                                        Netsmart Technologies, Inc.
                                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(1)  In the  opinion  of  the  Company,  the  accompanying  unaudited  financial
statements  contain  all  adjustments   (consisting  of  only  normal  recurring
accruals)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position of the Company as
of September 30, 1998 and the results of its  operations  for the three and nine
month periods ended  September 30, 1998 and 1997 and its cash flows for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. The results of operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

(2) The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Notes 1 and
2 to the Company's  consolidated  financial  statements as filed in its December
31, 1997 Form 10-K.

At the close of business on  September  14, 1998 a one for three  reverse  split
became effective. All share and per share data have been adjusted to reflect the
one for three reverse split.

(3) During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, stock options to purchase 8,922
were exercised and the Company  received gross proceeds of $8,325.  As a result,
Common Stock and additional paid in capital of Common Stock increased by $89 and
$8,236 respectively.

Pursuant to the Johnson Computing  Systems  agreement,  the Company  repurchased
from Johnson Computing  Systems,  5,333 shares of Common Stock for $60,000.  The
shares are treated as treasury shares.

(4) Loss per share - Loss per share is computed  by  dividing  the net income or
loss for the period by the weighted  average  number of shares of common  stock.
The  Common  stock  equivalents  are  assumed  converted  to common  stock  when
dilutive. During periods in which losses were incurred, common stock equivalents
were excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock because
their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

(5) During the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1998,  the  Company  discontinued  its
CarteSmart division. On June 30, 1998, the Company sold this division to Granite
Technologies, Inc. ("Granite"), a corporation formed by the former management of
such division. Granite issued to the Company its $500,000 promissory note and an
equity interest in Granite.  Granite also agreed to pay certain royalties to the
Company  and  granted  the  Company a license  with  respect  to the  CarteSmart
software.

As a result of the  discontinuation  of the SmartCarte  division,  the financial
statements  for the nine and three months ended  September  30, 1997,  have been
restated to reflect the net loss from such division as a loss from  discontinued
operations.

Because Granite has no operating history and, at the time of the agreement,  did
not have any  significant  capitalization,  at September  30, 1998,  the Company
placed a 100%  reserve  against  Granite's  $500,000  note,  and the note is not
reflected as an asset on the Company's June 30, 1998 balance sheet.

(6) In October  1998 an action  against the Company by Onecard  Health  Services
Corporation   and  its  affiliates   was  dismissed.   The  action  had  alleged
misappropriation by the Company of Onecard's trade secrets, corporate assets and
corporate opportunities.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

Results of operations

Nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

Effective  June 30, 1998 the Company  discontinued  its Smart Card  division and
accounted  for the  operations  of this  division as a  discontinued  operation.
Accordingly,  references to the Company's  continuing  operations  relate to its
behavioral health  information  systems ("BHIS") business which accounts for the
Company's entire operations.

The  Company's  revenue  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1998  (the
"September 1998 period") was $8,881,000,  an increase of $3,939,000 or 80%, from
the revenue for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 (the  "September  1997
period") which was $4,942,000.

The  largest  component  of revenue in the  September  1998  period was  turnkey
systems  labor  revenue which  increased to  $2,349,000  from  $1,463,000 in the
September 1997 period, reflecting a 61% increase. This increase is substantially
the  result of growth in the BHIS  backlog  and the  ability  of the  Company to
provide the staff  necessary  to generate  additional  revenue.  The data center
(service  bureau)  revenue  increased to $1,667,000 in the September 1998 period
from $1,567,000 in the September 1997 period, reflecting an increase of 6%. This
increase  was  substantially  the result of a special  project  performed  for a
client in the first quarter of 1998.  License revenue increased to $1,791,000 in
the  September  1998  period from  $214,000 in the  September  1997  period,  an
increase  of  738%.  License  revenue  is  generated  as  part of a sale of BHIS
pursuant to a contract or purchase  order that  includes  delivery of the system
and  maintenance.  Revenue from third party  hardware and software  increased to
$1,378,000  in the September  1998 period from  $724,000 in the  September  1997
period,  an increase of 90%. Sales of third party hardware and software are made
in connection with the sales of turnkey systems.  Maintenance  revenue increased
to $1,010,000 in the September  1998 period from $975,000 in the September  1997
period,  reflecting  an increase of 4%.  Revenue from the sales of the Company's
small  turnkey  division  (formerly  its methadone  division)  division  totaled
$686,000  in the  September  1998  period.  There was no  revenue  for the small
turnkey division in the September 1997 period.

