              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    ($000'S, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the financial
statements. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30,
2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2003. The balance sheet at December 31, 2002, has been
derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include
all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements. For additional information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S.
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

Basic income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is
computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially
dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive
securities include incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock
options, warrants and conversion of notes payable. Potentially dilutive
securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Potentially dilutive securities excluded because of their anti-dilutive effect
are approximately 6.7 million shares and 6.5 million shares at September 30,
2003 and September 30, 2002, respectively.

Pro forma disclosures required under SFAS 148 are presented below. The pro forma
compensation cost may not be representative of that expected in future years.

</TABLE>

Compensation cost for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was
calculated in accordance with the binomial model, using the following weighted
average assumptions: (i) expected volatility of 123%; (ii) expected dividend
yield of 0%; (iii) expected option term of 10 years; (iv) risk-free rates of
return of 1.74% and (v) expected forfeiture rates of 40% for both periods.

2.   LIQUIDITY AND CREDIT FACILITY

On December 16, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with BFI Business
Finance ("BFI"), a Santa Clara, California-based business-credit company, for a
two-year working capital line of credit for $750, to replace our existing credit
facility with Comerica Bank. Under the BFI agreement, available borrowings are
up to 85% of accounts receivable, after reduction for ineligible accounts. The
interest rate on outstanding balances is at prime plus 4% per annum, plus a
monthly administrative fee of 0.50% per month calculated on the average daily
balance outstanding. The minimum monthly interest and administrative fee charged
to the Company was at least $1 per month for the first six months, escalating to
$2 per month for the remaining term of the agreement.

The Company relies primarily on the timeliness and amount of accounts receivable
collections to fund cash disbursements. As a result of prior losses and prior
negative cash flows, the Company experienced a significant decline in available
liquidity in 2001 and 2002. The Company improved its liquidity by securing
private placement financing in July 2001, by generating positive cash flow from
operations, by reaching settlement agreements with all of its legacy creditors,
and in December 2002 by replacing its credit facility with Comerica Bank, which
was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2002, with the BFI facility.

Under present circumstances, the Company believes that its estimated results
from operations when combined with the proceeds from the BFI credit facility
will be adequate to fund its obligations for the next 12 months.

On May 6, 2003, the Company retained the services of an investment-banking firm
to help the Company explore its strategic alternatives. The Company paid an
initial fee of $20 at the signing of the agreement and commenced making monthly
payments of $5 starting on June 15, 2003 and which, under the agreement, were
scheduled to continue through October 15, 2003. Additionally the Company issued
warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock, exercisable for a period of
five years at an exercise price of $0.035 per share, which was the closing price
of the Company's common stock on May 6, 2003. These warrants were valued at $4
under the provisions of APB No. 14 and EITF 00-27 and were expensed in the
second quarter of 2003. The services of the investment-banking firm were
terminated, effective August 21, 2003. The Company recorded an expense of $25 in
the third quarter of 2003 for the remaining payments due pursuant to the
contract and the remaining amortization relating to the initial engagement fee
that was being amortized over the life of the agreement. The Company will
continue to explore its tactical and strategic alternatives.

3.   ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The majority of the Company's accounts receivables are due from Global 2000,
mid-market and public sector clients. Credit is extended based on an evaluation
of the customers' financial condition and, generally, collateral is not
required. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated
losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.
Management regularly evaluates the allowance for doubtful accounts. The
estimated losses are based on the aging of our receivable balances, a review of
significant past due accounts, and our historical write-off experience, net of
recoveries. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate,
resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional
allowances would be required.

4.   ACCRUED SALARIES AND OTHER EXPENSES

Accrued salaries and other expenses consist of the following:

                                                 September 30,   December 31

5.   CORPORATE LEGACY LIABILITIES

Corporate legacy liabilities consist of obligations that were incurred in years
prior to 2001. During 2001 the Company entered into settlement agreements or
issued notes in satisfaction of certain of these payables pursuant to a
restructuring plan offered to substantially all of its creditors. The following
chart represents what is left from those settlement agreements.

Corporate legacy liabilities consist of the following:

</TABLE>


A promissory note was issued in conjunction with the Company's restructuring of
the legacy liabilities. The note is an unsecured long-term note that accrues
interest at 6.5% per annum. Principal and interest are due on January 3, 2005.
In the chart above, this note is considered a long-term liability.

