Revenues
- --------

Revenues consist primarily of revenues from computer programming consulting
services. In addition, the Company's revenues included revenues from its Year
2000 business which commenced in fiscal 1997. Revenues for the quarter ended
February 29, 2000 decreased $2,385,000 or 11.5% from the comparable period in
fiscal 1999. For the current quarter 97.7% of revenues were derived from
computer programming consulting services and 2.3% from Year 2000 services, as
compared with 89.8% and 10.2% respectively in fiscal 1999.

Computer programming consulting services revenues decreased $1,196,000 or 6.2%
from $19,208,000 in the quarter ended February 28, 1999 to $18,012,000 in the
quarter ended February 29, 2000. This decrease resulted from an overall decrease
in the average number of programmers on billing with clients from approximately
532 for the quarter ended February 28, 1999 to approximately 472 for the current
quarter. The Company believes that this decrease was attributable to a delay in
new IT projects due to lingering Year 2000 effects. It was also attributable to
a reorganization at a major customer which has also delayed the start of new IT
projects with this customer. The Company continues to believe that the
consulting business with strengthen in the current calender year, although it
has not occurred as early in the year as anticipated.

Revenues from the Company's Catch/21 Year 2000 compliance services, were
$421,000 for the current quarter versus $1,610,000 in the fiscal 1999 third
quarter. The Company's Year 2000 revenues have decreased significantly and the
Company expects these revenues will further decline and are not likely to
represent a material portion of the Companies revenues in the future.

Cost of Sales
- -------------

Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues increased from 74.3% in the quarter
ended February 28, 1999 to 76.3% in the quarter ended February 29, 2000. This
increase is primarily attributable to the decrease in Year 2000 revenues for
which cost of sales as a percentage of revenues is less than the computer
programming consulting services business.

In the computer programming consulting services business, cost of sales as a
percentage of sales decreased from 79.0% in the quarter ended February 28, 1999
to 77.7% in the quarter ended February 29, 2000. This decrease is attributable
to an increase in the number of subcontractors used in the consulting business.
The services of these individuals are not directly subject to payroll taxes paid
by the Company.

The Year 2000 business incurred cost of sales of $62,000 in the quarter ended
February 29, 2000 versus $282,000 in the prior year quarter. The Company
significantly reduced the number of employees in its Year 2000 Services during
fiscal 1999 and is currently providing such services through contractual
arrangements with certain former employees.

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 decreased $375,000 or 11.3%
from $3,312,000 in the quarter ended February 28, 1999 to $2,937,000 in the
quarter ended February 29, 2000. This decrease was primarily attributable to the
reduction in Year 2000 services. Selling, general and administrative expenses
related to computer programming consulting services increased $167,000 over the
prior year period to $2,912,000. This increase was primarily attributable to
expenses relating to the hiring of additional account executives and technical
recruiting professionals to broaden 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 29, 2000, approximately $26,000 in selling,
general and administrative expenses were attributable to Year 2000 services.
These expenses consist primarily of management, and facilities expenses. Such
expenses significantly decreased from fiscal 1999. Comparable Year 2000 selling,
general and administrative expenses in the quarter ended February 28, 1999 were
$567,000.

Research and Development
- ------------------------

Research and development costs of $49,000 in the quarter ended February 28, 1999
represent amounts expended by the Company to expand Catch/21, the Company's Year
2000 compliance solution product offerings including XRAY/2000 which stands for
Examination, Repair, and Audit for Year 2000 Compliance, and various testing
utilities. There were no research and development expenses in the quarter ended
February 29, 2000.

Income from Operations
- ----------------------

In the quarter ended February 29, 2000, the computer programming consulting
service business contributed $1,106,000 or 76.9% of the income from operations,
while the Year 2000 business contributed the remaining $332,000 or 23.1%. In the
prior year quarter, the computer programming consulting service business
contributed $1,285,000 or 64.3% of income from operations and the Year 2000
business $712,000 or 35.7%. The Company is not rendering any further Year 2000
services and it does not expect Year 2000 services to materially contribute to
income from operations for the balance of its 2000 fiscal year or beyond. The
Company believes that growth in contract computer programming services will,
over time, offset the loss of income from operations from Year 2000 services.

