NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) of
PRG-Schultz   International,   Inc.  and  its  wholly  owned  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  for  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  of  normal  recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair
presentation have been included.  Operating  results for the three-month  period
ended March 31, 2006 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.

     Disclosures included herein pertain to the Company's continuing  operations
unless otherwise noted.

     For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and
Footnotes  thereto  included  in the  Company's  Form  10-K for the  year  ended
December 31, 2005.

     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

     In December 2004, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 123(R),  "Share-Based
Payment." This pronouncement  amended SFAS No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation,"  and superseded  Accounting  Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to Employees."  SFAS No. 123(R) requires that
companies account for awards of equity instruments issued to employees under the
fair value method of accounting and recognize  such amounts in their  statements
of operations. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, using the
modified prospective method and, accordingly,  has not restated the consolidated
statements  of operations  for periods prior to January 1, 2006.  Under SFAS No.
123(R), the Company is required to measure compensation cost for all stock-based
awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize  compensation expense in
its  consolidated  statements  of  operations  over the service  period that the
awards are expected to vest. The Company  recognizes  compensation  expense over
the indicated vesting periods using the straight-line method.

     Prior  to  January  1,  2006,   the  Company   accounted  for   stock-based
compensation,  as  permitted  by  SFAS  No.  123,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation," under the intrinsic value method described in APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related  interpretations.  Under
the  intrinsic  value  method,  no  stock-based  employee  compensation  cost is
recorded when the exercise  price is equal to, or higher than,  the market value
of the  underlying  common stock on the date of grant.  In  accordance  with APB
Opinion No. 25 guidance, no stock-based  compensation expense was recognized for
three month period ended March 31, 2005 except for compensation amounts relating
to grants of shares of non-vested stock (see Note C).

     The  following  table  illustrates  the effect on net loss and net loss per
share if the Company had applied the fair value  recognition  provisions of SFAS
No. 123,  "Accounting for  Stock-Based  Compensation,"  to stock-based  employee
compensation,  using the straight-line  method,  for periods prior to January 1,
2006 (in thousands, except for pro forma net loss per share information):

     In applying the treasury  stock method to determine the dilutive  impact of
common stock equivalents,  the calculation is performed in steps with the impact
of each type of dilutive  security  calculated  separately.  For the three-month
period ended March 31,  2005,  16.1 million  shares  related to the  convertible
notes were excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted earnings per share
calculated using the treasury stock method, due to their antidilutive effect.

     The fair value of all  time-vested  options is  estimated as of the date of
grant using the Black-Scholes  option valuation model. The Black-Scholes  option
valuation  model was developed  for use in  estimating  the fair value of traded
options that have no vesting  restrictions and are fully transferable.  The fair
value of market  condition  options (also known as  path-dependent  options) are
estimated as of their date of grant using more complex option  valuation  models
such as binomial lattice and the Monte Carlo  simulations.  The Company chose to
use the Monte Carlo  simulations for its  valuations.  Option  valuation  models
require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock
price   volatility.   Because  the   Company's   employee   stock  options  have
characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because
changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value
estimate,  it is  management's  opinion that existing  models do not necessarily
provide a reliable  single  measure of the fair value of the Company's  employee

     On October 30,  2001,  the Company  consummated  the sale of its  Logistics
Management  Services  business  to  Platinum  Equity,  a  firm  specializing  in
acquiring and operating technology organizations and technology-enabled  service
companies  worldwide.  The transaction  yielded initial gross sale proceeds,  as
adjusted,  of  approximately  $9.5 million with up to an additional $3.0 million
payable in the form of a  revenue-based  royalty over four years,  of which $2.2
million had been cumulatively received through March 31, 2006.

     During the first quarters of 2006 and 2005,  the Company  recognized a gain
on the sale of discontinued  operations of approximately  $0.3 and $0.2 million,
respectively,  related to the receipt of a portion of the revenue-based  royalty
from the sale of the Logistics  Management Services business in October 2001, as
adjusted for certain  expenses accrued as part of the estimated loss on the sale
of that business.

     During the fourth  quarter of 2005,  the  Company  classified  its  Channel
Revenue and Airline businesses,  and the Accounts Payable Service business units
in  South  Africa  and  Japan,   as  discontinued   operations.   The  Company's
Consolidated  Financial Statements have been reclassified to reflect the results
of these businesses as discontinued  operations for all periods  presented.  The
carrying values of the assets and  liabilities  relating to these business units
are considered insignificant for all periods presented.



                                       5




     On January 11, 2006, the Company  consummated the sale of Channel  Revenue.
Channel  Revenue was sold for $0.4 million in cash to Outsource  Recovery,  Inc.
Outsource  Recovery also  undertook to pay the Company an amount equal to 12% of
gross revenues received by Outsource  Recovery during each of the calendar years
2006,  2007,  2008 and  2009  with  respect  to  Channel  Revenue.  The  Company
recognized a first quarter 2006 gain on disposal of approximately $0.3 million.

     The South Africa and Japan Accounts  Payable  Services  business units were
closed during 2005;  the Airline  business unit continues to be held for sale as
of March 31, 2006.  During the first quarter of 2006,  the Company  recognized a
loss of $0.1 million  relating to the anticipated  sale of the Airline  business
unit.

     Earnings  (loss) from  discontinued  operations  for the three months ended
March 31, 2006 and 2005 as reported in the accompanying  Condensed  Consolidated
Statements of Operations  includes the gains and losses  related to the sales of
discontinued business units as well as operating losses of $0.4 million and $0.6
million,  respectively,  related to the operations of these discontinued  units.
The net tax  effect on  earnings  (loss)  from  discontinued  operations  is not
significant.

NOTE C - STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

     Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company had two stock compensation plans: (1)
the Stock Incentive Plan and (2) the HSA  Acquisition  Stock Option Plan; and an
employee stock purchase plan.

     The Company's  Stock  Incentive  Plan, as amended,  authorized the grant of
options or other stock based awards,  with respect to up to 12,375,000 shares of
the  Company's  common  stock  to  key  employees,  directors,  consultants  and
advisors.  The  majority of options  granted  through  March 31, 2006 had 5-year
terms and vested and became fully  exercisable  on a ratable  basis over four or
five years of continued employment.

     The Company's HSA Acquisition Stock Option Plan, as amended, authorized the
grant of options to purchase  1,083,846  shares of the Company's common stock to
certain key  employees  and  advisors who were  participants  in the 1999 Howard
Schultz & Associates  International  Stock  Option Plan.  The options had 5-year
terms and vested upon and became fully exercisable upon issuance.  No additional
options can be issued under this plan.

     Effective May 15, 1997, the Company  established an employee stock purchase
plan (the "Plan")  pursuant to Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended.  The Plan covered  2,625,000  shares of the Company's  common stock,
which could be authorized  unissued shares, or shares reacquired through private
purchase  or  purchases  on the open  market.  Under the Plan,  employees  could
contribute up to 10% of their  compensation  towards the semiannual  purchase of
stock. The employee's  purchase price was 85 percent of the fair market price on
the first business day of the purchase  period.  The Company was not required to
recognize  compensation  expense  related to this Plan.  Effective  December 31,
2005, the Company terminated the Plan.

     During 2005, the Company also made inducement  option grants outside of its
stock  compensation  plans to Mr.  James B McCurry  and Mr.  David A. Cole.  Mr.
McCurry's options were granted in two traunches,  the first of which, pertaining
to 500,000  shares,  vested in December 2005. The second  traunche is subject to
specific  performance criteria and becomes exercisable in three tiers of 500,000
shares each, as follows:  Tier 1 will become  exercisable at any time after July
29, 2006, if the closing market price per share of the Company's Common Stock is
$4.50 or higher for 45 consecutive trading days after July 29, 2006. Tier 2 will
become  exercisable at any time after July 29, 2007, if the closing market price
per share of the  Company's  Common Stock is $6.50 or higher for 45  consecutive
trading days after July 29,  2007.  Tier 3 will become  exercisable  at any time
after July 29,  2008,  if the closing  market  price per share of the  Company's
Common Stock is $8.00 or higher for 45  consecutive  trading days after July 29,
2008. These options expire July 29, 2012 and have an exercise price equal to the
closing price of the common stock on NASDAQ on July 29, 2005.


     Mr. Cole also received a non-qualified option to purchase 450,000 shares of
the common stock of the Company at an exercise  price of $3.16 per share,  equal
to the closing price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq National Market
on July 29,  2005.  The terms of Mr.  Cole's  option  grant are as follows:  the
time-vesting  tranche of his option,  representing the right to purchase 150,000
shares,  will become  exercisable  on the earlier of the 2006 annual  meeting of
shareholders   and  June  30,  2006,   and  the   performance-vesting   tranche,
representing the balance of his option, will be exercisable as follows: (a) Tier
1, representing the right to purchase 100,000 shares, will become exercisable at
any time after the earlier of the 2006 annual meeting of  shareholders  and June
30, 2006 (the "2006 Vesting Date"),  if the Company  attains a specified  target
Common  Stock  trading  price for 45  consecutive  trading  days  after the 2006
Vesting  Date;  (b) Tier 2,  representing  the right to purchase  an  additional
100,000 shares, will become exercisable at any time after the 2006 Vesting Date,
if the Company  attains a specified  target  Common Stock  trading  price for 45
consecutive  trading  days  after  the  2006  Vesting  Date;  and  (c)  Tier  3,
representing  the right to purchase an additional  100,000  shares,  will become
exercisable  at any time  after  the  earlier  of the  2007  annual  meeting  of
shareholders and June 30, 2007 (the "2007 Vesting Date"), if the Company attains
a specified  target Common Stock trading price for 45  consecutive  trading days
after the 2007 Vesting Date. Unless sooner terminated, the option will expire on
July 29, 2012.

                                       6



     On December 15, 2005, the Company's  Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors   authorized  the  immediate  vesting  of  all  outstanding   unvested
time-vesting  options  that had option  prices  that were out of the money as of
such date (the "underwater" stock options).  This action accelerated the vesting
of 2,637,616 options as of November 30, 2005. The accelerated options had option
prices  that  ranged  from  $3.16 per share to $17.25  per share and a  weighted
average option price per share of $4.97. The Compensation  Committee's  decision
to accelerate the vesting of these "underwater" stock options was made primarily
to avoid recognizing compensation expense associated with these stock options in
future  financial  statements  upon the Company's  adoption of SFAS No.  123(R),
"Share Based  Payment." By adopting  FAS 123(R) the Company  estimates  that the
annual savings will be approximately $2.4 million, $1.2 million and $0.5 million
in 2006, 2007, and 2008 respectively.

     During the three-month  period ended March 31, 2006, the stock-based charge
in connection with the expensing of stock options was $0.3 million.  As of March
31, 2006, there was $2.8 million of unrecognized  stock-based  compensation cost
related to stock  options  which is  expected to be  recognized  over a weighted
average period of 2.32 years.  No forfeitures  occurred  during the  three-month
period ended March 31, 2006.

     The following table summarizes  information about stock options outstanding
at March 31, 2006:

     The weighted-average grant date fair value of nonvested options outstanding
as of March 31, 2006 was $1.62.

