                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


(1)      ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS:

         Digital Solutions, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws
         of the State of New Jersey on November 25, 1969. The Company, with its
         subsidiaries, provides a broad spectrum of human resource services
         including Professional Employee Organization (PEO) services, payroll
         processing, human resource administration and placement of temporary
         and permanent employees.

(2)      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

         Basis of Presentation

         The consolidated financial statements included herein have been
         prepared by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
         information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
         statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
         regulations, although the registrant believes that the disclosures are
         adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is
         suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in
         conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes
         thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on form 10-K.
         This financial information reflects, in the opinion of management, all
         adjustments to present fairly the results for the interim periods. The
         results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily
         indicative of the results for the full year.

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include those of
         DSI, a New Jersey Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; DSI
         Contract Staffing, DSI Staff ConnXions, Digital Insurance Services,
         Inc., DSI Staff ConnXions of Mississippi, DSI Staff ConnXions -
         Southwest, MLB Medical Staffing, Inc., Ram Technical Services, Inc. and
         DSI Staff Rx, Inc. The results of operations of acquired companies have
         been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of
         acquisition. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
         have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

         Revenue Policy

         The Company recognizes revenue in connection with PEO business and its
         temporary placement service program, when the services have been
         provided. Revenues are recorded based on the Company's billings to
         customers, with the corresponding cost of providing those services
         reflected as direct operating expenses. Payroll services, commissions
         and other fees for administrative services are recognized as revenue as
         the related service is provided.

         Equipment and Improvements

         Equipment and improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation and
         amortization are provided using straight-line and accelerated methods
         over the estimated useful asset lives (3 to 5 years) and the shorter of
         the lease term or estimated useful life for leasehold improvements.

         Goodwill

         Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of companies acquired over
         the fair value of their net assets at dates of acquisition and is being
         amortized on a straight line basis over 40 years for acquisitions
         completed through September 30, 1992. Commencing with the year ended
         September 30, 1994, the Company's policy is to amortize any newly
         acquired goodwill over 20 years.

         Earnings Per Common Share

         Earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average number of
         shares outstanding as well as the dilutive effect of stock options and
         warrants.

         Statements of Cash Flows

         For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
         liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to
         be cash equivalents.

(3)      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

         On April 1, 1996 the Company renewed its workers compensation minimum
         premium agreement with a nationally recognized insurance carrier. In
         connection with this program, the insurance company develops reserve
         factors on each claim that may or may not materialize after the claim
         is fully investigated. Generally Accepted Accounting Principals require
         that all incurred, but not paid claims, as well as an estimate for
         claims incurred, but not reported (IBNR), be accrued on the balance
         sheet as a current liability, although
<PAGE>   10
         a portion of the claims may not be paid in the following twelve (12)
         months. As of March 31, 1996 and September 30, 1995, this accrual
         amounted to $525,000 and $785,000, respectively. During the six months
         ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company recognized approximately
         $541,000 and $200,000, respectively, as its share of premiums collected
         in excess of claims and fees paid and established reserves.

         The Company has increased its outstanding letters of credit and related
         restricted cash and cash equivalents to approximately $811,000 as of
         March 31, 1995. These letters of credit are required to collateralize
         unpaid claims in connection with the workers compensation insurance
         policy for unpaid claims and can only be drawn upon by the beneficiary
         if the Company does not perform according to the terms of the related
         agreement.

(4)      SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:

         During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company completed a
         $3,500,000 private equity financing. The private equity financing
         resulted in the issuance of approximately 1,556,000 shares of the
         Company's common stock at $2.25 per share.

(5)      SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

         On April 4, 1996, notes due from officers amounting to $709,000,
         including accrued interest, were settled through remittance of 123,286
         shares of the Company's common stock back to the Company.

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

Results of Operations

         The Company's operating revenues for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995 were $24,017,000 and $16,741,000, respectively, which represents
an increase of $7,276,000 or 43%. For the six months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995, the Company's operating revenues were $47,107,000 and $ 32,627,000,
respectively, which represents an increase of $14,480,000 or 44%. This increase
is attributable to continued efforts of the sales force to obtain new business
($10,000,000) and the full quarter revenue effect of a May 1, 1995 acquisition
($4,500,000).

         Direct operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 91% and 94%
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, reflecting
improved costs in the worker's compensation program and in administrative fees.
For the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, direct operating expenses, as
a percentage of sales, were 91%.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses, for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, were $1,669,000 and $1,070,000, respectively, or
an increase of 56% reflecting primarily the increase in sales expenses due to
the Company's commitment to increase revenues through its own sales force to
complement the growth through the acquisition of other companies. For the six
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, selling, general and administrative
expenses were $3,288,000 and $2,282,000, respectively, representing an increase
of 44%.

         Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 was
$55,000 and $86,000, respectively, reflecting the payment of the bridge note
during the quarter. For the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, interest
expense was $137,000 and $127,000, respectively.

         Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 was
$319,000 and $339,000, respectively, and $711,000 and $522,000 for the six
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

ratio of 1.33 to one versus a negative working capital of $2,603,000 or .74 to
one at December 31, 1995. This improvement reflects the Company's successful
Private Placement offering of $3,500,000 in the second quarter as well as
approximately $300,000 raised in capital through the exercise of stock options
and warrants.

         Total liabilities of the Company decreased by $3,354,000 or 32% during

shares of common stock. The Company has agreed to pay broker fees of 8% and
non-accountable expense reimbursements of 1% of the money raised. The Company
will use the proceeds of this offering for working capital.

         The Company had a net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995
of $3,316,000 and shareholders equity of $3,210,000. The Company has reported a
net profit for the six months ended March 31, 1996 of $711,000 and shareholders
equity of $8,821,000.

         As of March 31, 1996, the Company is in compliance with all of its
covenants with its bank accounts receivable line. The line matured on January

by the bank.

                                     PART II

                                OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.           Legal Proceedings

         In October 1995, the Company entered into a note and finance agreement
with LNB Investment Corporation ("LNB") providing for the loan to the Company of
up to $3,000,000. The loan was for a term of 15 months and was to be secured by
shares of the Company's common stock having a market value of no less than four
times the outstanding balance of the loan. LNB agreed not to sell or otherwise
liquidate the shares unless the Company were to default under the loan agreement
and failed to cure such default after notice. A total of 7,500,000 shares to be
pledged as collateral were registered under a registration statement filed under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

         The Company issued 1,783,334 shares (the "Shares") in the name of LNB
and delivered the Shares to a depository to secure the first portion of the loan
of $1,000,000.

         In January, 1996, the Company determined that the Shares the Company
pledged as collateral had been transferred and sold in violation of the loan and
finance agreement. Through the efforts of the Company, the Company recovered
1,258,334 Shares.

         In March 1996, the Company commenced an action against LNB, Donaldson,
Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation and other individuals to recover
damages on account of the wrongful sale of the Company's common stock. The
Company seeks to recover 525,000 shares which were not returned and damages
against all of the defendants. The Company is engaged in preliminary discovery
and the defendants have not as yet answered the complaint.
