                           TSR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                February 29, 1996

1.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have
     been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
     for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-QSB
     of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and
     notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
     financial statements. For further information refer to the Registrant's
     consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
     Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 1995.

2.   In the opinion of the Registrant, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
     condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
     normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated
     financial position, the consolidated results of operations, and
     consolidated cash flows for the periods presented.

3.   The Registrant is engaged primarily in the business of providing contract
     programming services. In addition, the Registrant provides maintenance and
     support for its conversion software and provides program updating and
     consulting services to American Express Bank, Ltd. (AEBL). Additionally,
     the Registrant provided construction specifications databases on magnetic
     media through March 1, 1996, and provided temporary nursing services
     through October 8, 1995. The results of operations for the nine month
     period ended February 29, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected for the full year.

4.   The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of
     TSR, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
     balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

5.   Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of United States Treasury Bills
     with a maturity at acquisition of 90 days or less.

6.   Marketable securities consist primarily of United States Treasury Bills
     with a maturity at acquisition in excess of 90 days. Such investments are
     expected to be held to maturity and are carried at amortized cost. Included
     with marketable securities are the Registrant's trading securities which
     consist of those investments the Registrant considers short-term in nature.
     Such investments are carried at their fair market value. At February 29,
     1996, the amortized cost approximated market value and no adjustments were
     made. A breakdown of the investments are as follows:

                   Held to maturity ...............   $2,174,305
                   Trading securities .............      199,053
                                                      ----------
                                                      $2,373,358
                                                      ==========

7.   On July 6, 1995 the Board of Directors of the Company declared a cash
     dividend of $0.40 per share on Common Stock payable on August 28, 1995 to
     shareholders of record on July 31, 1995. The Company funded such dividend
     from its available cash and matured marketable securities. This dividend,
     which amounted to $605,828 did not have a material impact on the liquidity
     of the Company. This dividend was declared due to the Registrant's
     favorable operating results achieved during fiscal 1995. The Registrant has
     not adopted a policy of paying dividends on a regular periodic basis.

8.   In the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Registrant determined to
     discontinue its health care services business. The growth and profitability
     experienced had not matched the Registrant's expectations when the business
     commenced. Small improvements in operating results notwithstanding, the
     Registrant had concluded that its resources were better utilized in the
     further development of its contract programming business. Therefore, the
     existing caseload was transferred to another licensed home care agency as
     of the close of business October 8, 1995.

9.   In February 1995 the Board of Directors of the Registrant authorized the
     repurchase of up to 150,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock. The
     first transactions under this authorization occurred during the quarter
     ended February 29, 1996. To date 42,500 shares have been repurchased at a
     cost of $246,475.

10.  On March 1, 1996 the Registrant's exclusive licensing agreement to market
     construction specifications on magnetic media expired. In anticipation of
     such expiration, the Registrant has accrued $240,00 which it deems adequate
     to cover ongoing customer support costs associated with licenses sold prior
     to March 1, 1996.

                           TSR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated condensed financial statements and the notes to the consolidated
condensed financial statements.

Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended February 29, 1996 as compared with February 28, 1995

Income from operations as a percentage of revenues decreased to 4.2% in the
current nine month period from 4.5% in the prior year comparable period. This
decline occurred despite $180,000 of expenses accrued in the prior year period
to cover ongoing customer support costs to be incurred after the termination of
the Registrant's construction specifications business on March 1, 1996. The
decline in income from operations as a percentage of revenues is attributable to
compensation paid to additional contract programming sales and recruiting
employees, including those hired to open a new office in Connecticut, who do not
make an immediate contribution to operating results but are expected to fuel
future growth. The decline was also attributable to lower margins in contract
programming.

For the nine months ended February 29, 1996, revenues increased $4,007,000 or
20.9% over the prior year period. Although construction specifications and
health care services revenues declined from the prior year, contract programming
services revenues increased $4,436,000, which resulted primarily from further
penetration within existing accounts by the sales personnel.

Cost of sales increased $3,042,000 or 21.9% over the prior year period. This
increase included additonal costs of $3,467,000 from contract programming, which
resulted primarily from the above-mentioned revenue increase. However, the
increase in cost of sales was heightened, to an extent, by reduced margins in
the contract programming business. Cost of sales decreased by $224,000 in the
construction specifications business because of $180,000 of expenses accrued in
the prior year to cover ongoing customer support costs, which will be incurred
after the termination of this business on March 1, 1996. Costs associated with
health care services decreased $200,000 which resulted from the termination of
this business in October 1995.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $857,000, or 19.3% over
the prior year comparable period. The contract programming business incurred
increases of $1,060,000 due to additional commission based compensation on
increased revenues and the hiring of additional sales and recruiting employees.
The investment in new hires is consistent with the Registrant's efforts to
expand the business through the acquisition of new accounts. The health care
services business which terminated in October 1995, and the construction
specifications business both reduced expenses for the period.

Interest and dividend income increased by $32,000 for the period, primarily
because of an increase in short-term interest rates paid on the Registrant's
treasury bills compared to the year ago.

