NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND 1996
NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion
of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position,
results of operations and cash flows. Results of operations for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.
The Company's shareholders approved a one for four reverse stock split which was
effective November 7, 1997. All share and per share amounts have been restated
to account for the reverse split.
NOTE 2. COMMON STOCK
In connection with the Company's acquisition of the outstanding minority
interest of Saztec Europe, Ltd. in 1991, the Company granted a put option to the
selling shareholders to repurchase 30,000 shares (on a pre-reverse split basis)
at $8.00 per share. The put option was exerciseable at 2,500 shares ($20,000)
per quarter through April, 1996. The options were exercised in their entirety
and at September 30, 1997, $33,342, and at September 30, 1996, $95,110 remained
payable to the selling shareholders.
Subsequent to one of the three private placements of common stock completed
during the quarter ended March 31, 1994 management agreed to issue 91,666
additional shares to the participants of one of the placements. At June 30,
1995, 62,500 of the shares had been issued. On September 30, 1997 and November
6, 1997 the remaining participants filed the required agreements and on October
22 and November 6, 1997 3,333 and 20,833 shares were issued, respectively.
On June 29, 1997 the Company and several current shareholders and
shareholder/directors agreed to a private placement of 860,000 shares of common
stock and warrants to purchase 860,000 additional shares of common stock. The
cost of the shares and warrants of $860,000 was placed in escrow. The placement
was contingent on the Company's shareholders consent to a one for four reverse
stock split and an amendment to the Company's Restated Articles of
Incorporation, which amendment increases from 5,000,000 to 10,000,000 the number
of shares of common stock (on a post-reverse split basis) the Company is
authorized to issue. In September, the Company and one of the participants
agreed to the release of $300,000 from the participant's escrow account and
300,000 shares and warrants were issued September 10, 1997.
On October 31, 1997 the Company's shareholders consented to the reverse split
and the amendment, effective November 7, 1997. The remaining 560,000 shares were
issued November 14, 1997.

NOTE 4. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss)
applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during each year which totaled 3,637,180 and 3,391,804
for the quarters ended September 30, 1997, and 1996, respectively. The inclusion
of common stock equivalents would have been antidilutive and were not included
for the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
Effective for periods ending after December 15, 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
EARNINGS PER SHARE. The standard amends the computation of earnings per share to
provide for two measures, Basic Earnings Per Share and Dilutive Earnings Per
Share. Under this standard, the Company would have reported the following for
the quarters ended September 30:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 1997 decreased to $1,613,471
from $2,375,142 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, a drop of 32%. U.S.
revenue for the quarter decreased 21.6% and European revenue was off 40%. The
sales mix in the United States and Europe was relatively unchanged from the
prior year period. Revenue from foreign sources comprised 49% of consolidated
revenues for the first three months of the current year as compared with 56% in
the prior year. Management expects revenue in both Europe and the United States
to improve in the second quarter of the current fiscal year.
Gross margin of 18.4% with a gross profit of $297,229 is 4.3% lower than the
22.7% margin and $539,624 of gross profit for the first quarter of the prior
year due to continued underutilized capacity and competitive pricing pressure.
Selling and administrative (S&A) expenses for the current year quarter decreased
$36,882 to $496,228 from $533,110 for the same period in the prior year. S&A
expense as a percentage of sales increased to 30.7% from 22.4% in the prior
year.
Net cash of $(164,926) was used in operating activities primarily to cover the
net loss of $(211,561). Proceeds from a portion of the private placement
received September 10, 1997 reduced the Company's dependency on the revolving
line of credit.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The Company's revolving credit agreement is secured by accounts receivable, work
in process, property and equipment and other assets, bearing interest at the
lender's prime rate plus 4.0%. Available borrowings were 80% of domestic trade
receivables less than 90 days old, with an aggregate maximum borrowing level of
$270,000. The note, which was due July 1, 1997 was renewed through October 1,
1997, then renewed through April 1, 1998. Maximum borrowings under the new
agreement decline $10,000 per month beginning November 1, 1997 from $270,000.
