NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The  accompanying  unaudited  financial  statements  have been  prepared by
International  Network Services (the "Company") in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Certain information and
footnote  disclosures  normally  included in  financial  statements  prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles have been condensed or
omitted  in  accordance  with such  rules and  regulations.  In the  opinion  of
management,   the  accompanying   unaudited  financial  statements  reflect  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
present  fairly  the  financial  position  of the  Company,  and its  results of
operations  and  cash  flows.  These  financial  statements  should  be  read in
conjunction  with the audited  financial  statements  and notes  thereto for the
fiscal  years  ended June 30,  1996,  1995 and 1994  included  in the  Company's
Registration  Statement  on Form S-1 (File  No.  333-9287),  which was  declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 1996.

     For purposes of  presentation,  the Company has indicated the third quarter
and the  first  nine  months  of  fiscal  1997 and 1996 as  ending  on March 31,
respectively;  whereas,  in fact the Company's fiscal quarters end on the Sunday
nearest the end of the calendar quarter.

     The results of  operations  for the three and nine  months  ended March 31,
1997 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending June 30, 1997 or any other future  interim  period,  and the Company
makes no representations related thereto.

NOTE 3--CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

     The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with original
maturities  of three  months or less to be cash  equivalents.  Cash  equivalents
include  commercial  paper,  U.S.  Treasury  Bills,  demand notes and government
agency  bonds.   Short-term   investments,   all  of  which  are  classified  as
"available for  sale",  consist of high quality debt  securities  with  original
maturity  dates greater than 90 days. In accordance  with Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 115,  "Accounting for Certain  Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities,"  investments in securities  classified as available for sale
are  reported at fair value with  unrealized  gains and  losses,  net of related
taxes,  reported as a separate  component of shareholders'  equity. At March 31,
1997, the estimated fair value approximated cost.


NOTE 4--INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

     In September 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering ("IPO")
of  2,875,000  shares  of Common  Stock for $16 per  share,  which  resulted  in
proceeds to the Company of approximately $41.9 million, net of issuance costs of
approximately   $924,000.  All  shares  of  Mandatorily  Redeemable  Convertible
Preferred Stock outstanding at June 30, 1996 were  automatically  converted into
16,734,889 shares of Common Stock on a one for one basis upon the closing of the
IPO.


NOTE 5--NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Net income  per share is  computed  using the  weighted  average  number of
common and common  equivalent  shares  ("weighted  average shares")  outstanding
during the period.  Pursuant to the  requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission,  common and common equivalent shares issued within one year prior to
the Company's initial public offering date have been included in the computation
as if they were  outstanding  for all periods  presented  prior to the effective
date of the Company's initial public offering,  even if anti-dilutive (using the
treasury stock method and the assumed  initial public  offering  price).  Common
equivalent shares consist of Mandatorily  Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
(using the if  converted  method)  and stock  options  and  warrants  (using the
treasury stock method).

NOTE 6--RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARD

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128 (FAS 128), "Earnings Per Share." It replaces the presentation of primary
earnings  per share (EPS) with a  presentation  of basics EPS. It also  requires
dual  presentation  of  basic  and  diluted  EPS on the  face  of the  financial
statements.  Basic  EPS is  computed  by  dividing  income  available  to common
stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS under APB Opinion
No. 15.  FAS 128 must be adopted  for the  second  quarter of fiscal  1998.  The
following table represents unaudited, pro forma disclosures of basic and diluted
earnings per share in accordance  with FAS 128 assuming the standard was applied
during all periods presented below:

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

     International  Network  Services  ("INS" or "the Company") is a provider of
services for complex enterprise networks.  The Company provides services for the
full  life  cycle of a  network,  including  planning,  design,  implementation,
operations  and  optimization,  and  maintains  expertise  in the  most  complex
technologies and  multi-vendor  environments.  Areas of expertise  include WANs,
network  management,  network and host  security and high  performance  LANs and
VLANs.  Substantially  all of the Company's revenue is derived from professional
services,  which are  generally  provided  to clients  on a "time and  expenses"
basis.  Professional  services  revenue is recognized as services are performed.
Any payments received in advance of services  performed are recorded as deferred
revenue.  The Company also  performs a limited  number of  fixed-price  projects
under which revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion  method. In
addition, the Company is leveraging its expertise in complex networks to develop
electronic  services for certain  repetitive  network  management tasks, such as
network  monitoring  and network  performance  reporting.  Revenue  derived from
electronic  services  has not  been  significant  to date.  Electronic  services
revenue is  recognized  ratably over the term of the  contract.  As of March 31,
1997, the Company had 579 network systems engineers.

