EXHIBIT 1 - Independent Auditors' Consent 21 2 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Trustees Butler Service Group, Inc. 401(k) Plan Montvale, New Jersey We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Butler Service Group, Inc. 401(k) Plan ("the Plan") as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan'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 net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1997 and (2) reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 1997 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic 1997 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP - ------------------------- Parsippany, New Jersey June 26, 1998 3 BUTLER SERVICE GROUP, INC. 401(K) PLAN STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1997 1996 ---- ---- ASSETS: Investments at fair value / face value (Note C) $33,406,373 $24,769,775 Contributions receivable, employees 599,772 562,881 Contributions receivable, employer 355,694 878,691 Accrued interest 111,114 92,646 ------------------- ------------------- Total Assets 34,472,953 26,303,993 ------------------- ------------------- LIABILITIES: Accrued expenses 16,663 23,238 ------------------- ------------------- Total Liabilities 16,663 23,238 ------------------- ------------------- NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS $34,456,290 $26,280,755 =================== =================== See notes to financial statements. 4 BUTLER SERVICE GROUP, INC. 401(K) PLAN STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADDITIONS TO NET ASSETS ATTRIBUTED TO: Contributions from employees $ 9,122,426 Contributions from employer 1,401,568 Investment income 802,313 Net realized and unrealized appreciation in fair value of investments 4,791,438 ----------------- Total Additions 16,117,745 ----------------- DEDUCTIONS FROM NET ASSETS ATTRIBUTED TO: Distributions to participants 7,575,208 Investment and administrative management fees 367,002 ----------------- Total Deductions 7,942,210 ----------------- NET INCREASE IN NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS 8,175,535 NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS, BEGINNING OF YEAR 26,280,755 ----------------- NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS, END OF YEAR $ 34,456,290 ================= See notes to financial statements. 5 BUTLER SERVICE GROUP, INC. 401(K) PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and are presented in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). Certificates of deposit are stated at face value. US Government obligations and equity investments are stated at fair value as determined by quoted market prices. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. B. PLAN DESCRIPTION The following description provides general information, refer to the plan document for a more detailed description. On July 1, 1990, Butler Service Group, Inc. ("the Company") established a 401(K) Plan which was adopted by its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The 401(K) Plan is a continuation of the Butler Service Group, Inc. Investment Savings Plan and is designed to provide an incentive for employees of the Company to save regularly through payroll deductions and possible matching contributions by the Company. Effective January 1, 1992, all employees were eligible to participate in the Butler Service Group, Inc. 401(K) Plan. There are seven investment funds offered under the 401(K) Plan - the Fixed Income Fund, which invests primarily in FDIC insured certificates of deposit and money market funds, the Small to Mid-Cap Equity Fund, which invests in a diversified common stock portfolio of representative industries and corporations, primarily small to mid-capitalization in size, the Mid to Large- Cap Equity Fund, which invests in a diversified common stock portfolio of growth companies, primarily large and medium capitalization, the Enhanced Large-Cap Index Fund, which maintains industry and sector weightings similar to the S&P 500 Index, but seeks to enhance returns with fewer, but stronger stocks within the various sectors, the Butler International ("BI") Stock Fund which is a qualified employer security under ERISA, the Balanced Fund, which invests 60 to 65% in equities and 35 to 40% in government bonds and cash equivalents, and the International Fund which generally invests in securities of foreign issuers located in Europe, the Pacific Rim, Canada and Central and South America. A participant in the 401(K) Plan has the choice of saving on a before-tax basis, by payroll deduction, any amount from 1% to 20% (in whole percentages) of total payroll each payroll period, an "elective deferral contribution." By law, the elective deferral contribution, per participant, under this Plan and all similar plans is limited during any calendar year. In addition, the elective deferral contribution for a highly compensated employee (an employee earning over $80,000 for 1997), during the year relative to the elective deferral contributions of other participants of the Plan could exceed the amount permitted by law. Should this occur, the elective deferral contributions of the highly compensated employees may be reduced during the Plan year to the extent necessary to satisfy the legal limitation or any excess deferral contributions may be recharacterized or refunded after the end of the Plan year. Refunds to highly compensated employees for the Plan years 1997 and 1996 were $293,132 and $1,061,532, respectively. A participant may allocate a specified percentage of the contribution in any or all of the seven funds in multiples of 10%. The Company is not required to make any contributions to the Plan, but the Company may decide, at its sole discretion, to make a matching contribution for a Plan year. For any Plan year that the Company decides to make a matching or partial contribution, it will deposit in the BI Stock Fund an amount which will be allocated in proportion to the elective deferral contributions made by the Plan participants for that Plan year. In 1997 and 1996 the Company made contributions of $1,073,892 and $878,691, respectively, to the Plan in accordance with a customer contract, which was funded by the customer. In 1997, the Company made matching contributions of approximately $328,000. 