                                  -----------


NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Butler
International, Inc. ("the Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain amounts from prior period consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform
with current period presentation.

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited, but, in the opinion of
management, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring accruals,
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows at September 30, 1996 and for all periods presented.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted.  Accordingly, this report should be read in
conjunction with the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1995. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the
full year.



NOTE 2 - CREDIT FACILITY:

Effective September 30, 1996, the Company extended its Credit Facility with
General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC") to July 1, 1998.  The Credit
Facility provides the Company with up to $50.0 million in loans, including $9.0
million for letters of credit.  During the fourth quarter of 1996, the interest
rate will be reduced by fifty basis points from the current rate of 300 basis
points above the 30 day commercial paper rate.  Beginning January 1, 1997,
additional interest reductions are available based upon the Company achieving
certain financial results.  The Company has guaranteed all obligations incurred
or created under the Credit Facility. The Company is required to comply with
certain affirmative and financial covenants.  The Company is in compliance with
the aforementioned covenants as amended.



NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK:

In the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company issued 181,214 shares
of common stock upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants.



NOTE 4 - PREFERRED STOCK:

On June 30, 1996, $85,582 of dividends in kind were paid to holders of Series B
Preferred Stock.



NOTE 5 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:

Primary earnings per share are determined by dividing net earnings (after
deducting preferred stock dividends) by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents.  On a fully-diluted
basis, both earnings and shares outstanding are adjusted to assume the
conversion of convertible preferred stock.
<PAGE>
 
NOTE 6 - CONTINGENCIES:

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings and
claims incidental to its normal business operations for which material losses,
beyond that which is recorded, is remote except for the following matter.  In
1995, the Company filed a complaint against CIGNA Property and Casualty
Insurance Company alleging negligence, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary
duty, and negligent misrepresentation arising out of CIGNA's and other
defendants' acts and omissions in the processing, handling and investigation of
claims against the Company under general liability and workmen's compensation
insurance contracts.  The defendants filed an answer, new matter and
counterclaim denying the Company's allegations, asserting certain affirmative
defenses, and alleging that the Company has failed to pay retrospective premiums
amounting to approximately $7.0 million.  In the opinion of management, based on
the advice of counsel, all of the proceedings and claims in which the Company
and its subsidiaries are involved with can ultimately be defended. The Company
is defending itself vigorously against all such claims.



NOTE 7 - UNITED KINGDOM DISPOSALS:

As previously announced during the third quarter of 1996, the Company completed
the sale and disposal of the Telecommunications, Pacific and South African
operations of its United Kingdom ("UK") unit.  There was no significant impact
on reported earnings.



NOTE 8 - MORTGAGE NOTE:

Effective November 7, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the
$6.75 million mortgage note on its corporate headquarters facility through April
30, 1998. The new terms include an interest rate of 10%, down from 10 7/8%, and
an amortization schedule of 15 years.  The Company will pursue long-term
refinancing of the mortgage in 1997.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
        -----------------------------------------------------------------
Financial Condition
- -------------------


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

The third quarter of 1996 net income increased to $1.5 million, or $.22 per
share, from the $83,000, or $.01 per share, reported in the third quarter of
1995.  On a year-to-date basis, net income improved 94% to $3.3 million, or $.50
per share, from $1.7 million, or $.25 per share reported last year.

The results for the quarter continue to reflect the strength of the Company's
Telecommunications Services, Technology Solutions and Fleet Services operations,
as they continue to drive the Company's improved performance.  Additionally, the
margins in the Contract Technical Services ("CTS") division were again higher
than that of the prior quarter and the same quarter last year.

Gross margins increased to 14.9% in the third quarter from 14.6% reported in the
second quarter and 13.8% reported in the first quarter, reflecting the success
of the Company's strategy of pursuing an improved business mix.  This increase
occurred despite lower than average margins in the United Kingdom ("UK")
business.  The year-to-date gross margin for 1996 was 14.4%, compared with 13.9%
for the same period in 1995.  Selling, general and administrative expenses were
sharply lower than that of the prior year, the direct result of the strategic
management actions announced in late 1995.

The Company also benefited from reduced interest expense, resulting from the
significantly improved controls on, and management of, its receivable investment
which decreased by $22 million on a year-to-year basis, allowing the Company to
reduce its revolving line of credit to $33 million at September 30, 1996.

The results of the UK Telecommunications group did not meet expectations and the
Company entered into an agreement to sell this operation.  The Company finalized
the transaction to dispose its UK Telecommunications, as well as its Pacific and
South African operations during the third quarter of 1996.  Proceeds from the
sale of the Telecommunications and Pacific operations were sufficient to
extinguish related liabilities and cover the cost basis of assets sold.  The
company will continue to support its international clientele in its staff
business, both in the UK and its other international markets.

Sales for the quarter were $103.1 million, reflecting a 5% decrease from the
$108.2 million recorded in the third quarter last year.  For the nine months,
sales were $309.2 million, down 8% from $335.0 million in the comparable period
of the prior year.  The reduction in sales related to businesses that the
Company has exited, totaled $8 million and $17 million in the three and nine
month periods, respectively. CTS sales, in accordance with the Company's
strategic plans, were managed lower by $9 million and $32 million respectively,
as the Company continues its strategy of shedding low margin business.
Noteworthy increases were registered by the Fleet Services, Technology Solutions
and Telecommunications Services divisions.  Revenues in these units exceeded the
prior year by 59% and 51% in the three and nine month periods, respectively.
These operations, which generate higher than average returns, have been targeted
for expansion, at the expense of lower margin work in the CTS business and other
exited businesses.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

The Company's primary sources of funds are generated from operations and
borrowings under its Credit Facility.  As of September 30, 1996, $33.0 million
was outstanding under the Credit Facility, and an additional $6.5 million was
used to collateralize letters of credit.  Proceeds from the Credit Facility were
used by the Company to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other
business related expenses.
<PAGE>
 
Improved controls over the Company's investment in its accounts receivable
continue to yield results as reflected in the decrease in the borrowings under
its Credit Facility to $33.0 million at September 30, 1996 from $40.5 million at
December 31, 1995.

Effective September 30, 1996, the Company extended its Credit Facility with
General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC") to July 1, 1998.  The Credit
Facility provides the Company with up to $50.0 million in loans, including $9.0
million for letters of credit.  Effective during the fourth quarter of 1996, the
interest rate will be reduced by fifty basis points from the current rate of 300
basis points above the 30 day commercial paper rate.  The interest rate for
November 1996 is 7.9%, which compares favorably to the prime rate of 8.25%.  The
average rate on the Credit Facility since January 1, 1996, was 8.45%.  The
Company has guaranteed all obligations incurred or created under the Credit
Facility. The Company is also required to comply with certain affirmative and
financial covenants.  The Company is in compliance with the aforementioned
covenants, as amended.

In 1993, Butler of New Jersey Realty Corp., a subsidiary of the Company,
acquired the Company's corporate office complex in Montvale, NJ for
approximately $9.4 million.  This transaction was financed principally through
the assumption of an existing mortgage of $6.75  million, bearing interest at
10%, the issuance of a non-interest bearing note in the amount of $1.2 million
(which was fully paid in 1994), and the issuance of a second note in the amount
of $510,000 (the balance of which was $127,000 at September 30, 1996.)  On
November 7, 1996, the lender approved an extension of the existing mortgage note
through April 30, 1998.  The new terms include an interest rate of 10%, down
from 10 7/8%, and amortization schedule of 15 years and a 1% extension fee.  The
Company will be pursuing long term refinancing of the mortgage in 1997.  The
mortgage balance is reflected in the current portion of long-term debt.
