STARTEK, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except share data)
(unaudited)
NOTE (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The condensed consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of StarTek, Inc.,
and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1997 and 1996 and for the periods then
ended. Operating results for the three and nine months periods ended September
30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 1997.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's prospectus dated June 18, 1997 for the
Company's initial public offering.
NOTE (2) INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF COMMON STOCK
On June 24, 1997 the Company completed an initial public offering of
its common stock. The Company sold 3,000,000 shares of common stock at an
offering price of $15.00 per share. Total proceeds after deducting $3,958 in
estimated costs associated with the offering were $41,042. Immediately prior to
the closing of the offering the Company completed a 320.1064-for-1 common stock
split effected by a stock dividend. All common stock amounts, equivalent share
amounts and per share amounts included in the accompanying financial statements
and related notes have been adjusted to give effect to the stock dividend.
NOTE (3) DIVIDEND TO S CORPORATION PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS
Effective immediately prior to the June 24, 1997 closing of the initial
public offering, the Company declared an $8,000 dividend in an amount
approximately equal to the estimated additional paid-in capital and retained
earnings of the Company as of the closing date of the initial public offering,
pursuant to certain promissory notes. Such notes were paid June 30, 1997 from
the net proceeds of the initial public offering.
NOTE (4) MANAGEMENT FEE EXPENSE
Historically, certain S corporation stockholders and an affiliate have
been paid certain management fees, bonuses and other fees in connection with
services rendered to the Company which have not been included in selling,
general and administrative expenses, in addition to general compensation for
services rendered. Such management fees are reflected as management fee expense
as set forth below. Effective with the closing of the Company's initial public
offering in June 1997, these management fees, bonuses and other fees were
discontinued.

STARTEK, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(dollars in thousands, except share data)
(unaudited)
After the closing of the initial public offering, all compensation
payable to persons who had been S corporation stockholders of the Company (or an
affiliate of such stockholder) is in the form of advisory fees, salaries and
bonuses (which at current rates aggregate approximately $516 annually) and are
included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Such advisory fees and
salaries, together with payments under an operating lease terminated effective
December 31, 1996, are reflected as selling, general and administrative expense
as set forth below.

public offering, and the provision for related income taxes at an effective rate

<PAGE> 10
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Revenues. Revenues increased $4.7 million, or 30.7%, to $20.2 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from $15.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. Revenues of $0.4 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 were attributable to new clients while existing clients
accounted for the remaining $4.3 million of this increase. Revenue from new
clients were partially offset by the effects of completion of projects for
existing and former clients, and fluctuating requirements with respect to
ongoing projects.
Cost of Services. Costs of services increased $4.1 million, or 33.7%,
to $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from $12.2
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of
revenues, cost of services increased to 80.6% for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from 78.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
primarily due to increased work for a major client at lower relative margins and
decreased labor utilization.
Gross Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, gross profit
increased $0.6 million, or 19.5%, to $3.9 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30,
1996. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit decreased to 19.4% for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 from 21.2% for the three months ended September
30, 1996.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses increased
$0.4 million, or 21.7%, to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30,
1997 from $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996, primarily
as a result of increased personnel costs incurred to service increasing
business. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses decreased to 10.6% for the
three months ended September 30, 1997 from 11.3% for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, reflecting a lesser relative increase in SG&A expense as
compared to the increase in revenues.
Management Fee Expense. Management fee expense decreased $0.5 million
to zero for the three months ended September 30, 1997. Effective with the
closing of the Company's initial public offering in June 1997, management fees
were discontinued.
Operating Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, operating
profit increased $0.8 million, or 73.8%, to $1.8 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 from $1.0 million for the three months ended September
30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, operating profit increased to 8.8% for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 from 6.6% for the three months ended
September 30, 1996.
Net Interest Expense and Other (Income). Net interest expense and other
(income) was $0.5 million income for the three months ended September 30, 1997,
while it was $0.1 million expense in the three months ended September 30, 1996.
This increase in net interest earnings was primarily due to interest earnings
from the net proceeds of the Company's initial public offering and the
substantial absence of line-of-credit borrowing during the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as contrasted to the comparable period of 1996.
10
<PAGE> 11
Income Before Income Taxes. As a result of the foregoing factors,
income before income taxes increased $1.4 million, or 142.2%, to $2.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, income before
income taxes increased to 11.5% for the three months ended September 30, 1997
from 6.2% for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
Income Tax Expense. The Company operated as an S corporation for
federal and state income tax purposes until termination of S corporation status
on June 18, 1997 in connection with the Company's initial public offering.