     The following  discussion  contains forward looking  statements  within the
meaning of Section 27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  and Section
21E of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Predictions of future
events are  inherently  uncertain.  Actual events could differ  materially  from
those predicted in the forward  looking  statements as a result of the risks set
forth in the following discussion,  and in particular, the risks discussed below
under the caption "Risk Factors that May Affect Operating Results."

REVENUE

     Substantially  all of the  Company's  revenue  is  derived  from  fees  for
professional   services.  The  Company  also  derives  revenue  from  electronic
services;  however,  such  revenue  has not been  significant  to date.  Revenue
increased  118% to $26.5  million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from
$12.2 million in the same period of the prior year.  Revenue  increased  135% to
$68.8  million in the nine months ended March 31, 1997 from $29.3 million in the
same period in the prior year. Revenue increased primarily due to an increase in
the number of professional  service  projects and to the increase in the size of
projects.  The  Company  does  not  believe  that  these  rates  of  growth  are
sustainable in future periods.  The Company's revenue is dependent in large part
on its  ability  to  attract,  retain  and  utilize  qualified  network  systems
engineers.

OPERATING EXPENSES

     Professional  personnel.  Professional personnel expenses consist primarily
     -----------------------
of compensation and benefits of the Company's  employees engaged in the delivery
of  professional  services  and  electronic  services.   Professional  personnel
expenses were $12.4 million and $31.3 million for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended March 31, 1997,  respectively,  compared to $5.4 million and $13.2
million,  respectively,  for the same  periods in fiscal  1996.  The increase in
absolute  dollars is  attributable  primarily  to an  increase  in the number of
network  system  engineers.  As a percent  of  revenue,  professional  personnel
expenses increased to 46.6% and 45.5% for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended  March 31,  1997,  respectively,  compared to 44.7% and 45.2% for the same
respective periods in the prior year.  Professional personnel expenses increased
as a percent of revenue in the three  month and nine month  periods  ended March
31, 1997 due to lower utilization of professional personnel.

     Sales and  marketing.  Sales and marketing  expenses  consist  primarily of
     --------------------
compensation  (including  commissions)  and  benefits  of  sales  and  marketing
personnel and outside marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses were $4.0
million and $10.2 million for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March
31, 1997, respectively, compared to $2.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively,
for the same  periods in fiscal 1996.  The increase in absolute  dollars was due
primarily to the growth in the number of sales and  marketing  employees  and to
commissions resulting from increased revenue. As a percent of revenue, sales and
marketing  expenses  decreased  to  14.9%  and  14.8%  for the  three-month  and
nine-month  periods  ended March 31, 1997,  respectively,  from 18.0% and 18.3%,
respectively,  in the same periods of fiscal 1996. The decrease, on a percentage
basis,  was due  primarily  to a  decrease  in  commission  rates and  increased
revenue.

     General and administrative.  General and administrative expenses consist of
     --------------------------
expenses associated with executive staff, finance and administration,  corporate
facilities,  information systems and human resources. General and administrative
expenses were $3.5 million and $9.7 million for the  three-month  and nine-month
periods ended March 31, 1997,  respectively,  compared to $1.6 and $3.1 million,
respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1996.  General and  administrative
expenses have increased in absolute  dollars as the Company has continued to add
personnel  to  support  the  Company's  growth in  operations.  As a percent  of
revenue,  general and  administrative  expenses increased to 13.3% and 14.1% for
the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 1997, respectively,  from
12.9 % and 10.5%, respectively,  in the same periods of fiscal 1996. General and
administrative expenses increased as a percent of revenue in the three-month and
nine-month periods ended March 31, 1997 as a result of the Company's  investment
in its infrastructure to support the growth in operations.

