      NOTE 4.  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

      On March 1, 2000, the Company and USWeb Corporation completed a merger.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, approximately 82,431,300 shares of
Whittman-Hart common stock were exchanged for all the outstanding common stock
of USWeb/CKS. In addition, employee options and warrants to purchase 34,010,426
shares of the Company's common stock and warrants to purchase 2,058,700 shares
of the Company's common stock were assumed by Whittman-Hart and became options
or warrants to purchase Whittman-Hart common stock. These amounts reflect an
exchange ratio of 0.865 of a share of Whittman-Hart common stock for each share
of USWeb/CKS common stock. This transaction was accounted for as a purchase
business combination in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations" and, accordingly, the results of
operations of USWeb/CKS have been included in the Company's financial statements
from March 1, 2000.

      The total consideration for the transaction was valued at approximately
$7.1 billion as of February 29, 2000, which includes the value, as of March 1,
2000, of common stock issued in the merger, options and warrants, and other
direct acquisition costs.

      The purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the following:

OVERVIEW

      On March 1, 2000, Whittman-Hart merged with USWeb/CKS. As a result of
the merger, the Company's revenue and operating expenses increased
substantially in the current period and the Company believes that such
increases are likely to continue to increase in future periods as compared to
pre-merger periods. This business combination was accounted for by the
purchase method, and accordingly, the results of operations of USWeb/CKS have
been included in the Company's financial statements and reflected in the
Company's results of operations from March 1, 2000. Prior to the consummation
of the merger on March 1, 2000, the Company filed a registration statement on
Form S-4 on January 27, 2000, Registration No. 333-94565, which was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 27, 2000. This
registration statement contains unaudited pro forma information for the
combined company.

      marchFIRST is the new name for the company formerly known as
Whittman-Hart, which reflects the merger of Whittman-Hart and USWeb/CKS,
completed on March 1, 2000. As a leading information technology services company
prior to the merger, Whittman-Hart provided technology-based e-Business
solutions, including back office business systems integration, supply-chain
management and business-to-business processes and technologies. USWeb/CKS was a
leading provider of Internet professional services, with an emphasis on emerging
e-commerce companies and the Fortune 500 business-to-consumer marketplace, and
offered strong strategy and creative capabilities.

marchFIRST, Inc. ("marchFIRST" or the "Company") is now an Internet
professional services firm that helps companies


                                      8
<PAGE>


build business models, brands, systems and processes to capitalize on the
opportunities created by the Internet and related computer and communications
technologies. marchFIRST has more than 70 offices in 14 countries and employs
more than 9,000 employees. The professional services provided by marchFIRST
include business strategy and management consulting, creative branding and
marketing, Web application design and development, packaged software
implementation and integration, and Web and network infrastructure design and
implementation. marchFIRST also provides integrated application hosting
services and, through an affiliate company, plans to provide access to
venture capital and external funding sources. marchFIRST provides services to
clients ranging from early-stage Internet start up companies to Global 2000
companies, reflecting management's belief that the Internet has narrowed the
range of needs among small, middle-market and global companies.

      The Company's revenues are generated primarily from professional fees,
which are generally billed at a contracted hourly rate and are recognized as
services are provided. A majority of marchFIRST's revenues are generated on a
time and materials basis. The Company's services are also provided on a
fixed-bid or fee-capped basis, in which case revenues are recognized by the
percentage of completion method. Billable rates vary by service provided and
geographic region. Although a majority of engagements are billed on a time and
material basis, marchFIRST will increase the percentage of its engagements that
are based on a fixed price, as a result of the merger with USWeb/CKS. These
arrangements subject the Company to the risk of cost overruns; however,
historically, such overruns have not been significant. The Company typically
bills on a weekly basis to monitor client satisfaction and manage its
outstanding accounts receivable balances. The Company's most significant cost is
project cost of services, which consists of consultant salaries and benefits.
Thus, the Company's financial performance is primarily based upon billing margin
(billable hourly rate less the consultant's hourly cost) and personnel
utilization rates (billable hours divided by paid hours).

