                      NUTRITION MANAGEMENT SERVICES COMPANY

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                December 31, 2003

1.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The  accompanying   unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  were
        prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
        interim  financial  information for quarterly  reports on Form 10-Q and,
        therefore,  do not include all of the information and footnotes required
        by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for  complete  financial
        statements.  However, all adjustments that, in the opinion of management
        are necessary for fair  presentation of the financial  statements,  have
        been  included.  The  results  of  operations  for the  interim  periods
        presented  are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results  that may be
        expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2004.  The financial
        information  presented  should be read in conjunction with the Company's
        financial statements that were filed under Form 10-K.

2.      NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150,  "Accounting for Certain
        Financial  Instruments  with  Characteristics  of both  Liabilities  and
        Equity"  ("SFAS 150").  SFAS 150 clarifies  the  accounting  for certain
        financial  instruments  that,  under  previous  guidance,  issuers could
        account  for as equity.  SFAS 150  requires  that those  instruments  be
        classified as liabilities in statements of financial position.  SFAS 150
        is  effective  for all  financial  instruments  entered into or modified
        after May 31, 2003,  and  otherwise is effective at the beginning of the
        first  interim  period  beginning  after  June 15,  2003.  To date,  the
        adoption of this  interpretation did not have an effect on the Company's
        financial position or results of operations.

        In  April  2003,  the FASB  issued  Statement  No.  149,  "Amendment  of
        Statement 133 on Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities" ("SFAS
        149").  SFAS  149  amends  SFAS  No.  133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
        Instruments and Hedging Activities" to clarify the financial  accounting
        and reporting for derivative  instruments and hedging  activities.  SFAS
        149 is intended to improve financial  reporting by requiring  comparable
        accounting  methods for similar  contracts.  SFAS 149 is  effective  for
        contracts  entered into or modified  subsequent  to June 30,  2003.  The
        requirements of SFAS 149 do not affect the Company's current  accounting
        for derivative instruments or hedging activities;  therefore,  it has no
        effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

                      NUTRITION MANAGEMENT SERVICES COMPANY

        NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

                                December 31, 2003

2.      NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - CONTINUED

        In January  2003 the FASB  issued  FIN 46,  "Consolidation  of  Variable
        Interest  Entities"  ("FIN  46").  This   interpretation  of  Accounting
        Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," addresses
        consolidation  by  business  enterprises  of certain  variable  interest
        entities where there is a controlling  financial  interest in a variable
        interest entity or where the variable  interest does not have sufficient
        equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated
        financial support from other parities. The interpretation applies in the
        first  year or interim  period  beginning  after  January  31,  2003 and
        applies  in the first year or interim  period  beginning  after June 15,
        2003 to  variable  interest  entities  in  which an  enterprise  holds a
        variable  interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company
        will apply the consolidation  requirement of FIN 46 in future periods if
        the Company should own any interest in any variable interest entity.

3.      EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

        Earnings  per common  share  amounts  are based on the  weighted-average
        number of shares of common  stock  outstanding  during the three and six
        month  periods  ending  December  31, 2003 and 2002.  Stock  options and
        warrants  did not impact  earnings  per share  each  period as they were
        anti-dilutive.

4.      LITIGATION

        On February  7, 2001,  NMSC filed a suit  against a major  client in the
        Court of Common Pleas in Chester County,  PA. This suit has subsequently
        been  removed  to the  United  States  District  Court  for the  Eastern
        District of Pennsylvania.  In the lawsuit, NMSC has made various claims,
        including   among  others  a  claim  that  the  client   failed  to  pay
        approximately  $2.1 million in invoiced amounts, a claim that the client
        failed to pay  approximately  $1 million in other amounts owing, a claim
        for reimbursement for start up costs in an amount in excess of $400,000,
        a claim for over $2 million in lost profits (or, alternatively,  a claim
        for  reimbursement  for over $300,000 in credits  issued in exchange for
        the promise to extend the arrangement),  a claim in the nature of treble
        damages  and  counsel  fees,  and other  claims.  The client has filed a
        counterclaim  which the  Company is  contesting  as part of the  overall
        proceedings.  Although it is not possible to predict with  certainty the
        outcome of these  unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss
        or recovery,  the Company  believes these  unresolved legal actions will
        not have a material adverse effect on its financial  position or results
        of operations.

