              CSI COMPUTER SPECIALISTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (Unaudited)



Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

         The condensed financial  statements at March 31, 1997 and for the three
month  periods  ended  March 31,  1997 and 1996 are  unaudited  and  reflect all
adjustments  (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion  of  management,  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the  financial
position and operating results for the interim periods.  The condensed financial
statements  have been prepared in accordance  with the rules and  regulations of
the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and therefore omit certain information
and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles.  The Company believes
that  the  disclosures  contained  in the  condensed  financial  statements  are
adequate  to make  the  information  presented  not  misleading.  The  financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto,  together  with  management's  discussion  and  analysis  of  financial
condition and results of operations, contained in the Company's Annual Report on

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


GENERAL

         The  Company  provides  a full  range of  computer  hardware  services,
including sales and maintenance of mainframe and midrange computer equipment and
parts, network design and installation,  computer upgrades, and installation and
de-installation  of  equipment.   These  services  are  provided  to  commercial
customers,  agencies  of  federal,  state and local  governments,  universities,
associations and hospitals  primarily in the  Mid-Atlantic  region of the United
States, including West Virginia,  Virginia,  Maryland, the District of Columbia,
New Jersy, New York and Pennsylvania.

         The Company's principal business is providing computer  maintenance and
repair services,  which are provided under both fixed fee and time and materials
arrangements.  Under the fixed fee  arrangement,  which is the primary method of
service,  a customer  pays a fixed  monthly  fee for the term of the  agreement,
generally one to two years,  for which the Company  provides the parts and labor
for both scheduled  preventative  maintenance and emergency repairs. The Company
records  the  revenue  from  fixed fee  contracts  ratably  over the term of the
contract,  while the costs the  Company  incurs to provide the  maintenance  and
emergency  repairs  are  charged  to  expense  as  incurred.   Accordingly,  the
profitability  of the Company's  maintenance and repair services can and will be
affected  by period to period  fluctuations  in the number and  severity  of the
emergency repairs required by its customers, which the Company cannot predict or
control.  Additionally,  in certain  circumstances  the  Company  will choose to
provide the contracted-for services by subcontracting with others,  particularly
when the equipment covered by the agreement is extremely expensive, difficult to
repair  or  replace,  or  requires  unique  engineering  expertise  that  is not
applicable  to equipment  utilized by a  significant  number of  customers.  The
Company obtains such subcontracting services through short-term agreements,  and
its  profit   margin  will   generally  be  lower  than  if  the  work  was  not
subcontracted.  Accordingly,  operating  results  may  fluctuate  from period to
period  as the  result of  changes  in the  level  and  nature of  subcontracted
services.

         The sale of computer equipment accounts for a rapidly expanding portion
of the Company's  business,  and, as a result,  revenues therefrom have and will
continue to fluctuate  from period to period.  This  fluctuation  is expected to
decrease with the  acquisition  of Cintronix,  Inc.,  ("Cintronix")  in January,
1997.  Cintronix,  Inc. is a MicroAge  franchisee  specializing in the sales and
service of  personal  computers.  It is hoped that  cross-marketing  between the
Company and Cintronix will stabilize the seasonal nature of Cintronix's sales as
well as introduce the Company's equipment  salespersons to Cintronix's  existing
customer  base.  In addition,  mainframe  equipment  sales are entered into more
commonly to secure contracts for the maintenance  thereof than for the profit on
the equipment sale itself, and the margins on all sales of equipment are subject
to market conditions.  Consequently,  operating profits as a percentage of gross
sales are subject to  fluctuation  due to the volume of equipment  sales.  Other
areas of expansion are in the areas of servicing laser printers,  providing help
desk support  services,  and expanding the Company's  technical  capabilities to
maintain the more current mainframe technology.  Expansion of the network design
and  installation  is expected to be facilitated by the acquisition in February,
1997 of Advanced  Network  Systems  ("ANS").  ANS provides  network  integration
service  and sales to over  three  hundred  companies  and  associations  in the
Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company's  first quarter net revenues of $5,263,731 was an increase
of 79 percent  over first  quarter  net  revenues  in the prior  fiscal  year of
$2,946,094.  This  increase in net revenues  resulted  from sales growth in both
maintenance  services and equipment sales, with the primary increase in revenues
generated by inclusion of revenues from  Cintronix,  Inc.,  the  acquisition  of
which was completed by the Company in January,  1997.  Maintenance  revenues for
the first  quarter of 1997  increased  approximately  23 percent  over the first
quarter of 1996,  primarily  from  expansion of the Company's  book of business.
Equipment  sales  for the first  quarter  of 1997  increased  169% over the same
period  of 1996,  with the  Company  increasing  its sales by  approximately  60
percent and the balance of 119 percent being  provided by revenues  generated by
Cintronix,  Inc.  Management  intends to increase  marketing  efforts to promote
continued  growth in both of these areas of revenues,  and  anticipate  that the
marketing staffs of both the Company and each of the  subsidiaries  will be able
to cross-promote  the other companies'  primary areas of expertise.  Maintenance
services  accounted for  approximately 42 and 62 percent,  respectively,  of the
Company's consolidated revenues for the first quarters of 1997 and 1996.

