                 DYNACORE HOLDINGS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                             (Debtor-in-Possession)
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                      (In thousands, except per share data)
                                   (Unaudited)

1.  Basis of Presentation and Sale of European Operations

On June 27,  2000,  Dynacore  Holdings  Corporation  (the  "Company")  (formerly
Datapoint  Corporation),  elected to change its fiscal year from a July year end
to a calendar year end, effective January 1, 2000.

It is  recommended  that  these  statements  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1999.

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
by  Dynacore  Holdings   Corporation  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted
accounting   principles  for  interim   financial   information   and  with  the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 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,  the  information  furnished  reflects  all  adjustments  which  are
necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods  presented.
All adjustments made in the interim statements are of a normal recurring nature.

The Company has not sought to retain an independent auditor,  which will require
court approval,  subsequent to the filing of Petition for  Reorganization  under
Chapter 11 of the  United  States  Bankruptcy  Code,  as  discussed  below,  and
therefore,  this  Form  10-Q  has  been  prepared  without  independent  auditor
involvement or review.

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial  statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Consistent with the  determination  of its Board of Directors to shift the focus
of the  Company  towards  acquiring,  developing  and  marketing  products  with
internet  and   e-commerce   applications,   the  Company  and  several  of  its
subsidiaries  entered into that certain Stock  Purchase  Agreement,  dated as of
July 31, 1999 (the "Reboot Agreement"),  with Reboot Systems, Inc. ("Reboot") an
investor  group lead by Blake Thomas,  the former  President of the Company,  to
sell the European  subsidiaries of the Company which comprise  substantially all
of the  Company's  operations  (the  "European  Operations").  Subsequent to the
termination of the Reboot  Agreement,  as a result of the lack of performance by
Reboot,  the Company  entered into a Letter of Intent,  dated  January 26, 2000,
with the European based  CallCentric Ltd.  ("CallCentric")  to sell the European
Operations.  Pursuant  to an  agreement  dated as of April 19,  2000 (the  "Sale
Agreement"),  on June 30, 2000,  after receipt of approval  from the  Bankruptcy
Court, the Company sold (the "Sale") its European  Operations to Datapoint Newco
I Limited ("Newco"),  a United Kingdom corporation  affiliated with CallCentric,
for $49,500 in cash,  less certain  adjustments  in the event that the aggregate
shareholder's  deficit of the European  Operations  exceeded  $10,000.  The Sale
Agreement  contemplated,  among other  things,  that the Company  would file for
reorganization  pursuant  to Chapter 11 of the United  States  Bankruptcy  Code,
which was filed on May 3, 2000 and that the sale of the European  Operations  to
Newco would be subject to higher and better offers,  if any, and the approval of
the Bankruptcy  Court.  The Bankruptcy  Court approved the sale on June 15, 2000
and the sale was consummated on June 30, 2000.

The accompanying  unaudited financial statements include a gain of $50.9 million
resulting  from the sale  described  above.  Based  upon the  allocation  of the
purchase  price  among the assets to be  transferred  in the Sale,  the  Company
believes that it has sufficient tax basis in excess of book basis of assets sold
and net operating loss carryovers to avoid income taxes on the Sale.

While the Company has physical control of the cash received from the sale of the
European Operations and subsequent earnings,  all of the Company's cash and cash
equivalents  have been classified as restricted cash pending the confirmation of
the proposed Plan of  Reorganization  and the related final cash distribution to
the Company's creditors.

