NOTES TO COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited combined condensed 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
notes required by generally accepted accounting principles 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. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
notes thereto included in Golden Bear Golf, Inc.'s ("Golden Bear" or the
"Company") Registration Statement on Form S-1 and amendments thereto as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The results of operations and cash flows for the three and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations
or cash flows which may be reported for the remainder of 1996.
Golden Bear was formed on June 7, 1996 to enter into an exchange agreement which
was consummated on August 1, 1996 upon the closing of an initial public offering
of Golden Bear's Class A Common Stock. Parties to the plan of reorganization
included, among others, Golden Bear's affiliates, Golden Bear Golf Centers,
Inc.("Golf Centers"), Paragon Golf Construction, Inc. ("Paragon") (collectively,
the "Companies") and Golden Bear International, Inc. ("GBI"). Pursuant to the
exchange agreement, Golden Bear acquired all of the outstanding common stock of
the Companies in exchange for an aggregate of 1,668,000 shares of its Class A
and Class B Common Stock. In addition, Golden Bear acquired certain assets and
assumed certain liabilities of GBI ("GBI Carveout") in exchange for 1,332,000
shares of Class B Common Stock. The transaction was accounted for on an
historical cost basis in a manner similar to a pooling of interests as Golden
Bear and the Companies had common stockholders and management. Therefore, the
financial statements of Golden Bear and the Companies are presented in a
combined format. In connection with the initial public offering, the Company had
incurred offering costs of approximately $0.6 million (included in other assets)
at June 30, 1996. These costs have now been netted against the proceeds of the
initial public offering.
PRO FORMA INCOME TAXES
Prior to the reorganization, Golf Centers and Paragon were S Corporations for
Federal income tax reporting purposes. GBI Carveout was a division of GBI, an S
Corporation. Foreign tax provision represents taxes paid or accrued on the
Companies' foreign operations as foreign jurisdictions do not recognize the S
Corporation status.
The pro forma income tax provision (benefit) is included in the combined
condensed statements of operations and is presented for informational purposes
as if the domestic operations of the Companies were C Corporations during the
periods presented. Generally, foreign taxes paid will serve to reduce the
Companies' U.S. tax obligation. Pro forma taxes have been presented to reflect
this benefit and to reduce the historical effective tax rate to an overall
estimated effective rate of approximately 39%.

In June 1996, Jack Nicklaus advanced to the Company $1.625 million and the
Company issued a note payable to Jack Nicklaus for such amount. The proceeds
were used to fund the Cool Springs Golf Center acquisition (see Note 7). The
note payable was repaid in full in August 1996 from the proceeds of the initial
public offering.
In April 1996, the Company incurred a capital lease obligation of approximately
$1.2 million in connection with the acquisition of McDain Golf Center (see Note
7).

4. ARBITRATION CLAIMS
In August 1995, Paragon brought an arbitration claim against a customer for
breach of contract. Paragon alleges it has properly completed the construction
relating to the renovation of the customer's golf course and is seeking final
payment of retainage and other amounts due, totaling $238,053. In addition,
Paragon is seeking additional damages of $144,820. Simultaneous to this claim of
arbitration, the customer filed a counterclaim of arbitration against Paragon
for alleged construction defects in the renovation of its golf course. The
customer is seeking damages in the amount of $750,000. The ultimate outcome of
this matter is not determinable at this time; accordingly no provision for loss
regarding this matter has been established at June 30, 1996.
5. OPERATIONS OF JNAI
The apparel licensing activities of the Company are conducted through Jack
Nicklaus Apparel International ("JNAI") and its various partnerships. The
Company serves as a 50% general partner and is generally entitled to receive 50%
to 66-2/3% of the cash distributions of the various partnerships' operations.
The Company's investment in JNAI is recorded on the equity method.

In June 1996, members of management and certain Nicklaus Family Members
purchased capital stock of Golf Centers for an aggregate price of $1.5 million.
The shares were sold to members of management for $0.6 million. The fair value
of the shares sold to management at the date of issuance was deemed to be the
assumed initial public offering price of $15 per share which resulted in the
recognition of compensation expense in the amount of $3 million.

