Note 1 - Business Organization and Basis of Presentation

         Cotelligent Group, Inc.  ("Cotelligent" or the "Company") was formed in
February  1993  to  acquire,  own and  operate  software  professional  services
businesses  specializing in providing information  technology ("IT") consultants
on a contract basis and consulting and  outsourcing  services to businesses with
complex IT operations.

         On  February  20,  1996,   Cotelligent  acquired  four  companies  (the
"Founding  Companies")  simultaneously  with the initial public  offering of its
Common  Stock (the  "Offering").  These  acquisitions  were  accounted  for on a
historical cost basis.  During fiscal 1997, the Company  acquired six businesses
accounted for under the-pooling-of-interests method (the "Pooled Companies"). In
addition, during fiscal 1997, the Company acquired two businesses and during the
first six months of fiscal 1998 acquired one  business,  accounted for under the
purchase  method  (the  "Purchased  Companies").  The  operating  results of the
Founding and  Purchased  Companies are included  subsequent to their  respective
acquisition dates.



Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         The  accompanying  interim  financial  statements  do not  include  all
disclosures  included in the  financial  statements  for the fiscal  years ended
March 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 as included on Cotelligent's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 1997 ("Form  10-K"),  and therefore  should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements included on Form 10-K.

         In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements filed as
part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect all  adjustments,  consisting
only of normal  recurring  accruals,  necessary for a fair  presentation  of the
financial  position  and the  results  of  operations  and of cash flows for the
interim periods presented.

         In February  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 128,  "Earnings  per
share".  This  statement  establishes  standards for  comparing  and  presenting
earnings per share ("EPS").  SFAS 128 simplifies the standards for computing EPS
and  makes  the  presentation  comparable  to  international  EPS  standards  by
replacing the  presentation  of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS. It
also  requires  dual  presentation  of basic and dilutive EPS on the face of the
income statement. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding  for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the  potential  dilution that
could  occur  if  securities  or other  contracts  to issue  common  stock  were
exercised  or  converted  into common  stock.  This  Statement is required to be
adopted by the Company during fiscal 1998.

Note 4 - Unaudited Pro Forma Income Tax Information

         Prior to their  acquisitions in fiscal 1997,  certain  companies were S
corporations  and,  accordingly,  the  financial  statements  did not  reflect a
provision  for income  taxes,  as income  taxes were the  responsibility  of the
individual  stockholders.  Effective  with  these  acquisitions,  the  companies
terminated their respective S corporation  status.  The following  unaudited pro
forma  income tax  information  is  presented in  accordance  with  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  109  as  if  the  companies  had  been  C
corporations  subject to federal and state income taxes  throughout  the periods

                                     ITEM 2

            Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
                    Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

         Cotelligent  was formed in February  1993 to  acquire,  own and operate
software   professional   services  businesses   specializing  in  providing  IT
consultants  on a contract  basis and  consulting  and  outsourcing  services to
businesses  with  complex IT  operations.  On  February  20,  1996,  Cotelligent
acquired four  companies  (the  "Founding  Companies")  simultaneously  with the
initial  public  offering of its Common Stock ( the  "Offering").  Prior to this
date Cotelligent was a non-operating entity.

         During fiscal 1997, the Company  acquired six businesses  accounted for
under  the-pooling-of-interests  method (the "Pooled  Companies").  In addition,
during fiscal 1997, the Company  acquired three  businesses and during the first
six  months  of fiscal  1998  acquired  one  business,  accounted  for under the
purchase  method  (the  "Purchased  Companies").  The  operating  results of the
Founding and  Purchased  Companies are included  subsequent to their  respective
acquisition dates.

         The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from professional
service  activities.  The majority of these  activities are provided under "time
and  expense"  billing  arrangements,  and  revenues  are  recorded  as  work is
performed.  Revenues are directly related to the total number of hours billed to
clients and the  associated  hourly  billing  rates.  Hourly  billing  rates are
established for each service  professional  and such rates are a function of the
professional's skills,  experience and the type of work performed. The Company's
principal  costs  are   professional   compensation   directly  related  to  the
performance  of services and related  expenses.  Gross profits  (revenues  after
professional  compensation  and related  expenses)  are  primarily a function of
hours billed to clients per professional employee or consultant,  hourly billing
rates of those employees or consultants and employee or consultant  compensation
relative to those  billing  rates.  Gross  profits can be adversely  impacted if
service activities cannot be billed, if the Company is not effective in managing
its service  activities,  if fixed-fee  engagements (which historically have not
constituted a significant  portion of total revenues) are not properly priced or
if there are high levels of unutilized  time (work  activities not chargeable to
clients or unrelated  to client  services)  of  full-time  service  professional
employees.   Operating   income  (gross   profit  less   selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses) can be adversely impacted by increased  administrative
staff  compensation,  expenses  related to growing and  expanding  the Company's
business,  which may be  incurred  before  revenues  or  economics  of scale are
generated from such investment.

     As part of its  strategic  plan,  the  Company  intends  to  acquire  other
software professional  services businesses.  Should the Company be successful in
acquiring such  businesses,  the period in which such acquisition is consummated
could be  adversely  impacted by costs  associated  with such  acquisitions.  In
addition, financial periods subsequent to the completion of an acquisition could
be adversely  impacted by costs and activities  associated with the assimilation
and integration of the acquired company.

     As a professional  services  organization,  the Company responds to service
demands from its clients.  Accordingly, the Company has limited control over the
timing and circumstances under which its services are provided.  Therefore,  the
Company can  experience  volatility  in its  operating  results  from quarter to
quarter. The operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of
the results for any future period. The Company generally experiences a reduction
in gross profit in the first calendar quarter due to employment related taxes.

                    HISTORICAL COMBINED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                 Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to 
                      Three Months Ended September 30, 1996

Revenues

         Revenues  increased  $14.6  million,  or 42%,  to $49.8  million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1998 from $35.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal
1997. The increase was primarily  attributable to a 32% increase in total client
service  hours  provided  to 801,000  hours in the  second  quarter of 1998 from
609,000 hours in the second  quarter of 1997, and a 7.9% increase in the average
hourly  billing rate to $61.10 in the second  quarter of 1998 from $56.61 in the
second quarter of 1997.  The increase in hourly billing rate reflects  increased
demand for  professional  staff and  consultants  with higher skill levels and a
more favorable economic climate.  The increases discussed above were in addition
to an increase in  placement  fee  revenues  generated to $544,000 in the second
quarter of 1998 from $403,000 in the second quarter of 1997.

Gross Profit

         Gross profit  increased  $4.0 million,  or 38%, to $14.6 million in the
second  quarter  of 1998 from  $10.6  million  in the  second  quarter  of 1997,
primarily due an increase in hours of service provided to clients.  Gross margin
as a percentage  of revenues  decreased  to 29.4% in the second  quarter of 1998
from  30.3% in the  second  quarter of 1997,  principally  due to a lower  gross
margin inherent in the Purchased Companies.

Non - Recurring Transaction Costs

         Non-recurring  transaction costs include  expenditures  associated with
the acquisition of the Pooled Companies.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.2 million, or
38%,  to $11.4  million in the second  quarter of 1998 from $8.2  million in the
second  quarter of 1997.  The increase in absolute  dollars was primarily due to
increased  compensation  to existing staff,  staff added to support  anticipated
growth,   additional  occupancy  costs  and  an  increased  level  of  corporate
activities.   Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  decreased  as  a
percentage of revenues from 23.4% in the second  quarter of 1997 to 22.9% in the