Other Income
- ------------

Other income resulted primarily from interest and dividend income. Other income
increased by $26,000 to $127,000 primarily due to gains from sales of fixed
assets.

Income Taxes
- ------------

The effective income tax rate increased to 43.6% in the quarter ended February
29, 2000 from 42.9% in the quarter ended February 28, 1999 because of a higher
percentage of non-deductible expenses.

Revenues
- --------

Revenues consist primarily of revenues from computer programming consulting
services. In addition, the Company's revenues included revenues from its Year
2000 business which commenced in fiscal 1997. Revenues for the nine months ended
February 29, 2000 decreased $2,898,000 or 4.6% over the comparable period in
fiscal 1999. For the current nine months 97.1% of revenues were derived from
computer programming consulting services and 2.9% from Year 2000 services, as
compared with 89.2% and 10.8% respectively in fiscal 1999.

Computer programming consulting services revenues increased $1,498,000 or 2.6%
from $56,803,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1999 to $58,301,000 in
the nine months ended February 29, 2000. This increase resulted from an overall
increase in the average number of programmers on billing with clients from an
average of 508 for the nine months ended February 28, 1999 to approximately 513
in the nine months ended at February 29, 2000. Growth in consulting services
revenues was at a slower rate than it had been in the past. The Company believes
that this slower growth was attributable to a delay in new IT projects due to
lingering Year 2000 effects. It was also attributable to a reorganization at a
major customer which has also delayed the start of new IT projects with this
customer. The Company continues to believe that the consulting business will
strengthen in the current calender year, although it has not occurred as early
in the year as anticipated.

Revenues from the Company's Catch/21 Year 2000 compliance services, were
$1,767,000 for the current nine months versus $6,163,000 in the prior year
period. The Company's Year 2000 revenues have decreased significantly and the
Company expects these revenues will further decline and are not likely to
represent a material portion of the Companies revenues in the future.

Cost of Sales
- -------------

Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues increased from 73.7% in the nine
months ended February 28, 1999 to 76.3% in the nine months ended February 29,
2000. This increase is primarily attributable to the decrease in Year 2000
revenues for which cost of sales as a percentage of revenues is less than the
computer programming consulting services business.

In the computer programming consulting services business, cost of sales as a
percentage of sales remained the same at 77.7% in the nine months ended February
28, 1999 and the nine months ended February 29, 2000.

The Year 2000 business incurred cost of sales of $563,000 in the nine months
ended February 29, 2000 versus $2,270,000 in the prior year period. The Company
significantly reduced the number of employees in its Year 2000 Services during
fiscal 1999 and is currently providing such services through contractual
arrangements with certain former employees.

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 decreased $1,358,000 or 13.3%
from $10,197,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1999 to $8,839,000 in the
nine months ended February 29, 2000. This decrease was primarily attributable to
the reduction in Year 2000 services. Selling, general and administrative
expenses related to computer programming consulting services increased $451,000
over the prior year period to $8,718,000. This increase was primarily
attributable to expenses relating to the hiring of additional account executives
and technical recruiting professionals to broaden 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 29, 2000, approximately $121,000 in selling,
general and administrative expenses were attributable to Year 2000 services.
These expenses consist primarily of management, and facilities expenses. Such
expenses significantly decreased from fiscal 1999. Comparable Year 2000 selling,
general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended February 28, 1999
were $1,930,000.

Research and Development
- ------------------------

Research and development costs of $278,000 in the nine months ended February 28,
1999 represent amounts expended by the Company to expand Catch/21, the Company's
Year 2000 compliance solution, product offerings including XRAY/2000 which
stands for Examination, Repair, and Audit for Year 2000 Compliance, and various
testing utilities. There were no research and development expenses in the nine
months ended February 29, 2000.