Available borrowing is restricted to 70% of eligible receivables. The Company
was in compliance with the agreement's covenants at September 30, 1997.
Outstanding borrowings on that date were $59,055 and $274,512 at June 30, 1997.
The Company's unrestricted cash balance of $352,417 on September 30, 1997
decreased by $34,368 from the balance at June 30, 1997. Working capital
decreased $204,408 during the quarter, which approximates the operating loss for
the period.
The Company and one shareholder participating in the Company's private placement
of common stock amended the escrow and subscription agreement with respect to
that shareholder/participant which authorized the release of $300,000 from
escrow on September 10, 1997 in payment for 300,000 units consisting of 300,000
shares of common stock and 300,000 warrants to purchase common shares. The
balance of the proceeds from the private stock placement of $560,000 to purchase
560,000 units were released from escrow and received by the Company on November
14, 1997.

ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
OF
SAZTEC INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Pursuant to Section 905 the General Corporation Law of the State of
California, Gary N. Abernathy and Kent L. Meyer, President and Secretary of
Saztec International, Inc., a California corporation, hereby certify as follows:
1. That Gary N. Abernathy is the President and Kent L. Meyer is the
Secretary of Saztec International, Inc., a California corporation (the
"Corporation").
2. That on April 30, 1997, pursuant to Section 902 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of California, the Board of Directors of the
Corporation duly adopted the following resolution, declared its advisability and
directed its submission to the stockholders for consideration and approval:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation have decided that it
is in the best interests of the Corporation to effect a reverse stock
split of the common stock of the Corporation and, in conjunction
therewith, an increase in the authorized number of shares of common
stock of the Corporation;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Articles of Incorporation of
the corporation shall be amended by deleting the present Article FOURTH
thereof in its entirety, and inserting in its place a new Article
FOURTH as follows:
"FOURTH: (a) Upon the effectiveness of this amendment each of the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation shall
be, and hereby is, automatically reclassified as and converted into
shares of common stock of the Corporation on the basis of one (1) share
of newly issued common stock for each four (4) shares of common stock
held by the Corporation's shareholders prior to the filing of this
amendment. Any fractional shares created by this 1-for-4 reverse stock
split shall be canceled and paid in cash to the shareholder upon the
issuance of the shareholder's stock certificate, calculated in
accordance with the closing trading price for the Corporation's common
stock on the date this amendment is filed.
(b) The Corporation shall have authority to issue two classes
of stock, 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock ("Preferred Stock"), and
10,000,000 shares of common stock ("Common Stock").
(c) The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one
or more series. The Board of Directors is authorized to fix the number
of shares of any series of Preferred Stock and to determine the
designation of any such series. The Board of Directors is also
authorized to determine or alter the rights, preferences, privileges
and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly-unissued series
of Preferred Stock and, within the limits and restrictions stated in
any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors originally
fixing the number of shares constituting any series, to increase or
decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then
outstanding) the number of shares of any such series subsequent to the
issue of shares of that series."
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the proposed amendment to Article FOURTH of the
Corporation's Articles of Incorporation be submitted to a vote or
consent of the shareholders of the Corporation in accordance with
Sections 601 and 603 of the California General Corporation Law;
<PAGE>
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors recommends to the
shareholders that they vote or consent in favor of the proposed
amendment;
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the officers of the Corporation are hereby
authorized and directed to prepare a Consent Solicitation Statement for
the solicitation of consents in favor of the proposed amendment to
Article FOURTH of the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation in
accordance with Sections 601 and 603 of the California General
Corporation Law, to file the Consent Solicitation Statement and any
other solicitation materials with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, and to take such other actions and to prepare and file such
other consents, notices, filings and certificates as may be necessary
or desirable in the judgment of any officer of the Corporation to
effectuate the consent solicitation and to obtain approval of the
shareholders of the proposed amendment.
3. The foregoing amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the
Corporation has been approved by the required vote of the outstanding shares of
the Corporation, pursuant to the shareholder consent solicitation described in
the foregoing resolutions, in accordance with Section 903 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of California.
We further declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State
