      INTERSTATE NATIONAL DEALER SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1. The  interim  consolidated  financial  statements  included  herein have been
prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to 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.
These financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1999.

2. In the  opinion  of the  Company,  the  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated
financial  statements  contain  all  adjustments   (consisting  of  only  normal
recurring  accruals)  necessary to present  fairly the financial  position as of
April 30, 2000,  and the  consolidated  results of operations and cash flows for
the periods ended April 30, 2000 and 1999. The accounting  policies  followed by
the Company are set forth in the  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements
included in the Annual Report mentioned above.

3. The  consolidated  results of operations  for the six and three month periods
ended April 30, 2000 and 1999 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

4. The Company  follows the  provisions  of Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  ("SFAS") No. 128,  "Earnings  Per Share."  Basic net income per share
("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted  average number
of common shares  outstanding.  Diluted net income per share  ("Diluted EPS") is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted  average number of common shares
and dilutive common share  equivalents then  outstanding.  SFAS No. 128 requires
the presentation of both Basic EPS and Diluted EPS on the face of the statements
of operations.

A  reconciliation  between the numerators and  denominators of Basic and Diluted
EPS is as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

    For the Six Months  ended  April 30, 2000  compared to the Six Months  ended
April 30, 1999

      Revenues  increased  approximately  $3,296,000,  or 13%, to  approximately
$28,580,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2000 as compared to approximately
$25,284,000 for the six months ended April 30, 1999. This increase was primarily
due to: (i) an increase in the  recognition  of deferred  contract  revenue as a
result of an increase in the total number of unexpired  service  contracts under
administration;  and (ii) an  increase  in  administrative  and  insurance  fees
resulting from an increase in the fees charged per contract.

    Costs  of  services   provided,   which  consist  primarily  of  claims  and
cancellation  costs,   increased  by  approximately   $2,151,000,   or  17%,  to
approximately  $14,825,000  for the six months ended April 30, 2000, as compared
to  approximately  $12,674,000  for the six months  ended April 30,  1999.  As a
percentage of revenues,  cost of services provided  increased to 52% for the six
months  ended  April 30,  2000 as  compared  to 50% for the same period in 1999.
Claims and  cancellation  costs are  directly  affected  by the total  number of
unexpired contracts under administration, which has increased on a yearly basis.

    Gross margin increased by approximately  $1,145,000, or 9%, to approximately
$13,755,000   for  the  six  months  ended  April  30,  2000,   as  compared  to
approximately $12,610,000 for the six months ended April 30, 1999. This increase
is primarily  attributable to the increase in revenues as described above. Gross
margin for the six months  ended  April 30,  2000 was 48% as compared to 50% for
the six months ended April 30, 1999. This decrease is primarily  attributable to
an  increase  in the  relative  percentage  of revenue  represented  by deferred
contract  revenue,  which has a low gross margin,  as compared to administrative
fees which have a higher gross margin.

    Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased by  approximately
$2,272,000,  or 20%, to approximately $13,685,000 for the six months ended April
30, 2000, up from  approximately  $11,413,000 for the six months ended April 30,
1999.  This increase was in large part due to (i)  Uautobid.com  expenses;  (ii)
increases in selling expenses  primarily due to increased  commissions paid as a
result  of  increased  sales  revenue;   and  (iii)  increases  in  general  and
administrative expenses due to increased personnel costs.  Uautobid.com expenses
of  approximately  $917,000 were incurred in the six months ended April 30, 2000
as the Company continued to develop and position its web site. Selling,  general
and administrative  expenses were 48% of revenues for the six months ended April
30, 2000 as compared to 45% for the six months ended April 30, 1999.

    Interest   income   increased  by   approximately   $532,000,   or  65%,  to
approximately $1,345,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2000, as compared to
approximately  $813,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase is primarily a
result of an  increase  in  investment  income  generated  by funds  provided by
operating activities in the twelve months ended April 30, 2000.

    Income  before   provision  for  income  taxes  increased  by  approximately
$323,000, or 16%, to approximately $2,332,000 for the six months ended April 30,
2000,  as  compared  to  approximately  $2,009,000  for the same period in 1999,
exclusive of the Uautobid.com expenses. For the six months ended April 30, 2000,
the  Company  had income  before  provision  for income  taxes of  approximately
$1,415,000 and recorded a provision for income taxes of approximately  $519,000,
as  compared  to income  before  provision  for  income  taxes of  approximately
$2,009,000  and a provision  for income taxes of  approximately  $768,000 in the
same period in 1999. Net income  decreased  approximately  $345,000,  or 28%, to
approximately  $896,000  for the six months  ended April 30, 2000 as compared to
approximately  $1,241,000  for the six months ended April 30, 1999. The decrease
in net  income is the result of the  Uautobid.com  expenses  incurred  in fiscal
2000.

    Diluted  net income per share for the six months  ended  April 30,  2000 was
$.18 per share as  compared to diluted net income per share of $.25 for the same
period in 1999.  Excluding  the  Uautobid.com  expenses,  diluted net income per
share for the six months  ended April 30,  2000 was $.29 per share,  or $.04 per
share  greater  than diluted net income per share for the six months ended April
30, 1999.

    For the Three Months ended April 30, 2000 compared to the Three Months ended
April 30, 1999

      Revenues  increased  approximately  $1,597,000,  or 12%, to  approximately
$15,347,000   for  the  three  months  ended  April  30,  2000  as  compared  to
approximately  $13,750,000  for the three  months  ended  April 30,  1999.  This
increase was  primarily due to: (i) an increase in the  recognition  of deferred
contract  revenue as a result of an  increase in the total  number of  unexpired
service contracts under  administration;  and (ii) an increase in administrative
and insurance fees resulting from an increase in the fees charged per contract.

