        NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS)

(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Effective August 5, 1997, Revlon Worldwide Corporation ("Revlon
Worldwide") was merged with and into Revlon Worldwide (Parent) Corporation
("Revlon Worldwide (Parent)") (the "Merger"), with Revlon Worldwide (Parent)
surviving the Merger and changing its name to REV Holdings Inc. (together with
its subsidiaries, "REV Holdings" or the "Company"). All references to the
Company for periods prior to the Merger are to Revlon Worldwide and for
periods subsequent to the Merger are to REV Holdings. REV Holdings succeeded
to the rights and obligations of Revlon Worldwide under its various agreements
by reason of the Merger.

         REV Holdings is a holding company formed in 1997 that conducts
its business exclusively through its indirect subsidiary, Revlon Consumer
Products Corporation ("Products Corporation") and its subsidiaries. Products
Corporation was formed in April 1992 and, on June 24, 1992, succeeded to
assets and liabilities of the cosmetic and skin care, fragrances and personal
care products business of its then parent company, whose name was changed from
Revlon, Inc. to Revlon Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"). REV Holdings has had no
business operations of its own and its only material asset is its ownership of
approximately 83.0% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Revlon, Inc.
(which represents approximately 97.4% of the voting power of those outstanding
shares), which, in turn, owns all of the capital stock of Products
Corporation. The Company is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings
and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc.,
a corporation wholly owned indirectly by Mafco Holdings Inc.

         The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements are
unaudited. In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been made.

         The Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the
accounts of the Company after elimination of all material intercompany
balances and transactions. The Company has made a number of estimates and
assumptions relating to the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities and the reporting of revenues and expenses
to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

         The Company recognizes gains and losses on sales of subsidiary stock
in its Statements of Operations.

         The results of operations and financial position, including working
capital, for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be
expected for a full year, due, in part, to seasonal fluctuations, which are
normal for the Company's business.

         The Company matches advertising and promotion expenses with sales
revenues for interim reporting purposes. Advertising and promotion expenses
estimated for a full year are charged to earnings for interim reporting
purposes in proportion to the relationship that net sales for such period bear
to estimated full year net sales. As a result, in the first quarter of 1998
and 1997, disbursements and commitments for advertising and promotion exceeded
advertising and promotion expenses by $28.8 and $22.2, respectively, and such
amounts were deferred.

         During the first quarter of 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," which establishes standards for reporting and displaying
comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. The components of comprehensive income
(loss) are comprised of net income (loss) and changes in the currency
translation adjustment and the adjustment for minimum pension liability.

(3)  LONG-TERM DEBT

         (a) On February 2, 1998, Revlon Escrow Corp. ("Revlon Escrow"), an
affiliate of Products Corporation, issued and sold in a private placement
$650.0 aggregate principal amount of 8 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008
(the "8 5/8% Notes") and $250.0 aggregate principal amount of 8 1/8% Senior
Notes due 2006 (the "8 1/8% Notes" and, together with the 8 5/8% Notes, the
"Notes"), with the net proceeds of approximately $886 deposited into escrow.
The proceeds from the sale of the Notes were used to finance the redemption by
Products Corporation of $555.0 aggregate principal amount of its 10 1/2%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003 (the "Senior Subordinated Notes") and were
used to finance the redemption by Products Corporation of $260.0 aggregate
principal amount of its 9 3/8% Senior Notes due 2001 (the "Senior Notes").
Products Corporation delivered a redemption notice to the holders of the
Senior Subordinated Notes for the redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes
on March 4, 1998, at which time Products Corporation assumed the obligations
under the 8 5/8% Notes and the related indenture (the "8 5/8% Notes
Assumption"), and to the holders of the Senior Notes for the redemption of the
Senior Notes on April 1, 1998, at which time Products Corporation assumed the
obligations under the 8 1/8% Notes and the related indenture (the "8 1/8%
Notes Assumption" and, together with the 8 5/8% Notes Assumption, the
"Assumption"). In connection with the Assumption and the redemption of the
Senior Subordinated Notes on March 4, 1998, the Company recorded $53.8 due
from Revlon Escrow, which was satisfied on April 1, 1998. In connection with
the redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes on March 4, 1998, the Company
recorded an extraordinary loss of $38.2 in the first quarter of 1998 resulting
primarily from the write-off of the deferred financing costs and payment of a
call premium on the Senior Subordinated Notes. In connection with the
redemption of the Senior Notes on April 1, 1998, the Company expects that it
will record an extraordinary loss of approximately $13.5 in the second quarter
of 1998 resulting primarily from the write-off of the deferred financing costs
and payment of a call premium on the Senior Notes.

