                        INTEGRATED SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                    QUARTERS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. 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 (all of
which are normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1998.

         The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of
Integrated Security Systems, Inc. ("ISSI") and all of its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company"), with all significant intercompany accounts and
transactions eliminated. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 1997
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed September 25, 1997.

NOTE 2 - RECLASSIFICATION

         Certain reclassification of prior year amounts have been made to
conform to the current period presentation.

NOTE 3 - FINANCING

         On October 31, 1997, Tri-Coastal Systems, Inc. ("TCSI") entered into a
Business Manager factoring facility with Plano Bank & Trust to factor accounts
receivable with recourse. This factoring facility expires October 31, 1998, has
an adjustable factoring fee of 3.4%, and a maximum borrowing amount of $800,000.
This facility is secured by all assets of TCSI and is guaranteed by ISSI. At
December 31, 1997, TCSI had factored receivables of approximately $289,000.

         In connection with the factoring facility, the Company agreed to an
increase in the interest rate related to $4.6 million in convertible debentures
from 9% to 12%. In exchange for the increased interest rate, the holders of the
convertible debentures agreed to release their security interest in TCSI's
assets. Effective February 1, 1998, the interest rate has been reduced to the
original 9%.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

         In February 1997, the Financial Accounting and Standards Board issued
the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."
This statement establishes a new methodology for reporting earnings per share
for interim financial information and annual financial statements issued with
periods ending after December 15, 1997. Accordingly, basic and diluted income
(loss) per share amounts are reported for all periods presented.

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


GENERAL

         The following information contains certain forward-looking statements.
It is important to note that ISSI's actual results could differ materially from
those projected by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
operations may not improve as projected, new products may not be accepted by the
marketplace as anticipated, or new products may take longer to develop than
anticipated.

         Effective January 1, 1997, the Company changed its fiscal year end from
December 31 to June 30. References to fiscal 1996 refer to the twelve months
ended December 31, 1996, references to fiscal 1997 refer to the six months ended
June 30, 1997, and references to fiscal 1998 refer to the twelve months ending
June 30, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 1996

         Sales. The Company's sales increased by $.3 million (15%) to $2.6
million during the quarter ended December 31, 1997 from $2.3 million during the
comparable 1996 period. The Company's Security Systems Group experienced a 13%
decline in sales compared to the prior year period due primarily to TCSI client
construction delays. Sales at the Company's manufacturing subsidiaries increased
21% with the inclusion of Golston Company ("Golston"), acquired on December 31,
1996, offset in part by decreased revenue at B&B Electromatic, Inc. ("B&B").

         For the quarter ended December 31, 1997, approximately 85% of the
Company's revenues were generated from the sale of products manufactured by the
Company compared to 81% for the same 1996 period.

         Cost of Sales and Gross Margin. Gross margin as a percent of sales
decreased to 38% from 43% for the quarters ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The majority of the decrease was due to a less favorable product
mix at B&B compared to the prior year period. During the 1996 period, B&B
experienced a higher percentage of sales of road and bridge products, which have
higher gross margins.

         Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased to $1.5 million during the quarter ended
December 31, 1997 from $.9 million during the comparable 1996 period. Most of
the increase was attributable to the inclusion of Golston expenses and the
Company absorbing all of the sales and marketing expenses of Innovative Security
Technologies, Inc. ("IST") during the 1997 period. During the 1996 period, these
costs were partially offset by IST Partners, Ltd. ("the partnership"), an
unaffiliated investment partnership.



                                  Page 7 of 11
<PAGE>   8

         Research and Product Development. Research and product development
expenses increased by approximately $95,000 during the quarter ended December
31, 1997 compared to the comparable 1996 period due to additional development of
the Company's Intelli-Site(R) products and increased testing and design of new
products at B&B. (These costs were partially offset by the partnership during
the 1996 period.)

         Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by approximately $195,000
during the quarter ended December 31, 1997, compared to the comparable 1996
period due to the financing related to the acquisition of Golston.

