EARNINGS (LOSS)  PER COMMON SHARE

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No.128, Earnings per Share ("SFAS 128"), which specifies
the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share
("EPS"). It replaces the presentation of primary and fully diluted EPS with
basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes all dilution. It is based upon the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
The Company has adopted SFAS 128 in the quarter ended December 31, 1997 and has
restated all previously reported per share amounts to conform to the new
presentation.

A reconciliation of the basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 is as follows:

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company adopted Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" 
("SFAS 130"). SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and displaying of 
comprehensive income and its components in the Company's consolidated 
financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined in SFAS 130 as the 
change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise during the period from 
transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner sources. Total 
comprehensive income was $1,100,200 and $353,400 for the quarters ended March 
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and $2,135,600 and $467,100 for the nine 
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The primary difference 
from net income as reported is the tax effected change in the cumulative 
translation adjustment.


                                        8

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" 
("SFAS 131") which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
No. 14. This statement changes the way that publicly-held companies report 
information about operating segments as well as disclosures about products 
and services, geographic areas and major customers. Operating segments are 
defined as revenue-producing components of the enterprise, which are 
generally used internally for evaluating segment performance. SFAS 131 will 
be effective for the Company's year ending June 30, 1999 and will not affect 
the financial position or results of operations.

2.   ACQUISITIONS

In August 1998, the Company agreed to issue 56,250 shares of its common 
stock, valued at $363,200, to the former shareholders of Posnet in 
consideration for the elimination of any future earnout shares. The value of 
these shares was recorded as additional goodwill.

As described in Note 1, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital 
stock of RGB and 52.5% of the outstanding common stock of Jade in November 
1998. The remaining 47.5% of the outstanding common stock of Jade is owned by 
RGB. RGB and Jade provide complementary Wide Area Network (WAN) products and 
services to large retail and hospitality chains as well as the 
telecommunications industry.

The aggregate purchase price for the RGB and Jade capital stock consisted of 
$1,914,300 in cash (including acquistion costs of $173,200) and 257,058 shares 
of the Company's common stock. The Company may be required to issue additional 
shares of its common stock with a market value of $3,290,000 in each of 1999 
and 2000 based upon the cumulative net profits of RGB and Jade during the 
twenty-four month period ending September 30, 2000. During the quarter ended 
March 31, 1999, the Company issued 68,771 shares of its common stock at a 
value of $874,100. The acquisitions have been accounted for by the purchase 
method, and accordingly, the results of operations of RGB and Jade have been 
included with those of the Company commencing on the date of acquisition. The 
puchase price of $3,553,100 resulted in excess of acquisition costs over the 
fair value of net assets acquired of approximately $2,979,100. Such excess 
(which will increase for any contingent payments) is being amortized on a 
straight-line basis over 25 years. The final allocation of the purchase price 
may vary as additional information is obtained, and accordingly, the ultimate 
allocation may differ from those used in the unaudited consolidated financial 
statements included herein.

         Less liabilities assumed               (3,708,600)
         Less stock issued to sellers           (1,638,700)
                                               -----------

         Cash paid                             $ 1,914,300
                                               -----------
                                               -----------
</TABLE>

The results of operations of RGB and Jade prior to November 1, 1998 were not
material in relation to the Company's consolidated results of operations.

3.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On April 23, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of
Dynamic Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation ("DTI"), and the
outstanding capital stock of SB Holdings, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation
("SB"). DTI and SB provide custom Internet/Intranet software and services.

The aggregate purchase price for DTI and SB consisted of $10,000,000 in cash and
452,226 shares of the Company' s common stock valued at $4,250,000, with an
additional (i) $2,000,000 in cash and (ii) $1,000,000 of the Company's common
stock issuable upon the satisfaction of certain milestones for each of the
quarters in the fiscal year ending April 30, 2000. The acquisition has been
accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly, the results of operations
of DTI and SB will be included with those of the Company commencing on the date
of acquisition.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 
OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     Javelin Systems, Inc. (the "Company") designs, manufactures and markets 
open system touch screen point-of-sale ("POS") computers and provides POS 
systems integration services primarily for the foodservice and retail 
industries.

     Hereinafter, Javelin and its subsidiaries are referred to as the Company.