     Non-vested stock awards representing 240,000 shares in the aggregate of the
Company's common stock were granted to six of the Company's officers in February
2005 and 25,000  shares were  granted to a senior  management  employee in March
2005. The total 265,000  restricted shares granted were subject to service-based
cliff vesting.  The restricted awards vest three years following the date of the
grant,  subject to early vesting upon  occurrence of certain events  including a
change of control,  death,  disability or involuntary  termination of employment
without  cause.  The  restricted  awards  will  be  forfeited  if the  recipient
voluntarily  terminates his or her employment with the Company (or a subsidiary,
affiliate  or  successor  thereof)  prior to vesting.  The shares are  generally
nontransferable  until vesting.  During the vesting period, the award recipients
will be entitled to receive dividends with respect to the escrowed shares and to
vote the  shares.  As of March  31,  2006,  former  employees  had  cumulatively
forfeited 200,000 shares of the restricted common stock. Over the remaining life
of the remaining 65,000 restricted stock awards, the Company will recognize $203
thousand in  compensation  expense  before any future  forfeitures.  The Company
recognized $27 thousand of compensation expense related to these stock awards in
2005.

NOTE E - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income.  This  Statement  establishes  items that are required to be  recognized
under accounting  standards as components of comprehensive  income. SFAS No. 130
requires,   among  other  things,   that  an  enterprise   report  a  total  for
comprehensive income in condensed financial statements of interim periods issued
to shareholders.  For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the
Company's  consolidated  comprehensive  income  (loss) was  $(10.7)  million and
$(4.9) million,  respectively. The difference between consolidated comprehensive
income (loss), as disclosed here, and traditionally  determined consolidated net
earnings, as set forth on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated  Statements of
Operations (Unaudited), results from foreign currency translation adjustments.

NOTE F - CASH EQUIVALENTS

     Cash and cash  equivalents  include  all cash  balances  and highly  liquid
investments with an initial maturity of three months or less. The Company places
its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial  institutions.
At times,  certain investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation insurance limit.

     At March 31,  2006 and  December  31,  2005,  the Company had cash and cash
equivalents  of $18.3  million and $11.8  million,  respectively,  of which cash
equivalents represent approximately $1.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
The Company did not have any cash equivalents at U.S. banks at March 31, 2006 or
December  31, 2005.  At March 31, 2006 and  December  31,  2005,  certain of the
Company's  international  subsidiaries  held  $1.0  million  and  $1.7  million,
respectively,  in temporary investments,  the majority of which were at banks in
Latin America and the United Kingdom.

NOTE G - FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING

     EXCHANGE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES

     On March 17, 2006,  the Company  completed  an exchange  offer for its $125
million of 4.75%  Convertible  Subordinated  Notes due 2006.  As a result of the
Exchange  Offer,  virtually  all  of  the  outstanding  convertible  notes  were
exchanged  for (a) $51.6  million in principal  amount of 11.0% Senior Notes Due
2011, (b) $59.8 million in principal  amount of 10.0% Senior  Convertible  Notes
Due 2011, and (c) 124,530 shares, or $14.9 million  liquidation  preference,  of
9.0% Senior Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock.



                                       8





     The material terms of these new securities include:

o    The new senior notes bear interest at 11%,  payable  semiannually  in cash,
     and are  callable  at 104% of face in year 1, 102% in year 2, and at par in
     years 3 through 5.

o    The new senior convertible notes bear interest at 10%, payable semiannually
     in  cash  or in  kind,  at  the  option  of the  Company.  The  new  senior
     convertible  notes  are  convertible  at the  option of the  holders,  upon
     satisfaction of certain conditions,  (and in certain circumstances,  at the
     option of the Company) into shares of new series B preferred stock having a
     10% annual  dividend and a  liquidation  preference  equal to the principal
     amount of notes  converted.  Dividends on the new series B preferred  stock
     may be paid in cash or in kind,  at the option of the Company.  Each $1,000
     of face amount of such notes is convertible into approximately 2.083 shares
     of new  series  B  convertible  preferred  stock;  provided  that  upon the
     occurrence of certain events,  including approval by the shareholders of an
     amendment to the Company's  Articles of  Incorporation  to allow sufficient
     additional  shares of common  stock to be issued for the  conversion,  they
     will be convertible only into common stock at a rate of approximately 1,538
     shares per $1,000 principal  amount.  The new series B preferred stock will
     be  convertible at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at
     the rate of $0.65 of  liquidation  preference  per share of  common  stock,
     subject to certain conditions, including approval by the shareholders of an
     amendment to the Company's  Articles of  Incorporation  to allow sufficient
     additional shares of common stock to be issued for the conversion.

o    The new series A preferred  stock has a 9% dividend,  payable in cash or in
     kind,  at the option of the  Company.  The new series A preferred  stock is
     convertible at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at the
     rate of $0.28405 of liquidation preference per share of common stock.

o    The series A and series B preferred  stock votes with the Company's  common
     stock on most  matters  requiring  shareholder  votes.  The Company has the
     right to redeem the new senior  convertible  notes at par at any time after
     repayment of the new senior notes, subject to certain conditions, including
     approval by the  shareholders of an amendment to the Company's  Articles of
     Incorporation to allow sufficient  additional  shares of common stock to be
     issued for the conversion. The Company also has the right to redeem the new
     series A and series B preferred stock at the stated liquidation  preference
     at any time  after  repayment  of the new  senior  notes and the new senior
     convertible notes.

o    Both the new senior notes and the new senior  convertible notes will mature
     on the  fifth  anniversary  of  issuance.  The new  series  A and  series B
     preferred stock must be redeemed on the fifth anniversary of issuance.

     The aggregate fair value of the new  instruments  issued  exceeded the book
value of the exchanged  Convertible  Subordinated  Notes by $10.3 million.  Such
amount was recognized as a loss on financial  restructuring in the first quarter
of 2006.  The Company  incurred $1.9 million of costs related to the issuance of
the new preferred stock.  Such amount was charged to additional  paid-in capital
in the first  quarter of 2006.  The Company  incurred  costs of $4.6  million in
connection  with the  issuance  of the new senior  notes and senior  convertible
notes.  Such amount has been  capitalized and will be amortized over the term of
the notes.

     The  excess  of the  fair  value of the  preferred  stock  over its  stated
liquidation  (redemption) value was credited to additional paid-in capital.  The
excesses  of  the  principal  balances  of  the  new  senior  notes  and  senior
convertible  notes over their fair values were  recorded as note  discounts  and
will be amortized on the interest method over the terms of the notes.

     NEW SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS

     On December 23, 2005, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, Security
Agreement  and Pledge  Agreement  with Petrus  Securities  L.P. and  Parkcentral
Global Hub Limited  (collectively,  the "Petrus  Entities")  and Blum  Strategic
Partners II GmbH & Co. K.G. and Blum Strategic Partners II, L.P.  (collectively,
the "Blum Entities").  These agreements  evidence a term loan to PRG-Schultz USA


                                       9





Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrower"), in an aggregate
principal  amount of $10  million.  This loan was repaid upon closing of the new
senior credit facility on March 17, 2006.

     As a part of its financial  restructuring,  the Company  entered into a new
senior   secured   credit   facility   with  Ableco  LLC   ("Ableco")   and  The
CIT/Group/Business  Credit,  Inc., a portion of which is being syndicated to the
Company's  prior  bridge  financing  lenders,  the Petrus  Entities and the Blum
Entities.  The new credit  facility  includes (1) a $25.0 million term loan, and
(2) a revolving  credit  facility that provides for revolving loan borrowings of
up to $20 million.  No borrowings are currently  outstanding under the revolving
credit facility.

     The  Borrower,  is the  primary  user under the new senior  secured  credit
facility, and the Company and each of its other existing and subsequent acquired
or  organized  direct  and  indirect  domestic  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  have
guaranteed  the new  facility.  The  Company's,  the  Borrower's  and all of the
Company's other  subsidiaries'  obligations  under the new senior secured credit
facility are secured by liens on substantially  all of its assets (including the
stock of the  Company's  domestic  subsidiaries  and  two-thirds of the stock of
certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries).

     The  new  senior  secured  credit   facility  will  expire  on  the  fourth
anniversary  of the closing of the Exchange  Offer.  The term loan under the new
senior secured credit facility will amortize with quarterly  payments  beginning
on the first  anniversary  of the closing  date of $250,000  per quarter for the
second year of the  facility,  and $500,000 per quarter for the third and fourth
years  of the  facility,  with  the  balance  due  at  maturity  on  the  fourth
anniversary of closing.

     The term loan under the new senior secured credit facility may be repaid at
the Company's  option at any time;  provided,  that any such  pre-payment in the
first year shall be subject  to a  prepayment  penalty of 3.0% of the  principal
amount  pre-paid,  and  pre-payments  in the  second  year shall be subject to a
pre-payment penalty of 2.0% of the principal amount pre-paid.  The term loan may
be pre-paid  at any time  following  the 2nd  anniversary  of the  closing  date
without  penalty.  The new senior  secured  credit  facility  also  provides for
certain mandatory repayments,  including a portion of the Company's consolidated
excess cash flow (which will be based on an adjusted EBITDA calculation),  sales
of assets and sales of certain debt and equity securities,  in each case subject
to certain exceptions and reinvestment rights.

     The Company's  ability to borrow under the revolving  credit portion of the
new  senior  secured  credit  facility  is  limited  to a  borrowing  base  of a
percentage of its eligible domestic receivables,  subject to adjustments.  Based
on this borrowing base calculation,  the Company had approximately $15.0 million
of  availability  under the  revolving  credit  facility  at the  closing of the
exchange offer.

     The  interest  on the term loan is based on a  floating  rate  equal to the
reserve adjusted London inter-bank offered rate, or LIBOR, plus 8.5% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 5.5%). The interest rate
on outstanding  revolving  credit loans is based on LIBOR plus 3.75% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 1.0%).  The Company will
also pay an unused  commitment fee on the revolving credit facility of 0.5%. The
new senior secured credit facility also required the payment of commitment fees,
closing fees and additional expense reimbursements of approximately $1.1 million
at closing.

     The new senior secured credit facility contains  customary  representations
and  warranties,  covenants and conditions to borrowing.  The new senior secured
credit facility also contains a number of financial  maintenance and restrictive
covenants  that are  customary  for a facility of this type,  including  without
limitation  (and  subject to certain  exceptions  and  qualifications):  maximum
capital expenditures (to be measured annually); maximum total debt to EBITDA (to
be measured quarterly); minimum EBITDA (to be measured quarterly); minimum fixed
charge  coverage  ratio  (to be  measured  quarterly);  provision  of  financial
statements and other customary  reporting;  notices of litigation,  defaults and
un-matured defaults with respect to material  agreements;  compliance with laws,
permits and licenses;  inspection of properties,  books and records; maintenance
of insurance; limitations with respect to liens and encumbrances,  dividends and
retirement  of capital  stock,  guarantees,  sale and lease  back  transactions,
consolidations  and  mergers,  investments,   capital  expenditures,  loans  and
advances,  and  indebtedness;  compliance with pension,  environmental and other
laws,  operating and capitalized  leases,  and limitations on transactions  with
affiliates and prepayment of other indebtedness.



                                       10


     The new  senior  secured  credit  facility  contains  customary  events  of
default,  including  non-payment of principal,  interest or fees,  inaccuracy of
representations  or warranties in any material  respect,  failure to comply with
covenants,  cross-default to certain other indebtedness, loss of lien perfection
or priority,  material  judgments,  bankruptcy events and change of ownership or
control.

     The Company  incurred  $2.6 million of costs related to the issuance of the
term loan and revolving loan  agreement.  Such amount has been  capitalized  and
will be amortized over the term of the indebtedness.

