  Warwick, RI: Network Six, Inc. reported contract revenue earned for the
  quarter ending March 31, 1999 of $2,688,400, up 21%, or $466,782, from
  $2,221,618 the same period a year ago.  Net income was $257,198, or $.23 per
  share, up 83%, or $116,733, from the same period a year ago when it reported
  net income of $140,465, or $.08 per share.
  
  Kenneth C. Kirsch, President and CEO commented, "We had an excellent first
  quarter. Our growth in revenues from the same period a year ago was primarily
  due to increased work related to welfare reform for the State of Rhode
  Island.  We also increased our private sector systems development work and
  information technology consulting activities.  We are very pleased with the
  progress of our marketing and new business development initiatives."
  
  Dorothy Cipolla, CFO and Treasurer commented, "Gross profit, as a percentage of 
  contract revenue earned, improved to 41%, compared to 35% a year ago.  Net 
  income, as a percentage of contract revenue earned, improved to 9.6 % compared 
  to 6.3% a year earlier.  We continue to operate the Company on cash flows from 
  operations.  This quarter marks our eight consecutive quarter of profitability."

  Warwick, RI: Network Six, Inc. reported contract revenue earned for the
  quarter ending March 31, 1999 of $2,688,400, up 21%, or $466,782, from
  $2,221,618 the same period a year ago.  Net income was $257,198, or $.23 per
  share, up 83%, or $116,733, from the same period a year ago when it reported
  net income of $140,465, or $.08 per share.
  
  Kenneth C. Kirsch, President and CEO commented, "We had an excellent first
  quarter. Our growth in revenues from the same period a year ago was primarily
  due to increased work related to welfare reform for the State of Rhode
  Island.  We also increased our private sector systems development work and
  information technology consulting activities.  We are very pleased with the
  progress of our marketing and new business development initiatives."
  
  Dorothy Cipolla, CFO and Treasurer commented, "Gross profit, as a percentage of 
  contract revenue earned, improved to 41%, compared to 35% a year ago.  Net 
  income, as a percentage of contract revenue earned, improved to 9.6 % compared 
  to 6.3% a year earlier.  We continue to operate the Company on cash flows from 
  operations.  This quarter marks our eight consecutive quarter of profitability."
