            AUDITORS' REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                            YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

In accordance with our appointment as auditors by your Annual General Meeting,
we have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of DECAN,
stated in French francs, for the year ended June 30, 1998.

These consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Board of
Directors. Our role is to express an opinion on these financial statements,
based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in
France. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view
of the financial position and the assets and liabilities of the Group as at June
30, 1998 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in France.

We have also performed the procedures required by law on the Group financial
information given in the report of the Board of Directors. We have no comment to
make as to the fair presentation of this information nor its consistency with
the consolidated financial statements.

                                      DECAN
              CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 1998

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1  PRINCIPLES AND METHODS OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1998 are established in
conformity with the provisions of the French law of January 3, 1985 and its
decree of application of February 17, 1986.

1.1    CONSOLIDATION

All significant investments in subsidiaries for which DECAN has exclusive
control, directly or indirectly, are fully consolidated. All significant
transactions between consolidated companies are eliminated.

1.2    INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets, except goodwill, are amortized using the straight-line method
over the following useful lives:

         Organization costs                          5 years
         Licenses, patents and trademarks            1 to 5 years

Goodwill results from acquisitions or from business valuations made when DECAN
was incorporated. Goodwill is not amortized. However, a reserve will be
established if the net result of the related company, adjusted for items not
directly resulting from operations and the application of a valuation
coefficient based on market factors, is inferior to the value of the goodwill
recorded in the balance sheet.

Research and development expenses are recorded in the income statement in the
period in which they are incurred.

1.3    GOODWILL

Acquisition differences resulting from investments in other entities (difference
between the purchase price and the respective portion of adjusted shareholders'
equity acquired) are recorded in the appropriate balance sheet accounts. For
acquired interests in companies which have external sales activities, a portion
of the goodwill is recorded to the "commercial funds" account which represents
the value assigned to the customer base acquired which is not amortized. This
value is determined in accordance with evaluations performed by and limited to
the interests of the group. Commercial funds are included in intangible assets
in the balance sheet.

The remaining goodwill recorded in the balance sheet relate to the real estate
companies DECAN and BERODE and INGENIA, which was acquired during the period
ended June 30, 1998. The goodwill related to the real estate companies are
amortized over a period identical to the remaining useful lives of the real
estate owned by the companies. The goodwill related to the acquisition of
INGENIA is amortized over a period of 10 years.

1.4    PROPERTY: PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Tangible assets are stated at historical cost. Depreciation is calculated over
the estimated useful lives of the assets using straight-line or accelerated
depreciation methods.

The principal useful lives are :

         - Computer software and hardware      3-5 years (SL or Accelerated)
         - Furniture and fixtures              10 years (SL)
         - Other tangible assets               5 to 10 years (SL)



                                      F-5
<PAGE>   10

Real estate under capital leases has been reclassified as capital assets using
the following principles:

      - Land and buildings are stated at historical cost
      - Buildings are amortized using the straight-line method over a period
        of 20 years
      - Debt is recorded and classified as current or non-current based upon the
        present value of rental payments and maturities as specified in the
        capital case agreement.

1.5    FINANCIAL ASSETS

Financial assets consist of investments in non-consolidated entities and
deposits relating to the rental of operating facilities (see footnote 3.3.).

1.6    ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are stated at historical cost and are due within 1 year. A
provision is recorded when book value is higher than the net realizable value.

Revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method. For work
performed as of the balance sheet date that has not yet been invoiced, the
corresponding revenue is recognized and an asset "cost in estimated earnings in
excess of billings on uncompleted contracts" is created. In situations where the
amounts invoiced as of the balance sheet date exceed the amounts relative to the
work performed to date, a liability "Billings in excess of costs and estimated
earnings on uncompleted contracts" is recorded.

If necessary, reserves are established to cover anticipated losses on contracts
in process.

1.7    SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments consist primarily of investments in money market funds.
The market value of these investments at June 30, 1998 is not significantly
different from the net book value recorded in the balance sheet.

1.8    CONVERTIBLE LOANS

Two convertible loans are outstanding as of June 30, 1998, one for DECAN and one
for INGENIA.

1.8.1  CONVERTIBLE LOAN - DECAN

Annual interest rate                                                      2.5%
</TABLE>

NORMAL MATURITY

The bonds mature in their totality on July 1, 2003 by reimbursement of F 891.20
per bond, or 111.4% of the issue price.

EARLY MATURITY

Early reimbursement of the bonds can only occur at the discretion of the
company. This can be done by:

1) Purchase of the bonds on the market and public offers
2) Early reimbursement, beginning on July 1, 2001 and extending until the
   maturity date, under under the following conditions:




                                      F-6
<PAGE>   11

- - the early reimbursement price will be determined in a manner through which
  this price, including accrued interest from July 1 of the year of
  reimbursement, provides the subscriber, after substracting dividends received
  in prior years, with a gross actuarial rate of return equal to that offered in
  the case of reimbursement at the normal maturity date, or 4.45%.

