                           CD&L, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
    been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
    for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
    Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
    information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
    principles for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated
    balance sheet at December 31, 2001 has been derived from the audited
    financial statements at that date. In the opinion of management, all
    adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered
    necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
    the three months ended March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
    results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year
    ending December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated
    financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the CD&L, Inc. (the
    "Company" or "CD&L") Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

    Recently, the Company renegotiated certain covenants and terms of its
    revolving credit facility, senior subordinated notes and seller notes. This
    is further discussed in Notes 2 and 3. The Company's amended revolving
    credit facility with First Union Commercial Corporation ("First Union")
    expires on January 31, 2003. The Company has received a commitment letter
    from a financial institution for a senior secured credit facility that would
    replace the First Union facility. The Company is in the process of
    negotiating a definitive agreement for same. There can be no assurances that
    the Company will reach a definitive agreement with the new lender, nor that
    the Company will be able to meet its financial plan and projections, upon
    which the debt covenants of any new facility will be based.

(2) SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS:

    On March 31, 2002 CD&L and First Union modified an agreement entered into in
    July 1997, establishing a revolving credit facility (the "First Union
    Agreement"). The amendment extended the agreement until January 31, 2003,
    increased the standby letter of credit fee and reset the financial ratios
    and covenants that the Company must achieve throughout the term of the First
    Union Agreement. Credit availability is based on eligible amounts of
    accounts receivable, as defined, up to a maximum amount of $15,000,000 and
    is secured by substantially all of the assets, including certain cash
    balances, accounts receivable, equipment and leasehold improvements and
    general intangibles of the Company and its subsidiaries. During the three
    months ended March 31, 2002, the maximum borrowings outstanding under the
    First Union Agreement were approximately $168,000 and the outstanding
    borrowings as of March 31, 2002 were $0. As of March 31, 2002, the Company
    had borrowing ability of $980,000 under the First Union Agreement, after
    adjusting for restrictions related to outstanding Standby Letters of Credit
    of $6,470,230 and minimum availability requirements. Under the terms of the
    First Union Agreement, the Company is required to maintain certain financial
    ratios and comply with other financial conditions. At March 31, 2002 the
    Company was in compliance with all loan covenants of the First Union
    Agreement, as amended.

    The Company has received a commitment letter from a financial institution
    for a senior secured credit facility that would replace the First Union
    facility. The Company is in the process of negotiating a definitive
    agreement for same. There can be no assurances that the Company will reach a
    definitive agreement with the new lender, nor that the Company will be able
    to meet its financial plan and projections, upon which the debt covenants of
    any new facility will be based.


                                       6



(3) LONG-TERM DEBT:

    On January 29, 1999, the Company completed a $15,000,000 private placement
    of senior subordinated notes and warrants (the "Senior Notes") with three
    financial institutions. The Senior Notes originally bore interest at 12% per
    annum and are subordinate to all senior debt including the Company's credit
    facility with First Union. Under the terms of the Senior Notes, as amended,
    the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with
    other financial conditions for which the Company was in compliance as of
    March 31, 2002. The Senior Notes mature on January 29, 2006 and may be
    prepaid by the Company under certain circumstances. The warrants expire
    January 19, 2009 and are exercisable at any time prior to expiration at a
    price of $.001 per equivalent share of common stock for an aggregate of
    506,250 shares of the Company's stock, subject to additional adjustments.
    The Company has recorded the fair value of the warrants as a credit to
    additional paid-in-capital and a debt discount on the Senior Notes.

    Effective as of April 12, 2002, CD&L and the note holders modified the
    Senior Subordinated Loan Agreement (the "Senior Note Agreement") entered
    into on January 29, 1999. The Senior Note Agreement, as amended, increases
    the interest rate on the notes to 15% beginning April 1, 2002. The interest
    rate is reduced to 12% retroactively to April 1, 2002 contingent upon the
    Company meeting certain debt restructuring goals. Payments totaling $750,000
    are required to be repaid in 2002. Furthermore, as noted above, in order for
    the Company to achieve a retroactive interest rate reduction, it will be
    required to restructure its senior secured debt. This would require the
    Company to pay an additional $1,750,000 in 2002 to the Senior Note holders
    and an additional $750,000 in each of 2003, 2004 and 2005 in order to meet
    the restructuring goals. As the Company has not yet achieved the debt
    restructuring discussed in Note 2, the accompanying financial statements
    reflect the principal payment requirements under the current agreement.