2.       Bankruptcy

On May 3, 2000, the Company filed for  reorganization  pursuant to Chapter 11 of
the United  States  Bankruptcy  Code for the  District  of  Delaware.  (Case No.
00-1853(PJW)).  None of the  Company's  European  subsidiaries  were part of the
Chapter 11 filing.  Under Chapter 11,  certain debts of the Company prior to the
filing are stayed while the Company continues business as Debtor-in-Possession.
<PAGE>

These  liabilities  are  reflected in the  September  30, 2000 balance  sheet as
liabilities subject to compromise and consist of the following:

  8 7/8% Convertible subordinated debentures                         $54,960
  Accrued  interest on 8 7/8% Convertible subordinated debentures      4,503
  Accounts payable, net of subsidiary debt                             1,598
  Priority claims                                                        418
                                                                    --------
                                                                     $61,479

Since  December 1, 1999 the Company has been in default of its interest  payment
obligation on its Debentures. As such, interest of $4.5 million has been accrued
for the  period  June 2, 1999  through  the time of  Chapter 11 filing on May 3,
2000.  Interest  for the  period  May 3,  2000  through  September  30,  2000 is
approximately $2.0 million and has not been accrued.

On  June  27,  2000,  the  Company  announced  its  intention  to file a Plan of
Reorganization  pursuant  to Chapter 11 of the  Bankruptcy  Code in  substantial
conformity  with an agreement in principle  reached with the Official  Unsecured
Creditors'  Committee appointed in the corporation's  Chapter 11 case pending in
the United  States  Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of  Delaware.  (Case No.
00-1853(PJW)).  The Company  thereafter filed an Amended Plan of  Reorganization
("the  Plan")  and  a  Second  Amended  Disclosure  Statement  (the  "Disclosure
Statement").  By order dated October 17, 2000 the Bankruptcy  Court approved the
Disclosure Statement and the Company is currently soliciting  acceptances of the
Plan. The Bankruptcy  Court has scheduled a hearing on the  confirmation  of the
Plan for December 5, 2000.

The agreement in principle,  which is subject to among other things, approval by
creditors and equity  security  holders and approval by the Bankruptcy  Court of
the Plan,  provides for the distribution of approximately  $34.8 million in cash
to holders of the  outstanding 8 7/8%  Convertible  Subordinated  Debentures due
2006 (the  "Debentures") and other unsecured  creditors from the proceeds of the
sale to Newco.  Such cash  distribution  is  expected  to result in  holders  of
Debentures receiving a distribution equal to approximately 60% of the face value
of the  outstanding  Debentures,  excluding  accrued  interest.  At the  time of
confirmation  of the proposed  Plan of  Reorganization,  Dynacore is expected to
have  remaining  working  capital of  approximately  $6.0  million  after  fees,
expenses  and certain  escrow  items  required in the Sale  pursuant to the Sale
Agreement.

The filed Plan also proposes  that when the  reorganized  Dynacore  emerges from
Chapter 11: (i) Debenture holders and other unsecured creditors will receive 25%
of the equity of the reorganized  corporation,  3 out of 7 seats on the Board of
Directors,  and 40% of a trust (the "Patent Litigation  Trust"), to be formed to
pursue the patent  litigations of Dynacore more fully described below in Item 2,
(ii) holders of the  preferred  stock,  par value $1.00 per share,  will receive
23.5% of the  equity  of the  reorganized  corporation,  and 3.5% of the  Patent
Litigation  Trust,  (iii) holders of the common stock, par value $.25 per share,
will receive 41.5% of the equity of the  reorganized  corporation,  (iv) current
officer management will receive 10% of the equity of the reorganized corporation
as part of a settlement of certain  officer  administrative  claims that include
employment contract cancellation and other contractual  entitlements and (v) the
remaining 56.5% interest in the Patent Litigation Trust shall be retained by the
reorganized  Dynacore.  Under the Plan, all options to purchase shares of common
stock of the Company will be cancelled.

The Plan  contemplates  that the beneficial  interests in the Patent  Litigation
Trust will be transferable and tradeable. In addition,  pursuant to the proposed
Plan,  Dynacore will distribute to its then  shareholders  75% of the first $100
million of net proceeds,  if any, received on account of its beneficial interest
in the Patent Litigation Trust after adjustment for corporate tax and payment of
all patent litigation expenses.

The accompanying  unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 2000 do not
give effect of any adjustments that may result from the bankruptcy proceedings.

