NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
   
   The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of 
Whittman-Hart, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules 
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly 
reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note 
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The 
information furnished herein includes all adjustments which are, in the 
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for these 
interim periods, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year 
ending December 31, 1998. 
   
   These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 
Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the 
year ended December 31, 1997, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K 
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

   The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" as of January 1, 1998.  Required changes
are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income
and Consolidated Balance Sheets.


2.   COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

   Net income and earnings per share are computed in accordance with Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per share" ("Statement 128"). 

3.   BUSINESS COMBINATION

     During March 1998, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock
of QCC, Inc. ("QCC") for 600,000 shares of its common stock.  Headquartered in
the Boston metropolitan area, QCC's approximately 75 professionals provide the
following services: package software evaluation; business process reengineering;
data warehousing; implementation of software packages developed by
SSA-Registered Trademark-, Oracle-Registered Trademark-, and
JDEdwards-Registered Trademark-; application development for AS/400 and client
server applications; and Year 2000 compliance services.  This business
combination has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests combination.  The
stockholders' equity and operations of QCC were not material in relation to
those of the Company.  As such, the Company has recorded the combination without
restating prior periods' consolidated financial statements to reflect the
pooling-of-interests combination.  In connection with the acquisition of QCC,
the Company recorded deferred income tax expense related to the establishment of
deferred income tax assets and liabilities which arose due to the change in tax
status from a S corporation to a C corporation.

4.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY 

     On May 8, 1998, the Company completed a follow-on public offering of its
common stock in which an additional 3,400,000 shares were sold by the Company,
resulting in net proceeds to the Company of  $69.8 million.

     In July 1998 the Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of its 
common shares. Shareholders will receive one additional common share for 
every share held on the record date of July 12, 1998. All of the per share 
data, as appropriate, reflect this split. The effect of the split is 
presented retroactively within

                                      6
<PAGE>

stockholders' equity at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 by transferring 
the par value for the additional shares issued from the additional paid in 
capital accounts to common stock accounts. 

5.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

   During July 1998, the Company acquired North Central Consulting, Inc. 
("NCC"), a Minneapolis-based IT services firm. The Company issued 638,508 
shares of its common stock in the transaction, which will be accounted as a 
pooling-of-interests combination and, accordingly, the Company's historical 
consolidated financial statements presented in future reports will be 
restated to include the accounts and results of  NCC.  Headquartered in 
Minnetonka, Minnesota, with a satellite office in Milwaukee, NCC's 
approximately 120 professionals specialize in providing ERP software 
implementations, custom application development and internet-enabled 
solutions to middle-market manufacturing, distribution and financial services 
companies, as well as some divisions and departments of Fortune 500 
companies. The combination of Whittman-Hart's recently opened Minneapolis 
branch with approximately 40 employees and NCC's four-year-old office 
accelerates Whittman-Hart's ability to provide a full-suite of IT services to 
its target customer base.

   REVENUES.  Revenues increased 68% to $ 68.9 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 from $41.1million for the three months ended June 30, 1997. 
Revenues in the first six months of 1998 also increased 68% to $127.6 million
from $76.1 million for the first six months of 1997.  These increases were
attributable to the addition of new clients and the growth of current client
relationships at existing and new branch locations.  Revenues from the Company's
ten most significant clients grew in both the second quarter and first six
months of 1998 by 50% and 48%, respectively, but as a percentage of total
revenues declined to 15% for both the three and six months ended  June 30, 1998
as compared to 20% for the same periods in the prior year.
   
   GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit consists of revenues less cost of services, which
includes consultant salaries and benefits.  Gross profit for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 grew 75% to $29.1 million from $16.6 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997.  Gross profit in the first six months of 1998
increased 74% to $53.3 million from $30.7 in the first six months of 1997. Gross
profit as a percentage of revenues was 42% for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to 40% for the three and six months ended June 30,
1997.  This increase was attributable to a change in the sales mix toward
higher-end service offerings and the Company's established branches reaching
critical mass, partially offset by lower margins  in recently opened branches.
   