         On March 12, 1998, Products Corporation filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with
respect to an offer to exchange the Notes for registered notes with
substantially identical terms (the "Exchange Offer"). The registration
statement became effective on April 3, 1998. The Exchange Offer expired on May
7, 1998, and substantially all of the Notes were exchanged for registered notes
with substantially identical terms (the Notes and the registered exchange notes
shall each be referred to as the Notes).

         The 8 5/8% Notes are general unsecured obligations of Products
Corporation and are (i) subordinate in right of payment to all existing and
future Senior Debt (as defined in the indenture relating to the 8 5/8% Notes
(the "8 5/8% Notes Indenture")) of Products Corporation, including the Senior
Notes due 1999 (the "1999 Notes"), 8 1/8% Notes and the indebtedness under the
credit agreement which became effective in May 1997 (as subsequently amended,
the "Credit Agreement"), (ii) pari passu in right of payment with all future
senior subordinated debt, if any, of Products Corporation and (iii) senior in
right of payment to all future subordinated debt, if any, of Products
Corporation. The 8 5/8% Notes are effectively subordinated to the outstanding
indebtedness and other liabilities of Products Corporation's subsidiaries.
Interest is payable on February 1 and August 1.

         The 8 5/8% Notes may be redeemed at the option of Products
Corporation in whole or from time to time in part at any time on or after
February 1, 2003 at the redemption prices set forth in the 8 5/8% Notes
Indenture. In addition, at any time prior to February 1, 2001, Products
Corporation may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 8
5/8% Notes originally issued at a redemption price of 108 5/8% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to
the date fixed for redemption, with, and to the extent Products Corporation
receives, the net cash proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings (as
defined in the 8 5/8% Notes Indenture), provided that at least $422.5
aggregate principal amount of the 8 5/8% Notes remains outstanding immediately
after the occurrence of each such redemption.

         Upon a Change of Control (as defined in the 8 5/8% Notes Indenture),
Products Corporation will have the option to redeem the 8 5/8% Notes in whole
at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if

any, thereon to the date of redemption plus the Applicable Premium (as defined
in the 8 5/8% Notes Indenture) and, subject to certain conditions, each holder
of the 8 5/8% Notes will have the right to require Products Corporation to
repurchase all or a portion of such holder's 8 5/8% Notes at a price equal to
101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, thereon to the date of repurchase.

         The 8 5/8% Notes Indenture contains covenants that, among other
things, limit (i) the issuance of additional debt and redeemable stock by
Products Corporation, (ii) the incurrence of liens, (iii) the issuance of debt
and preferred stock by Products Corporation's subsidiaries, (iv) the payment
of dividends on capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and
the redemption of capital stock of Products Corporation, (v) the sale of
assets and subsidiary stock, (vi) transactions with affiliates, (vii)
consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all Products
Corporation's assets and (viii) the issuance of additional subordinated debt
that is senior in right of payment to the 8 5/8% Notes. The 8 5/8% Notes
Indenture also prohibits certain restrictions on distributions from
subsidiaries. All of these limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject
to a number of important qualifications.

         The 8 1/8% Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Products
Corporation and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and
future Senior Debt (as defined in the indenture relating to the 8 1/8% Notes
(the "8 1/8% Notes Indenture")) of Products Corporation, including the 1999
Notes and the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, and senior to the 8 5/8%
Notes and to all future subordinated indebtedness of Products Corporation. The
8 1/8% Notes are effectively subordinated to the outstanding indebtedness and
other liabilities of Products Corporation's subsidiaries. Interest is payable
on February 1 and August 1.

