                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




To Performance Professionals, Inc. and Affiliates:

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Performance 
Professionals, Inc. (a Colorado corporation), Abacus Consulting Group, Inc. 
(a Colorado corporation), and Abacus Consultants, Inc. (a Colorado 
corporation) as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related combined 
statements of income and retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then 
ended.  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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards 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.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the combined financial position of the Performance 
Professionals, Inc., Abacus Consulting Group, Inc. and Abacus Consultants, 
Inc. as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the results of their operations 
and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION OF BUSINESS

    Performance Professionals, Inc. ("Performance"), Abacus Consultants, 
Inc., ("AC") and Abacus Consulting Group, Inc. ("ACG") (collectively the 
"Company") were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado.  
Performance and ACG operate a temporary staffing business in Denver, Colorado 
which provides professional and technical temporary staffing employees, 
primarily information systems related, to various businesses.  AC provides 
permanent placement services to various businesses.

         On June 26, 1996, the Company signed an agreement to sell certain 
assets and substantially all of the operations of the Company to SOS Staffing 
Services, Inc. who assumed control of the operations of the Company on July 
1, 1996.  The accompanying financial statements presented are pre-acquisition 
financial statements of the combined entities and do not reflect any purchase 
accounting adjustments.

PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION

    The combined financial statements include the financial position and 
operating results of Performance and its affiliates, AC and ACG.  Combined 
financial statements are more meaningful than separate statements as the 
companies operate under common ownership and management.  All significant 
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Temporary services revenues are recognized when the services are rendered 
by the Company's temporary employees.  Permanent placement revenues are 
recognized when employment candidates accept offers of permanent employment.

USE OF ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial 
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the 
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

    Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the 
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.  Leasehold 
improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the 
estimated economic lives of the assets, whichever is shorter.  The 
depreciation and amortization periods range from four to seven years.

    Upon retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost 
and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the 
accounts.  The resulting gain or loss is reflected in income.  Major renewals 
and betterments are capitalized while minor expenditures for maintenance and 
repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

OTHER ASSET

    Other assets consist primarily of the cash surrender value of life 
insurance policies and investments in marketable securities.

INCOME TAXES

    Performance and AC have elected, for federal and state income tax 
purposes, to include their taxable income with that of its shareholders (an S 
Corporation election).  Accordingly, these companies make no provision for 
income taxes. These companies distribute amounts as needed for the payment of 
the shareholders' federal and state income taxes.  Distributions are recorded 
in the accompanying financial statements when paid.

    ACG is a taxable entity for state and federal income tax purposes. 
Accordingly, ACG has recorded a provision for income taxes in the 
accompanying financial statements.  Also, ACG recognizes a liability or asset 
for the deferred tax consequences of all temporary differences between the 
tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the 
financial statements. As of December 31, 1994 and 1995, the Company had a net 
deferred income tax liability of $56,405 and $19,222, respectively, which 
resulted primarily from using the cash basis of accounting for income tax 
reporting purposes.  

UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA

    The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 1996 and 
for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 have been prepared in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim 
financial information.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments 
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair 
presentation have been included.  Operating results for the six months June 
30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected 
for the full year.

NOTE 2.  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

    During the year ended December 31, 1995, one customer accounted for 
approximately 44 percent of service revenues. During the year ended December 
31, 1994, two customers accounted for approximately 23 and 17 percent, 
respectively, of service revenues.

NOTE 3.  COMMITMENTS

    The Company leases its office facilities under a noncancelable operating 
lease.  Operating lease payments totalled $20,515 for each of the years ended 
December 31, 1994 and 1995.  Operating lease payments totalled $10,257 and 
$10,724, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996.  
Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases total 
$10,724, which are payable during fiscal 1996.

                             SOS STAFFING SERVICES, INC.
                     NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL DATA
                                           
                                           
(1)     Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying pro forma condensed statements of income are presented 
to give effect to the acquisition of certain assets and substantially all of 
the business operations of Performance Professionals, Inc., Abacus 
Consultants, Inc. and Abacus Consulting Group, Inc.  (collectively 
"Performance")  which occurred in June, 1996.  These condensed statements of 
income assume that the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the periods 
presented. Such information does not purport to be indicative of the results 
which would have actually been obtained if the acquisition had been effected 
at the beginning of the periods presented nor is it indicative of actual or 
future operating results.

     The historical income statement period of SOS Staffing Services, Inc.  
(the "Company") for the fifty-two weeks ended December 31, 1995 includes a  
pro forma adjustment for income taxes related to the termination of the 
Company's S corporation election which was done in connection with the 
Company's initial public offering in July 1995.  

     The historical periods presented for Performance  represent their year 
ended December 31, 1995 and their six months ended June 30, 1996.

     The purchase method of accounting has been used in preparing the pro 
forma condensed income statements.  The purchase price was approximately 
$3,389,500 in cash plus contingent future earnout payments not to exceed 
$1,775,000.  The initial  purchase price, which was paid in June 1996, was 
allocated based on the fair value of the net assets acquired and resulted in 
allocating approximately $20,000 to equipment and $3,369,500 to goodwill and 
other intangibles.

(2) Pro Forma Adjustments

      (A)  In connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into 
employment contracts with two key executives which provided for total annual 
compensation of $200,000.  These adjustments reflect (i) the elimination of 
excess compensation expense in the amount of $442,000 for the year ended 
December 31, 1995 and the recording of additional compensation of $40,000 for 
the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 1996,   (ii) the amortization of goodwill 
totaling $109,724 for the year ended December 31, 1995 and $54,862 for the 
twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 1996 based on a thirty year amortization 
period and (iii) the amortization of other intangible assets of $16,668 and 
$8,334, respectively based on a six year amortization period.

     (B)  Long-term debt was used to fund the majority of the initial 
purchase price.  This adjustment  reflects the additional  interest expense 
of $251,962 for the year ended December 31, 1995 and $125,981 for the  
twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 1996 calculated using an interest rate of 
7.5% on funds borrowed to make the purchase.

     (C)  Adjustment to record the income tax provision or benefit at the 
combined statutory federal and state income tax rate of 38%. Two of these 
entities had previously elected S Corporation status and accordingly, did not 
record an income tax provision or benefit.
