Report of Independent Accountants
To the Stockholders of
R&M Enterprises, Inc. and
Williams Truck Brokers, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying combined balance sheet and the related combined
statements of income, of changes in stockholders' equity and of cash flows
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of R&M
Enterprises, Inc, and Williams Truck Brokers, Inc. at December 31, 1998, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
R&M Enterprises, Inc. is a Nebraska corporation engaged in the short and
long haul transportation services business.
Williams Truck Brokers, Inc. is a Nebraska corporation whose business
consists of arranging the shipment of goods for a variety of shippers
utilizing unrelated transportation companies.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Interim statements
The combined financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 1998
and 1999 contained in this report are unaudited but reflect all
adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary
for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The
results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results for the full year.
Principles of combination
The combined financial statements include the accounts of R&M
Enterprises, Inc. and Williams Truck Brokers, Inc. (collectively the
"Company"). The Companies are affiliated through common ownership. All
material inter-company transactions have been eliminated in combination.
Estimates
The process of preparing financial statements requires the use of
estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities,
revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled
transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements.
Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated
amounts.
Revenue recognition
Revenues and related expenses are recognized under a method which
approximates when freight is shipped. The Company believes that
alternative methods of revenue recognition would not result in a material
difference in annual revenues or earnings per share.
Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
Company's cash management program utilizes zero balance accounts.
Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts
receivable. Two customers represent 26% and 27% of the Company's accounts
receivable and revenue balances, respectively, at December 31, 1998.
Although the company does not currently foresee a credit risk associated
with these receivables, payment is dependent upon the financial stability
of these companies.
6
<PAGE>
The Company reviews a customer's credit history before extending credit
and generally does not require collateral. The Company establishes an
allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit
risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. The
Company's historical experience in collection of accounts receivable
falls within the recorded allowances. Due to these factors, no additional
credit risk beyond amounts provided for collection losses is believed
inherent in the Company's trade accounts receivable.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company has short-term trade receivables and payables and long-term
debt instruments, including capital leases. The carrying values of trade
receivables and payables equal current fair value. The terms of the
Company's revolving credit agreement include variable interest rates
which approximate current market rates. The Company's long-term debt
instruments include varying interest rates between 6.9% and 10.25%. Based
on the current balance due, the fair value of these instruments does not
differ materially from the carrying value
Equipment
Equipment is stated at historical cost. Except for life extending repair
costs (such as engine overhauls), all equipment maintenance and repair
costs are charged to operating expense as incurred. The Company
periodically reviews the value of its equipment to determine if an
impairment has occurred. The Company measures the potential impairment of
its equipment by the undiscounted value of expected future operating cash
flows in relation to the fair value of the equipment. Based on its review
the Company does not believe an impairment of its equipment has occurred.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of the asset. Leased equipment is amortized over
varying periods not in excess of the estimated useful life of the asset
or lease term depending on the type of capital lease. Gain or loss upon
retirement or disposal of equipment is recorded as income or expense. The
ranges of depreciable lives used for financial reporting purposes are:
Years
-----------
Tractors, trailers and life extending repairs 3 to 7
Office and shop equipment and furniture 3 to 7
Income taxes
The Company is organized as an S-Corporation and is therefore exempt from
federal and Nebraska state income tax. Taxable income of the Company is
allocated to its shareholders for inclusion in the determination of their
individual taxable income. Accordingly, federal and state income taxes
are not provided for in 1998.
Comprehensive income
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS 130 establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The
provision of SFAS 130 were adopted during the current period. The Company
has no items of other comprehensive income at December 31, 1998.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Business segments
Segments are determined by the "management approach" as described in SFAS
No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," which the Company adopted in 1998. Management views the
Company as operating in a single segment.
Earnings per share (EPS)
Given the historical organization and capital structure of the Company,
earnings per share information is not considered meaningful or relevant and
has not been presented in the accompanying combined financial statements or
notes thereto.

8. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company had outstanding standby irrevocable letters of credit of
approximately $191,000 at December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999. These
letters of credit which are payable at sight, collateralize the Company's
obligations to third parties for the purchase of insurance and fuel. The
contract amounts of these letters of credit approximate their fair value.
9. Related Party Transactions
The Company leases its office and shop space, purchases its business forms,
and hauls goods for businesses in which an owner of the Company is an
owner. During 1998, the Company recorded lease expense, supplies expense,
and operating revenues to these entities of approximately $132,000,
$14,000, and $145,000, respectively.
10. Subsequent Events
On July 19, 1999, the Company was purchased by Transit Group, Inc. Williams
Truck Brokers, Inc. was purchased for cash consideration of $1,450,000. R&M
Enterprises, Inc. was purchased for 1,215,000 shares of TGI valued at $6.1
