1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. The balance sheet at September 30, 2001 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of September 30, 2001 and 2000 and for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2001, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form

10-K for the year ended September 30, 2001 (File No. 1–12997) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 21, 2001.

2. Revenue Recognition

During fiscal 2001, the Company changed its method of accounting for revenue recognition in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. Effective October 1, 2000, the Company recorded the cumulative effect of the accounting change resulting in a charge to income of $3,856 (net of an income tax benefit of $2,735). As reported in the Company’s fiscal 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the quarterly information originally reported in fiscal 2001 Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q was restated for the change in accounting.

3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, (“FAS 142”), effective October 1, 2001. Under FAS 142, goodwill is no longer amortized but reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if certain indicators arise.

Had the Company been accounting for its goodwill under FAS 142 for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2001, the Company’s net income and earnings per share would have been as follows:

4

Intangible assets are primarily comprised of non-competition agreements and customer contracts and are amortized using the straight-line method over a period of two to five years. The accumulated amortization related to intangible assets at September 30, 2001 was $2,256 and at June 30, 2002 was $2,949. The estimated amortization expense for the years ending September 30, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 is $863, $663, $602 and $547, respectively.

4. Business Combinations

In fiscal 2001 and 2002, the Company acquired the businesses described below in business combinations accounted for as purchases. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of each acquired business since the date of acquisition.

On May 11, 2001, the Company acquired Opportunity America, LLC for $780. In conjunction with the purchase, the Company recorded goodwill of $593 and intangible assets of $115, which has been assigned to the Human Services Group business segment. Opportunity America, LLC provides program management and consulting services to the private sector and to federal, state and local government and human services agencies.

On February 1, 2002, the Company acquired Collins Consulting Group, Inc. for $4,100. In conjunction with the purchase, the Company recorded goodwill of $4,100, which has been assigned to the Systems Group business segment. Collins Consulting Group, Inc. provides information security solutions, information technology, and management consulting. The primary reason for acquiring Collins Consulting Group, Inc. was to enhance the Company’s new business opportunities in the security solutions technologies markets.

On May 1, 2002, the Company acquired Leonie Green & Associates (“LGA”) for $10,000. Per the terms of the agreement, additional consideration may be paid based on LGA achieving certain performance objectives in fiscal 2003 through 2005. Additionally, the terms of the agreement provide for additional consideration of up to $3,000 based on achieving certain revenue targets during the one-year period ending April 30, 2004. In conjunction with the purchase, the Company recorded goodwill of $7,500 and intangible assets, primarily non-competition agreements and customer contracts, of $2,500, which have been assigned to the Human Services Group business segment. LGA provides a wide range of workforce services in the five states in Australia. The primary reason for acquiring LGA was to expand the Company’s presence and services to international markets.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. Management does not expect the ultimate outcome of the legal proceedings to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements or its business operations.

6. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the components of basic and diluted earnings per share:

7. Stock Repurchase Program

In May 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to $30,000 of the Company’s common stock. Also, in June 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the use of option exercise proceeds for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2002, the Company repurchased 796,269 shares. At June 30, 2002, $11,874 remained available for future stock repurchases under the program. In July 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to an additional $30,000 of the Company’s common stock.

8. Restricted Stock Units

In May 2002, the Company issued 170,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to certain executive officers and employees under its 1997 Equity Incentive Plan. The RSUs will vest in full upon the sixth anniversary of the date of grant, provided, however, that the vesting will accelerate if the Company meets certain earnings targets determined by the Board of Directors as set forth in the RSUs. The RSUs expire ten years after the date of grant. Compensation expense recognized related to these RSUs for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2002 was $85.

9.  Segment Information

Since fiscal 2001, the Company has reorganized its business into four reportable operating segments in order to better focus and manage its healthcare outsourcing work, which had been part of the Government Operations Group. Accordingly, prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect current period presentation of segment information.

The following table provides certain financial information for each of the Company’s business segments:

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

Business Overview

We are a leading provider of program management, consulting services and systems solutions primarily to government agencies. Since our inception, we have been at the forefront of innovation in meeting our mission of “Helping Government Serve the People^®.” We use our expertise, experience and advanced information technology to make government operations more efficient while improving the quality of services provided to program beneficiaries. We operate primarily in the United States and we have had contracts with government agencies in all 50 states, 49 of the 50 largest cities and 27 of the 30 largest counties. We have been profitable every year since we were founded in 1975. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, we had revenue of $487.3 million and income, before the cumulative effect of an accounting change, of $40.1 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, we had revenue of $384.6 million and net income of $29.4 million.

Business Combinations and Acquisitions

As part of our growth strategy, we intend to continue to selectively identify and pursue complementary businesses to expand our geographic reach and the breadth and depth of our services and to enhance our customer base. On May 11, 2001, we acquired Opportunity America, LLC for $0.8 million. In conjunction with the purchase, we recorded goodwill and other intangible assets of $0.7 million, which has been assigned to the Human Services Group business segment. On February 1, 2002, we acquired Collins Consulting Group, Inc. for $4.1 million. In conjunction with the purchase, we recorded goodwill of $4.1 million, which has been assigned to the Systems Group business segment. On May 1, 2002, we acquired Leonie Green & Associates (“LGA”), located in Queensland, Australia for cash consideration of $10.0 million. Additional consideration may be paid based on LGA achieving certain future revenue and performance objectives. In conjunction with the purchase, we recorded $7.5 million of goodwill and $2.5 million of intangible assets, which has been assigned to the Human Services Group business segment.

Results of Operations – Consolidated

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected statements of income data.

8

Our consolidated revenue increased 1.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. Excluding revenue related to acquisitions, we had an overall decline in revenue of 0.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001. Our consolidated revenue increased 6.8% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. Excluding revenue related to acquisitions, our overall growth in revenue was 5.3% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2001.

Our gross margin was 31.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 31.0% for the same period in the 2001 fiscal year, and 30.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to 30.7% the nine months ended June 30, 2001.  Gross margin increased 30 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001 and declined 10 basis points for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2001.

For the three months ended June 30, 2002, our selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $23.7 million, up 21.2% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2001. For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, our SG&A was $69.8 million, up 16.9% compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2001.

Our provision for income tax for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2002 was 40.5% of income before income taxes as compared to 41.5% for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2001. These decreases were due to differences in the amounts of certain expense items and some recently implemented tax reduction strategies.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was $11.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared with net income of $11.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 was $29.4 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to net income of $24.1 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. Fiscal 2001 net income and earnings per share included the cumulative effect of an accounting change of $3.9 million. Also, in fiscal 2002, we adopted FAS 142, which eliminated goodwill amortization, which amounted to $0.7 million and $2.1 million for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

Consulting Group

Revenue of our Consulting Group decreased 15.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001, revenue of our Consulting Group decreased 7.1%. These declines were primarily due to delays in the revenue cycle of our Revenue Services practice area and a reduction in our IT consulting practice as government procurement of large system projects has weakened. Gross margin decreased to 44.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 48.7% for the same period in 2001. This decrease was primarily due to reduced revenue of the higher margin Revenue Services practice area. Gross margin increased to 46.2% for the

9

nine months ended June 30, 2002 from 44.6% for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily due to improved margins on certain contracts within the Revenue Services and Education practice areas during the first six months of fiscal 2002.

Health Management Services Group

Revenue of our Health Management Services Group increased 15.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, revenue of our Health Management Services Group increased 20.7% compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. These increases were due to add-on work and volume expansions within existing contracts and additional new contracts. Gross margin increased to 19.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 17.6% for the same period in fiscal 2001. This increase was due primarily to an increased margin realized on a new contract. Gross margin decreased to 16.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from 18.7% for the same period in fiscal 2001. This decrease was due primarily to unanticipated costs and a revenue shortfall on a certain project during the March 2002 quarter, in which the Group experienced performance problems offset by the increased margin on the new contract discussed above. We recorded a loss on this project of approximately $3.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2002. During the three months ended June 30, 2002, this project operated substantially at breakeven with a loss of $0.2 million.

Human Services Group

Revenue of our Human Services Group increased 8.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. This increase was principally due to $2.8 million of revenue from an entity acquired in May 2002. Revenue of our Human Services Group increased 9.8% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. This increase was due to revenue from new contracts won by the Group and revenue totaling $4.2 million from entities acquired in May 2001 and May 2002. Gross margins increased to 24.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 21.1% for the same period in fiscal 2001 and to 21.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from 21.2% for the same period in fiscal 2001. These increases were due primarily to a higher margin in the three months ended June 30, 2002 from the entity acquired in May 2002.

10

Systems Group

Revenue of our Systems Group increased 0.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. Revenue of our Systems Group increased 5.1% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in fiscal 2001. These increases were due to revenue of $1.2 million from an entity acquired in February 2002, plus increased contract revenue of $1.5 million from new contracts won by certain divisions within the Group. Gross margin increased to 46.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 36.4% for the same period in fiscal 2001 and to 48.4% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from 41.5% for the same period in fiscal 2001. These increases were primarily due to increased software license revenue, which carries higher gross margins.

Selling, general & administrative and other (income) expenses

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) consists of management, marketing and administration costs (including salaries, benefits, travel, recruiting, continuing education and training), facilities costs, printing, reproduction, communications and equipment depreciation. SG&A increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2001 due the increase in expenses necessary to support higher revenue and to strengthen the infrastructure to market and grow the Company, including our proposal facilities and systems, and new finance and compliance personnel. The increase was also due to SG&A related to businesses acquired in fiscal 2002.

We recognized $85,000 of non-cash equity based compensation expense for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2002 related to the issuance of restricted stock units in May 2002. In future periods, the

11

quarterly amortization expense related to these restricted stock units is estimated to be approximately $250,000 and may increase if certain earnings targets are achieved.

Amortization of goodwill and other acquisition-related intangibles decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2001 due to the non-amortization of goodwill under FAS 142 effective October 1, 2001.

The increase in interest and other income in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2002 compared to the same periods in fiscal 2001 was due to an increase in the average balance of funds we invested, which were increased as a result of the completion in June 2001 of an equity offering resulting in $31.4 million of proceeds to the Company, net of offering expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, cash provided by our operations was $35.0 million as compared to $23.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 primarily consisted of net income of $29.4 million plus non-cash items aggregating $12.5 million offset by net uses of working capital of $6.9 million. Non-cash items included $6.6 million from deferred income taxes in addition to $4.6 million of depreciation and amortization. The net uses of working capital reflect a decline in accounts receivable-billed, offset by an increase in accounts receivable-unbilled, and a decline in deferred revenue of $4.3 million. During the nine months ended June 30, 2001, cash provided by operating activities consisted primarily of net income of $24.1 million plus non-cash items of $14.5 million offset by net uses of working capital of $15.6 million. Non-cash items included $7.5 million of depreciation and amortization and $3.9 million from a cumulative effect of accounting change. The net uses of working capital were primarily due to an increase in billed accounts receivable of $10.9 million and a decrease in deferred revenue of $4.2 million.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, cash used in investing activities was $21.5 million as compared to $10.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 primarily consisted of $12.7 million for two business acquisitions, expenditures for capitalized software costs totaling $4.2 million and purchases of property and equipment of $5.4 million. During the nine months ended June 30, 2001, we used cash in investing activities primarily for expenditures related to capitalized software costs totaling $5.1 million and purchases of property and equipment of $4.3 million.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, cash used in financing activities was $16.6 million as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $42.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 primarily consisted of $24.7 million of common stock repurchases offset by $8.2 million of sales of stock to employees through our Employee Stock

12

Purchase Plan and Equity Incentive Plan. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 consisted primarily of $11.7 million of proceeds from sales of stock to employees through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan and Equity Incentive Plan and $31.4 million of net proceeds from our secondary stock offering in June 2001.

In May 2000, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to $30.0 million of our common stock. Also, in June 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the use of option exercise proceeds for the repurchase of our common stock. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2002, we repurchased 796,269 shares. At June 30, 2002, $11.9 million remained available for future stock repurchases under the program. In July 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to an additional $30.0 million of our common stock.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, free cash flow (which represents cash provided by operating activities less capitalized software development costs and purchases of property and equipment) was $25.4 million as compared to $13.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. This increase was due primarily to the improvement in cash provided from operating activities, as discussed above.

Our working capital at June 30, 2002 was $214.2 million. At June 30, 2002, we had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $111.2 million and no debt. Management believes this strong liquidity and financial position will allow the Company to continue its stock repurchase program, depending on the price of the Company’s common stock, and to pursue selective acquisitions.

Our management believes that we will have sufficient resources to meet our currently anticipated capital expenditure and working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including those related to revenue recognition and cost estimation on certain contracts, the realizability of goodwill, income taxes, certain accrued liabilities and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our management believes that we do not have significant off-balance sheet risk or exposure to liabilities that are not recorded or disclosed in our financial statements. While we have significant operating lease commitments for office space, those commitments are generally tied to the period of performance under related contracts. Additionally, although on certain contracts we are bound by performance bond commitments, we have not had any defaults resulting in draws on performance bonds. Also, we do not speculate in derivative transactions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue recognition. Our revenue is generated from contracts with various payment arrangements, including:  (1) fixed-price; (2) costs incurred plus a negotiated fee (“cost-plus”); (3) performance-based criteria; and (4) time and materials (used primarily by the Consulting Group). Also, some contracts contain “not-to-

13

exceed” provisions. For the nine months ended June 30, 2002, revenue from fixed-price contracts was approximately 36% of total revenue; revenue from cost-plus contracts was approximately 24% of total revenue; revenue from performance-based contracts was approximately 27% of total revenue; and revenue from time and materials contracts was approximately 13% of total revenue. A majority of our contracts with state and local government agencies have been fixed-price and performance-based and our contracts with the federal government have been cost-plus. Fixed-price and performance-based contracts generally offer higher margins but typically involve more risk than cost-plus or time and materials reimbursement contracts.

Our most significant expense is cost of revenue, which consists primarily of project-related employee salaries and benefits, subcontractors, computer equipment and travel expenses. Management uses its judgment and experience to estimate cost of revenue. Our ability to accurately predict personnel requirements, salaries and other costs as well as to effectively manage a project or achieve certain levels of performance can have a significant impact on the service costs related to our fixed-price, performance-based and time and materials contracts. If actual costs are higher than our estimates, profitability may be adversely affected. Service cost variability has little impact on cost-plus arrangements because allowable costs are reimbursed by the client.

We recognize revenue on fixed-priced contracts using the percentage of completion method, which relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs. The cumulative impact of any revisions in estimated revenue and costs are recognized in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Also, with fixed-price contracts, we are subject to the risk of potential cost overruns. We recognize revenue on our performance-based contracts as such revenue becomes fixed or determinable, which generally occurs when amounts are billable to customers, rather than as costs are incurred. For certain contracts, this may result in revenue being recognized in large, irregular increments. Additionally, costs related to certain contracts are incurred in periods prior to recognizing revenue. These factors may result in irregular revenue and profit margins for performance-based contracts, which do exist in our Consulting Group, Health Management Services Group and Human Services Group. As a result, with performance-based contracts we have more uncertainty regarding expected future revenue.

The Human Services Group and Health Management Services Group contracts generally contain base periods of one or more years as well as one or more option periods that may cover more than half of the potential contract duration. As of September 30, 2001, our average Human Services Group and Health Management Services Group contract duration was approximately 2.5 years. Our Consulting Group contracts had performance periods ranging from one month to approximately two years. Our average Systems Group contract duration was 1.2 years.

Impairment of goodwill. We assess the impairment of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Conditions that may trigger an impairment assessment include a history of operating losses of the related business, a significant reduction in the revenue of the related business, a loss of a major customer, and a decrease in our market capitalization relative to net book value, among others. An impairment would be considered to exist when the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the intangible asset are less than the carrying amount of the asset. Management uses its judgment to estimate future cash flows.

Forward Looking Statements

From time to time, we may make forward-looking statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our confidence and strategies and our expectations about revenue, results of operations, profitability, current and future contracts, market opportunities, market demand or acceptance of our products and services. These statements may involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward–looking statements. Examples of these risks include reliance on government clients; risks associated with government contracting; risks involved in managing government

14

projects; legislative changes and political developments; opposition from government unions; challenges resulting from growth; adverse publicity; and legal, economic, and other risks detailed in Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2002.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We believe that our exposure to market risk related to the effect of changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices with regard to instruments entered into for trading or for other purposes is immaterial.