     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains certain forward-looking 
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 as 
amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended 
(the "Exchange Act"), and the Company intends that such forward-looking 
statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. The Company may 
experience significant fluctuations in future operating results due to a 
number of factors, including, among other things, the size and timing of 
customer orders, new or increased competition, delays in new product 
enhancements and new product introductions, quality control difficulties, 
changes in manufacturing systems, supplies, or vendors, changes in market 
demand, market acceptance of new products, product returns, seasonality in 
product sales, integration of acquisitions, and pricing trends in the 
industry in general, and in the specific markets in which the Company is 
active. Any of these factors could cause operating results to vary 
significantly from prior periods. Significant variability in orders during 
any period may have a material adverse impact on the Company's cash flow, and 
any significant decrease in orders could have a material adverse impact on 
the Company's results of operations and financial condition. As a result, the 
Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of 
operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as 
any indication of future performance. Fluctuations in the Company's operating 
results could cause the price of the Company's Common Stock to fluctuate 
substantially.

     Assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements involve judgments 
with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market 
conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately, 
and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. In addition, the 
business and operations of the Company are subject to substantial risks which 
increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements. In light 
of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information 
included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as 
a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or 
plans of the Company will be achieved.

(1) Expressed as a percentage of related revenues, not of total revenues.

REVENUES-PRODUCT SALES. Revenues from product sales increased by 87.5% to 
$17.5 million in 1999 compared to revenues of $9.4 million for 1998. The 
change is due to an increase in revenues relating to Javelin hardware sales 
of $3.3 million (68.1%), a decrease in revenues relating to non-Javelin 
hardware from CCI of $676,000, revenues from RGB/Jade of $2.9 million and 
revenues from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $2.7 million. The 
increase at Javelin is attributable primarily to increases in the number of 
units sold (approximately 6,250 units in 1999 compared to 2,500 in 1998) 
whereas the decresase in non-Javelin hardware revenues is attributable to a 
roll-out completed by CCI in the quarter ended March 31, 1998.


                                        12
<PAGE>

REVENUES-SERVICES. Revenues from services increased by 175.6% to $3.5 million 
in 1999 compared to revenues of $1.3 million for 1998. The change is due to a 
decrease in service revenues from CCI of $361,800 (28.1%) resulting from the 
completion of a roll-out in the quarter ended March 31, 1998, an increase in 
service revenues from RGB/Jade of $2.3 million and an increase in service 
revenues from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $311,800.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased by 98.0% to $5.7 million in 1999 
compared to a gross profit of $2.9 million in 1998. The increase is comprised 
of the folllowing:

      Product sales          $ 5.1 million       $ 2.5 million        $ 2.6 million
      Service                $ 601,700           $ 394,200            $ 207,500
</TABLE>

The change in gross profit from product sales is due to an increase in gross 
profit from the sale of Javelin hardware of $1.2 million, a decrease of 
$346,900 in gross profit from the sale of non-Javelin hardware sold by CCI, 
gross profit from RGB/Jade of $1.0 million and gross profit from the newly 
established foreign subsidiaries of $743,100. The increase at Javelin is 
attributable to the increase in the number of units sold as described above, 
offset by a decrease in average sales price of approximately $100 per unit 
and a reduction in the cost of its products due to reductions in prices from 
the Company's suppliers resulting from increased volume of purchases by the 
Company and the realization of manufacturing efficiencies. The decrease in 
gross profit of non-Javelin hardware sold by CCI is attibutable to the 
completion of a roll-out in 1998 as described above.

The change in gross profit from service revenues is due to a decrease of 
$305,500 in gross profit on services provided by CCI and gross profit on 
services provided by RGB/Jade of $267,200 and gross profit on services 
provided by the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $245,800. The 
decrease in gross profit on services provided by CCI is attibutable to the 
completion of a roll-out in the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as described 
above.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased by 
39.7% to $349,400 in 1999 compared to research and development expenses of 
$250,100 in 1998. All research and development activities are conducted by 
Javelin. The increase is primarily attributable to increased payroll costs 
due to the hiring of additional engineers and additional prototype costs for 
new products.

SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 151.4% to 
$1.1 million in 1999 compared to selling and marketing expenses of $438,100 
in 1998. The change is due to selling and marketing expenses of RGB/Jade of 
$561,300 and selling and marketing expenses of the newly established foreign 
subsidiaries of $175,300. Such expenses consisted primarily of payroll, 
tradeshow fees, and travel costs.


                                        13
<PAGE>

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased by 
46.6% to $2.3 million in 1999 compared to general and administrative expenses 
of $1.6 million in 1998. The change is due to general and administrative 
expenses from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $577,300 and 
general and administrative expenses of RGB/Jade of $224,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET. Interest expense, net, increased by $132,700 to 
$157,300 in 1999 compared to interest expense of $24,600 in 1998. The 
increase is due to borrowings under the credit facility in 1999 prior to the 
completion of the public offering in February 1999. Such borrowings were 
necessary to sustain the growth of business.