   SELLING.  Selling expenses include the salaries, benefits, commissions, 
travel, entertainment and all other direct costs associated with the 
Company's direct sales force.  Selling expenses for the three months ended 
June 30, 1998 increased approximately 68% to $2.6 million from $1.5 million 
for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  Selling expenses in the first six 
months of 1998 increased 59% to $4.4 million from $2.7 million in the first 
six months of 1997. These increases were attributable to higher commissions 
and other costs associated with the increase in revenues.  As a percentage of 
revenues, however, selling expenses for the three months ended June 30,1998 
and for the six months ended June 30, 1998 decreased to 3% as compared  to 4% 
for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in selling expenses as a 
percentage of revenues was attributable to the Company's ability to leverage 
its fixed selling costs over a greater revenue base. 
   
   RECRUITING.  Recruiting expenses consist of costs related to hiring new
personnel.  These costs include the salaries, benefits, bonuses and other direct
costs of in-house recruiters, outside recruiting agency fees, sign-on bonuses,
relocation fees and advertising costs.  Recruiting expenses for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 increased 84% to $2.6 million from $1.4 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1997.  Recruiting expenses for the first six months
of 1998 increased 88% to $4.5 million from $2.4 million for the first six months
of 1997.  The number of employees increased 62% to 2,309 at June 30, 1998 from
1,422 at June 30, 1997.  Total recruiting costs per hire increased to
approximately $5,700 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $4,900 for the
six months ended June 30, 1997.  As a percentage of revenues, recruiting
expenses increased to 4% for the three and six months ended  June 30, 1998 as
compared  to 3% for the comparable periods in 1997. This increase is
attributable to expanding the Company's recruiting infrastructure to support
anticipated hiring needs. As of June 30, 1998, approximately 79% of the total
employees were consultants.
    
   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses include
salaries and benefits of management and support personnel, facilities costs,
training, travel, outside professional fees and all other branch and corporate
costs.  General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30,
1998 increased  85% to $17.7 million from $9.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1997.   General and administrative expenses for the first six
months of 1998 increased 84% to $32.9 million from $17.9 million for the first
six months of 1997. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative
expenses increased to 26% for the three months and six months ended June 30,
1998 from 23% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997. This increase
was attributable to new and newly acquired offices, integration costs associated
with the Company's acquisitions, corporate initiatives associated with the
Company's Focus 2002 strategic plan, costs related to new branch locations and
the addition of management to support the Company's growth strategies.

   BUSINESS COMBINATION COSTS.  Business combination costs were $0.4 million, 
or less than 1% of revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 1998.  These 
costs related to the Company's acquisition of QCC Incorporated ("QCC") in 
March 1998, which was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.  The business 
combination costs included legal, accounting and other transaction-relations 
fees and expenses.  There were no material acquisition-related costs in the 
six months ended June 30,1997.
   
   INCOME TAXES.  The Company's effective tax rate was 40% and 43% for second
quarter and first six months of 1998, respectively, as compared to 41% and 40%
for the same periods in 1997.  The increased tax rate for the first six months
of 1998 was the result of the Company incurring non-deductible business
combination costs and, in addition, recording deferred income tax expense of
$0.3 million to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities arising at the
time of the combination with QCC.  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
   
     At June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $139.9 million of cash,
cash equivalents and short-term investments, compared to $67.8 million at
December 31, 1997. The Company's primary source of liquidity has been cash from
operations and cash provided through equity offerings. The Company has a loan
agreement for up to $5.0 million of unsecured credit with interest payable, at
the Company's option, at LIBOR plus 1.5% or the lender's prime rate. There were
no borrowings under this loan agreement as of July  31, 1998. The Company's loan
agreement expires on April 30, 1999.
   
   On May 8, 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering of its 
common stock, which resulted in net proceeds to the Company of $37.8 million. 
A portion of the proceeds from the offering were used to retire the Company's 
term facilities. On August 27, 1996, the Company completed a follow-on public 
offering of its common stock, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of 
approximately $27.8 million. On May 8, 1998, the Company completed another 
follow-on public offering of its common stock, resulting in net proceeds to 
the Company of  $69.8 million.
   
