                        INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   1.      The financial statements furnished herein reflect all adjustments,
           consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of
           management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for
           the periods for which they are presented.  Such results, however,
           are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
           full year.  The accounting policies followed by the Company are set
           forth in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the
           Company's Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996,
           previously filed with the Commission.

   2.      Accounting Changes - In February 1997, the Financial Accounting
           Standards Board issued Statement No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), "Earnings per
           Share" which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure 
           requirements for earnings per share.  The Company will be required
           to adopt this new statement in the fourth quarter of 1997 and all
           prior period earnings per share data will be restated to conform
           with the provisions of SFAS 128.  Based on a preliminary evaluation
           of this statement's requirements, the Company does not expect the
           per share amounts reported under SFAS 128 to be materially different
           than those calculated and presented under Accounting Principles
           Board Opinion No. 15.
           
   3.      Subsequent Event - Effective July 1, 1997, the Company acquired all
           of the outstanding equity of  Q.S., Inc., a company which provides
           client information management software and related services to
           public health agencies in the U.S.  The acquisition was accounted
           for as a purchase and, accordingly, the Company will consolidate the
           results of operation of Q.S., Inc. from the date of acquisition.
           The purchase price was $3.5 million with $2.0 million paid at
           closing and the balance due in three equal annual installments.

   4.      Subsequent Event - On July 31, 1997, IQ Software Corporation ("IQ")
           assigned to the Company a $1.8 million note of DayStar Digital,
           Inc., the payment of which was guaranteed by the Company and secured
           by a pledge to IQ of shares of common stock of IQ owned by the
           Company.  In consideration of the assignment, the Company paid $1.8
           million to IQ and the shares of stock were released to the Company.

   5.      Restated Amounts - Certain amounts contained in the consolidated
           income statement for the six month period ended June 30, 1997
           include amounts which have been restated for the first three months
           of 1997.  Such restated amounts are related to changes made during
           the second quarter to the previously reported results of operation
           for the first quarter of 1997 of PaySys International, Inc., a
           minority owned business which the Company accounts for on the equity
           method.  The restatement was related to a change in PaySys's
           revenue recognition policy.  This restatement caused investment
           income to decrease by $569,000 and, consequently, net income
           decreased by $569,000.

  ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
           FINANCIAL CONDITION

  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  Sales - Revenue from operations is derived from two major industry segments:  
  technology-related products and services, and health care services.  For the
  three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, net sales were
  $5,320,000 and $10,428,000, respectively, a decline of 18 percent and 17
  percent, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods last year.
  Although the Company's subsidiaries in the technology sector experienced
  increases in revenue year-to-year, revenue derived from health care services
  declined.  Part of the decline is because the Company sold a small health
  care subsidiary in September 1996.  In addition, the Company's health care
  services subsidiary, PsyCare





                                                                          Page 5

America, had fewer hospital based programs in operation in the first half of
1997 as compared to last year and on-going price pressure in the managed care
environment further reduced the revenue contribution from each program.
PsyCare is negotiating to open programs in additional hospitals over the
balance of the year and is reviewing alternative programs and services to deal
with the changing health care environment.  There continues to be good demand
for the Company's Christian based counseling and treatment services but the
traditional method of delivering these services through hospital-based programs
is being impacted by the managed care structure.  During this transition,
revenue and profit contribution from the health care business will likely be
lower than for the comparable periods in 1996.

Cost of sales - Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was higher in the
second quarter and first half of 1997 compared to the same periods last year.
The change reflects higher personnel costs in 1997 at two of the Company's
technology subsidiaries.  The Company added more technical personnel to support
increased sales of products and services.  In addition, industry-wide demand
for technical trainers and programmers increased compensation rates for
personnel and the use of higher paid independent contractors and consultants.
In addition, the PsyCare subsidiary had lower margins due to continued price
pressure by hospitals to reduce reimbursement rates for programs and services.

Operating Expenses - Total marketing, general and administrative and research
and development expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 were
$2,602,000 and  $5,311,000, respectively, which were 27 and 20 percent lower
than the amounts spent in the comparable periods in 1996.  In the health care
services sector, marketing and general and administrative expenses declined
significantly reflecting fewer program locations, a reduction in facility and
personnel costs, and more efficient operations.  On the other hand, marketing
and G&A expenses increased year-to-year at several technology subsidiaries to
support higher revenue levels and increased sales and marketing activities.