Accordingly, the Company was not subject to federal or state income taxes
through June 17, 1997. A provision for federal , state, and foreign income taxes
as a C corporation of $0.9 million was made in the three months ended September
30, 1997, and a provision for foreign income taxes of $0.1 million was made in
the three months ended September 30, 1996.
Net Income. Based on the factors discussed above, net income increased
$0.6 million, or 72.0%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30,
1997 from $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996. As a
percentage of revenues, net income increased to 7.2% for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 from 5.5% for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
Pro Forma Management Fee Expense; Pro Forma Operating Profit; Pro Forma
Income Before Income Taxes; Pro Forma Income Taxes and Pro Forma Net Income for
the three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to actual results for the
three months ended September 30, 1997. No pro forma presentation was applicable
to the three months ended September 30, 1997. Pro forma amounts for the three
months ended September 30, 1996 reflect the elimination of management fees and
bonuses to stockholders and their affiliates as these fees and bonuses were
discontinued upon the closing of the Company's initial public offering, and
provide for related income taxes at 37.3% of pre-tax income as if the Company
were taxed as a C corporation. As a result of the foregoing factors (i)
management fee expense is zero for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and
pro forma management fee expense is zero for the three months ended September
30, 1996; (ii) operating profit increased $0.3 million, or 17.0%, to $1.8
million for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.5 million pro
forma operating profit for the three months ended September 30, 1996; (iii)
income before income taxes increased $0.9 million, or 59.3%, to $2.3 million for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.5 million pro forma income
before income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 1996; (iv) income
taxes increased $0.3 million, or 59.3%, to $0.9 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 from $0.5 million pro forma income tax expense for the
three months ended September 30, 1996; and (v) net income increased $0.5
million, or 59.4%, to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997
from $0.9 million pro forma net income for the three months ended September 30,
1996.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Revenues. Revenues increased $8.2 million, or 18.2%, to $53.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $44.8 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. Revenues of $1.4 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 were attributable to new clients while existing clients
accounted for the remaining $6.7 million of this increase. Revenues from new
clients were partially offset by the effects of completion of projects for
existing and former clients and fluctuating requirements with respect to ongoing
projects. A portion of the revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
were attributable to two large projects, which generated unusually high
revenues.
Cost of Services. Cost of services increased $5.6 million, or 15.6%, to
$41.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $36.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, cost
of services decreased to 78.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from
80.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. This change was primarily
due to the absence of start-up costs for the Denver facility and product recall
and rework costs incurred on a certain product distributed from the United
Kingdom facility during the nine months ended September 30,1997 together with
slightly improved labor utilization on a year-to-date basis, partially offset by
increased work for a major client at lower relative margins.
Gross Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, gross profit
increased $2.5 million, or 28.9%, to $11.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit increased to 21.5% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 from 19.7% for the nine months ended September
30, 1996.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses increased
$0.9 million, or 17.5%, to $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 from $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, primarily
as a result of increased personnel costs incurred to service increasing
business. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses decreased to $11.8% for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 11.9% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, reflecting a lesser relative increase in SG&A expense as
compared to the increase in revenues.
Management Fee Expense. Management fee expense increased $1.7 million,
or 123.8%, to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from
$1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of
revenues, management fee expense increased to 5.9% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 from 3.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The
Company paid management fees and bonuses of $3.1 million in the period from
January 1, 1997 through the closing of the Company's initial public offering in
June 1997, at which time these management fees and bonus arrangements were
discontinued. These management fee and bonus payments gave consideration to
operating profits and the effects of certain expense timing differences for book
and tax purposes. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, management fee
expense was accrued based on estimated tax requirements of the recipient.

<PAGE> 13
Operating Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, operating
profit decreased $0.1 million, or 5.3%, to $2.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 from $2.1 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, operating profit decreased to 3.8% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 4.7% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996.
Net Interest Expense and Other(Income). Net interest expense and other
(income) was $0.4 million income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
while it was $0.3 million expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
This increase to net interest earnings was primarily due to interest earnings
from the net proceeds of the Company's initial public offering and the
substantial absence of line-of-credit borrowing during the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as contrasted to the comparable period of 1996.
Income Before Income Taxes. As a result of the foregoing factors,
income before income taxes increased $0.5 million, or 29.9%, to $2.4 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, income before income
taxes increased to 4.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 4.0%
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
Income Tax Expense. The Company operated as an S corporation for
federal and state income tax purposes until termination of S corporation status
on June 18, 1997 in connection with the Company's initial public offering.
