NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. Basis of Presentation
---------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Continental
Information Systems Corporation ("Company") have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
for interim financial information and in accordance with 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 accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended November 30, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2003.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2002.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has ceased daily
operations and has ceased additional funding of T1Xpert, has sustained
substantial operating losses and has used substantial amounts of working capital
in its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. In view of these matters, realization of the assets
of the Company is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing
requirements and the success of future operations. The financial statements do
not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

2. The Company
-----------

The Company is a New York corporation that was organized in 1968. In August
1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to focus on developing and
commercializing specialized software for the securities industry that focuses on
the securities processing business of clearing firms generally, especially in
connection with proposed shortening of trading cycles from settlement occurring
three days after the trade date to one day after the trade date. This change is
commonly referred to as "T+1". The newly created subsidiary that was formed to
engage in this line of business was T1Xpert Corp. ("T1Xpert").

On December 27, 2001, the Company ceased active operations and product
development in its T1Xpert subsidiary and ultimately cancelled the product
development due to the events of September 11, 2001. The ability of the Company
to obtain necessary financing during the economic environment post-September 11,
2001 was greatly hampered. The Company believed it had sufficient insurance
coverage to allow it to continue development and installation under an existing
contract and sufficient funding to locate a substitute customer to replace a
contract cancelled due to the events of September 11, 2001 had it received
sufficient insurance proceeds. Efforts to date to collect under the Company's
insurance policies have been unsuccessful and, as a result, all operations
related to T1Xpert have ceased.

The Company is currently engaged in managing its portfolio of various assets,
reducing where possible such assets to cash. The Company is also settling its
liabilities and contingencies, including tax audits.

Finally, the Company is engaged in substantial legal proceedings as discussed in
Part II of this Form 10-Q.

CONTINENTAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


Risks and Uncertainties of T1Xpert
- ----------------------------------

The Company is now considering various strategic alternatives without the use of
additional Company funds to continue the business of its subsidiary T1Xpert
Corp. ("T1Xpert"). These alternatives include the sale of T1Xpert or finding a
strategic partner to undertake commercialization of T1Xpert's products. A sale
would likely result in minimal realized value. If T1Xpert is successful in
finding a strategic partner, it will likely result in a substantial dilution of
the Company's interest in T1Xpert. While the Company has been pursuing these
alternatives, to date it has been unsuccessful. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in any of its efforts, in which case no value is
likely to be realized from its T1Xpert subsidiary.

The Company is seeking other strategic opportunities going forward to maximize
shareholder value after the cessation of operations of T1Xpert. Such
opportunities may include, but are not limited to, a business combination with
another entity. Under the terms of any such opportunity, current shareholders
may suffer substantial dilution of their interests. There can also be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to find such
strategic opportunities or, if it does, that any such new business combination
will be successful.

3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
---------------------------

Earnings (loss) per share are calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standard No. 128 (SFAS 128), Earnings per Share, which specifies standards for
computing and disclosing net income or loss per share. Basic and diluted net
loss per share for the six months ended November 30, 2002 and 2001, were
computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the periods. As of November 30, 2002, the Company had issued
and outstanding options to purchase 32,140 shares of common stock (see Note 7).
The effect of these options is anti-dilutive in the computation of diluted net
loss per share.

4. Estimates
---------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

5. Concentration of Credit Risk
----------------------------

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk
consist principally of cash with financial institutions and notes receivable.
The Company maintains cash deposits with major banks and financial institutions
which may exceed federally insured limits. The Company periodically assesses the
financial condition of the institutions and believes the risk of any loss is
minimal. At November 30, 2002, cash in excess of FDIC limits amounted to
approximately $948,000.

Of the Company's notes receivable balance of $929,000, $898,000 is owed by one
customer in the aviation business. Thus, the Company is directly affected by the
financial condition of this company and the airline industry in general. The
credit risk associated with this customer is somewhat mitigated by the note
being collateralized; however, a substantial portion of such collateral is
outside the United States, thereby creating potential difficulties of recovery
of collateral in case of default.

6. Reclassifications
-----------------

Certain prior period balances in the financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the current period financial statement presentation.

