MSX INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands unless otherwise stated)


1.       ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

         The accompanying financial statements represent the consolidated assets
         and liabilities and operations of MSX International, Inc. and its
         subsidiaries ("MSXI" or the "Company"). Effective August 31, 1997, the
         Company acquired certain service-providing operations of Ford Motor
         Company ("Ford") through the acquisition of Geometric Results
         Incorporated ("GRI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ford. The results of
         operations of GRI have been included in the results of the operations
         of the Company from September 1, 1997.

         The Company is principally engaged in the business of providing
         technical support services, primarily to automobile manufacturers and
         suppliers in the United States and Europe.

         The Company utilizes a fiscal year which ends on the last Sunday in
         December.

         In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
         condensed financial statements contain all adjustments which are normal
         and recurring in nature necessary to present fairly its financial
         position at June 28, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows
         for the fiscal quarter and fiscal six-month periods ended June 28, 1998
         and June 29, 1997. The operating results for the fiscal quarter and
         fiscal six-month periods ended June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire
         year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements
         included in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 which
         was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission
         on July 22, 1998.

2.       RESTRUCTURING ACTIONS:

         As of December 28, 1997, accrued restructuring costs totaled $6.1
         million. Approximately $1.7 million and $2.4 million was charged to
         MSXI's accrual in the fiscal quarter and fiscal six-month period ended
         June 28, 1998, primarily for operating lease payments on unused
         facilities. Remaining accrued restructuring costs totaled $3.7 million
         as of June 28, 1998, of which $2.5 million is expected to be paid in
         1998.

3.       REDEEMABLE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK:

         Dividends on preferred stock are payable in cash at a rate per annum
         equal to 12 percent of the stated value plus an amount equal to any
         accrued and unpaid dividends. As of June 28, 1998, the Company had not
         declared any dividends. Accordingly, no dividends have been paid or
         accrued. Dividends accumulated but not declared aggregated
         approximately $6.8 million as of June 28, 1998.

4.       DEBT:

         On January 22, 1998, the Company issued, in a private placement, $100
         million aggregate principal amount of 11 3/8% unsecured senior
         subordinated notes maturing January 15, 2008 (the "Notes"). Interest on
         the Notes is payable semiannually at 11 3/8% per annum commencing on
         July 15, 1998. The Notes may be redeemed subsequent to January 15, 2003
         at premiums which begin at 105.6875 percent and decline each year to
         face for redemptions taking place after January 15, 2006. In addition,
         at any time prior to January 15, 2001, the Company may redeem up to 35
         percent of the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes with
         the proceeds of one or more public equity offerings at a redemption
         price of 111.375 percent plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
         Also, upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the
         indenture (the "Indenture"), the Notes may be redeemed at the option of
         the note holders at a premium of one percent, plus accrued and unpaid
         interest, if any. The Notes contain covenants which, among others,
         limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness and restrict capital
         transactions, distributions and asset dispositions of certain
         subsidiaries.

         In connection with the Notes offering, each of the Company's domestic
         restricted subsidiaries, as defined in the Indenture (the "Guarantor
         Subsidiaries"), irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the Company's
         performance under the Notes as primary obligors.

         Concurrently with the private placement, the Company entered into a new
         credit facility with NBD Bank (the "New Credit Facility"), with a
         borrowing base of up to $100 million, as defined, to replace a prior
         NBD Credit Facility (the "Old Credit Facility"). Interest on the loans
         under the New Credit Facility is payable quarterly or, if earlier, at
         the end of each interest period and accrues at an annual rate equal to,
         at the option of the Company: (a) a floating rate, as defined or (b)
         the London Interbank Offered Rate plus an applicable margin, as
         defined.

         Each significant domestic subsidiary of the Company guarantees all
         obligations of the Company under the New Credit Facility. In addition,
         these obligations are secured by a pledge of the stock of such domestic
         subsidiaries and a first lien on substantially all assets of such
         domestic subsidiaries and a pledge of 65 percent of the stock of the
         significant foreign subsidiaries. The obligations of the Company under
         the New Credit Facility rank senior to all other indebtedness of the
         Company, including the Notes.

4.       DEBT: - (CONTINUED)

         The New Credit Facility contains certain reporting covenants and other
         customary affirmative covenants and various negative covenants
         including but not limited to certain limitations on mergers, sales of
         assets, acquisitions, liens, investments, indebtedness, contingent
         obligations, dividends, subsidiaries ability to agree to dividend
         restrictions, affiliate transactions and changes of business. The New
         Credit Facility also contains certain covenants with respect to
         employee benefit arrangements and environmental matters and certain
         financial covenants including but not limited to a ratio of total debt
         to EBITDA, a fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum net worth
         requirement, each as defined.

