INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



The Board of Directors and Shareholders
W.R. Biles & Associates, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of W.R. Biles & Associates, Inc.
(the Company) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of
operations, capital deficiency and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of W.R. Biles & Associates, Inc. at December
31, 1996 and 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the

 1.  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     W.R. Biles & Associates, Inc. (Biles or the Company) provides process
     information management solutions to companies in the chemicals,
     pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, semiconductor and consumer products
     industries. The Company also provides consulting, training and support
     services to its customers. On September 30, 1997, certain assets of the
     Company were acquired by Simulation Sciences Inc. (Note 9).

     Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash equivalents are defined as short-term,
     highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

     Accounts Receivable - The Company sells its products and services to
     various companies across several industries. The Company performs ongoing
     credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require
     collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses and
     such losses have been within management's expectations.

     Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost.
     Depreciation and amortization are provided using the double declining
     balance method over the estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven
     years. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation
     expense was $192,000 and $166,052 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
     1995, respectively.

     Long-Lived Assets - The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition
     of long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
     Standards (SFAS) No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
     Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. In accordance with SFAS
     No. 121, long-lived assets to be held are reviewed for events or changes in
     circumstances which indicate that their carrying value may not be
     recoverable. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of
     long-lived assets to determine whether or not an impairment to such value
     has occurred and as of December 31, 1996, no such impairment was noted.

     Software Development Costs - Development costs related to new software
     products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as
     incurred until technological feasibility has been established. After
     technological feasibility is established, any additional costs would be
     capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of
     Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed. Because the
     Company believes its current process for developing software is essentially
     completed concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility,
     no costs have been capitalized as of December 31, 1996 or 1995.

     Revenue Recognition - Revenues from software licenses are recognized upon
     shipment of the product, provided that no significant vendor or
     post-contract support obligations remain and that collection of the
     resulting receivable is deemed probable by management. Service revenue
     includes training, consulting, and customer support, including maintenance
     

                                                                               6

     agreements. Revenues from training and consulting are recognized at the
     time the service is performed. Customer support revenues are recognized
     ratably over the term of the related contract, generally one year. 

     Customer Concentration - Although the Company currently sells its products
     to a variety of customers, ten customers account for approximately 49% and
     57% of the Company's sales in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Additionally,
     the top three customers represented approximately 26% and 28% of sales in
     1996 and 1995, respectively. Therefore, the loss of, or a reduction in
     sales to, any such customers could materially affect the Company's
     business, operating results and financial position.

     Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed for federal purposes
     under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
     Accordingly, current and future taxable income of the Company is treated
     as if it were distributed to the shareholder who is responsible for the
     payment of taxes thereon. In accordance with the provisions of the Texas
     Franchise Tax Law regarding corporations, the Company pays taxes at a
     rate of 4 1/2% of taxable income. As the Company has incurred net losses
     for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, no taxes have been paid.

     The Company provides for deferred state income taxes based on income
     applicable to transactions which affect income for financial reporting and
     state franchise tax purposes in different years.

     Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock-based awards to
     employees, using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting
     Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
     Employees.

     Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
     of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
     expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from
     those estimates.

     Recent Accounting Pronouncements - For the years beginning after January 1,
     1998, the Company will adopt SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income
     and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information. The Company is reviewing the impact of such statements on its
     financial statements.


                                                                               7

 2.  LINE OF CREDIT

          The Company had a line of credit agreement of up to $750,000 with a
          bank which expired April 3, 1997. The line of credit agreement
          stipulated borrowings not to exceed specified percentages of eligible
          accounts receivable. Interest is payable monthly at the bank's
          reference rate, plus .25% (9.75% at December 31, 1996). The line of
          credit is collateralized by accounts receivable and guaranteed by the
          Company's majority shareholder. The Company is subject to a minimum
          net tangible worth covenant which it was not in compliance with at
          December 31, 1996. However, during 1997, the Company repaid the bank
          all amounts outstanding under the agreement.


 3.  NOTES PAYABLE

     Notes payable consist of the following at December 31:

 5.  CAPITAL DEFICIENCY

     Total cash distributions charged against accumulated deficit include
     payments of $81,038 and $0 in 1996 and 1995, respectively, made to the
     Company's shareholders as a form of supplemental dividends, as well as to
     pay income taxes related to corporate earnings passed through to
     shareholders.

     Stock Option Information - At December 31, 1996, the Company had three
     stock option plans in effect. The 1985 Stock Option Plan, the 1988 Stock
     Option Plan and the 1990 Stock Option Plan (collectively, the Plans), allow
     for the issuance of up to 60,000, 50,000 and 82,000 shares, respectively,
     of the Company's common stock to executive personnel and key employees. The
     options expire ten years after the date of grant, and options generally
     vest at 20% per year. During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, no
     options were issued under any of the Plans, and no options were outstanding
     under the 1985 and 1988 Plans. Under the terms of the 1990 Stock Option
     Plan, options to purchase 40,000 shares were outstanding and exercisable at
     $1.11 per share at December 31, 1995 and 1996. The weighted average
     remaining contractual life for the outstanding options is 2.5 years.

     As discussed in Note 1, the Company continues to account for its
     stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB
     Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related
     interpretations.

     SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires the
     disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) had the Company adopted the fair
     value method as of the beginning of fiscal 1995. Under SFAS No. 123, the
     fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use
     of option-pricing models, even though such models were developed to
     estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options
     without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company's
     stock option awards. These models also require subjective assumptions,
     including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise,
     which greatly affect the calculated values. The impact of outstanding stock
     options granted prior to 1995 is excluded from the pro forma calculation.
     As no options have been issued under the terms of the Plans in 1996 and
     1995, the impact of applying the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 to the
     Company's options has not been calculated.


