SILVER CINEMAS INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      GENERAL - Silver Cinemas International, Inc. and its subsidiaries
      (collectively referred to as the "Company") own or lease and operate
      motion picture theaters.

      UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The
      accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
      been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
      for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and
      Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all
      adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a
      fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and
      cash flows for the periods presented have been included. Results of
      operations for the periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative
      of results of operations for any subsequent quarter or the year ending
      December 31, 2000.

      The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction
      with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year
      ended December 31, 1999 included in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K
      by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on April 15,
      2000.

      Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
      financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
      accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the
      Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations.

      GOING CONCERN - The Company has experienced significant operating losses
      since inception, has a working capital deficiency, expects that it will
      continue to incur net losses, and is not in compliance with certain
      requirements of its financing arrangements (see Note 4). The Company's
      operations are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among
      others: (i) limited operating history; (ii) dependence on motion picture
      production and performance; (iii) relationships with film distributors;
      and (iv) competition by entities with greater financial and other
      resources. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful
      in achieving or sustaining profitability and positive cash flow in the
      future.

      The Company will be required to restructure its current financing
      arrangements and/or seek additional financing sufficient to meet its
      working capital needs for fiscal 2000. Given that no assurance can be made
      that the Company could restructure its current financing arrangements
      and/or obtain additional financing, substantial doubt exists about the
      Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements
      do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on
      the recoverability and classifications of assets or liabilities that may
      result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

      ACCOUNTING 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 disclosure of contingent assets and
      liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
      amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
      results could differ from those amounts.

      The senior subordinated notes (the "Notes") bear interest at 10 1/2% and
      are due in 2005. The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the
      option of the Company at a redemption price of 107.875% in 2001, 105.250%
      in 2002, 102.625% in 2003 and 100% in 2004 and thereafter plus any accrued
      but unpaid interest. In addition, on or before April 15, 2001, the Company
      may, at its option and subject to certain requirements, use an amount
      equal to the net cash proceeds from one or more public equity offerings,
      as defined, to redeem up to an aggregate of 35% of the principal amount of
      the Notes originally issued at a redemption price of 110.5% plus any
      accrued but unpaid interest. Upon a change in control of the Company, as
      defined in the indenture, the Company will be required to make an offer to
      repurchase all or any part of each holder's Notes at a price equal to 101%
      of the principal amount thereof plus interest. The Notes also include
      restrictive covenants relative to the incurrence of additional
      indebtedness, the payment of dividends and other matters.

      The Company did not make a scheduled interest payment for the Notes when
      due on April 15, 2000 and is not currently in compliance with certain
      requirements of its senior secured credit agreement. Accordingly, the
      Notes have been included in the current portion of long-term debt on the
      Company's consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2000 and December 31,
      1999.

      CREDIT AGREEMENTS - On October 6, 1999, Farallon Capital Funding, LLC
      ("Farallon"), as agent, an affiliate thereof, as initial lender and the
      Company and its subsidiaries entered into a four year, senior secured
      credit facility with aggregate availability of $50 million, subject to a
      defined real estate collateralbased borrowing base (the "Credit
      Facility"). The $50.0 million facility is comprised of a revolving credit
      facility of up to $15.0 million (the "Revolver"), term loans of up to
      $17.0 million ("Term A Loan") and term loans of up to $18.0 million ("Term
      B Loans"). The Term A Loan was funded in its entirety on October 8, 1999.
      Under the Term A Loan and the Revolver, the Company will utilize
      borrowings to fund working capital requirements, and for other general
      corporate purposes, including, subject to certain conditions, the
      acquisition and construction of theaters. The Term B Loans may be used
      only for repurchasing the Notes, and the amount of Term B Loans will be
      limited to the lesser of (i) $18.0 and (ii) the amount by which the real
      estate collateral-based borrowing base exceeds the sum of the outstanding
      principal balance (including accrued interest) of the Term A Loan and the
      $15.0 million revolving loan commitment). Borrowings under the Credit
      Facility rank senior in right of payment to the Notes and are secured by a
      perfected first priority security interest in substantially all existing
      and future assets of the Company including:(i) fee interests and certain
      leasehold interests in real property; (ii) accounts receivable, equipment,
      inventory, and intangibles; and (iii) the capital stock of the Company and
      its subsidiaries. Borrowings bear total annual interest at 15.5% with
      annual interest at 12.875% due monthly and the remaining interest due with
      the borrowings. The Company pays an annual unused commitment fee of 0.50%.

