liability as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 are as follows:

Revenues
- --------
Revenues  increased  13.3% from $173.5  million in the second quarter of 1995 to
$196.5  million in the current  second  quarter and 18.3% from $330.6 million in
the first six months of 1995 to $391.2 million in the comparable current period.
Approximately  65% of the  year-to-date  growth  in  revenue  resulted  from the
inclusion of revenues  from the date of purchase of acquired  companies  and the
remainder from increases in revenue from the addition of new clients,  growth in
the transaction volume experienced by existing clients and price increases.

Cost of Revenues
- ----------------
Cost of revenues  increased  11.4% from $148.7  million in the second quarter of
1995 to $165.6  million in the  current  second  quarter,  and 15.7% from $285.0
million  in the first six  months  of 1995 to  $329.8  million  in the first six
months of 1996.  These  increases are slightly less than the increase in revenue
for the periods due to improved operating margins.

Operating Income
- ----------------
Operating  income  increased  24.7% from $24.7 million in the second  quarter of
1995 to $30.9  million  in the  current  second  quarter,  and 34.4%  from $45.6
million in the first six months of 1995 to $61.4 million in the first six months
of 1996.  As a percentage of revenues,  operating  margins  improved  during the
second  quarter  and first six months of 1996 when  compared  to the  comparable
prior year periods due  primarily  to changes in the mix of business,  including
the impact of acquisitions referred to above.

Interest Expense - Net
- ----------------------
As a result of  acquisitions  since January 1, 1995,  which were only  partially
funded with common stock,  net interest  expense  increased  $0.6 million in the
second  quarter  and $4.5  million in the first six months of 1996 over  amounts
incurred for the comparable 1995 periods.

Income Tax Provision
- --------------------
Income taxes were computed at 41% in both 1996 and 1995.  The 41% rate is
expected to apply throughout the current year.

Net Income
- ----------
Net income grew 26.9% from $12.0 million in the second  quarter of 1995 to $15.2
million in the comparable 1996 quarter and 28.6% from $23.2 million in the first
six months of 1995 to $29.9 million in the comparable current period. Net income
per share  increased $.05 from $.28 in the second quarter of 1995 to $.33 in the
current  second  quarter  and $.10 from $.55 in the first six  months of 1995 to
$.65 in the first six months of 1996.  The increase in net income per share over
1995 was consistent with management expectations and historical growth rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
During  the six  months  ended  June  30,  1996,  cash  increased  $1.7  million
comprising  primarily  $75.8 million net cash provided by operating  activities,
$24.4 million  decrease in investments  and $3.8 million from issuance of common
stock,  which  was  partially  offset by $7.7  million  for the  acquisition  of
businesses,  $77.6 million net repayment of long-term debt and $17.0 million for
capital  expenditures.  Long-term obligations amounted to $306.2 million at June
30, 1996. The majority of this debt comprises $119.6 million of senior notes due
1997 to 2001 and $173.0 million advanced under a $300 million  unsecured line of
credit and  commercial  paper facility which reduces $45 million in May 1997 and
in May 1998,  $60 million in May 1999 and expires in May 2000. A facility fee of
0.10% to 0.20% per annum is required on the line.

The Company has historically applied a significant portion of its cash flow from
operating  activities and proceeds of its common stock offerings to acquisitions
and the  reduction of  long-term  debt and invests the  remainder in  short-term
obligations until it is needed for further  acquisitions or operating  purposes.

The Company believes that its cash flow from operating  activities together with
other  available  sources  of  funds  will  be  adequate  to  meet  its  funding
requirements.  However,  in the event that the Company makes significant  future
acquisitions,  it may raise funds through  additional  borrowings or issuance of
securities.
