              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             June 30, 1999 and 1998
                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1. Organization

     TENERA, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is the parent company
of the subsidiaries  described below.

     TENERA Rocky  Flats,  LLC ("Rocky  Flats"),  a Colorado  limited  liability
company,  was formed by the Company in 1995, to provide  consulting  services in
connection with  participation in the Performance Based  Integrating  Management
Contract  ("Rocky Flats  Contract") at the Department of Energy's  ("DOE") Rocky
Flats Environmental Technology Site. In May 1997, the Company's other government
business  was  consolidated  within the Rocky Flats  subsidiary.  This  business
provides  consulting  and  management  services to the DOE  directly and through
subcontracts with DOE prime  contractors.  These services provide  assistance to
DOE-owned  nuclear   facilities  in  devising,   implementing,   and  monitoring
strategies  to  upgrade  from  an   operational,   safety,   and   environmental
perspective.

      TENERA Energy, LLC ("Energy"),  a Delaware limited liability company,  was
formed by the Company in May 1997, to consolidate its commercial  electric power
utility business into a separate legal structure. The Energy subsidiary provides
consulting,  management  services,  and technology enhanced training programs in
organizational  effectiveness  and  organizational  development,   environmental
outsourcing and  monitoring,  risk analysis and modeling,  and business  process
improvement.

      TENERA Technologies,  LLC  ("Technologies"),  a Delaware limited liability
company,  was  formed  by the  Company  in May  1997  to  consolidate  its  mass
transportation  business  into a separate  legal  entity.  Before the Asset Sale
described  below,  Technologies  provided  computerized  maintenance  management
software and consulting to the mass transit industry.  On November 14, 1997, the
Company  consummated  the sale of all of the assets  ("Asset  Sale")  related to
Technologies'  mass  transportation  business,  to Spear  Technologies,  Inc., a
California   corporation  newly  formed  by  former  members  of  the  Company's
management.  The Company  received  $1,300,000 in cash, a promissory note in the
amount of $300,000,  and a warrant to acquire 4% of the buyer's then outstanding
shares of common stock  exercisable  upon an initial public offering or a change
of control (as defined in the warrant).  The buyer also assumed all  liabilities
associated with the Technologies business.


Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      Basis of Presentation.  The accompanying  condensed consolidated financial
statements  include the  accounts of the Company and its  subsidiaries  and have
been  prepared by the Company  without  audit.  All  intercompany  accounts  and
transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(which include  normal  recurring  adjustments)  necessary to present fairly the
financial  position at June 30,  1999,  and the results of  operations  and cash
flows for the  three-month  and six-month  periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
have been made. For further  information,  refer to the financial statements and
notes  thereto  contained in TENERA,  Inc.'s  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      Use of Estimates.  The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity
with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the amounts  reported in the  financial
statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

      Cash and Cash  Equivalents.  Cash and cash  equivalents  consist of demand
deposits,  money market accounts,  and commercial paper issued by companies with
strong credit ratings.  The Company includes in cash and cash  equivalents,  all
short-term,  highly  liquid  investments  which  mature  within  three months of
acquisition.

      Property  and  Equipment.  Property  and  equipment  are  stated  at  cost
($2,442,000   and   $2,382,000   at  June  30,  1999  and   December  31,  1998,
respectively),  net of accumulated  depreciation  ($2,229,000  and $2,188,000 at




                                       5
<PAGE>


June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,  respectively).  Depreciation is calculated
using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives, which range from
three to five years.

      Revenue.  The Company  primarily offers its services to the electric power
industry and the DOE.  Revenue from  time-and-material  and cost plus  fixed-fee
contracts is recognized when costs are incurred;  from fixed-price contracts, on
the basis of percentage of work completed  (measured by costs incurred  relative
to total estimated project costs).

      The Company performs credit evaluations of these clients and normally does
not require collateral.  Reserves are maintained for potential sales adjustments
and  credit  losses;   such  losses  to  date  have  been  within   management's
expectations.  Actual  revenue and cost of contracts in progress may differ from
management  estimates  and such  differences  could be material to the financial
statements.

       During the first six months of 1999,  three  clients  accounted  for 31%,
26%,  and 18% of the  Company's  total  revenue,  respectively.  During the same
period  in 1998,  three  clients  accounted  for 38%,  26% and 11% of the  total
revenue, respectively.