Accordingly, the Company was not subject to federal or state income taxes
through June 17, 1997. During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, a
provision for income taxes as a C corporation was made for the period June 18,
1997 through September 30, 1997 as adjusted for a foreign tax benefit item, less
a one-time credit to record a net deferred tax asset of $0.3 million upon
termination of S corporation status. A provision for foreign income taxes of
$0.1 million was made in the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
Net Income. Based on the factors discussed above, net income remained
relatively unchanged at $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996. As a percentage of revenues, net income decreased to 3.2% for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from 3.8% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996.
Pro Forma Management Fee Expense; Pro Forma Operating Profit; Pro Forma
Income Before Income Taxes; Pro Forma Income Taxes and Pro Forma Net Income. Pro
forma amounts reflect the elimination of management fees and bonuses to
stockholders and their affiliates as these fees and bonuses were discontinued
upon the closing of the Company's initial public offering, and provide for
related income taxes at 37.3% of pre-tax income as if the Company were taxed as
a C corporation. As a result of the foregoing factors (i) pro forma management
fee expense is zero for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996; (ii)
pro forma operating profit increased $1.6 million, or 46.0%, to $5.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $3.5 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996; (iii) pro forma income before income taxes increased
$2.3 million, or 70.8%, to $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 from $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996; (iv) pro
forma income taxes increased $0.8 million, or 70.7%, to $2.0 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.2 million for the nine months
September 30, 1996; and (v) pro forma net income increased $1.4 million, or
13
<PAGE> 14
70.7%, to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $2.0
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Prior to its initial public offering in June 1997, the Company funded
its operations and capital expenditures primarily through cash flow from
operations, borrowings under various lines of credit, capital lease
arrangements, short-term borrowings from its stockholders and their affiliates,
and additional capital contributions by its stockholders. In November 1997, the
Company replaced its previous $3.5 million line of credit with Norwest Business
Credit, Inc. with a $5.0 million revolving line of credit with Norwest Bank (the
"Bank"), which matures on April 30, 1999. Borrowings under the line of credit
bear interest at the Bank's prime rate. Under this line of credit, the Company
is required to maintain working capital of $17,500,000 and tangible net worth of
$25,000,000. Collateral for the line of credit is the Company's accounts
receivable.
The Company completed an initial public offering of common stock on
June 24, 1997. The net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and
commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $41.0 million. From the
net proceeds, the Company repaid substantially all of it's outstanding
indebtedness, which included approximately $5.0 million of bank and mortgage
indebtedness, $1.8 million of capital lease obligations and $8.0 million of
notes payable to principal stockholders arising from an S corporation dividend
in an amount approximately equal to the additional paid-in capital and retained
earnings of the Company as of the closing date. The balance of the net proceeds
(approximately $26.2 million) will be used for working capital and other general
corporate purposes, including approximately $8.0 million for capital
expenditures to expand and build-out its existing facilities and systems, and to
potentially make strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses.
The Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
available for sale of $32.8 million at September 30, 1997. The Company's working
capital was $37.4 million.
The Company agreed to finance telecommunications computer hardware and
software through a 36 month operating lease which became effective in April
1997. Monthly payments approximate $28,500.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $2.9 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $4.5 million for the same period
in the prior year. The principal causes of this decrease were (i) a reduction in
accrued and other liabilities as contrasted to an increase in the comparable
period of 1996 and (ii) a lesser reduction in accounts receivable in the period,
partially offset by an increase in accounts payable as contrasted to the
decrease in the comparable period of 1996.
14
<PAGE> 15
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $1.4 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $0.6 million for the same period in
the prior year. The principal causes for this increase were (i) acquisition of
short-term investments, net, of the net proceeds of the Company's initial public
offering and (ii) increases in purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided from financing activities increased to $28.7 million
in the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $(4.0) million used in
financing activities for the same period in the prior year. The principal causes
of this increase were the net proceeds from the Company's initial public
offering, contributed capital from principal stockholders and reduction in
principal payments on an affiliate note, partially offset by a dividend to the
principal stockholders and the repayment of substantially all of the Company's
indebtedness.
The Company believes that cash flow from operations and net proceeds to
the Company from its initial public offering, together with available funds
under the line of credit, will be sufficient to support its operations and
capital expenditure and liquidity requirements for the next 12 months and
anticipated operations and cash expenditures for the foreseeable future.