    Costs  of  services   provided,   which  consist  primarily  of  claims  and
cancellation  costs,   increased  by  approximately   $1,255,000,   or  19%,  to
approximately  $7,996,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2000, as compared
to  approximately  $6,741,000  for the three months  ended April 30, 1999.  As a
percentage of revenues, cost of services provided increased to 52% for the three
months  ended  April 30,  2000 as  compared  to 49% for the same period in 1999.
Claims and  cancellation  costs are  directly  affected  by the total  number of
unexpired contracts under administration, which has increased on a yearly basis.

    Gross margin  increased by approximately  $342,000,  or 5%, to approximately
$7,351,000   for  the  three  months  ended  April  30,  2000,  as  compared  to
approximately  $7,009,000  for the  three  months  ended  April 30,  1999.  This
increase is  primarily  attributable  to the  increase in revenues as  described
above.  Gross  margin  for the three  months  ended  April  30,  2000 was 48% as
compared to 51% for the three  months  ended April 30,  1999.  This  decrease is
primarily  attributable  to an increase in the  relative  percentage  of revenue
represented  by deferred  contract  revenue,  which has a low gross  margin,  as
compared to administrative fees which have a higher gross margin.

    Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased by  approximately
$1,091,000, or 18%, to approximately $7,285,000 for the three months ended April
30, 2000, up from approximately  $6,194,000 for the three months ended April 30,
1999.  This increase was in large part due to (i)  Uautobid.com  expenses;  (ii)
increases in selling expenses  primarily due to increased  commissions paid as a
result  of  increased  sales  revenue;   and  (iii)  increases  in  general  and
administrative   expenses  due  to  increased   personnel  costs  and  increased
professional fees. Uautobid.com expenses of approximately $480,000 were incurred
in the three months ended April 30, 2000 as the Company continued to develop and
position its web site. Selling,  general and administrative expenses were 47% of
revenues  for the three  months  ended April 30, 2000 as compared to 45% for the
three months ended April 30, 1999.

    Interest   income   increased  by   approximately   $289,000,   or  71%,  to
approximately $696,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2000, as compared to
approximately  $407,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase is primarily a
result of an  increase  in  investment  income  generated  by funds  provided by
operating activities in the twelve months ended April 30, 2000.

    Income before provision for income taxes increased by approximately $21,000,
or 2%, to approximately $1,242,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2000, as
compared to approximately  $1,221,000 for the same period in 1999,  exclusive of
the  Uautobid.com  expenses.  For the three  months  ended April 30,  2000,  the
Company had income before provision for income taxes of  approximately  $762,000
and recorded a provision for income taxes of approximately $282,000, as compared
to income before  provision for income taxes of  approximately  $1,221,000 and a
provision for income taxes of approximately $472,000 in the same period in 1999.
Net income decreased  approximately  $270,000, or 36%, to approximately $480,000
for the three months ended April 30, 2000 as compared to approximately  $749,000
for the three  months  ended April 30,  1999.  The decrease in net income is the
result of the Uautobid.com expenses incurred in fiscal 2000.

    Diluted net income per share for the three  months  ended April 30, 2000 was
$.10 per share as  compared to diluted net income per share of $.15 for the same
period in 1999.  Excluding  the  Uautobid.com  expenses,  diluted net income per
share for the three months ended April 30, 2000 was $.15 per share,  the same as
diluted net income per share for the three months ended April 30, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    Cash and cash  equivalents,  United  States  Treasury  Bills,  at cost,  and
marketable  securities  were  approximately  $51,964,000  at April 30, 2000,  as
compared to  approximately  $50,627,000  at October 31,  1999.  The  increase of
approximately  $1,337,000  was  primarily  the  result of cash  provided  by the
Company's operating activities partially offset by cash used for the purchase of
furniture, fixtures and equipment and cash used to purchase treasury stock.

    During the fiscal year ended  October 31, 1997,  the Company  entered into a
$3,000,000  revolving  credit facility with the Chase Manhattan Bank.  Under the
terms of the  facility,  advances bear interest at 1/2% above the prime rate and
the  Company is  obligated  to pay an annual  facility  fee of 1/2% of the total
available amount. Outstanding amounts under the credit facility are secured by a
pledge of all  accounts  receivable  of the Company.  As at April 30,  2000,  no
amounts had been borrowed under the credit facility.

    The Company believes that its current available cash and anticipated  levels
of  internally  generated  funds  will  be  sufficient  to  fund  its  financial
requirements at least for the next fiscal year at the Company's present level of
revenues and business activity.

Impact of Inflation

    The Company  does not believe  that  inflation  has had, or will have in the
foreseeable future, a material impact upon the Company's operating results.

Year 2000

    The Year 2000 issue exists  because many computer  systems and  applications
currently  use  two-digit  date fields to designate a year.  As the century date
change occurred, date-sensitive systems will recognize the year 2000 as 1900, or
not at all.  This  inability to  recognize  or properly  treat the Year 2000 may
cause  systems  to  process  critical  financial  and  operational   information
incorrectly.  The  Company's  computer  systems  use  four-digit  date fields to
designate a year and, as a result,  the Company  believes  that its systems will
properly  recognize  the Year 2000.  The  Company  has  contacted  its  critical
suppliers of services to determine  that the services that they provide are Year
2000  compliant.  The Company  believes,  based upon its internal  reviews,  the
configuration of the Company's systems, inquiries made of its critical customers
and suppliers, and other factors, that the future external and internal costs to
be incurred  relating to the modification of internal-use  software for the Year
2000 will not be material to the  Company's  results of  operations or financial
position.  To date,  the  Company  has not  experienced  any Year  2000  related
problems.
