DATA SYSTEMS NETWORK CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 1996 Note 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations for the periods presented. The results of such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Data Systems Network Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiary, Unified Network Services ("UNS"). The statements also reflect the activity of the Network Services Group ("NSG") of Information Decisions Incorporated ("IDI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SofTech, Inc.("SofTech") from the acquisition date of September 3, 1996. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Note 2. Bank line of Credit As of September 30, 1996, the Company has a bank line of credit of $7.5 million bearing interest at .75% over the bank's prime rate (effective rate of 9% at September 30, 1996). The current agreement has been amended effective November 1, 1996 to, among other things, increase the maximum borrowing amount under the line of credit to $15 million and to reduce the interest rate to .25% over the bank's prime rate. The line of credit expires on February 1, 1997 and can be terminated at any time by the Company or the bank. Borrowings under the line of credit are due on demand. Borrowing limits are determined based on a collateral formula which includes 85% of qualified trade receivables less than 90 days old and 25% of eligible inventory and service parts. The line is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. The line of credit agreement contains certain covenants requiring the Company's receivables to be genuine and free of all other encumbrances and requiring the Company's inventory financed under the term agreement to be kept at designated locations and free from all other encumbrances. The inventory covenants are restricted to apply solely to the inventory financed through this agreement, exclusive of any and all inventories financed under the IBM Credit Corporation Agreement (see Note 4). Note 3. Acquisitions On February 22, 1996, the Company purchased 70% (7,000 shares) of UNS for $7,000. The purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market value. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired amounted to $999,078, which is being accounted for as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years using a straight-line method. Operating results of these acquired operations are included in the financial statements from the date of purchase. Effective September 3, 1996, the Company purchased the operations of NSG, including certain assets and assumed certain liabilities from SofTech. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. In exchange for certain assets and liabilities, SofTech received $890,000 in cash and 540,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at approximately $2,835,000. The purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market value. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired amounted to $3,539,000, which is being accounted for as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years using a straight-line method. The allocations of the purchase prices have been made on a preliminary basis and are subject to change upon final determination regarding the fair market values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The following unaudited pro forma income statements were prepared to illustrate the effects of the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 1995. The pro forma adjustments are based on the available information and upon certain assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. The pro forma income statements do not purport to represent what the Company's income statements would actually have been if such transaction in fact had occurred on January 1, 1995, or to project the Company's income statements for any future period. The information below reflects an adjustment for the amortization of goodwill based upon the new cost basis of the Company, as well as an adjustment to the income tax provision to reflect the tax effect of the aforementioned adjustment. The 1996 amounts exclude the extraordinary items for purposes of comparability.

Credit Line On July 28, 1995, the Company entered into a secured financing agreement with IBM Credit Corporation. For the period ending September 30, 1996, the current agreement extends a maximum of $1,250,000 in secured funds to be used exclusively for the acquisition of inventory for resale limited to those products manufactured by Apple, Compaq, Hewlett Packard, IBM and Lexmark. Use of this credit line is at the Company's option. To secure payment of all current debt under this agreement, IBM Credit Corporation was granted a first security interest in the Company's inventory financed under this agreement equal to the amount of the outstanding debt. This agreement allows for interest-free financing if paid within thirty days of invoicing. The agreement also provides for a variable discount option, ranging from .5% to 1.0% off each invoice ,if paid within fifteen days. This agreement can be terminated at any time by the Company or the lender. The terms and conditions of this financing agreement can be changed at the discretion of IBM Credit Corporation. Note 5. Extraordinary Items During the course of 1995 and 1996, the Company has negotiated with certain creditors to accelerate the payment of unsecured debt providing the creditors agree to certain terms, such as forgiveness of a portion of unsecured debt and contingent liabilities and of sale the fully paid warrants. Under the terms of the 1992 Plan of Reorganization, the unsecured creditors were granted fully paid warrants of 170,000 shares of the Company's authorized common stock and contingent payments of up to a total of $650,000. This contingent liabiity was not previously recorded as the amount could not be reasonably estimated. As a result of these extensive negotiations, the Company has purchased approximately 110,000 warrants in 1995 and 10,400 in 1996. In addition, the Company requested the authority to settle claims and obtained final approval of the bankruptcy court to enter into a settlement agreement whereby aggregate payments of approximately $114,000 will be made subsequent to September 1996 to conclude the reorganization plan. The extraordinary gain of approximately $75,000 represents the purchase of the 10,400 warrants and the extinguishment of the related debt. The extraordinary loss of approximately $165,000 represents the bankruptcy contingent liability payments to be made and the related professional fees incurred to conclude the bankruptcy reorganization plan. Item 2-Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included under Item 1. Financial Statements. Results