THE REGISTRY, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 


1.   NATURE OF  BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     
     Nature of Business     
     The Registry, Inc. ("TRI" or "the Company") is an information technology
     ("IT") professional services firm providing IT consultants on a contract
     basis to organizations nationwide with complex IT operations.  Offices are
     maintained in 14 states.

     Basis of Consolidation
     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
     accounts of The Registry, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as
     the accounts of a real estate trust which is substantially controlled by
     the Company, subsequent to the renegotiation of certain lease terms on
     September 19, 1995.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been
     eliminated.

     Interim Financial Statements
     The condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 28, 1996 and
     condensed consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the
     three month periods ended September 28, 1996 and September 30, 1995 are
     unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments
     (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
     presentation of results for these interim periods.  Certain information and
     footnote disclosures normally included in the Company's annual consolidated
     financial statements have been condensed or omitted.  The results of
     operations for the interim period ended September 28, 1996 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
     The balance sheet at June 29, 1996 contained herein has been derived from
     the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not
     include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
     accounting principles for complete financial statements.  These interim
     condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
     with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June
     29, 1996 which are contained in the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form
     10-K.

     Results of operations for the quarter ended September 28, 1996 and
     September 30, 1995 are for 13 weeks and 14 weeks, respectively.

     Reclassifications
     Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been
     reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

     Pro forma income information
     The pro forma information included for the period ended September 30, 1995
     is presented as if the Company's ARI subsidiary had been a C corporation
     subject to federal and state income taxes throughout the period.

     Net income per share
     Net income per share and pro forma net income per share have been computed
     by dividing net income or pro forma net income by the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding and common equivalent shares which may
     be issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, computed using the
     treasury stock method.  Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission's
     Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83, stock options granted during the twelve
     months prior to the initial filing of the Company's Registration Statement
     on Form S-1 have been included in the calculation of common equivalent
     shares using the treasury stock method, as if they were outstanding as of
     the beginning of the period presented.

     Acquisition of subsidiary
     On August 16, 1996 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, ARI,
     acquired all of the outstanding stock of Morris Information Systems, Inc.,
     a Texas corporation ("MIS"), for $2,500,000 in cash plus amounts up

THE REGISTRY, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     to an aggregate of $700,000 contingent upon the operating results of MIS
     during the two years following the acquisition. In addition, the Company
     will pay a total of $300,000 over the next two years to the former
     stockholder of MIS in consideration for a consulting and noncompetition
     agreement. MIS is an information technology consulting firm performing
     services similar to those of the Company. The acquisition has been
     accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the purchase price has been
     allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their
     estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The excess of the
     consideration paid over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired,
     approximately $2,303,000, has been recorded as goodwill, which will be
     amortized over its estimated useful life of thirty years. The pro forma
     results of operations, assuming that the acquisition of MIS occurred at the
     beginning of the periods ended September 28, 1996 and September 30, 1995,
     would not materially differ from TRI's reported results of operations.

2.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On November 1, 1996, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, ARI,
     acquired all of the outstanding stock of Sun-Tek Consultants, Inc., a
     Florida corporation ("Sun-Tek"), for $1,900,000 in cash. Sun-Tek is an
     information technology consulting firm based in Orlando, Florida performing
     services similar to those of the Company. The acquisition will be accounted
     for as a purchase and, accordingly, the purchase price will be allocated to
     the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair
     values as of the date of acquisition. The excess of the consideration over
     the estimated fair value of net assets acquired will be recorded as
     goodwill.

</TABLE>
     THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 28, 1996 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

     Revenue.   Revenue increased 49.3% to $47.3 million for the first quarter
     of 1997 from $31.7 million in the first quarter of 1996.  This increase was
     attributable to an increase in revenue from professional services and to a
     lesser extent from additional service offerings provided by the Company's
     practices.  The increase in revenue from professional services was
     primarily due to the growth in sales within existing offices and the
     continued maturation of newer branch offices resulting in a greater number
     of IT consultants placed with the Company's clients during the period.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 51.2% to $12.6 million for the first
     quarter of 1997 from $8.3 million in the comparable prior period. As a
     percentage of revenue, gross profit increased to 26.6% for the period
     compared to 26.3% for the comparable prior period. This increase was
     attributable primarily to increases in the number of relatively higher
     margin projects and specialized practice engagements.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and
     administrative expenses increased by 35.0% to $9.7 million for the first
     quarter of 1997 from $7.2 million in the comparable prior period.  As a
     percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses
     decreased to 20.5% from 22.7% for the comparable prior period.  This
     decrease was attributable primarily to the growth in revenue during the
     period in which there was limited expansion into new markets.