      Income Taxes. The Company is a C Corporation  subject to federal and state
statutory  income tax rates for income  earned.  For the six-month  period ended
June 30,  1999,  a provision  for federal and state  income  taxes was made at a
combined  rate of  approximately  43%.  For the  comparable  period  in 1998,  a
provision for income taxes was made at a rate of approximately 20% on a combined
federal  and state  basis,  which  reflects  the benefit of net  operating  loss
carryforwards.

      Per Share Information.  In 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("FAS 128"). FAS 128 replaced the
calculation  of  primary  and fully  diluted  earnings  per share with basic and
diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary  earnings per share,  basic earnings
per share excludes any dilutive  effects of options,  warrants,  and convertible
securities.  Diluted  earnings  per  share  is very  similar  to the  previously
reported  fully  diluted  earnings per share and includes the effect of dilutive
stock  options.  All  earnings  per  share  amounts  for all  periods  have been
presented,   and  where  appropriate,   restated  to  conform  to  the  FAS  128
requirements.  A  reconciliation  of the  denominators  of the basic and diluted
earnings per share computations required by FAS 128 are presented in Note 3.

      Comprehensive  Income. In 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board
issued No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive Income", which requires that all items
that are required to be recognized under  accounting  standards as comprehensive
income  (revenues,  expenses,  gains and  losses)  be  reported  in a  financial
statement  that is  displayed  with  the  same  prominence  as  other  financial
statements. The Company does not have material components of other comprehensive
income.  Therefore,  comprehensive  income is equal to net earnings reported for
all periods presented.

      Disclosures  about  Segments  of an  Enterprise.  In 1997,  the  Financial
Accounting  Standards  Board issued No. 131,  "Disclosures  about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related  Information",  which  establishes  standards for the way
public business  enterprises  report  information  about  operating  segments in
annual financial  statements.  The Company has one reportable  operating segment
under this  statement,  which is providing  services with respect to operations,
maintenance,    safety,   strategic   business   and   risk   management,    and
environmental/ecological  issues for electric  utility and DOE  facilities.  The
required disclosures are reflected in the financial statements.

Results of Operations

      The Company's  increased revenue in its Rocky Flats subsidiary resulted in
net earnings  before income tax expense of $709,000 and $1,244,000 for the three
and six-month  periods ended June 30, 1999,  respectively.  Net earnings  before
income tax  expense,  litigation  judgment  cost  adjustment,  and special  item
income,  for the  comparable  periods  in  1998,  were  $398,000  and  $806,000,
respectively.

      During  the  second  quarter  and first six  months of 1999,  the  Company
received written contracts and orders having an estimated value of approximately
$5.2 million and $10.8 million,  respectively.  The activity  primarily reflects
the  additional  funding of the  Company's  contract  at the DOE's  Rocky  Flats
Environmental Technology Site and the extension of consulting contracts with two
large electric utility clients.  Contracted backlog for current, active projects
totaled approximately $10.6 million as of June 30, 1999, down from $18.5 million
at December 31, 1998.

      Revenue  increased 46% in the second  quarter and 49% in the first half of
1999,  compared to a year ago,  primarily as a result of  increased  Rocky Flats
Contract  activity.  For  the  second  quarter  and  first  half  of  1999,  the
concentration of revenue from the government  sector increased to 81% and 82% of
total revenue, respectively, from 78% and 75% for the same periods in 1998.

      Direct  costs were  higher in the second  quarter  and first half of 1999,
compared to a year ago,  primarily as a result of increased  revenue  generation
opportunities  and the related use of subcontractor  teams under the Rocky Flats
Contract.  Gross margins  decreased to 23% for the three and  six-month  periods
ended June 30, 1999, from 26% for the same periods in 1998,  primarily due to an
increase in the proportion of lower margin government projects.

      General and  administrative  costs were  higher in the second  quarter and
first half of 1999, compared to a year ago, primarily reflecting increased costs
associated  with the  development of technology  enhanced  training  courses and
higher  performance  bonuses  to  employees  based on higher  operating  income.
However,  general and administrative  expenses,  as a percentage of revenue, for
the  three  and  six-month  periods,  decreased  to 16% in 1999 from 21% in 1998
primarily  reflecting   controlled  cost  structures   associated  with  reduced
corporate and subsidiary administrative staffs.

      The special  item of  $300,000,  in the first half of 1998,  reflects  the
additional  realized gain from the Asset Sale  associated  with the repayment of
the Promissory Note (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

      The litigation  judgment cost adjustment in 1998 relates to the settlement
of litigation for $50,000 less than the amount accrued in 1997.