         The Company's  cost of sales as a percentage of revenues was 71 percent
in the first  quarter of 1997 compared to 70 percent in the same period of 1996.
A small  decrease  in the  costs of  maintenance  services  as a  percentage  of
maintenance  service  income was offset  partially  with a small decrease in the
profit margin  percentages on the equipment sales.  Increased costs of emergency
replacement  parts was partially offset by a lessened  reliance on subcontracted
services.  Additionally,  gross margins in fiscal 1997 are adversely affected by
the  continued   development  of  the  Company's  Richmond  operations  and  the
integration  of the acquired  companies.  The Company  expects that the costs of
maintenance  services as a percentage of maintenance  service income to possibly
increase in future  quarters as the  Company  expands the mix of hardware  which
will  be  maintained  under  contracts  and  until  the  Richmond  operation  is
self-sufficient,   but  hopes  to  partially  offset  these  costs  by  reducing
subcontract  expense as the Company develops the additional  in-house expertise,
and by  increasing  both the book of fixed  fee  agreements  and the  parts  and
equipment  sales. As the Company expands its equipment sales  operations,  gross
margins will also drop as a percentage of overall sales,  due to the lower gross
margins on equipment sales when compared to maintenance sales. But the increased
personal  computer  sales  generated  by  Cintronix  is  expected  to  stabilize
fluctuations in the margins on equipment sales.

         Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses as a percentage  of net
revenues  were 25  percent  for the first  quarters  of both 1996 and 1995.  The
Company expects  short-term  fluctuations in this percentage in the future as it
adds  to  its  technical  support,  marketing  staff  and  other  administrative
personnel in order to expand its customer base and increase equipment sales.

         Net interest income decreased to $35,053 for the first quarter of 1997,
compared  with $52,059 for the same period of the prior year.  This is primarily
due to the use by the Company of the proceeds of its public offering to complete
the  acquisitions  of  Cintronix,  Inc. in January,  1997 and  Advanced  Network
Systems in February,  1997.  The Company  expects that net interest  income will
decrease as the remaining  proceeds from the Company's  initial public  offering
are utilized as projected in the Company's registration statement.

         Net income  increased 24 percent to $155,083  for the first  quarter of
1997 from $125,337 in the first quarter of the prior year.  The increase for the
quarter  is  primarily  attributable  to less  reliance  on  subcontractors  for
maintenance  services  when  compared to the prior year,  as well as the margins
generated  by the increase in parts and  equipment  sales.  Subcontractor  costs
could continue to decrease as the necessary  expertise is developed  in-house to
service the newer  technology;  however,  as the Company signs contracts on even
more recent  technology,  the services of subcontractors  may still be required.
The  Company  expects  that the  Richmond  operations'  revenues  will cover its
expenses  in the  near  future.  However,  internal  expansion  into  other  new
geographic regions can be expected to adversely affect overall results until the
newly established  operation obtains maintenance  contracts  sufficient to cover
minimum fixed  operating  costs.  Expansion has also been and may continue to be
accomplished by the acquisition of existing operations,  in which case operating
results may not be affected by such start-up losses, but may instead reflect the
impact of the amortization of any goodwill paid in the acquisition,  as occurred
with the acquisitions of CCS Systems, Cintronix and ANS.

         The  consistency  of the  Company's  results  of  operations  has  been
significantly  affected by the costs of geographic  expansion and changes in the
computer market,  as well as by the  acquisitions  which have changed the mix of
the  Company's  sales.  The Company  believes  that in the future its results of
operations in a quarterly  period could be impacted by factors such as increased
competition  in  a  mainframe  market  that  has  been  shrinking  due  to  site
consolidations  and conversions to mid-range network  installations  (which is a
more  competitive  market).  The  companies  acquired  are  part of the  plan to
position the Company to effectively compete in the mid-range network market. The
Company hopes to offer existing mid-range networks the expanded  capabilities of
the mainframe technology available, as well as offer services connected with the
conversion of mainframe installations to mid-range,  thus assuring continuity of
the customer relationship. In addition, expansion of the maintenance services to
include the newer mainframe technology and laser printers,  as well as expansion
of software  support and help desk services will provide for continued growth of
the  Company.   The  coordination  of  the  marketing  staffs  of  each  of  the
subsidiaries  with that of the  Company to  cross-market  each  other's  primary
expertise and to provide  additional  services to the combined list of customers
is also  expected  to  increase  the  performance  of the Company in the future.
However,  results could be negatively  affected by the start-up costs related to
expansion of operations to equipment  not  previously  serviced or to geographic
areas not previously supported.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Working capital,  which consists principally of cash and investments in
government securities for terms of three months or less, was $2,247,607 at March
31, 1997,  compared to  $3,915,578  at December  31, 1996.  The ratio of current
assets to current  liabilities  decreased  to 3.0:1 from 7.5:1 at  December  31,
1996. Cash flows from  operations  during the first three months of 1997 totaled
$111,661,  resulting  primarily  from a decrease  in  accounts  receivable,  and
partially  offset by the decrease in accounts  payable and accrued expenses that
were part of the acquisition of Cintronix. The decrease in the current ratio was
due chiefly to the $1.1 million in cash spent for the acquisitions of Cintronix,
Inc. and Advanced Network Systems.  The Company believes that its existing cash,
as  supplemented  by cash flow from  operations,  is  sufficient  to satisfy its
currently anticipated working capital needs.

         Effective  August 1, 1996,  the Company's  $750,000  revolving  line of
credit  with  Citizens  Bank of Maryland  was renewed to continue  until May 31,
1997.  There is presently  no balance owed on this line of credit.  In addition,
upon  completing  the  acquisition of Cintronix,  Inc.,  the Company  guaranteed
Cintronix's $1.3 million revolving line of credit with First Union National Bank
of  Virginia.  This line of credit bears  interest at prime plus 1%,  making the
rate 9.75% at March 31, and the balance owed at March 31 was $713,000.

         The  Company's  principal  commitments  at March 31, 1997  consisted of
obligations under operating leases for facilities.