The effective income tax rate decreased to 44.6% in the current period from
47.6% in the prior year period, mainly because of reduced state income taxes in
the current period.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
           OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION, CONTINUED

Three months ended February 29, 1996 as compared with February 28, 1995

Income from operations as a percentage of revenues increased to 3.8% in the
current year quarter from 3.7% in the prior year comparable period. Contract
programming gross margins increased slightly in the current quarter over the
prior year's quarter, reversing a trend of declining spreads which began in
fiscal 1995. There can be no assurances that this reversal will continue or that
gross margins will increase.

For the quarter ended February 29, 1996, revenues increased $1,379,000 or 20.9%
over the prior year period. Contract programming services revenues contributed
$1,618,000 of this increase, which resulted primarily from further penetration
within existing accounts by the sales personnel. Healthcare services revenues
declined $206,000 due to the cessation of operations on October 8, 1995,
although the Registrant still particpates in certain revenues derived by the
successor operation, which revenues are not expected to be material.

Cost of sales increased $1,003,000 or 20.5% over the prior year's quarter. This
increase included additional costs of $1,119,000 from contract programming,
which primarily resulted from the above-mentioned revenue increase. Cost of
sales also decreased by $71,000 in the construction specifications business,
primarily because of $60,000 of expenses accrued in the prior year to cover
costs which will be incurred after the termination of this business on March 1,
1996.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $314,000, or 21.1% over
the prior year comparable period. The contract programming business incurred
increases amounting to $426,000, due to additional commission based compensation
on higher revenues and the hiring of additional sales and recruiting employees.
These new hires included those assigned to the Registrant's new office in
Connecticut. The health care services business reduced expenses $75,000 for the
period due to the termination of the business on October 8, 1995.

Interest and dividend income stayed flat for the quarter, despite an increase in
short-term interest rates paid on the Registrant's treasury bills due to a lower
amount available for investment.

The effective income tax rate decreased to 45.0% in the current quarter from
48.0% in the prior year period mainly because of reduced state income taxes in
the current quarter.

                           TSR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
           OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION, CONTINUED

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Changes in Financial Condition

Subject to continued profitability, the Registrant expects that cash flow
generated from operations will be sufficient to provide the Registrant with
adequate resources to meet all needs with respect to its existing business. In
the event the Registrant requires additional funds, the Registrant expects to
meet such needs not met by operations with its cash and short-term marketable
securities as well as interest earned thereon, which the Registrant believes to
be sufficient for the foreseeable future.

Net cash flow used in operations resulted primarily from an increase in accounts
receivable, which occurred partly because of the revenue increase and partly due
to a longer collection cycle. This use of cash was mostly offset by cash
provided from net income.

Cash flow provided or used by investing activities is affected mostly by the
Registrant's decisions to either purchase United States Treasury Bills with
maturities of three months or those with longer maturities. During the current
quarter, the Registrant did not roll over some of its maturing treasury
securities. This resulted in the funds being reclassified to cash and cash
equivalents from marketable securities for financial statement purposes. Also,
in the current year , the contract programming office in New Jersey relocated to
larger space to facilitate growth and an office was opened in Connecticut. This
resulted in capital expenditures for new telephone equipment, computers and
furniture.

On July 18, 1995 the Board of Directors of the Registrant declared a cash
dividend of $0.40 per share on Common Stock payable on August 28, 1995 to
shareholders of record on July 31, 1995. The Registrant funded such dividend
from its available cash and United States Treasury Bills. This dividend was
declared due to the Registrant's favorable operating results achieved during
fiscal 1995. The Registrant has not adopted a policy of paying dividends on a
regular periodic basis.

In February 1995, the Board of Directors of the Registrant authorized the
repurchase of up to 150,000 shares of the Registrant's common stock. During the
quarter ended February 29, 1996 the first transactions occurred under this
authorization. A total of 42,500 shares were repurchased at a cost of $246,475.

The Registrant's capital resource commitments at February 29, 1996 consisted of
lease obligations on its branch and corporate locations. The Registrant intends
to finance these commitments from cash provided from operations.

Expiration of Licensing Agreement

The Registrant's exclusive licensing agreement with the Construction Sciences
Research Foundation, Inc. (CSRF) under which the Registrant marketed
construction specifications on magnetic media expired March 1, 1996. In
anticipation of the termination of such agreement, the Registrant has accrued
$240,000 which it deems adequate to cover ongoing customer support costs to be
incurred after the termination of the construction specifications business. As a
consequence of the termination of the license, future results from operations
will be negatively impacted on a comparative basis since this business has
contributed operating income of approximately $100,000 per quarter for fiscal
1996.

Termination of Health Care Services Business

In the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Registrant determined to withdraw from
the health care services business. The growth and profitability experience had
not matched what was expected when the business commenced. Small improvements in
operating results notwithstanding, the Registrant had concluded that its
resources were better utilized in the further development of the contract
programming business. The existing caseload was transferred to another licensed
home care agency as of the close of business October 8, 1995.