NOTE H - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     Beginning on June 6, 2000,  three putative class action lawsuits were filed
against the Company and certain of its present and former officers in the United
States District Court for the Northern  District of Georgia,  Atlanta  Division.
These cases were  subsequently  consolidated  into one proceeding  styled: In re
Profit Recovery Group  International,  Inc. Sec.  Litig.,  Civil Action File No.
1:00-CV-1416-CC (the "Securities Class Action Litigation"). On February 8, 2005,
the Company  entered into a Stipulation  of Settlement of the  Securities  Class
Action  Litigation.  On February 10, 2005, the United States  District Court for
the Northern District of Georgia,  Atlanta Division  preliminarily  approved the
terms of the Settlement.  On May 26, 2005, the Court approved the Stipulation of
Settlement  ("Settlement")  entered  into by the  Company  with the  Plaintiff's
counsel, on behalf of all putative class members, pursuant to which it agreed to
settle the consolidated  class action for $6.75 million,  which payment was made
by the insurance carrier for the Company.

     On April 1, 2003,  Fleming  Companies,  one of the  Company's  larger  U.S.
Accounts  Payable Services clients at that time, filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
Reorganization.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2003,  the Company  received
$5.5 million in payments on account from this client.  On January 24, 2005,  the
Company   received  a  demand  for  preference   payments  due  from  the  trust
representing the client.  The demand stated that the trust's  calculation of the
Company's  preferential  payments was  approximately  $2.9 million.  The Company
disputed the claim.

     On March 30,  2005,  the Company was sued by the Fleming  Post-Confirmation
Trust ("PCT") in a bankruptcy  proceeding  of the Fleming  Companies in the U.S.
Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of Delaware  to recover  approximately  $5.5
million of alleged  preferential  payments.  The PCT's claims were  subsequently
amended  to  add  a  claim  for  alleged   fraudulent   transfers   representing
approximately  $2.0 million in  commissions  paid to the Company with respect to
claims  deducted from vendors that the client  subsequently  re-credited  to the
vendors.  The Company believes that it has valid defenses to the PCT's claims in
the  proceeding.  In  December  2005,  the PCT offered to settle the case for $2
million.  The Company  countered with an offer to waive its bankruptcy claim and
to pay the PCT $250,000.  The PCT rejected the Company's  settlement  offer, and
the litigation is ongoing.

     In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in and subject to
other claims,  contractual disputes and other uncertainties.  Management,  after
reviewing with legal counsel all of these actions and proceedings, believes that
the aggregate  losses,  if any, will not have a material  adverse  effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

     INDEMNIFICATION   AND   CONSIDERATION   CONCERNING   CERTAIN  FUTURE  ASSET
IMPAIRMENT ASSESSMENTS

     The Company's Meridian unit and an unrelated German concern named Deutscher
Kraftverkehr  Euro Service GmbH & Co. KG ("DKV") are each a 50% owner of a joint
venture named  Transporters  VAT Reclaim Limited  ("TVR").  Since neither owner,
acting alone, has majority control over TVR, Meridian accounts for its ownership
using the equity method of accounting.  DKV provides European truck drivers with
a credit card that facilitates their fuel purchases.  DKV  distinguishes  itself
from its  competitors,  in part, by providing  its  customers  with an immediate
advance  refund  of  the  value-added  taxes  ("VAT")  they  pay on  their  fuel
purchases. DKV then recovers the VAT from the taxing authorities through the TVR
joint venture.  Meridian  processes the VAT refund on behalf of TVR for which it
receives a percentage fee. In April 2000, TVR entered into a financing  facility
with  Barclays Bank plc  ("Barclays"),  whereby it sold the VAT refund claims to
Barclays  with full  recourse.  Effective  August 2003,  Barclays  exercised its
contractual rights and unilaterally imposed significantly stricter terms for the
facility,  including markedly higher costs and a series of stipulated cumulative


                                       11




reductions to the facility's aggregate capacity. TVR repaid all amounts owing to
Barclays  during March 2004 and terminated  the facility  during June 2004. As a
result of  changes to the  facility  occurring  during the second  half of 2003,
Meridian  began  experiencing  a reduction  in the  processing  fee  revenues it
derives from TVR as DKV  previously  transferred  certain TVR clients to another
VAT service provider.  As of December 31, 2004, the transfer of all DKV customer
contracts  from TVR to another  VAT service  provider  was  completed.  TVR will
continue to process  existing  claims and collect  receivables  and pay these to
Meridian and DKV in the manner agreed between the parties.

     Meridian agreed with DKV to commence an orderly and managed closeout of the
TVR business.  Therefore,  Meridian's  future  revenues from TVR for  processing
TVR's VAT refunds, and the associated profits therefrom, ceased in October 2004.
(Meridian's  revenues  from TVR were $0.5 million and $2.3 million for the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003,  respectively.)  As TVR goes about the orderly
wind-down of its business in future  periods,  it will be receiving  VAT refunds
from  countries,  and a portion  of such  refunds  will be paid to  Meridian  in
liquidation  of its  investment  in TVR. If there is a marked  deterioration  in
TVR's future  financial  condition  from its  inability to collect  refunds from
countries,  Meridian  may be  unable  to  recover  some or all of its  long-term
investment in TVR,  which totaled $1.9 million at March 31, 2006 exchange  rates
and $1.9  million at December  31,  2005  exchange  rates.  This  investment  is
included in Other  Assets on the  Company's  accompanying  Consolidated  Balance
Sheets.

     BANK GUARANTEE

     In July 2003,  Meridian entered into a deposit  guarantee (the "Guarantee")
with Credit  Commercial  de France  ("CCF") in the amount of 4.5  million  Euros
($5.7 million at December 31, 2003  exchange  rates).  The  Guarantee  served as
assurance  to  VAT  authorities  in  France  that  Meridian  will  properly  and
expeditiously  remit all  French VAT  refunds it  receives  in its  capacity  as
intermediary and custodian to the appropriate client  recipients.  The Guarantee
was secured by amounts on deposit with CCF equal to the amount of the Guarantee.
The annual  interest rate earned on this money is 1.0% for 2004. On November 30,
2004,  the Guarantee  was replaced with a 3.5 million Euro letter of credit.  In
May 2005,  the  Guarantee  was reduced to 2.5 million Euros and on September 30,
2005 the standby  letter of credit was  replaced  with a 2.5 million  Euro ($3.1
million at March 31, 2006 exchange rates) cash deposit with CCF.

     INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY GRANTS

     During the period of May 1993 through  September  1999,  Meridian  received
grants from the Industrial  Development  Authority of Ireland ("IDA") in the sum
of 1.4 million Euros ($1.6 million at March 31, 2006 exchange rates). The grants
were paid  primarily to stimulate the creation of 145 permanent jobs in Ireland.
As a condition of the grants,  if the number of  permanently  employed  Meridian
staff in Ireland falls below 145,  then the grants are  repayable in full.  This
contingency  expires on  September  23,  2007.  Meridian  currently  employs 205
permanent employees in Dublin,  Ireland. The European Union ("EU") has currently
proposed  legislation  that will remove the need for  suppliers to charge VAT on
the supply of  services  to clients  within  the EU. The  effective  date of the
proposed  legislation  is  currently  unknown.  Management  estimates  that  the
proposed legislation,  if enacted as currently drafted,  would eventually have a
material adverse impact on Meridian's results of operations from its value-added
tax business. If Meridian's results of operations were to decline as a result of
the  enactment of the proposed  legislation,  it is possible  that the number of
permanent  employees that Meridian employs in Ireland could fall below 145 prior
to September  2007.  Should such an event  occur,  the full amount of the grants
previously  received  by  Meridian  will  need to be  repaid  to  IDA.  However,
management currently estimates that any impact on employment levels related to a
possible change in the EU legislation will not be realized until after September
2007,  if ever.  As any  potential  liability  related  to these  grants  is not
currently  determinable,  the Company's accompanying  Consolidated Statements of
Operations  do not include any expense  related to this  matter.  Management  is
monitoring this situation and if it appears probable Meridian's  permanent staff
in Ireland  will fall below 145 and that  grants  will need to be repaid to IDA,
Meridian  will be required to  recognize  an expense at that time.  This expense
could be material to Meridian's results of operations.

     RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

     The July 31, 2005 retirements of the Company's  former Chairman,  President
and CEO, John M. Cook,  and the Company's  former Vice  Chairman,  John M. Toma,
resulted in an obligation to pay  retirement  benefits of $7.6 million  (present
value  basis)  to be  paid  in  monthly  cash  installments  principally  over a
three-year period,  beginning  February 1, 2006.  Charges of $3.9 million,  $1.4
million  and $2.3  million  had been  accrued  in 2005,  2004 and 2003 and prior
years, respectively, related to these retirement obligations.

     The March 16, 2006 amended  severance  agreements with the Company's former
Chairman,  President  and CEO,  John M.  Cook,  and the  Company's  former  Vice
Chairman,  John M. Toma, call for total cash payments of $7.0 million.  The cash
payments  to Mr.  Cook began with a payment of  $275,621  in April 2006 and will
continue at $91,874 per month for 57 months. The cash payments to Mr. Toma began
with a payment of $93,894 in April 2006 and will  continue  at $31,298 per month
for 45 months. Additionally,  under the amended separation agreements, beginning
on or about  February 1, 2007, the Company will reimburse Mr. Cook and Mr. Toma,
until each reaches the age of 80, for the cost of health  insurance for them and
their  respective  spouses,  provided  that the  reimbursement  shall not exceed
$25,000 per year (subject to CPI  adjustment)  for Mr. Cook and $20,000 per year
(subject to CPI  adjustment) for Mr. Toma.  Finally,  in April 2006, the Company
reimbursed  $150,000 to CT Investments,  LLC, to defray the fees and expenses of
the legal counsel and financial advisors to Messrs.  Cook and Toma in connection
with the negotiation of amendments to their respective severance agreements. The
Company's entering into the amendments to the severance  agreements with Messrs.
Cook and Toma was a condition precedent to the closing of the Company's exchange
offer  restructuring  its  bondholder  debt and the  closing on its  replacement
credit facility, both of which took place on March 17, 2006.

     RESTRUCTURING OBLIGATIONS

     On August 19,  2005,  the Company  announced  that it had taken the initial
step  in  implementing  an  expense  restructuring  plan,  necessitated  by  the
Company's  declining  revenue  trend over the previous  two and one-half  years.
Revenues for the years 2002,  2003,  2004 and 2005 were $439.7  million,  $367.4
million,  $350.6  million  and  $292.2  million,  respectively.   With  revenues
decreasing  in  2003,  2004  and  2005,  the  Company's  selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses had increased as a percentage of revenue in each period
(33.6%,  35.5%  and  38.1%,   respectively).   The  expense  restructuring  plan
encompasses  exit activities,  including  reducing the number of clients served,
reducing the number of countries in which the Company operates,  and terminating
employees.

     On  September  30, 2005,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  approved the
completed  restructuring  plan and  authorized  implementation  of the plan. The
Company expects the operational  plan to be fully  implemented by June 30, 2006,
and the  implementation  of the  operational  restructuring  plan will result in
severance  related  and other  charges of  approximately  $14.6  million.  As of
December 31, 2005,  the Company  recorded an $11.6 million charge related to the
restructuring, $10 million of which was for severance pay and benefits costs and
$1.6  million  of  which  related  to early  termination  of  operating  leases.
Accordingly,  pursuant to SFAS No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits,   and  SFAS  No.  88,   Employers'   Accounting  for  Settlements  and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits,  the
Company  recorded  expense for  severance  pay and  benefits of $2.0 million and
$10.0  million  in  the  three  and  twelve  months  ended  December  31,  2005,
respectively.  As of December  31,  2005 the Company had paid out  approximately
$2.8  million of  severance  and as of March 31, 2006 a total of $5.6 million of
severance  had been paid.  The  Company  anticipates  that the  majority  of the
remaining  payments  will  be  paid  out  during  the  remainder  of  2006.  The
restructuring  plan includes operating lease exit costs that the Company expects
to be incurred.  As of December 31,  2005,  the Company  accrued $1.2 million of
early  termination  costs in accordance with SFAS No. 146,  Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The Company also recorded leasehold
improvement  impairment  charges of $0.4 million  related to these  leases.  The
Company  did not record any new charges for either  early  termination  costs or
leasehold improvements as of March 31, 2006. The Company is presently evaluating
which, if any, additional  operating leases to exit as part of the restructuring
plan.

     ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     INTRODUCTION

     The Company's  revenues are based on specific  contracts  with its clients.
Such contracts  generally  specify:  (a) time periods covered by the audit;  (b)
nature and extent of audit  services  to be  provided  by the  Company;  (c) the
client's  duties in assisting  and  cooperating  with the Company;  and (d) fees
payable to the Company,  generally  expressed as a specified  percentage  of the
amounts  recovered by the client  resulting  from liability  overpayment  claims
identified.

     In addition to contractual provisions, most clients also establish specific
procedural  guidelines that the Company must satisfy prior to submitting  claims
for client  approval.  These  guidelines  are  unique to each  client and impose
specific  requirements on the Company,  such as adherence to vendor  interaction
protocols,  provision of advance written  notification to vendors of forthcoming
claims,  securing  written claim validity  concurrence  from  designated  client
personnel and, in limited  cases,  securing  written claim validity  concurrence
from the  involved  vendors.  Approved  claims are  processed by clients and are
generally  realized by a cash payment or by a reduction to the vendor's accounts
payable balance.

     The Company generally  recognizes  revenue on the accrual basis except with
respect  to  its  Meridian  VAT  refunds   business   ("Meridian")  and  certain
international Accounts Payable Services units where revenue is recognized on the
cash basis in accordance  with guidance  issued by the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission in Staff Accounting  Bulletin  ("SAB") No. 104, Revenue  Recognition.
Revenue is generally  recognized  for a  contractually  specified  percentage of
amounts  recovered  when it has been  determined  that the client  has  received
economic  value  (generally  through  credits  taken against  existing  accounts
payable  due to the  involved  vendors  or refund  checks  received  from  those
vendors), and when the following criteria are met: (a) persuasive evidence of an
existing contractual  arrangement between the Company and the client exists; (b)
services  have  been  rendered;  (c) the fee  billed  to the  client is fixed or
determinable;  and (d) collectability is reasonably  assured. In certain limited
circumstances,  the Company  will  invoice a client prior to meeting all four of
these  criteria.  In those  instances,  revenue  is  deferred  until  all of the
criteria are met. Historically, there has been a certain amount of revenue that,
even though  meeting  the  requirements  of the  Company's  revenue  recognition
policy,  relates to  underlying  claims  ultimately  rejected  by the  Company's
clients'  vendors.  In that case, the Company's  clients may request a refund of
such amount. The Company records such refunds as a reduction of revenue.

     The  contingent  fee based VAT Reclaim  division of the Company's  Meridian
business,  along with certain  other  international  Accounts  Payable  Services
units, recognize revenue on the cash basis in accordance with guidance issued by
the Securities and Exchange  Commission in Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No.
104, Revenue Recognition.  Based on the guidance in SAB No. 104, Meridian defers
recognition of contingent fee revenues to the accounting period in which cash is
both received from the foreign governmental agencies reimbursing the value-added
tax ("VAT") claims and transferred to Meridian's clients.

     The   Company   derives  an   insignificant   amount  of   revenues   on  a
"fee-for-service" basis where revenue is based upon a flat fee, or fee per hour,
or fee per unit of usage.  The  Company  recognizes  revenue  for these types of
services as they are  provided  and  invoiced  and when the revenue  recognition
criteria described above in clauses (a) through (d) have been satisfied.

     AUDIT CONTRACT FOR STATE OF CALIFORNIA MEDICARE

     On March 29, 2005,  the Company  announced  that the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid  Services  ("CMS"),  the federal agency that  administers  the Medicare
program,  awarded the Company a contract to provide  recovery audit services for
the  State of  California's  Medicare  spending.  The  three-year  contract  was
effective  on March 28,  2005.  To fully  address the range of payment  recovery
opportunities,  the Company has sub-contracted with Concentra Preferred Systems,
the nation's largest  provider of specialized cost containment  services for the
healthcare  industry,  which will add its clinical  experience  to the Company's
expertise in recovery audit services.

     The  contract  was  awarded  as part of a  demonstration  program by CMS to
recover overpayments through the use of recovery auditing.  The Company began to
incur  capital  expenditures  and employee  compensation  costs  related to this
contract in 2005. Such capital expenditures and employee compensation costs will
continue to be  incurred in advance of the first  revenues to be earned from the


                                       14


contract,  expected later in 2006. The Company believes this contract represents
a  large  opportunity  in the  healthcare  recovery  audit  sector  and  will be
beneficial to the Company's  future  earnings.  Recent  progress on the Medicare
claims project has been encouraging.

     OPERATIONAL RESTRUCTURING

     On August 19,  2005,  the Company  announced  that it had taken the initial
step  in  implementing  an  expense  restructuring  plan,  necessitated  by  the
Company's  declining  revenue  trend over the previous  two and one-half  years.
Revenues for the years 2002,  2003,  2004 and 2005 were $439.7  million,  $367.4
million,  $350.6  million  and  $292.2  million,  respectively.   With  revenues
decreasing  in  2003,  2004  and  2005,  the  Company's  selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses had increased as a percentage of revenue in each period
(33.6%,  35.5%  and  38.1%,   respectively).   The  expense  restructuring  plan
encompasses  exit activities,  including  reducing the number of clients served,
reducing the number of countries in which the Company operates,  and terminating
employees.

     On  September  30, 2005,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  approved the
completed  restructuring plan and authorized  implementation of the plan. Almost
all of the planned savings are expected to come in the area of selling,  general
and administrative expenses and only a small percentage of the Company's auditor
staff will be directly impacted by the reductions.  The Company  implemented the
plan  and  for  the  year  recorded  an  $11.6  million  charge  related  to the
restructuring, $10 million of which was for severance pay and benefits costs and
$1.6  million  of  which  related  to early  termination  of  operating  leases.
Accordingly,  pursuant to SFAS No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits,   and  SFAS  No.  88,   Employers'   Accounting  for  Settlements  and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits,  the
Company  recorded  expense for  severance  pay and  benefits of $2.0 million and
$10.0  million  in  the  three  and  twelve  months  ended  December  31,  2005,
respectively.  As of December  31,  2005 the Company had paid out  approximately
$2.8  million of  severance  and as of March 31, 2006 a total of $5.6 million of
severance  had been paid.  The  Company  anticipates  that the  majority  of the
remaining  payments  will  be  paid  out  during  the  remainder  of  2006.  The
restructuring  plan includes operating lease exit costs that the Company expects
to be  incurred.  As of December  31, 2005 the Company  accrued  $1.2 million of
early  termination  costs in accordance with SFAS No. 146,  Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The Company also recorded leasehold
improvement  impairment  charges of $0.4 million  related to these  leases.  The
Company  did not record any new  charges  for either  termination  of  leasehold
improvements as of March 31, 2006. The Company is presently evaluating which, if
any, additional operating leases to exit as part of the restructuring plan.

     FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING

     On October 19, 2005 the Board of Directors of the Company  formed a Special
Restructuring  Committee  to  oversee  the  efforts  of the  Company,  with  the
assistance  of its  financial  advisor,  Rothschild  Inc.,  to  restructure  the
Company's financial obligations, including its obligations under its convertible
notes due November  2006,  and to improve the Company's  liquidity.  The Company
successfully completed the financial restructuring on March 17, 2006.

     Pursuant to the financial restructuring, the Company exchanged:

o    $400  principal  amount  of its  11.0%  Senior  Notes  Due  2011,  plus  an
     additional  amount of principal equal to accrued and unpaid interest due on
     the existing notes held by the tendering holders;

o    $480  principal  amount  of its  10.0%  Senior  Convertible  Notes Due 2011
     convertible  into  new  10.0%  Senior  Series B  Convertible  Participating
     Preferred Stock and/or common stock; and

o    one  share,  $120  liquidation  preference,  of its  9.0%  Senior  Series A
     Convertible Participating Preferred Stock convertible into common stock;

for each $1,000 principal amount of outstanding 4.75%  Convertible  Subordinated
Notes due November 2006.

     Approximately 99.6% of the aggregate $125 million  outstanding  convertible
notes were tendered for exchange and accepted by the Company.



                                       15



     The material terms of these new securities include:

o    The new senior notes bear interest at 11%,  payable  semiannually  in cash,
     and are  callable  at 104% of face in year 1, 102% in year 2, and at par in
     years 3 through 5.

o    The new senior convertible notes bear interest at 10%, payable semiannually
     in  cash  or in  kind,  at  the  option  of the  Company.  The  new  senior
     convertible  notes  are  convertible  at the  option of the  holders,  upon
     satisfaction of certain conditions,  (and in certain circumstances,  at the
     option of the Company) into shares of new series B preferred stock having a
     10% annual  dividend and a  liquidation  preference  equal to the principal
     amount of notes  converted.  Dividends on the new series B preferred  stock
     may be paid in cash or in kind,  at the option of the Company.  Each $1,000
     of face  amount of such  notes are  convertible  into  approximately  2.083
     shares of new series B convertible  preferred stock; provided that upon the
     occurrence of certain events,  including approval by the shareholders of an
     amendment to the Company's  Articles of  Incorporation  to allow sufficient
     additional  shares of common  stock to be issued for the  conversion,  they
     will be convertible only into common stock at a rate of approximately 1,538
     shares per $1,000  principal  amount.  The new series B preferred  stock is
     convertible at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at the
     rate of $0.65 of liquidation  preference per share of common stock, subject
     to  certain  conditions,  including  approval  by  the  shareholders  of an
     amendment to the Company's  Articles of  Incorporation  to allow sufficient
     additional shares of common stock to be issued for the conversion.

o    The new series A preferred  stock has a 9% dividend,  payable in cash or in
     kind,  at the option of the  Company.  The new series A preferred  stock is
     convertible at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at the
     rate of $0.28405 of liquidation preference per share of common stock.

o    The series A and series B  preferred  stock have the right to vote with the
     Company's  common stock on most matters  requiring  shareholder  votes. The
     Company has the right to redeem the new senior  convertible notes at par at
     any time after repayment of the new senior notes.  The Company also has the
     right to redeem the new series A and series B preferred stock at the stated
     liquidation  preference at any time after repayment of the new senior notes
     and the new senior convertible notes.

o    Both the new senior  notes and the new senior  convertible  notes mature on
     the fifth anniversary of issuance.  The new series A and series B preferred
     stock must be redeemed on the fifth anniversary of issuance.

     Immediately   following   the  closing  of  the   financial   restructuring
transactions,  the existing common  shareholders owned  approximately 54% of the
equity of the Company.  If all the new senior  convertible  notes had  converted
into  series B  preferred  stock  immediately  on  completion  of the  financial
restructuring,  the existing common  shareholders would have owned approximately
30% of the equity of the Company  (excluding any potential  future dilution from
the Company's management incentive plan).