     Other  costs.  Other  costs  consist of  expenses  related to  professional
     ------------
personnel  (other  than   compensation  and  benefits),   including  travel  and
entertainment,  certain recruiting and professional  development expenses, field
facilities,  depreciation,  expensed  equipment and  supplies,  and research and
development  expenses  related to  electronic  services.  Other  costs were $3.6
million and $9.9 million for the three-month and nine-month  periods ended March
31, 1997, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $4.3 million, respectively,
for the same periods in fiscal 1996. Other costs increased primarily as a result
of increases in the number of professional  personnel employed,  and to a lesser
extent, the costs of field offices established since the first quarter of fiscal
1996.  Other costs  decreased as a percent of revenue to 13.4% and 14.4% for the
three-month  and  nine-month  periods  ended March 31,  1997,  respectively,  as
compared to 15.1% and 14.8%, respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1996.
Other costs, as a percent of revenue,  fluctuate  primarily due to the timing of
training and recruiting expenses.

     Interest  and Other,  Net.  Interest and other,  net,  consists of interest
     ------------------------- 
income and expense. Interest income consists primarily of interest on cash, cash
equivalents and short term investments and notes  receivable from  shareholders.
Interest  expense  consists of interest  associated  with bank  borrowings.  Net
interest income was $350,000 for the three-month  period ended March 31, 1997 as
compared to net  interest  expense of $2,000 for the  three-month  period  ended
March 31, 1996. Net interest  income was $704,000 and $21,000 for the nine-month
periods  ended  March  31,  1997 and 1996,  respectively.  The  increase  in net
interest income reflects  increased cash available for investment and a decrease
in bank borrowings during the first quarter of fiscal 1997. All outstanding debt
was repaid upon completion of the initial public offering in September 1996.

     Provision for Income Taxes.  Income tax expense represents combined federal
     --------------------------
and state taxes at an effective rate of 39% for fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Prior to its initial public  offering,  the Company financed its operations
and  investments  in property and equipment  primarily  through a combination of
cash generated from operations,  the private sale of equity securities,  private
debt and bank  borrowings.  In September 1996, the Company  completed an initial
public  offering of common  stock  resulting  in net  proceeds to the Company of
approximately  $41.9  million.  The  Company has a bank  credit  facility  which
includes a revolving  line of credit that provides for  borrowings  equal to the
lesser  of  $6.0  million  or 80% of  eligible  accounts  receivable  and a term
facility that provides for  borrowings up to $3.0 million for capital  equipment
purchases.  Advances under the revolving line and term facility bear interest at
the bank's prime rate plus 1.00% and 1.25%, respectively.  As of March 31, 1997,
there were no  borrowings  under these credit  facilities.  The credit  facility
expires in June  1997,  is  secured  by  substantially  all of the assets of the
Company,  and contains  customary  covenants and  restrictions.  As of March 31,
1997, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants and restrictions.

     At March 31, 1997, the Company had $34.2 million in cash, cash  equivalents
and short-term investments,  representing an increase of $33.4 million from June
30, 1996.  The increase was  primarily  due to cash  provided as a result of the
completion of the Company's initial public offering.

     Net cash used in  operations  for the first nine  months of fiscal 1997 was
$711,000.  Cash used in  operations  primarily  reflects  increases  in accounts
receivable.  Although the Company believes its collections  experience is within
industry  standards,  the  Company's  inability to collect for its services on a
timely basis in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business,  operating results and financial condition.  Capital expenditures were
$6.1  million  during  the  nine  months  ended  March  31,  1997.  The  capital
expenditures were primarily  attributable to additional  equipment  requirements
associated  with  increases  in the number of  employees  and  expenditures  for
equipment  and office  furniture  associated  with the  Company's  new corporate
headquarters and other field  facilities.  The Company currently has no material
capital commitments.