      Farallon's obligations under the Credit Facility to advance funds at any
      time during the four-year term are subject to certain conditions customary
      in secured credit facilities, including the absence of a default under the
      Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that,
      among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its
      subsidiaries to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness or
      guarantees, prepay other indebtedness, pay dividends, create liens on
      assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments,
      loans, or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or
      consolidations, make capital expenditures, change the business conducted
      by the Company or its subsidiaries or engage in certain corporate
      activities. The Company is not currently in compliance with certain
      requirements, including its failure to make a scheduled interest payment
      for the Company's Notes when due on April 15, 2000. Accordingly, the total
      borrowings and deferred interest of approximately $25.9 million and $19.8
      million under the Credit Facility have been included in the current
      portion of long-term debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheet at
      March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

      On April 28, 2000, Farallon made an additional $3.9 million advance under
      the revolving loan commitment. Commencing April 29, 2000, loans under the
      Credit Facility bear annual interest at 17.5%.

5.    CAPITAL STOCK

      As of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, aggregate Series A Preferred
      Stock dividends of $5,763,430 and $5,148,497, respectively, are in
      arrears. The Company also has Convertible Preferred Stock dividends in
      arrears of $155,040 and $79,200 as of March 31, 2000 and December 31,
      1999, respectively.

7.    ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

      Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed by the
      Company for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
      indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
      Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison
      of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows
      without interest costs expected to be generated by the asset. If the
      carrying value of the assets exceeds the expected future cash flows, an
      impairment exists and is measured by the amount by which the carrying
      amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets.
      Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount
      or fair value less costs to sell. Considerable management judgment is
      necessary to estimate cash flows and expected fair values. Accordingly, it
      is reasonably possible that actual results could vary significantly from
      such estimates.

      Based on its continuing evaluation of recoverability of long-lived theater
      assets, the Company recorded a $6.5 million impairment of long-lived asset
      expense representing the value of assets abandoned or impaired as a result
      of the closing of three second run theaters (20 screens) and one specialty
      theater (3 screens) during the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
      certain similar transactions planned for future periods including the
      closing of 17 second run theaters (124 screens) on May 1, 2000. Impairment
      costs of $500,000, $1,000,000 and $5,000,000 reduced goodwill, other
      assets and theater properties and equipment, respectively.

8.    INCOME TAXES

      As a result of net losses and the Company's inability to recognize a
      benefit for its deferred tax assets, the Company did not record a
      provision for income taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
      1999.

OPERATION.

OVERVIEW

    The following analysis of the financial condition and results of operations
of Silver Cinemas International ("Silver Cinemas") and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, Silver Cinemas, Inc. ("Silver") and Landmark Theatre Corp.
("Landmark") (collectively referred to as the "Company") should be read in
conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
thereto included elsewhere herein.

    In the three months ended through March 31, 2000, the Company opened one
specialty theater with 7 screens and closed three second run theaters (20
screens) and one specialty theater (3 screens) as a result of unfavorable base
renewals or individual theater performance In April 2000 the Company opened one
second run theater (6 screens). In May 2000, the Company closed 15 second run
and 2 first run theaters (134 screens). As of May 12, 2000, the Company's total
theater and screen count is 92 and 395, respectively.

    Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 declined $3.8 million, or
13.4%, to $24.8 million, as a result of decreased attendance. In the three
months ended March 31, 2000, the Company incurred a net loss of $11.4 million
compared with a net loss for the same period of 1999 of $1.0 million.

    The consolidated operating loss for the first three months of 2000 was $7.3
million, compared with an operating income of $1.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. The loss in 2000 included noncash charges totaling $6.5
million for the impairment of value of certain theaters.