(4) INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

    Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill
    and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"), substantially all of the
    Company's intangible assets will no longer be amortized and the Company is
    required to perform an annual impairment test for goodwill and intangible
    assets. SFAS 142 requires the Company to compare the fair value of the
    business unit to its carrying amount on an annual basis to determine if
    there is potential impairment. If the fair value of the business unit is
    less than its carrying value, an impairment loss would be recorded to the
    extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the business unit is less
    than the carrying value. The impairment test for intangible assets consists
    of comparing the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying amount.
    If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an
    impairment loss is recognized. Fair value for goodwill and intangible assets
    are determined based on discounted cash flows and appraised values. Pursuant
    to SFAS 142, intangible assets must be periodically tested for impairment
    and the new standard provides six months to complete the impairment review.
    The Company will complete such review during the quarter ended June 30,
    2002. Adoption of SFAS 142 increased earnings by approximately $177,000 for
    the three months ended March 31, 2002.

(5) NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM STOCKHOLDER:

    In February 1996, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company ("Liberty Mutual") filed
    an action against Securities Courier Corporation ("Securities"), a
    subsidiary of the Company, Mr. Vincent Brana, an employee of the Company,
    and certain other parties in the United States District Court for the
    Southern District of New York. Under the terms of its acquisition of
    Securities, the Company had certain rights to indemnification from Mr.
    Brana. In connection with the indemnification, Mr. Brana has entered into a
    Settlement Agreement and executed a Promissory Note in such amount as may be
    due for any defense costs or award arising out of this suit. Mr. Brana has
    agreed to repay the Company on December 1, 2002, together with interest
    calculated at a rate per annum equal to the rate charged the Company by its
    senior lender. Mr. Brana delivered 357,301 shares of CD&L common stock to
    the Company as collateral for the note. On September 8, 2000 the parties
    entered into a settlement agreement in which Securities and Mr. Brana agreed
    to pay Liberty Mutual $1,300,000. An initial payment of $650,000 was made by
    Securities on October 16, 2000, $325,000 plus interest at a rate of 10.5%
    per annum was paid in monthly installments ending July 1, 2001 and $325,000
    plus interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum is due in monthly installments
    ending July 1, 2002.



                                       7


    At March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 the Company had a receivable due
    from Mr. Brana totaling $2,800,000. As of December 31, 2000, considering the
    market value of the collateral and Mr. Brana's failure to update and provide
    satisfactory evidence to support his ability to pay the promissory note, the
    Company recorded a $2,500,000 reserve against the receivable. Recently, Mr.
    Brana has disputed his obligation to satisfy the amounts when they are due.

(6) LITIGATION:

    The Company is, from time to time, a party to litigation arising in the
    normal course of its business, most of which involves claims for personal
    injury and property damage incurred in connection with its same-day delivery
    operations. In connection therewith, the Company has recorded reserves of
    $575,000 as of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Management believes
    that none of these actions will have a material adverse effect on the
    consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

(7) INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE:

    Basic income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by
    dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted
    average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income
    (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution if certain securities are
    converted and also includes certain shares that are contingently issuable.
    Because of the Company's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2001,
    equivalent shares represented by 12,429 Stock Options and 505,668 Warrants
    would be anti-dilutive and therefore are not included in the loss per share
    calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2001.

    The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of
    diluted earnings per share because the exercise or conversion price was
    greater than the average market price of common shares:

    Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
    Results of Operations

    Overview

    The following discussion of the Company's results of operations and of its
    liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the
    condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the related
    notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this report.

    Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

    The Company is provided a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements
    contained in this report by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
    1995. The Company may discuss forward-looking information in this report
    such as its expectations for future business development, cost reduction
    programs, revenue growth and fuel, insurance and labor cost controls, as
    well as its liquidity and capital needs and its future prospects. These
    forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties that may
    cause the actual events or results to differ materially from those indicated
    by such forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties
    include, without limitation, the risk that the Company will be unable to
    continue growing revenue internally, or that the Company will be unable to
    price its services so as to increase its profit margins, or that the
    Company's cost reduction programs will fail to prevent further erosion of
    its profit margins, or that the Company will be unable to reduce its fuel,
    insurance and labor costs, or that the Company will be unable to achieve the
    other cost savings or additional profits for forward quarters contemplated
    by the Company's business management strategy, or that the Company will be
    unable to continue to meet its financial covenants under existing credit
    lines or otherwise have adequate cash flow from operations or credit
    facilities to support its operations and revenue growth, or that the slowing
    economy will reduce demand for the Company's services or other risks
    specified in the Company's 2001 Report on Form 10-K and other SEC filings.

    Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to the Three Months Ended March
    31, 2001

    Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2002 decreased by $1.5 million,
    or 3.7%, to $38.5 million from $40.0 million for the three months ended
    March 31, 2001. The decrease included approximately $2.5 million in revenue
    lost due to the sale of the Company's Mid-West Region operations on June 14,
    2001. After adjusting for the sale, revenue increased by approximately $1.0
    million due to the start-up of several distribution contracts during 2001.