         The 8 1/8% Notes may be redeemed at the option of Products
Corporation in whole or from time to time in part at any time on or after
February 1, 2002 at the redemption prices set forth in the 8 1/8% Notes
Indenture. In addition, at any time prior to February 1, 2001, Products
Corporation may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 8
1/8% Notes originally issued at a redemption price of 108 1/8% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to
the date fixed for redemption, with, and to the extent Products Corporation
receives, the net cash proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings (as
defined in the 8 1/8% Notes Indenture), provided that at least $162.5
aggregate principal amount of the 8 1/8% Notes remains outstanding immediately
after the occurrence of each such redemption.

         Upon a Change of Control (as defined in the 8 1/8% Note Indenture),
Products Corporation will have the option to redeem the 8 1/8% Notes in whole
at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of redemption plus the Applicable
Premium (as defined in the 8 1/8% Notes Indenture) and, subject to certain
conditions, each holder of the 8 1/8% Notes will have the right to require
Products Corporation to repurchase all or a portion of such holder's 8 1/8%
Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase.

         The 8 1/8% Notes Indenture contains covenants that, among other
things, limit (i) the issuance of additional debt and redeemable stock by
Products Corporation, (ii) the incurrence of liens, (iii) the issuance of debt
and preferred stock by Products Corporation's subsidiaries, (iv) the payment
of dividends on capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and
the redemption of capital stock of Products Corporation, (v) the sale of
assets and subsidiary stock, (vi) transactions with affiliates and (vii)
consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all Products
Corporation's assets. The 8 1/8% Notes Indenture also prohibits certain
restrictions on distributions from subsidiaries. All of these limitations and
prohibitions, however, are subject to a number of important qualifications.

         (b) On March 5, 1997, the Company issued and sold $770.0 aggregate
principal amount at maturity (net proceeds of $505.0) of its Senior Secured 
Discount Notes due 2001 (the "Old Notes"). The Old Notes were issued at a 
discount from their principal amount at maturity representing a yield to 
maturity of 10 3/4% per annum calculated from March 5, 1997. There are no 
periodic interest payments on the Senior Secured Discount Notes (as defined 
herein). The Company filed a registration statement under the Securities Act 
of 1933, as amended, relating to an offer to exchange (the "1997 Exchange 
Offer") the Old Notes for a like principal amount of notes (the "New Notes") 
with substantially identical terms (the New Notes, together with the Old Notes,
being the "Senior Secured Discount Notes"), which registration statement became
effective on July 9, 1997. The 1997 Exchange Offer expired on August 13, 1997, 
and substantially all of the Old Notes were exchanged for the New Notes.

         (c) During March 1997, $778.4 principal amount at maturity (accreted
value of $694.0) of the Revlon Worldwide Notes was delivered to the Trustee
under the indenture governing the Revlon Worldwide Notes (the "Revlon
Worldwide Indenture") for

cancellation. In connection with the Revlon Worldwide Notes that were
canceled, the Company recorded a capital contribution from its indirect parent
of $560.1 and recorded an extraordinary loss of $43.8, which included the
write-off of deferred financing costs, in the first quarter of 1997. On April
2, 1997, funds were deposited in an irrevocable trust to effect the covenant
defeasance of the remaining balance of $337.4 principal amount at maturity of
the Revlon Worldwide Notes. The covenant defeasance of the Revlon Worldwide
Notes was effected on August 4, 1997, the 124th day following the deposit. On
March 16, 1998, $337.4 of funds held in the irrevocable trust were used to
repay the remaining Revlon Worldwide Notes upon their maturity.

(4)  BUSINESS CONSOLIDATION COSTS AND OTHER, NET

          In connection with the business consolidation costs and other, net,
recorded in 1997, the Company made cash payments for severance of $2.3 and
cash payments for other business consolidation costs of $0.9 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998. As of March 31, 1998, the unpaid balance of the
business consolidation costs included in accrued expenses and other was $8.3.

