For the nine months ended March 31, 1997, the company reported net income of $11,934,000, equal to 80 cents per share, an increase of 32 percent from $9,029,000, or 61 cents per share, in the same period last year.

The company's staff increased by 225 during the third quarter and 630 for the nine months to a new total of 4,400, compared with 3,670 a year ago, most of them billable technical personnel.

"Our activity in Year 2000 conversions has increased, and we are positioned to assist our customers as this deadline approaches," said Frederick W. Lang, chairman and chief executive officer. The company manages several large contracts which require the services of both AiC technical employees and technical personnel from other firms. As the outsource manager, AiC is required to process billings from these other companies and also include them in its reported revenues; the third quarter total for these subcontractor billings was $25 million. Excluding these additional "pass-through" revenues, AiC's net margin for the quarter was 4.7 percent. Net income per share and average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1996, were restated for the effect of the 2-for-1 common stock split in the form of a stock dividend distributed Sept. 30, 1996.