      To date, the Company has been able to maintain its billing margins by
offsetting increases in consultant salaries with increases in its hourly rates.
Because most of the Company's engagements are on a time and materials basis,
increases in its cost of services are generally passed along to the Company's
clients and, accordingly, do not have a significant impact on the Company's
financial results. In addition, the Company attempts to control expenses that
are not passed through to its clients. Furthermore, profitability is improved by
tying significant incentive compensation to achieving performance goals.

      The Company establishes standard billing guidelines based on the type of
service offered. Actual billing rates are established on a project-by-project
basis and may vary from the standard guidelines. Over the last three years, the
Company's average revenue per assignment hour has steadily increased. The growth
in average revenue per assignment hour reflects a higher percentage of
value-added services, such as package software implementations and
solutions-oriented strategic consulting projects.

      The Company manages its personnel utilization rates by monitoring project
requirements and timetables. The number of consultants assigned to a project
will vary according to the size, complexity, duration and demands of the
project. Project terminations, completions and scheduling delays may result in
periods in which consultants are not fully utilized. An unanticipated
termination of a project could result in a higher than expected number of
unassigned consultants or, if the Company were to terminate such consultants,
increased severance expenses. Although the number of the Company's consultants
can be adjusted to correspond to the number of active projects, marchFIRST must
maintain a sufficient number of senior consultants to oversee existing client
projects and assist the Company's sales force in



                                      9


<PAGE>


securing new client assignments. marchFIRST consultants are subject to
employment contracts that may be terminated upon two weeks' notice without
substantial penalty or further expense to the Company.

      Historically, the Company's revenue growth has been attributable to the
addition of new clients and the growth of current client relationships at
existing and new branch locations supplemented by acquisitions. The Company's
merger with USWeb/CKS doubled the number of professionals employed by the
Company. During the remainder of 2000, the Company intends to continue to
achieve growth primarily through acquisitions and through the addition of new
clients and growth of current client relationships at both existing and new
branch locations.

      REVENUES. Revenues increased 109%, or 118.7 million, to $227.4 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $ 108.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to additional
revenues generated subsequent to March 1, 2000 which resulted from the Company's
merger with USWeb/CKS. The revenues recognized subsequent to March 1, 2000 and
which were attributable to the merger were $85.5 million. The remaining increase
in revenue was due to the addition of new clients and to the growth of current
client relationships at existing and new branch locations and to the acquisition
of Fulcrum Solutions, Ltd. ("Fulcrum") in November 1999.

      Revenues from the Company's ten most significant clients grew more than
300%, and as a percentage of total revenues, increased to 17% for the three
months ended March 31, 2000. This compared to 13% for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. The increase in revenue from the Company's ten most significant
clients is attributable to new clients resulting from the merger with USWeb/CKS.



                                     10


<PAGE>


      GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit consists of revenues less cost of services,
which includes consultant salaries and benefits and other incentives for
employees engaged in delivering professional services. Gross profit for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 grew 140% to $112.9 million from $47.1 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Gross profit as a percentage of
revenues was 50% in the first three months of 2000, compared to 43% in 1999. The
increase in gross profit was due to increased gross profits resulting from the
merger with USWeb/CKS subsequent to March 1, 2000. Gross profit recognized
subsequent to March 1, 2000 attributable to the merger was $50.7 million. The
remaining increase in gross profit was due to a change in the sales mix toward
higher-end service offerings, the Company's established branches reaching
critical mass, and the acquisition of Fulcrum in November 1999, partially offset
by lower margins in recently opened branches.

      SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and marketing expenses include the
salaries, benefits, commissions, travel, entertainment and all other direct
costs associated with the direct sales force as well as advertising, branding,
and other marketing costs. During the first quarter of 2000, costs related to
branding and marketing resulted primarily from the merger and integration of
Whittman-Hart and USWeb/CKS. Accordingly, the costs were classified as merger
and integration costs.

      Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000
increased approximately 172% to $14.8 million from $5.4 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. This increase was subsequent to March 1, 2000 and
was largely attributable to additional sales and marketing personnel expenses
resulting from the Company's merger with USWeb/CKS. It was also due to increased
efforts in the area of sales and marketing. As a percentage of revenues, selling
expenses in the first quarter of 2000 were 7%, compared to 5% in the first
quarter of 1999.

      GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. 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, including recruiting costs. General and administrative expenses
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased 123% to $66.5 million from
$29.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase was due to
additional costs subsequent to March 1, 2000 and was related to the merger with
USWeb/CKS. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses
increased to 29% for the three month period ended March 31, 2000, compared to
28% in the three month period ended March 31, 1999. The increase in general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues resulted largely from
duplicative efforts during the integration of the two companies. The Company
expects further decreases in general and administrative expenses as the Company
continues its integration efforts.

      ACQUIRED IN-PROCESS TECHNOLOGY. Acquired in-process technology resulted
from the Company's merger with USWeb/CKS. Acquired in-process technology
expenses were $4.8 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2000.
Acquired in-process technology represents purchased technology that had not
reached the stage of technological feasibility as of the merger and had no
alternative future use. Accordingly, such amounts were charged to operations in
the period. There were no in-process technology expenses during the three month
period ended March 31, 1999.

      STOCK COMPENSATION. Stock compensation resulted principally from non-cash
stock compensation arrangements assumed when the Company merged with USWeb/CKS.
The



                                     11


<PAGE>


expense resulted primarily from stock bonuses awarded to employees of
companies previously acquired by USWeb/CKS, prior to March 1, 2000, as well
as stock from options granted by USWeb/CKS, with exercise prices below the
fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Stock
compensation is classified as a cost of revenue or operating expense
depending on the classification of the respective employees. Such expenses
are recognized ratably over the vesting period, which are generally three to
four years. Stock compensation expense totaled $15.2 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2000 and related largely to costs incurred subsequent
to March 1, 2000. The Company did not incur stock compensation expense in the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999. The Company expects to continue to
incur similar stock compensation expense during the remainder of 2000.

      AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Amortization of intangible assets
consists primarily of amortization of purchased technology, workforce in place,
and goodwill resulting from acquisitions. Amortization of intangible assets
totaled $118.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 and included
amortization of intangible assets capitalized as a result of the merger with
USWeb/CKS subsequent to March 1, 2000. Amortization of intangible assets for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 totaled $0.1 million. The Company will
continue to amortize its intangible assets related to the merger with USWeb/CKS
during the next five years. Amortization expense related to intangible assets is
expected to approximate $1.4 billion annually.

      MERGER AND INTEGRATION COSTS. Merger and integration costs were $6.9
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and $2.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. As a percentage of revenue, merger and integration
costs accounted for 3% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000,
and 2% for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The merger and integration
costs included legal, accounting, other transaction-related fees and expenses,
and severance payments and costs directly related to integrating acquired
companies. During the first three months of 2000, these costs related to the
Company's merger with USWeb/CKS on March 1, 2000. In the first quarter of 1999,
these costs related to the Company's acquisition of Waterfield in March 1999.
Also contributing to the increase were expenses related to the creation, launch
and promotion of the Company's new brand. The Company anticipates that merger
and integration costs related to the merger with USWeb/CKS will total
approximately $70 million in 2000.

      OPERATING INCOME (LOSS). Operating income (loss) decreased $122.7 million
to a loss of $113.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from
operating income of $9.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
increased operating loss is due principally to expenses associated with the
amortization of intangible assets, stock compensation expense and merger and
integration costs associated with the merger with USWeb/CKS. As a percentage of
revenues, operating income (loss) decreased to a negative 50% for the three
months ended March 31, 2000, compared to 8% for the three months ended March 31,
1999.

      OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income, net increased 92% to $3.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. The first quarter of 2000 included increased interest income on
investments related to the net proceeds of $98.2 million from the Company's
issuance of common stock to Novell, Inc. in November 1999 and the cash resulting
from the acquisition of USWeb/CKS.

      INCOME TAXES. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the provision
for income taxes represents U.S. federal, foreign and state taxes accrued for
marchFIRST subsidiaries. The tax expense is computed based on taxes paid in
foreign jurisdictions and the effect of certain items



                                     12


<PAGE>


affecting taxable income that do not affect provision for income taxes. For
the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the provision for income taxes represents
the actual provision for income taxes of Whittman-Hart prior to its merger
with USWeb/CKS.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      At March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $490.9 million of cash,
cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments compared to $284.3
million at December 31, 1999. Long-term investments at March 31, 2000 included
$38.5 million in non-marketable equity securities and $43.3 million in
marketable equity securities. The Company's cash and cash equivalents as well as
short and long term investments increased approximately $275 million resulting
from its merger with USWeb/CKS. The Company's primary source of liquidity has
been cash provided through equity offerings and cash from operations.

      As of March 31, 2000, marchFIRST had a loan agreement for up to $10.0
million of unsecured credit with interest, 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 March 31, 2000. On April 30, 2000, the above loan agreement was
extended to April 30, 2001, and the available amount of borrowings was increased
to $20.0 million. In connection with the Company's merger with USWeb/CKS, the
Company assumed two revolving credit lines with the maximum borrowing capacity
of $35 million of which approximately $15.5 million was outstanding as of March
3, 2000. The credit agreements are scheduled to expire June 30, 2000.

      Net cash used in operating activities was $42.1 million during the three
month period ended March 31, 2000. The use of cash during the three months ended
March 31, 2000 was due largely to increases in accounts receivable, which were
partially offset by increases in liabilities and other non-cash expenses. During
the three months ended March 31, 1999, operating activities provided $7.8
million due primarily to net income generated during the period.

      Capital expenditures of $14.9 million and $9.7 million for the three month
periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, consisted primarily of real
estate, computer equipment and software and office furniture and equipment to
support the growth and expansion of the Company.

      During the remainder of 2000, marchFIRST expects to make similar types of
expenditures relating to the expansion of offices and the improvement of
information systems. The Company also expects to make expenditures of
approximately $50.0 million in 2000 related to the expansion of marchFIRST's new
Chicago facility, which will house marchFIRST's education center, the Chicago
branch office, and its corporate headquarters. Total capital expenditures for
marchFIRST during 2000 are expected to approximate $100.0 million.

      During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999,
$19.0 million and $6.3 million, respectively, of cash was provided by the
exercise of stock options and the purchase of common stock through the Company's
employee stock purchase plan.

      On April 26, 2000, the Company signed an operating lease agreement which
engaged Bank One Capital Markets, Inc. as administrative agent to structure,
arrange and syndicate a $93 million lease facility. The financing will be
utilized to develop previously acquired property into the new corporate
headquarters of marchFIRST. Included as part of this lease facility is the
construction of a parking facility. The lease agreement will include a
construction period of up to



                                    13

<PAGE>

27 months. Upon completion of the structures, the five-year lease term will
commence. The lease will bear an interest rate of the LIBOR rate plus an
applicable margin. The Company's lease obligation is dependent upon the
ultimate cost of the facility. The lease contains certain restrictive
covenants related to change in control and also various financial covenants.
In addition, the Company has the option to renew the lease at the end of the
term or purchase the lessor's interest in the property.

      The Company anticipates its current cash resources, together with existing
sources of liquidity and funds generated from operations, will provide adequate
cash to fund the Company's anticipated cash needs at least through the next 12
months as well as its long term liquidity needs.

STRATEGIC ALLIANCES

      On November 12, 1999, Novell, Inc. purchased 3,294,893 shares of the
Company's common stock for a purchase price of $100 million, and the Company
agreed to issue Novell a warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company's
common stock, with an exercise price of $35.875 per share (the "Warrant"). In
addition, the Company and Novell entered into a global alliance agreement. These
transactions are intended to accelerate the deployment of the Novell Directory
Services (NDS) in enterprise and e-Business solutions for mid-sized businesses.
Under the global alliance agreement, the Company has agreed to establish a
solutions deployment center and to train at least 600 consultants in NDS and
related Novell solutions. The Warrant will become exercisable only if the
Company fails to meet certain milestones under the global alliance agreement.

      As a result of the Company's merger with USWeb/CKS, the Company assumed
a preexisting strategic alliance signed in September 1999 between USWeb/CKS
and with Microsoft Corporation. The alliance was formed to assist in the
development of the Internet framework ("iFrame"), a standardized architecture
for developing integrated e-business solutions. Under terms of the Alliance,
Microsoft will provide the Company with a non-refundable $67.5 million, to be
paid over twelve months, to offset the costs necessary for the development,
marketing and training needed to bring iFrame and associated application
services to market. In addition, Microsoft will provide a joint technology
application services lab to assist in such development and will provide
certain other funding including a joint marketing fund. As part of the
agreement, Microsoft purchased, for $15.0 million, a warrant allowing
Microsoft to acquire shares of USWeb/CKS common stock. This warrant was
assumed by Whittman-Hart and became a warrant to purchase up to 865,000
shares of marchFIRST common stock at an exercise price of $31.90 per share,
which represented the fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of
the alliance. The warrant is exercisable anytime prior to its expiration in
September 2004. Should the Company be successful in developing iFrame and its
associated applications, the Company will pay to Microsoft a royalty,
beginning in July 2001, equal to 8.9% of such revenues, if any. The royalty
will continue until the earlier of December 31, 2007, or the aggregate
royalty paid totals $105.0 million. The agreement also requires a repayment
of the $67.5 million if the agreement is terminated.

ACQUISITIONS

      On March 9, 1999, the Company acquired the Waterfield Technology Group
("Waterfield") a Boston-based IT services firm and strategic business partner of
Kurt Salmon and Associates, a global consulting firm, for 576,074 shares of the
Company's common stock. Headquarted in Lexington, Massachusetts, with a branch

development. They had extensive experience with Java and Java-based tools,
Powerbuilder and the Microsoft suite of products. This business combination
was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests combination and, accordingly, the
Company's historical consolidated financial statements have been restated to
include the accounts and results of operations of Waterfield for all periods
presented.

      On May 20, 1999, the Company issued 474,650 of its common shares in
exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock of POV Partners, Inc.
("POV") an Ohio-based IT services firm. Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, with
offices in Phoenix, Arizona, and Charlotte, North Carolina, POV had
approximately 90 employees and provided a broad range of business strategy
and IT services including Internet-enabled application development and
electronic commerce solutions. This business combination has been accounted
for as a pooling-of-interests combination. The stockholders' equity and
operations of POV 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.

      On August 27, 1999, the Company issued 1,145,796 shares of the Company's
common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding stock of the BALR
Corporation ("BALR"), an Oakbrook, Illinois-based IT services firm. BALR had
approximately 100 employees who designed systems and provided technical
consulting services. BALR's services included e-Business and Web-enabled systems
development, relational database management and client-server application
development. This business combination was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests combination and, accordingly, the Company's historical
consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the accounts and
results of operations of BALR for all periods presented.

      On November 12, 1999, the Company issued 1,098,221 shares of its common
stock in exchange for all of the outstanding stock of the Four Points Digital,
L.L.C. ("Four Points"), a Chicago, Illinois-based IT services firm with an
office if San Francisco, California. The approximately 80 employees specialized
in digital marketing including interactive advertising using rich media, online
site development and online media buying. This business combination was
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests combination and, accordingly, the
Company's historical consolidated financial statements have been restated to
include the accounts and results of operations of Four Points for all periods
presented.

      On November 27, 1999, the Company acquired Fulcrum Solutions, Ltd.
("Fulcrum"), a London, England-based IT services firm, further expanding its
European presence. The Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock and
stock options of Fulcrum in exchange for $2,193,857 in cash and 360,869 shares
of the Company's common stock. In addition to its London headquarters, Fulcrum
operated offices in Manchester, England; Edinburgh, Scotland; and New York City.
Its approximately 180 professionals designed systems and provided technical
consulting services. The firm specialized in Oracle-based e-Business solutions
including customer relationship management; enterprise-wide Internet transaction
systems in sales and marketing, manufacturing, financial and human resources;
business intelligence, and data migration and integration. The acquisition has
been accounted for by the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the
results of operations of Fulcrum have been included in the Company's
consolidated financial statements from November 27, 1999.

