</TABLE>
Revenues
Revenues consist primarily of revenues from contract computer programming
services. In addition, the Company's revenues for the quarter ended February 28,
1998 included revenues from its Year 2000 business which was commenced in fiscal
1997. Revenues for the quarter ended February 28, 1998 increased $4,921,000 or
37.7% over the comparable period in fiscal 1997.
Contract computer programming services revenues increased $2,408,000 from
$12,982,000 in the quarter ended February 28, 1997 to $15,390,000 in the quarter
ended February 28, 1998. This increase resulted from an overall increase in the
number of programmers on billing with clients from approximately 425 at February
28, 1997 to approximately 450 at February 28, 1998. Revenue growth during the
quarter ended February 28, 1998 was affected due to the discontinuance of a
significant project by the Company's largest customer, as a result of which
computer programming personnel for the project provided by the Company were no
longer required.
Revenues from the Company's Year 2000 business, which was commenced in fiscal
1997, were $2,561,000 for the quarter ended February 28, 1998. During the
current quarter the Company used its proprietary Catch/21 Software Solution on
conversion projects to remediate approximately 10,000,000 lines of code for
client software applications for a total of sixteen customers. Revenues for the
Year 2000 business in the prior year period were $45,000.
The agreements under which the Year 2000 business revenues were recognized
provide that all payments under the agreements are subject to satisfactory
conversion of the applications. Revenues include amounts billed or paid prior to
the final acceptance by the customer based upon management's belief that
acceptance is probable.
Page 7
<PAGE>
The Company received its initial revenues from the Year 2000 business during its
1997 fiscal year, and its revenues increased to $2,561,000 for the quarter ended
February 28, 1998. However, the Company's Year 2000 business is still in the
relatively early stages and, as a result, its quarterly revenues can be
significantly impacted by the timing of releases of code by the Company's
customers to the Company's conversion facility, as well as the timing of
entering into agreements with new customers. At the present time, the Company
has received less code from customers than it had expected based on customers'
original estimates. In addition, the Company is experiencing more intense
competition, which in turn is creating longer sales cycles and has impacted
obtaining new customers. While the Company believes that its customers have been
satisfied with the Company's Year 2000 conversion services and the performance
of its Catch/21 software and that it is well positioned to expand its Year 2000
business, the above factors and the conditions of the Year 2000 industry
generally make it difficult actually to predict near term revenues.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues decreased from 76.4% in the quarter
ended February 28, 1997 to 71.3% in the quarter ended February 28, 1998. This
decrease is primarily attributable to the cost of sales as a percentage of
revenues in the Year 2000 business being less than the contract computer
programming business.
In the contract computer programming services business, cost of sales as a
percentage of sales increased from 76.3% in the quarter ended February 28, 1997
to 77.4% in the quarter ended February 28, 1998. This increase is attributable
to increases in amounts paid to qualified programming professionals outpacing
the Company's ability to pass these increases on to customers due to competitive
market pressures in the industry.
The Year 2000 business incurred cost of sales of $900,000 or 35.1% of revenues
in the quarter ended February 28, 1998. These costs consisted primarily of
salaries of software analysts and quality assurance personnel. The Company has
increased cost of sales from the Year 2000 business due to the hiring and
training of additional personnel in anticipation of future conversion projects.
During the current quarter, approximately 20 additional analysts were hired to
increase future capacity. Cost of sales for the Year 2000 business in the
quarter ended February 28, 1997 were $62,000.
Research and Development
Research and development costs of $212,000 in the quarter ended February 28,
1998 represent amounts expended by the Company to further develop and enhance
its Catch/21 Software Solution. Currently, the Catch/21 Software Solution can
convert IBM mainframe COBOL , PL/1, RPG, Assembler, CA-ADS, and CA-IDEAL
applications. Additionally, several of the languages are supported in AS/400 and
DEC/VAX environments. The development expenditures are expected to continue
during calendar 1998 as the Company seeks to expand its product offerings to
enable it to convert software applications which run on additional computer
platforms and are written in other languages such as ADABASE/NATURAL,
CA-EASYTRIEVE/EASYPLUS and other fourth generation language platforms which the
Company expects to complete, subject to customer demand, during the next year.