Revenue from contracts from government  agencies  represented 48% of revenue for
the September 1998 period and 40% of revenue for the September 1997 period.

Gross  profit  increased  to  $3,441,000  in  the  September  1998  period  from
$1,306,000 in the September 1997 period,  a 163%  increase.  The increase in the
gross profit was substantially the result of the increased license revenue which
provides higher margins.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses were $2,301,000 in the September
1998  period,  an  increase of 14% from the  $2,015,000  in the  September  1997
period.  This increase was substantially the result of an increase in commission
expenses  resulting  from  increased  revenue as well as increases in, sales and
marketing salaries,  advertising and related sales expenses which were partially
offset by a decrease in employee expenses in the administrative  area as well as
other miscellaneous expenses.

The  Company  incurred  research  and  development  expenses  of $678,000 in the
September 1998 period.  These costs were related to the Company's BHIS products.
There were no such costs in the September 1997 period.

Interest  expense was  $270,000 in the  September  1998  period,  an increase of
$31,000 or 13%, from the $240,000 in the September 1997 period. This increase is
the result of higher borrowings during the September 1998 period.

                                  -11-

The most  significant  component of the interest  expense on an ongoing basis is
the  interest  payable to the  Company's  asset-based  lender.  The Company pays
interest  on such  loans at a rate equal to prime plus 8 1/2% plus a fee of 5/8%
of the face  amount of the  invoice.  Effective  October 1, 1998 the Company has
amended the terms of its  agreement  with its asset based lender and has reduced
the interest rate from prime plus 8 1/2% to prime plus 5% and has eliminated the
5/8% fee previously paid on the face amount of each invoice.

Related party  administrative  expense was $45,000 in the September  1998 period
and  $135,000 in the  September  1997 period.  These  charges are pursuant to an
agreement with the Company's principal  stockholder to provide general business,
management and financial consulting services for a monthly fee of $15,000.  This
agreement was mutually terminated, effective April 1, 1998.

Loss from the Company's  discontinued  operations,  the smart card division, was
$381,000 in the September  1998 period,  a decrease of $440,000 or 54%, from the
$821,000 in the September 1997 period.

As a  result  of the  foregoing  factors,  the  Company  incurred  a net loss of
$234,000,  or $.08 per share,  in the September 1998 period,  as compared with a
net loss of $1,904,000 or $.84 per share, in the September 1997 period.


Three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997

The  Company's  revenue  for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1998 (the
"September 1998 quarter") was $3,540,000, an increase of $1,729,000 or 95%, from
the revenue for the three months ended  September 30, 1997 (the  "September 1997
quarter") which was $1,811,000.

The  largest  component  of revenue in the  September  1998  quarter was turnkey
systems  labor  revenue  which  increased  to  $1,015,000  from  $650,000 in the
September   1997  quarter,   reflecting  a  56%   increase.   This  increase  is
substantially  the result of growth in the BHIS  backlog  and the ability of the
Company to provide the staff necessary to generate additional  revenue.  License
revenue  increased to $760,000 in the September 1998 quarter from $68,000 in the
September 1997 quarter,  an increase of 1,008%.  License revenue is generated as
part of a sale of BHIS  pursuant to a contract or purchase  order that  includes
delivery of the system and maintenance. The data center (service bureau) revenue
decreased  to  $491,000  in the  September  1998  quarter  from  $547,000 in the
September  1997  quarter,  reflecting  a  decrease  of 10%.  This  decrease  was
substantially  the  result of a special  project  performed  for a client in the
September 1997 quarter. Revenue from third party hardware and software increased
to $681,000 in the September  1998 quarter from  $235,000 in the September  1997
quarter,  an increase of 189%.  Sales of third party  hardware  and software are
made in  connection  with the  sales of  turnkey  systems.  Maintenance  revenue
increased  to  $348,000  in the  September  1998  quarter  from  $309,000 in the
September 1997 quarter, reflecting an increase of 13%. Revenue from the sales of
the Company's small turnkey division  (formerly its methadone  division) totaled
$244,000  in the  September  1998  quarter.  There was no revenue  for the small
turnkey division in the September 1997 quarter.

Revenue from contracts from government  agencies  represented 57% of revenue for
the September 1998 quarter and 40% of revenue for the September 1997 quarter.