7. ACQUISITIONS
On April 15, 1996, the Company entered into a long-term lease agreement with
McDain Golf Center of Monroeville (an existing golf practice and instruction
facility located in the greater Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area). The portion of
the long-term lease attributable to building and improvements has been accounted
for as a capital lease totaling approximately $1.2 million.
On June 17, 1996, the Company purchased Cool Springs Golf Center (an existing
golf practice and instruction facility located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) for
approximately $2.9 million. The fair value of the net assets acquired
(substantially all property and equipment) was approximately $2.6 million which
resulted in the recording of approximately $0.3 million of goodwill. The
goodwill is recorded in other assets at June 30, 1996 and is being amortized
over a term of 30 years.
The acquisition of these golf centers did not have a material effect on the
operations of the Company during the three-month and six-month periods ended
June 30, 1996. Additional information regarding these acquisitions and
prospective acquisitions is contained in the Company's S-1 filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On August 7, 1996, the Company consummated the acquisition of certain assets
utilized in connection with the Tom's River Golf Center (an existing golf
practice and instruction facility located in Tom's River, New Jersey) and the
lease of the related real property, in accordance with an agreement, dated as of
April 26, 1996, among the Company and First Sports Capital Development
Associates, Ltd., Inc. The lease is for a term of 20 years and may be extended
for two five-year terms. The purchase price for the assets was $1.9 million
dollars, paid in cash at the closing.
The purchase price for the assets was funded from the Company's working capital.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company for the three and six-month periods ended June 30,
1995 and 1996. This discussion supplements the detailed information presented in
the Combined Condensed Financial Statements and Notes thereto (which should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in
Golden Bear's filing on Form S-1 and amendments thereof) and is intended to
assist the reader in understanding the financial results and condition of the
Company.
OVERVIEW
The Company operates its business through three principal groups: the Golf
Division, the Construction Division and the Marketing Division. The Golf
Division owns, operates and licenses the Company's golf practice and instruction
facilities under the JACK NICKLAUS GOLF CENTER, JACK NICKLAUS ACADEMY OF GOLF
and GOLDEN BEAR GOLF CENTER brand names, is involved in the marketing of golf
course design services on behalf of designers, primarily Nicklaus Design, and
provides golf course management and consulting services throughout the world.
The Construction Division provides technical construction services in connection
with the construction and renovation of golf courses. The Marketing Division is
involved primarily in the licensing of NICKLAUS, JACK NICKLAUS and GOLDEN BEAR
branded products throughout the world, the operation of the NICKLAUS/FLICK GOLF
SCHOOLS and the generation of marketing fees related to Jack Nicklaus' personal
endorsements (which are reflected in the Company's statement of operations under
the heading related party commissions).
Consistent with the Company's strategy to increase its ownership and operation
of golf practice and instruction facilities, the Company recently entered into
purchase, lease and management agreements pursuant to which it commenced
operations of three existing golf practice and instruction facilities and has
entered into letter agreements or letters of intent with respect to the
acquisition or lease of four additional existing golf practice and instruction
facilities and two facilities under development. While there is no assurance
that any such additional facilities will be acquired, the Company is seeking to
acquire or develop a total of ten facilities during 1996 and an additional
twelve facilities by the end of 1997.
While there is no assurance that the Company will achieve continued growth, the
Company believes that its growth will continue as it pursues its business plan
to acquire additional golf practice and instruction facilities and to expand its
construction and licensing operations. The Company expects that 1996 will be a
transition year as it focuses its efforts on acquiring golf practice and
instruction facilities, invests in additional management information systems and
personnel to support its growth strategy and a new licensee commences its
activities with respect to certain of the Company's branded products. While
revenues in 1996 are expected to increase compared to 1995 as a consequence of
the contemplated acquisitions of golf practice and instruction facilities, the
costs associated with the foregoing items, the costs associated with such
acquisitions and the integration of the operations of the acquired facilities
into the Company and the costs associated with being a public company are
expected to result in decreased operating income for 1996 as compared to 1995.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED
WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased 9.8% over the
comparable period of 1995. The increase in total revenues was principally the
result of an increase in Construction Division revenues to $5.1 million in the
three months ended June 30, 1996 from $4.6 million in the comparable period of
1995, attributable primarily to an increase in the number of construction and
shaping projects in process. Golf Division revenues increased to $1.0 million in
the three months ended June 30, 1996, from $0.7 million in the comparable period
of 1995 due primarily to increased revenues from golf centers and academy fees
and royalties which was partly offset by a decrease in related party management
fees. The increase in revenues from golf centers and academy fees and royalties
was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of owned facilities
while the decrease in related party management fees resulted primarily from a
decrease in commissions associated with the collections of Nicklaus Design. The
Company's Marketing Division revenues remained relatively constant at
approximately $2.3 million and $2.4 million in the three months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively, despite a decrease of approximately $0.4 million in
golf instruction revenues during the same period. The decrease in golf
instruction revenues primarily resulted from the loss of a significant corporate
client during 1996.