of Operations Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 1995. Revenues. Total revenues decreased 23% to $6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from $8.3 million for the same period in 1995. This decrease is primarily attributable the Company's sales and sales management personnel decision to shift their attention away from the current quarter's activity to address the needs of both the NSG acquisition due diligence process and the resulting personnel training and orientation programs. The Company believes that its decision to allocate considerable resources to the process of integrating the NSG employees into the Company's operations is an important key to the Company's long term success and retention of these employees. To a lesser degree, this decrease was a result of a net product sales decrease of 40% resulting primarily from the shifting of Company sales and support resources to UNS in an effort to support initial third quarter sales expectations. The initial forecast for UNS included the delivery and installation of certain large projects that were either rescheduled for implementation in the fourth quarter, or canceled due to customer budgetary constraints. Product returns and allowances decreased to $199,000 or 3% of total revenues in the three month period in 1996 from $223,000 or 3% of total revenues for the same period in 1995. Gross profits for the period increased to $1,060,000, or 17% of total revenue, from $983,000, or 12% of total revenue, for the same period in 1995. This increase is attributable to a 190% increase in service revenue in 1996 over the same period in 1995. Service revenue increased $898,000 to 14% of total revenues in the three month period ended September 30, 1996 from 6% in the corresponding period of 1995. A majority of the service revenue increase resulted from the recognition of network installations, training and hardware maintenance income generated from the service base acquired with NSG. Cost of Revenues. The total cost of revenues decreased to 83% of total revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 from 93% for the same period in 1995. The cost of service revenue decreased to 59% of service revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 from 63% for the same period in 1995, due to the significant increase in lower cost maintenance revenues which typically represent a more profitable revenue stream than time and materials revenues. The cost of product sales decreased significantly to 90% of net sales for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to 95% for the same period in 1995. This decrease is primarily attributable to the increased sales mix of advanced technology products which typically result in higher gross margins than the sale of widely distributed commodity products. This shift in mix is consistent with the Company's overall marketing plan to concentrate its efforts on leading edge technology, such as network management, remote network monitoring and imaging. Operating Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $694,000 to 24% of total revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to 10% of total revenues for the same period in 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to costs associated with the Company's decision to expand its geographic presence into New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Connecticut. The Company's expansion plan targets geographic areas where significant government and institutional contract opportunities exist. An aggressive expansion posture and its related effect on operating expenses are expected to continue through the fourth quarter. The foregoing statement is a "forward looking statement" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the continuance of favorable economic and business conditions, the availability of adequate financing from the Company's cash resources and bank line of credit, and the ability of the Company to continue to identify and recruit sales and service professionals within its future geographic target areas. Other Income(Expense). Other income for the quarter increased by $210,000 resulting primarily from non-recurring services rendered by UNS not related to the Company's continuing operations and to a lesser degree to the Company's recognition of an accrual established in 1991 to satisfy the unsecured creditors' debt liability. Both interest income and interest expense remained relatively stable for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. Extraordinary Gain and Loss. The extraordinary gain of approximately $75,000 represents the purchase of the 10,400 warrants and the extinguishment of the related debt. The extraordinary loss of about $160,000 represents the bankruptcy contingent payments to be made and the related professional fees to conclude the bankruptcy reorganization plan. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995. Revenues. Total revenues decreased 21% to $17.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 from $22 million for the same period in 1995. This decrease was attributable to a 29% decrease in product sales, offset by an 82% increase in service revenue. These results illustrate the continued success of the Company's ongoing effort to increase service revenues in both dollars and as a percentage of total sales. Returns and allowances remained stable at 3% percentage of total revenue for the nine months period in ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. Product returns decreased in dollars to $383,000 for the nine months ended September 30,1996 from $649,000 for the same period in 1995. Gross profit increased to 18% of total revenue from 11% for the same period in 1995, primarily attributable to the increase in service revenues as a percentage of total sales. Service revenue increased by 82% to 16% of total revenue in the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 from 7% in the corresponding period of 1995. The majority of the service revenue percentage increase resulted from the second quarter sale of project design and installation service generated from both DSNC and UNS activities, and to a lessor degree to the third quarter maintenance, implementation and training revenues contributed by the newly acquired NSG operation. The Company will continue to focus on increasing service revenue in dollars and percentage of sales as part of its 1996 product mix strategy. The Company expects the NSG division to materially contribute to that strategy through increased state contract service revenue. Cost of Revenue. The cost of revenue decreased to 82% of total revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 from 89% for the same period in 1995. The cost of service revenue decreased