     As a part of its financial  restructuring,  the Company also entered into a
new  senior  secured  credit   facility  with  Ableco  LLC  ("Ableco")  and  The
CIT/Group/Business  Credit,  Inc., a portion of which is being syndicated to the
Company's prior bridge financing lenders, Petrus Securities L.P. and Parkcentral
Global Hub Limited  (collectively,  the "Petrus  Entities")  and Blum  Strategic
Partners II GmbH & Co. K.G. and Blum Strategic Partners II, L.P.  (collectively,
the "Blum  Entities").  An affiliate of the Blum Entities was a member of the Ad
Hoc Committee of holders of the Company's  convertible  notes due November 2006,
with the right to designate one member of the Company's Board of Directors,  and
together with its affiliates, the Company's largest shareholder.  The new credit
facility  includes  (1) a $25.0  million term loan,  and (2) a revolving  credit
facility that provides for revolving  loan  borrowings of up to $20 million.  No
borrowings are currently outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

     PRG-Schultz  USA, Inc., the Company's direct  wholly-owned  subsidiary (the
"borrower"),  is the  primary  borrower  under  the new  senior  secured  credit
facility, and the Company and each of its other existing and subsequent acquired
or  organized  direct  and  indirect  domestic  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  have
guaranteed  the new facility.  The  borrower's  and all of the  Company's  other
subsidiaries'  obligations  under the new senior  secured  credit  facility  are
secured by liens on  substantially  all of the Company's  assets  (including the
stock of our domestic subsidiaries and two-thirds of the stock of certain of our
foreign subsidiaries).



                                       16


     The  new  senior  secured  credit   facility  will  expire  on  the  fourth
anniversary of the closing of the exchange offering. The term loan under the new
senior secured credit facility will amortize with quarterly  payments  beginning
on the first  anniversary  of the closing  date of $250,000  per quarter for the
second year of the  facility,  and $500,000 per quarter for the third and fourth
years  of the  facility,  with  the  balance  due  at  maturity  on  the  fourth
anniversary of closing.

     The term loan under the new senior secured credit facility may be repaid at
the Company's  option at any time;  provided,  that any such  pre-payment in the
first year shall be subject  to a  prepayment  penalty of 3.0% of the  principal
amount  pre-paid,  and  pre-payments  in the  second  year shall be subject to a
pre-payment penalty of 2.0% of the principal amount pre-paid.  The term loan may
be pre-paid  at any time  following  the 2nd  anniversary  of the  closing  date
without  penalty.  The new senior  secured  credit  facility  also  provides for
certain  mandatory  repayments,  including a portion of our consolidated  excess
cash flow  (which  will be based on an adjusted  EBITDA  calculation),  sales of
assets and sales of certain debt and equity securities,  in each case subject to
certain exceptions and reinvestment rights.

     The  Company's  ability  to borrow  revolving  loans  under the new  senior
secured  credit  facility is limited to a borrowing  base of a percentage of the
Company's eligible domestic receivables,  subject to adjustments.  Based on this
borrowing  base  calculation,  the Company had  approximately  $15.0  million of
availability under the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2006.

     The  interest  on the term loan is based on a  floating  rate  equal to the
reserve adjusted London inter-bank offered rate, or LIBOR, plus 8.5% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 5.5%). The interest rate
on outstanding  revolving  credit loans is based on LIBOR plus 3.75% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 1.0%).  The Company will
also pay an unused  commitment fee on its revolving credit facility of 0.5%. The
new senior secured credit facility also required the payment of commitment fees,
closing fees and additional expense reimbursements of approximately $1.1 million
at closing.

     The new senior secured credit facility contains  customary  representations
and  warranties,  covenants and conditions to borrowing.  The new senior secured
credit facility also contains a number of financial  maintenance and restrictive
covenants  that are  customary  for a facility of this type,  including  without
limitation  (and  subject to certain  exceptions  and  qualifications):  maximum
capital expenditures (to be measured annually); maximum total debt to EBITDA (to
be measured quarterly); minimum EBITDA (to be measured quarterly); minimum fixed
charge  coverage  ratio  (to be  measured  quarterly);  provision  of  financial
statements and other customary  reporting;  notices of litigation,  defaults and
un-matured defaults with respect to material  agreements;  compliance with laws,
permits and licenses;  inspection of properties,  books and records; maintenance
of insurance; limitations with respect to liens and encumbrances,  dividends and
retirement  of capital  stock,  guarantees,  sale and lease  back  transactions,
consolidations  and  mergers,  investments,   capital  expenditures,  loans  and
advances,  and  indebtedness;  compliance with pension,  environmental and other
laws,  operating and capitalized  leases,  and limitations on transactions  with
affiliates and prepayment of other indebtedness.

     The new  senior  secured  credit  facility  contains  customary  events  of
default,  including  non-payment of principal,  interest or fees,  inaccuracy of
representations  or warranties in any material  respect,  failure to comply with
covenants,  cross-default to certain other indebtedness, loss of lien perfection
or priority,  material  judgments,  bankruptcy events and change of ownership or
control.

     TRANSACTION COSTS OF FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING, INCLUDING EXCHANGE OFFER

     The Company's  financial  advisor,  Rothschild Inc., was compensated with a
monthly  retainer  of $0.1  million in  addition  to a fee of $1.5  million.  In
addition,  the Company incurred  significant legal fees as part of the financial
restructuring.  The Company  paid  certain  expenses of the Ad Hoc  Committee of
noteholders,  including a monthly  retainer of $0.1  million to the  Committee's
financial  advisor.  The Company also paid the Ad Hoc Committee's legal fees and
financial  advisory fees of  approximately  $1.0 million.  In total, the Company
incurred  approximately $9.7 million of transaction  costs,  including legal and
financial advisory fees, in connection with the exchange offer and the financial
restructuring,  of which  approximately  $7.7  million was incurred in the first
quarter of 2006.




                                       17


     $10 MILLION BRIDGE LOAN

     On December 23, 2005, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement, Security
Agreement  and Pledge  Agreement  with Petrus  Securities  L.P. and  Parkcentral
Global Hub Limited  (collectively,  the "Petrus  Entities")  and Blum  Strategic
Partners II GmbH & Co. K.G. and Blum Strategic Partners II, L.P.  (collectively,
the "Blum Entities").  These agreements  evidence a term loan to PRG-Schultz USA
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Borrower"), in an aggregate
principal  amount of $10  million.  This loan was repaid upon closing of the new
senior credit facility on March 17, 2006.

     NEW SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS

     The  Company's  prior  senior  credit  facility  with Bank of America  (the
"Lender")  provided for revolving  credit loans up to a maximum  amount of $30.0
million, limited by the Company's accounts receivable balances. The prior senior
credit facility  provided for the availability of Letters of Credit subject to a
$10.0  million  sub-limit.  The prior  senior  credit  facility  was retired and
replaced by a new senior credit  facility on March 17, 2006, in connection  with
the closing the exchange offer.

     As a part of its financial  restructuring,  the Company  entered into a new
senior   secured   credit   facility   with  Ableco  LLC   ("Ableco")   and  The
CIT/Group/Business  Credit,  Inc., a portion of which is being syndicated to the
Company's prior bridge financing lenders, Petrus Securities L.P. and Parkcentral
Global Hub Limited  (collectively,  the "Petrus  Entities")  and Blum  Strategic
Partners II GmbH & Co. K.G. and Blum Strategic Partners II, L.P.  (collectively,
the "Blum  Entities").  An affiliate of the Blum Entities was a member of the Ad
Hoc Committee of holders of the Company's  convertible  notes due November 2006,
with the right to designate one member of the Company's Board of Directors,  and
together with its affiliates, the Company's largest shareholder.  The new credit
facility  includes  (1) a $25.0  million term loan,  and (2) a revolving  credit
facility that provides for revolving  loan  borrowings of up to $20 million.  No
borrowings are currently outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

     PRG-Schultz USA, Inc., the Company's direct wholly-owned subsidiary, is the
primary borrower under the new senior secured credit  facility,  and it and each
of the Company's other existing and subsequent  acquired or organized direct and
indirect  domestic  wholly-owned  subsidiaries have guaranteed the new facility.
The  Company's,  the  borrower's  and all of the Company's  other  subsidiaries'
obligations under the new senior secured credit facility are secured by liens on
substantially  all of the Company's assets (including the stock of the Company's
domestic  subsidiaries  and  two-thirds of the stock of certain of the Company's
foreign subsidiaries).

     The  new  senior  secured  credit   facility  will  expire  on  the  fourth
anniversary of the closing of the exchange offering. The term loan under the new
senior secured credit facility will amortize with quarterly  payments  beginning
on the first  anniversary  of the closing  date of $250,000  per quarter for the
second year of the  facility,  and $500,000 per quarter for the third and fourth
years  of the  facility,  with  the  balance  due  at  maturity  on  the  fourth
anniversary of closing.

     The term loan under the new senior secured credit facility may be repaid at
our option at any time;  provided,  that any such  pre-payment in the first year
shall  be  subject  to a  prepayment  penalty  of 3.0% of the  principal  amount
pre-paid,  and pre-payments in the second year shall be subject to a pre-payment
penalty of 2.0% of the principal amount pre-paid.  The term loan may be pre-paid
at any time following the 2nd  anniversary of the closing date without  penalty.
The new senior  secured  credit  facility  also  provides for certain  mandatory
repayments, including a portion of our consolidated excess cash flow (which will
be based on an  adjusted  EBITDA  calculation),  sales of  assets  and  sales of
certain debt and equity  securities,  in each case subject to certain exceptions
and reinvestment rights.

     The  Company's  ability  to borrow  revolving  loans  under the new  senior
secured  credit  facility is limited to a borrowing  base of a percentage of its
eligible domestic receivables,  subject to adjustments.  Based on this borrowing
base calculation,  the Company had  approximately  $15.0 million of availability
under the revolving credit facility at the closing of the exchange offer.

     The  interest  on the term loan is based on a  floating  rate  equal to the
reserve adjusted London inter-bank offered rate, or LIBOR, plus 8.5% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 5.5%). The interest rate
on outstanding  revolving  credit loans is based on LIBOR plus 3.75% (or, at the
Company's  option,  a published prime lending rate plus 1.0%).  The Company will


                                       18


also pay an unused  commitment fee on the revolving credit facility of 0.5%. The
new senior  secured  credit  facility  also required the payment of the lenders'
commitment  fees,  closing  fees  and  additional   expense   reimbursements  of
approximately $1.0 million at closing.

     The new senior secured credit facility contains  customary  representations
and  warranties,  covenants and conditions to borrowing.  The new senior secured
credit facility also contains a number of financial  maintenance and restrictive
covenants  that are  customary  for a facility of this type,  including  without

of insurance; limitations with respect to liens and encumbrances,  dividends and
retirement  of capital  stock,  guarantees,  sale and lease  back  transactions,
consolidations  and  mergers,  investments,   capital  expenditures,  loans  and
advances,  and  indebtedness;  compliance with pension,  environmental and other
laws,  operating and capitalized  leases,  and limitations on transactions  with
affiliates and prepayment of other indebtedness.

     The new  senior  secured  credit  facility  contains  customary  events  of
default,  including  non-payment of principal,  interest or fees,  inaccuracy of
representations  or warranties in any material  respect,  failure to comply with
covenants,  cross-default to certain other indebtedness, loss of lien perfection
or priority,  material  judgments,  bankruptcy events and change of ownership or
control.

     CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Except as set  forth  below  with  respect  to FAS  123(R),  the  Company's
significant  accounting policies have been fully described in Note 1 of Notes to
Consolidated  Financial  Statements of the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2005.  Certain of these accounting  policies are
considered  "critical" to the portrayal of the Company's  financial position and
results of operations,  as they require the application of significant  judgment
by  management;  as a  result,  they  are  subject  to  an  inherent  degree  of
uncertainty.  These "critical"  accounting policies are identified and discussed
in the Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results
of Operations  section of the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended  December  31,  2005.  Management  bases its  estimates  and  judgments on
historical  experience  and on various  other  factors  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  that are
not readily  apparent from other  sources.  Actual results may differ from these
estimates  under  different  assumptions  or  conditions.  On an ongoing  basis,
management  evaluates its estimates and judgments,  including  those  considered
"critical".  The development,  selection and evaluation of accounting estimates,
including those deemed  "critical," and the associated  disclosures in this Form
10-Q have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

     In December 2004, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 123(R),  "Share-Based
Payment." This pronouncement  amended SFAS No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation,"  and superseded  Accounting  Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to Employees."  SFAS No. 123(R) requires that
companies account for awards of equity instruments issued to employees under the
fair value method of accounting and recognize  such amounts in their  statements
of operations. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, using the
modified prospective method and, accordingly,  has not restated the consolidated
statements  of operations  for periods prior to January 1, 2006.  Under SFAS No.
123(R), the Company is required to measure compensation cost for all stock-based
awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize  compensation expense in
its  consolidated  statements  of  operations  over the service  period that the
awards are expected to vest. The Company  recognizes  compensation  expense over
the indicated vesting periods using the straight-line method.

     Prior  to  January  1,  2006,   the  Company   accounted  for   stock-based
compensation,  as  permitted  by  SFAS  No.  123,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation," under the intrinsic value method described in APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related  interpretations.  Under
the  intrinsic  value  method,  no  stock-based  employee  compensation  cost is


                                       19


recorded when the exercise  price is equal to, or higher than,  the market value
of the  underlying  common stock on the date of grant.  In  accordance  with APB
Opinion No. 25 guidance, no stock-based  compensation expense was recognized for
the three month  period  ended March 31,  2005 except for  compensation  amounts
relating to grants of shares of restricted stock.

     The fair value of all  time-vested  options is  estimated as of the date of
grant using the Black-Scholes  option valuation model. The Black-Scholes  option
valuation  model was developed  for use in  estimating  the fair value of traded
options that have no vesting  restrictions and are fully transferable.  The fair
value of market  condition  options (also known as  path-dependent  options) are
estimated  using the Monte Carlo  simulations as of their date of grant.  Option
valuation models require the input of highly subjective  assumptions,  including
the  expected  stock price  volatility.  Because the  Company's  employee  stock
options  have  characteristics  significantly  different  from  those of  traded
options and because changes in the subjective  input  assumptions can materially
affect the fair value estimate,  it is management's opinion that existing models
do not  necessarily  provide a reliable  single measure of the fair value of the
Company's employee stock options.

     Revenues.  Accounts  Payable  Services  revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2006 and 2005 were as follows (in millions):

     For the quarter  ended March 31, 2006  compared to the quarter  ended March
31, 2005, the Company  experienced a decline in total Accounts  Payable Services
revenues of approximately  14.2%. This trend is consistent with what the Company
has been experiencing over the past several years and was primarily attributable
to a general reduction in revenue from certain large audits because fewer claims
were processed as a result of improved client processes.  Revenues  decreased as
the  Company's  clients  developed  and  strengthened  their own internal  audit
capabilities as a substitute for the Company's services.  Further, the Company's
clients  made  fewer  transaction  errors  as  a  result  of  the  training  and
methodologies  provided by the Company as part of the Company's accounts payable
recovery  process.  These trends are  expected to continue  for the  foreseeable
future,  and as a  result,  revenues  from the  Accounts  Payable  Services  are
expected to continue to decline for the foreseeable future.

     Revenues from the Company's domestic  commercial  Accounts Payable Services
clients  also  declined  during the first  quarter of 2006  compared to the same
period of 2005. The Company believes the market for providing disbursement audit
services (which typically entail acquisition from the client of limited purchase
data and an audit  focus on a select  few  recovery  categories)  to  commercial
entities in the United  States is reaching  maturity with fewer audit starts and
lower fee rates due to increasing pricing pressures.  In response to the decline
in  performance  for  the  commercial   business,   the  Company  has  begun  to
intentionally  reduce  the  number  of  commercial  clients  serviced  based  on
profitability,  and this  trend is  expected  to  continue.  As a result  of the
foregoing,  revenues  from domestic  commercial  Accounts  Payable  Services are
expected to continue to decline for the foreseeable future.

     Cost of Revenues ("COR").  COR consists  principally of commissions paid or
payable to the Company's  auditors based primarily upon the level of overpayment
recoveries,  and  compensation  paid to  various  types of  hourly  workers  and
salaried  operational  managers.  Also  included in COR are other  direct  costs
incurred  by these  personnel,  including  rental of  non-headquarters  offices,
travel and  entertainment,  telephone,  utilities,  maintenance and supplies and
clerical assistance.  A significant portion of the components comprising COR for
the Company's  domestic  Accounts Payable  Services  operations are variable and
will  increase or decrease with  increases  and  decreases in revenues.  The COR
support bases for domestic  retail and domestic  commercial  operations  are not
separately distinguishable and are not evaluated by management individually. The
Company's  international  Accounts Payable Services also have a portion of their
COR, although less than domestic Accounts Payable Services,  that will vary with
revenues.  The  lower  variability  is due to the  predominant  use of  salaried
auditor compensation plans in most emerging-market countries.

     Accounts Payable Services COR for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2005 were as follows (in millions):

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


     The dollar decrease in cost of revenues for the Accounts  Payable  Services
was primarily due to lower revenues,  during the first three months of 2006 when
compared to the same period of the prior year. On a percentage  basis,  COR as a
percentage of revenues from the Accounts Payable services increased to 69.8% for
the three  months ended March 31, 2006,  up from 65.2% in 2005.  The  percentage
variance is primarily  related to the fixed versus variable  expense  components
within this category.

     Selling,  General,  and  Administrative  Expenses  ("SG&A").  SG&A expenses
include the expenses of sales and marketing activities,  information  technology
services and the corporate  data center,  human  resources,  legal,  accounting,
administration,  currency  translation,   headquarters-related  depreciation  of
property and equipment and  amortization of intangibles  with finite lives.  The
SG&A support bases for domestic  retail and domestic  commercial  operations are
not separately distinguishable and are not evaluated by management individually.
Due to the  relatively  fixed  nature  of the  Company's  SG&A  expenses,  these
expenses as a percentage of revenues can vary markedly period to period based on
fluctuations in revenues.

     Accounts  Payable  Services  SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2006
and 2005 were as follows (in millions):



                                                                  
                                                            2006           2005

Domestic Accounts Payable Services SG&A...........        $     6.5     $     9.4
International Accounts Payable Services SG&A......              3.6           7.9

   Total Accounts Payable Services SG&A...........        $    10.1     $    17.3
                                                          ==========    ===========


     On a dollar basis, SG&A expenses decreased by $7.2 million or 41.6% for the
Company's Accounts Payable Services operations, when compared to the same period
of 2005. This reduction is primarily  related to the Company's 2005  operational
restructuring  plan.  When  compared on a  percentage  basis to  revenue,  first
quarter 2006 SG&A was 18.1% as compared to 26.7% in the first quarter of 2005.

     MERIDIAN

     Meridian's  operating  income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2005 was as follows (in millions):

     Revenues.  Meridian  recognizes  revenue  in its  contingent  fee based VAT
reclaim  operations on the cash basis in accordance  with SAB No. 104.  Based on
the  guidance in SAB No. 104,  Meridian  defers  recognition  of revenues to the
accounting  period in which cash is both received from the foreign  governmental
agencies  reimbursing  VAT claims and transferred to Meridian's  clients.  Since
Meridian has minimal influence over when the foreign governmental  agencies make
their  respective  VAT  reimbursement  payments,  Meridian's  revenues  can vary
markedly from period to period.

     Revenue  generated  by  Meridian  decreased  by $0.4  million for the three
months  ended  March 31,  2006 when  compared  to the same  period of 2005.  The
revenue  amounts  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  2006 were  negatively
impacted  by $0.9  million  due to exchange  rate  fluctuations  relating to the
weakening of the Euro,  Meridian's  functional currency,  against the US dollar.
Meridian is in the process of developing a number of new business  services such
as fee for work basis,  accounts  payable and employee  expense  processing  for


                                       22


third parties,  tax return  processing for governmental  departments,  and Local
Agent Services Division ("LASD") opportunities. The revenues from these services
totalled  $1.1 million for the quarter  ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $0.8
million for the quarter  ended March 31,  2005.  Revenue  from such new business
services is expected to continue to increase throughout 2006.

     COR. COR consists  principally  of  compensation  paid to various  types of
hourly workers and salaried operational managers. Also included in COR are other
direct costs incurred by these personnel,  including  rental of offices,  travel
and entertainment,  telephone, utilities,  maintenance and supplies and clerical
assistance. COR for the Company's Meridian operations are largely fixed and, for
the most part, will not vary significantly with changes in revenue.

     COR for the quarter  ended March 31, 2006 were $7.4  million as compared to
$6.3  million for the same period in the prior year.  The  increase is primarily
related to increased  headcount in the Dublin  processing  center,  increases in
commissions paid to joint venture partners,  and consulting and IT costs related
to Meridian's new business services.

     SG&A.   Meridian's   SG&A  expenses   include  the  expenses  of  marketing
activities, administration, professional services, property rentals and currency
translation.  Due to the  relatively  fixed nature of Meridian's  SG&A expenses,
these  expenses as a percentage of revenues can vary  markedly  period to period
based on fluctuations in revenues.

     On a dollar basis,  the decrease in  Meridian's  SG&A for the quarter ended
March 31, 2006 compared to 2005  decreased by $0.3  million.  This was primarily
related to lower  expenses  for  professional  fees  related to the new business
development in 2006 as compared to 2005.

     CORPORATE SUPPORT

     SG&A. SG&A expenses include the expenses of sales and marketing activities,
information technology services associated with the corporate data center, human
resources,    legal,   accounting,    administration,    currency   translation,
headquarters-related  depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of
intangibles  with  finite  lives.  Due to the  relatively  fixed  nature  of the
Company's  Corporate  Support SG&A  expenses,  these expenses as a percentage of
revenues can vary markedly  period to period based on  fluctuations in revenues.
Corporate support represents the unallocated  portion of corporate SG&A expenses
not  specifically  attributable  to Accounts  Payable  Services or Meridian  and
totaled the  following  for the three  months  ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in
millions):

                                                                 ----------   ------------

On a dollar basis,  Corporate Support SG&A expenses decreased by $5.2 million or
51.5% for the Corporate Support operations,  when compared to the same period of
2005.  This  reduction is primarily  related to the Company's  2005  operational
restructuring plan. When compared on a percentage basis to consolidated revenue,
for the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2006,  Corporate  Support  SG&A was 7.5% as
compared to 13.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

     RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE

     On August 19,  2005,  the Company  announced  that it had taken the initial
step  in  implementing  an  expense  restructuring  plan,  necessitated  by  the
Company's  declining  revenue  trend over the previous  two and one-half  years.
Revenues for the years 2002,  2003,  2004 and 2005 were $439.7  million,  $367.4
million,  $350.6  million  and  $292.2  million,  respectively.   With  revenues
decreasing  in  2003,  2004  and  2005,  the  Company's  selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses had increased as a percentage of revenue in each period
(33.6%,  35.5%  and  38.1%,   respectively).   The  expense  restructuring  plan
encompasses  exit activities,  including  reducing the number of clients served,
reducing the number of countries in which the Company operates,  and terminating
employees.