     The  Company  believes  that the  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  short-term
investments, together with available credit facilities,  will be sufficient to
meet its working capital and capital  expenditure  requirements for at least the
next twelve  months.  The Company may also  utilize cash to acquire or invest in
complementary   businesses   or  to  obtain  the  right  to  use   complementary
technologies.


RISK FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT OPERATING RESULTS

     The  following  risk factors  could  materially  and  adversely  affect the
Company's  future  operating  results  and could cause  actual  events to differ
materially  from those  predicted in the  Company's  forward-looking  statements
related to its business.

     Variability  of  Quarterly  Operating  Results.  Substantially  all  of the
     ----------------------------------------------
Company's  revenue is derived from  professional  services,  which are generally
provided  on a "time and  expenses"  basis.  Professional  services  revenue  is
recognized only when network systems  engineers are engaged on client  projects.
In  addition,  a  substantial  majority  of the  Company's  operating  expenses,
particularly personnel and related costs,  depreciation and rent, are relatively
fixed in advance of any particular quarter. As a result, any underutilization of
network systems engineers may cause significant  variations in operating results
in any particular  quarter and could result in losses for such quarter.  Factors
which could cause such underutilization include: the reduction in size, delay in
commencement,  interruption or termination of one or more significant  projects;
the  completion  during  a  quarter  of one or more  significant  projects;  the
overestimation of resources  required to complete new or ongoing  projects;  and
the timing and extent of training, weather related shut-downs, vacation days and
holidays.  The Company's revenue and earnings may also fluctuate from quarter to
quarter  based on a variety  of  factors  including  the loss of key  employees,
reductions in billing rates, write-offs of billings, or services performed at no
charge as a result of the Company's  failure to meet its clients'  expectations,
claims by the  Company's  clients  for the  actions of the  Company's  employees
arising from damages to clients' business or otherwise,  competition,  timing of
employment taxes, the initial or ongoing market acceptance of EnterprisePRO (see
"Uncertainty of Market Acceptance of Electronic Services"),  the development and
introduction of new services and general economic conditions.  In addition,  the
Company plans to continue to expand its operations by hiring additional  network
systems engineers and other employees, and adding new offices, systems and other
infrastructure.  The  resulting  increase  in  operating  expenses  would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's  operating  results if revenue were not
to increase  to support  such  expenses.  Based upon all of the  foregoing,  the
Company believes that quarterly revenue and operating results are likely to vary
significantly  in  the  future  and  that  period-to-period  comparisons  of its
operating results are not necessarily  meaningful and should not be relied on as
indications of future performance. Furthermore, it is likely that in some future
quarter  the  Company's   revenue  or  operating   results  will  be  below  the

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
expectations of public market analysts or investors. In such event, the price of
the Company's Common Stock would likely be materially adversely affected.


     Risks  Associated  with  Client  Concentration.  The  Company has derived a
     ----------------------------------------------
significant  portion of its revenue from a limited  number of large  clients and
expects this concentration to continue.  The Company's largest client, MCI Corp.
("MCI"),  accounted for approximately  $7.5 million,  or 17.0%, of the Company's
revenue  in fiscal  1996.  No one  customer  accounted  for more than 10% of the
Company's  revenues  for the three or nine month  periods  ended March 31, 1997.
There can be no  assurance  that  revenue  from MCI or other  clients  that have
accounted for significant  revenue in past periods,  individually or as a group,
will  continue,  or if continued will reach or exceed  historical  levels in any
future period.  The Company does not have a long-term services contract with MCI
or any of its other clients. Any significant  reduction in the scope of the work
performed for MCI, any other significant  client or a number of smaller clients,
the failure of anticipated projects to materialize, or deferrals,  modifications
or  cancellations  of  ongoing  projects  by any of these  clients  could have a
material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  business,  operating  results  and
financial condition.