      Other  income  in 1999  reflects  gains  on sale of  assets  related  to a
facility  closure.   Other  income  in  1998  reflects  certain  accounting  and
administrative  services  provided on a temporary  basis to the purchaser in the
Asset Sale. These services ceased in November 1998.

      Net  interest  income  in 1999  and  1998  represents  earnings  from  the
investment  of  cash  balances  in  short-term,  high-quality,   government  and
corporate debt  instruments.  The lower net interest income in 1999, as compared
to a year ago,  primarily  reflects  lower  interest  rates.  The Company had no
borrowings  under its line of  credit  during  the first six  months of 1999 and
1998.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Cash and cash  equivalents  decreased  by $7,000  during the first half of
1999.  The  decrease  was  due  to  cash  used  by  operations  ($549,000),  net
acquisition of equipment  ($101,000),  and cash used to repurchase Company stock
($66,000).

      Receivables  increased by $1,784,000 from December 31, 1998, primarily due
to an increase  in revenue in the first half of 1999.  The  allowance  for sales
adjustments remained at the same level as December 31, 1998.

      Accounts  payable  increased by $942,000 since the end of 1998,  primarily
associated  with higher  direct costs  supporting  increased  revenues.  Accrued
compensation  and related  expenses  increased  by  $229,000  during the period,
primarily  reflecting  merit  increases in employee  salaries and lower usage of
paid-time-off benefits in the first half of 1999.

      No cash dividend was declared in the first six months of 1999.

      The impact of  inflation  on project  revenue and costs of the Company was
minimal.

      At June 30, 1999,  the Company had  available  $2,500,000  of a $3,000,000
revolving loan facility.  The Company has no outstanding  borrowing  against the
line;  however,  $500,000 is assigned to support standby letters of credit.  The
line of credit expires in May 2000.

      Management believes that cash expected to be generated by operations,  the
Company's  working  capital,  and its loan  facility  are  adequate  to meet its
anticipated liquidity needs through the next twelve months.


Year 2000 Issue

      Many existing  computer programs use only two digits to identify a year in
the date field.  These programs were designed and developed without  considering
the  impact  of the  upcoming  change in the  century.  If not  corrected,  many
computer  applications  could fail or create erroneous results by or at the Year
2000. The Year 2000 issue affects virtually all companies and organizations. The
Company's technical personnel have substantially  completed assessing the impact
of the Year 2000 issue on the Company's products and services.

      The  Company  has  established  a  two-phase  program  to ensure  that its
proprietary software and internal computer systems are Year 2000 compliant.  The
initial  phase,  which included  planning,  inventory and  assessment,  has been
completed.  The final phase, which consists of correction,  testing,  deployment




                                       9
<PAGE>


and  acceptance,  has been  substantially  completed  and  final  completion  is
expected  by  the  end  of  third  quarter   1999.   The  Company  has  expended
approximately  $25,000 to make its  proprietary  software and  internal  systems
compliant and expects to spend less than $25,000 more to complete its compliance
program.  The total  expenditures will not have a material effect on its overall
financial position or results of operations.

      The Company has also substantially completed the same two-phase program to
assess the risks to the Company of systems owned and operated by outside parties
but used by the Company in its leased and rented  facilities which have embedded
technology,  such as elevator  systems,  security  systems,  and other  physical
office  infrastructure.  The Company has  examined  infrastructure  issues on an
office-by-office  basis.  The initial phase was completed at the end of 1998 and
the final phase was substantially  completed at June 30, 1999. The owners of the
facilities  leased by the Company have advised that they have  corrected the key
embedded technology problems and will continue to examine and test their systems
through the balance of 1999. No costs have been expended by the Company  through
the second  quarter of 1999.  The  Company  will  develop  contingency  plans to
address any such embedded technology issues as they are identified.

      The Company's  major clients,  subcontractors,  banking  institution,  and
payroll vendor have advised that their Year 2000  compliance  efforts are either
substantially complete or are expected to be complete by September 30, 1999. The
Company will develop contingency plans for any such clients and vendors who will
not be Year 2000 ready.

      Even with the effort to address the Year 2000 issue made by the Company to
date,  there can be no assurance that the systems of other entities on which the
Company  relies,  including  the  Company's  internal  systems  and  proprietary
software, will be one-hundred percent remediated, or that a failure to remediate
by another  entity and/or the Company,  would not have a material  effect on the
Company's results of operations.

      The Company will continue to utilize both internal and external  resources
to reprogram,  or replace,  and test software for Year 2000  modifications.  The
total cost  associated  with the required  modifications  and conversions is not
expected to exceed $50,000, including infrastructure and embedded technology.
