for interim financial information and 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 generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CONSOLIDATION/COMBINATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the SPAR
Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

3.       SEGMENTS

Utilizing the management approach, the SPAR Group has broken down its
business based upon the nature of services provided (i.e., merchandising
services, incentive marketing services and Internet-based software). The
Merchandising Services Division consists of SMI (an intermediate holding
company), SMF, SMNEV, SBRS and SINC (collectively, the "SPAR Marketing
Companies"), the PIA Companies and the International Division (SPAR Group
International, Inc.). The Incentive Marketing Division consists of each of SIM
(an intermediate holding company) and SPGI. The Internet Division is
SPARinc.com, Inc.

Merchandising services generally consist of regularly scheduled, routed
services provided at the stores for a specific retailer or multiple
manufacturers primarily under multiple-year contracts. Services also include
stand-alone large scale implementations. These services may include activities
such as ensuring that clients' products authorized for distribution are in stock
and on the shelf, adding in new products that are approved for distribution but
not present on the shelf, setting category shelves in accordance with approved
store schematics, ensuring that shelf tags are in place, checking for the
overall salability of clients' products, selling new product and promotional
items. Specific in-store services can be initiated by retailers and
manufacturers, such as new product launches, special seasonal or promotional
merchandising, focused product support and product recalls.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

These services are used typically for large-scale implementations over
30 days. The Merchandising Services Division of the SPAR Group also performs
other project services, such as new store sets and existing store resets,
re-merchandising, remodels and category implementations, multi-year shared
service contracts or stand-alone project contracts.

The Incentive Marketing Division generally consists of designing and
implementing premium incentives, managing meetings and group travel for clients
throughout the United States. These services may include providing a variety of
consulting, creative, program administrative, travel and merchandise fulfillment
services to companies seeking to motivate employees, salespeople, dealers,
distributors, retailers and consumers toward certain action or objectives.

In March 2000, the Company established its Internet Division to
separately market its applications software products and services. Although such
products and services were in part available through the Company's other
divisions prior to the establishment of the Internet Division, the historical
revenues and expenses related to such software products and services generally
were not maintained separately prior to 2000.

4.       RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In connection with the PIA Merger, the Company's Board of Directors
approved a plan to restructure the operations of the PIA Companies.
Restructuring costs are composed of committed costs required to integrate the
SPAR Companies' and the PIA Companies' field organizations and the consolidation
of administrative functions to achieve beneficial synergies and costs savings.

The SPAR Group recognized termination costs in accordance with EITF
95-3, RECOGNITION OF LIABILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH A BUSINESS COMBINATION.

The following table displays a roll-forward of the liabilities for
restructuring and other charges from December 31, 2000 to March 31, 2001 (in

OVERVIEW
--------

The Company provides merchandising services to manufacturers and
retailers principally in mass merchandiser, chain, discount drug and grocery
stores through its Merchandising Services Division. In addition, the SPAR
Group's Incentive Marketing Division designs and implements premium incentives,
manages group meetings and group travel principally for corporate clients. In
March 2000, the Company established its Internet Division to separately market
its software applications, products and services. Although such products and
services were in part available through the Company's other divisions prior to
the establishment of the Internet Division, the historical revenues and expenses
related to such software products and services generally were not maintained
separately. For 2000, the revenues for the Internet Division were not
significant and have been included below in the discussion of the condition and
results of the Incentive Marketing Division. In November 2000, the Company
established its International Division to expand its merchandise services
business offshore. There were no revenues for the International Division in
2000.

============    ===========    ===========     ==========  =========

Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased by
$4.7 million or 14.7% from the three months ended March 31, 2000 due principally
to discontinued PIA programs, partially offset by an increase in project
revenue.

Merchandising Services net revenues for the three months ended March
31, 2001, were $15.0 million, compared to $24.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. The decrease in net revenues is primarily attributed to
discontinued in-store merchandising programs previously contracted with programs
from former PIA Companies.

Incentive Marketing net revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2001 were $12.5 million, compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, a 64.0% increase. The increase in net revenues is primarily due
to an increase in program revenue principally from new clients. The timing of
Incentive Marketing revenue depends upon the client placement of programs.
Therefore, revenue for any given quarter may not be indicative of total revenue
for the year.