   Operating activities provided net cash flows of  $3.1 million  for the six 
months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was due primarily to net income, 
increases in accrued compensation, income taxes payable and other accrued 
liabilities, which were partially offset by increases in accounts receivable 
and other current assets. 
   
   The Company plans to use the funds generated from its third  public 
offering primarily for the development and expansion of its existing 
operations, including: (i) expansion of the Company's Chicago West Loop 
complex from approximately 40,000 square feet to over 300,000 square feet 
during the next two years to accommodate the further development of the 
Whittman-Hart Institute of Strategic Education ("WHISE"), the relocation of 
the Company's headquarters and the growth of the Company's Chicago branch 
office; and (ii) general corporate purposes, including working capital, 
branch expansion and possible acquisitions of related businesses.  
   
   The Company anticipates the net proceeds of its three public offerings, 
together with existing sources of liquidity and funds generated from 
operations, will provide adequate cash to fund its anticipated cash needs at 
least through the next twelve months.

YEAR 2000

     The Company believes that the effect of the Year 2000 on its internal
information systems will have an immaterial impact on the Company.  The Company
believes that a majority of middle-market companies have yet to achieve Year
2000 compliance.  To resolve the Year 2000 issue, many companies are electing to
install new package software applications, rather than modify existing systems,
thus creating significant demand for package software-related services such as
those provided by the Company.  Consequently, the Company believes that
companies' need to address their Year 2000 compliance is creating significant
demand for IT products and services such as those provided by the Company. 
There can be no assurance that the passage of the Year 2000 will not have a
material adverse effect on the demand for the Company's services.  In addition,
while the Company is not aware of any existing or potential claims, the
occurrence of Year 2000 could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations, whether or not the
Company bears any responsibility, legal or otherwise, for the occurrence of
those problems.

   
ACQUISITIONS
   
   During March 1998, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock 
of QCC, Inc. ("QCC") for 600,000 shares (includes the effect of stock split) 
of its common stock. Headquartered in the Boston metropolitan area, QCC's 
approximately 75 professionals provide the following services: package 
software evaluation; business process reengineering; data warehousing; 
implementation of software packages developed by SSA-Registered Trademark-, 
Oracle-Registered Trademark-and JDEdwards-Registered Trademark-; application 
development for AS/400 and client server applications; and Year 2000 
compliance services. This business combination has been accounted for as a 
pooling-of-interests combination.  The stockholders' equity and operations of 
QCC were not material in relation to those of the Company.  As such, the 
Company has recorded the combination without restating prior periods' 
consolidated financial statements to reflect the pooling-of-interests 
combination.
   
   
   During July 1998, the Company acquired North Central Consulting, Inc. 
("NCC"), a Minneapolis-based IT services firm. The Company issued 638,508 
shares (includes the effect of stock split) of its common stock in the 
transaction, which will be accounted as a pooling-of-interests combination 
and, accordingly, the Company's historical consolidated financial statements 
presented in future reports will be restated to include the accounts and 
results of  NCC. Headquartered in Minnetonka, Minnesota, with a satellite 
office in Milwaukee, NCC's approximately 120 professionals specialize in 
providing ERP software implementations, custom application development and 
internet-enabled solutions to middle-market manufacturing, distribution and 
financial services companies, as well as some divisions and departments of 
Fortune 500 companies. The combination of Whittman-Hart's recently opened 
Minneapolis branch with approximately 40 employees and NCC's four-year-old 
office accelerates Whittman-Hart's ability to provide a full-suite of IT 
services to its target customer base.

   
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
   
   In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of 
an Enterprise and Related Information."   SFAS No. 131 supersedes SFAS No. 
14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise" and 
establishes new standards for reporting information about operating segments 

                                      11
<PAGE>

in interim and annual financial statements.  This statement is effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company does not believe 
that SFAS No. 131 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.
