NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
A. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
---------------------------
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include The Dwyer
Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
B. INTERIM DISCLOSURES
-------------------
The information as of March 31, 1996 and for the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995 is unaudited, but in the opinion of management,
reflects all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature,
necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of
operations for the interim periods. The accompanying consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal
year ending December 31, 1996.
C. RECLASSIFICATIONS
-----------------
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 consolidated
financial statements to conform to the presentation used in the 1996
consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications had no effect
on stockholders' equity or net income.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
-------------------------
Earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares and common equivalent shares
outstanding during each of the periods. Earnings per share include the
dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and warrants.
NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed
Of" is required to be implemented for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995. Accordingly, the Company is implementing this
pronouncement during the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996. The
effect of this pronouncement on the Company's consolidated financial
condition and results of operations is not considered to be material.

THE DWYER GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
The Company's working capital ratio was approximately 3.0 to 1 at March
31, 1996, and December 31, 1995, respectively. In addition, the Company
had working capital of approximately $5,062,000 at March 31, 1996 as
compared to approximately $5,213,000 at December 31, 1995. For the
remainder of fiscal 1996 management expects to fund working capital
requirements primarily through operating cash flow. At March 31, 1996 and
December 31, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$3,331,000 and $3,446,000, respectively.
Net trade accounts receivable increased approximately $238,000 from
December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996. $173,000 of the increase can be
attributed to the operations of General Business Services ("GBS") which
has significant billings during the tax season.
Trade notes receivable increased approximately $308,000 (5.8%) coinciding
with approximately $1,100,000 in franchise sales for the first quarter of
1996. The Company will finance a portion of franchise sales if the buyer
is qualified.
Federal income tax receivable decreased $383,000 due to the receipt of
approximately $212,000 in federal income tax refunds from the Internal
Revenue Service and the first quarter 1996 federal income tax provision
of approximately $171,000.
Accounts receivable from related parties increased $201,000, whereas
accounts payable to related parties increased $34,000. This net $167,000
related party receivable increase relates to shared expenses and
administrative fees billed to related parties by the Company during the
first quarter of 1996.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Revenues increased approximately $150,000 (4.2%) for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the first quarter of 1995. The
increase in revenues is mainly attributable to increases in: royalty
income of $283,000 (19.7%); product sales of $69,000 (37.9%); and
interest and other income of $53,000 (17.0%). These revenue increases
were partially offset by decreased franchise sales of approximately
$263,000 (19.5%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared
to the first quarter of 1995.
Mr. Rooter contributed the most significant growth with approximately
$220,000 (49.0%) in increased royalty revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 when compared to 1995. Aire Serv and Mr. Electric produced
royalty income increases of $37,000 (91.4%) and $14,000 (2,014.0%),
respectively.
For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, Mr. Electric, Rainbow and Aire
Serv produced franchise sales increases of $73,000 (94.1%), $20,000
(15.3%), and $16,000 (18.4%), respectively, when compared to 1995. These
franchise sales increases were partially offset by decreases in GBS and
Mr. Rooter franchise sales of approximately $273,000 (35.4%) and $100,000
(35.3%), respectively.
E.K.Williams and GBS produced approximately $251,000 in product sales for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared to $182,000 for the
first quarter of 1995, a $69,000 (58.8%) increase. EKW and GBS sell
products such as manual record keeping systems and forms to its
franchisees and outside customers.
Interest and other revenues increased approximately $53,000 primarily due
to increased corporate administrative fees charged to related parties.

THE DWYER GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
---------------------------------
General, administrative and selling expenses increased $313,000 (13.0%)
in the first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995. This
increase is primarily due to: $210,000 of additional employee costs in
the first quarter of 1996 as a result of the 1995 restructuring of the
administrative, franchise sales and franchise management departments of
the operating subsidiaries and the 1995 creation of several new corporate
departments; $69,000 of additional and notes receivable bad debt reserve,
and $36,000 of increased convention expenses regarding the Company's
annual convention to occur in Las Vegas in August 1996.
Cost of tax services decreased $89,000 (24.1%) for the first quarter of
1996 compared to the same 1995 period. This is a positive result when
compared to the corresponding $8,000 (2.5%) increase in tax service
revenues for the same periods and reflects the Company's cost cutting
program initiated during the fourth quarter of 1995.
The excess of the expense increase over the revenue increase in the March
31, 1996 quarter as compared to the March 31, 1995 quarter resulted in a
$111,000 (25.9%) decline in net income. Net income per share decreased
to $.04 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to $.06
per share for the first quarter of 1995.
IMPACT OF INFLATION
-------------------
Inflation has not had a material impact on the operations of the Company.
FOREIGN OPERATIONS
------------------
The Company and its subsidiaries operate in fourteen (14) countries.
Income from master licenses is recorded as received due to the difficulty
sometimes experienced in foreign countries when attempting to remove
income generated from royalties. The Company does not depend on foreign
operations to have a significant impact on its cash flow. Typically,
foreign franchises are sold and managed by a master licensee in that
country. During the remainder of 1996, the Company may produce additional
master license sales which could result in each case in a one time, lump
sum payment from the master licensee to the company.
OTHER DISCLOSURES
-----------------
Weighted average common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding
have continued to increase as outstanding stock options held by
management and employees are exercised or become dilutive. This trend
could continue when the Company's stock price rises.