         On April 14, 1998, the Company syndicated the New Credit Facility to
         three additional commercial lenders and amended the New Credit Facility
         to add a $30 million term loan portion. Term loan borrowings are
         subject to satisfaction of the same borrowing base requirements and
         financial reporting and operating covenants as are other borrowings
         under the New Credit Facility. As of June 28, 1998, $51.4 million was
         outstanding under the New Credit Facility.


5.       BANK OVERDRAFTS:

         Bank overdrafts represent outstanding checks drawn on zero balance
         accounts that have not yet been presented to the Company's banks for
         funding. Such overdrafts are funded when the related checks are
         presented and are not subject to finance charges.


6.       COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

         On December 27, 1997, Cambridge Industries, Inc. filed a complaint
         against the Company in Michigan State Court. The complaint alleges that
         the Company, by retaining approximately $1.1 million of funds paid into
         a lock-box account maintained by the Company, has converted such funds.
         Cambridge Industries is seeking whatever relief the court deems just,
         including treble damages. The Company believes it has meritorious
         defenses and counterclaims to this action and intends to defend itself
         vigorously against all of the allegations contained in the complaint.
         The Company does not believe that the ultimate outcome of this
         litigation will have a material effect on its consolidated financial
         condition, results of operations or cash flows.

7.       INCOME TAXES:

         For the fiscal six-month period ended June 28, 1998 and June 29, 1997,
         the effective income tax rate was 61.5% and (25.6%), respectively. The
         change in the effective income tax rate was due to operations of the
         acquired GRI business and a change in the projected mix of foreign
         earnings which were offset in part by losses from other foreign
         businesses and a related valuation allowance. The effect of the change
         in the projected mix of foreign earnings was $187,000 on the 1998
         year-to-date expense.

8.       ADOPTION OF STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NO. 130 
         "REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME":

         Effective December 29, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards (FASB) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income."
         This statement requires that all items recognized under accounting
         standards as components of comprehensive earnings be reported in an
         annual financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence
         as other annual financial statements. This Statement also requires that
         an entity classify items of other comprehensive earnings by their
         nature in an annual financial statement. Annual financial statements
         for prior periods will be reclassified, as required. The Company's
         total comprehensive earnings were as follows:

9.       GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES:

         In connection with the Note Offering, the Guarantor Subsidiaries
         irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the Company's performance
         under the Notes as primary obligors. The Guarantor Subsidiaries are
         direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The
         remaining subsidiaries are direct or indirect subsidiaries of the
         Guarantor Subsidiaries.

         The following condensed consolidated financial data provides
         information regarding the financial position, results of operations and
         cash flows of the Guarantor Subsidiaries ("Condensed Consolidated
         Financial Data"). Separate financial statements of the Guarantor
         Subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined those
         would not be material to the holders of the notes.

         For purposes of the condensed consolidated financial data, the
         Guarantor Subsidiaries include substantially all domestic subsidiaries
         of the Company. The Guarantor Subsidiaries account for their
         investments in the non-guarantor subsidiaries, if any, on the equity
         method. The principal elimination entries are to eliminate the
         investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

MSXI's net sales for the quarter ended June 28, 1998 increased $171.3 million
(203.8%) from $84.0 million to $255.3 million, as compared to the fiscal quarter
ended June 29, 1997. For the fiscal six months ended June 28, 1998, net sales
increased $343.8 million (206.4%) from $166.5 million to $510.4 million, as
compared to the fiscal six months ended June 29, 1997. These increases resulted
principally from the GRI acquisition. In addition, net sales for the quarter and
fiscal year to date 1998 increased approximately 10% from the comparable prior
periods throughout the balance of the business.

Operating income for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 1998 increased $2.0
million (60%) from $3.3 million to $5.3 million, as compared to the fiscal
quarter ended June 29, 1997. As a percent of net sales operating income
decreased from 4.0% for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 1997 to 2.1% for the
fiscal quarter ended June 28, 1998. For the fiscal six months ended June 28,
1998 operating income increased $6.5 million (164.5%) from $3.9 million to $10.4
million as compared to the fiscal six months ended June 29, 1997. As a percent
of net sales operating income decreased from 2.4% for the fiscal six months
ended June 29, 1997 to 2.0% for the fiscal six months ended June 28, 1998. The
changes in operating income and operating income as a percent of net sales for
the 1998 periods as compared to the 1997 periods are primarily due to the
inclusion of the GRI businesses, which operate at a lower gross profit margin on
a higher volume of net sales.