Gross profit increased to $1,344,000 in the September 1998 quarter from $478,000
in the September 1997 quarter, a 181% increase. The increase in the gross profit
was  substantially  the result of the increased  license  revenue which provides
higher margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $924,000 in the September 1998
quarter, an increase of 32% from

                                        -12-

<PAGE>



the $698,000 in the September 1997 quarter.  This increase was substantially the
result of an increase in commissions expense resulting from increased revenue as
well as increases in sales and marketing  salaries,  advertising,  related sales
expenses and  administrative  salaries which were partially offset by a decrease
in employee expenses in the administrative  area as well as other  miscellaneous
expenses.

The Company  incurred product  development  expense of $138,000 in the September
1998 quarter.  These costs were related to the Company's  BHIS  products.  There
were no such costs on the September 1997 quarter.

Interest  expense was $121,000 in the  September  1998  quarter,  an increase of
$32,000  or 36%,  from the  $89,000  in the  September  1997  quarter.  The most
significant  component  of the  interest  expense  on an  ongoing  basis  is the
interest payable to the Company's  asset-based lender. The Company pays interest
on such  loans at a rate  equal to prime  plus 8 1/2%  plus a fee of 5/8% of the
face amount of the  invoice.  Effective  October 1, 1998 the Company has amended
the terms of its  agreement  with its asset  based  lender and has  reduced  the
interest  rate from prime plus 8 1/2% to prime  plus 5% and has  eliminated  the
5/8% fee previously paid on the face amount of each invoice.

There was no related party administrative  expense in the September 1998 quarter
and $45,000 in the  September  1997  quarter.  These  charges are pursuant to an
agreement with the Company's principal  stockholder to provide general business,
management and financial consulting services for a monthly fee of $15,000.  This
agreement was mutually terminated, effective April 1, 1998.

Residual losses from the Company's  discontinued  operations were $38,000 in the
September 1998 quarter,  a decrease of $273,000 or 88%, from the $311,000 in the
September 1997 quarter.  These losses reflect expenses  incurred in winding down
this operation.

As a result of the  foregoing  factors,  the  Company  generated a net income of
$122,000,  or $.04, per share in the September 1998 quarter,  as compared with a
net loss of $665,000, or $.29, loss per share in the September 1997 quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had a working  capital  deficit of $526,000 at September 30, 1998 as
compared to a working  capital deficit of $537,000 at December 31, 1997, and the
Company's cash position  decreased from $855,000 at December 31, 1997 to $28,000
at September 30, 1998. The decrease in working capital for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 was  substantially  due to the net loss incurred for the nine
months ended  September  30, 1998 as well as the purchase of computer  equipment
and to a lesser extent, treasury shares.

The Company's  principal  source of funds,  other than  revenue,  is an accounts
receivable  financing agreement with an asset based lender whereby it may borrow
up to 80% of eligible  accounts  receivable up to a maximum of $1,250,000.  This
maximum was increased to $1.5 million  effective August 1, 1998. As of September
30, 1998, the  outstanding  borrowings  under this facility was  $1,064,000.  At
September  30,  1998,  the  maximum  amount  available  under this  formula  was
$1,206,000.  During the quarter, with the consent of the asset-based lender, the
Company from time to time exceeded the maximum  borrowing  level provided in its
agreement with the asset-based  lender.  Effective  October 1, 1998, the Company
amended the terms of its agreement with its asset based lender.  Pursuant to the
revised  agreement,  the  Company  can  borrow  up to 80% of the  amount  of its
qualified accounts receivable up to a maximum of $2 million.

At September 30, 1998,  accounts  receivable and costs and estimated  profits in
excess  of  interim  billings  were  approximately  $4.8  million,  representing
approximately 146 days of revenue based on annualizing the revenue for

                                                    -13-

<PAGE>



the nine months ended  September  30, 1998,  although no assurance  can be given
that revenue will continue at the same level as the nine month period.  Accounts
receivable  at September  30, 1998  increased  by $449,000  from  $2,182,000  at
December 31, 1997 to  $2,631,000  at September  30, 1998.  The Company  believes
that, with the elimination of expenses relating to the smart card business,  the
Company's cash on hand, the increased line with its asset based lender  together
with revenue from its BHIS business, will be sufficient to enable it to continue
to operate at least through the end of 1998 without additional  funding.  If the
Company  continues  to grow at its  existing  rate into 1999 and beyond,  it may
require  significant  additional  funding.  The Company is  therefore  exploring
various  long term  funding  possibilities  with  several  banks and  investment
banking  organizations.  No  assurances  can be given as to the  ability  of the
Company to obtain  additional  financing and its inability to do so could have a
material adverse affect on the Company's ability to grow.