- - this early reimbursement will only be possible if the arithmetical average of
  the first price of the bonds quoted on the Second Market of the Paris Stock
  Exchange, for a period of 10 consecutive days including the 20 days prior to
  the appearance of the opinion of the "Journal Officiel" announcing the
  reimbursement, exceeds 120% of the early reimbursement price.

3) When less than 10% of the bonds remain in circulation.

CONVERSION OF BONDS INTO SHARES

At any time after March 10, 1998, the bonds can be converted into shares of
DECAN stock at a ratio of one share for one bond.

REDEMPTION PREMIUM

The amount of the loan represents the debt excluding any redemption premium.
Considering the condition of the actual market price of the DECAN stock and the
maturity date of the loan, the company has estimated the risk of non-conversion
of the bonds to be negligible and has not established a reserve to account for
the potential risk of payment of redemption premiums. The total amount that
would be due, at maturity, in the case of non-conversion is F 10,786,042. As of
June 30, 1998, the portion of this amount that would have been incurred amounts
to F 571,186.

1.8.2    CONVERTIBLE LOAN - INGENIA

Period of loan                                     4 years and 5 years
Annual interest rate                                                6%
</TABLE>

NORMAL MATURITY

The reimbursement of non-converted bonds will be made at par value upon maturity
of the loan. The maturity date for one-half of the bonds is December 1, 1999 and
December 1, 2000 for the other half of the bonds.

CONVERSION OF BONDS INTO SHARES

Beginning on December 1, 1996, the owners of the bonds will have the option to
convert the bonds into shares of the company in exchange for forgiveness of the
debt. Each F 6,034 bond is convertible into 18 shares of common stock with a
nominal value of F 100 per share.

NON-REDEMPTION PREMIUM

Additional interest payable in the event of non-conversion of the bonds into
shares of stock is equal to 3% of the nominal amount of the debt and has been
fully reserved.

<PAGE>   12

1.9    CONTINGENCIES

The financial statement line item "contingencies" represents reserves
established to cover related to completed services or services in process as
well as severance reserves.

1.10   FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange rate
(June 30, 1998). Only unrealized losses resulting from these transactions are
recorded in the income statement for the period.

Sales in foreign currencies represent approximately F 11.5 million. The group
covers the exchange rate risk relative to these operations through the use of
option contracts.

The accounts of DECAN SUISSE, DECAN INC. and INGENIA INC. are converted to
French Francs using the closing exchange rate for the balance sheet accounts and
the average exchange rate for the income statement accounts.

1.11   CURRENT AND DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

Deferred taxes are calculated for significant temporary differences between book
and tax income using the legal tax rate for the period. For purposes of
conservatism, it is the Group's policy not to recognize net deferred tax assets
for the individual companies in the Group. It must be noted that as of June 30,
1998, the subsidiary INGENIA had operating loss carryforwards in the amount of F
72.2 million. The deferred tax assets relating to these carryforwards have not
been recognized.

1.12   OFF BALANCE SHEET COMMITTMENTS

The provision for retirement indemnities has not been calculated as it is not
considered to be significant in light of the average age of the employees and
the young age of the companies concerned.

2.     CONSOLIDATION

In comparison to the consolidated accounts as of June 30, 1997, the following
changes have occurred in the consolidation:

- -    the inclusion of the company INGENIA and its affiliates IDEC, INGENIA
     DIALEXIS, ACS, INGENIA INC.,
- -    the inclusion of the company SIGMA CONSEIL,
- -    the exclusion of the company ATIX,
- -    the spin-off of the company DECAN S.A. and the creation of two new
     companies DECAN CONSEIL and DECAN RESEAUX.

INGENIA was acquired in December 1997 with an effective date retroactive to July
1, 1997 (the results taken into account cover a period of 12 months). SIGMA
CONSEIL was acquired in April 1998 with an effective date retroactive to January
1, 1998 (the results taken into account cover a period of 6 months).

ATIX was sold on July 1, 1997.

The spin-off of DECAN and the creation of DECAN RESEAUX and DECAN CONSEIL were
effective on July 1, 1997. As concerns intra-group operations, this spin-off did
not have any significant impact on the consolidated accounts.

10.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective July 1, 1998, DECAN acquired the whole capital share of SWORD, a
company specialized in management of trademarks and patents, which has sales of
approximately FF 30 000 000 per year.

In the beginning of the second half of 1998, DECAN started up two new
companies:

- -    DECAN EMS, a company which is specialized in ERP systems; its expected
     sales for the year ended June 30, 1999 is approximately FF 8 000 000.

- -    FIRCOSOFT, a company which will market the software FIRCO, related to swift
     messages reconstruction ; this software was first developped by INGENIA, a
     subsidiary of DECAN.

