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 June 30, 1997 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, 1996.

NOTE 2 - CREDIT FACILITY:

Effective July 17, 1997, the Company extended its Credit Facility with General
Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC") to July 1, 2001. The Credit Facility, as
amended and restated, provides the Company with up to $50.0 million in loans,
including $9.0 million for letters of credit. The interest rate chargeable to
the Company in the second quarter 1997 was 240 basis points above the 30 day
commercial paper rate. The interest rate has since been reduced to 230 basis
points above the commercial paper rate. Additional interest reductions are
available based upon the Company achieving certain financial results. The
interest rate in effect on June 30, 1997 was 8.0%, and the average rate since
January 1, 1997 was 8.0%. 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. The amended and restated agreement also
includes an additional acquisition facility for up to $15 million, bearing
interest at 300 basis points above the 30 day commercial paper rate.

NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK:

During the first quarter of 1997, the Company issued 12,000 shares of common
stock upon the exercise of common stock options.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:

Primary earnings per share are determined by dividing net income (after
deducting preferred stock dividends of $45,589 and $91,189 for the quarter and
six months ended June 30, 1997 and $42,790 and $85,582 for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1996) 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.

The Company will adopt the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128") in the fourth quarter of 1997, as required.
The Company will continue to apply APB Opinion No. 15 until the adoption of SFAS
128. The pro forma earnings per share ("EPS") computed under the provisions of
SFAS 128 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 are as follows:
Basic EPS of $.29 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
and $.41, respectively, and diluted EPS of $.24 and $.35, respectively. Pro
forma basic and diluted EPS for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996
were as follows: Basic EPS of $.21 and $.29, respectively and diluted EPS of
$.18 and $.26, respectively.

NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES:

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings and
claims incidental to its normal business operations for which material
liability, 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 $7.6 million. On April 18, 1997, CIGNA drew down on three letters
of credit, posted by the Company, in the aggregate amount of $2.9 million. There
was no impact on current operating results. These letters of credit had been
posted as collateral for estimated retrospective premiums. On July 29, 1997, the
Company entered into an agreement with CIGNA which, in the absence of a
settlement, will result in the respective parties undertaking binding
arbitration in late 1998. The parties further agreed to grant the Company an
option to settle this matter in lieu of arbitration.

NOTE 6 - 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 terms of the agreement include an interest rate of 10%, down from
10 7/8%, and an amortization schedule of 15 years. On July 7, 1997, the Company
received a commitment from Fleet Bank to refinance the existing mortgage. The
commitment which is based upon normal terms and conditions will provide
financing at 75% of the appraised value of the real estate to a maximum of $6.75
million. The agreement includes several choices of interest rates including
Fleet's Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 225 basis points or Fleet's Cost of Funds plus
225 basis points.

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

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

The second quarter of 1997 net income increased by 37% to $1.8 million, or $.26
per share, up from the $1.3 million, or $.20 per share, reported in the second
quarter of 1996. On a year-to-date basis, net income was $2.6 million, or $.38
per share, compared to $1.8 million, or $.28 per share reported for the
comparable period last year.

The increased profitability was driven by higher gross margin percentages which
in the current quarter were 15.3%, up from 14.6% reported in the second quarter
of 1996. This improvement was lead by the Telecommunications Services and
Technology Solutions operations. Also, contributing to the increased earnings
was reduced interest expenses which was principally due to decreased borrowings.

Revenues for the quarter were $108.4 million, up 3% from the $105.4 million
recorded in 1996. Impacting the year-on-year comparison was the previously
announced exiting of certain of the Company's United Kingdom operations, as well
as the continuing de-emphasis of the Contract Technical Services business.
Revenues excluding these groups increased by 14%. Year-to-date revenues were
$213.1 million for the first six months of 1997, or 3% higher than that reported
for the comparable period in 1996.

Information contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition, other than historical information, may be
considered forward-looking in nature, as such it is based upon certain
assumptions and is subject to various risks and uncertainties, which may not be
controllable by the Company. To the extent that these assumptions prove to be
incorrect, or should any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, the actual
results may vary materially from those which were anticipated.

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

The Company's primary sources of funds are generated from operations and
borrowings under its Credit Facility. As of June 30, 1997, $28.2 million was
outstanding under the Credit Facility, and an additional $8.4 million was used
to collateralize letters of credit. Proceeds from the Credit Facility are used
by the Company to finance its internal business growth, working capital and
capital expenditures.

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 $28.2 million at June 30, 1997, down from $37.6 million
at June 30, 1996.

During the first quarter of 1997, the Company received net proceeds of $84,000
from the exercise of 12,000 common stock options.

Effective July 17, 1997, the Company extended its Credit Facility with General
Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC") to July 1, 2001. The Credit Facility, as
amended and restated, provides the Company with up to $50.0 million in loans,