     The restructuring expense for the period ending March 31, 2006 and 2005 was
as follows (in millions):



                                                                                
                                                                         2006            2005
                                                                      ------------    -----------

                                       23


     On  September  30, 2005,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  approved the
completed  restructuring  plan and  authorized  implementation  of the plan. The
Company expects the operational  plan to be fully  implemented by June 30, 2006,
and the  implementation  of the  operational  restructuring  plan will result in
severance  related  and other  charges of  approximately  $14.6  million.  As of
December 31, 2005,  the Company  recorded an $11.6 million charge related to the
restructuring, $10 million of which was for severance pay and benefits costs and
$1.6  million  of  which  related  to early  termination  of  operating  leases.
Accordingly,  pursuant to SFAS No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits,   and  SFAS  No.  88,   Employers'   Accounting  for  Settlements  and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits,  the
Company  recorded  expense for  severance  pay and  benefits of $2.0 million and
$10.0  million  in  the  three  and  twelve  months  ended  December  31,  2005,
respectively.  As of December  31,  2005 the Company had paid out  approximately
$2.8  million of  severance  and as of March 31, 2006 a total of $5.6 million of
severance  had been paid.  The  Company  anticipates  that the  majority  of the
remaining  payments  will  be  paid  out  during  the  remainder  of  2006.  The
restructuring  plan includes operating lease exit costs that the Company expects
to be incurred.  As of December 31,  2005,  the Company  accrued $1.2 million of
early  termination  costs in accordance with SFAS No. 146,  Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The Company also recorded leasehold
improvement  impairment  charges of $0.4 million  related to these  leases.  The
Company  did not record any new charges for either  early  termination  costs or
leasehold improvements as of March 31, 2006. The Company is presently evaluating
which, if any, additional  operating leases to exit as part of the restructuring
plan.

     DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     During the fourth  quarter of 2005,  the  Company  classified  its  Channel
Revenue and Airline businesses,  and the Accounts Payable Service business units
in  South  Africa  and  Japan,  as  discontinued   operations.   There  were  no
classification  changes to discontinued  operations  during the first quarter of
2006. The Company's 2005 Consolidated  Financial  Statements  included in Item 1
have been reclassified to reflect these businesses as discontinued operations.

     On January 11, 2006, the Company  consummated the sale of Channel  Revenue.
Channel  Revenue was sold for $0.4 million in cash to Outsource  Recovery,  Inc.
Outsource  Recovery also  undertook to pay the Company an amount equal to 12% of
gross revenues received by Outsource  Recovery during each of the calendar years
2006,  2007,  2008 and 2009 with  respective  to Channel  Revenue.  The  Company
recognized a gain on disposal of approximately $0.3 million.

     Also  during the first  quarter of 2006 the  Company  received a payment of
approximately  $0.3  million  related  to  the  receipt  of  a  portion  of  the
revenue-based  royalty  from  the  sale  of the  Logistics  Management  Services
business in October  2001, as adjusted for certain  expenses  accrued as part of
the estimated loss on the sale of that business.

     Earnings  (loss) from  discontinued  operations  for the three months ended
March 31, 2006 and 2005 as reported in the accompanying  Condensed  Consolidated
Statements  of  Operations  included  in Item 1  includes  the gains and  losses
related to the sales of discontinued  business units as well as operating losses
of $0.4 million and $0.6  million,  respectively,  related to the  operations of
these   discontinued   units.  The  net  tax  effect  on  earnings  (loss)  from
discontinued operations is not significant. For the quarter ended March 31, 2006
the Company recognized net earnings (loss) from discontinued operations of $0.05
million,  as compared to net earnings  (loss) of $(0.4)  million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2005.

     OTHER ITEMS

     Debt Issuance Cost. In connection  with the Company's  completed  financial
restructuring and related  transactions,  the Company incurred professional fees
and  other  transaction  costs  of  approximately  $9.7  million  which  will be
capitalized and then amortized over the term of the new indebtedness.

     Interest  Expense.  Net interest  expense was $2.6 million and $1.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.  The Company's
interest  expense  for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  2006  and 2005 was
primarily comprised of interest expense and amortization of the discount related
to the convertible notes and interest on borrowings outstanding under the senior
bank credit facility.

     Net  interest  expense  will  increase  significantly  as a  result  of the
Company's  recently  completed  financial  restructuring.  The  exchange  of the
convertible notes due November 2006 for the new senior convertible notes and new
senior notes will  initially  result in additional  annual  interest  expense of


                                       24


approximately $7.7 million. Such amount will increase in time as a result of the
amortization of note discounts. Also, the Company has the option to pay interest
on the new senior convertible notes in cash or in kind. If paid in kind, further
increases  in interest  expense  will occur.  The Company  also expects to incur
additional interest expense on its new senior secured credit facility.

     Income Tax  Expense  (Benefit).  The  provisions  for income  taxes for the
quarters  ended  March 31, 2006 and 2005  consist of federal,  state and foreign
income taxes at the Company's  effective tax rate.  For the quarter ending March
31, 2006 the  Company's  tax expense was $0.7  million and  $0.7million  for the
quarter ending March 31, 2005. The Company's  effective tax rate  approximated a
negative 6.5% and a negative 17.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2005,  respectively.  The  change in the rate from 2006 as  compared  to 2005 is
primarily related to the relative change in the income from operations.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $7.5 million in the
first quarter of 2006,  compared to $(2.7) million in the first quarter of 2005.
Cash  provided by operating  activities  during the three months ended March 31,
2006 was primarily the result of the  Company's  operating  loss being offset by
the non-cash  charge related to the financial  restructuring  and a focus on the
working capital requirements.

     Net cash used in  investing  activities  was  $(0.3)  million  in the first
quarter of 2006 and $(1.9)  million in the first  quarter of 2005.  Cash used in
investing  activities  during the first quarter of 2006 and 2005 were  primarily
related to capital purchases.

     Net cash provided by (used in) financing  activities  was $(0.8) million in
the first quarter of 2006 versus $7.0 million in the first quarter of 2005.  The
net cash used in  financing  activities  during the three months ended March 31,
2006 related to the refinancing of the 4.75% Subordinated  Convertible Notes and
the payoff of the Bridge Loan.  The net cash  provided in the three months ended
March 31, 2005 related  primarily to net  borrowings on the Company's  revolving
credit facility.

     Net cash provided by (used in)  discontinued  operations  was $0.05 million
and  $(0.2)  million  during the three  months  ended  March 31,  2006 and 2005,
respectively.  Cash provided by discontinued operations during the quarter ended
March 31,  2006 was due to a $0.4  million  receipt of a payment  related to the
sale of the Channel  Revenue  business and a $0.3  million  receipt of a payment
related  to a portion of the  revenue-based  royalty  from the former  Logistics
Management  Services  segment  that  was  sold in  October  2001.  Cash  used in
discontinued  operations  during the quarter  ended March 31, 2005 was partially
offset by the  receipt of a payment  related  to a portion of the  revenue-based
royalty from the former Logistics  Management  Services segment that was sold in
October 2001.

     As of March 31, 2006,  the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  of $18.3
million,  and no borrowings against the credit facility.  For the quarter ending
March 31, 2006,  total debt included a $25.0 million variable rate term loan due
2010, $0.5 million of the 4.75%  Subordinated  Convertible Notes due 2006, $51.6
million in principal amount of 11.0% Senior Notes Due 2011, and $59.8 million in
principal amount of 10.0% Senior  Convertible  Notes Due 2011. In addition,  the
Company had 124,485 shares of series A Convertible  Preferred stock  outstanding
with an aggregate liquidation preference of $15.0 million that is due in 2011.

     Management  believes  that  the  Company  will  have  sufficient  borrowing
capacity and cash generated from  operations to fund its capital and operational
needs for at least the next twelve months; however,  current projections reflect
that the Company's core accounts  payable  business will continue to decline and
the Company's new senior secured credit facility  requires the Company to comply
with specific financial ratios and other performance covenants.  Therefore,  the
Company must  successfully  implement  management's cost reduction plan and grow
its other business lines in order to stabilize and increase revenues and improve
profitability.

     TRANSACTION COSTS OF FINANCIAL RESTRUCTURING, INCLUDING EXCHANGE OFFER

     The Company's  financial  advisor,  Rothschild Inc., was compensated with a
monthly  retainer  of $0.1  million in  addition  to a fee of $1.5  million.  In
addition,  the Company incurred  significant legal fees as part of the financial
restructuring.  The Company  paid  certain  expenses of the Ad Hoc  Committee of
noteholders,  including a monthly  retainer of $0.1  million to the  Committee's


                                       25


financial  advisor.  The Company also paid the Ad Hoc Committee's legal fees and
financial  advisory fees of  approximately  $1.0 million.  In total, the Company
incurred  approximately $9.7 million of transaction  costs,  including legal and
financial advisory fees, in connection with the exchange offer and the financial
restructuring,  of which  approximately  $7.7  million was incurred in the first
quarter of 2006.

     EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PAYMENTS

     The March 16, 2006 amended  severance  agreements with the Company's former
Chairman,  President  and CEO,  John M.  Cook,  and the  Company's  former  Vice
Chairman,  John M. Toma, call for total cash payments of $7.0 million.  The cash
payments  to Mr.  Cook began with a payment of  $275,621  in April 2006 and will
continue at $91,874 per month for 57 months. The cash payments to Mr. Toma began
with a payment of $93,894 in April 2006 and will  continue  at $31,298 per month
for 45 months. Additionally,  under the amended separation agreements, beginning
on or about  February 1, 2007, the Company will reimburse Mr. Cook and Mr. Toma,
until each reaches the age of 80, for the cost of health  insurance for them and
their  respective  spouses,  provided  that the  reimbursement  shall not exceed
$25,000  (subject to CPI  adjustment)  for Mr. Cook and $20,000  (subject to CPI
adjustment)  for Mr.  Toma.  Finally,  in April  2006,  the  Company  reimbursed
$150,000 to CT  Investments,  LLC, to defray the fees and  expenses of the legal
counsel and financial  advisors to Messrs.  Cook and Toma in connection with the
negotiation  of  amendments  to  their  respective  severance  agreements.   The
Company's entering into the amendments to the severance  agreements with Messrs.
Cook and Toma was a condition precedent to the closing of the Company's exchange
offer  restructuring  its  bondholder  debt and the  closing on its  replacement
credit facility, both of which took place on March 17, 2006.

     BANKRUPTCY LITIGATION

     On March 30,  2005,  the Company was sued by the Fleming  Post-Confirmation
Trust ("PCT") in a bankruptcy  proceeding  of the Fleming  Companies in the U.S.
Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of Delaware  to recover  approximately  $5.5
million of alleged  preferential  payments.  The PCT's claims were  subsequently
amended  to  add  a  claim  for  alleged   fraudulent   transfers   representing
approximately  $2.0 million in  commissions  paid to the Company with respect to
claims  deducted from vendors that the client  subsequently  re-credited  to the
vendors.  The Company believes that it has valid defenses to the PCT's claims in
the  proceeding.  In early December 2005, the PCT offered to settle the case for
$2 million.  The Company  countered with an offer to waive its bankruptcy  claim
and to pay the PCT $250,000. The PCT rejected the Company's settlement offer and
the litigation is ongoing.

     OPERATIONAL RESTRUCTURING

     On August 19,  2005,  the Company  announced  that it had taken the initial
step  in  implementing  an  expense  restructuring  plan,  necessitated  by  the
Company's  declining  revenue  trend over the previous  two and one-half  years.
Revenues for the years 2002,  2003,  2004 and 2005 were $439.7  million,  $367.4
million,  $350.6  million  and  $292.2  million,  respectively.   With  revenues
decreasing  in  2003,  2004  and  2005,  the  Company's  selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses had increased as a percentage of revenue in each period
(33.6%,  35.5%  and  38.1%,   respectively).   The  expense  restructuring  plan
encompasses  exit activities,  including  reducing the number of clients served,
reducing the number of countries in which the Company operates,  and terminating
employees.

