NOTE 1:  BASIS OF  PRESENTATION

      The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  of Data
Systems & Software Inc.  ("DSSI") and  subsidiaries  (the  "Company")  have been
prepared in accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the
United  States  of  America  for  interim  financial  information  and  with the
instructions to 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  consolidated  financial
statements.  In the opinion of management,  all adjustments considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month
period ended  September 30, 2004 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results
that may be expected  for the year ending  December 31,  2004.  These  unaudited
consolidated  financial  statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
consolidated   financial  statements  and  footnotes  thereto  included  in  the
Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year  ended  December  31,  2003.
Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made  to the  Company's  prior  period's
consolidated   financial   statements   to  conform  to  the  current   period's
consolidated financial statement presentation.

NOTE 2: FINANCING OF OPERATIONS

      As of  September  30,  2004,  the Company  had working  capital of $1,149,
including $896 in non-restricted cash and cash equivalents. Net cash used in the
nine months of 2004 was $317. Net cash of $542 was used in operating  activities
during the first three quarters of 2004. The net loss for the nine-month  period
ended  September  30, 2004 of $860,  was due  primarily to the net loss from the
Company's   investment  in  Comverge  of  $361  and  expenses  incurred  in  the
unsuccessful  transaction with Kardan Communications Ltd. of $342. The Company's
use of cash in  operating  activities  during the first nine  months of 2004 was
primarily  for payment of accounts  payable and other  liabilities  in excess of
collections  of  trade  accounts  receivables  of  $676,  net.  Net cash of $671
provided by investing  activities,  was primarily  from the net proceeds of $975
from  the  sale by the  Company  of  preferred  shares  of its  Comverge  equity
investment,  less  amounts  used to fund  employee  termination  benefits in the
Company's  majority-owned  dsIT  subsidiary  of $257.  Net cash of $446  used in
financing activities was primarily for payment of debt of $481.

      Approximately $287 of the total working capital at September 30, 2004, was
in  dsIT.  Due to  Israeli  tax  and  company  law  constraints,  as well as the
significant  minority interest in dsIT, such working capital and cash flows from
dsIT's operations are not readily available to finance U.S. activities.

      dsIT was utilizing  approximately $859 of its $1,100 lines of credit as of
September 30, 2004.  dsIT's lines of credit are  denominated  in NIS and bear an
average interest rate of the Israeli prime rate plus 1.4% per annum. The Israeli
prime rate fluctuates and as of September 30, 2004 was 5.6%.

      The Company  intends to fund its US activities with the cash available and
anticipated  profits  from  its  US  operations.  The  Company  is  seeking  and
considering  various  restructuring,  merger  or  acquisition  and/or  financing
transactions.  Should the Company  need  additional  liquidity to finance its US
activities  and should it be  unsuccessful  in  completing a timely  transaction
providing the necessary  liquidity,  it may not have sufficient funds to finance
its US  activities.  In such event,  the Company  might need to sell  additional
Comverge shares.

      In September  2004,  the Company  signed an agreement  with certain  other
shareholders of Comverge's  Series A Preferred Stock for the sale by the Company
to other  shareholders  of  shares  of  Comverge  Series A  Preferred  Stock for
approximately  $1,000,  resulting in a gain of $705. After giving effect to this
transaction,  the Company held approximately 11% of Comverge's  preferred equity
and approximately 34% of its total equity.


      In  October  2004  Comverge  completed  the  sale of  preferred  stock  to
investors. For more detail see Note 9 - Subsequent Event.

Note 4: Goodwill

      The  entire  balance  of  goodwill  was in  the  software  consulting  and
development  segment.  There were no  acquisitions  or  impairments  of goodwill
recorded during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2004.

      The  Company's   amortizable   intangible  assets  consisted  of  software
licenses, with a gross carrying amount of $253, accumulated amortization of $163
and $139 and net balances of $90 and $114, as of September 30, 2004 and December
31, 2003,  respectively.  All intangibles  assets are being amortized over their
estimated useful lives, which averaged 5 years and the amortization  expense for
the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2003 and 2004  amounted to $59 and $24,
respectively.

Note 5: Warranty Provision

Note 6: Stock-Based Compensation

      The Company applies  Accounting  Principles  Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25,
"Accounting  for Stock Issued to Employees" and the related  interpretations  in
accounting  for its stock option  grants to employees  and  directors,  with the
disclosure   provisions   of  SFAS  No.   123,   "Accounting   for   Stock-Based
Compensation".  Under APB No. 25,  compensation  expense is  computed  under the
intrinsic  value method of  accounting  to the extent that the fair value of the
underlying  shares on the date of the grant  exceed  the  exercise  price of the
share option, and thereafter  amortized on a straight-line  basis against income
over the expected service period.

      Had compensation cost for the Company's option plans been determined based
on the fair  value at the grant  dates of  awards,  consistent  with the  method
prescribed in SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would have
been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

on a fair value basis in accordance  with SFAS No. 123 and EITF Issue No. 96-18,

Acquiring,  or in  Conjunction  with  Selling,  Goods or  Services"  and related

Note 8: Discontinued Operations

      Since the latter part of 2003, the Company has not recorded  revenues from
its US-based consulting business. During the second quarter of 2004, the Company
decided to  discontinue  its  efforts to  reestablish  this  business  as it was
previously conducted. As a result, the Company recorded a gain from discontinued
operations of $348, net of tax.

      Assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation were as follows:

Note 9: Subsequent Event

      In  October  2004,  Comverge  closed on the sale of  additional  preferred
equity financing in the amount of $13,600. The preferred equity is senior to the
preferred  stock of  Comverge  owned by the  Company.  This  round of  financing
diluted the  Company's  holdings to  approximately  7% of  Comverge's  preferred
equity and approximately 25% of its total equity.