     Interest and Other Expense, Net. Interest and other expense, net, decreased
     significantly from the first quarter of 1996 resulting in income of $49,000
     for the current period as compared to expense of $470,000 in the comparable
     prior period. This decrease was a result of the repayment of amounts
     outstanding under the Company's line of credit and certain other
     obligations in June of 1996 upon receipt of the proceeds from the Company's
     initial public offering. The

     
                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     Company completed the first quarter of 1997 with cash and cash equivalents
     of $5.3 million invested in short term U.S. treasury instruments.


     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On June 10, 1996 the Company completed its initial public offering of the
     sale of 2,230,000 shares of common stock.  The Company received $34,498,000
     from the sale of shares, net of underwriting discounts and expenses
     associated with the offering.  The Company has used the proceeds to pay off
     outstanding balances under the line of credit and other debt instruments,
     to finance capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes,
     including working capital.

     The Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased $6,707,000 during the
     first quarter as receivables increased by $5,102,000, $2,476,000 was
     expended for the acquisition of Morris Information Systems, Inc. and
     $1,242,000 in capital expenditures were made. These cash expenditures were
     offset by increases in accrued expenses of $1,447,000 during the quarter.
     The working capital balance decreased slightly in the quarter to
     $32,660,000 while the Company maintained a 4.5:1 current ratio.

     The Company continues to maintain a $25 million revolving advance facility
     with BNY Financial Corporation (the "Line of Credit"). The Line of Credit
     allows the Company to borrow the lesser of the sum of 85% of eligible
     receivables (approximately $26.4 million as of September 28, 1996) or $25
     million. The Line of Credit is secured by all of the Company's assets and
     contains certain restrictive covenants, including limitations on amounts of
     loans the Company may extend to officers and employees, the incurrence of
     additional debt and the payment of dividends on the Company's common or
     preferred stock. Additionally the Line of Credit requires the maintenance
     of certain financial ratios, including minimum tangible net worth and a
     limit of total liabilities to total tangible net worth. The Company was on
     September 28, 1996 and is currently in compliance with these financial
     covenants.

     As of September 28, 1996, the principal amount outstanding under the Line
     of Credit was $10,000 with availability of $25 million.  The Line of Credit
     bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.5% or the Bank of New York alternate
     base rate plus 0.5% at the Company's option.

     In connection with previous acquisitions, the Company may be obligated to
     make certain contingent payments during the next several years.  The
     Company does not believe that such payments would have a material impact on
     the Company's liquidity, results of operations or capital requirements.

     On November 1, 1996, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, ARI,
     acquired all of the outstanding stock of Sun-Tek Consultants, Inc. ("Sun-
     Tek") for $1,900,000 in cash.  Sun-Tek is an information technology
     consulting firm based in Orlando, Florida performing services similar to
     those of the Company.  The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase
     and, accordingly, the purchase price will be allocated to the assets
     acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as
     of the date of acquisition.  The excess of the consideration over the
     estimated fair value of net assets acquired will be recorded as goodwill.

     CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS

     The foregoing forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.
     The Company's actual performance and results may differ materially due to
     many important factors, including, but not limited to, the Company's
     dependence on the availability of qualified IT consultants, its dependence
     on key personnel, the relatively short history of profitability, ability to
     sustain and manage growth, dependence on key clients, fluctuations in
     operating results due in part to the opening of new branch offices,
     competition, general economic conditions, and the like.  For

     additional and more comprehensive discussion of the risks associated with
     ownership of Common Stock of the Company, please see the Risk Factors
     section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. As a result of these
     and other factors, there can be no assurance that the Company will not
     experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly
     or annual basis.