     On  September  30, 2005,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  approved the
completed  restructuring  plan and  authorized  implementation  of the plan. The
Company expects the operational  plan to be fully  implemented by June 30, 2006,
and the  implementation  of the  operational  restructuring  plan will result in
severance  related  and other  charges of  approximately  $14.6  million.  As of
December 31, 2005,  the Company  recorded an $11.6 million charge related to the
restructuring, $10 million of which was for severance pay and benefits costs and
$1.6  million  of  which  related  to early  termination  of  operating  leases.
Accordingly,  pursuant to SFAS No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits,   and  SFAS  No.  88,   Employers'   Accounting  for  Settlements  and
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits,  the
Company  recorded  expense for  severance  pay and  benefits of $2.0 million and
$10.0  million  in  the  three  and  twelve  months  ended  December  31,  2005,
respectively.  As of December  31,  2005 the Company had paid out  approximately
$2.8  million of  severance  and as of March 31, 2006 a total of $5.6 million of
severance  had been paid.  The  Company  anticipates  that the  majority  of the
remaining  payments  will  be  paid  out  during  the  remainder  of  2006.  The
restructuring  plan includes operating lease exit costs that the Company expects
to be incurred.  As of December 31,  2005,  the Company  accrued $1.2 million of
early  termination  costs in accordance with SFAS No. 146,  Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The Company also recorded leasehold
improvement  impairment  charges of $0.4 million  related to these  leases.  The
Company  did not record any new charges for either  early  termination  costs or
leasehold improvements as of March 31, 2006. The Company is presently evaluating
which, if any, additional  operating leases to exit as part of the restructuring
plan.

     FRENCH TAXATION SERVICES SETTLEMENT

     On  December  14,  2001,  the  Company  consummated  the sale of its French
Taxation Services business ("ALMA"), as well as certain notes payable due to the
Company,  to Chequers Capital, a Paris-based private equity firm. In conjunction
with this  sale,  the  Company  provided  the  buyer  with  certain  warranties.
Effective  December 30, 2004,  the  Company,  Meridian and ALMA (the  "Parties")
entered  into a Settlement  Agreement  (the  "Agreement")  pursuant to which the
Company  paid a total of 3.4 million  Euros on January 3, 2005 ($4.7  million at
January 3, 2005 exchange  rates),  to resolve the buyer's  warranty claims and a
commission dispute with Meridian.

     CONTINGENT OBLIGATION TO REPAY INDUSTRIAL  DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF IRELAND
GRANT

     During the period of May 1993 through  September  1999,  Meridian  received
grants from the Industrial  Development  Authority of Ireland ("IDA") in the sum
of 1.4 million Euros ($1.6 million at September  30, 2005 exchange  rates).  The
grants were paid  primarily to stimulate the creation of 145  permanent  jobs in
Ireland.  As a condition of the grants,  if the number of  permanently  employed
Meridian  staff in Ireland falls below 145 prior to September 23, 2007, the date
the  contingency  expires,  then the  grants  are  repayable  in full.  Meridian
currently employs 229 permanent employees in Dublin, Ireland. The European Union
("EU")  has  currently  proposed  legislation  that  will  remove  the  need for
suppliers  to charge VAT on the supply of goods and  services to clients  within
the EU. The effective  date of the proposed  legislation  is currently  unknown.
Management  estimates  that the  proposed  legislation,  if enacted as currently
drafted,  would eventually have a material adverse impact on Meridian's  results
of  operations  from its  value-added  tax business.  If  Meridian's  results of
operations  were  to  decline  as a  result  of the  enactment  of the  proposed
legislation, it is possible that the number of permanent employees that Meridian
employs in Ireland could fall below 145 prior to September 2007.  Should such an
event occur, the full amount of the grants previously  received by Meridian will
need to be repaid  to IDA.  However,  management  currently  estimates  that any
impact on employment  levels related to a possible  change in the EU legislation
will not be realized until after September 2007, if ever.

     POSSIBLE LIMITATION ON TAX LOSS AND CREDIT CARRYFORWARDS

     We have  substantial  tax loss and credit  carryforwards  for U.S.  federal
income tax purposes.  As a result of the implementation of the exchange offer or
certain changes in the  composition of our  shareholder  population it is likely
that our ability to use such  carryforwards  (and certain other tax benefits) to
offset  future income or tax liability  will be severely  limited.  Based on our
current  projections,   such  a  limitation  would  significantly  increase  our
projected  future tax  liability if combined  with the  elimination  of interest
deductions  with  respect  to the new  senior  convertible  notes  issued in the
exchange offer.

     PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS ON 4.75% SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE NOTES

     On  November  26,  2006 the  Company  will be  required  to pay in full the
remaining  outstanding  principal amount of its 4.75%  Subordinated  Convertible
Notes. That amount is approximately $0.5 million.

     INTEREST PAYMENTS ON 11% SENIOR NOTES

     On September  15, 2006,  the Company will be required to pay  approximately
$2.8 million in interest on its 11% Senior Notes.


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Some  of  the  information  in  this  Form  10-Q  contains  forward-looking
statements  which  look  forward  in time  and  involve  substantial  risks  and
uncertainties  including,   without  limitation,  (1)  statements  that  contain
projections  of the Company's  future  results of operations or of the Company's
financial  condition,  (2)  statements  regarding  the adequacy of the Company's
current  working capital and other  available  sources of funds,  (3) statements


                                       27


regarding goals and plans for the future, (4) statements regarding the potential
impact and outcome of the Company's exploration of strategic alternatives,  (5),
expectations  regarding future accounts payable and Meridian revenue trends, (6)
statements  regarding the impact of potential regulatory changes. All statements
that cannot be assessed  until the occurrence of a future event or events should
be considered  forward-looking.  These statements are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and
can be identified  by the use of  forward-looking  words such as "may,"  "will,"
"expect,"  "anticipate,"  "believe," "estimate" and "continue" or similar words.
Risks  and  uncertainties  that may  potentially  impact  these  forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, the following:

o    In four of the  five  annual  periods  ended  December  31,  2005,  we have
     incurred  significant  losses and we have not  generated  enough  cash from
     operations to finance our business.

o    Our current  projections  reflect that our core accounts  payable  recovery
     audit business will continue to decline.

o    We depend on our largest  clients  for  significant  revenues,  so losing a
     major client could adversely affect our revenues.

o    Client and client  vendor  bankruptcies  and financial  difficulties  could
     reduce our earnings.

o    Our strategic business initiatives may not be successful.

o    Our failure to retain the services of key members of management  and highly
     skilled personnel could adversely impact our continued success.

o    We rely on international operations for significant revenues.

o    The market for providing  disbursement audit services to commercial clients
     in the U.S. is rapidly declining.

o    We  may  not be  able  to  continue  to  compete  successfully  with  other
     businesses  offering  recovery audit  services,  including  client internal
     recovery audit departments.

o    We have significant  indebtedness and fixed obligations,  and our operating
     cash flow may not be sufficient to satisfy these obligations.

o    Our senior credit facility contains financial performance requirements, and
     there  can  be  no  guarantee  that  we  will  be  able  to  satisfy  those
     requirements.

o    Proposed  legislation  by the  European  Union,  if  enacted  as  currently
     drafted, will have a materially adverse impact on Meridian's operations.

o    Meridian's revenue  recognition policy causes its revenues to vary markedly
     from period to period.

o    Other risk  factors  detailed  in the  Company's  Securities  and  Exchange
     Commission  filings,  including the Company's  Form 10-K for the year ended
     December 31, 2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission on
     March 16, 2005.

     There  may be  events  in the  future,  however,  that the  Company  cannot
accurately  predict  or over which the  Company  has no  control.  The risks and
uncertainties listed in this section, as well as any cautionary language in this
Form 10-Q,  provide examples of risks,  uncertainties  and events that may cause
our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our
forward-looking  statements.  You should be aware that the  occurrence of any of
the events denoted above as risks and  uncertainties  and elsewhere in this Form
10-Q could have a material adverse effect on our business,  financial  condition
and results of operations


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     Foreign  Currency  Market Risk. Our functional  currency is the U.S. dollar
although we transact business in various foreign locations and currencies.  As a
result, our financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as
changes in foreign currency  exchange rates, or weak economic  conditions in the
foreign markets in which we provide services.  Our operating results are exposed
to changes in exchange  rates between the U.S.  dollar and the currencies of the
other countries in which we operate.  When the U.S. dollar  strengthens  against
other currencies,  the value of nonfunctional currency revenues decreases.  When
the U.S. dollar weakens,  the functional  currency amount of revenues increases.
Overall,  we are a net receiver of currencies other than the U.S. dollar and, as
such,  benefit from a weaker dollar.  We are therefore  adversely  affected by a
stronger dollar relative to major currencies worldwide.

     Interest Rate Risk.  Our interest  income and expense are most sensitive to
changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. In this regard,  changes in
U.S.  interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash  equivalents as well
as interest  paid on our debt.  At March 31, 2006,  we had a $25.0  million term


                                       28


loan outstanding  which is variable-rate  debt. The interest on the term loan is
based on a floating rate equal to the reserve adjusted London inter-bank offered
rate,  or LIBOR,  plus 8.5% (or, at our option,  a published  prime lending rate
plus 5.5%). A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would result
in an approximate  $0.3 million change in annual interest  expense.  As of March
31, 2006, the Company had $15.0 million  available for revolving loans under the
new senior credit facility.  No borrowings were outstanding under this revolving
portion of the new credit  facility at March 31, 2006.  The interest rate on any
outstanding  balances on the revolving  credit loan is based on LIBOR plus 3.75%
(or, at our option,  a published  prime lending rate plus 1.0%).  Although there
were no  borrowings  outstanding  under  the  revolving  portion  of the  credit
facility at March 31, 2006, assuming $15.0 million of borrowings, a hypothetical
100 basis point  change in interest  rates would result in an  approximate  $0.2
million change in annual interest expense.

     Derivative  Instruments.  As a  multi-national  company,  the Company faces
risks related to foreign currency fluctuations on its  foreign-denominated  cash
flows,  net earnings,  new  investments and large foreign  currency  denominated
transactions.  The Company uses derivative  financial  instruments  from time to
time to manage foreign currency risks. The use of financial instruments modifies
the  exposure of these risks with the intent to reduce the risk to the  Company.
The Company does not use financial instruments for trading purposes, nor does it
use  leveraged  financial  instruments.  The  Company  did  not  have  any  such
derivative financial  instruments  outstanding as of March 31, 2006 and December
31, 2005.


ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company's management conducted an evaluation, with the participation of
its  Chairman,  President  and  Chief  Executive  Officer  (CEO)  and its  Chief
Financial  Officer  (CFO),  of the  effectiveness  of the  Company's  disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)  under the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (the  "Exchange  Act"))  as of the end of the
period  covered  by  this  Quarterly  Report  on  Form  10-Q.  Based  upon  that
evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures  were not  effective in  reporting,  on a timely  basis,  information
required to be  disclosed  by the  Company in the  reports the Company  files or
submits under the Exchange Act, because of unremediated  material  weaknesses in
its internal  control over financial  reporting,  as described in Item 9A of the
Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

     There were no changes in internal  control over financial  reporting during
the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2006  that  have  materially  affected,  or are
reasonably  likely to  materially  affect the  Company's  internal  control over
financial  reporting.  The material  weaknesses reported in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 2005 related to ineffective
internal controls over revenue recognition and company level controls, including
the  expertise of the  accounting  and finance  staff.  During the quarter ended
March 31, 2006,  management made some progress in remediating certain aspects of
the  weaknesses  reported,  specifically  in the hiring and training of affected
personnel.  However,  other aspects of the weaknesses  reported are still in the
remediation process and appear to continue to constitute material weaknesses.
