                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Board of Directors of
Valence Technology Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Valence
Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries as of January 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997
and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the ten
months ended January 31, 1998 and for year ended March 31, 1997. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in Hong Kong which do not differ in any material respect from those in the
United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Valence Technology Inc. and its
subsidiaries at January 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the ten months ended January 31, 1998 and
for the year ended March 31, 1997 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in Hong Kong (which do not differ in any material reports
from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America -
see note 2).

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.          ORGANIZATION AND CORPORATE AFFILIATION

            Valence Technology Inc. ("the Company") is a private limited company
            incorporated in British Virgin Islands. At January 31, 1998, the
            Company had the following subsidiaries, all of which are
            wholly-owned:

            Valence Semiconductor Design Limited ("VSD")                   Hong Kong
            VSD Electronics (Huiyang) Limited                              Other region of the
                                                                           People's Republic of
                                                                           China ("PRC")
            VSD Electronics Limited                                        Hong Kong
</TABLE>


            On May 22, 1997, the Company acquired for cash of HK$150,000 the 10%
            interest in LEC held by the minority shareholders. No goodwill arose
            on the acquisition.

            The Company is positioning itself to become a leading supplier of
            multimedia and consumer electronic components and finished products
            in Asia, in particular the PRC. The Company's business activities
            are carried out principally by three entities namely:

            O           VSD, which develops, manufactures (through outsourcing)
                        and markets application specific integrated circuits for
                        ASP and other consumer electronic product manufacturers;

            O           ASP, which develops and markets its own brand of
                        consumer and multimedia electronic components (e.g.
                        VCD-related products) by using VSD's design libraries;
                        and

            O           LEC, which markets and distributes international brand
                        multimedia and electronic components.

            The Company has offices in Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Shanghai and
            Chengdu, in the PRC. All administrative functions and research and
            development are performed in the Hong Kong and Shenzhen offices. The
            Company also leases warehousing facilities in Hong Kong, Wuhan,
            Shanghai, Huiyang and Changchun.

            In March 1997, North 22 Capital Partners 2 Inc., a company
            incorporated in British Virgin Islands acquired a 70% stake in the
            Company from Legend Holdings Limited, a company incorporated in Hong
            Kong and sold 15% to management reducing its interest to 55%. On
            March 2, 1998, SRS Labs, Inc., a United States corporation,
            completed the acquisition of all of the Company's outstanding
            shares.

2.          BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
            accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong ("HK GAAP").
            The financial statements include certain additional disclosures
            required under accounting principles generally accepted in the
            United States of America ("US GAAP"). For the year ended March 31,
            1997 and for the ten months ended January 31, 1998, there were no
            significant differences between the net assets and results of the
            Company in the financial statements prepared under US GAAP and HK
            GAAP.

            The Company and its subsidiaries have been operating at a loss since
            incorporation and currently principally rely on advances and loans
            provided by its existing and former shareholders. The Company's new
            owner, SRS Lab Inc, has given an undertaking to provide adequate
            funds for the Company and its subsidiaries to meet their liabilities
            as they fall due.


3.          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

            The principal accounting policies which have been adopted in
            preparing these financial statements and which conform with
            accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong are as
            follows:

            Basis of consolidation - The consolidated financial statements
            incorporate the financial statements of the Company and all its
            subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances
            have been eliminated on consolidation.

            Revenue recognition - The Company and its subsidiaries recognize
            revenue from the sales of products at the time products are shipped
            and title has passed. Income from the provision of design services
            is recognized when services are provided.

            Property and equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost
            less depreciation. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price
            and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its
            present working condition and location for its intended use.
            Expenditure incurred after the property has been put into operation,
            such as repairs and maintenance and overhaul costs, is normally
            charged to the statement of operations in the period in which it is
            incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that
            the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic
            benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the property, the
            expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the property.
            When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated
            depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements and any
            gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the
            statement of operations.

            Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of property and
            equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight line
            method, at 20% per annum.

3.          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

            Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net
            realizable value. Cost, which comprises material costs and, where
            applicable, subcontracting costs and these overheads that have been
            incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and
            condition, is calculated using the weighted average method. Net
            realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all
            further costs to completion and costs to be incurred in selling and
            distribution.

            Operating leases - Rentals payable under operating leases are
            charged to the statement of operations on a straight line basis over
            the lease terms.

            Foreign currency transactions - Transactions in foreign currencies
            are translated at the rates ruling on the dates of the transactions.
            Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
            are re-translated at the rates ruling on the balance sheet date.
            Gains and losses arising on exchange are recognized in the
            statements of operations.

            Income taxes - The charge for taxation is based on the results for
            the period as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or
            disallowed. Deferred income taxes include effects of temporary
            differences arising from the recognition for tax purposes of certain
            items of income and expense in a different accounting period from
            that in which they are recognized in the financial statements.

            Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
            conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
            management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
            reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
            contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
            statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual
            results could differ from these estimates.


