                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (Unaudited)

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Organization and Business
-------------------------

  RWD Technologies, Inc., and subsidiaries (the ``Company'') was incorporated on
January 22, 1988, in the State of Maryland. The Company provides a broad range
of integrated solutions designed to improve the productivity and effectiveness
of workers in complex operating environments.

  The Company's operations depend upon, among other things, the Company's
ability to attract, develop, and retain a sufficient number of highly skilled
professional employees. In addition, the Company's revenue is generated from a
limited number of clients in specific industries. Future operations may be
affected by its ability to retain these clients and cyclical and economic
factors that could have an impact on those industries.

Basis of Presentation
---------------------

  The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

  In the first quarter of 2000 the Company changed the way it reports gross
profit margins. The Company previously included selling expenses with cost of
sales and has now included these expenses with selling, general and
administrative expenses. Historical bottom line results obviously do not change;
however, prior quarter comparisons are restated to reflect consistently this
change. The amounts for 1999 were reclassified to conform to the 2000 period
presentation.

Comprehensive Income
--------------------

  Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business
enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances
from nonowner sources. The Company's comprehensive income for the periods
presented is listed below:

2.    Business Segments:

  The Company believes it has reportable operating segments, as defined by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131. The Company has identified
three distinct operating segments: Latitude360; Enterprise Systems Group; and
Manufacturing Performance Group.

  During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company changed its
reportable segments from Information Technology, Enterprise Resource Planning,
Lean Manufacturing Consulting, and Technology Performance Support; to
Latitude360, Enterprise Systems Group, and Manufacturing Performance Group. The
change was made to conform the Company's reporting to how it now manages its
business. As a result, the Company has restated the results of the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999 segment reporting disclosure to conform to
its new segments.

  The accounting policies for these segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies. Depreciation and amortization
expense is reported in each operating segment. However, the Company's tangible
assets are not managed as distinct asset groups. All tangible assets not
specifically identified to a segment are recorded at the corporate level with
depreciation expense allocated to operating segments based on headcount.
Interest expense, interest income, and income taxes are reported at the
corporate level only and are not disclosed below.

   increased by $5.1 million (or 63.7 percent), from $8.0 million in the quarter
   ending September 30, 1999, to $13.1 million in the quarter ending September
   30, 2000, representing 27.4 percent of the Company's revenue in 1999 and 36.6
   percent of the Company's revenue in 2000. The Company's Enterprise Systems
   business increased due to a strong ERP market and relationships with key ERP
   related companies.

 .  Manufacturing Performance. Revenue for the Company's Manufacturing
   Performance group increased by $1.2 million (or 10.5 percent), from $11.6
   million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999, to $12.9 million in the
   quarter ending September 30, 2000, representing 40.0 percent of the Company's
   revenue in 1999 and 36.1 percent of the Company's revenue in 2000. This
   increase in revenue was primarily attributable to work performed in the
   current quarter under a significant contract with an important established
   client.

   Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the total Company increased by $3.6 million
(or 61.1 percent), from $5.8 million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999,
to $9.4 million in the quarter ending September 30, 2000, and increased from
20.0 percent of revenue in 1999 to 26.3 percent of revenue in 2000. This
increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue resulted primarily from
higher rates and a favorable mix of business. Gross profit for individual
operating segments were as follows:

 .  Latitude360. Gross profit for Latitude360 increased by 29.4 percent from $1.3
   million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999, to $1.7 million in the
   quarter ending September 30, 2000. Gross profit margin for Latitude360
   increased from 14.0 percent of this segment's revenue in the third quarter of
   1999 to 17.7 percent in 2000. This increase in gross profit margin resulted
   primarily from higher workforce utilization.

 .  Enterprise Systems. Gross profit for Enterprise Systems increased by 505.4
   percent from $0.7 million in the quarter ending September 30, 1999, to $4.1
   million in the quarter ending September 30, 2000. Gross profit margin for
   Enterprise Systems increased from 8.4 percent of this segment's revenue in
   the third quarter of 1999 to 31.1 percent in 2000. This significant increase
   in gross profit margin was due primarily to an increase in staff utilization
   and higher billing rates.

