1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Diversified
Corporate Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), all of which are
wholly owned. The financial information for the three months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998, is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) which the Company considers necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the periods. The financial information should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 1998, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
("Form 10-K"). Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 1999, are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire
year ending December 31, 1999.

2.  PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

    Property and equipment consist of:

4.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic EPS was determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the year and diluted EPS included
these shares plus common stock equivalents outstanding during the year (common
stock equivalents are excluded if the effects of inclusion are anti-dilutive).

    The following is reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares 
outstanding during the period for basic and diluted earnings per share.

5.  CONTINGENCIES

    In 1996, the Company was named as a garnishee in a lawsuit against its 
largest shareholder. As the result of an Agreed Temporary Order dated October 
24, 1996, the Company was non-suited in this matter. The Company has filed a 
separate lawsuit against the plaintiff seeking damages and reimbursement of 
expenses. Additionally, the Company was named in a lawsuit filed by two 
former employees (the "former employees") claiming damages for the fair 
market value of certain shares of common stock of certain subsidiaries of the 
Company, as well as other damages for breach of contract and various other 
allegations. The Company had filed a third party petition against one of 
these plaintiffs and a counterclaim against the other plaintiff. All parties 
involved entered into a settlement on April 15, 1999. Key terms of the 
settlement included, among other things, (a) the former employees 
transferring 35,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the Company, (b) 
the Company paying $20,000 to the former employees and their attorney, (c) 
the Company obtaining a $5,000,000 judgment against one of the former 
employees which will not be enforced and will expire in nine months provided 
that the former employees abide by the terms of the settlement agreement, (d) 
the former employees agreeing not to solicit any of the Company's employees 
or customers for a period of two years, and (e) the parties executing mutual 
releases of all claims against each of the parties involved. The Company is 
also involved in certain other litigation and disputes. With respect to all 
the aforementioned matters, management believes the claims are without merit 
and has concluded that the ultimate resolution of such will not have a 
material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

6.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statements of 
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative 
Instruments and Hedging Activities." Preliminary analysis of this new 
standard by the Company indicates that the standard will not have a material 
impact on the Company's financial statements. SFAS No. 133 is effective for 
all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.

    Amortization of intangibles for the three months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998 was $61,981 and $0, respectively.

8.  JOINT VENTURE OPERATIONS

    During January 1995 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement 
with Carter Financial Services, Inc., ("CFSI") for the purpose of primarily 
providing personnel services to certain businesses requiring minority 
suppliers. CFSI is a minority operated corporation which, because of its 
status, supplies services to clients requiring a certain portion of its 
business to be allocated to minority owned and operated vendors. The Company 
provided CFSI with substantially all of its personnel and contract labor on a 
subcontractor basis at cost. Through December 31, 1998, the Company had a 49% 
ownership interest in the joint venture and was allocated 65% of the net 
income or loss resulting from the joint venture operations. Effective January 
20, 1999, the joint venture was terminated and the Company acquired 
substantially all of the assets including an additional 35% income interest 
in the Atlanta and Chicago operations and assumed certain liabilities of the 
joint venture. The excess of the liabilities assumed over the assets 
acquired, approximately $170,000, has been recorded as goodwill and will be 
amortized over five years. Pro forma income statement information is not 
provided as the effect of acquiring the 35% interest is not material in 
relation to the consolidated operations of the Company.

9.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

    The Company's segment information has been presented in two reportable 
segments--staffing services and training. The staffing services segment 
consists of three functional lines--permanent placement, specialty services 
and contract placement. The training segment provides principally information 
technology training to its clients' employees and the Company's applicant 
pool on a fee basis. The Company is organized primarily on the basis of these 
segments with three operating subsidiaries engaged in the staffing services 
segment and two operating subsidiaries engaged in the training segment.