6 Each participant is permitted to change the elective deferral contribution rate by completing the Change in Status Form and filing it with the Plan's Administrative Committee. The elective deferral contribution rate is adjusted after the Committee receives and processes the Change in Status Form. A participant may fully discontinue the elective deferral contribution as of the first day of any month by written notice to the Plan's Administrative Committee at least fifteen days before the date on which the discontinuance is to take effect. A discontinuance of the elective deferral contribution is only permitted once during any Plan year and will automatically require the discontinuance of any Company matching contributions to the Matching Contribution Account. The elective deferral contribution may be resumed as of any January, April, July, or October 1 by written notice to the Committee at least fifteen days before a participant intends for the contributions to be resumed. Participants may withdraw funds while employed only from accounts in which they are fully vested after attaining age 59 1/2. Prior to attaining age 59 1/2 a withdrawal may be made for financial hardship. Only one withdrawal may be requested during any Plan year for reasons other than financial hardship. The minimum amount available for a withdrawal is $500. If the participant has an outstanding loan, the amount of funds available for withdrawal may be limited. Withdrawals may be made as of any January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 from any of the funds in which the participant's accounts are invested. A participant will have a 100% vested interest in all accounts upon retirement at or after age 65, in the event of a permanent disability or in the event of death prior to termination of employment. Upon termination of employment, the value of the vested accounts will be paid in a lump sum. After completing three years of service with the Company, a participant is entitled to the full value of the Matching Contribution Account, if any. Participants may borrow up to 50% of the vested portion of their account balance, subject to a maximum of $50,000. Only one loan will be granted at a time and must be repaid in full before another loan can be requested. The minimum loan amount is $1,000. Loans are subject to an interest rate based on the rate charged, as of the date the loan is granted, by the Company's principal banking institution for loans granted under similar circumstances. Loans must be repaid within such period as agreed to by the participant and the Plan's administrative committee, up to a maximum of five years. However, if the loan is made for the purchase or construction of the participants principal place of residence, the repayment period may be longer than five years. Repayments will normally be made through payroll deductions. Although the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, in the event the Plan is terminated, all participants will be 100% vested in all their accounts and benefits will be payable strictly under the terms of the Plan. Benefits under defined contribution plans of the 401(K) type are not insured by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. 7 C.

BENEFITS PAYABLE The amounts payable to the Plan participants who have terminated or withdrawn from the plan were $1,273,758 and $562,916 at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. E. TAX STATUS The Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Plan is a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code with an associated trust exempt from tax under Section 501(a). The most recent favorable letter of determination on the qualified status of the Plan was issued by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") on April 22, 1996. The Plan sponsor and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan as currently designed and operated is in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, there is no provision for income taxes in the financial statements. F. ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN ASSETS Through June 1998, contributions were held and managed by PaineWebber, Inc. ("the trustee"), which invests cash received, interest and dividend income and makes distributions to participants. The trustee also administers the payment of interest and principal on the participant loans. Effective June 1998, the Plan trustee was changed to the Prudential Bank and Trust Company. Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or employees of the Company. No such officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan. Certain plan administration expenses are borne by the Plan. 10 G. STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS BY FUND (in thousands) Mid to Small to December 31, 1997 Fixed Balanced Lg.
