Board of Trustees
Computer Horizons Corp. Employee Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of Computer Horizons Corp. Employee Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The fund information in the statement of
changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the changes in net assets available
for plan benefits of each fund. The fund information has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1996 and 1995
NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of Computer Horizons Corp. Employee Savings Plan
(the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer
to the Plan Agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution employee profit-sharing plan, covering
all eligible employees.
The Plan was established effective April 1, 1983, and amended as of January
1, 1984 and May 31, 1989, to be a qualified profit sharing plan under
Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a), with a qualified cash or deferred
arrangement under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k).
The Plan was further amended and restated effective January 1, 1990 to
comply with the requirements of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and all
applicable Federal laws subsequently enacted and relating thereto. A
favorable determination letter dated September 1995 was received from the
Internal Revenue Service.
Contributions
Participants may elect to make pretax contributions in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan. The Plan's sponsor, Computer Horizons Corp. (the
"Company"), matches participants' pretax contributions in accordance with
the provisions of the January 1, 1990 Plan Agreement.
Participant Accounts and Vesting
Separate accounts are maintained for each participant's contributions and
earnings thereon. The participant may direct that the account be invested
in one or more Funds permitted by the Plan (Note C). Upon termination of
employment, a participant is entitled to 100% of the value of his Salary
Deferral account balance (pretax contributions of three to fifteen percent
of compensation not to exceed maximum as specified in agreement), Voluntary
Post Tax account balance (post-tax contributions of one to ten percent of
compensation) and Rollover Account balance (participants' qualifying
rollover distributions), plus a specified percentage of their Employer
Matching account balance (participants' share of employer matching
contributions) based upon the vesting provisions of the Plan (25% vested
after three years of service, 50% vested after four years of service, 100%
vested after five years of service). Forfeitures resulting from application
of the vesting provisions are maintained separately by the Plan and are
used to pay plan expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
December 31, 1996 and 1995
NOTE A (continued)
Withdrawals and Distributions Upon
Termination of Employment
Upon termination of employment for any reason, a participant's account
balance or periodic payments thereof will be distributed to the participant
or designated beneficiary, at their option. However, if the value of a
participant's account is greater than $3,500, the participant's account
will not be distributed before his normal retirement date without the
written election of the participant. A participant may modify an election
thereafter.
Loans to Participants
The Plan provides for loans to participants to a maximum of the lesser of
(1) $50,000 or (2) 50% of the participant's account balance. The loans are
payable over a maximum of five years unless the loan is used to acquire a
principal residence, in which case the maximum term is fifteen years with
interest as specified in the Plan.
Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company reserves the
right to terminate the Plan at any time. Termination of the Plan shall
result in discontinuance of all future Plan contributions and in full and
immediate vesting for each participant of the entire amount standing to
their credit; there shall not be any forfeitures with respect to any
participant for any reason.
Administrative Expense
All administrative expenses, charged by the Plan's Custodian, are borne by
the Plan.
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain 1995 items have been reclassified to conform with 1996
classifications.

Computer Horizons Corp. Employee Savings Plan
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
December 31, 1996 and 1995
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles as applied to profit sharing plans and in accordance with the
terms of the trust agreement. The assets of the Plan are valued at quoted
market value, except for the Guaranteed Fund which is valued at contract
value, which approximates fair value. The Plan is subject to certain
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA").
NOTE C - INVESTMENT OF FUNDS
All contributions are remitted to the respective fund managers and
invested, at the election of the participant, in one or a combination of
funds. The funds available to participants from Merrill Lynch are the
Guaranteed Fund, various mutual stock funds and the Computer Horizons Corp.
Common Stock Fund. The following is a brief description of the funds
available.
Guaranteed Fund
The Guaranteed Fund is intended to provide fixed income with minimal risk.
Contributions to the Guaranteed Fund are invested primarily under
guaranteed investment contracts or contracts with one or more insurance
companies guaranteeing an annual effective interest rate for specified
periods. The guaranteed investment contracts are included in the financial
statements at contract value, which approximates fair value, as reported to
the Plan by the insurance companies. The amounts remitted to insurance
companies for guaranteed income contracts become the assets of those
companies, which, in turn, assume an obligation to fulfill the contract
terms. The ultimate ability to repay principal and interest is dependent
upon the financial stability of the insurance companies.
Guaranteed investment contracts at December 31 consist of the following:

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes and schedule of reportable transactions are presented
for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the

have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the