7. Stock Option Plan
-----------------

In 1995, the Board of Directors adopted and the stockholders approved the
Continental Information Systems Corporation 1995 Stock Compensation Plan (the
"1995 Plan"). The 1995 Plan provides for the issuance of options covering up to
1,000,000 shares of common stock and stock grants of up to 500,000 shares of
common stock to non-employee directors of the Company and, at the discretion of
the Board of Directors, employees of and independent contractors and consultants
to the Company.

A summary of the status of the 1995 Plan as of November 30, 2002:


Weighted

Options Price Per Option
--------- ---------

Outstanding at
May 31, 2002 (154,950 exercisable) 154,950 $ 2.02

Outstanding at

=========


In 2000, the Board of Directors of T1Xpert adopted the T1Xpert Corp. Stock
Compensation Plan (the "T1X 2000 Plan"). The T1X 2000 Plan provides for the
issuance of stock options covering up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to
employees and advisory board members of T1Xpert.

As of May 31, 2002 stock option grants representing 1,642,500 shares had been
issued to employees at an option price of $.0675 per share under the T1X 2000
Plan. During the year ended May 31, 2002, 1,142,500 options were
forfeited/expired with a weighted average exercise price of $.0675 per share.
During the period ended November 30, 2002, the remaining outstanding 500,000
options were forfeited/expired with a weighted average exercise price of $.0675.

The T1X 2000 Plan is immaterial to the earnings of the Company.

8. Discontinued Operations
-----------------------

On July 14, 2000, the Company announced that it was offering for sale its
commercial aircraft engine portfolio by competitive bid, that upon completion of
the sale it would be exiting the aviation business, and that it would account
for and report the Air Group Business as a discontinued operation. As of
November 30, 2001, the majority of the assets and liabilities relating to the
Air Group Business were sold or settled.

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


Introduction
------------

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended May 31,
2002, appearing in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KA.

All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including but not
limited to statements regarding anticipated future capital requirements and the
Company's future business plans, are based on current expectations. These
statements are forward looking in nature and involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially. Among the factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially are those set forth below and
the other risk factors described from time to time in the Company's reports
filed with the SEC. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue
reliance on any such forward looking statements, which statements are made
pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such,
speak only as of the date made.


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

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended November 30, 2002 and 2001
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues
- --------
For the three months ended November 30, 2002, total revenues increased to
$193,000 from $79,000 for the comparable fiscal quarter in 2001. Interest, fees
and other income increased to $193,000 and $254,000 for the three and six months
ended November 30, 2002, respectively, from $71,000 and $146,000, respectively,
for the corresponding prior year periods. The increase is due to the receipt of
a $150,000 World Trade Center Business Recovery Grant which was offset by lower
interest income earned on notes receivable and from cash balances during the
period. Interest income for the three and six months ended November 30, 2002 was
$42,000 and $92,000, respectively, compared to $143,000 and $69,000,
respectively, for the corresponding prior year periods.

There were no equipment rentals, nor income from direct financing leases, for
the three and six months ended November 30, 2002 from $8,000 and $18,000,
respectively, for the comparable fiscal periods in 2001. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the sale of the balance of the lease portfolio during
the fiscal year 2002.

Costs and Expenses
- ------------------
Costs and expenses decreased to $623,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, for the
three and six months ended November 30, 2002 from $1.1 million and $2.4 million,
respectively, for the comparable fiscal periods in 2001. The decrease is
primarily due to the cessation of operations at T1Xpert in December 2001,
resulting in no material research and development expenses being incurred by
T1Xpert in the six month period ended November 30, 2002.

Depreciation of rental equipment decreased to $-0- for the three and six months
ended November 30, 2002 from $-0- and $5,000, respectively, for the comparable
fiscal periods in 2001. This decrease is due to the sale of the balance of the
lease portfolio in 2002.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $600,000 and $1.1 million,
respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30, 2002 compared to
$447,000 and $877,000, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2001. This
increase during the six months ended November 30, 2002 was principally due to
costs associated with restructuring the Company's operations including, but not
limited to, increased professional fees in the amount of $148,000 and provisions
for state franchise tax liabilities in the amount of $100,000. Management
expects that general and administrative costs (including legal and accounting)
will not be reduced in future periods because costs relating to the Company's
prior operations and its continuance as a publicly traded and reporting company
will continue to be incurred by the Company. However, selling costs will be
minimal since the Company does not expect to resume selling activities.


