Board of Directors and Stockholders
Advanced Computing Techniques, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Advanced Computing
Techniques, Inc. as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity 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 financial position of Advanced Computing Techniques,
Inc. at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1997
1. Description of Business
Advanced Computing Techniques, Inc. ("ACT" or the "Company") was incorporated in
the State of Connecticut in December 1991. ACT is a provider of information
technology services.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from time and materials contracts are recognized during the period in
which the related services are provided. Revenue from fixed price contracts are
recognized using the percentage-of-completion method. Cash payments received but
unearned as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 are recorded as deferred revenue.
Cash and Equivalents
ACT considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 1997, ACT has
substantially all of its cash in one financial institution.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost and depreciation on furniture, fixtures and
equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years. Equipment held under
capital leases and leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line
method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset.
Income Taxes
The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be taxed as an
S corporation pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code and certain state tax laws.
As such, the Company has not been subject to federal and certain state income
taxes and the stockholders have included the Company's taxable income or loss in
their individual income tax returns. Income taxes in 1997 and 1996 primarily
represent minimum state and local income taxes.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
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 in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of cash and equivalents and accounts receivable.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables are limited
due to the creditworthiness of customers comprising the Company's customer base.
Management regularly monitors the creditworthiness of its customers and believes
that it has adequately provided for any exposure to potential credit losses.
3. Fixed Assets
Fixed assets consist of the following:
December 31
1997 1996
-------------------------
Furniture and fixtures $103,518 $ 39,896
Equipment 289,389 117,681

outstanding under the line.

7. Pension Plan
The Company maintains a salary reduction profit sharing plan under the
provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan covers
substantially all full-time employees. Employees may elect to defer up to a
maximum of 15% of their pay, not to exceed $9,500 for 1997 or 1996. The employer
is obligated to make a matching contribution for the employee of 1% of the first
4% of the employees' annual contribution. Employer contributions to the Plan for
1997 and 1996 were $30,042 and $23,882, respectively.
8. Profit Sharing Plan
The Company has a profit sharing plan that covers substantially all full-time
employees. Contributions to the plan are discretionary and based on an
integrated formula, as defined. For 1997 and 1996, contributions to the Plan
charged to operations were $100,000 and $5,000, respectively.
9. Stockholders Agreements
All the stockholders are also partners in a related partnership that owns life
insurance policies on each stockholder. The agreement obligates the partnership,
upon the death or retirement of any stockholder, to purchase the deceased or
retired stockholder' stock in the Company. The purchase price is established by
a formula and is partially insured. Furthermore, the shareholders of the Company
entered into agreements in December 1997 providing for certain deferred
compensation benefits upon termination of employment, as defined.
10. Subsequent Event
Effective January 31, 1998, PRT Group Inc. purchased substantially all of the
assets of the Company for approximately $12.8 million, subject to certain
purchase price adjustments, as defined. On such date, ACT ceased to operate as a
separate entity.