      On March 1, 2000, the Company and USWeb/CKS completed a merger. Under the
terms of the merger agreement, approximately 82,431,300 shares of Whittman-Hart
common stock were exchanged for all the outstanding common stock of USWeb/CKS.
In addition, employee options



                                     15


<PAGE>


and warrants to purchase shares of USWeb/CKS common stock were assumed by
Whittman-Hart and became options to purchase approximately 34,010,426 shares
of the Company's common stock and warrants to purchase approximately
2,058,700 shares of USWeb/CKS common stock. These amounts reflect an exchange
ratio of 0.865 of a share of Whittman-Hart common stock for each share of
USWeb/CKS common stock. This transaction was accounted for as a purchase
business combination in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations." The total consideration for the
transaction was valued at approximately $7.1 billion, which includes the
value of common stock issued in the merger, options and warrants, and other
direct acquisition costs.

YEAR 2000

     The Company had identified three issues related to Year 2000 compliance;
first was the effect on internal information systems, second were issues related
to vendors performing services for the Company, and finally, were issues related
to consulting activities performed by the Company.

     The Company replaced its existing internal information systems in the
fourth quarter of 1999. The system is currently operating without any
significant interruptions and the Company is not aware of any Year 2000 related
problems associated with the system. The cost of this implementation did not
have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations or
financial condition.

     The Company has relationships with several vendors that provide
administration of compensation and related employee benefits and other vendors
that perform banking and treasury services. The Company completed an evaluation
of the state of readiness of these vendors and it believes that the vendors are
currently Year 2000 compliant. Also, the Company is not aware of any significant
issues relating to the Year 2000 compliance of its vendors. The cost to the
Company in the event of non-compliance with Year 2000 issues by any of these
third parties is not expected to have material impact on the Company's result of
operations or its financial condition.

     To date, the Company has not experienced any material adverse effect on
the demand for its services as a result of uncertainty relating to, or
diminished functionality of systems resulting from the passage of the Year
2000. The Company provides solutions for IT systems that are critical to
companies' operations. Business interruptions, loss or corruption of data or
other major problems resulting from the failure of a client's IT system to
process Year 2000 data correctly could have significant adverse consequences
to that client. The Company cannot currently predict whether or to what
extent there will be any legal claims brought against the Company or whether
there will be any other material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition or the results of operations, as a result of any such
adverse consequences to its clients.

RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards "SFAS" No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137,
is effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending December 31, 2000,
but may be adopted in earlier periods. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The
Company does not believe that SFAS No. 133 will have a significant impact on its
financial statements.



                                     16

      Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44 "FIN" No. 44,
"Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," an
interpretation of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, is effective for
financial statements beginning after July 1, 2000. The company does not believe
FIN No. 44 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements that reflect
marchFIRST's current expectations about its future operating results,

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      At March 31, 2000, the Company maintained investments in marketable
securities. The securities are classified as available for sale on the
consolidated balance sheet at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of applicable
deferred income taxes. As of March 31, 2000, the fair value of the Company's
marketable securities portfolio was $209.9 million, all of which was invested in
equity and debt securities.

      As a result of the merger with USWeb/CKS, the Company assumed certain
additional risks, including changes in interest rates affecting the return on
its investments and, to a lesser extent, risks associated with foreign currency
fluctuations. In the normal course of business, the Company establishes policies
and procedures to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and
foreign currency values.



                                     17


<PAGE>


      INTEREST RATE RISK. The Company's exposure to interest rate risks results
primarily from its short-term investments. To minimize exposure to interest rate
risks, the Company invests predominately in instruments that are highly liquid,
are of investment grade and generally have maturities of less than one year. The
Company intends to make such funds readily available for operating purposes. At
March 31, 2000, the Company had investments with maturities and weighted-average
interest rates as follows (in thousands):

      FOREIGN CURRENCY RISKS. As of March 31, 2000, the Company had operating
subsidiaries located in several countries including the United Kingdom, Germany,
France, Canada, Switzerland, Spain, Australia, and South Africa. These
subsidiaries operate primarily in the functional currency of their individual
countries. As a result, the Company does not have exposure to significant
foreign currency risk related to the ongoing operations of these subsidiaries.