    Corporate expenses (those not directly related to segment operations) are 
allocated to the segments based upon net service revenues. Depreciation 
expense and interest income and expense are not allocated directly to the 
segments, but are included in the allocation of corporate expenses. Property 
and equipment are included in the assets not allocated to segments. Net 
Service Revenues from one customer represented approximately 14% and 15% of 
total staffing services revenues in the first quarter of 1999 and 1998,

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998

    Net service revenues increased approximately $3.1 million or 34.5% to 
$12.1 million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $9.0 million for the 
comparable 1998 quarter. The increase in net service revenues was 
attributable to the Company's continued focus on high-margin, specialty niche 
employment markets such as the information technology and 
engineering/technical disciplines. Net service revenues for the staffing 
services segment of the business increased approximately $2.8 million or 
31.0% to $11.7 million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $8.9 million 
in the first quarter of 1998. Approximately $1.9 million or 21.2% of this 
increase was the result of the Company's October 1998 acquisition of the 
Texcel companies. Permanent placement revenues increased approximately $1.7 
million or 35.5% to $6.5 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 
$4.8 million in the first quarter of 1998. Specialty service revenues 
increased approximately $233,000 or 14.2% to $1.9 million in the first 
quarter of 1999, compared to $1.6 million in the first quarter of 1998. 
Contract placement revenues increased approximately $833,000 or 33.5% to $3.3 
million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $2.5 million in the first 
quarter of 1998. Training segment revenues increased approximately $343,000 
or 615% to approximately $398,000 in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 
$56,000 for the comparable 1998 quarter. The Company significantly increased 
its training capacity in the second quarter of 1998. There were inter-segment 
revenues (training to staffing services) of approximately $11,000 in the 
first quarter of 1999 and approximately $1,000 in the first quarter of 1998.

    Gross margin increased approximately $1.0 million or 38.6% to $3.6 
million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $2.6 million in the first 
quarter of 1998. Gross margin as a percentage of net service revenues 
increased to approximately 29.9% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 
approximately 29.0% in the first quarter of 1998. Gross margin for the 
staffing services segment of the business increased approximately $887,000 or 
34.2% to $3.5 million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $2.6 million 
in the first quarter of 1998. Approximately $610,000 or 23.5% of this 
increase was the result of the Company's October 1998 acquisition of the 
Texcel companies. Gross margin as a percentage of net service revenues for 
the staffing services segment increased to approximately 29.8% in the first 
quarter of 1999 compared to approximately 29.1% in the comparable 1998 
quarter. Gross margin for the training segment of the business was 
approximately $138,000 in the first quarter of 1999 compared to approximately 
$10,000 in the comparable 1998 quarter. Gross margin as a percentage of net 
service revenues for the training segment was 34.6% in the first quarter of 
1999 compared to 17.8% in the comparable 1998 quarter.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 
$837,000 or 39.1% to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to 
$2.1 million in the first quarter of 1998. Selling, general and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of net service revenues increased to 
approximately 24.7% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to approximately 
23.9% in the first quarter of 1998. Selling general and administrative 
expenses for the Staffing Services segment of the business increased 
approximately $576,000 or 27.7% to $2.7 million in the first quarter of 1999, 
compared to $2.1 million in the first quarter of 1998. Approximately $494,000 
or 23.8% of this increase was the result of the Company's acquisition of the 
Texcel companies in October 1998. Selling, general and administrative 
expenses as a percentage of net service revenues for the staffing services 
segment was approximately 22.7% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 
23.3% in the comparable 1998 quarter. Selling, general and administrative 
expenses for the training segment of the business were approximately $340,000 
or 85.3% of net service revenues for the training segment in the first 
quarter of 1999. The Company reported minimal training segment revenues in 
the first quarter of 1998.

    Other income (expense) resulted in expense of $4,000 in the first quarter 
of 1999 compared to income of $90,000 in the comparable 1998 quarter. The 
income in 1998 resulted primarily from interest on proceeds from the 
Company's October 1997 public offering partially offset by a loss of 
approximately $14,000 from joint venture operations. The expense in 1999 
resulted primarily from interest expense of approximately $37,000 on deferred 
payment obligations related to the Company's October 1998 acquisition of the 
Texcel companies offset by reduced interest income on the remaining public 
offering proceeds.

    Income before income tax and extraordinary item increased approximately 
$74,000 or 13.5% to approximately $625,000 in the first quarter of 1999 
compared to approximately $551,000 in the first quarter of 1998. Income 
before income tax and extraordinary item for the staffing services segment of 
the business increased approximately $215,000 or 35.3% to $823,000 in the 
first quarter of 1999 compared to $608,000 in the first quarter of 1998. 
Income before income tax and extraordinary item for the training segment of 
the business resulted in a loss of approximately $198,000 in the first 
quarter of 1999 compared to a loss of approximately $58,000 in the comparable 
1998 quarter. The Company reported minimal training segment revenues in the 
first quarter of 1998 and significantly increased its training capacity in 
the second quarter of 1998.