<PAGE>

Excluding the European  Operations and the Company's domestic video conferencing
operation  (MINX)  which was  discontinued  on October 8,  1999,  the  Company's
revenue and operating loss were $22 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively, and
$22 thousand  and $4.8  million,  respectively,  for the quarter and nine months
ended  September 30, 2000.  Excluding the European  Operations and the Company's
MINX operations,  the Company's  consolidated revenue and operating loss were $0
and $1.1 million,  respectively,  and $0 and $3.8 million, respectively, for the
quarter and nine months ended September 30 1999.

3.  Inventories

On June 30, 2000, the Company included all of its remaining inventory as part of
the Sale. The inventory at December 31, 1999, consisted of :
                                                 Dec.  31, 1999

                                                     $1,563

4.  Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is a defendant in lawsuits  generally  incidental
to its business.  The Company is not currently  aware of any such suit which, if
decided adversely to the Company, would result in a material liability.

5.   Net Income (Loss) to Common Share

Net income (loss) applicable to common share is as follows:

6.   Comprehensive Income

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Statement No. 130 established new rules
for the  reporting  and  display of  comprehensive  income  and its  components.
Comprehensive  income is net income,  plus certain other items that are recorded
directly to stockholders'  equity.  The only such items currently  applicable to
the Company are  foreign  currency  translation  and minimum  pension  liability
adjustments.  The Company  adopted this Statement in August 1998. On this basis,
these nonowner  (increases)  decreases to stockholders'  deficit,  including net
income or loss,  for the quarter and nine months ended  September 30, 2000,  and
1999,  totaled $1.3 million and $49.7 million,  respectively  and $(4.6) million
and $(8.0) million, respectively.

8.   Operating Segments

In 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 131,  "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information."
Through  the time of the  consummation  of the Sale,  Dynacore  was  principally
engaged  in the  development,  acquisition,  marketing,  servicing,  and  system
integration of computer and communication products - both hardware and software.
These  products and services are for integrated  computer and  telecommunication
network  systems.  The Company's Chief Operating  Decision Maker (CODM) assesses
performance and allocates resources based on a geographic  reporting  structure.
Through  the time of the  consummation  of the  Sale,  substantially  all of the
Company's  operations  consisted  of ten European  subsidiaries  and to a lesser
extent,  domestic  operations.  Reportable operating segments under SFAS No. 131
include  the  Company's  subsidiaries  residing in Sweden,  the United  Kingdom,
France,  and  Belgium.  Each of these  subsidiaries  functioned  as  value-added
resellers.

Included in "Corporate and Other" are general  corporate  activities and related
expenses and activities from other foreign  subsidiaries.  Assets are those that
are used or generated  exclusively by each operating  segment.  The eliminations
required to determine the consolidated  amounts shown below consist  principally
of the  elimination  of  intercompany  receivables  for  loans  provided  by the
operating segments to the parent entity.

The  following  table  presents  certain  information  regarding  the  Company's
reportable  operating  segments  for the quarter and nine  months  period  ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999:

9.   Acquisitions

On July 27, 1999,  the Company,  through its newly formed  subsidiary,  Corebyte
Inc.,   conditionally   acquired  (the  "Corebyte   Acquisition")  the  Corebyte
communication and networking software product family (the "Corebyte  Products").
The acquisition was accomplished pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, by and
among the Company, SF Digital,  LLC and John Engstrom  ("Engstrom"),  dated July
27,  1999.   Consideration  provided  for  the  Corebyte  assets  comprised  the
following:  (i) options to purchase up to one million  shares of common stock of
the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, (ii) options to purchase an
additional  one  million  shares of common  stock of the  Company at an exercise
price equal to 80% of the closing price per share of common stock of the Company
on July 27, 2000, the first  anniversary of the  acquisition,  provided that Mr.
Engstrom is still employed by the Company on such date;  (iii) up to twenty-five
percent of the  common  stock in  Corebyte,  Inc.;  and (iv)  $75,000 in cash as
reimbursement   for  certain  research  and  development   expenses.   All  such
consideration  is being held by the Company pending final resolution of Engstrom
v. Futureshare.com, LLC, a litigation. Under the agreement in principle with the
Official  Unsecured  Creditors'  Committee,  all options to  purchase  shares of
common stock of the Company will be cancelled.
<PAGE>