4.      LITIGATION - CONTINUED

        In addition to the litigation described above, the Company is exposed to
        asserted  and  unasserted  claims.  In the  opinion of  management,  the
        resolution of these matters will not have a material  adverse  effect on
        the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

5.      BUSINESS SEGMENTS

        The  Company  follows  the  disclosure   provisions  of  SFAS  No.  131,
        Disclosures  about  Segments of an Enterprise  and Related  Information.
        This management approach focuses on internal financial  information that
        is  used by  management  to  assess  performance  and to make  operating
        decisions.  SFAS  No.  131 also  requires  disclosures  about  products,
        services,  geographic  areas, and major customers.  The adoption of SFAS
        No.  131  had no  effect  on the  Company's  results  of  operations  or
        financial position.

        The Company's  reportable  segments are (1) food service  management and
        (2)  training  and  conference   center.  The  Company  reports  segment
        performance  on an after tax basis.  Deferred taxes are not allocated to
        segments.  The management  accounting policies and processes utilized in
        compiling  segment  financial  information  are highly  subjective  and,
        unlike financial  accounting,  are not based on  authoritative  guidance
        similar to accounting principals generally accepted in the United States
        of America.  As a result,  reported  segment results are not necessarily
        comparable with similar information reported by other similar companies.

                                                      Food Service         Training and

6.      REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

        In February 2001, the Company  executed a loan agreement with a bank for
        a  revolving  credit and two  irrevocable  letters  of credit  issued in
        conjunction with the issuance of the Industrial Revenue Bonds,  totaling
        $4,000,000 and  $3,065,000,  respectively.  In March 2003, the revolving
        credit was  extended  from March 31, 2004 to  December  31, 2004 and the
        letters of credit are available for four years with annual renewals.  At
        June 30, 2003, the Company had available approximately  $1,494,108 under
        the revolving  credit.  Advances under the revolving credit are used for
        working capital purposes.

        These credit agreements contain covenants that include the submission of
        specified  financial   information  and  the  maintenance  of  insurance
        coverage  for the  pledged  assets  during  the term of the  loans.  The
        covenants  also  include the  maintenance  of a certain  fixed  coverage
        ratio, total liabilities to consolidated tangible net worth, and minimum
        working  capital.   Compensating  balances  required  for  these  credit
        agreements totaled $655,102 as of June 30, 2003.

        At June 30, 2003 the Company was not in compliance with these covenants.
        On  October  20,  2003,  the  Company  entered  into an  amended  credit
        agreement whereby the non-compliance at June 30, 2003 was waived and new
        financial covenants were negotiated through June 30, 2004, which reflect
        the Company's current operating projections. As a condition of obtaining
        said waivers and amendments,  the Loan Facility availability was reduced
        from  $4,000,000  to  $3,500,000  and  $500,000  was  placed  in a  cash
        collateral  account and  pledged as  additional  collateral  against the
        revolver  note.

        The maturity date of the revolving  credit faciltiy has been extended to
        March 31, 2005.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

            The following  discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

            This  Form  10-Q  contains  forward-looking  statements  within  the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E
of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as amended,  that are intended to be
covered by the safe harbors  created  thereby.  Investors are cautioned that all
forward-looking  statements  involve risks and  uncertainty,  including  without
limitation,  the  adequacy  of the  Company's  cash  from  operations,  existing
balances and  available  credit line.  Although  the Company  believes  that the
assumptions  underlying  the  forward-looking  statements  contained  herein are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, there can
be no assurance that the  forward-looking  statements included in this Form 10-Q
will prove to be accurate.  Factors  that could cause  actual  results to differ
from the results discussed in the forward-looking  statements  include,  but are
not limited to, the outcome of the Company's litigation discussed under Item 4 -
Litigation.   In   light   of   significant   uncertainties   inherent   in  the
forward-looking  statements  included herein,  the inclusion of such information
should not be regarded as a  representation  by the Company or any other  person
that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

            The discussion  and analysis of our financial  condition and results
of operations are based upon the Company's  consolidated  financial  statements,
which have been  prepared in accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally
accepted in the United States of America.  The  preparation  of these  financial
statements  requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amount of assets and  liabilities,  revenues and expenses,  and related
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the Company's
financial  statements.  Actual  results  may differ from these  estimates  under
different assumptions or conditions.