    Income tax expense was approximately $241,000 in the first quarter of 
1999, compared to approximately $174,000 in the first quarter of 1998. The 
Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of 1999 and 1998 was 
approximately 39% and 32%, respectively.

<PAGE>

    Net income increased approximately $7,000 or 1.7% to $383,000 in the 
first quarter of 1999, compared to approximately $377,000 in the first 
quarter of 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Working capital was approximately $7.1 million at March 31, 1999 compared 
to $6.5 million at December 31, 1998. The increase in working capital of 
approximately $643,000 was primarily attributable to the profitable 
operations of the Company.

    Cash flow provided by operating activities of approximately $203,000 
resulted primarily from the profitable operations of the Company. The Company 
made capital expenditures of approximately $411,000 in the first quarter of 
1999, primarily to continue to improve its computer systems, its applicant 
database and to support its back office operations.

    The Company continues to evaluate various financing strategies to be 
utilized in expanding its business and to fund future growth or acquisitions. 
Management of the Company anticipates that funds remaining from its 1997 
public offering and cash flows from operations will provide adequate 
liquidity to fund its internal 1999 growth plans and operations for the 
foreseeable future. The Company's internal 1999 growth plans include the 
expansion and improvement of its applicant database and back office and the 
expansion and opening of new profit centers in cities in which the Company 
has existing offices. In addition, the Company continues to pursue avenues 
for growth including but not limited to possible strategic acquisitions. The 
Company will be required to obtain additional financing through either debt 
or equity in order to consummate additional significant acquisitions.

    Inflation has not had a significant effect on the Company's operating 
results.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

    As a result of certain computer programs being written using two digits 
rather than four to define the applicable year, any of the Company's computer 
programs that have date sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as 
the year 1900 rather than the year 2000 (the "Year 2000 Issue".) This could 
result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of 
operations, including among other things, a temporary inability to process 
transactions, send invoices or engage in normal business activities.

    The Company has made an assessment of the Year 2000 Issue and has 
concluded that it will have to modify or replace its accounting software so 
that the Company's computer system will function properly with respect to the 
Year 2000 Issue. The Company has purchased new accounting and back office 
software, which is Year 2000 compliant. The cost of the software was 
approximately $150,000, and implementation costs are estimated to be an 
additional $60,000. Because the remainder of the Company's systems 
applications and hardware were built on up-to-date client server 
architecture, they should require no modifications with respect to the Year 
2000 Issue. The Company has also initiated communications with its 
significant suppliers, landlords and large customers to determine the extent 
to which the Company is vulnerable to those third parties to minimize their 
own Year 2000 Issue. There can be no assurance that the systems of other 
companies upon which the Company's systems rely will be timely converted, or 
that a failure to convert by another company, or a conversion that is 
incompatible with the Company's systems, would not have a material adverse 
affect on the Company.

    The Company has begun, but not yet completed, a comprehensive analysis of 
the operational problems and costs (including loss of revenues) that would be 
reasonably likely to result from the failure by certain third parties to 
complete efforts necessary to achieve Year 2000 compliance on a timely basis. 
A contingency plan has not been developed for dealing with the most 
reasonably likely worst case scenario, and such scenario has not yet been 
clearly identified. The Company currently plans to complete such analysis and 
contingency planning by December 31, 1999.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statements of 
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative 
Instruments and Hedging Activities." Preliminary analysis of this new 
standard by the Company indicates that the standard will not have a material 
impact on the Company's financial statements. SFAS No. 133 is effective for 
all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.

ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER FROM FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that reflect projections 
or expectations of future financial or economic performance of the Company, 
and statements of the Company's plans and objectives for future operations 
are "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the 
Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as 
amended. No assurance can be given that actual results or events will not 
differ materially from those projected, estimated, assumed or anticipated in 
any such forward looking statements. Important factors (the "Cautionary 
Disclosures") that could result in such differences include: general economic 
conditions in the Company's markets, including inflation, recession, interest 
rates and other economic factors; the availability of qualified personnel; 
the level of competition experienced by the Company; the Company's ability to 
implement its business strategies and to manage its growth; the level of 
litigation expenses; the level of developmental expenses; the effects of the 
Year 2000 issue; those factors identified in the Company's Prospectus dated 
September 30, 1997 as risk factors; and other factors that affect businesses 
generally. Subsequent written and oral "forward-looking" statements 
attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly 
qualified by the Cautionary Disclosures.