</TABLE>


On July 26, 2001, the Company completed a private placement through the issuance
of approximately $1,100 of Series 1 Convertible Subordinated Promissory Notes
(the "Notes") with warrants to a group of investors, including members of
BrightStar's senior management. The Notes are secured on a junior basis by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and its operating subsidiaries,
and are convertible into common stock, at the option of the investors, at a
fixed price of $0.23 per share, subject to anti-dilution provisions. The Notes
are entitled to simple interest calculated at a rate per annum equal to 8%. The
Company had the option to pay interest for the first year from the date of the
Notes (subsequently extended for another year during the second quarter of 2002)
by issuing additional Notes (the "PIK Notes") and warrants with the same terms
as above. The Company elected to pay the interest due on the Notes from
inception through June 30, 2003 by issuing PIK Notes and warrants. In October
2003, the Company paid in cash the quarterly interest due on the Notes and PIK
Notes for the quarter ended September 30, 2003.

The Notes and the PIK Notes were originally due and payable on July 1, 2004.
However, the Notes and PIK Notes were amended effective October 24, 2003 to
extend their due date to December 31, 2005 when holders representing more than
75% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and PIK Notes agreed to the
extension. As consideration for this amendment the Company agreed to a partial
pay down schedule for the PIK Notes, commencing January 2004. The Company agreed
to pay in cash each quarter an amount equal to 50% of the interest then due on
the Notes and PIK Notes and the amounts so paid will be applied sequentially to
retire the PIK Notes in the order issued until December 31, 2005.

7.   INCOME TAXES

As a result of historical losses, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance
to offset all of its net deferred tax assets recorded at September 30, 2003. The
valuation allowance, which was approximately $10,500 as of December 31, 2002,
relates to deferred tax assets established for net operating loss carryforwards
generated through June 30, 2003 and other temporary differences. The Company
does not expect to recognize tax benefits on prior or future losses or other
temporary differences until such time that it is more likely than not that tax
benefits will be realized by the Company. At December 31, 2002, the Company had
a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $13,800 for federal income
tax purposes, which will expire in years 2018 through 2022.

8.   CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets". Thus, effective
January 1, 2002, the Company ceased amortizing goodwill recorded in past
business combinations. The implementation of the goodwill impairment test under
SFAS No. 142 requires a two-step approach, which is performed at the reporting
unit level, as defined in SFAS No. 142. Step one identifies potential
impairments by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying
amount. Step two, which is only performed if there is a potential impairment,
compares the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill to its implied
value, as defined in SFAS No. 142. If the carrying amount of the reporting
unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment
loss is recognized for an amount equal to that excess.

The Company completed the first step of the transitional impairment test
required by SFAS No. 142 during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The Company
consists of a single reporting unit. Therefore, this step required the Company
to assess the fair value of the Company and compare that value to its
shareholders' equity. In determining fair value, the Company considered the
guidance in SFAS No. 142, including the Company's market capitalization, control
premiums, discounted cash flows and other indicators of fair value. Based on
this analysis, goodwill recorded as of January 1, 2002 in the amount of $11,648
was impaired. The Company then completed step two, impairment test, pursuant to
SFAS No. 142, under which we compared the value of our goodwill based on the
Company's stock price as of December 31, 2001 with the value of the goodwill. As
a result of the impairment test, a goodwill impairment loss of $9,900 was
recognized in the fourth quarter of 2002, which is when the test was completed,
and recorded as of the first quarter of 2002 as a change in accounting
principle.

During 2002, as part of the Company's implementation of SFAS No. 142, the
Company also wrote off $45 related to an intangible asset. The reduction was
also included in the change in accounting principle amount.

The net effect of these restatements was a $9,945 decrease in the net income for
the quarter ended March 31, 2002.

The Company will perform its annual impairment test during the 4th quarter based
on an annual test date of October 1, 2003 as required by SFAS No. 142. Based on
initial tests, the company does not anticipate recording any impairment loss for
2003.