Research and development expenses in the quarter ended February 28, 1997 were
$96,000.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses
relating to account executives, technical recruiters, facilities costs,
management and corporate overhead. These expenses increased $834,000 or 36.9%
from $2,260,000 in the quarter ended February 28, 1997 to $3,094,000 in the
quarter ended February 28, 1998. Selling, general and administrative expenses
related to contract computer programming services increased $201,000 over the
prior year period to $2,366,000. The increase was primarily attributable to
additional sales commissions based on higher gross profits. In addition, this
increase resulted, to a lesser extent, from expenses relating to the hiring of
additional account executives and technical recruiting professionals to expand
the Company's client base and recruit additional technical consultants in
connection with the continuation of the Company's planned expansion.
In the quarter ended February 28, 1998, approximately $726,000 in selling,
general and administrative expenses were attributable to the Year 2000 business.
These expenses consisted primarily of marketing, advertising and facilities
expenses. During the current quarter four sales people dedicated to the Year
2000 business were hired which will significantly increase selling expenses in
the coming quarters. Comparable Year 2000 selling, general and administrative
expenses in the quarter ended February 28, 1997 were $40,000.
Page 8
<PAGE>
Other Income
The change in other income occurred primarily due to a net gains of $50,000 in
marketable securities in the fiscal 1997 quarter versus gains of $6,000 in the
quarter ended February 28, 1998.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate increased to 44.4% in the quarter ended February
28, 1998 from 44.1% in the quarter ended February 28, 1997 due to higher state
and local income taxes.
Nine months ended February 28, 1998 compared with nine months ended February 28,

Revenues
Revenues consist primarily of revenues from contract computer programming
services. In addition, the Company's revenues for the nine months ended February
28, 1998 included revenues from its Year 2000 business which was commenced in
fiscal 1997. Revenues for the nine months ended February 28, 1998 increased
$16,515,000 or 47.5% over the comparable period in fiscal 1997.
Contract computer programming services revenues increased $11,888,000 from
$34,598,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1997 to $46,486,000 in the
nine months ended February 28, 1998. This increase resulted from an overall
increase in the number of programmers on billing with clients from approximately
425 at February 28, 1997 to approximately 450 at February 28, 1998. The rate of
revenue growth has slowed during the nine months ended February 28, 1998 due to
the discontinuance of certain projects by the Company's largest customer, as a
result of which computer programming personnel for the projects provided by the
Company were no longer required.
Revenues from the Company's Year 2000 business, which was commenced in fiscal
1997, were $4,726,000 for the nine months ended February 28, 1998. During the
current period the Company used its proprietary Catch/21 Software Solution on
conversion projects to remediate approximately 20,000,000 lines of code for
client software applications for a total of sixteen customers. Year 2000
revenues for the nine months ended February 28, 19987 were $45,000.
The agreements under which the Year 2000 business revenues were recognized
provide that all payments under the agreements are subject to satisfactory
conversion of the applications. Revenues include amounts billed or paid prior to
the final acceptance by the customer based upon management's belief that
acceptance is probable.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues decreased from 75.6% in the nine
months ended February 28, 1997 to 73.0% in the nine months ended February 28,
1998. This decrease is primarily attributable to the cost of sales as a
percentage of revenues in the Year 2000 business being less than the contract
computer programming business.
In the contract computer programming services business, cost of sales as a
percentage of sales increased from 75.7% in the nine months ended February 28,
1997 to 76.6% in the comparable period ended February 28, 1998. This increase is
attributable to increases in amounts paid to qualified programming professionals
outpacing the Company's ability to pass these increases on to customers due to
competitive market pressures in the industry.
The Year 2000 business incurred cost of sales of $1,808,000 or 38.3% of revenues
in the nine months ended February 28, 1998. These costs consisted primarily of
salaries of software analysts and quality assurance personnel. The Company has
increased cost of sales from the Year 2000 business due to the hiring and
training of additional personnel in anticipation of future conversion projects.
Cost of sales for the Year 2000 business in the period ended February 28, 1997
amounted to $62,000.