    Cost of revenue decreased by $0.9 million, or 2.6%, to $30.6 million for the
    three months ended March 31, 2002 from $31.5 million for the three months
    ended March 31, 2001. Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31,
    2002 represents 79.5% of revenues as compared to 78.5% for the same period
    in 2001. The decrease in cost of revenue included approximately $2.0 million
    in cost of revenue eliminated due to the sale of the Company's Mid-West
    Region operations on June 14, 2001. After adjusting for the sale, cost of
    revenue increased by approximately $1.1 million due primarily to an increase
    in labor costs as compared to the same period in 2001. The increased labor
    costs in the Company's New York City operations, as a percentage of revenue,
    were partially attributable to the economic decline that occurred in New
    York City as a result of the September 11, 2001 events.

    Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased by $0.2
    million, or 3.5%, to $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002
    from $7.2 million for the same period in 2001. Stated as a percentage of
    revenue, SG&A was flat at 18.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2002
    and 2001. SG&A in 2001 included approximately $0.4 million in SG&A
    eliminated due to the sale of the Company's Mid-West Region operations on
    June 14, 2001. After adjusting for the sale, SG&A increased by approximately
    $0.2 million due primarily to increased insurance costs, partially offset by
    reductions in professional and consulting fees.

    Depreciation and amortization decreased by $0.4 million, or 52.2%, to $0.3
    million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $0.7 million for the
    same period in 2001. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
    No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"), substantially
    all of the Company's intangible assets will no longer be amortized and the
    Company is required to perform an annual impairment test for goodwill and
    intangible assets. SFAS 142 requires the Company to compare the fair value
    of the business unit to its carrying amount on an annual basis to determine
    if there is potential impairment. If the fair value of the business unit is
    less than its carrying value, an impairment loss would be recorded to the
    extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the business unit is less
    than the carrying value. The impairment test for intangible assets consists
    of comparing the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying amount.
    If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an
    impairment loss is recognized. Fair value for goodwill and intangible assets
    are determined based on discounted cash flows and appraised values. Pursuant
    to SFAS 142, intangible assets must be periodically tested for impairment
    and the new standard provides six months to complete the impairment review.
    The Company will complete such review during the quarter ended June 30,
    2002. Adoption of SFAS 142 increased earnings by approximately $177,000 for
    the three months ended March 31, 2002.

    As a result of the factors discussed above, operating income decreased
    slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the same
    period in 2001.

    Net income (loss) improved slightly for the three months ended March 31,
    2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. This was primarily due to the
    factors discussed above and similar interest expense and other income for
    the three months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the same period in
    2001.


                                       10


    Liquidity and Capital Resources

    The Company's working capital increased by $132,000 from $4,923,000 as of
    December 31, 2001 to $5,055,000 as of March 31, 2002. The increase is a
    result of cash generated from operations partially offset by payments of
    long-term debt. Cash and cash equivalents increased $179,000 to $1,344,000
    as of March 31, 2002. Cash of $866,000 was provided from operations and
    $21,000 was provided by investing activities, while $708,000 was used by net
    financing activities to pay down debt. Capital expenditures amounted to
    $25,000 and $107,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,
    respectively. These expenditures primarily upgraded and expanded computer
    system capability and expanded and improved Company facilities in the
    ordinary course of business.

    During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the maximum borrowings
    outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility were approximately
    $168,000 and the outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2002 were $0. The
    Company also had $13,500,000 in principal outstanding under its Senior Notes
    ($12,807,000 net of unamortized discount). The Company also had $498,000 of
    capital lease obligations and various equipment notes, $102,000 of debt
    related to litigation settlements and $6,480,000 of seller financed debt. As
    of March 31, 2002, the Company had borrowing ability of $980,000 under the
    revolving credit facility, after adjusting for restrictions related to
    outstanding Standby Letters of Credit of $6,470,230 and minimum availability
    requirements.

    Management believes that cash flows from operations and its borrowing
    capacity (see Notes 2 and 3 of the accompanying financial statements) are
    sufficient to support the Company's operations and general business and
    capital liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.

    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

    CD&L is exposed to the effect of changing interest rates. At March 31, 2002,
    the Company's debt consisted of approximately $19,887,000 of fixed rate debt
    with a weighted average interest rate of 11.5% and $0 of variable rate debt
    with a weighted average interest rate of 5.0%. The amount of variable rate
    debt fluctuates during the year based upon CD&L's cash requirements. If
    interest rates on variable rate debt were to increase by 50 basis points
    (one-tenth of the rate at March 31, 2002), the Company's results of
    operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2002
    would not be impacted as there were minimal amounts of variable rate debt
    outstanding during the period.