 .  Manufacturing Performance. Gross profit for Manufacturing Performance
   decreased by 5.9 percent from $3.8 million in the quarter ending September
   30, 1999, to $3.6 million in the quarter ending September 30, 2000. Gross
   profit margin for Manufacturing Performance decreased from 32.8 percent of
   this segment's revenue in the third quarter of 1999 to 28.0 percent in 2000.
   This decrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to lower base rates
   of a significant incentives-type contract in 2000 with a significant
   established client.

   Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $977,400 (or 16.5 percent), from $5.9
million in the third quarter of 1999 to $6.9 million in the third quarter of
2000, decreasing from 20.4 percent of revenue in 1999 to 19.3 percent of revenue
in 2000. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue resulted primarily from the significant increase in sales
from the low level of 1999 without a required proportionate increase in such
expenses.

   Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, the Company's operating
income increased by $2.6 million from an operating loss of $0.1 million in the
third quarter of 1999 to $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2000 and increased
from a negative 0.4 percent of revenue in the third quarter of 1999 to 6.9
percent of revenue in the third quarter of 2000.

   Other Income. Other income was $135,000 in the third quarter of 1999 and a
loss of $82,000 in the third quarter of 2000. This income consisted primarily of
interest income from cash and investment balances partially offset by interest
expense from the Company's line of credit and capital leases.

   Net Income. Net income increased by $1.5 million from $20,400 in the third
quarter of 1999 to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2000, increasing from
0.1 percent of revenue in 1999 to 4.2 percent of revenue in 2000.

   Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000, Compared to Nine Months Ended September
30, 1999

   Revenue.  Revenue for the total Company increased by $5.2 million (or 5.5
percent), from $94.8 million for the nine months ending September 30, 1999, to
$100.0 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2000. Operating segment
information is as follows:

 .  Latitude360. Revenue for Latitude360 decreased by $2.7 million (or 8.5
   percent), from $31.1 million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999, to
   $28.5 million in the nine months ending September 30, 2000, representing 32.9
   percent of the Company's revenue in 1999 and 28.5 percent of the Company's
   revenue in 2000. A key factor in the revenue decrease is a reduced demand for
   the Company's traditional IT related services. The Company is aggressively
   investing in the eSolutions and eLearning business sectors of the business to
   further enhance its image in the marketplace and return to traditional
   revenue and profit margin growth rates.

 .  Enterprise Systems. Revenue for the Company's Enterprise Systems Group
   increased by $5.5 million (or 18.5 percent), from $29.9 million in the nine
   months ending September 30, 1999, to $35.4 million in the nine months ending
   September 30, 2000, representing 31.5 percent of the Company's revenue in
   1999 and 35.4 percent of the Company's revenue in 2000. This growth was due
   primarily to growth in the ERP related marketplace and increased revenue
   resulting from the Company's relationships with key ERP related companies.

 .  Manufacturing Performance. Revenue for the Company's Manufacturing
   Performance Group increased by $2.4 million (or 7.0 percent), from $33.8
   million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999, to $36.1 million in the
   nine months ending September 30, 2000, representing 35.6 percent of the
   Company's revenue in 1999 and 36.1 percent of the Company's revenue in 2000.
   This increase in

                                       7
<PAGE>

   revenue was primarily attributable to services provided under a significant
   contract with an existing client, and overall increases in billing rates
   charged to clients.

   Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the total Company decreased by $1.6 million
(or 6.3 percent), from $25.7 million in the nine months ending September 30,
1999, to $24.1 million in the nine months ending September 30, 2000, and
decreased from 27.1 percent of revenue in 1999 to 24.1 percent of revenue in
2000. Gross profit for individual operating segments were as follows:

 .  Latitude360. Gross profit for Latitude360 decreased by 57.8 percent from $8.8
   million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999, to $3.7 million in the
   nine months ending September 30, 2000. Gross profit margin for Latitude360
   decreased from 28.4 percent of this segment's revenue in the first nine
   months of 1999 to 13.1 percent in 2000. This decrease in gross profit margin
   resulted primarily from decreases in staff utilization as demand for the
   Company's traditional IT related services decreased.