            Critical   accounting   policies  are  defined  as  those  that  are
reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in
materially  different  results under different  assumptions and conditions.  The
Company believes that its critical  accounting  policies include those described
below.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

            Revenue is generated primarily from fees for food service management
at  continuing  care  and  health  care  facilities  and  the  Collegeville  Inn
restaurant.   Revenue  is  recognized  when  services  are  performed.   Ongoing
assessments of the credit worthiness of customers provide the Company reasonable
assurance of collectibility upon performance of services.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (continued)

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

            The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and
adjusts credit limits based on payment history and the customer's current credit
worthiness,  as determined by a review of their current credit information.  The
Company  continuously  monitors  collections and payments from its customers and
maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based on historical experience
and any specific  customer  collection  issues that have been identified.  While
such credit losses have historically been within the Company's  expectations and
the provisions  established,  the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue
to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS EXCLUDING GOODWILL

            The Company  evaluates  the  carrying  value of  long-lived  assets,
including   intangible   assets  subject  to   amortization,   when  events  and
circumstances  warrant such a review. The carrying value of long-lived assets is
considered  impaired  when the  anticipated  undiscounted  cash  flows from such
assets are less than their carrying  value.  In that event, a loss is recognized
equal to the amount by which the  carrying  value  exceeds the fair value of the
long-lived assets. The Company  periodically  reviews the appropriateness of the
estimated useful lives of its long-lived assets.

INCOME TAX ACCOUNTING

            The Company  determines  its  provision  for income  taxes using the
asset  and  liability  method.  Under  this  method,  deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities  are recognized for the future tax effects of temporary  differences
of existing assets and liabilities  and their  respective tax bases.  Future tax
benefits of tax loss and credit  carryforwards  also are  recognized as deferred
tax assets.  Deferred  tax assets are reduced by a  valuation  allowance  to the
extent  the  Company  concludes  there  is  uncertainty  as  to  their  ultimate
realization.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates in effect for the year in which those  temporary  differences are expected
to be  recovered  or settled.  The effect on  deferred  taxes of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that the change is enacted.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

            Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 were $7,175,557, an
increase  of  $8,904  or  .1%  compared  to  revenues  of  $7,166,653   for  the
corresponding  quarter  last  year.  Revenues  for the six  month  period  ended
December 31, 2003 were  $13,882,411,  a decrease of $540,642 or 3.9% compared to
the corresponding period in 2002. This change is primarily due to the net impact
of revenues from lost contracts versus revenues from new contracts.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (continued)

            Costs  of  operations  for  the  current  quarter  were  $5,836,000,
compared  to  $5,948,673  for similar  expenses in the same period last year,  a
decrease of $112,673 or 1.9%.  For the six month period ended December 31, 2003,
cost of operations were $11,229,520, compared to $11,892,653 for the same period
last year, a decrease of $663,133 or 5.9% compared to the  corresponding  period
in 2002.  This decrease in cost of services is due to lower revenues  during the
six month  period  partially  offset by  inflationary  price,  wage and  expense
increases.

            Gross Profit for the quarter was $1,339,557, compared to $1,217,980,
an increase of $121,577 or 9.0%.  For the six month  period  ended  December 31,
2003, gross profit was $2,652,891  versus  $2,530,400 an increase of $122,491 or
4.6%. These increases are due to the cancellation of non performing contracts.

            General and administrative  expenses for the quarter were $1,190,626
or 16.6% of  revenue,  compared to  $1,236,910  or 17.3% of revenue for the same
quarter  last year,  a  decrease  of  $46,284.  For the six month  period  ended
December 31, 2003 general and administrative  expenses were $2,367,466  compared
to $2,260,433 for the  corresponding  period last year, an increase of $107,033.
The  increase  for the six month  period  versus the prior year is due to higher
fixed costs within the general and administrative expenses in the first quarter.