9.   STOCK OPTION REPRICING

On February 12, 2002 the compensation committee of the board of directors voted
to take actions that resulted in the repricing of approximately 835,000 existing
options to active participants under the Company's long-term incentive plans to
a new exercise price of $0.05 per share, which was determined to be the fair
market value by the board of directors based upon the 20-day average closing
price. The market closing price on February 12, 2002 was $0.07. Since the market
closing price was greater than the exercise price of the newly granted options,
the difference of $0.02 per share, approximately $17, was recorded as unearned
compensation and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the
repriced options. These repriced stock options are accounted for as variable
awards, and accordingly, the Company will record any increase of the fair market
value of the underlying stock over the market closing price of $0.07 on the day
of the repricing as compensation expense in the appropriate quarter. Since the
closing price of the company's stock was at $0.10 per share on September 30,
2003, the company recorded a compensation expense of $17 in the third quarter of
2003.

11.  LITIGATION

The Company is from time to time involved in litigation incidental to its
business. The Company believes that the results of such litigation will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

12.  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

For the third quarter of 2003, the Company had a single customer that accounted
for approximately 60% of total revenue. For the first nine months of 2003, this
customer accounted for approximately 60% of total revenue. This customer also
accounted for approximately 55% of the Company's total outstanding accounts
receivable balance as of September 30, 2003.




For the third quarter of 2002, the Company had four unrelated customers that
accounted for approximately 35%, 28%, 11% and 10% of total revenue,
respectively. Also, for the first nine months of 2002, these four customers
accounted for approximately 26%, 27%, 9% and 10% of total revenue, respectively.
These four customers also accounted for approximately 19%, 26%, 7% and 12%,
respectively, of the Company's total outstanding accounts receivable balance as
of September 30, 2002.



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

BrightStar Information Technology Group, Inc. ("BrightStar" or "the Company")
provides information technology ("IT") services for its customers. We help
organizations maximize their competitive advantage through the implementation
and/or support of leading edge enterprise level applications from SAP,
PeopleSoft and Actuate and the maintenance of legacy application software by
focusing primarily on serving clients in the healthcare and government markets.
BrightStar has approximately 46 employees and full-time contractors and has its
headquarters in the San Francisco Bay Area with field offices in Addison, Texas,
and Quincy, Massachusetts.

The timing of revenue is difficult to forecast because the Company's sales cycle
can be relatively long and is subject to a number of uncertainties, including
customers' budgetary constraints, the timing of customers' budget cycles,
customers' internal approval processes and general economic conditions. In
addition, as is customary in the industry, the Company's engagements generally
can be changed or terminated without a significant customer penalty. The
Company's revenue and results of operations may fluctuate significantly from
quarter to quarter or year to year because of a number of factors, including,
but not limited to, changes in demand for IT services, the effect of changes in
estimates to complete fixed fee contracts, the rate of hiring and the
productivity of revenue generating personnel, the availability of qualified IT
professionals, the significance of customer engagements commenced and completed
during a quarter, the number of business days in the quarter, changes in the
relative mix of the Company's services, changes in the pricing of the Company's
services, the timing and the rate of entrance into new geographic or IT
specialty markets, departures or temporary absences of key revenue-generating
personnel, the structure and timing of acquisitions, and general economic
factors.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of salaries (including non-billable and
training time) and benefits for consultants. The Company generally strives to
maintain its gross profit margins by offsetting increases in salaries and
benefits with increases in billing rates, although this is subject to the market
conditions at the time. In addition, the Company tries to increase or decrease
the number of consultants used by the Company to provide its services, including
third party contractors, as the amount of billable work (and resultant revenue)
changes. In other words, the Company continually strives to minimize the amount
of unbillable consulting resources or bench. As revenues declined over the past
couple of years, the Company reduced its consulting resources accordingly.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) primarily consist of costs
associated with (i) corporate overhead, (ii) sales and account management, (iii)
telecommunications, (iv) human resources, (v) recruiting and training, and (vi)
other administrative expenses.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations discusses BrightStar's consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information. The preparation of these
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an
on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments. Management
bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other
factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results
of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets
and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results
may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others,
affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of its
consolidated financial statements.


Revenue recognition -- The Company provides services to customers for fees that
are based on time and materials or occasionally, fixed fee contracts. Revenue
for fixed fee contracts is recognized ratably over the contract term based on
the percentage-of-completion method. Costs incurred to date as a percentage of
total estimated costs are used to determine the percentage of the contract that
has been completed throughout the contract life. Costs reimbursed by its
customers are included in revenue for the periods in which costs are incurred.