However, long-term capital requirements depend on many factors including, but
not limited to, the rate at which the Company expands its business, whether
internally or through acquisitions and strategic alliances. To the extent that
the funds generated from the sources described above are insufficient to fund
the Company's activities in the short or long term, the Company will be required
to raise the additional funds through public or private financing. No assurance
can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if available,
it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
VARIABILITY OF QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS
Historically, the Company's revenues have been significantly lower in
the first and second quarters of each year due to the timing of its clients'
marketing programs and the introduction of new products, which are typically
geared toward the Christmas holiday seasons. Additionally, the Company has
experienced, and expects to experience in the future, quarterly variations in
operating results as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside
the Company's control, including: (i) the timing of new projects; (ii) the
expiration or termination of existing projects; (iii) the timing of increased
expenses incurred to obtain and support new business; (iv) the seasonal pattern
of certain of the businesses served by the Company; and (v) the cyclical nature
of certain client's businesses.
INFLATION AND GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Although the Company cannot accurately anticipate the effect of
inflation on its operations, the Company does not believe that inflation has
had, or is likely in the foreseeable future to have, a material effect on its
results of operations or financial condition.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

report, that are not statements of historical facts are forward-looking
statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements include (i) the anticipated level of capital expenditures, (ii) the
Company's belief that existing cash, short-term investments and available
borrowing will be sufficient to finance the Company's operations; and (iii)
statements relating to the Company or its operations that are preceded by terms
such as "anticipates", "expects", "believes", and similar expressions.
In accordance with the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, the following are important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements; these include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions
in the Company's markets, the loss of one or more of its significant clients,
and the loss or delay in implementation of a large project which could cause
quarterly variations in the Company's revenues and earnings. Readers are
encouraged to review the Risk Factors section of the Company's prospectus dated
June 18, 1997 for its initial public offering.

The captions in the boxes above, and the names, dates, amounts and other
information therein, are defined terms and are hereby incorporated in the note
provisions below.
Maker promises to pay to the order of Bank at Bank's address the Face
Amount with Interest on the unpaid balance of the Face Amount from the Note
Date at the Rate indicated above (based upon a year of 360 days and computed for
the actual number of days elapsed). *Principal and Interest shall be payable as
follows:
Interest shall be payable monthly on the last day of each month beginning
11/30/1997. The balance of principal plus accrued interest shall be
payable at maturity.
**The interest rate shall be at an annual rate equal to the Norwest Bank
Colorado, National Association Prime Rate, effective the same day of its
change. Prime Rate shall mean the interest rate charged by Norwest Bank
Colorado, National Association as announced or published by the Bank from
time to time as its Prime Rate, and may not be the lowest interest rate
charged by the Bank.
THIS NOTE EVIDENCES AN ARRANGEMENT PROVIDING FOR FUTURE ADVANCES THAT IN
AGGREGATE AMOUNT OUTSTANDING SHALL AT NO TIME EXCEED THE FACE AMOUNT.
Overdue principal and (to the extent legally enforceable) overdue interest,
whether caused by acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall bear interest at
a rate four percentage points above the rate in effect at the time such
principal or interest becomes due.
At the option of the holder of this note (the "holder") the unpaid balance of
this note plus accrued interest and all other obligations of Maker to the
holder, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, now existing or hereafter
arising, shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand if
(a) any payment required by this note is not made when due, or (b) a default or
event of default occurs under any loan or security agreement or instrument
executed as security for or in connection with this note, or (c) the holder at
any time in good faith believes that the prospect of any payment required by
this note is impaired, whether or not such belief is caused by any act or
failure to act of any Maker or of any endorser, guarantor or accommodation party
of or on this note (hereunder collectively referred to as "any other signer").
Maker and any other signer (1) waive presentment, notice of dishonor and
protest, (2) assent to any extension of time with respect to any payment due
under this note, to any substitution or release of collateral and to the
addition or release of any party, and (3) agree that Bank may apply, as Bank
elects, any payment received after default to any portion of Maker's
obligations hereunder. No waiver of any payment or other right under this note
shall operate as a waiver of any other payment or right. Maker and any other
signer shall pay all reasonable costs of collection, including attorneys' fees,
paid or incurred by the holder in enforcing this note on default.
This note (a) is secured by the Security indicated above, if any, and (b)
shall be construed under and governed by the laws of Colorado. If there is
more than one Maker, all of the provisions of this note shall apply to each and
any of them.