Net income for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 1998 was $.3 million (.1% of
net sales) as compared to $.4 million (.5% of net sales) for the fiscal quarter
ended June 29, 1997. For the fiscal six months ended June 28, 1998 net income
was $.7 million (.1% of net sales) as compared to a net loss of $(1.1) million
(.6% of net sales) for the comparable prior period. For the fiscal quarter ended
June 28, 1998, income before taxes improved to $.9 million from $.5 million in
the prior year. However, net income was lower as a result of a change in
effective tax rates due to the projected mix of foreign earnings and
deductibility of foreign interest.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's principal capital requirements are for the acquisition of
businesses and capital expenditures. These requirements have been met through a
combination of bank debt, issuance of securities and cash from operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - (CONTINUED)

During the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 1998 net cash provided from operating
activities was $10.3 million which resulted primarily from improved accounts
receivable collections.

The Company's total indebtedness as of June 28, 1998 consists of Notes,
borrowings under the New Credit Facility, and borrowings under the Ford
Facility. On April 14, 1998, the Company amended and restated the New Credit
Facility to add a $30 million term loan portion. On the same date, the Company
borrowed the full amount available under the term loan and used the funds to
reduce outstanding bank balances under the revolving loan portion of the New
Credit Facility. The amount is classified as long-term debt as the Company has
both the ability and intent to refinance such amount under the New Credit
Facility.

OTHER MATTERS

The Company provides staffing procurement services to Ford pursuant to the Ford
Master Vendor Agreement. In exchange for such services, Ford pays certain
agreed-upon compensation to the Company. In the United States, this compensation
includes payment for personnel supplied to Ford, together with certain
agreed-upon fees. The fees were scheduled to be reduced by 20% on July 1, 1998
from fees in effect since September 1, 1997. On May 4, 1998, an advisory board
comprised of executives from both the Company and Ford agreed to suspend
implementation of this fee reduction.

During the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 1998, one of the Company's three
largest customers, General Motors ("GM"), experienced a labor dispute which
resulted in a significant disruption to GM's North American automotive
production ("GM Strike"). GM accounted for approximately 7% of the Company's
total net sales during the fiscal quarter, reflecting a slight increase in net
sales over the prior quarter. The GM Strike, which ended July 28, 1998, did not
significantly impact operating results in the fiscal quarter. Although the media
has reported on possible cost reduction programs at General Motors resulting
from the GM Strike, the Company is not aware of any specific actions that would
have a material affect on its financial condition, results of operations, or its
cash flow in subsequent quarters.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 22, 1998, the Company initiated an offer to exchange 11-3/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933
for any and all outstanding Notes. The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 P.M.
(EDT) on August 20, 1998 unless extended. Prior to beginning the exchange offer,
the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

On August 4, 1998, the Company acquired Gold Arrow Contract Services, Ltd.
("Gold Arrow"), a U.K. technical and information technology staffing services
company with sales of approximately $20 million.. Initial funding for the
transaction was provided by borrowings under the New Credit Facility.

INFLATION

Although the Company cannot anticipate future inflation, it does not believe
that inflation has had, or is likely in the forseeable future, to have a
material impact on its results of operations. While the Company's contracts
typically do not include automatic adjustments for inflation, the Ford Master
Vendor Agreement does provide for automatic adjustments for inflation for
services provided under the Master Vendor Program.

SEASONALITY

The Company's quarterly operating results are affected primarily by the number
of billing days in the quarter and the seasonality of its customers' businesses.
Demand for services of the Company have historically been lower during the
year-end holidays.

PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.      On December 27, 1997, Cambridge Industries, Inc. filed a 
             complaint against the Company in Michigan State Court. The
             complaint alleges that the Company, by retaining approximately
             $1.1 million of funds paid into a lock-box account maintained by
             the Company, has converted such funds. Cambridge Industries is
             seeking whatever relief the court deems just, including treble
             damages. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses and
             counterclaims to this action and intends to defend itself
             vigorously against all of the allegations contained in the
             complaint. The Company does not believe that the ultimate
             outcome of this litigation will have a material effect on its
             consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash
             flows.