On June 30, 2000, the United States District Court for the Southern  District of
New York dismissed,  without prejudice,  for lack of subject matter jurisdiction
John A. Engstrom v.  Futureshare.com  LLC (99 Civ. 3824), the pending litigation
concerning  the ownership  status of the  intellectual  property  underlying the
Corebyte  Networks(TM) product family of software licensed on an exclusive basis
to the  Registrant  in July 1999 from  Engstrom.  The  Court  cited the  general
principle under the Federal Copyright Act that works are subject to copyright by
the mere act of creation,  subject to the notable work for hire  exception.  The
work for hire  doctrine  provides  that if an employee who creates a work within
the  scope of his or her  employment,  such work is  automatically  owned by the
employer. The Court indicated that the parties did not dispute the chronology of
events in this  action.  The  software  was  created in November  1997,  one and
one-half years before futureshare.com LLC (the "LLC") was formed. Therefore, the
Court  concluded that Engstrom could not have been an employee of the LLC at the
time of creation of the software and there is no good faith basis for the LLC to
allege  that the  software  is within  the scope of the work for hire  doctrine.
Accordingly,  the Court found that absent a transfer of rights,  Engstrom is the
sole owner of the software.  The Court further indicated that whether a transfer
of exclusive rights in the software and/or the extent of any transfer, otherwise
within  Engstrom's  right,  has  been   contractually   modified  turns  on  the
interpretation of the language of the operating agreement of the LLC. As to this
question,  the Court  indicated that it is purely an issue of state law and does
not implicate the Federal Copyright Act.  Accordingly,  the Court dismissed this
action without prejudice to the right to file a state action.

Corebyte  Inc.  is led by John  Engstrom,  a pioneer of online and  accomplished
enterprise  groupware and e-mail  service  provider.  Corebyte is an intelligent
browser-based   enterprise-to-enterprise   networking  system.   With  a  single

     Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
Results of Operations  (For the Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000
and 1999)

Overview

On June 30, 2000, the Company  completed the sale of its European  Operations to
Datapoint Newco I Limited  ("Newco"),  a United Kingdom  corporation  affiliated
with CallCentric,  for $49,500 in cash, less certain  adjustments,  in the event
that the aggregate  shareholder's  deficit of the European  Operations  exceeded
$10,000 ("the Sale").  As a result of the Sale,  the Company  recorded a gain of
$50.9 million ($49.2 million was recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and
$1.7 million was recorded in the quarter ended  September 30, 2000 and primarily
represented the partial refund of a $2.0 million  deposit  escrowed in the event
that the aggregate shareholder's deficit exceeded $10.0 million).

The Company had an operating loss of $1.1 million and net income of $1.3 million
for the quarter ended  September 30, 2000 compared to an operating  loss of $2.6
million  and a net loss of $4.9  million  for the same period of the prior year.
For the nine months ended  September 30, 2000, the Company had an operating loss
of $2.6 million and net income of $48.9 million compared to an operating loss of
$2.7  million  and a net loss of $6.7  million  for the same period of the prior
year.
<PAGE>

Excluding the European  Operations and the Company's domestic video conferencing
operation  (MINX)  which was  discontinued  on October 8,  1999,  the  Company's
revenue and operating loss were $22 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively, and
$22 thousand  and $4.8  million,  respectively,  for the quarter and nine months
ended  September 30, 2000.  Excluding the European  Operations and the Company's
MINX operations,  the Company's  consolidated revenue and operating loss were $0
and $1.1 million,  respectively,  and $0 and $3.8 million, respectively, for the
quarter and nine months ended September 30 1999.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company did not
repurchase  in the  public  market  any of its 8 7/8%  convertible  subordinated
debentures.  For the quarter ended  September 30 1999,  the Company also did not
repurchase any of its 8 7/8% convertible subordinated  debentures.  However, for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company repurchased  approximately
$721  thousand  face value of its 8 7/8%  convertible  subordinated  debentures.
These purchases resulted in an extraordinary gain of approximately $423 thousand
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Patents and Trademarks

Dynacore  owns certain  patents,  copyrights,  trademarks  and trade  secrets in
network technologies, which it considers valuable proprietary assets.