</TABLE>


THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1999

    Admissions Revenues. Admissions revenues decreased $2.3 million or 15.6% to
$12.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1999. The decreased admissions revenue was primarily the
result of a 21.2% decrease in attendance from 2,516,487 to 1,983,216 partially
offset by an increase in the average ticket price from $5.94 to $6.36. Landmark
benefits from having an average ticket price that is substantially higher than
the national average ticket and strong customer loyalty due to their dedication
to the specialty film market.

    Concessions Revenues. Concessions revenues decreased $0.4 million or 13.4%
to $2.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in concession revenue was
primarily the result of a decrease in attendance.

    Film Rental Expenses. Film rental expenses as a percentage of admissions
revenue increased from 42.6% to 45.6% as a result of graduated rate film mix.
Landmark's film rental rates are typically below film rental rates of first-run
theaters, which average in the low to mid 50% range.

    Cost of Concessions. Concession costs as a percentage of concession revenue
decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from 17.5% to 16.1%. The reduction is primarily
attributable to concession item mix.

    Payroll and Related Expense. Payroll expense decreased from $2.2 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $2.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000. Payroll per attendee, a key measure for staff efficiency,
increased from $0.87 per attendee to $1.07 per attendee. The increase is
primarily attributable to a decline in attendance and wage increases.

    Occupancy Costs. Occupancy costs increased from $1.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 to $1.8 million for the three months ending March
31, 2000.

    Advertising Expenses. Advertising expenses remained flat at $0.5 million for
the three months ending March 31, 2000 compared to the three months ending March
31, 1999.

    General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased from $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $0.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1999

    Admissions Revenues. Admissions revenue decreased $0.5 million or 8.9% to
$5.0 million during the three months ending March 31, 2000 compared to the three
months ending March 31, 1999. The decreased admission revenue was primarily the
result of a 15.4% decrease in attendance from 3,372,055 to 2,853,334 partially
offset by an increase in the average ticket price from $1.62 to $1.74.


                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13


    Concession Revenues. Concession revenue decreased $0.6 million or 13.4% to
$4.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1999. The decreased concession revenue was primarily the
result of a decrease in attendance.

    Film Rental Expenses. Film rental expenses as a percentage of admissions
revenues declined from 37.1% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared
to 35.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily
attributable to graduated rate film mix.

    Cost of Concessions. Concession costs as a percentage of concession revenue
for the period to period comparison increased from 18.4% of concession sales to
21.2% primarily due to implementation of the Company's reduced price concession
menu at additional locations.

    Payroll and Related Expenses. Payroll expense decreased from $2.0 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $1.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. Payroll per attendee, a key measure for staff efficiency,
increased from $0.60 per attendee to $0.64 per attendee. The increase is
primarily attributable to a decline in attendance.

    Occupancy Costs. Occupancy costs decreased $0.2 million to $2.5 million or
7.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $2.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in occupancy costs is primarily
attributable to lower percentage rents.

    Advertising Expenses. Advertising expenses decreased $0.1 million or 29.0%
from the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $0.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. Advertising expenses comprised 3.7% and 4.6% of total
revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

    General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased from $1.0 million to $1.2 million or 22.0% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Revenues are collected in cash, primarily through box office receipts and
the sale of concession items. Because revenues are received in cash prior to the
payment of related expenses, there are, in effect, no accounts receivable. This,
in combination with minimal inventory requirements, creates a negative working
capital position, which provides certain operating capital.

    During the first quarter of 2000, the Company's capital requirements were
the result of the continued construction of one theater in Chicago. Such capital
expenditures were financed with bank borrowings, and internally generated cash.

    The Company's operating activities provided net cash of approximately $1.5
million during the three months ended March 31, 2000. Net cash provided in
operations resulted primarily from a net loss of $11.4 million, adjusted for
depreciation and amortization expense of $2.7 million, asset impairment charges
of $6.5 million, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of
$3.4 million.