COST OF REVENUES

The following table sets forth cost of revenues by division in dollars
and as a percentage of net revenues by division for the periods indicated:

========        =====          ========         =====         ======

Cost of revenues in the Merchandising Services segment consists of
in-store labor (including travel expenses) and field management. Cost of
revenues in the Company's Incentive Marketing and Internal-Based Software
segments consists of direct labor, independent contractor expenses, food,
beverage, entertainment and travel costs. Cost of revenues for the three months
ended March 31, 2001, were $18.8 million or 68.0% of net revenues, compared to
$23.0 million or 70.8% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2000.

Merchandising Services cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues
decreased 8.3% to 58.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to
66.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This decrease is principally
attributable to reduced labor costs due to continued efficiencies realized in
2001.

Incentive Marketing cost of revenues, as a percentage of net revenues
decreased 4.0% to 79.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to
83.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, primarily due to a more
favorable product mix in 2001.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses
as well as depreciation and amortization. Selling, general and administrative
expenses include corporate overhead, project management, information systems,
executive compensation, human resources expenses, legal and accounting expenses.
The following table sets forth the operating expenses as a percentage of net
revenues for the time periods indicated:

=========         =====        =======          =====        =======

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.9 million,
or 23.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2001, to $6.4 million compared to
$8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This decrease was
primarily due to efficiencies resulting from the merger of the PIA Companies'
with the SPAR Operating Companies offset by approximately $400,000 of SG&A
expenses related to the Internet and International Divisions.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2001, due primarily to an increase in depreciation and
amortization of customized internal software costs capitalized (under SOP 98-1).

OTHER INCOME

In January 2000, the Company sold its investment in an affiliate for
approximately $1.5 million. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately $0.8
million, which is included in other income.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2001, over the three months ended March 31, 2000, due to decreased
debt levels, as well as, decreased interest rates in 2001.

13

SPAR GROUP INC.

INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision in the first quarter of 2001 represents a
combined federal and state income tax rate of 42% compared to 44% for the first
quarter of 2000.

NET INCOME

The SPAR Group had net income of $0.7 million in the first quarter of
2001 or $0.04 per basic and diluted share compared to net income of $0.4 million
or $0.02 per basic and diluted share in the corresponding period in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In the three months ended March 31, 2001, the SPAR Group had pre-tax
income of $1.2 million and experienced positive operating cash flow of $0.3
million.

Management believes that based upon SPAR Group's current working capital
position and the existing credit facilities, funding will be sufficient to
support ongoing operations over the next twelve months.

DEBT

In 1999, IBJ Whitehall and the members of the SPAR Group (other than
PIA Canada) (collectively, the "Borrowers") entered into a Revolving Credit,
Term Loan and Security Agreement as amended (the "Bank Loan Agreement"). The
Bank Loan Agreement provides the Borrowers with a $15 million Revolving Credit
facility and a $2.5 million term loan. The Revolving Credit facility allows the
Borrowers to borrow up to $15 million based upon a borrowing base formula as
defined in the Agreement (principally 85% of "eligible" accounts receivable).
The Bank Loan Agreement's revolving credit loans of $15.0 million are scheduled
to mature on September 21, 2002. The Term Loan amortizes in equal monthly
installments of $83,334. The revolving loans bear interest at IBJ Whitehall's
"Alternate Base Rate" plus one-half of one percent (0.50%) (a total of 8.50% per
annum at March 31, 2001), and the Term Loan bears interest at such "Alternate
Based Rate" plus three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) (a total of 8.75% per
annum at March 31, 2001). In addition, the Borrowers are required to make
mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to 25% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined
in the Bank Loan Agreement, for each fiscal year, to be applied first to the
Term Loan and then to the revolving credit loans (subject to the Borrowers'
ability to re-borrow revolving advances in accordance with the terms of the Bank
Loan Agreement). The facility is secured with the assets of the SPAR Group.

The Bank Loan Agreement contains an option for the Bank to purchase
16,667 shares of common stock of the Company for $0.01 per share in the event
that the Company's average closing share price over ten consecutive trading day
period exceeds $15.00 per share. This option expires September 22, 2002.

14

SPAR GROUP INC.