Goodwill -- Goodwill is the cost in excess of amounts assigned to identifiable
assets acquired less liabilities assumed. Goodwill recorded in conjunction with
the Founding Companies and all other acquisitions in 1998 is no longer being
amortized due to the Company adopting Statement of Financials Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 142 as of January 1, 2002.

Income taxes -- The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability
approach to accounting for income taxes. The Company provides deferred income
taxes for temporary differences that will result in taxable or deductible
amounts in future years. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is
anticipated that some or all of a deferred tax asset may not be realized. Based
on the Company's net losses for the previous years, the Company has recorded a
valuation allowance for deferred taxes as of September 30, 2003. In the event
that the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred
tax assets in the future, an asset would be recorded, which in turn would
increase income in the period such determination was made.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of 2003 decreased from $2.2
million to $1.6 million and from $7.5 million to $4.4 million or 27% and 41%,
respectively, compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 as a
result of a continued reduction in the demand for enterprise software consulting
services, offset in part by an increase in legacy software services provided to
the Company's largest account. Revenue for the third quarter of 2003 was
approximately 10% higher than the prior sequential quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter and first nine
months of 2003 decreased from 33% to 29% and from 32% to 29%, respectively,
compared to third quarter and first nine months of 2002 as a result of a
reduction in consultant billing rates and a change in the mix of services
provided to our clients. The 2003 third quarter gross profit as a percentage of
revenue was approximately even with that of the prior sequential quarter ended
June 30, 2003.

The Company's reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses are the
result of the execution of the turnaround plan, which included reductions in
office space, sales personnel and related costs, management overhead and
discretionary expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On December 16, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement with BFI Business
Finance ("BFI"), a Santa Clara, California-based business-credit company, for a
two-year working capital line of credit for $0.75 million, to replace our
existing credit facility with Comerica Bank. Under the BFI agreement, available
borrowings are up to 85% of accounts receivable, after reduction for ineligible
accounts. The interest rate on outstanding balances is at prime plus 4% per
annum, plus a monthly administrative fee of 0.50% per month calculated on the
average daily balance outstanding. The minimum monthly interest and
administrative fee charged to the Company was at least $1,000 per month for the
first six months, escalating to $2,375 per month for the remaining term of the
agreement.

The Company relies primarily on the timeliness and amount of accounts receivable
collections to fund cash disbursements. As a result of prior losses and prior
negative cash flows, the Company experienced a significant decline in available
liquidity in 2001 and 2002. The Company improved its liquidity by securing
private placement financing in July 2001, by generating positive cash flow from
operations, by reaching settlement agreements with all of its legacy creditors,
and in December 2002 by replacing its credit facility with Comerica Bank, which
was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2002, with the BFI facility.

Under present circumstances, the Company believes that its estimated results
from operations when combined with the proceeds from the BFI credit facility
will be adequate to fund its obligations for the next 12 months.

On May 6, 2003, the Company retained the services of an investment banking firm
to help the Company explore its strategic alternatives. The Company paid an
initial fee of $20,000 at the signing of the agreement and commenced making
monthly payments of $5,000 starting on June 15, 2003 and which, under the
agreement, were scheduled to continue through October 15, 2003. Additionally the
Company issued warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock, exercisable
for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.035 per share, which was
the closing price of the Company's common stock on May 6, 2003. These warrants
were valued at $4,000 under the provisions of APB No. 14 and EITF 00-27 and were
expensed in the second quarter of 2003. The services of the investment banking
firm were terminated, effective August 21, 2003. The Company recorded an expense
of $25,000 in the third quarter of 2003 for the remaining payments due pursuant
to the contract and the remaining amortization relating to the initial
engagement fee that was being amortized over the life of the agreement. The
Company will continue to explore its tactical and strategic alternatives.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") includes "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than
statements of historical facts, included in this MD&A regarding the Company's
financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management of
the Company for future operations are forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future
events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of
which are outside of the Company's control, that could cause actual results to
materially differ from such statements. While the Company believes that the
assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are
inherent difficulties in predicting certain important factors, especially the
timing and magnitude of technological advances; the prospects for future
acquisitions; the possibility that a current customer could be acquired or
otherwise be affected by a future event that would diminish their information
technology requirements; the competition in the information technology industry
and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins; the degree
to which business entities continue to outsource information technology and
business processes; uncertainties surrounding budget reductions or changes in
funding priorities of existing government programs and the cost of attracting
and retaining highly skilled personnel.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