(5)  ACQUISITION

         On April 25, 1997, Prestige Fragrance & Cosmetics, Inc. ("PFC"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Products Corporation, merged with and into The
Cosmetic Center, Inc. ("CCI") (the "Cosmetic Center Merger") with CCI
(subsequent to the Cosmetic Center Merger, "Cosmetic Center") being the
surviving corporation. In the Cosmetic Center Merger, Products Corporation
received in exchange for all of the capital stock of PFC newly issued Class C
common stock of Cosmetic Center constituting approximately 85% of the
outstanding common stock for a purchase price of approximately $27.9. The
Cosmetic Center Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition using the
purchase method of accounting, so that PFC is considered the acquiring entity
for accounting purposes even though Cosmetic Center is the surviving legal
entity.

(6)  GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENTS

         The Company manages its business on the basis of one reportable
segment. The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in social, political
and economic conditions inherent in foreign operations and the Company's
results of operations and the value of its foreign assets and liabilities are
affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company's
operations in Brazil have accounted for approximately 5.7% and 7.0% of the
Company's net sales for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net
sales by geographic area are presented by attributing revenues from external
customers on the basis of where the products are sold.

OVERVIEW

         The Company operates in a single business segment with many different
products, which include an extensive array of glamorous, exciting and
innovative cosmetics and skin care, fragrance and personal care products, and
professional products, consisting of hair and nail care products principally
for use in and resale by professional salons. In addition, the Company also
operates retail and outlet stores and engages in licensing.

         The Company presents its business geographically as its United States
operation, which comprises the Company's business in the United States, and
its International operation, which comprises its business outside of the
United States.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following table sets forth the Company's net sales by operation
for the first quarters of 1998 and 1997, respectively:

and $5.9, S,G&A expenses of $18.4 and $9.5, and operating loss of $4.2 and
$2.5.

**  Excluding the results of Cosmetic Center, after giving effect to certain
intercompany adjustments for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, the above
percentages would have been, respectively: cost of sales of 32.8% and 33.4%,
gross profit of 67.2%, and 66.6%, S,G&A expenses of 61.4% and 61.4%, business
consolidation costs and other, net, of 0% and 1.1% and operating income of
5.8% and 4.1%.

NET SALES

         Net sales were $534.3 and $492.9 for the first quarters of 1998 and
1997, respectively, an increase of $41.4 or 8.4% (or 11.3% on a constant U.S.
dollar basis), primarily as a result of successful new product introductions
worldwide, increased demand in the United States, the impact of the Cosmetic
Center Merger and increased distribution internationally.

         United States. The United States operation's net sales increased to
$319.2 for the first quarter of 1998 from $282.9 for the first quarter of
1997, an increase of $36.3, or 12.8%. Net sales improved for the first quarter
of 1998, primarily as a result of continued consumer acceptance of new product
offerings, general improvement in consumer demand for the Company's color
cosmetics and the impact of the Cosmetic Center Merger. Even though consumer
sell-through for the REVLON and ALMAY brands, as described below in more
detail, has increased, the Company's sales to its customers have been and may
continue to be impacted by retail inventory balancing and reductions resulting
from consolidation in the chain drugstore industry in the U.S.

         REVLON brand color cosmetics continued as the number one brand in
dollar market share in the self-select distribution channel. New product
introductions (including, in 1998, certain products launched during 1997)
generated incremental net sales in the first quarter of 1998, principally as a
result of launches of products in the COLORSTAY collection, COLORSTAY
haircolor, TOP SPEED nail enamel, MOISTURESTAY lip makeup, LINE & SHINE lip
makeup, launches of products in the ALMAY AMAZING collection, STAY SMOOTH
ANTI-CHAP lip makeup and launches of products in the ALMAY ONE COAT
collection.

