to the prior year. Although U.S.
retail tracking revenues declined by 4% from the prior year, U.S. panel and
analytics revenues increased by 6%. International revenues increased 16% to
$40.7 million over the prior year, however, International revenues decreased 2%
on a local currency basis.

     Consolidated costs of information services sold increased 2% to $128.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $125.6 million for
the second quarter of 2002. This increase is primarily the result of foreign
currency exchange effects. While the Company incurred additional costs in
certain areas including investments in new business initiatives, these costs
were generally offset by savings in a number of other areas as a result of the
Company's ongoing cost saving efforts.

     Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses were $12.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

     Earnings before interest and other and taxes reflected a loss of $0.2
million for the second quarter of 2003 compared to income of $0.5 million in the
prior year. 2003 operating results declined primarily due to an increase in
corporate professional fee expenses relating to the pending merger transaction
and higher special charges in 2003. These expense increases were partially
offset by an improvement in International results.

     Special charges are discussed below. Interest and other was a net expense
of $0.1 million for the second quarter of 2003 compared to interest and other
income of $0.2 million in 2002. The increase in expense resulted from higher
bank charges and lower foreign exchange gains in 2003 as compared to the prior
year.

First Half Versus Prior Year

     Consolidated revenues were $280.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
2003, an increase of 3% over the corresponding period of 2002. U.S. revenues
decreased 1% to $201.8 million for the first half of 2003 compared to the prior
year. Although U.S. retail tracking revenues declined by 3% compared to the
first half of 2002, U.S. panel and analytics revenues increased by 8% compared
to the prior year. International revenues increased 15% to $78.2 million over
the first half of 2002, however, International revenues decreased 3% on a local
currency basis.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
            OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONT'D.

     Consolidated costs of information services sold increased 4% to $254.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to costs of $246.1
million for the first half of 2002. This increase is primarily the result of
foreign currency exchange effects. While the Company incurred additional costs
in certain areas including investments in new business initiatives, these costs
were generally offset by savings in a number of other areas as a result of the
Company's ongoing cost saving efforts.

     Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 3% to
$22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $23.0 million
for the first half of 2002. This decline is attributable to lower compensation
that was partially offset by foreign currency exchange effects and professional
fees incurred in connection with the pending merger transaction.

     For the first half of 2003, the Company's earnings before interest and
other and taxes was $0.5 million compared to a loss of $2.7 million in the prior
year. This increase was the result of improved International results and lower
special charges that were partially offset by a decline in the U.S.
contribution.

     Special charges are discussed below. Interest and other expenses were $0.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $0.2 million in 2002.
The increase is due primarily to higher bank charges in 2003 as compared to the
prior year.

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the first quarter of 2002. The Company
performed a goodwill impairment test as required by Statement No. 142 to
determine the implied fair value of the goodwill recorded on its books as of
January 1, 2002. As the goodwill related entirely to previous international
transactions, the fair value was estimated by discounting the estimated future
cash flows of the international reporting unit. Based on this analysis, the
Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $7.1 million. In accordance
with Statement No. 142, the charge was reflected as the cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principle in the Statement of Operations in the first
quarter of 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's current cash resources include its $11.3 million consolidated
cash balance and $17.2 million available, net of letters of credit, under the
Company's bank revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2003. The Company
anticipates that it will have sufficient funds from these sources and internally
generated funds from its U.S. operations to satisfy its cash needs for the
foreseeable future. The Company's bank credit agreement, which contains
covenants restricting the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness,
expires in July 2005. The credit facility includes financial and non-financial
covenants discussed below. The Company expects to be in compliance with all of
its covenants during the remainder of 2003, however, if the Company violates a
covenant that the bank group is unwilling to amend or waive, and the bank group
declares a default under the credit agreement, liquidity could be negatively
impacted.

Financings

     In July 2002, the Company entered into a $40.0 million credit facility
which expires in July 2005. The facility has floating rate interest options that
range between 2.25% and 3.00% over LIBOR and commitment fees of up to 0.50%
payable on the unused portion. Under the credit facility, the maximum commitment
of funds available for borrowings is limited by a defined borrowing base formula
related to eligible accounts receivable, which fluctuates during the quarter.
Borrowings under the facility are secured by the Company's assets.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
            OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONT'D.

     The financial covenants in the credit agreement, as well as in the lease
agreement for the Company's Chicago headquarters, require the Company to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth and to meet certain cash flow coverage and
leverage ratios. The agreements also limit the Company's ability to declare
dividends or make distributions to holders of capital stock, or redeem or
otherwise acquire shares of capital stock of the Company. As of June 30, 2003,
the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

Cash Flow

     Consolidated net cash provided by operating activities was $79.7 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $55.5 million for the same
period in 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to improved earnings in
2003 and to changes in accounts receivable resulting from the timing of
collections.

     Consolidated cash flow used by net investing activities was $78.8 million
in 2003 compared to $77.4 million for the same period in 2002. Investing
activity in 2003 reflects higher expenditures for data procurement, primarily
due to the impact of foreign currency, that were offset by lower capital
expenditures.

     Consolidated cash flow provided by net financing activities was $0.8
million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $16.8 million for the
same period in 2002. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company's
net bank borrowings aggregated $2.5 million compared to $17.0 million during the
first half of 2002.

