                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    
1.  Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- -------------------------------------------------------------

Description of Business
- -----------------------
Canterbury Information Technology, Inc. ("the Company") is engaged in the
business of providing information technology services which includes operating
computer software training companies, a management training company and
developing and selling software to individuals and corporations in the United
States.

Principles of Consolidation
- ---------------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
all of its subsidiaries.  All material intercompany transactions have been
eliminated.

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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes.  The ultimate outcome and actual results could differ from the
estimates and assumptions used.

Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The Company records revenue at the time services are performed or product is
shipped.

Statement of Cash Flows
- -----------------------
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash refers solely to demand
deposits with banks and cash on hand.  In 1997, the Company changed the
presentation of its statement of cash flows from the direct to the indirect
method.  Accordingly, amounts for 1997 were changed for comparative purposes.

Depreciation and Amortization
- -----------------------------
The Company depreciates and amortizes its property and equipment for financial
statement purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the property and equipment (useful lives of leases or lives of
leasehold improvements and leased property under capital leases, whichever is
shorter).  For income tax purposes, the Company uses accelerated methods
of depreciation.

Amortization of Intangible Assets
- ---------------------------------
Goodwill is being amortized over twenty-five years using the straight-line
method.

Deferred Income Taxes
- ---------------------
The Company utilizes the liability method to account for income taxes.  This
method gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with the
differences between financial accounting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities.

Earnings Per Share 
- ------------------
Effective December, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which required the Company to change
the method used to compute earnings per share ("EPS") and to restate all prior
periods presented.  The presentation of primary and fully diluted EPS has been
replaced with basic and diluted EPS, respectively.  Basic earnings per share
is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share includes
the diluted effect of securities that could be exercised or converted into
common stock.  As of May 31, 1998, there were no dilutive securities
outstanding, and as of May 31, 1997, the difference between basic and diluted
outstanding shares was deemed immaterial.  Due to the April, 1998 1 for 3
reverse stock split, some changes to reported EPS in 1997 have occurred due
to rounding.  The change is not deemed material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- -------------------------------- 
The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."  SFAS 123
provides companies with a choice to follow the provisions of SFAS 123 in
determining stock based compensation expense or to continue with the
provisions of the Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") 25, "Accounting 
for Stock Issued to Employees" and provide pro-forma disclosures of the
effects on net income and earnings per share.  The Company has elected to
continue to utilize the provisions of APB 25 to account for stock-based
compensation.  The effect of applying SFAS 123's fair value method to the
Company's stock-based awards results in net income and earnings per share
that are not materially different from amounts reported.


2.  Discontinued Operation
- --------------------------
In November, 1997 the Company decided to discontinue its vocational training
segment and closed its last two vocational schools in New Jersey and Nevada.
The results of operations has been reported as a discontinued operation and
the financial statements for the quarter ended May 31, 1997 have been restated
to reflect such.  The net assets of discontinued operations are immaterial.

The following is a summary of the results of operations of the Company's
vocational school segment.

During 1996 the Company and its primary lender, Chase Manhattan Bank,
instituted litigation, each claiming that the other party violated the terms
of the credit agreement.  As a result, the debt was declared in default.  In
February, 1997, the litigation was settled and all outstanding borrowings
with Chase were restructured and became due on December 31, 1997.  The
Company and Chase agreed that all alleged defaults under the previous
agreements were permanently waived and the Company would use its best
efforts to replace Chase during 1997.  A suitable replacement was not found
during 1997, and the Company and Chase have agreed to extend their current
banking relationship through December 31, 1998 subject to satisfactory
documentation of the terms and conditions as agreed.  The Company will
continue to use its best efforts to replace Chase prior to December, 1998.

                                 (Continued)

The Company agreed to make principal payments against the term loan throughout
1998.  The payments, which total $700,000, will be made monthly during the
year.  As of May 31, 1998, $200,000 had already been paid to Chase.  The
revolving credit facility remained at $2,774,600 at December 31,1997, with
no additional borrowings or repayments scheduled during fiscal 1998.

Interest rates on all outstanding debt will remain at the same rate as before
the restructuring.  The term loan interest rate is LIBOR plus 3% or the Bank's
prime rate plus 1/2%.  The revolving credit facility carries an interest rate
of LIBOR plus 2 1/2% or the Bank's prime rate of interest.  The Company has the
right to choose which rate is to be utilized on a periodic basis.  The 30 day
LIBOR rate at May 31, 1998 was 5.656%.  As of May 31, 1998, the Company was
in compliance with or has received a waiver on all of the debt covenants
relating to both the term loan and the revolving credit facility.

The long-term debt is secured by substantially all of the assets of the
Company.  The Company is restricted by its primary lender from paying
dividends on its common stock.

Aggregate maturities on long-term debt for the next five years, exclusive of
obligations under capital leases, are approximately $4,152,000, $0, $0, $0
and $0 respectively.

The carrying value of the long-term debt approximates its fair value. 

5.    Capital Leases
- --------------------

Capital lease obligations are certain equipment leases which expire in October,
2000.  Future payments under capitalized leases, together with the present
value, calculated at the respective leases' implicit interest rate of
approximately 10.5% to 11% at their inception, as of May 1, 1995 and May 1,
1997 are as follows:

Year ending November 30, 1998            $116,192
Year ending November 30, 1999             213,309
Year ending November 30, 2000 - 2003      131,672

 obligations under capital leases        $426,369
                                         ========
6.    Stockholders' Equity
- --------------------------

Faced with the possibility of losing its NASDAQ National Market listing
because of NASDAQ's minimum stock price listing requirements, the Company's
Board of Directors decided to reverse split its common stock on a one for
three basis.  This stock split took place on April 14, 1998.  As a result of
the reverse split, the Company's issued and outstanding common stock was
reduced from 18,199,000 shares to 6,066,000 shares, and its public float was
reduced from approximately 12,000,000 shares to approximately 4,000,000 shares.
The balance sheets at November 30, 1997 and May 31, 1998, as well as the
earnings per share calculations have been adjusted to reflect this reverse
split.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Operations
          -----------------------------------------------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Working capital at May 31, 1998 was $3,573,000.  This was an increase of
$935,000 over November 30, 1997.  Reductions in accounts payable and accrued
expenses were the primary reason for the improvement.  The Company and its
primary lender, Chase Manhattan Bank, agreed to extend their banking
relationship until December 31, 1998.  The Company has agreed to make
scheduled term debt payments totaling $700,000 in fiscal 1998.  As of May 31,
1998, $200,000 has been paid to Chase per the agreement.  The Company and
Chase have agreed that all defaults under the previous lending agreements
were permanently waived and the Company would use its best efforts to
replace Chase during 1998.

Cash flow from continuing operations for the six months ended May 31, 1998
was ($7,194), a decrease of $172,439 from the previous year.  Management
anticipated this temporary cash shortfall and believes based on the projected
results of operations, that cash flow from continuing operations will turn
positive in the third quarter of 1998 and remain positive for the balance of
the year.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Revenues
- --------
Revenues for the three months ended May 31, 1998 decreased by $400,000 (11%)
over the comparable three-month period in fiscal 1997; and for the six-month
period ended May 31, 1998, revenues were lower by $439,000 (7%). This
reduction was due to lower enrollments in public classes for the computer
training subsidiaries.  As the subsidiaries move toward providing other
technical services related to the information technology industry, this
revenue shortfall should be compensated for by increases in non-traditional
revenue streams.

Costs and Expenses
- ------------------
Costs and expenses for the three months ended May 31, 1998 increased by
$184,000 (11%) due primarily to a increase in labor and facilities costs.
The relocation of CALC/Canterbury's corporate office as well as its largest
New Jersey training center contributed significantly to this increase.  A
majority of these costs should be non-recurring in nature.

Selling expenses for the quarter ended May 31, 1998 increased by $45,000
(11%) over the same quarter in fiscal 1997.  The increase in sales at
MSI/Canterbury and subsequent commissions are the major reason for the
increase.  For the six-month period ending May 31, 1998, selling expense
increased $142,000 (17%) due to the increased sales staff at CALC/Canterbury.
The increase in personnel was planned for in late 1997.

                                 (Continued)

General and administrative costs decreased by $72,000 (7%) over the previous
year.  The reduction in the bad debt provision was the major cause for the
decease.  For the six months ended May 31, 1998, general and administrative
expenses decreased $34,000 (2%).  The net effect of the decrease in bad debt
along with the increase associated with the programming of CALC/Canterbury's 
new operational accounting system (Year 2000 Compliant) is the reason for the
reduction.

Interest income for the quarter increased $207,000 (141%) over the same period
in 1997 and for the six-month period ended May 31, 1998 interest income was
higher by $190,000 (62%).  The increase is due to the accrual of the interest
associated with the Landscape Maintenance Services (LMS) portion of the Chase
revolver loan.  This interest has yet to be collected from LMS.  No interest
income was accrued in Fiscal 1997.