         International. The International operation's net sales increased to
$215.1 for the first quarter of 1998 from $210.0 for the first quarter of
1997, an increase of $5.1, or 2.4% on a reported basis or 9.0% on a constant
U.S. dollar basis. Net sales improved for the first quarter of 1998,
principally as a result of increased distribution and successful new product
introductions. This was partially offset, on a reported basis, by the
unfavorable effect on sales of a stronger U.S. dollar against most foreign
currencies and, unfavorable economic conditions in several international
markets. New products such as COLORSTAY haircolor and TOP SPEED nail enamel
were introduced in select international markets. The International operation's
sales are divided into the following geographic areas: Europe, which is
comprised of Europe, the Middle East and Africa (in which net sales increased
by 4.5% on a reported basis to $99.7 for the first quarter of 1998 as compared
to the first quarter of 1997 or an increase of 11.1% on a constant U.S. dollar
basis); the Western Hemisphere, which is comprised of Canada, Mexico, Central
America, South America and Puerto Rico (in which net sales increased by 10.3%
on a reported basis to $82.4 for the first quarter of 1998 as compared to the
first quarter of 1997 or an increase of 15.6% on a constant U.S. dollar
basis); and the Far East (in which net sales decreased by 17.3% on a reported
basis to $33.0 for the first quarter of 1998 as compared to the first quarter
of 1997 or a decrease of 8.6% on a constant U.S. dollar basis). Net sales in
the Far East were adversely impacted by general economic conditions and
competitive activities in certain markets.

         The Company's operations in Brazil are significant and, along with
operations in certain other countries, have been subject to, and may continue
to be subject to, significant political and economic uncertainties. In Brazil,
net sales, operating income and income (loss) before taxes were $30.4, $2.1
and ($0.1), respectively, for the first quarter of 1998 compared to $34.4,
$6.8 and $4.4, respectively, for the first quarter of 1997. In addition,
results of operations in Brazil for the first quarter of 1998 reflect
increased advertising and consumer-directed promotion expenditures to support
the Company's product lines, the effect of competitive activities and the
adverse impact of a stronger U.S. dollar against the Brazilian real.

Cost of sales

         As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales was 34.7% for the first
quarter of 1998 compared to 33.7% for the first quarter of 1997. The increase
in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is due primarily to the impact
of the Cosmetic Center Merger. Excluding the results of Cosmetic Center, as a
percentage of net sales, cost of sales would have been 32.8% for the first
quarter of 1998 compared to 33.4% for the first quarter of 1997, due
primarily to the benefits of improved overhead absorption against higher
production volumes and more efficient global production and purchasing. These
factors were partially offset by changes in product mix and the effect of
weaker local currencies on the cost of imported purchases.

S,G&A expenses

         As a percentage of net sales, S,G&A expenses were 60.7% for the first
quarter of 1998, an improvement from 61.7% for the first quarter of 1997.
S,G&A expenses other than advertising and consumer-directed promotion
expenses, as a percentage of net sales, improved to 44.2% for the first
quarter of 1998 compared with 45.4% for the first quarter of 1997, primarily
as a result of improved productivity, lower distribution costs and the impact
of the Cosmetic Center Merger. In accordance with its business strategy, the
Company increased advertising and consumer-directed promotion expenditures in
the first quarter of 1998 compared with the first quarter of 1997 to support
growth in existing product lines, new product launches and increased
distribution in many of the Company's markets in the International operation.
Advertising and consumer-directed promotion expenses increased by 9.6% to
$87.9, or 16.5% of net sales, for the first quarter of 1998 from $80.2, or
16.3% of net sales, for the first quarter of 1997.

 Business consolidation costs and other, net

         In the first quarter of 1997 the Company incurred business
consolidation costs of approximately $5.4 in connection with the
implementation of its business strategy to rationalize factory operations.
These costs primarily included severance and other related costs in certain
International operations.

 Operating income

         As a result of the foregoing, operating income increased by $7.3, or
42.4%, to $24.5 for the first quarter of 1998 from $17.2 for the first quarter
of 1997.

 Other expenses/income

         Interest expense was $60.1 for the first quarter of 1998 compared to
$63.1 for the first quarter of 1997. The decrease in interest expense in the
first quarter of 1998 is due to the cancellation of the Revlon Worldwide
Notes, lower interest expense under the Senior Secured Discount Notes and
lower interest rates, partially offset by higher average outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Agreement and a non-recurring interest charge
associated with the refinancing (see Note 3 (a)).

         Interest and net investment income was $4.8 for the first quarter of
1998 compared to $2.4 for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in interest
and net investment income was primarily due to the interest income recognized
on marketable securities that were purchased by the Company and deposited in
an irrevocable trust to effect the covenant defeasance of the remaining Revlon
Worldwide Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

         Foreign currency losses, net, were $1.5 for the first quarter of 1998
compared to $1.8 for the first quarter of 1997. The decrease in foreign
currency losses for the first quarter of 1998 as compared to the first quarter
of 1997 resulted primarily from lower intercompany balances among the
Company's International operations.

