(1)  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The interim financial statements include all adjustments
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the
financial statements not misleading. The amounts indicated as "audited" have
been extracted from the Company's December 31, 1994 annual report. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
included in PC Quote's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December
31, 1994. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current
presentation.

Costs associated with the planning and designing phase of software development,
including coding and testing activities necessary to establish technological
feasibility of computer software products to be sold, leased or otherwise
marketed, are charged to research and development costs as incurred. Once
technological feasibility has been determined, costs incurred in the
construction phase of software development, including coding, testing and
product quality assurance, are capitalized.

(2)  Income Taxes

At December 31, 1994, the Company had domestic net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $7,079,000 for federal income tax purposes, approximately
$5,112,000 for alternative minimum tax purposes, and approximately $67,000 of
investment tax credit carryforwards. The net operating loss carryforwards will
expire in the years 1999 to 2006 and the investment tax carryforwards will
expire in the years 1999 to 2000, if not previously utilized.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

FOR THE SIX MONTHS AND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

Service revenues for the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995 slightly
decreased .6% and 1.4%, respectively, from the same periods of 1994. New sales
and additional services increased steadily over the first two quarters vs.
cancellations. This additional service revenue will be reflected in the third
and fourth quarter results.

Selling and marketing costs decreased 9.8% and 11.6%, respectively, for the six
months and quarter ended June 30, 1995, over the same periods in 1994. Sales
have increased during this period with fewer sales people due to our increased
focus on platform and data feed sales.

Direct costs of services for the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995
decreased 17.3% and 26.9%, respectively, over the same periods last year. This
reflects the overall decrease in costs mainly related to the reallocation of
resources into the developmental capitalized costs.

Research and Development costs decreased 31.8% and 26.6%, respectively, for the
six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995, from the corresponding periods in
1994. There was a substantial increase in development costs versus research and
design which is reflected in the overall increase in the capitalized software
costs.

General and administrative expenses increased 13.4% and 28.2%, respectively, for
the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1995, from the same periods in 1994.
The main increase was due to the decrease of chargeable costs to software
development to be capitalized.

Interest income decreased 58.9% and 38.9%, respectively, for the six months and
quarter ended

                                    Page 12
<PAGE>
June 30, 1995, from the corresponding periods in 1994. Interest income decreased
due to our use of cash over credit for some equipment needs. Expenditures for
capital needs decreased the cash available for investment.

Interest expense decreased 13.2% and 2.4%, respectively, for the six months and
quarter ended June 30, 1995 over the same periods in 1994. A switch to operating
leases versus capital leases, lower interest rates, and an increase in cash
purchases of equipment resulted in the decrease.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

FOR THE SIX MONTHS AND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

Operating activities provided the principal source of cash for the Company for
the six months ended June 30, 1995. Receivables increased as the result of the
change in the billing cycle to industry standard advance billing. The Company
believes that the advanced billing cycle instituted during the first quarter
will increase positive cash flow over the balance of this year. With regard to
investing activities, the Company's investing activities were for purchases of
equipment and costs associated with the development of software. Financing
activities used cash principally for payments of a bank note and for capital and
operating lease obligations. The Company expects existing cash and cash
generated by operations will be sufficient to finance the Company's operations
through the remainder of 1995.

The Company believes general inflation does not materially impact its sales and
operating results nor is it expected that the effect of existing tax reform will
significantly affect the Company's future position, liquidity or operating
results.
