NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. GENERAL
QuickResponse Services, Inc. (the Company) provides a centralized
product information database (The QRS Catalog), Inventory Management
Services (QRS Catalyst, a sales analysis tool, QRS Replenishment and QRS
Forecasting), network services including electronic data interchange
services (EDI services), and QRS Logistics Management Systems to
retailers and merchandise suppliers and carriers, to automate and
improve their merchandise and logistics management.
The balance sheet as of June 30, 1997, the statements of earnings for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, and the
statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows at June 30, 1997 and for all periods
presented have been made. The balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 is
derived from the Company's audited financial statements as of that date.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as permitted by
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
previously furnished amounts have been reclassified to conform with
presentations made during the current periods. It is suggested that
these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with
the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles necessarily requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual amounts may
differ from such estimates.
The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results anticipated for
the full year.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
1997 presentation.
2. STOCK OPTIONS
During the first six months of 1997, the Company granted 180,000 options
to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at prices of $28.38 to
$37.75 based on quoted market prices at the dates of the grant under the
Company's incentive compensation and automatic grant plans. During the
first six months of 1997, options to purchase 72,750 shares of common
stock and 5,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock were
exercised. At June 30, 1997, 923,846 shares are subject to outstanding
options, of which 205,033 options are exercisable. Options to purchase
approximately 343,746 shares of common stock are available for future
grants under plans. During the six months ended June 30, 1997,
compensation expense recognized pursuant to the granting of stock
options totaled $18,000 as a result of amendments to certain options.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per
Share" (SFAS 128). The Company is required to adopt SFAS 128 in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 and will restate at that time earnings per
share (EPS) data for prior periods to conform with SFAS 128. Earlier
application is not permitted.
SFAS 128 replaces current EPS reporting requirements and requires a dual
presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and
is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average of common
shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential
6
<PAGE>
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue
common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
If SFAS 128 had been in effect during the current and prior year period,
basic EPS would have been $0.25 and $0.18 for the quarters ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and $0.48 and $0.35 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.respectively. Diluted EPS under SFAS 128
would not have been significantly different than primary or
fully-diluted EPS currently reported for the periods.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THIS FORM 10-Q CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHICH INVOLVE RISKS AND
UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM
THE RESULTS DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF
CERTAIN OF THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM
10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996.
GENERAL
QuickResponse Services, Inc. is the leading provider of merchandise logistics
solutions throughout the entire retail demand chain. The Company works with
its customers and partners to facilitate and optimize the flow of
information, goods and services throughout the retail industry. The
Company's products include: a centralized product information database (The
QRS Catalog); Network Services, which include electronic data interchange
(EDI) and related network services, QRS EConnect and Internet Services;
transportation and logistics services, including QRS Logistics Management
Services; and QRS Inventory Management Services, which includes sales
analysis, replenishment and forecasting service offerings. In addition to
these network centric applications, the Company also provides consulting
services. The Company derives revenues from five principal and related
sources: the transmission of standard business documents over a network;
monthly charges for accessing The QRS Catalog; Inventory Management Services
fees based upon the number of products and retail outlets under management;
and Logistics Management Services fees based on the number of loads tendered;
and consulting fees. Network Services pricing is based primarily on the
volume of characters transmitted and the type of network access utilized, and
also incorporates discounts based on volume.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's revenues increased by 25% to $17.0 million for the second
quarter of 1997, from $13.6 million for the second quarter of 1996. The
Company's revenues increased by 27% to $33.4 million during the first six
months of 1997 from $26.3 million for the same period of 1996. These
increases were primarily attributable to three factors. First, the number of
customers increased from 195 retailers and 4,917 vendors and carriers as of
June 30, 1996 to 225 retailers and 5,453 vendors and carriers as of June 30,
1997. Second, the number of catalog trading partnerships increased as a
result of the increase in the number of customers and their trading links
with each other. Second, customers increased the number, type and size of
transactions transmitted over the network, as well as the utilization of The
QRS Catalog and Logistics Management Services. Revenues associated with the
Company's other products did not contribute a significant amount of revenue
to the Company during the first six months of 1997. However, Inventory
Management Services revenue did grow as a result of the increase in the
number of products managed from 160,000 at June 30, 1996 to 5 million at June
30, 1997.
Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of purchasing network services
and the cost of the Company's data center and technical customer support
services. Cost of sales increased by 16% to $9.6 million for the second
quarter of 1997, from $8.3 million for the second quarter of 1996. Cost of
sales increased by 17% to $18.7 million during the first six months of 1997
from $16.1 million for the same period of 1996. The increase was principally
due to increases in purchased network services, reflecting growth in EDI
services, and expanded customer support, technical support groups and data
center operations, reflecting growth in the Company's value-added
applications. The gross profit margin was 43% for the second quarter of 1997
compared to 39% for the second quarter of 1996. This improved margin is
primarily due to network service margins which were favorably impacted as a
result of certain negotiated discount adjustments, announced and implemented
in the fourth quarter of 1997, with the IBM International Global Network, the
Company's primary provider of network services. Furthermore, the Company
experienced increases in higher margin revenue from The QRS Catalog and
increased operating efficiencies in data center operations, which were
partially offset by increased sales of certain lower margin network services
and volume discounts earned by larger customers.
8
<PAGE>
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and
personnel-related costs in the Company's sales and marketing organizations,
as well as the costs of various marketing programs. Sales and marketing
expenses increased 21% to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 1997, from
$1.6 million for the second quarter of 1996. Sales and marketing expenses
increased by 35% to $4.3 million for the first six months of 1997, compared
to $3.2 million for the same period of 1996. This increase reflects
additional sales staff, product branding activities and incremental trade
show activities to support the increase in the number of customers and the
size of the Company's operations.
Product development expenses consist primarily of personnel and equipment
costs related to new product development and upgrade of existing service
offerings. Product development costs increased by 84% to $1.2 million for the
second quarter of 1997, from $658,000 for the second quarter of 1996. Product
development costs increased by 66% to $2.2 million for the first six months
of 1997 compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 1996. The increase
primarily resulted from additional employees and consultants working on
product development projects.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of the personnel and
related costs of the Company's finance and administrative organizations, as
well as professional fees and other costs, such as directors and officers'
liability insurance. General and administrative expenses increased 40% to
$1.2 million for the second quarter of 1997, compared to $866,000 for the
second quarter of 1996. General and administrative expenses increased by 43%
to $2.4 million for the first six months of 1997 compared to $1.7 million for
the same period in 1996. The increase was primarily due to increased payroll
and professional fees and also includes certain costs associated with hiring
a new President and Chief Executive Officer in February 1997.
Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on cash, cash
equivalents and investment securities. Interest income increased to $505,000
for the second quarter of 1997, compared to $360,000 for the second quarter
of 1996 as a result of higher invested balances offset partially by a lower
yield on investments. Interest income was $946,000 for the first six months
of 1997 and $717,000 for the same period in 1996.
Income tax was $1.4 and $1.0 million for the second quarter of 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Income taxes were $2.7 million for the first six months of 1997
compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 1996. The 1997 and 1996
income tax rates of 40% approximate the combined effective federal and state
income tax rates.
As a result of the foregoing, net earnings increased 39% to $2.1 million for
the second quarter of 1997, compared to $1.5 million for the second quarter
of 1996. Net earnings for the first six months of 1997 was $4.0 million
compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital increased from $29.4 million at December 31,
1996 to $30.3 million at June 30, 1997 related primarily due to the increase
in accounts receivable, as well as the decrease in the sublease loss reserve.
Deferred income tax assets decreased as the Company continued to use tax Net
Operating Losses (NOLs) to defer the Company's cash requirements for tax
payments. The Company expects to have utilized all such NOLs during 1997,
and expects an increase in the use of cash for payment of taxes thereafter.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities available-for-sale increased
from $34.6 million at December 31, 1996 to $36.4 million at June 30, 1997.
Total assets increased from $55.9 million at December 31, 1996 to $60.8
million at June 30, 1997, while total liabilities decreased from $12.4
million to $12.0 million.
The $2.8 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 1996
to June 30, 1997 results primarily from the $4.6 million increase in the
Company's marketable securities available-for-sale. A larger portion of the
Company's cash not required for operating activities was invested during the
quarter in securities with maturities over 90 days, which are reported as
marketable securities available-for-sale.
On April 22, 1997, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has
authorized the repurchase from time to time of up to $5 million of its Common
Stock in both open market and block transactions.

Shares purchased under this program will be held in the corporate treasury
for future use including employee stock option grants and the employee stock
purchase plan. The Company may discontinue purchases of its Common Stock at
any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted.
During the second quarter of 1997, the Company repurchased 1,300 shares of
common stock for $35,000.
Management believes that the cash resources available at March 31, 1997, and
cash anticipated to be generated from future operations will be sufficient
for the Company to meet its working capital needs, capital expenditures and
Common Stock repurchases for the next year. The Company does not intend to
pay cash dividends with respect to common stock in the foreseeable future.