 .  Enterprise Systems. Gross profit for Enterprise Systems increased by 63.7
   percent from $6.1 million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999, to
   $10.1 million in the nine months ending September 30, 2000. Gross profit
   margin for Enterprise Systems increased from 20.6 percent of this segment's
   revenue in the first nine months of 1999 to 28.4 percent in 2000. This
   increase in gross profit margin was primarily attributed to higher billing
   rates and increases in staff utilization reflecting the increase in business
   level from the first nine months of 1999.

 .  Manufacturing Performance. Gross profit for Manufacturing Performance
   decreased by 3.9 percent from $10.7 million in the nine months ending
   September 30, 1999, to $10.3 million in the nine months ending September 30,
   2000. Gross profit margin for Manufacturing Performance decreased from 31.8
   percent of this segment's revenue in the first nine months of 1999 to 28.5
   percent in 2000. This decrease in gross profit margin resulted primarily from
   lower base billing rates on an incentives-type contract with a significant
   automotive client.

   Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $2.3 million (or 13.8 percent), from $16.9
million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999 to $19.2 million in the
same period of 2000, increasing from 17.8 percent of revenue in 1999 to 19.2
percent of revenue in 2000. This increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenue resulted primarily from increases in sales
and marketing expenses, depreciation on capital equipment, and legal and
accounting fees, partially offset by a decrease in facility rent expense as a
percentage of revenue.

   Operating Income. As a result of the foregoing, the Company's operating
income decreased by $4.0 million (or 44.9 percent), from $8.8 million in the
nine months ending September 30, 1999 to $4.9 million in the same period of 2000
and decreased from 9.3 percent of revenue in the nine months ending September
30, 1999 to 4.9 percent of revenue in the same period of 2000.

   Other Income. Other income was $993,000 for the nine months ending September
30, 1999 and $52,000 for the same period of 2000. This income consisted
primarily of interest income from cash and investment balances partially offset
by interest expense from the Company's line of credit and capital leases.

   Net Income. Net income decreased by $3.0 million (or 49.5 percent), from $6.1
million in the nine months ending September 30, 1999 to $3.1 million in the same
period of 2000, decreasing from 6.5 percent of revenue in 1999 to 3.1 percent of
revenue in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The Company's cash and investments were $25.6 million at September 30, 2000,
compared to $28.2 million at December 31, 1999. The decrease in cash and
investments at September 30, 2000 was attributable to slower client invoicing as
a result of the Company's implementation of a new accounting system and the
greater working capital requirements of a higher level of business. The
Company's working capital was $48.5 million at September 30, 2000, and $47.1
million at December 31, 1999.

  The Company's operating activities used cash of approximately $1.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to providing $5.3 million for
the same period in 1999. The cash used by operations in the first nine months of
2000 resulted primarily from a reduction in net income and increases in trade
accounts receivable and unbilled revenue, partially offset by an increase in
accounts payable.

  Investing activities used cash of $10.1 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to $9.7 million for the same period in 1999. Cash
used for investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
consisted primarily of the purchase of capital equipment, funded by use of the
Company's line of credit.

  Financing activities provided cash of $7.5 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, compared to the use of $6.5 million for the same period in
1999. Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September
30, 2000 consisted of net borrowings under the Company's operating line of
credit and proceeds from the issuance of common stock due to the exercise of
employee stock options.

  The Company has a $10.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit with a
commercial bank, which bears interest at the 30-day, LIBOR rate (6.6 percent on
September 30, 2000) plus 0.875 percent. The Company utilizes this line of credit
to finance a portion of its working capital needs. There was $6.5 million
outstanding on the line of credit as of September 30, 2000, and zero outstanding
on December 31, 1999.

  During the nine months ending September 30, 2000, the Company made $8.4
million in capital expenditures, primarily for office furniture, computer and
office equipment, and leasehold improvements to support the growth in its
worldwide office structure. Capital expenditures currently are funded from
available cash, although the Company may consider alternative financing methods,
such as equipment leases or asset-based borrowings in future periods.

Effects of Inflation

  Inflation has not had a significant effect on the Company's business during
the past three years. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, inflation
may have on its future results of operations.