 6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company leases its office facilities and certain equipment under
     various operating leases. Total rent expense was $235,865 and $256,277 for
     the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

                                                                               9

     Minimum annual lease commitments under noncancelable operating leases at
     December 31, 1996 are as follows:

                                      ========
</TABLE>



     The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the
     ordinary course of business. The litigation process is inherently uncertain
     and it is possible that the resolution of such claims and legal actions may
     adversely affect the Company. However, it is the opinion of management,
     upon the advice of legal counsel, that the ultimate disposition of these
     matters will not materially affect the Company's financial position.


7.   INCOME TAXES

     The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
     Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires the recognition of
     deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future consequences of events
     that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax
     returns. Measurement of the deferred items is based on enacted tax laws. In
     the event the future consequence of differences between the financial
     reporting bases and the tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities
     result in a deferred tax asset, SFAS 109 requires an evaluation of the
     probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such
     asset. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded
     when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
     tax asset will not be realized.

     Deferred state income taxes are primarily attributable to state net
     operating losses and to the use of different methods of reporting income
     for financial statement and tax reporting purposes. Differences between the
     Company's effective tax rate and the state statutory rate are due to the
     Company's treatment as an S Corporation.

     As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company has a net deferred tax asset
     of approximately $54,000 and $34,000, respectively, with a valuation
     allowance of $54,000 and $34,000, respectively, comprised of the following:



                                                                              10

8.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

     The Company maintains a 401(k) and profit sharing plan (the Plan) which
     provides for eligible employees (as defined) to make voluntary
     contributions to the Plan to be matched by the Company up to a specified
     percentage. The Company may also make additional discretionary
     contributions under the terms of the Plan. The Company's matching
     contributions are fully vested after six years of employment with the
     Company. During the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company did
     not contribute to the Plan.


9.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On September 30, 1997, certain net assets of the Company were acquired by
     Simulation Sciences Inc. pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase
     Agreement (the Agreement). Under the terms of the Agreement, the purchase
     price for the net assets was approximately $5,600,000 including acquisition
     costs. The purchase price consisted of $2,500,000 in cash and the
     assumption of approximately $2,700,000 in net liabilities. Of the cash
     portion of the purchase price, $625,000 will be held in escrow for up to
     one year to cover any post acquisition contingencies. Simulation Sciences
     Inc. intends to integrate and assimilate the operations of the Company,
     which it purchased, into its on-going operations over the next twelve
     months. In conjunction with the Agreement, the Company has terminated its
     401(k) profit sharing plan.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM JANUARY 1, 1997 TO SEPTEMBER 29, 1997
AND THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The interim condensed financial statements included herein have been
     prepared by W.R. Biles and Associates (Biles or the Company) without audit.
     Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted; nevertheless, the
     management of the Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate
     to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
     statements and notes thereto for the Company for the years ended December
     31, 1996 and 1995, included in this Form 8K-A. In the opinion of
     management, the condensed financial statements included herein reflect all
     adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
     present fairly the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
     period from January 1, 1997 to September 29, 1997 and the nine-month period
     ended September 30, 1996. The results of operations for the interim periods
     are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full
     year.

2.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On September 30, 1997, certain net assets of the Company were acquired by
     Simulation Sciences Inc. pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase
     Agreement (the Agreement). Under the terms of the Agreement, the purchase
     price for the net assets was approximately $5,600,000, including
     acquisition costs. The purchase price consisted of $2,500,000 in cash and
     the assumption of approximately $2,700,000 in net liabilities. Of the cash
     portion of the purchase price, $625,000 will be held in escrow for up to
     one year to cover any post acquisition contingencies. Simulation Sciences
     Inc. intends to integrate and assimilate the operations of the Company,
     which it purchased, into its on-going operations over the next twelve
     months. In conjunction with the Agreement, the Company has terminated its
     401(k) profit sharing plan.

                            PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

INTRODUCTION

     The following unaudited pro forma financial data is based upon the
historical financial statements of Simulation Sciences Inc. ("the Company") for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996
and W.R. Biles & Associates, Inc. ("Biles") for the period from January 1, 1997
to September 29, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, and has been
prepared to present, on a pro forma basis, the unaudited combined results of
operations of the companies. The balance sheet of the Company includes the
effects of the purchase of Biles which was consummated on September 30, 1997.
Therefore, a pro forma balance sheet is not considered necessary. The unaudited
pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 gives effect to the acquisition as if
it had been completed as of January 1, 1996 using the purchase method of
accounting for business combinations.

     The net purchase price of approximately $5,581,000 (which includes 
transaction costs of approximately $350,000) was allocated to tangible
assets acquired of $796,000, intangible assets of $1,581,000, liabilities
assumed of $3,744,000 and in-process research and development of $4,000,000.

     The pro forma financial data is provided for comparative purposes only and
does not purport to represent the actual financial position or results of
operations of the Company that actually would have been obtained if the
acquisition had been consummated on the date specified, nor is it necessarily
indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved in the future.

     Adjustments to the pro forma operating results for the acquisition include
changes in depreciation and amortization to reflect the basis of assets
acquired; changes to cost of sales to reflect the amortization of developed
technology; changes in interest expense to reflect debt repaid at the time of
the Acquisition; a change to reflect the write-off of in-process research and
development at the time of acquisition; and changes to the provision for income
taxes to reflect reductions resulting from the pro forma income adjustments.
The pro forma financial data is based on certain assumptions and adjustments
described in the notes thereto and should be read in conjunction therewith.