     Need to  Attract  and  Retain  Qualified  Network  Systems  Engineers.  The
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Company's future success will depend in large part on its ability to hire, train
and retain network systems engineers who together have expertise in a wide array
of network and computer systems and a broad  understanding of the industries the
Company serves.  Competition for network systems engineers is intense, and there
can be no  assurance  that the Company  will be  successful  in  attracting  and
retaining such personnel. In particular,  competition is intense for the limited
number of qualified managers and senior network systems  engineers.  The Company
has experienced,  and may in the future experience, high rates of turnover among
its network systems  engineers.  Any inability of the Company to hire, train and
retain a sufficient  number of qualified  network systems engineers could impair
the Company's ability to adequately manage and complete its existing projects or
to obtain new projects,  which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business,  operating results and financial condition. In addition,
any  inability  of the  Company to attract  and  retain a  sufficient  number of
qualified  network  systems  engineers in the future could impair the  Company's
planned expansion of its business.

     Management  of Growth.  The Company has  recently  experienced  a period of
     ---------------------
rapid  revenue and client  growth and an increase in the number of its employees
and offices and the scope of its supporting infrastructure. The Company does not
believe these rates of growth are  sustainable.  This growth has resulted in new
and  increased  responsibilities  for  management  personnel  and has placed and
continues  to  place  a  significant  strain  on the  Company's  management  and
operating  and  financial  systems.  The Company will be required to continue to
implement  and improve its systems on a timely  basis and in such a manner as is
necessary to accommodate the increased  number of  transactions  and clients and
the increased size of the Company's  operations.  There can be no assurance that
the  Company's  management  or systems will be adequate to support the Company's
existing  or future  operations.  Any  failure  to  implement  and  improve  the
Company's systems or to hire and retain the appropriate  personnel to manage its
operations  would  have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  business,
operating results and financial condition.

     Absence of Long-Term  Agreements.  The Company's clients are generally able
     --------------------------------
to reduce or cancel their use of the  Company's  professional  services  without
penalty and with little or no notice. As a result, the Company believes that the
number and size of its existing projects are not reliable indicators or measures
of future  revenue.  The Company has in the past provided,  and is likely in the
future to provide,  services to clients  without a long-term  agreement.  When a
client  defers,  modifies  or cancels a  project,  the  Company  must be able to
rapidly  redeploy  network  systems  engineers  to  other  projects  in order to
minimize the  underutilization  of employees and the resulting adverse impact on
operating results. In addition,  the Company's operating expenses are relatively
fixed and cannot be  reduced on short  notice to  compensate  for  unanticipated
variations  in the number or size of  projects  in  progress.  As a result,  any
termination, significant reduction or modification of its business relationships
with any of its  significant  clients or with a number of smaller  clients could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,  operating results and
financial condition.

     Intense Competition.  The network services industry is comprised of a large
     -------------------
number of participants  and is subject to rapid change and intense  competition.
The Company faces  competition  from system  integrators,  value added resellers
("VARs"),   local  and  regional  network  services  firms,   telecommunications
providers,  network  equipment  vendors,  software  vendors and computer systems
vendors,  many of which have  significantly  greater  financial,  technical  and
marketing  resources and greater name recognition,  and generate greater service
revenue than does the Company. The Company has faced, and expects to continue to
face,  additional  competition  from new entrants  into its  markets.  Increased
competition   could  result  in  price   reductions,   fewer  client   projects,
underutilization  of  employees,  reduced  operating  margins and loss of market
share,  any of which could materially  adversely affect the Company's  business,
operating  results and financial  condition.  There can be no assurance that the
Company  will  be  able  to  compete  successfully  against  current  or  future
competitors.  The  failure of the 

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
Company to compete successfully would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

     Uncertainty  of Market  Acceptance  of Electronic  Services.  The Company's
     -----------------------------------------------------------
long-term  strategy  is to  derive a  portion  of its  revenue  from  electronic
services,  although such revenue has not been  significant  to date. The Company
has in the past offered,  on a limited basis, an electronic service that has not
achieved  significant market acceptance or generated  significant  revenue.  The
Company has expended, and expects to continue to expend,  substantial amounts in
the  development  and  marketing  of its  electronic  services.  The Company has
recently introduced  EnterprisePRO,  an enhanced version of the prior electronic
service.  The  introduction of EnterprisePRO  and any other electronic  services
that the Company  may  develop in the future will be subject to risks  generally
associated  with new service  introductions,  including  delays in  development,
testing or introduction, or the failure to satisfy clients' requirements.  There
can be no assurance that  EnterprisePRO  will gain market acceptance on a timely
basis or at all.  The  failure  of  EnterprisePRO,  or any other new  electronic
services  that the Company may develop,  to gain market  acceptance  on a timely
basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,  operating
results and financial condition.