Other Deferred Costs and Capital Expenditures

     Consolidated deferred data procurement expenditures were $73.6 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2003 and $69.0 million for the same period in
2002. These expenditures are amortized over a period of 28 months, which is the
average number of months of back-data provided to clients, and include payments
to retailers for point-of-sale data and costs related to collecting, reviewing
and verifying other data (i.e. causal factors) which are an essential part of
the Company's database. Such expenditures for the Company's U.S. business were
$41.4 million and $40.9 million, while amortization expense was $40.7 million
and $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Expenditures for the Company's International business were $32.2 million and
$28.1 million, while amortization expense was $31.9 million and $25.7 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. International
data expenditures for the first half of 2003 were higher than the prior year due
to the impact of foreign currency.

     Consolidated capital expenditures were $4.2 million and $7.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Capital expenditures
for the Company's U.S. business were $2.3 million and $5.3 million, while
depreciation expense was $10.3 million and $11.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The decrease in U.S. capital
expenditures is primarily due to the timing of projects. The Company's
International capital expenditures were $1.9 million and $2.1 million, while
depreciation expense was $2.6 million and $2.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

     Consolidated capitalized software development costs, primarily in the U.S.,
were $1.0 million for the first half of 2003 and 2002.

Impact of Inflation

     Inflation has slowed in recent years, however the Company's results of
operations are impacted by rising prices given the labor intensive nature of the
business. The Company passes increased costs on to customers with multi-year
contracts by adjusting sales prices through consumer price index increases to
the extent provided for in such contracts.

SPECIAL CHARGES

     Since 1999, the Company has undertaken major initiatives as described below
resulting in significant or incremental expenditures that have been classified
as special charges in the Statement of Operations.

     2003 Workforce Reduction: In the second quarter of 2003, the Company
eliminated approximately 110 full-time employees or approximately 5% of its
total workforce in the United States. The total charge for severance and other
costs approximates $2.4 million, of which $2.3 million was recorded in the
second quarter of 2003, and the remainder will be recorded in third quarter of
2003. The Company expects to realize cost savings of approximately $9.0 million
per year as a result of the workforce reduction.

     2002 Workforce Reduction: In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company
eliminated approximately 5% of its total workforce in the United States and
Europe through layoffs and the elimination of open positions. Approximately 140
full-time employees were terminated in the fourth quarter of 2002 and the
beginning of 2003. A charge of $7.8 million was recorded in the fourth quarter
of 2002 for severance and other costs related to the layoffs when communication
of such benefits had been made to affected employees. The Company expects to
realize cost savings of approximately $15.0 million per year as a result of the
workforce reduction.

     Project Delta: In the third quarter of 1999, the Company initiated a
comprehensive program named Project Delta. The objective of Project Delta was to
improve productivity and operating efficiencies to reduce the Company's ongoing
cost structure in its U.S. operations. The work outlined as part of Project
Delta was completed during the third quarter of 2001.

     Transition of German Production to U.S. Facility: The Company made the
decision in the fourth quarter of 1999 to transfer production services for
Information Resources GfK GmbH from an external vendor in Germany to the
Company's U.S. headquarters facility in order to enhance its InfoScan offering
in Germany and to reduce future production costs. The transition of German
production to the U.S. facility began in the first quarter of 2000 and was
completed in the first quarter of 2002. First quarter 2002 charges of $1.1
million consisted primarily of parallel processing and temporary workforce
expenses.

     Information Technology Assessment: During the fourth quarter of 2001, the
Company began a review of its information technology operations to assess
potential restructuring costs and benefits. The review included initial
assessments of database design, transition planning and cost and savings
estimates and was completed in the second quarter of 2002. This project resulted
in cost savings, process efficiencies and a plan for continuous improvement of
the technology infrastructure. Charges of $6.3 million in the first half of 2002
related primarily to consulting fees paid to a third party.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
            OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONT'D.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an
interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51" ("Interpretation"). The
Interpretation requires the consolidation of entities in which an enterprise
absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of the
entity's expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership,
contractual or other financial interest in the entity. Currently, entities are
generally consolidated by an enterprise when it has a controlling financial
interest through ownership of a majority voting interest in the entity.

     During 2000, the Company and Mosaic Group, Inc. formed a joint venture
company, Mosaic InfoForce, L.P. ("MIF"), in which the Company has a 49%
ownership interest and Mosaic Group, Inc., through wholly-owned subsidiaries,
owns the remainder. The Company's domestic causal and custom audit data
collection and merchandising services are provided by MIF pursuant to an
agreement that expires in 2010. The Company has evaluated its investment in MIF
and determined that it will begin consolidating MIF as of July 1, 2003. The
equity interest of MIF not owned by the Company will be reported as minority
interest beginning July 1, 2003.

     MIF was financed with a $1.9 million initial equity contribution made by
the Company and an additional $2.1 million equity contribution made by Mosaic
Group, Inc., through wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company capitalized $7.4
million in connection with the formation of MIF, which is currently being
accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2003, the
Company has guaranteed $.9 million of MIF equipment capital leases that the
Company would be obligated to pay in the event MIF cannot make the payments
required under the leases. The capital leases have varying expiration dates
through 2004.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     As of June 30, 2003, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and
with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based
on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2003. There have been no
significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to June 30, 2003.