The Company incurred a net operating loss for the three months ended June 30,
1996 due primarily to a one-time charge of $3.0 million associated with the
purchase of shares of Golf Centers by certain executives (see Note 6 of Notes to
Combined Condensed Financial Statements). Exclusive of the effect of the
one-time charge, operating income would have decreased approximately $0.5
million during the three-month period ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the
comparable period of 1995. Exclusive of the effect of the one-time charge,
operating income as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 5.1% in the
three months ended June 30, 1996 from 12.2% in the comparable period for 1995.
This decrease was primarily a result of the lower gross margin realized in the
Construction Division and a relative increase in operating costs. The gross
margin in the Construction Division was 12.4% in the three months ended June 30,
1996 compared to 17.0% for the comparable period of 1995 which primarily
resulted from the differing mix of jobs during those two periods. Operating
costs as a percentage of total revenues were 30.0% in the three months ended
June 30, 1996 as compared to 27.2% for the comparable period of 1995. The
increase in operating costs resulted primarily from additional expenses incurred
to support the expansion of the Company's business.
Corporate overhead, consisting primarily of corporate headquarters rent and
occupancy costs, as well as corporate management and employees, remained
relatively constant at approximately $0.9 million and $0.8 million in the three
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Management anticipates that
corporate overhead will increase due to planned systems upgrades and additions
to personnel as well as the increased costs associated with operating the
Company as a separate public company and the expansion of the Company's
business.
As S corporations, Golf Centers, Paragon and GBI have historically only paid
foreign income taxes and have not paid United States federal income taxes.
Because the Company will be a C corporation, a pro forma income tax expense
(benefit) has been included in the Company's combined condensed statements of
operations for informational purposes as if the relevant entities were C
corporations during the periods presented. The Company expects to recognize tax
credits for foreign taxes paid against its United States income tax obligation.
The calculation of pro forma income taxes does not reflect a benefit for the
compensation expense recorded in connection with the purchase of shares by
executives of the Company (as discussed above) as the deductibility of this item
for United States federal income tax purposes has not yet been determined. The
pro forma United States income taxes were based on an approximate effective rate
of 39%.

<PAGE>
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED
WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased 12.2% over the
comparable period of 1995. The increase in total revenues was principally the
result of an increase in Construction Division revenues to $7.2 million in the
six months ended June 30, 1996 from $6 million in the comparable period of 1995,
attributable primarily to an increase in the number of construction and shaping
projects in process. Golf Division revenues increased to $1.5 million in the six
months ended June 30, 1996, from $1 million in the comparable period of 1995 due
primarily to increased revenues from golf centers and academy fees and royalties
which was partly offset by a decrease in related party management fees. The
increase in revenues from golf centers and academy fees and royalties was
primarily attributable to an increase in the number of owned facilities while
the decrease in related party management fees resulted primarily from a decrease
in commissions associated with the collections of Nicklaus Design. The Company's
Marketing Division revenues remained relatively constant at approximately $4.2
million and $4.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, despite a decrease of approximately $0.5 million in golf
instruction revenues during the same period. The decrease in golf instruction
revenues primarily resulted from the loss of a significant corporate client
during 1996.