Interest Income - Net interest income increased 59 and 84 percent in the three
and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the same periods last year.  The
interest earned on notes receivables in 1997 was at a higher average interest
rate than for the comparable periods in 1996.  The Company also earned interest
on money market funds and certificates of deposit in the first half of this
year.  In the comparable periods last year, the Company had interest expense
which offset in part the interest income earned in these periods on the notes
receivable.  There was no interest expense in the current year since the
Company repaid all its bank debt in 1996.

Investment Income - In the second quarter ended June 30, 1997, the Company
realized a gain of $217,000 on the sale of 104,484 shares of common stock of
OrCAD, Inc., a former subsidiary of the Company.  Included in the six month
figures for 1997 is a first quarter gain of $1,865,000 on the sale of 50,537
shares of common stock of PaySys International, Inc., a privately held firm in
which the Company is the largest shareholder.  The PaySys stock which the
Company sold represented approximately 6 percent of the common stock of PaySys  
which the Company owns or has rights to own.  Offset against these gains were   
losses of $721,000  and $1,674,000 in the three and six month periods ended    
June 30, 1997, respectively, representing the Company's pro rata share of the
losses of several private businesses, including PaySys, in which the Company's
investment is accounted for on the equity method.  In the second quarter and
six month periods for 1996, investment income includes a gain of $3,320,000 on
the sale of a portion of the Company's holdings in IQ Software Corporation and
the second quarter 1996 investment income includes additional income of
$594,000 representing the Company's pro rata share of the earnings of PaySys.

Minority Interest - This amount represents the pro rata ownership share of
minority shareholders in certain non wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.





                                                                          Page 6
<PAGE>   7


Common Shares - There was a decline of 4 percent in the weighted average number
of shares outstanding in the three and six months periods ended June 30, 1997
compared to the prior year due to the Company's share repurchase program.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

In the first six months of 1997, the principal sources of cash were $2,000,000
from the sale of 50,537 shares of common stock of PaySys, $948,000 from the sale
of 104,484 shares of OrCAD common stock and $246,000 from payment of a note. 
The Company used cash to fund $2,782,000 in investments (both debt and equity)
in two software companies, to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock,
and to purchase computers and other equipment principally related to expanding
training classroom facilities at the InterQuad Services subsidiary in the United
Kingdom.

Since December 31, 1996, the Company's unrealized gain in available-for-sale
securities has declined by approximately $2.7 million as a result of the
Company's sale of its OrCAD stock in June 1997 as well as a decline in the
trading price of common stock of IQ Software Corporation, in which the Company
continues to own 157,801 shares.

Subsequent to June 30, 1997, the Company acquired a small software company,
Q.S., Inc., which is involved in the same market as the Company's Public Health
Software Systems subsidiary.  Cash used for the transaction, net of cash
acquired, was approximately $750,000.   The Company also paid $1.8 million to IQ
Software Corporation ("IQ") in consideration of the assignment to the Company of
a $1.8 million note of DayStar Digital, Inc., the payment of which was
guaranteed by the Company and secured by shares of common stock of IQ owned by
ISC.  The shares held as collateral were released to the Company.

The Company believes it has adequate working capital and access to additional
cash through borrowings or sales of marketable securities to support its
operations and other activities.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company does not invest excess funds in derivative financial instruments or
other market risk sensitive instruments for the purposes of managing foreign
currency exchange rate risk or for any other purposes.   Further, the Company's
business activities do not involve foreign currency transactions.

ITEM 4.  RESULTS OF VOTES OF SECURITY HOLDERS

At the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 6, 1997, the
shareholders elected J. Leland Strange, Donald A. McMahon, James V. Napier, John
B. Peatman and Parker H. Petit as directors of the Company.  The directors were
elected by the following votes: J. Leland Strange (4,422,595 For, 97,412
Withheld); Donald A. McMahon (4,426,320 For, 93,687 Withheld); James V. Napier
(4,426,320 For, 93687 Withheld); John B. Peatman (4,426,320 For, 93,687
Withheld) and Parker H. Petit (4,426,220 For, 93,787 Withheld). The shareholders
also approved an amendment to the Bylaws to provide for the classification of
the Board of Directors by a vote of 2,905,528 For and 377,782 Against and an
amendment to the Company's 1991 Stock incentive Plan increasing the number of
shares that may be issued under the Plan to 925,000 shares by a vote of
2,563,380 For and 437,542 Against.