4.          INCOME TAXES

            Income is subject to taxation in the various countries in which the
            Company and its subsidiaries operate. The Company is not taxed in
            the British Virgin Islands where it is incorporated. The Company and
            its subsidiaries are each taxed separately.

            The provision for income taxes represents Hong Kong profits tax
            calculated at the Hong Kong statutory rate of 16.5% of the estimated
            assessable profit of a subsidiary.

            Certain subsidiaries have operating loss carry forwards for income
            tax purposes which may be available to reduce future taxable income
            earned by the same legal entity. At January 31, 1998, the Company
            and its subsidiaries had loss carry forwards in Hong Kong amounting
            to approximately HK$30,076,000 which are available for carry forward
            indefinitely. The Company has established a valuation allowance for
            the full amount of these tax losses.

            (b)         Capital expenditure:

                        At January 31, 1998, the Company was obligated to
                        contribute capital of HK$3 million to its subsidiary
                        incorporated in the People's Republic of China.

            (c)         Long service payments:

                        At January 31, 1998, the Group was contingently
                        obligated to compensate its employees who have completed
                        the required number of years of service under the Hong
                        Kong Employment Ordinance to be eligible for long
                        service payments on termination of their employment. The
                        aggregate amount, if payable in full on termination of
                        services with all such eligible employees, is estimated

                        such a payment will be paid.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
AND THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.        UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

          On March 2, 1998, SRS Labs, Inc. ("SRS" or the "Company") acquired all
          of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Valence Technology
          Inc., a British Virgin Islands holding company with its principal
          business operations in Hong Kong and China ("Valence" or "VTI").
          Valence, which conducts its business through its subsidiaries based in
          Hong Kong and China, is engaged in three primary areas of business;
          namely, the design and sale of application-specific integrated
          circuits (ASIC) and other semiconductor products, the design,
          manufacture and sale of consumer electronic products, and the
          distribution of components and products within mainland China and
          throughout Asia. The aggregate purchase price of $19,500,000 consisted
          of approximately $7,400,000 in cash and 1,680,611 shares of the
          Company's common stock. The acquisition was accounted for as a
          purchase and as having an effective date of February 1, 1998. In
          connection with such acquisition, three of the four management
          shareholders and their respective sole shareholders, each of whom was
          a key employee of Valence or one of its subsidiaries, entered into
          noncompetition agreements with the Company. In consideration for these
          agreements and for a nominal cash payment equal to the par value of
          the shares, the Company issued an aggregate of an additional 125,000
          shares of its common stock to such three shareholders.

          The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statement of
          operations, which are presented in U.S. dollars, give effect on a
          purchase accounting basis to the acquisition of Valence. The pro forma
          consolidated condensed statement of operations for the twelve months
          ended December 31, 1997 has been prepared by combining the statement
          of operations of SRS for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997
          with the consolidated statement of operations of Valence for the
          twelve months ended March 31, 1998. The pro forma consolidated
          condensed statement of operations for the three months ended March 31,
          1998 have been prepared by combining the statements of operations of
          SRS and Valence for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

          The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statements of
          operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1997 and the three
          months ended March 31, 1998 assume that the acquisition occurred on
          January 1, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The unaudited pro forma
          consolidated condensed statements of operations do not purport to
          represent the results of operations of SRS had the transaction and
          events assumed therein occurred on the dates specified, nor are they
          necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be
          achieved in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on
          management's preliminary assumptions regarding purchase accounting
          adjustments. The actual allocation of the purchase price will be
          adjusted to the extent that actual amounts differ from management's
          estimates in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
          Standards (SFAS) No. 38, Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies
          of Purchased Enterprises.

          The pro forma consolidated financial information is based upon certain
          assumptions and adjustments described in the notes to the pro forma
          consolidated financial statements. The pro forma consolidated
          financial information should be read in conjunction with (a) the
          historical financial statements, and related notes, of SRS contained
          in SRS' quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
          1998 and in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
          December 31, 1997 and (b) Valence's historical financial statements
          referenced on page F-1 of this report.

</TABLE>


          The following items describe the pro forma adjustments made to reflect
          the acquisition of Valence:

(a)       To record amortization related to the intangible assets based on the
          straight-line method over three to eleven years.

(b)       To record the reduction in interest income and the net decrease in
          interest expense due to the use of previously invested cash for the
          acquisition of Valence and borrowings aggregating $7,000,000 incurred
          to repay certain higher interest rate Valence indebtedness upon the
          acquisition.

(c)       To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments.

(d)       Represents the elimination of certain revenue derived from Valence by
          SRS during the twelve months ended December 31, 1997.

(e)       In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
          Interpretation No. 4, SRS is required to write-off $1,038,710
          in-process research and development acquired by SRS in a separate and
          unrelated transaction during the three months ended March 31, 1998.
          The amount is reflected as a component of the pro forma adjustments to
          operating expenses in the pro forma condensed consolidated statements
          of operations because it is a one-time nonrecurring charge.