Video Conferencing Patents

Dynacore,  along with John  Frassanito  and David A. Monroe,  owns United States
Patent  Nos.   4,710,917  and  4,847,829   related  to  video   teleconferencing
technology.  Dynacore had filed infringement  actions against several companies.
All actions were dismissed after an adverse result at trial and on appeal.
<PAGE>

Multi-speed Networking Patents

 Dynacore is also the owner of United States Patent Nos. 5,008,879 and 5,077,732
related to network  technology.  The Company  believes  these patents cover most
products  introduced  by  various  suppliers  to  the  networking  industry  and
dominates  certain  types  of  dual-speed   technology  on  networking  recently
introduced  by various  industry  leaders.  Dynacore has asserted one or both of
these patents in the United States  District  Court for the Eastern  District of
New York against a number of parties:

     (1)  Datapoint  Corporation*  v.  Standard  Micro-Systems,  Inc.  and Intel
Corporation,  No.  C.V.-96-1685;

     (2) Datapoint  Corporation*  v. Cisco  Systems,  Plaintree  Systems  Corp.,
Accton     Technologies     Corp.,      Cabletron     Systems,     Inc.,     Bay
Networks,  Inc., Crosscom Corp. and Assante  Technologies,  Inc. No. CV 96 4534;

     (3) Datapoint Corporation* v. Dayna Communications, Inc., Sun Microsystems,
Inc.,  Adaptec, Inc. International Business Machines  Corp.,  Lantronix,
SVEC  America  Computer  Corporation,   and  Nbase
Communications,          No.CV 96 6334; and

     (4) Datapoint  Corporation* v. Standard Microsystems Corp. and Intel Corp.,
individually, and as representatives of the class manufacturers,  vendors  and
users  of  Fast  Ethernet-compliant,  dual protocol local-area network
products, No. CV-96-03819.

* The Company expects to make a motion with the Court to reflect the name change
to Dynacore Holdings Corporation.

These  actions  were  consolidated  for  discovery,  and for  purposes  of claim
construction.  On January 20,  1998, a hearing  commenced  in the United  States
District   Court  that   concluded  on  January  23,  1998  during  which  claim
construction was submitted to a Special Master.  The Special Master's report was
issued  April of 1998  adverse to  Dynacore.  The  Company had filed two sets of
objections to certain  portions of this report.  The objections  were overruled.
These  objections will now have to be resolved at the Appellate Court level. The
briefing is completed. Both patents have been submitted to the Patent Office for
re-examination.  An adverse action was rendered on one patent, which the Company
is contesting,  and a favorable action was rendered on the other. The appeal has
been stayed pending the complete outcome of the re-examination proceedings.

The above  actions  represent the  Company's  continuing  efforts to license and
enforce  its  multi-speed   networking  patents  through   negotiations   and/or
litigation.  The Company  believes that these patents  provide broad coverage in
multi-speed  networking  technology  and  present  the  opportunity  for further
royalty bearing licenses. While such royalty bearing licenses and enforcement of
its  patents  may create  long-term  value for its  shareholders,  the  ultimate
outcome of the above litigation, appeals with respect to the litigation, and /or
negotiations cannot be determined at this time.