INCOME TAXES. Provision for federal, state and foreign income taxes increased 
by $401,800 to $664,700 in 1999 compared to a provision for income tax of 
$262,900 in 1998. The increase is attributable to the overall increase in 
income before income taxes of $1.2 million as well as increases in income 
from the Company's foreign subsidiaries operating in jurisdictions with lower 
income tax rates than those in the United States.

(1)  Expressed as a percentage of related revenues, not of total revenues.

REVENUES-PRODUCT SALES. Revenues from product sales increased by 157.4% to 
$43.1 million in 1999 compared to revenues of $16.8 million for 1998. The 
change is due to an increase in revenues relating to Javelin hardware sales 
of $9.0 million, revenues from CCI of $6.6 million, revenues from RGB/Jade of 
$3.9 million and revenues from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of 
$6.9 million. The increase relating to Javelin is attributable primarily to 
an increase in the number of units sold (approximately 17,700 units in 1999 
compared to 6,500 in 1998).

REVENUES-SERVICES. Revenues from services increased by 581.0% to $8.8 million 
in 1999 compared to revenues of $1.3 million for 1998. The change is due to 
service revenues from CCI of $1.8 million, service revenues from RGB/Jade of 
$4.9 million and service revenues from the newly established foreign 
subsidiaries of $704,000.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased by 207.9% to $14.1 million in 1999 
compared to a gross profit of $4.6 million in 1998. The increase is comprised 
of the folllowing:

  Product sales          $12.4 million        $4.2 million     $8.2 million
  Service                $1.8 million         $394,200         $1.4 million
</TABLE>

The change in gross profit from product sales is due to an increase in gross 
profit from the sale of Javelin hardware of $3.7 million, gross profit from 
CCI of $1.1 million, gross profit from RGB/Jade of $1.5 million and gross 
profit from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $1.9 million. The 
increase relating to Javelin is attributable to the increase in the number of 
units sold as described above, offset by a decrease in average sales price of 
approximately $100 per unit and a reduction in the cost of its products due 
to reductions in prices from the Company's suppliers resulting from increased 
volume of purchases by the Company and the realization of manufacturing 
efficiencies.

The change in gross profit from service revenues is due to gross profit on 
services provided by RGB/Jade of $1.0 million and gross profit on services 
provided by the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $557,700.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased by 
67.5% to $932,600 in 1999 compared to research and development expenses of 
$556,800 in 1998. All research and development activities are conducted by 
Javelin. The increase is primarily attributable to increased payroll costs 
due to the hiring of additional engineers.

SELLING AND MARKETING. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 210.7% to 
$2.5 million in 1999 compared to selling and marketing expenses of $806,900 
in 1998. The change is due to an increase in selling and marketing expenses 
of Javelin of $266,700, selling and marketing expenses of RGB/Jade of 
$662,300 and selling and marketing expenses of the newly established foreign 
subsidiaries of $770,800. Such expenses consisted primarily of payroll, 
tradeshow fees, and travel costs.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses increased by 
167.4% to $6.5 million in 1999 compared to general and administrative 
expenses of $2.4 million in 1998. The change is due to an increase in general 
and administrative expenses relating to Javelin of $800,500, general and 
administrative expenses of CCI of $1.3 million, general and administrative 
expenses from the newly established foreign subsidiaries of $1.5 million and 
general and administrative expenses of RGB/Jade of $474,300. The increase at 
Javelin consisted primarly of increased payroll costs due primarily to an 
increase in the number of employees and increased facility costs due to 
expansion.

<PAGE>

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET. Interest expense, net, increased by $608,900 to $615,200
in 1999 compared to interest expense of $6,300 in 1998. The increase is due to
borrowings under the credit facility prior to the completion of the public
offerings in November 1998 and February 1999. Such borrowings were necessary to
sustain the growth of business.