The Company incurred a net operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 1996
due primarily to a one-time charge of $3.0 million associated with the purchase
of shares of Golf Centers by certain executives (see Note 6 of Notes to Combined
Condensed Financial Statements). Exclusive of the effect of the one-time
expense, operating income would have decreased approximately $0.6 million during
the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the comparable period of
1995. Exclusive of the effect of the one-time charge, operating income as a
percentage of total revenues decreased to 3.6% in the six months ended June 30,
1996 from 9.4% in the comparable period for 1995. This decrease was primarily a
result of a relative increase in operating costs. Operating costs as a
percentage of total revenues were 35.2% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 as
compared to 32.3% for the comparable period of 1995. The increase in operating
costs resulted primarily from additional expenses incurred to support the
expansion of the Company's business. The gross margin in the Construction
Division remained relatively constant at approximately 15.7% and 15.8% in the
six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Corporate overhead, consisting primarily of corporate headquarters rent and
occupancy costs, as well as corporate management and employees, remained
relatively constant at approximately $1.7 million and $1.5 million in the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Management anticipates that
corporate overhead will increase due to planned systems upgrades and additions
to personnel as well as the increased costs associated with operating the
Company as a separate public company and the expansion of the Company's
business.
As S corporations, Golf Centers, Paragon and GBI have historically only paid
foreign income taxes and have not paid United States federal income taxes.
Because the Company will be a C corporation, a pro forma income tax expense
(benefit) has been included in the Company's combined condensed statements of
operations for informational purposes as if the relevant entities were C
corporations during the periods presented. The Company expects to recognize tax
credits for foreign taxes paid against its United States income tax obligation.
The calculation of pro forma income taxes does not reflect the compensation
expense recorded in connection with the purchase of shares by executives of the
Company (see discussion above). The pro forma United States income taxes were
based on an approximate effective rate of 39%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On August 1, 1996, Golden Bear closed an initial public offering of 2,484,000
shares of its Class A Common Stock and received net proceeds (after deducting
underwriting discounts and estimated offering costs) of approximately $36
million. Approximately $1.6 million of the proceeds were utilized to repay
indebtedness incurred to Jack Nicklaus in connection with the acquisition of the
Cool Springs Golf Center. The remaining proceeds will be used for working
capital and general corporate purposes including the acquisition and development
of golf practice and instruction facilities, additional advertising and
expansions of the Company's product development efforts, both domestically and
internationally.
Net cash used in operations was $199,732 during the six months ended June 30,
1996 compared to net cash provided by operations of $547,488 in the comparable
period of 1995. The decrease in net cash provided by (used in) operating
activities was primarily due to an increase in costs and estimated earnings in
excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and a decrease in accrued expenses
and other which were partly offset by increases in billings in excess of costs
and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts and a net decrease in due from
GBI. The changes in these balances are primarily attributable to the operations
of the Construction Division.
As further discussed in notes 3 and 7 of notes to combined condensed financial
statements, net property and equipment and notes payable increased primarily as
a result of certain acquisitions occurring during the second quarter of 1996.
These transactions are reflected on the combined condensed statement of cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996 as investing and financing
activities.
While there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts,
the Company is seeking to obtain a $10-$15 million line of credit from a bank or
other financial institution. The Company believes that the net proceeds of the
initial public offering, together with cash provided by operations, will be
sufficient to meet its operating needs and anticipated capital expenditures and
acquisition requirements through the first quarter of 1997. If the Company
obtains the line of credit it is seeking, the Company anticipates it will have
sufficient funds through 1997. Beyond such period, the Company will be required
to raise additional capital in order to pursue its planned acquisition and
expansion strategy.
CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS
Although substantially all of the Company's contracts are denominated in United
States dollars, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies relative to the
United States dollar impact the Company's results of operations. A substantial
portion of the revenues of the Company's overseas licensees are generated in
foreign currencies and, accordingly, fluctuations in the value of these
currencies relative to the United States dollar could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's profitability. Royalty payments received by the Company
relating to foreign licensing arrangements are generally based on the exchange
rate at the time of payment. In addition, the Company's construction contracts
are also denominated in United States dollars and, accordingly, the effective
cost to customers for construction services performed overseas will increase or
decrease as foreign currencies fluctuate relative to the United States dollar,
unless the Company changes its United States dollar prices to reflect the
fluctuations in currency. The Company does not currently engage in hedging
activities with respect to such currency fluctuations, but may do so in the
future.