Income from Operations
- ----------------------

In the nine months ended February 29, 2000, the computer programming consulting
service business contributed $4,291,000 or 79.8% of the income from operations,
while the Year 2000 business contributed the remaining $1,083,000 or 20.2%. In
the prior year period, the computer programming consulting service business
contributed $4,397,000 or 72.3% of income from operations and the Year 2000
business $1,686,000 or 27.7%. The Company is not rendering any further Year 2000
services and it does not expect Year 2000 services to materially contribute to
income from operations for the balance of its 2000 fiscal year or beyond. The
Company believes that growth in contract computer programming services will,
over time, offset the loss of income from operations from Year 2000 services.

Other Income
- ------------

Other income resulted primarily from interest and dividend income which
increased by $62,000 to $314,000 due to higher average available investable
funds in the nine months ended February 29, 2000. Additionally, the Company also
had a net gain of $10,000 from marketable securities due to mark to market
adjustments of its equity portfolio as compared to an unrealized loss of $8,000
in the prior year period. The Company also had a gain of $24,000 from sales of
fixed assets.

Income Taxes
- ------------

The effective income tax rate decreased to 43.2% in the nine months ended
February 29, 2000 from 43.5% in the nine months ended February 28, 1999 because
of lower state and local 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 will be sufficient to provide the Company with
adequate resources to meet its cash requirements.

At February 29, 2000, the Company had working capital of $14,496,000 and cash
and cash equivalents of $979,000 as compared to working capital of $17,303,000
and cash and cash equivalents of $2,235,000 at May 31, 1999. Working capital
decreased primarily due to the Company's purchase of $6,024,000 of treasury
stock of the Company in the nine months ended February 29, 2000.

The Company had positive net cash flow of $3,955,000 from operations during the
nine months ended February 29, 2000 as compared to positive net cash flow from
operations of $5,342,000 in the nine months ended February 28, 1999. The Company
had net income of $3,251,000, in the nine months ended February 29, 2000 versus
$3,576,000 in the prior year period. The Company also had additional cash flow
as a result of the decrease in accounts receivable of $1,410,000. The decrease
in accounts receivable occurred primarily because the rate of collections
exceeded the rate of revenue growth. Depreciation and amortization decreased to
$106,000 from $714,000 in the prior year period due to the accelerated write-off
of Catch/21 Year 2000 fixed assets in the prior year. Additionally, accounts
payable and accrued expenses used cash flow of $717,000 due to the decrease in
accounts payable and accrued payroll associated with the lower number of
consultants on billing as compared to May 31, 1999 and the completion of the
Company's Catch/21Year 2000 projects.

Cash flow provided by investing activities resulted primarily from the maturity
of United States Treasury Bills in the current period.

Cash flow used in financing activities of $6,024,000 in the nine months ended
February 29, 2000 resulted from the repurchase of 757,000 shares of common stock
of the Company. As of February 29, 2000, the Company has repurchased a total of
1,333,000 shares at an average price of $7.66 or a total cost of $10,218,000.
The Company has completed the initial buy back authorization of 600,000 shares.
The Company's board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to an
additional 500,000 shares of its common stock in June 1999 and another 500,000
in January 2000. No time limit has been placed on the duration of the share
repurchases. Subject to applicable securities laws, such purchases will be at
times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate and may be discontinued at
any time. The Company has no obligation or commitment to repurchase all or any
portion of the shares covered by the authorization.

The Company's capital resource commitments at February 29, 2000 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.

The Company's cash and marketable securities were sufficient to enable it to
meet its cash requirements during the nine months ended February 29, 2000. The
Company has available a revolving line of credit of $5,000,000 with a major
money center bank, which the Company believes provides sufficient financing if
the need arose. As of February 29, 2000 no amounts were outstanding under this
line of credit.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
        ---------------------------------------------------------

The Company's earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes
in interest rates primarily from its investment of available cash balances in
money market funds and marketable securities. Under its current policies, the
Company does not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to
interest rate changes.