Operating expenses (excluding cost of revenue and restructuring) for the quarter
and nine months ended  September 30, 2000,  were $1.1 million and $17.2 million,
respectively, compared with $11.7 million and $28.2 million for the same periods
of the prior year. The Company did not incur any restructuring  expenses for the
quarter and nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000.  For the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1999, the Company incurred  restructuring expenses of
$0 and $813 thousand, respectively.
<PAGE>

Excluding  the  European  Operations  and  the  Company's  MINX  operation,  the
Company's  operating expenses (excluding cost of revenue and restructuring) were
$1.1  million and $4.8  million,  respectively,  for the quarter and nine months
ended  September 30, 2000.  Excluding the European  Operations and the Company's
MINX  operation,  the  Company's  operating  expenses were $1.1 million and $3.8
million, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Non-operating  expenses for the quarter ended  September 30, 2000,  consisted of
interest earned of $723 thousand.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
non-operating  expenses consisted primarily of interest expense of $2.0 million,
and  interest  earned of $0.9  million.  For the quarter  and nine months  ended
September 30, 2000, as a result of the Sale, the Company recorded a gain of $1.7
and $50.9  million,  respectively.  Non-operating  income and  expenses  for the
quarter ended  September 30, 1999 consisted  primarily of interest  expense $1.3
million and foreign currency losses of $196 thousand.  For the nine months ended
September 30, 1999,  non-operating  income and expenses  consisted  primarily of
interest expense of $3.9 million and foreign currency gains of $114 thousand and
interest income of $124 thousand.

During the quarter and for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company
did  not  repurchase  in  the  public  market  any  of  its 8  7/8%  convertible
subordinated  debentures.  For the quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Company
also did not repurchase any of its 8 7/8% convertible  subordinated  debentures.
However,  for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company  repurchased
approximately  $721 thousand face value of its 8 7/8%  convertible  subordinated
debentures.  These purchases  resulted in an extraordinary gain of approximately
$423 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Financial Condition

Consistent with the  determination  of its Board of Directors to shift the focus
of the  Company  towards  acquiring,  developing  and  marketing  products  with
internet  and   e-commerce   applications,   the  Company  and  several  of  its
subsidiaries  entered into that certain Stock  Purchase  Agreement,  dated as of
July 31, 1999 (the "Reboot Agreement"),  with Reboot Systems, Inc. ("Reboot") an
investor  group lead by Blake Thomas,  the former  President of the Company,  to
sell the European  subsidiaries of the Company which comprise  substantially all
of the  Company's  operations  (the  "European  Operations").  Subsequent to the
termination of the Reboot  Agreement,  as a result of the lack of performance by
Reboot,  the Company  entered into a Letter of Intent,  dated  January 26, 2000,
with the European based  CallCentric Ltd.  ("CallCentric")  to sell the European
Operations.  Pursuant  to an  agreement  dated as of April 19,  2000 (the  "Sale
Agreement"),  on June 30, 2000,  after receipt of approval  from the  Bankruptcy
Court, the Company sold (the "Sale") its European  Operations to Datapoint Newco
I Limited ("Newco"),  a United Kingdom corporation  affiliated with CallCentric,
for $49,500 in cash,  less certain  adjustments  in the event that the aggregate
shareholder's  deficit of the European  Operations  exceeded  $10,000.  The Sale
Agreement  contemplated,  among other  things,  that the Company  would file for
reorganization  pursuant  to Chapter 11 of the United  States  Bankruptcy  Code,
which was filed on May 3, 2000 and that the sale of the European  Operations  to
Newco would be subject to higher and better offers,  if any, and the approval of
the Bankruptcy  Court.  The Bankruptcy  Court approved the sale on June 15, 2000
and the sale was consummated on June 30, 2000.

The  Company  recorded a gain of $50.9  million  as a result of the Sale  ($49.2
million was  recorded in the  quarter  ended June 30, 2000 and $1.7  million was
recorded in the quarter ended  September 30, 2000 and primarily  represented the
partial  refund  of a $2.0  million  deposit  escrowed  in the  event  that  the
aggregate  shareholder's  deficit  exceeded  $10.0  million).   Based  upon  the
allocation of the purchase price among the assets to be transferred in the Sale,
the Company believes that it has sufficient tax basis in excess of book basis of
assets sold and net operating loss carryovers to avoid income taxes on the Sale.
<PAGE>

On May 3, 2000, the Company filed for  reorganization  pursuant to Chapter 11 of
the United  States  Bankruptcy  Code for the  District  of  Delaware.  (Case No.
00-1853(PJW)).  None of the  Company's  European  subsidiaries  were part of the
Chapter 11 filing.  Under Chapter 11,  certain debts of the Company prior to the
filing are stayed while the Company continues business as Debtor-in-Possession.