         Gain on Sale of Assets. The Company recorded a $37,000 gain on the sale
of assets during the quarter ended December 31, 1997, principally from the sale
of assets at Golston.

         Other. The $21,000 increase in other expenses was almost entirely
related to the new factoring facility at TCSI.

Six Months Ended December 31, 1997 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31,
1996.

         Sales. The Company's sales increased by $.9 million (19%) to $5.7
million during the first six months of fiscal 1998 from $4.8 million during the
comparable 1996 period. The Company's Security Systems Group experienced a 7%
growth in sales compared to the prior year period. Sales at the Company's
manufacturing subsidiaries increased 28% with the inclusion of Golston, acquired
on December 31, 1996, offset in part by decreased business at B&B.

         For the first six months of fiscal 1998, approximately 85% of the
Company's revenues were generated from the sale of products manufactured by the
Company compared to 78% for the same 1996 period.

         Cost of Sales and Gross Margin. Gross margin as a percent of sales
decreased to 40% from 47% for the six months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The majority of the decrease was due to a less favorable product
mix at B&B compared to the prior year period. During the 1996 period, B&B
experienced a higher percentage of sales of road and bridge products, which have
higher gross margins.

         Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased to $2.9 million during the first six months of
fiscal 1998 from $2 million during the comparable 1996 period. Most of the
increase was attributable to the inclusion of Golston expenses and the Company
absorbing all of the sales and marketing expenses of IST during the 1997 period.
(These costs were partially offset by the partnership during the 1996 period).

         Research and Product Development. Research and product development
expenses increased by approximately $175,000 during the first six months of
fiscal 1998 compared to the comparable 1996 period due to additional development
of the Company's Intelli-Site products and increased testing and design of new
products at B&B. (These costs were partially offset by the partnership during
the 1996 period.)



                                  Page 8 of 11
<PAGE>   9

         Gain on Sale of Assets. The Company recorded a $39,000 gain on the sale
of assets during the first six months of fiscal 1998, principally from the sale
of assets at Golston.

         Other. The $17,000 increase in other expenses was almost entirely
related to the new factoring facility at TCSI.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's cash position decreased by $746,643 during the first six
months of fiscal 1998, using $418,235 for operations during the period and
$848,741 for property and equipment as compared to $279,290 generated from
operations and $31,285 used for property and equipment in the 1996 period.

         During the first six months of fiscal 1998, the Company financed its
operations from cash flow from operations and through the exercise of
outstanding warrants to purchase the Company's common stock. The Company also
received $488,804 in proceeds from long-term debt related to capital
expenditures at Golston and made payments of $245,474 on debt and other
liabilities.

         On October 31, 1997, TCSI entered into a Business Manager factoring
facility with Plano Bank & Trust to factor accounts receivable with recourse.
This factoring facility expires October 31, 1998, has an adjustable factoring
fee of 3.4% and a maximum borrowing amount of $800,000. This facility is secured
by all assets of TCSI and is guaranteed by ISSI. At December 31,1997, TCSI had
factored receivables of approximately $289,000.

         In connection with the factoring facility, the Company agreed to an
increase in the interest rate related to $4.6 million in convertible debentures
from 9% to 12%. In exchange for the increased interest rate, the holders of the
convertible debentures agreed to release their security interest in TCSI's
assets. Effective February 1, 1998, the interest rate has been reduced to the
original 9%.

         Historically, the Company's manufacturing subsidiaries have generated
positive cash flow from operations. The Company anticipates this trend to
continue. This positive cash flow, in conjunction with the existing revolving
line of credit should position the Company to cover its working capital needs
for all subsidiaries except IST. Development of distribution channels for
Intelli-Site will continue, with a significant portion of future investments
being utilized to launch Intelli-Site through the PSA Security Network. Training
and pre-sales support of the PSA channel and other channels will require sizable
expenditures by the Company in time and dollars before significant revenues are
realized. To finance these activities, the Company anticipates that it will need