     Relationship   with   Cisco   Systems.    Although   the   Company   is   a
     -------------------------------------
vendor-independent  provider of network services,  the Company has a significant
relationship  with Cisco Systems,  Inc.  ("Cisco") and believes that maintaining
and enhancing this  relationship  is important to the Company's  business due to
Cisco's leading position in the large scale, enterprise  internetworking market.
Cisco   develops,   manufactures,   markets   and   supports   high-performance,
multiprotocol  internetworking  systems that link geographically  dispersed LANs
and WANs.  The Company has entered into direct  relationships  with clients as a
result of referrals from Cisco and has from time to time performed pre-sales and
post-sales  support  services for Cisco. In addition,  Cisco is a shareholder of
the  Company  and an  employee  of Cisco is a member of the  Company's  Board of
Directors.  Although the Company  believes that its  relationship  with Cisco is
good,  there can be no  assurance  that the Company  will be able to maintain or
enhance  its  relationship  with  Cisco.  Any  deterioration  in  the  Company's
relationship  with Cisco could have a material  adverse  effect on the Company's
business,  operating results and financial  condition.  In addition,  should the
Company's  relationship  with Cisco be perceived as  compromising  the Company's
ability to provide unbiased solutions,  the Company's relationship with existing
or potential clients could be materially adversely affected.

     Risks  Associated  With  Potential  Acquisitions.  As part of its  business
     ------------------------------------------------
strategy,  the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant  investments in,
complementary companies, products or technologies.  Any such future transactions
would be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making acquisitions of
companies,  products and  technologies.  Such risks include,  among others,  the
difficulty associated with assimilating the personnel and operations of acquired
companies,  the  potential  disruption of the Company's  ongoing  business,  the
distraction  of management and other  resources,  the inability of management to
maximize  the  financial  and  strategic  position  of the  Company  through the
successful  integration  of  acquired  personnel,  technology  and  rights,  the
maintenance of uniform  standards,  controls,  procedures and policies,  and the
impairment  of  relationships  with  employees  and  clients  as a result of the
integration  of new  management  personnel.  There can be no assurance  that the
Company  will be  successful  in  overcoming  these risks or any other  problems
encountered in connection with any such acquisitions.

     Risks Associated With Potential International Expansion. A component of the
     -------------------------------------------------------
Company's  long-term  strategy is to expand into international  markets.  If the
Company  opens any  international  offices  and the revenue  generated  by these
offices are not adequate to offset the expense of  establishing  and maintaining
these  foreign  operations,  the  Company's  business,   operating  results  and
financial condition could be materially adversely affected.  The Company intends
to open its first international office in fiscal 1998, however, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to do so on a timely basis, or at all.
To date, the Company has provided limited professional services to certain of
its United States based clients in foreign locations. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to successfully market, sell and deliver its
services in these markets. In addition to the uncertainty as to the Company's
ability to expand into international markets, there are certain risks inherent
in conducting business on an international level, such as unexpected changes in
regulatory requirements, export restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers,
difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations, employment laws and
practices in foreign countries, longer payment cycles, problems in collecting
accounts receivable, political instability, fluctuations in currency exchange
rates, imposition of currency exchange controls, seasonal reductions in business
activity during the summer months in Europe and certain other parts of the
world, and potentially adverse tax consequences, any of which could adversely
impact the success of the Company's international operations. There can be no
assurance that one or more of these factors will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's future international operations and, consequently, on
the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively in these
markets.