to 48% of service revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 from 59% for the same period in 1995. This significant decrease is primarily attributable to the successful marketing of maintenance contract revenue which provides the Company with more profitable recurring service revenue than time and material services. The cost of product sales decreased to 89% of net sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to 91% for the same period in 1995 primarily due to the Company's shift to an increased mix of higher margin advanced technology products. Operating Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $1,098,000 to 19% of total revenue for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 compared to 10% of total revenue for the same period in 1995. This increase is attributable to a variety of factors in order of materiality, including the addition of the NSG staff, the increased costs associated with the UNS staff recruitment and development, the increased travel expenses required to service a geographically expanding customer base, and to a lesser degree, to the third quarter sales office expansion activities. Other Income(Expense). Interest expense increased for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 resulting primarily from notes payable interest paid and an in the Company's business financing line of credit. Interest income increased by $82,000 as a result of increased earnings from the investment of the remaining proceeds of the 1994 public offering and interest earned on notes receivable accounts. Other income for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 increased by $304,000 resulting primarily from non-recurring services rendered by UNS not related to the Company's continuing operations, and to a lesser degree to the Company's recognition of accruals for income taxes and unsecured creditors' debt liability established in prior years. Financial Condition The Company finances its business primarily through funds generated internally through operations, trade credit, and advances under its $7.5 million line of credit with NBD Bank N.A. (the "Bank"). The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets, bears interest at .75% over the Bank's prime rate (effective rate of 9% at September 30, 1996) and is due on demand of the Bank. The current agreement has been amended effective November 1, 1996 to, among other things, increase the maximum borrowing amount under the line of credit to $15 million and to reduce the interest rate to .25% over the bank's prime rate. The line of credit expires on February 1, 1997 and can be terminated at any time by the Company or the bank. Borrowing under the line of credit is limited by a formula determined from time to time by the Bank and currently is calculated as the sum of 85% of qualified receivables less than 90 days old and 25% of eligible inventory and service parts as designated by the bank. The formula permitted total borrowings of up to $5,540,000 as of September 30, 1996 with $5,360,000 outstanding. The Company believes that the current permitted borrowing formula which increases borrowing availability as the Company's sales growth generates new accounts receivable, will support the continued growth of the Company. The foregoing statement is a "forward looking statement" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the continuance of favorable economic and business conditions and the Company's future rate of sales growth. In addition to the bank line of credit, the Company is utilizing a secured financing agreement with IBM Credit Corporation which offers thirty day interest free financing on certain products (Note 4) purchased by the Company for resale. As of September 30, 1996, IBM Credit Corporation purchase transactions accounted for $270,000 of the total accounts payable balance. As of September 30, 1996, net cash flows decreased by $700,000 resulting from an increase in both the bank line of credit and accounts payable, materially offset by an increase in inventories and accounts receivable. To a lesser degree, the decrease in working capital can be attributed to a $704,000 increase in deferred maintenance revenue. Working capital as of September 30, 1996 was ($1,601,000). The Company has recorded the creditor committee settlement of approximately $114,000 as a payable at September 30, 1996. This amount represents the negotiation of the potential contingent payment due in 1997 of $650,000. The amounts will be paid to the creditors and the related warrants will be issued subsequent to September 30, 1996. On September 3, 1996 the Company acquired the operations of the Network Systems Group (NSG) of Information Decisions Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of SofTech. In exchange for certain assets and liabilities, SofTech, Incorporated received $890,000 and 540,000 shares of Company common stock valued at approximately $2,835,000. The purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market value. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired amounted to $3,539,000, which is being accounted for as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years using a straight-line method. At the time of the acquisition, NSG had approximately 100 employees with operations in Michigan, North Carolina, and New York. On February 22, 1996, the Company purchased 70% (or 7,000 shares) of common stock of Unified Network Services, Inc. for $7,000 in cash and assumed approximately $1,200,000 in liabilities. The acquisition of UNS was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market value. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired amounted to approximately $999,078, which is being accounted for as goodwill and is being amortized over 20 years using a straight-line method. This allocation was based on preliminary estimates and may be revised at a later date. The Company believes that the combination of present cash balances, future operating cash flows, and credit facilities will be adequate to fund the Company's internal growth and current short and long term cash flow requirements. The payment of the unsecured creditors' claims, pursuant to the recent settlement agreement, is expected to have minimal effect on the Company's cash flows. Future trends for revenue and profitability continue to be difficult to predict. The foregoing statement is a "forward looking statement" within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the continuance of favorable economic and business conditions, the financial requirements of the newly acquired operations and offices, and the success of the Company's strategy to shift its revenue mix away from product sales towards service revenue and thereby improve operating margin.