In order to simplify DECAN's legal structure, a merger between DECAN and its
parent company, GD took place on December 22, 1998. The share capital of DECAN
decreased FF 80.280 and the "paid in capital" increased by FF 1.289.406.

On January 29, 1999, an internal legal restructuring was carried out. DECAN CS
(ex INGENIA), the main subsidiary of DECAN, merged with ten operating companies
fully owned by DECAN. This operation had no effect on the consolidated equity.

On April 13, 1999, DECAN acquired the whole share capital of IB NEXT, a company
specialized in ERP systems, which had sales of approximately FF 7 000 000 for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

On April 19,1999, Metamor Worldwide, Inc. ("Metamor"), a provider of information
technology services located in Houston, Texas, completed its tender offer for
the publicly held shares of Decan. Currently, Metamor owns approximately 98% of
the Decan shares.

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       INCOME TAXES

         Decan follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes.
Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of
assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which
the differences are expected to reverse. Decan's interim provisions for income
taxes were computed using its estimated effective tax rate for the year.

2.       SALE OF DECAN

         In April 1999, Metamor Worldwide, Inc. ("Metamor") completed its tender
offer for the publicly held shares of Decan. The tender offer commenced in
February 1999 following the purchase by Metamor of Decan shares from Delphi, plc
and from Jacques Mottard, chairman and managing director of Decan. Currently,
Metamor has acquired 98.4% of the Decan common shares outstanding and 94.9% of
the convertible bonds outstanding, resulting in a 96.3% ownership on a fully
diluted basis. The acquisition has been accounted for by Metamor using the
purchase method of accounting and the effects of the acquisition by Metamor have
been "pushed down" to Decan.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION


     The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements give effect to the completion of the acquisition by Metamor
Worldwide, Inc. ("Metamor" or the "Company") of 98.4% of the voting stock and
94.9 percent of the convertible notes of Decan Groupe ("Decan") on April 19,
1999. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet adjusts the
Company's consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1999 for the acquisition of
additional interests in Decan that occurred after the balance sheet date. The
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations adjusts the
historical consolidated statements of operations of the Company and Decan to
give effect to the acquisition of Decan as if it had occurred as of the
beginning of the periods presented.



     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are
based on a preliminary allocation of the purchase price. The final allocation
may vary as additional information is obtained, and accordingly, the ultimate
allocations may differ from the allocations used in the unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements.



     The pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared from and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated
financial statements and related notes thereto of Decan included elsewhere
herein and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of
Metamor Worldwide, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the three
months ended March 31, 1999, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.



     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are not
necessarily indicative of the financial position or operating results that would
have occurred had the acquisition been consummated on the date or at the
beginning of the periods for which the acquisition is being given effect nor is
it necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position.

                    METAMOR WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
    NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   GENERAL


     In February 1999, Metamor Worldwide, Inc. (the "Company") acquired 41.9
percent of the common stock of Decan Groupe ("Decan"), a publicly held,
French-based Information Technology Solutions business, for $54.9 million in
cash and 0.2 million shares of the Company's common stock valued at $6.2
million. Following this purchase, the Company instituted a cash tender offer for
the remaining shares and completed the tender offer in April 1999. Currently,
the Company owns 98.4 percent of Decan's common stock and 94.9 percent of its
convertible notes, which are convertible into common stock of Decan. The
consideration for the Decan purchase totaled approximately $161 million,
consisting of $154.8 million in cash and 0.2 million shares of Metamor stock
having a value of $6.2 million.



     The acquisition of Decan has been accounted for using the purchase method
of accounting. Accordingly, the Company included the results of operations of
Decan in its consolidated results in February 1999 when its ownership interest
in Decan exceeded 50 percent. Prior thereto, the Company accounted for its
ownership interest using the equity method of accounting.


2.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS


     The following pro forma adjustments give effect to the acquisition of
Decan by the Company (See "Basis of Presentation" on page F-24).


BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS:


     (a)  To reflect (i) the increase in goodwill and the decrease in minority
          interest related to the acquisition of interests in Decan that
          occurred after March 31, 1999 and (ii) the related increase in
          borrowing under the Company's Senior Credit Agreement to fund the
          purchase of additional interests.


STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS ADJUSTMENTS:

     (a)  To reflect amortization of goodwill resulting from the acquisition of
          Decan using a 40 year amortization period.

     (b)  To reflect interest expense from borrowings under the Company's Senior
          Credit Agreement to fund the acquisition.


     (c)  To adjust the minority interest for the amount outstanding after
          completion of the acquisition.


     (d)  To adjust income taxes for the estimated effective tax rate.

     (e)  To reflect the issuance of 0.2 million shares of Metamor's common
          stock in connection with the purchase of Decan.
