NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1998
(Unaudited)

1.  Basis of Presentation

     The information at March 31, 1998 and for the three months ended 
March 31, 1998 and April 30, 1997 is unaudited, but includes all 
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the 
management of Horizons Technology, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company" or 
"Horizons") considers necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's 
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods 
presented.  The results of the interim periods are not necessarily 
indicative of results for the full year.  Effective January 1, 1998, 
Horizons' January 31 fiscal year-end has been changed to coincide with the 
Titan Corporation's fiscal year end of December 31.  Accordingly, 
Horizons' first quarter-end for 1998 has been changed to March 31, 1998.  
The comparative prior year interim data is reported as of April 30, 1997.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make 
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recorded in the 
financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results may differ 
from those recorded using such estimates.

Net Income Per Share

     In fiscal year 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128").  Under 
the provisions of SFAS 128, basic earnings per share is calculated based 
on the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the 
period.  Diluted earnings per share also gives effect to the dilutive 
effect of stock options (calculated based on the treasury stock method).  
All prior periods have been restated.  A reconciliation of shares used in 
the per share calculation is as follows:

2.  Taxation

     The estimated annual effective tax rates for 1998 and 1997 were 45% 
and 38%, respectively. The difference between the federal statutory rate 
and the estimated annual effective rate is primarily attributable to state 
taxes and other nondeductible items.

3.  Subsequent Event

     On June 30, 1998, the Company consummated a merger with the Titan 
Corporation ("Titan"), a public company.  Titan issued approximately 
3,200,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all outstanding shares of 
Horizons stock based on exchange ratios of approximately .37 and .82 
shares of Titan's common stock for each share of Horizons' common stock 
and Horizons' preferred stock, respectively.

4.  Discontinued Operation

     In December 1997, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a plan to 
wind down and exit its commercial software business (Information Systems 
segment), in order to focus the Company's resources entirely on its 
profitable government information technologies business or Systems 
Engineering segment.  Accordingly, the Information Systems segment has 
been accounted for as a discontinued operation for all periods presented 
in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 (APB 30), 
which among other provisions, anticipates that the plan of disposal will 
be carried out within one year.

     Revenues for the ISG business were $548 and $684 for the three months 
ended March 31, 1998, and April 30, 1997, respectively.  In December 1997, 
the Company recorded a charge of approximately $3,600 for costs to be 
incurred in future periods in connection with the winding down of this 
operation.  Net current liabilities of discontinued operations consist 
primarily of accrued facility costs, warranties, and anticipated operating 
losses from the date of discontinuance until the estimated disposal date 
net of certain accounts receivable balances.  Prior year consolidated 
financial statements have been restated to present the ISG business as a 
discontinued operation.  Losses applied to the deferred charge were $655 
in the three month period ended March 31, 1998.

     Included in the loss from discontinued operations is a tax benefit of 
$141 for the three months ended April 30, 1997.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements give 
effect to the Merger of Titan and Horizons under the pooling of interests 
method of accounting.  These pro forma financial statements are presented 
for illustrative purposes only and therefore are not necessarily 
indicative of the operating results or financial position that might have 
been achieved had the Merger occurred as of an earlier date, nor are they 
necessarily indicative of operating results or financial position which 
may occur in the future.

     A pro forma combined balance sheet is provided as of March 31, 1998, 
giving effect to the Merger as though it had been consummated on that 
date.  Pro forma combined statements of operations are provided for the 
three months ended March 31, 1998 giving effect to the Merger as though it 
had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.  For 
purposes of the pro forma operating data, Titan's consolidated financial 
statements for the three months ended March 31, 1998 have been combined 
with Horizons' consolidated financial statements for the three months 
ended March 31, 1998.

     The pro-forma combined financial statements as of and for the three 
month period ended March 31, 1998 for Titan and Horizons have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 
applicable to interim financial information and, in the respective 
opinions of Titan's management and Horizons' management, include all 
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial information for 
such interim periods.

THE TITAN CORPORATION AND HORIZONS TECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1. Basis of Presentation

         The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations combine 
the historical statements of operations for the Titan Corporation 
("Titan") with the historical statements of operations of Horizons 
Technology, Inc. ("Horizons") for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

Note 2. Merger Costs

         Titan estimates that Titan and Horizons will incur direct 
transaction costs of approximately $1 million associated with the Merger, 
consisting primarily of investment banking, filings with regulatory 
agencies, accounting, legal, financial printing and other related costs.

         These estimates are preliminary and are therefore subject to 
change.  These costs will be charged to operations as incurred.  The 
unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet gives effect to such charges as 
if they had been incurred as of March 31, 1998, but the effect has not 
been reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined statements of 
operations as they are nonrecurring in nature.

         The income tax effect of these charges has also been reflected as 
a pro forma adjustment.

Note 3. Pro Forma Net Income Per Share

         The unaudited pro forma combined net income per common share is 
based upon the weighted average number of common and equivalent shares of 
Titan and Horizons outstanding for each period at the exchange ratio of 
approximately $2.25 of Titan Common Stock for each share of Horizons 
Common Stock.  The effect of the assumed conversion of Titan's convertible 
subordinated debentures was antidilutive for the period presented.