Research and Development
Research and development costs of $589,000 in the nine months ended February 28,
1998 represent amounts expended by the Company to further develop and enhance
its Catch/21 Software Solution. Currently, the Catch/21 Software Solution can
convert IBM mainframe COBOL , PL/1, RPG, Assembler, CA-ADS, and CA-IDEAL
applications. Additionally, several of the languages are supported in AS/400 and
DEC/VAX environments. The development expenditures are expected to continue
during calendar 1998 as the Company seeks to expand its product offerings to
enable it to convert software applications which run on additional computer
platforms and are written in other languages such as ADABASE/NATURAL,
CA-EASYTRIEVE/EASYPLUS and other fourth generation language platforms which the
Company expects to complete, subject to customer demand, during the next year.
Research and development expenses in the period ended February 28, 1997 were
$191,000.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of expenses
relating to account executives, technical recruiters, facilities costs,
management and corporate overhead. These expenses increased $2,606,000 or 40.8%
from $6,391,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1997 to $8,997,000 in the
nine months ended February 28, 1998. Selling, general and administrative
expenses related to contract computer programming services increased $1,042,000
over the prior year period to $7,123,000. The increase was primarily
attributable to additional sales commissions based on higher gross profits. In
addition, this increase resulted, to a lesser extent, from expenses relating to
the hiring of additional account executives and technical recruiting
professionals to expand the Company's client base and recruit additional
technical consultants in connection with the continuation of the Company's
planned expansion.
In the nine months ended February 28, 1998, approximately $1,873,000 in selling,
general and administrative expenses were attributable to the Year 2000 business.
These expenses consisted primarily of marketing, advertising and facilities
expenses. Comparable Year 2000 selling, general and administrative expenses in
the period ended February 28, 1997 were $92,000.
Other Income
The change in other income occurred primarily due to the sale of the Company's
customer database from its construction specification subsidiary for $77,000 in
the first quarter of fiscal 1997.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate increased to 45.1% in the nine months ended
February 28, 1998 from 44.3% in the nine months ended February 28, 1997 due to
higher state and local incomes taxes.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Changes in Financial Condition
The Company expects that cash flow generated from operations together with its
cash and marketable securities and available credit facilities will be
sufficient to provide the Company with adequate resources to meet its cash
requirements, including further acquisition of fixed assets and other
investments in the Year 2000 business.
At February 28, 1998, the Company had working capital of $13,986,000 and cash
and cash equivalents of $3,139,000 as compared to working capital of $9,884,000
and cash and cash equivalents of $2,931,000 at May 31, 1997. Working capital
increased due to the Company's net income in the nine months ended February 28,
1998 and the sale of common stock. Although there was a significant working
capital increase, cash and cash equivalents increased to a lesser extent from
May 31, 1997 to February 28, 1998 primarily due to an increase in accounts
receivable and the purchase of fixed assets.
The Company had negative net cash flow of $645,000 from operations during the
nine months ended February 28, 1998 as compared to negative net cash flow from
operations of $1,848,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1997. The rate of
negative cash flow declined in the nine months ended February 28, 1998 as
compared to the nine months ended February 28, 1997 primarily due to higher
income from operations. The Company had net income of $2,400,000, in the nine
months ended February 28, 1998. However, the Company had an increase in accounts
receivable of $3,641,000 from $10,409,000 at May 31, 1997 to $14,050,000 at
February 28, 1998. The increase in accounts receivable resulted primarily from
the increase in revenues for the period.
Cash flow used in investing activities resulted primarily from purchases of
fixed assets in the nine month period of $870,000 in fiscal 1998. This compares
with fixed asset purchases of $213,000 in fiscal 1997. The significant increase
was required for equipment to emulate client computer environments to enable
sufficient testing and quality assurance of the Catch/21 Software Solution.
Additionally, the Company invested $592,000 in marketable securities during the
period, of which $487,000 was invested in United States Treasury Bills.
Cash flow from financing activities of $2,306,400 resulted from the sale of
160,000 shares of common stock at $16 per share, less expenses, in a private
placement on January 30, 1998.
The Company's capital resource commitments at February 28, 1998 consisted of
lease obligations on its branch and corporate facilities. The Company intends to
finance these lease commitments from cash flow provided by operations, available
cash and short-term marketable securities.
Although the Company's cash and marketable securities were sufficient to enable
it to meet its cash requirements during the nine months ended February 28, 1998,
the Company may require a credit facility to finance its accounts receivable if
its accounts receivable continue to grow as a result of continued increases in
revenues. The Company has established a revolving line of credit of $5,000,000
with a major money center bank. As of February 28, 1998 there were no amounts
outstanding under this line of credit.
