                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.    ORGANIZATION

         National Datacomputer, Inc. (the "Company") designs, develops,
      manufactures, markets and services a line of hand-held battery powered
      microprocessor-based data collection products and computers and associated
      peripherals for use in mobile operations.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements, which are for interim
      periods, do not include all disclosures provided in the annual financial
      statements. These unaudited financial statements should be read in
      conjunction with the financial statements and the footnotes thereto
      contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December
      31, 1998 of National Datacomputer, Inc., as filed with the Securities and
      Exchange Commission.

      INTERIM PERIODS

         In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial
      statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal and recurring
      nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The
      results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not
      necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

      REVENUE RECOGNITION

         The Company recognizes revenues for products upon shipment at the time
      of delivery to the customer, provided that the Company has no remaining
      significant service obligations that are essential to the functionality of
      the product delivered, collectibility is considered probable, and the fees
      are fixed and determinable.

         Revenue from installation and training is recognized upon completion of
      the project. Service revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual
      periods.

      EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Net income (loss) per share is computed under Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic net income
      (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss), after
      deducting certain amounts associated with the Company's preferred stock,
      by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
      period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted
      average number of common shares outstanding and gives effect to all
      dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period.

         Interest payable to preferred stockholders, the fair value of
      inducements to convert preferred stock into common stock, and any
      discounts implicit in the conversion terms upon issuance of preferred
      stock are subtracted from the net income (loss) to determine the amount of
      net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders

      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 reported amount of assets and liabilities and
      disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, and
      the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual
      results could differ from these estimates.

      of the following:          SEPTEMBER 30,     DECEMBER 31,

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.

         The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998.

         Total revenues in the third quarter of fiscal year 1999 were $1,288,178
compared to $1,672,319 in the prior comparable quarter, a decrease of 23%. The
decrease reflects a broader, more desirable customer distribution in the third
quarter of 1999 where no customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue,
as compared to the third quarter of 1998 where one customer accounted for 50% of
total revenue

         Cost of sales and services, as a percentage of net revenues decreased
in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 to 43% from 45% in the comparable quarter of
the prior fiscal year. The decrease is primarily attributable to the sales of a
different mix of products in the third quarter of 1999 which carry a higher
margin. The higher margins which resulted from the product mix in the third
quarter of 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the margins to be expected in
future quarters.

         Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenue for
the third quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased to 15% from 16% in the comparable
quarter of the prior fiscal year. Actual research and development spending
decreased by 28% in absolute dollars to $196,808 in the third quarter of fiscal
1999, from $271,918 for the same period in 1998. The decrease in expenditures
reflects a change in emphasis in 1999 from 1998 that requires less funding. In
1999, this represents concentration on enhancing and refining both hardware and
software products, rather than focusing in 1998 on initiating new products
development.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 increased to 33% from 26% in the
comparable quarter of the prior fiscal year. Actual selling, general and
administrative spending decreased by 3% in absolute dollars to $426,717 in the
third quarter of fiscal 1999, from $441,783 for the same period in 1998. The
lower level of costs resulted primarily from a decrease in sales personnel costs
and professional fees.

         The Company's operating income was $111,717 for the third quarter of
fiscal 1999, compared to $208,976 in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year.
The decrease in income was primarily attributable to the lower sales level
offset by the improved margin combined with the lower expenses as discussed
above.


                                        9
<PAGE>

         NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998.

         The Company's total revenues for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 were $3,580,843 which represents an 8% decrease from total revenue of
$3,907,574 for the same period of the prior fiscal year. As it was previously
discussed in the three months comparison, the decrease in revenue reflects a
broader, more desirable customer distribution in the nine months of 1999 where
no customers accounted for more than 5% of total revenue, as compared to the
nine months of 1998 where one customer accounted for 25% of total revenue.

         Cost of sales and services, as a percentage of net revenues for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 was 48% as compared to 51% for the same
period of the prior fiscal year. The improved gross margin is primarily
attributable to the sales of a different mix of products in the third quarter of
1999 which carry a higher margin. The higher margins which resulted from the
product mix in the nine months of 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
margins to be expected in future periods.

         Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenues for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased to 19% from 18% for the same
period in the prior fiscal year. Actual research and development spending
decreased only by 1% in absolute dollars to $680,099 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $690,404 for the same period in the prior fiscal year.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 decreased to 34% from 36%
for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Actual selling, general and
administrative spending decreased by 14% in absolute dollars to $1,215,946 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $1,409,121 for the same period in
the prior fiscal year. The lower level of costs resulted primarily from a
decrease in sales personnel costs and professional fees.

         The Company's operating loss was $41,558 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to an operating loss of $198,783 for the same
period in the prior fiscal year. The decreased loss was primarily attributable
to the improved margin combined with the decrease in the expenses as discussed
above.

         Interest expense was $6,580 in the first nine months of fiscal 1999,
compared to $36,892 in the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease
resulted primarily from the amortization in the first quarter of 1998 of
approximately $23,000 to interest expense related to the discount on the
convertible debt recorded in 1997.

                                       10

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's financial condition strengthened as of September 30,
1999, when compared with December 31, 1998. The Company's cash balance increased
approximately $140,000, or 28%, to $630,971 with a current ratio of 2.7:1. The
Company anticipates that available cash, together with cash flow from
anticipated operations, will be sufficient to meet its working capital needs for
the remainder of fiscal 1999. However, unanticipated adverse results of
operations could impact anticipated cash flows and, as a result, there can be no
assurance that the Company will not be required to raise additional capital or
that the Company will be able to raise additional capital on favorable terms, if
at all.