            Provision for doubtful accounts for the quarter was $60,000 compared
to $7,262 for the  corresponding  quarter  last year.  For the six month  period
ended December 31, 2003 provision for doubtful accounts was $120,000 compared to
$192,262 for the same period last year. The increase in the current quarter is a
result of a cash recovery of $141,738 of accounts receivable previously reserved
as uncollectible, being utilized to increase the allowance for doubtful accounts
in the 2002 quarter.  For the six month period lower sales volume contributed to
the decrease.

            Interest expense for the quarter totaled $47,441 compared to $50,395
for the same period last year. For the six month period ended December 31, 2003,
interest  expense was $92,624  versus  $104,459 in the  corresponding  period in
2002.  The  decrease  in  interest  expense  is a  result  of the  repayment  of
borrowings as well as a reduction in interest rates.

            For the  reasons  stated  above net loss after taxes for the quarter
ended  December  31,  2003  was  ($116,649)   compared  to  ($282,217)  for  the
corresponding  quarter last year. Net loss per share for the current quarter was
$0.04 compared to net loss per share of $0.10 for the corresponding quarter last
year.

            Net loss for the six month period was ($242,605)  versus  ($457,162)
for the corresponding  period last year. Net loss per share was ($0.08) compared
to net loss per share of ($0.16) for the same period last year.

                                   (continued)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

            At December 31, 2003, the Company had working capital of $1,920,857.

            OPERATING ACTIVITIES.  Cash consumed in operations for the six month
period  ended  December  31,  2003 was  $681,717  compared  to cash  provided by
operations of $846,614 for the six months ended  December 31, 2002.  The current
period's activity is primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable.

            INVESTING ACTIVITIES.  Investing activities consumed $50,774 in cash
in the current  period  compared to $55,777 in cash  provided in the same period
last year.

            FINANCING  ACTIVITIES.  Current period financing activities provided
$135,144 in cash compared to $404,091 consumed in the same period last year. The
change is attributable to $1,869,856 of debt repayments  offset by $2,005,000 of
debt proceeds.

            CAPITAL  RESOURCES.  The Company has certain credit  facilities with
its bank including a revolving  credit of  $3,500,000.  At December 31, 2003 the
Company had $534,078 available under its revolving credit facility.  The Company
issued two series of Industrial  Bonds totaling  $3,560,548 in December of 1996.
The outstanding  balance on the bonds was $2,675,000 as of December 31, 2003. On
October  20,  2003 the  Company  entered  into an  amended  agreement.  The Loan
Facility  contains  certain  covenants  that  include   maintenance  of  certain
financial  ratios,  maintenance of minimum levels of working  capital as well as
affirmative  and  negative  covenants.  The  Company  is  current  with  all its
obligations to its bank and on its bonds and has met all financial  covenants in
its loan documents.

            A substantial  portion of the Company's  revenues are dependent upon
the payment of its fees by customer  healthcare  facilities,  that, in turn, are
dependent  upon  third-party  payers  such as state  governments,  Medicare  and
Medicaid. Delays in payment by third-party payers,  particularly state and local
governments, may lead to delays in collection of accounts receivable.

            Based upon its present  plans,  management  believes that  operating
cash flow,  available  cash and available  credit  resources will be adequate to
make repayments of indebtedness  described  herein,  to meet the working capital
cash needs of the  Company and to meet  anticipated  capital  expenditure  needs
during the 12 months ending December 2004. In addition,  the Company anticipates
the sale of certain land adjacent to its Collegeville  facility that it believes
will net cash proceeds of not less than $2,000,000 during the fiscal year ending
June 30, 2004.

            In an effort to extend our current bank debt,  we may seek to access
the public equity market  whenever  conditions are favorable,  even if we do not
have an  immediate  need for  additional  capital at that time.  Any  additional
funding may result in  significant  dilution  and could  involve the issuance of
securities with rights, which are senior to those of existing  stockholders.  We
may  also  need  additional  funding  earlier  than  anticipated,  and our  cash
requirements,  in  general,  may vary  materially  from those now  planned,  for
reasons  including,  but not limited to,  competitive  advances  and higher than
anticipated revenues from operations.