These  liabilities  are  reflected in the  September  30, 2000 balance  sheet as
liabilities subject to compromise and consist of the following:

 8 7/8% Convertible subordinated debentures                       $54,960
 Accrued  interest on 8 7/8% Convertible subordinated debentures    4,503
 Accounts payable, net of subsidiary debt                           1,598
 Priority claims                                                      418
                                                                  -------
                                                                  $61,479

Since  December 1, 1999 the Company has been in default of its interest  payment
obligation on its Debentures. As such, interest of $4.5 million has been accrued
for the  period  June 2, 1999  through  the time of  Chapter 11 filing on May 3,
2000.  Interest  for the  period  May 3,  2000  through  September  30,  2000 is
approximately $2.0 million and has not been accrued.

On  June  27,  2000,  the  Company  announced  its  intention  to file a Plan of
Reorganization  pursuant  to Chapter 11 of the  Bankruptcy  Code in  substantial
conformity  with an agreement in principle  reached with the Official  Unsecured
Creditors'  Committee appointed in the corporation's  Chapter 11 case pending in
the United  States  Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of  Delaware.  (Case No.
00-1853(PJW)).  The Company  thereafter filed an Amended Plan of  Reorganization
("the  Plan")  and  a  Second  Amended  Disclosure  Statement  (the  "Disclosure
Statement").  By order dated October 17, 2000 the Bankruptcy  Court approved the
Disclosure Statement and the Company is currently soliciting  acceptances of the
Plan. The Bankruptcy  Court has scheduled a hearing on the  confirmation  of the
Plan for December 5, 2000.

The agreement in principle,  which is subject to among other things, approval by
creditors and equity  security  holders and approval by the Bankruptcy  Court of
the Plan,  provides for the distribution of approximately  $34.8 million in cash
to holders of the  outstanding 8 7/8%  Convertible  Subordinated  Debentures due
2006 (the  "Debentures") and other unsecured  creditors from the proceeds of the
sale to Newco.  Such cash  distribution  is  expected  to result in  holders  of
Debentures receiving a distribution equal to approximately 60% of the face value
of the  outstanding  Debentures,  excluding  accrued  interest.  At the  time of
confirmation  of the proposed  Plan of  Reorganization,  Dynacore is expected to
have  remaining  working  capital of  approximately  $6.0  million  after  fees,
expenses  and certain  escrow  items  required in the Sale  pursuant to the Sale
Agreement.
<PAGE>

The filed Plan also proposes  that when the  reorganized  Dynacore  emerges from
Chapter 11: (i) Debenture holders and other unsecured creditors will receive 25%
of the equity of the reorganized  corporation,  3 out of 7 seats on the Board of
Directors,  and 40% of a trust (the "Patent Litigation  Trust"), to be formed to
pursue the patent  litigations of Dynacore more fully described below in Item 2,
(ii) holders of the  preferred  stock,  par value $1.00 per share,  will receive
23.5% of the  equity  of the  reorganized  corporation,  and 3.5% of the  Patent
Litigation  Trust,  (iii) holders of the common stock, par value $.25 per share,
will receive 41.5% of the equity of the  reorganized  corporation,  (iv) current
officer management will receive 10% of the equity of the reorganized corporation
as part of a settlement of certain  officer  administrative  claims that include
employment contract cancellation and other contractual  entitlements and (v) the
remaining 56.5% interest in the Patent Litigation Trust shall be retained by the
reorganized  Dynacore.  Under the Plan, all options to purchase shares of common
stock of the Company will be cancelled.