The Bank Loan Agreement contains certain financial covenants that must
be met by the Borrowers on a consolidated basis, among which are a minimum "Net
Worth", a "Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio", a minimum ratio of Debt to EBITDA, and
a minimum EBITDA, as such terms are defined in the Bank Loan Agreement.

The balance outstanding on the revolving line of credit was $8.3
million and $7.8 million at March 31, 2001, and December 31, 2000, respectively.
As of March 31, 2001, based upon the borrowing base formula, the SPAR Group had
availability of $4.0 million of the $6.7 million unused revolving line of
credit.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2001, was $0.3 million, compared with net cash used of $0.7 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Cash provided by operating activities
in 2001 was primarily a result of operating profits, a decrease in accounts
receivable, and increased accounts payable, offset by a decrease in
restructuring charges, an increase in prepaid expenses and a decrease in
deferred revenue.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March
31, 2001, was $0.3 million, compared with net cash provided of $1.0 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000. The net cash used in investing activities
resulted from the purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2001, was $10 thousand, compared with net cash used by financing
activities of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

The above activity resulted in no change in cash and cash equivalents
for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to a net decrease of $0.8
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

At March 31, 2001, the Company had negative working capital of $1.1
million as compared to negative working capital of $2.2 million at December 31,
2000, availability under its revolving credit facility was $4.0 million at March
31, 2001, compared to $4.2 million at December 31, 2000 and a current ratio of
0.97 and 0.93 as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents and the timely collection of its receivables
provide the SPAR Group's current liquidity. However, the potential of delays in
collection of receivables due from any of the SPAR Group's major clients, or a
significant reduction in business from such clients, or the inability to acquire
new clients, would have a material adverse effect on the SPAR Group's cash
resources and its ongoing ability to fund operations.

As of March 31, 2001, the SPAR Group is obligated, under certain
circumstances, to pay severance compensation to its employees and other costs in
connection with the Merger (restructure charges) of approximately $3.2 million.
In addition, the Company incurred substantial cost in connection with the
transaction, including legal, accounting and investment banking fees estimated
to be an

15

SPAR GROUP INC.

aggregate unpaid obligation as of March 31, 2001 of approximately $1.4 million.
The SPAR Group has also accrued approximately $2.2 million for expenses incurred
by PIA prior to the Merger, which have not been paid as of March 31, 2001.
Management believes the current bank credit facilities are sufficient to fund
operations and working capital, including the current maturities of debt
obligations, but may not be sufficient to reduce obligations of the Merger with
PIA. The Company is currently working to secure additional long-term capital to
meet the non-operational credit needs. However, there can be no assurances that
the Company will be successful in these negotiations.

As of March 31, 2001, a total of $5.5 million of amounts due to certain
stockholders remained outstanding, of which approximately $3.3 million have an
interest rate of 8% and are due on demand. The long-term portion totaling $2.2
million have a fluctuating interest rate equal to the sum of the prime rate (as
reported in The Wall Street Journal from time to time) plus 1%. The current bank
agreements contain certain restrictions on the repayment of stockholder debt.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The SPAR Group is exposed to market risk related to the variable
interest rate on the line of credit and term note and the variable yield on its
cash and cash equivalents. The SPAR Group's accounting policies for financial
instruments and disclosures relating to financial instruments require that the
SPAR Group's consolidated balance sheets include the following financial
instruments: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable
and long term debt. The SPAR Group considers carrying amounts of current assets
and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements to approximate the fair
value for these financial instruments because of the relatively short period of
time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization. The
carrying amounts of long-term debt approximate fair value because the obligation
bears interest at a floating rate. The SPAR Group monitors the risks associated
with interest rates and financial instrument positions. The SPAR Group's
investment policy objectives require the preservation and safety of the
principal, and the maximization of the return on investment based upon the
safety and liquidity objectives.

Currently, the SPAR Group's revenue derived from international
operations is not material and, therefore, the risk related to foreign currency
exchange rates is not material.

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

The SPAR Group has no derivative financial instruments or derivative
commodity instruments in its cash and cash equivalents and investments. The SPAR
Group invests its cash and cash equivalents in investments in high-quality and
highly liquid investments consisting of taxable money market instruments.