- 9 -



CONTINENTAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Income Taxes
- ------------
For the six-month period ended November 30, 2002, provision for deferred income
tax benefit on income from continuing operations was not recorded, because, in
management's opinion, the realizability of the deferred tax asset was uncertain
in light of the Company's actual operating results.


Liquidity And Capital Resources
-------------------------------

Net cash used in operations for the six months ended November 30, 2002 was
$236,000 compared to cash provided by operations of $1.6 million for the
comparable period in 2001; net cash used in continuing operations for the six
months ended November 30, 2002 was $236,000 compared to net cash used in
continuing operations in the amount of $2.2 million for the comparable period in
2001. Less cash was used for operations in the current period due to the
discontinuance of the funding of T1Xpert operations in fiscal 2002. There was no
net cash provided by discontinued operations for the six months ended November
30, 2002, compared to $3.8 million net cash provided by discontinued operations
for the six months ended November 30, 2001. The cash provided by discontinued
operations was primarily due to the sale of assets from the discontinued
operations.

As of November 30, 2002, the Company had $1.0 million in cash and cash
equivalents, as compared to $1.4 million at May 31, 2002. The decrease is
principally due to the use of cash for operations.

As of November 30, 2002, approximately 2,555,000 shares of stock had been
repurchased by the Company at an aggregate cost of approximately $2,133,000.

On August 26, 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the expenditure of funds
to repurchase up to an additional 20% or 1,033,230 shares of the outstanding
shares of its common stock.

The Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand to meet current anticipated
administrative needs until various claims against the Company can be resolved.
There can be no assurance that the Company's estimate as to the validity and
valuation of the claims against the Company is accurate, in which case the
Company may be unable to meet claims against it. This may result in the Company
needing to sell off assets at distressed prices or liens filed against the
Company also resulting in distressed asset sales or the Company seeking
bankruptcy protection. Any such distressed asset sales may further diminish the
Company's ability to meet its obligations.

The Company does not have sufficient funds on hand to develop its T1Xpert
products. Without the aid of a strategic alternative that will bring the
necessary funding, the Company will not be able to complete product development
and marketing of these products. A strategic alternative may severely dilute the
Company's interest in T1Xpert.

The Company does not anticipate entering into financing arrangements with
financial institutions which would involve collateralizing and/or leveraging the
Company's assets.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
----------------------------------------------------------

There have been no significant changes in our exposure to market risk from the
information provided in Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About
Market Risk on our Form 10-KA filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") on November 4, 2002.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures
-----------------------

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried
out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.


- 10 -


CONTINENTAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION
AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the
Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the
Company's periodic SEC filings.

(b) Changes in internal controls.

The Company made no significant changes in its internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect these controlts subsequent to the
date of their evaluation.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings
-----------------

The Company incorporates by reference prior legal matters reported in the
Company's Form 10-KA for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2002.

The claim referenced in the Company's May 31, 2002 Form 10-KA asserted by Dallas
Aerospace against the Company has been resolved with a ruling in favor of the
Company granting the Company's summary judgment motion and dismissing all claims
raised by Dallas Aerospace. This judgment was entered in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York. Dallas Aerospace has
fild an appeal with the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York on November
12, 2002.

The claim referenced in the Company's May 31, 2002 Form 10-KA asserted by the
Skytrek bankruptcy trustee against the Company has been settled by the parties,
and this settlement has been approved by the Court, with CIS Air Corporation
returning $17,500 of the deposit received from Skytrek to the trustee.

On July 30, 2002, the Company filed suit in the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York against four stockholders of the Company and
another party alleging that these parties formed an undisclosed group and
wrongfully used material, non-public information concerning the Company in
violation of applicable federal securities laws and state statutes. The Company
settled with one of these stockholders as of September 3, 2002 who has, as part
of the settlement, sold his shares in the Company back to the Company at a
discount from the market price. This stockholder also agreed to, among other
things, not acquire any additional shares in the Company. The Company intends to
vigorously prosecute this action against the remaining shareholder defendants.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION.

2. Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any

to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this

information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material
respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the

4. I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the
registrant and I have:

material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated
subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly

5. I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation, to the
registrant's auditors and the audit committee of registrant's board of directors
(or persons performing the equivalent function):

a) all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
controls which could adversely affect the registrant's ability to record,
process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for the
registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in internal controls; and

b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
controls; and

6. I have indicated in this quarterly report whether or not there were
significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent
