       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1.   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Adia Services,
Inc. and subsidiaries for the periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 are
unaudited.  However, in the opinion of the Company,  all adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation have been reflected therein.

Certain financial information which is normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but which
is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report.

The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 1994 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


NOTE 2:   Majority Stockholder

On March 22, 1994, the Registrant received a merger proposal from Adia S.A.
("ASA"), whereby ASA would acquire all the outstanding common shares of the
Company which it does not currently own.  ASA owns, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Adia Holdings Incorporated ("AHI"), 4,632,348 shares of the
Registrant's common stock and 5,600,000 shares (100%) of the Registrant's Class
B common stock, which together represent 81% of the Registrant's outstanding
shares.  Based upon the higher voting power of the Class B common stock, ASA
controls 96% of the votes.  In the proposed merger, eight shares of common stock
of the Registrant would be exchanged for one share of ASA stock and $112.00 in
cash.    As of July 25, 1994, ASA and the Registrant announced suspension of
negotiations between ASA and a special committee of the Board of Directors of
Registrant formed to evaluate the previously announced proposed merger.
Negotiations were suspended due to inability to reach agreement on the terms of
the merger.  ASA has engaged CS First Boston as an additional advisor to assist
in determining whether there is a basis for further negotiations, and to assist
in any further negotiations.  Copies of the press releases of ASA dated July 26,
1994 and Registrant dated July 26, 1994 are filed herewith and are incorporated
herein by reference.

The Company  acquired Adia  Canada, Ltd.,  a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASA for
$1 million as of the beginning of 1994.   This transaction was accounted for as
a purchase based upon a purchase price determined by independent appraisal.
Recording this transaction as a deemed distribution to ASA would not have
produced a materially different result.

Under the existing tax sharing agreement between the Company and AHI,  the
Company shares in any Federal tax savings realized as a result of its
consolidation for tax purposes with other AHI companies.  Because of the
expected 1994 operating results of the other AHI companies included in the tax
consolidation, the Company does not presently anticipate any tax savings for
1994   and, accordingly, did not record any such tax benefit in the  six month
period ending June 30, 1994.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

During the second quarter of 1994, net income increased to $6.5 million ($.52
per share) as compared to $4.6 million ($.36 per share) for the second quarter
of 1993.  For the first six months of 1994, net income increased 46% to $11.9
million ($.95 per share) from $8.2 million ($.65 per share) in the prior year.
For the first six months of 1994 revenues increased 31% to $559.5 million from
$427.2 million for the first six months of 1993.  Revenues for the second
quarter increased 33% to $289.7 million as compared to $218.5 million in the
second quarter of 1993.

The Company's operating results during 1994 have been positively affected by the
growth in the general economy.  Additionally, the trend on the part of business
to incorporate temporary help into their manpower planning continues to
favorably impact Adia's business as well as the industry as a whole.  Adia's
number of hours sold has increased 29% during both the second quarter and the
first six months as the Company continues to achieve record revenues.   Gross
margin dollars during the second quarter increased 31% to $78.9 million although
gross margin as a percentage of revenues fell to 27.2%.  For the six month
period gross margin dollars increased 27% to $152.2 million also representing
27.2% of revenues.  The increase in revenues reflects the increase in the total
number of hours sold,  slight increases in overall average bill rates and higher
permanent placement and outplacement revenues. The higher overall gross margin
dollars also results from the increase in volume while the decrease in the gross
margin percentage stems from a combination of higher pay rates required to
attract and retain highly qualified temporaries and higher employer related
costs for workers' compensation and unemployment taxes.  Because of continued
competitive pricing pressures, the full amount of these  benefit costs could not
be passed along in the form of higher bill rates.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 24.1%  during the first
six months of 1994.  As a percentage of revenues, these expenses decreased to
23.1% from 24.3%. The overall increase is  comprised principally of higher
personnel costs to service additional outplacement business and increased
incentive compensation directly related to improved branch profitability. The
Company continues to pursue cost efficiency measures to continue decreasing
these costs as a percentage of revenues.

Net interest income decreased during the first six months of 1994 as compared to
the first six months of 1993.  In the prior year, the Company was able to offset
the general decline in market interest rates through its loan with Adia Holdings
Incorporated ("AHI"), the Company's majority stockholder, which provided a yield
on all funds loaned to AHI higher than the yield on current short-term
investments.  This loan was repaid in full during December 1993.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

The Company continues to internally generate sufficient cash to support its
ongoing operations.

The Company continues to have a credit agreement with Adia Holdings Incorporated
(its majority stockholder - "AHI"), whereby AHI may borrow up to $50 million
from the Company.  As of June 30, 1994, there were no outstanding borrowings
under this line.

The Company has paid uninterrupted quarterly dividends on its Common Stock since
its initial public offering in October 1984.  Quarterly cash dividends are
currently $.04 per share for Common Stock and $.035 per share for Class B common
stock.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 26, 1994 -  Adia Services, Inc. (NASDAQ - "ADIA"),
announced today the suspension of negotiations regarding a proposed merger in
which Adia SA ("ASA"), the principal stockholder of Adia, planned to acquire all
the approximately 19% of Adia common stock which it does not currently own.

ASA announced its merger proposal on March 22, 1994, at which time ASA proposed
to exchange $14.00 in cash and an American Depositary Receipt representing one-
eighth share of its stock (which is traded on Swiss Stock Exchanges) for each
share of Adia common stock.  Negotiations between ASA and a special committee of
Adia's board commenced shortly after the announcement.  However, ASA and the
special committee have not been able to reach agreement on the terms of the
merger.

John Bowmer, the Chief Executive Officer of ASA and Adia, said: "ASA and Adia's
special committee have been negotiating for four months but have been unable to
reach agreement on terms which are satisfactory to both companies.  ASA has
engaged CS First Boston as an additional advisor to assist it in determining
whether there is a basis for further negotiations, and to assist in any further
negotiations.  Discussions between ASA and the special committee have been
suspended until that determination is made."

PRESS RELEASE
LAUSANNE, JULY 26, 1994


ADIA'S FIRST HALF RESULTS BEAT FULL YEAR FORECAST


Adia SA announced today that net income for the first half of 1994 had exceeded
earlier estimates for the full year.  At the company's General Assembly, held in
Lausanne on April 21, 1994, CEO John Bowmer had predicted that net income would
reach Sfr. 5 million for the year, marking a return to profitability for the
organization after two years of losses.  In fact, the first half of 1994
produced net income of Sfr. 8.3 million, compared to a net loss of Sfr. 31.6
million in 1993. Total revenues grew 10% from last year, to a total of Sfr. 1.65
billion.

The better than expected financial performance is principally the result of the
beginning of the economic recovery in Continental Europe.  Adia had not expected
to see much benefit from the recovery until the end of 1994, but hours sold in
Europe during the first half of 1994 were 10% higher than a year earlier,
signaling the beginning of improving demand for temporary help.  By maintaining
operating costs at levels close to the prior year, resulting productivity
improvements have been translated into higher profits.

Mr. Bowmer pointed out that this is very similar to the early stages of recovery
noted in the United States about 18 months ago.  He cautions that only time will
tell if the recovery in Europe is as strong for personnel companies as it was in
America.  In the meantime, revenues and profits continue to grow in the United
States, Australia and the United Kingdom.  Mr. Bowmer predicted that if no
adverse economic events arise between now and the end of the year Adia should
report close to Sfr. 20 million in net income for the full year.

In Japan there has been no sign of economic recovery to date and none is
expected before 1995.  However, cost controls that local management has put in
place have allowed Adia to continue to operate profitably in that part of the
world.

The results for the first six months of the year are summarized in the following
table.

ADIA SA SUSPENDS NEGOTIATIONS WITH ADIA SERVICES, INC.

Adia announced today the suspension of negotiations regarding a proposed merger
in which Adia planned to acquire all the approximately 19% of Adia Services,
Inc. (the U.S. Company) which it does not currently own.

Adia announced its merger proposal on March 22, 1994, at which time Adia
proposed to exchange $14.00 in cash and an American Depositary Receipt
representing one-eighth share of its stock for each share of the U.S. Company
common stock.  Negotiations between Adia and a special committee of the U.S.
Company's board commenced shortly after the announcement.  However, Adia and the
special committee have not been able to reach agreement on the terms of the
merger.

Mr. Bowmer said, "Adia and the U.S. Company's special committee have been
negotiating for four months, but have been unable to reach agreement on terms
which are satisfactory to both companies.  Adia has engaged CS First Boston as
an additional advisor to assist it in determining whether there is a basis for
further negotiations, and to assist in any further negotiations.  Discussions
between Adia and the special committee have been suspended until that
determination is made."
