                                 (UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and 
Rule 10-01 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.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring 
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. 
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative 
of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year. 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 
Panavision, Panavision International, L.P. (PILP) and PILP's majority-owned 
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany amounts and transactions have been 
eliminated.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and 
accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 
the year ended December 31, 1996.

3. LONG-TERM DEBT (continued)

Long-term debt above represents borrowings under the Company's Amended Credit 
Agreement.  Principal repayments under the Amended Credit Agreement are 
payable quarterly beginning December 1997 through December 2002.  The 
interest rate under the Amended Credit Agreement was 6.56% and 6.54% at March 
31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.  The Company believes the 
carrying value of its amounts payable under the Amended Credit Agreement 
approximate fair value based upon current yields for debt issues of similar 
quality and terms.

The Company's obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by 
substantially all of the Company's assets. The Amended Credit Agreement 
requires that the Company meet certain financial tests and contains other 
restrictive covenants including maintaining certain total debt ratio and 
interest coverage ratio levels.  The Company was in compliance with all such 
covenants as of March 31, 1997.

4. USE OF ESTIMATES AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions 
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying 
notes. Actual results could differ from such estimates. 

The Company's future results could be adversely affected by a number of 
factors, including without limitation, (a) a significant reduction in the 
number of feature films produced; (b) competitive pressures arising from 
changes in technology, customer requirements and industry standards; (c) an 
increase in expenses related to new product initiatives and product 
development efforts; and (d) unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128 (SFAS 128), EARNINGS PER SHARE, which is required to be adopted on December
31, 1997. At that time the Company will be required to change the method
currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods.
Under the new requirements, primary and fully diluted earnings per share will be
replaced with basic and diluted earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share
excludes the dilutive effect of stock options and will therefore be higher

                                                                              7

than primary earnings per share. Basic earnings per share for the three 
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 was $0.19 and $0.08, respectively. The 
impact of SFAS 128 on the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share for 
these quarters is not expected to be material. 

                                                                              8

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Camera rental revenue increased $0.8 million, or 4.0%, to $20.9 million for 
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $20.1 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1996.  This increase resulted primarily from the rental of newly 
manufactured specialty lenses and accessories to supply the increased demand 
in the North American and U.K. feature film and commercial markets as well as 
the North American episodic television market.  Revenue also increased as a 
result of a small increase in rental rates.

Lighting rental revenue increased $4.5 million to $5.1 million for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $0.6 million for the quarter ended March 
31, 1996. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Lee Lighting 
in July 1996.

Sales and other revenue increased $0.6 million, or 13.3%, to $5.1 million for 
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $4.5 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1996.  This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Lee 
Lighting in July 1996, which resulted in increased sales revenue of $0.4 
million.  The remaining increase was due to increased sales revenue for Lee 
Filters.

Cost of camera rental increased $0.3 million, or 3.4%, to $9.0 million for 
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $8.7 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1996.  This increase was primarily due to the increased rental 
asset depreciation.  The increase in cost of camera rental due to the 
increase in maintenance and service costs required to service additional 
camera rental customers was offset by a small decrease in the third-party 
agent commissions.

Cost of lighting rental increased $3.8 million to $4.1 million for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $0.3 million for the quarter ended March 
31, 1996. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Lee Lighting 
in July 1996, which resulted in an increased cost of lighting rental of $3.7 
million.  

Cost of sales and other increased $0.1 million, or 3.8%, to $2.7 million for 
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $2.6 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1996.  This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Lee 
Lighting in July 1996, which resulted in an increase in cost of sales and 
other of $0.2 million, offset by lower cost of sales associated with Lee 
Filters' sales.

                                                                             9

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.4 million, or 
20.9%, to $8.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $6.7 million 
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  This increase was primarily due to the 
acquisition of Lee Lighting in July 1996, which resulted in an increase in 
selling, general and administrative costs of $0.7 million.  The remaining 
increase was due to small increases in operating and personnel costs 
throughout the Company.

Research and development expenses increased $0.3 million, or 30%, to $1.3 
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $1.0 million for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1996.  This increase was primarily due to an increase 
in research and development staff and increased consulting costs related to 
the Company's ongoing development projects.

Net interest expense decreased $0.3 million, or 25%, to $0.9 million for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 
31, 1996.  The decrease was due to the repayment of debt subsequent to the 
November 1996 initial public offering.

Net other income increased $0.2 million to $0.2 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1997 due to gains from disposals of fixed assets of $0.2 million.

Income before income taxes increased $3.8 million, or 271%, to $5.2 million 
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $1.4 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1996.  The increase was primarily due to the factors discussed 
above, as well as the elimination of the charge for the non-controlling 
partners' interest for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from $3.3 million for 
the quarter ended March 31, 1996, due to the recapitalization of May 1996 
which eliminated the non-controlling partners' interest.

The effective tax rates for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 
1996 were 32.0% and 15.2%, respectively.  The increase in the effective tax 
rate for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was primarily due to the reduction 
in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and a higher effective tax 
rate relating to income from foreign operations.

Net income increased $2.3 million, or 192%, to $3.5 million for the quarter 
ended March 31, 1997 from $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  

                                                                            10

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following table sets forth certain information from the Company's 
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the periods indicated:

                                            -----------------------------
                                             THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,

                                                     (IN THOUSANDS)
   Net cash provided by (used in):
   Operating activities. . . . . . . . .          9,529        5,601
   Investing activities. . . . . . . . .        (11,860)      (4,286)
   Financing activities. . . . . . . . .         (6,500)      (1,868)

The Company relies primarily upon cash provided by operations to finance its 
operations, repay long-term indebtedness and fund capital expenditures 
primarily for manufacturing camera systems, lenses and accessories and 
purchasing other rental equipment.

For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, cash provided by operating activities 
was $9.5 million.  Net income of $3.5 million, adjusted for depreciation and 
amortization of $5.2 million, provided $8.7 million, which was increased by a 
source of $1.1 million, resulting from the net change in non-cash working 
capital items, and miscellaneous non-cash items of ($0.3) million.  Total 
investing activities of $11.9 million were comprised of capital expenditures 
of $12.2 million, offset by $0.3 million of proceeds received from the 
disposition of certain equipment.  The majority of the capital expenditures 
were used to manufacture camera rental systems and to purchase other rental 
equipment.  Cash used in financing activities of $6.5 million was used as a 
reduction of outstanding borrowings.

For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, cash provided by operating activities 
was $5.6 million.  Net income of $1.2 million, adjusted for depreciation and 
amortization of $4.4 million and the non-controlling partners' interest of 
$3.3 million, provided $8.9 million, which was partially offset by a use of 
$3.0 million, resulting from the net change in non-cash working capital 
items, and miscellaneous non-cash items of ($0.3) million.  Total investing 
activities of $4.3 million were comprised of capital expenditures of $4.6 
million, offset by $0.3 million of proceeds received from the disposition of 
certain equipment. The majority of the capital expenditures were used to 
manufacture camera rental systems and to purchase other rental equipment.

                                                                            11

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Cash used in financing activities of $1.9 million was comprised of $1.1 
million in repayments of borrowings and $0.8 million of distributions to 
taxing authorities on behalf of the partners in PILP.

Additional cash flow provided by operating activities will be used to repay 
debt outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement.  The Company believes 
that its existing working capital together with borrowings under the Amended 
Credit Agreement and anticipated cash flow from operating activities will be 
sufficient to meet its expected operating and capital spending requirements 
for at least the next year.