INTRODUCTION TO
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
The following Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1996
and the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and for the year ended December 31, 1995 reflect
adjustments to Golden Bear Golf, Inc.'s ("Golden Bear" or the "Company")
historical financial position and results of operations to give effect to the
transactions discussed below as if such transactions had been consummated at
June 30, 1996 for the balance sheet purposes, or at the beginning of the period
presented for income statement purposes.
Golden Bear was formed on June 7, 1996 to enter into an exchange agreement which
was consummated on August 1, 1996 upon the closing of an initial public offering
of Golden Bear's Class A Common Stock. Parties to the plan of reorganization
included, among others, Golden Bear's affiliates, Golden Bear Golf Centers, Inc.
("Golf Centers"), Paragon Golf Construction, Inc. ("Paragon")collectively, the
"Companies") and Golden Bear International, Inc. ("GBI"). Pursuant to the
exchange agreement, Golden Bear acquired all of the outstanding common stock of
the Companies in exchange for an aggregate of 1,668,000 shares of its Class A
and Class B Common Stock. In addition, Golden Bear acquired certain assets and
assumed certain liabilities of GBI ("GBI Current")in exchange for 1,332,000
shares of Class B Common Stock. The transaction was accounted for on a
historical cost basis in a manner similar to a pooling of interests as Golden
Bear and the Companies have common stockholders and management.
The pro forma financial statements do not reflect the effect of expected
increases in levels of expenses as a result of an upgrade to Golden Bear's
management information systems, the addition of accounting personnel to
support its growth strategy and increased costs associated with operating the
Company as a separate public company. Such increases are not reflected because
they are not currently factually determinable or estimable.
The pro forma financial statements have been prepared by Golden Bear based, in
part, on the audited financial statements of certain of the businesses acquired
and to be acquired as required under the Securities Act, which financial
statements are included elsewhere in this report or in other filings of the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the unaudited
financial statements of other businesses acquired, which financial statements
are included elsewhere in this report or in other filings of the Company with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the unaudited financial statements
of other businesses acquired which financial statements are, in certain
circumstances, not included herein, adjusted where necessary, with respect to
pre-acquisition periods, to the basis of accounting used in Golden Bear's
historical financial statements. These pro forma financial statements are not
intended to be indicative of the results that would have occurred on the dates
indicated or which may be realized in the future.
Certain amounts in prior periods' financial statements have been reclassified.
BUSINESSES ACQUIRED
Subsequent to December 31, 1995, the Companies entered into agreements pursuant
to which it acquired three golf practice and instruction facilities, two by
purchase and the other pursuant to a long-term lease.
P-1
<PAGE>
MCDAIN GOLF CENTER-
On April 15, 1996, Golden Bear entered into a long-term lease agreement with
McDain Golf Center of Monroeville, a Pennsylvania limited partnership, for the
lease of an existing golf practice and instruction facility in the greater
Pittsburgh area and has begun operating the facility as a Golden Bear Golf
Center. The lease is for a term of twenty-nine years and calls for annual
payments of $325,000 with annual cost of living increases commencing after the
fifth year. The Company has been granted an option to purchase the leased
premises for $2,000,000 in 2001. The Company has not yet determined whether it
will acquire the leased premises pursuant to the option.
For financial statement purposes, the portion of the long-term lease
attributable to building and improvements is considered a capital lease as the
net present value of the future payments exceeds 90% of the fair value of the
properties.
COOL SPRINGS GOLF CENTER-
On June 17, 1996, the Company purchased an existing golf practice and
instruction facility on 40.833 acres of land in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
pursuant to purchase and sale agreements with Cool Springs, Inc. and William T.
Duckworth. The purchase price for the land and assets was $2.9 million.
TOM'S RIVER GOLF CENTER-
On August 7, 1996, the Company consummated the acquisition of certain assets
utilized in connection with the Tom's River Golf Center (an existing golf
practice and instruction facility located in Tom's River, New Jersey) and the
lease of the related real property, in accordance with an agreement, dated as of
April 26, 1996, among the Company and First Sports Capital Development
Associates, Ltd., Inc. The lease is for a term of 20 years and may be extended
for two five-year terms. The purchase price for the assets was $1.9 million
dollars, paid in cash at the closing. The purchase price for the assets was
funded from the Company's working capital.