INCOME TAXES. Provision for federal, state and foreign income taxes increased 
by $1.1 million to $1.4 million in 1999 compared to a provision for income 
tax of $322,200 in 1998. The increase is attributable to the overall increase 
in income before income taxes of $2.8 million as well as increases in income 
from the Company's foreign subsidiaries operating in jurisdictions with lower 
income tax rates than those in the United States.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On June 8, 1998, the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries obtained a credit 
facility of $7.5 million from a financial institution. The credit facility 
expires on June 8, 2001 and consists of a line of credit of up to $6.0 
million and a term loan of $1.5 million. Under the line of credit, the 
Company may borrow up to 80% of eligible receivables (as defined) and 50% of 
eligible inventory (as defined) with monthly interest based upon the prime 
rate of a national financial institution plus 1.75% (9.5% as of March 31, 
1999). As of March 31, 1999 borrowings outstanding under the line amounted to 
$1.9 million with approximately $3.5 million available for future borrowings. 
Borrowings under the term loan are collateralized by substantially all of the 
assets of the Company and bear interest at 13.65% per annum. The Company is 
required to pay $25,000 per month under the term loan with all unpaid 
principal and interest due on June 8, 2001.

In November 1998, the Company completed a public offering of 1,395,000 shares 
of its common stock at $6.75 per share, netting proceeds to the Company of 
approximately $8.1 million. Proceeds to the Company were used to repay 
borrowings under the revolving line of credit of approximately $3.2 million, 
to purchase all of the outstanding common stock of RGB and Jade and for 
general corporate purposes.

In February 1999, the Company completed a public offering of 2,375,000 shares 
of its common stock at $12.25 per share, netting proceeds to the Company of 
approximately $26.9 million. Proceeds to the Company were used for working 
capital and general corporate purposes.

As of March 31, 1999, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $22.2 
million and working capital of $39.1 million.

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 
amounted to $8.0 million and consisted primarily of increases in trade 
receivables and inventories. Cash used in investing activities for the nine 
months ended March 31, 1999 amounted to $3.4 million and consisted primarily 
of cash used to acquire equipment and the outstanding common stock of RGB and 
Jade. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 
1999 


                                        17

amounted to $33.9 million and consisted primarily of the proceeds from the 
public offerings completed in November 1998 and February 1999.

In April 1999, the Company completed an additional acquisition. See Note 3 to 
the consolidated financial statements for additional details.

The Company believes that it has adequate financial resources to meet its 
capital requirements for the foreseeable future

YEAR 2000.

The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in 
existing computers systems as the year 2000 approaches. The year 2000 is 
pervasive and complex as virtually every computer operation will be affected 
in some way by the rollover of the two digit year value to "00". The issue is 
whether computer systems will properly recognize date-sensitive information 
when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such 
information could could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail. 
The Company is reviewing both its information technology and its 
non-information technology systems to determine whether they are year 2000 
compliant, and to date the Company has not identified any material systems 
which are not year 2000 compliant. The Company has not made any material 
expenditures to address the year 2000 problem and at present does not 
anticipate that it will be required to make any such material expenditures in 
the future.

The Company has initiated formal communications with all significant 
suppliers and service providers to determine the extent to which the Company 
is vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate the year 2000 
problem. Although the Company has received verbal assurances of year 2000 
compliance from certain of such third parties, the Company has not received 
written assurances of year 2000 compliance from the third parties with whom 
it has relationships. The Company believes its operations will not be 
significantly disrupted even if third parties with whom the Company has 
relationships are not year 2000 compliant. In the event that the Company's 
suppliers are unable to provide sufficient quantities of materials or goods 
to the Company as a result of their failure to be year 2000 compliant, the 
Company believes that it can obtain adequate supplies of materials and goods 
at comparable prices from other sources. In the event that the Company's 
OEM's and VAR's are adversely affected by any failure to become year 2000 
compliant and are therefore unable to purchase anticipated quantities of the 
Company's products on a timely basis, the Company may seek to replace such 
OEM's and VAR's. Nevertheless, the Company believes that any year 2000 
compliance problems of its suppliers, OEM's and VAR's could cause the 
Company's results of operations to fluctuate on a period to period basis. 
Uncertainty exists concerning the potential costs and effects associated with 
any year 2000 compliance, and the Company intends to continue to make efforts 
to ensure that third parties with whom it has relationships are year 2000 
compliant. Any year 2000 compliance problem of either the Company or third 
parties with whom the Company has relationships could materially adversely 
affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
131, "Disclosures about Segment of an Enterprise and Related Information" 
("SFAS 131") which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 
14. This statement changes the way that publicly-held companies report 
information about operating segments as well as disclosures about product and 
services, geographic areas and major customers. Operating segments are 
defined as revenue-producing components of the enterprise, which are 
generally used internally for evaluating segment performance. SFAS 131 will 
be effective for the Company's year ending June 30, 1999 and will not affect 
the financial position or results of operations.