 Provision for income taxes

         The provision for income taxes was $3.7 and $5.5 for the first
quarters of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease was primarily
attributable to lower taxable income in certain International operations,
partially as a result of the implementation of tax planning, including the
utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in certain International
operations.

 Extraordinary item

         The extraordinary item of $38.2 in the first quarter of 1998 resulted
primarily from the write-off of the deferred financing costs and the payment
of a call premium associated with the redemption of the Senior Subordinated
Notes. The extraordinary item of $43.8 in the first quarter of 1997 resulted
from the cancellation of a portion of the Revlon Worldwide Notes and the
write-off of the deferred financing costs associated with such cancellation.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash used for operating activities was $24.2 and $77.8 for the
first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in net cash used
for operating activities for the first quarter of 1998 compared with the first
quarter of 1997 resulted primarily from higher operating income and improved
working capital management, partially offset by increased spending on
merchandise display units in connection with the Company's continued expansion
into the self-select distribution channel.

         Net cash provided by (used for) investing activities was $329.6 and
($327.6) for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net cash
provided by investing activities for the first quarter of 1998 consisted
primarily of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities that were used to
repay the remaining Revlon Worldwide Notes upon their maturity. Net cash (used
for) investing activities in the first quarter of 1997 consisted primarily of
the purchase of marketable securities that were deposited in a irrevocable
trust to effect the covenant defeasance of the remaining Revlon Worldwide
Notes not previously delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.

         Net cash (used for) provided by financing activities was ($310.5) and
$402.8 for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net cash (used
for) financing activities for the first quarter of 1998 included the repayment
of the remaining portion of the Revlon Worldwide Notes, the payment of fees
and expenses related to the issuance of the 8 5/8% Notes, the redemption of
the Senior Subordinated Notes and the repayment of borrowings under the
Company's Japanese yen-denominated credit agreement (the "Yen Credit
Agreement"), partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of the 8 5/8%
Notes and cash drawn under the Credit Agreement and Cosmetic Center's credit
facility. Net cash provided by financing activities for the first quarter of
1997 included cash drawn under the credit agreement in effect at that time
(the "1996 Credit Agreement") and net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior
Secured Discount Notes, partially offset by the purchase of the Revlon
Worldwide Notes delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and repayment of
borrowings under the Yen Credit Agreement.

         On February 2, 1998, Revlon Escrow issued and sold the Notes in a
private placement, with the net proceeds deposited into escrow. The proceeds
from the sale of the Notes were used to finance the redemptions of the Senior
Subordinated Notes and the Senior Notes. Products Corporation delivered a
redemption notice to the holders of the Senior Subordinated Notes for the
redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes on March 4, 1998, at which time
Products Corporation consummated the 8 5/8% Notes Assumption, and to the
holders of the Senior Notes for the redemption of the Senior Notes on April 1,
1998, at which time Products Corporation consummated the 8 1/8% Notes
Assumption. In connection with the Assumption and the redemption of the Senior
Subordinated Notes on March 4, 1998, the Company recorded $53.8 due from
Revlon Escrow, which was satisfied on April 1, 1998. In connection with the
redemption of the Senior Notes on April 1, 1998, the Company expects that it
will record an extraordinary loss of approximately $13.5 in the second quarter
of 1998 resulting primarily from the write-off of the deferred financing costs
and payment of a call premium on the Senior Notes. On March 12, 1998 Products
Corporation filed a registration statement with the Commission with respect to
the Exchange Offer, which registration statement became effective on April 3,
1998. The Exchange Offer expired on May 7, 1998, and substantially all of the
Notes were exchanged for registered notes with substantially identical terms. 
The 8 5/8% Notes Indenture and the 8 1/8% Notes Indenture (together, the "Notes
Indentures") contain covenants that among other things, limit (i) the issuance
of additional debt and redeemable stock by Products Corporation, (ii) the
incurrence of liens, (iii) the issuance of debt and preferred stock by
Products Corporation's subsidiaries, (iv) the payment of dividends on capital
stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and the redemption of
capital stock of Products Corporation, (v) the sale of assets and subsidiary
stock, (vi) transactions with affiliates, (vii) consolidations, mergers and
transfers of all or substantially all Products Corporation assets and (viii)
in the case of the 8 5/8% Notes Indenture, the issuance of additional
subordinated debt that is senior in right of payment to the 8 5/8% Notes. The
Notes Indentures also prohibit certain restrictions on distributions from
Products Corporation and subsidiaries of Products Corporation. All of these
limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject to a number of important
qualifications.

         In May 1997, Products Corporation entered into the Credit Agreement
with a syndicate of lenders, whose individual members change from time to
time. The proceeds of loans made under the Credit Agreement were used for the
purpose of repaying the loans outstanding under the 1996 Credit Agreement and
to redeem Products Corporation's 10 7/8% Sinking Fund Debentures due 2010 and
were and will be used for general corporate purposes or, in the case of the
Acquisition Facility, the financing of acquisitions. At March 31, 1998,
Products Corporation had approximately $200.0 outstanding under the Term Loan
Facilities, $137.1 outstanding under the Multi-Currency Facility, $42.5
outstanding under the Acquisition Facility and $34.1 of issued but undrawn
letters of credit under the Special LC Facility.

         A subsidiary of Products Corporation is the borrower under the Yen
Credit Agreement, which had a principal balance of approximately yen 3.8 billion
as of March 31, 1998 (approximately $28.6 U.S. dollar equivalent as of March
31, 1998). In accordance with the terms of the Yen Credit Agreement
approximately yen 539 million (approximately $4.6 U.S. dollar equivalent) was
paid in January 1997. In June 1997, Products Corporation amended and restated
the Yen Credit Agreement to extend the term to December 31, 2000 subject to
earlier termination under certain circumstances. In accordance with the terms
of the Yen Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, approximately yen 539
million (approximately $4.2 U.S. dollar equivalent) was paid in March 1998,
approximately yen 539 million (approximately $4.1 U.S. dollar equivalent as of
March 31, 1998) is due in each of March 1999 and 2000 and yen 2.7 billion
(approximately $20.4 U.S. dollar equivalent as of March 31, 1998) is due on
December 31, 2000.

         Products Corporation borrows funds from its affiliates from time to
time to supplement its working capital borrowings at interest rates more
favorable to Products Corporation than interest rates under the Credit
Agreement. No such borrowings were outstanding as of March 31, 1998.

         The Company's principal sources of funds are expected to be cash flow
generated from operations and borrowings under the Credit Agreement and other
existing working capital lines. The Credit Agreement, the 1999 Notes and the
Notes contain certain provisions that by their terms limit Products
Corporation's and/or its subsidiaries' ability to, among other things, incur
additional debt. The Senior Secured Discount Notes contain certain provisions
that by their terms limit REV Holdings' and/or its subsidiaries' ability to,
among other things, incur additional debt. The Company's principal uses of
funds are expected to be the payment of operating expenses, working capital
and capital expenditure requirements and debt service payments.

         The Company estimates that capital expenditures for 1998 will be
approximately $65, including upgrades to the Company's management information
systems. Pursuant to tax sharing agreements, REV Holdings and Revlon, Inc. may
be required to make tax sharing payments to Mafco Holdings Inc. as if REV
Holdings or Revlon, Inc., as the case may be, were filing separate income tax
returns, except that no payments are required by Revlon, Inc. if and to the
extent that Products Corporation is prohibited under the Credit Agreement from
making tax sharing payments to Revlon, Inc. The Credit Agreement prohibits
Products Corporation from making any tax sharing payments other than in
respect of state and local income taxes. REV Holdings anticipates that with
respect to Revlon, Inc. as a result of net operating tax losses and
prohibitions under the Credit Agreement, and with respect to REV Holdings as a
result of the absence of business operations or a source of income of its own,
no cash federal tax payments or cash payments in lieu of federal taxes
pursuant to the tax sharing agreements will be required for 1998.

         Products Corporation was party to a series of interest rate swap
agreements totaling a notional amount of $225.0 in which Products Corporation
agreed to pay on such notional amount a variable interest rate equal to the
six month LIBOR to its counterparties and the counterparties agreed to pay on
such notional amounts fixed interest rates averaging approximately 6.03% per
annum. Products Corporation entered into these agreements in 1993 and 1994
(and in the first quarter of 1996 extended a portion equal to a notional
amount of $125.0 through December 2001) to convert the interest rate on $225.0
of fixed-rate indebtedness to a variable rate. Products Corporation terminated
these agreements in January 1998 and realized a gain of approximately $1.6,
which was recognized upon repayment of the hedged indebtedness and is included
in the first quarter 1998 extraordinary item - early extinguishment of debt.

         Products Corporation enters into forward foreign exchange contracts
and option contracts from time to time to hedge certain cash flows denominated
in foreign currencies. Products Corporation had forward foreign exchange
contracts denominated in various currencies of approximately $45.1 and $67.5
(U.S. dollar equivalent) at March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and option
contracts of approximately $75.8 (U.S. dollar equivalent) outstanding at March
31, 1998. Such contracts are entered into to hedge transactions predominantly
occurring within twelve months. If Products Corporation had terminated these
contracts on March 31, 1998 and 1997, no material gain or loss would have been
realized.

 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS 
                                OF OPERATIONS
                             (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS)

         Based upon the Company's current level of operations and anticipated
growth in net sales and earnings as a result of its business strategy, the
Company expects that cash flows from operations and funds from currently
available subsidiary credit facilities and refinancings of existing subsidiary
indebtedness will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its anticipated
cash requirements for the foreseeable future, including debt service of its
subsidiaries. However, there can be no assurance that cash flow will be
sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements on a consolidated basis. If
the Company is unable to satisfy such cash requirements from these sources,
the Company could be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as
reducing or delaying capital expenditures, restructuring subsidiary
indebtedness, selling assets or operations, selling its equity securities,
seeking capital contributions or loans from affiliates of the Company or
selling additional shares of capital stock of Revlon, Inc. There can be no
assurance that any of such actions could be effected, that they would enable
the Company's subsidiaries to continue to satisfy their respective capital
requirements or that they would be permitted under the terms of the Company's
and its subsidiaries' various debt instruments then in effect. The Company, as
a holding company, will be dependent on distributions with respect to its
approximately 83.0% ownership interest in Revlon, Inc. from the net earnings
generated by Products Corporation to pay its expenses and to pay the principal
amount at maturity of the Senior Secured Discount Notes. The terms of the
Credit Agreement, the 1999 Notes and the Notes generally restrict Products
Corporation from paying dividends or making distributions, except that
Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make distributions to
Revlon, Inc., among other things, to enable Revlon, Inc. to pay expenses
incidental to being a public holding company, including, among other things,
professional fees such as legal and accounting, regulatory fees such as
Commission filing fees and other miscellaneous expenses related to being a
public holding company and to pay dividends or make distributions in certain
circumstances to finance the purchase by Revlon, Inc. of its Class A common
stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A common stock to grantees
under the Revlon, Inc. Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Plan, provided that the
aggregate amount of such dividends and distributions taken together with any
purchases of Revlon, Inc. common stock on the open market to satisfy matching
obligations under the excess savings plan may not exceed $6.0 per annum.

         The Company currently anticipates that cash flow generated from
operations will be insufficient to pay the principal amount at maturity of the
Senior Secured Discount Notes. Accordingly, the Company currently anticipates
that it will be required to adopt one or more alternatives to pay the
principal amount at maturity of the Senior Secured Discount Notes, such as
refinancing its indebtedness, selling its equity securities or the equity
securities or assets of Revlon, Inc. or seeking capital contributions or loans
from its affiliates. There can be no assurance that any of the foregoing
actions could be effected on satisfactory terms, that any of the foregoing
actions would enable the Company to pay the principal amount at maturity of
the Senior Secured Discount Notes or that any of such actions would be
permitted by the terms of the Indenture or any other debt instruments of the
Company and the Company's subsidiaries then in effect.

The effect of adopting the statement and the date of such adoption by the
Company has not yet been determined.