The Plan  contemplates  that the beneficial  interests in the Patent  Litigation
Trust will be transferable and tradeable. In addition,  pursuant to the proposed
Plan,  Dynacore will distribute to its then  shareholders  75% of the first $100
million of net proceeds,  if any, received on account of its beneficial interest
in the Patent Litigation Trust after adjustment for corporate tax and payment of
all patent litigation expenses.

During the nine months ended  September 30, 2000,  the  Company's  cash and cash
equivalents decreased $2.1 million.

As of September 30, 2000,  the Company had  restricted  cash of $44.6 million as
compared to $298 thousand as of December 31, 1999. For the period ended December
31, 1999,  the balances  were  restricted  primarily to cover  various  lines of
credits,  reflected  as payables to banks.  For the period ended  September  30,
2000,  while the Company has physical control of the cash received from the sale
of  European  Operations  and  subsequent  earnings,   the  balances  have  been
classified  as  restricted,  pending the  confirmation  of the proposed  Plan of
Reorganization  and  the  related  final  cash  distribution  to  the  Company's
creditors.

During the nine months ended  September 30, 2000, the Company's net cash used in
investing  activities,  excluding  the  sale  of the  European  Operations,  was
approximately $1.3 million which included fixed asset purchases  (primarily test
equipment, spares, and internally-used equipment).

Net cash  provided by  financing  activities  was $3.3  million  during the nine
months ended September 30, 2000,  which primarily  included  borrowings of $46.9
million offset by payments of $50.5 million.

Reorganization/Restructuring Costs
(In thousands)

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company did not
incur any restructuring costs for employee termination costs. During the quarter
and  nine  months  months  ended  September  30,  1999,  the  Company   incurred
restructuring  costs of $0 and $813,  respectively.  These costs  related to the
downsizing  at the Company's  San Antonio  headquarters.  At September 30, 2000,
accrued but unpaid  restructuring  costs were  approximately $47. Such costs are
expected to be paid through the fourth quarter of calendar year 2000.

Restructuring  charges are not recorded until specific  employees are determined
(and notified of  termination)  by  management  in  accordance  with its overall
restructuring plan. Employee  termination payments are generally paid out over a
period of time rather than as one lump sum.

Year 2000 Compliance

The Year 2000 Issue was the result of computer  programs being written using two
digits  rather than four to define the  applicable  year.  Any of the  Company's
computer programs or hardware that had date-sensitive software or embedded chips
may have  recognized  a date  using "00" as the year 1900  rather  than the year
2000.  This could have resulted in a system failure or  miscalculations  causing
disruptions of operations,  including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions, generate invoices, or engage in similar normal business
activities.  Based on the Company's  assessments,  the Company  modified  and/or
replaced  significant  portions of hardware and  software so that those  systems
would properly utilize dates beyond December 31, 1999.

The Company  also  assessed  and modified  and/or  replaced its non  Information
Technology  ("IT") operating  systems to insure  compliance with Year 2000 which
included  those  primarily  related to the office  and  facilities'  environment
(telephone systems, security systems, etc.).

As a result of its efforts, Dynacore was prepared for the transition to the Year
2000 and did not  experience  any  significant  malfunctions  or  errors  in its
operating or business systems when the date changed from 1999 to 2000.  Dynacore
is not currently aware of any year 2000 problems that have  materially  affected
its customers or  suppliers.  Based on  operations  since  January 1, 2000,  the
Company does not  anticipate  any material  disruption  in its  operations  as a
result of any  continuing  Year 2000 issues.  However it is possible that latent
problems may arise in the future.  The Company  believes  that any such problems
are likely to be minor and correctable.  Dynacore's aggregate costs for its Year
2000 actions were approximately $1.2 million.
<PAGE>

New European Currency

In January  1999,  certain  European  countries  introduced a new currency  unit
called the "euro".  In conjunction  with the  preparation for the year 2000, the
Company also modified  and/or adapted  systems  designed to properly  handle the
euro. The costs  required to be able to accommodate  the euro were combined with
costs of becoming year 2000  compliant,  and therefore not easily  identifiable.
However,  they are not  considered to be so significant so as to have a material
effect on the Company's business.