    Cash used by investing activities was approximately $2.2 million, which
consisted primarily of $4.4 million used for construction of new theaters offset
by a reduction of other assets of $2.2 million.

    Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $3.5 million during
the three months ended


                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14


March 31, 2000. Additional debt financing of approximately $6.0 million was
offset by an increase in debt issue costs of approximately $1.0 million and a
decrease in net bank overdrafts of $1.2 million.

    "Same Theater" attendance at the Company's Landmark and Silver theaters has
declined by approximately 21.0% and 16.2% for the three months ending March 31,
2000 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. Management believes this
trend is the result of several factors including the development of megaplexes
in certain markets, changes in film and video release patterns, and the overall
strength of the US economy. If this trend continues, the Company's ability to
generate liquidity will continue to be negatively impacted.

    The preceding statements concerning the attendance declines may constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
The Company warns that many factors could, individually or in aggregate, lead to
further declines in theater attendance, including, without limitation, the
following: consumer spending trends and habits; increased competition in the
theater industry; adverse developments in economic factors influencing the
exhibition industry; and lack of demand for films by the general public. The
Company does not expect to update such forward-looking statements continually as
conditions change, and readers should consider that such statements pertain only
to the date hereof.

    CREDIT AGREEMENT - On October 6, 1999, Farallon Capital Funding, LLC
("Farallon"), as agent, an affiliate thereof, as initial lender and the Company
and its subsidiaries entered into a four year, senior secured credit facility
with aggregate availability of $50 million, subject to a defined real estate
collateral borrowing base (the "Credit Facility"). The $50.0 million facility is
comprised of a revolving credit facility of up to $15.0 million (the
"Revolver"), term loans of up to $17.0 million ("Term A Loan") and term loans of
up to $18.0 million ("Term B Loans"). The Term A Loan was funded in its entirety
on October 8, 1999. Under the Term A Loan and the Revolver, the Company will
utilize borrowings to fund working capital requirements, and for other general
corporate purposes, including, subject to certain conditions, the acquisition
and construction of theaters. The Term B Loans may be used only for repurchasing
the Company's senior subordinated notes, and the amount of Term B Loans will be
limited to the lesser of (i) $18.0 and (ii) the amount by which the real estate
collateral-based borrowing base exceeds the sum of the outstanding principal
balance (including accrued interest) of the Term A Loan and the $15.0 million
revolving loan commitment). At May 12, 2000, the Company's borrowings under the
Revolver totaled $12.4 million. Borrowings under the Credit Facility rank senior
in right of payment to the Notes and is secured by a perfected first priority
security interest in substantially all existing and future assets of the Company
including:(i) fee interests and certain leasehold interests in real property;
(ii) accounts receivable, equipment, inventory, and intangibles; and (iii) the
capital stock of the Company and its subsidiaries.

    Farallon's obligations under the Credit Facility to advance funds at any
time during the four-year term are subject to certain conditions customary in
secured credit facilities, including the absence of a default under the Credit
Facility. The Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other
things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to dispose of
assets, incur additional indebtedness or guarantees, prepay other indebtedness,
pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback
transactions, make investments, loans, or advances, make acquisitions, engage in
mergers or consolidations, make capital expenditures, change the business
conducted by the Company or its subsidiaries or engage in certain corporate
activities. The Company is not currently in compliance with certain
requirements, including its failure to make a scheduled interest payment for the
Company's senior subordinated notes when due on April 15, 2000 and its receipt
of a report from its independent auditors for the year ended December 31, 1999
containing an explanatory paragraph that explains an uncertainty as to the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern and has not obtained a waiver
from Farallon.

    On April 28, 2000, Farallon made an additional $3.9 million advance under
the revolving loan commitment. Commencing April 29, 2000, loans under the Credit
Facility bear annual interest at 17.5%.


                                      -14-
<PAGE>   15


    The Company will be required to restructure its current financing
arrangements and/or seek additional financing sufficient to meet its working
capital needs for fiscal 2000. The Company will utilize the thirty day grace
period allowed under the senior subordinated note indenture to evaluate
restructuring alternatives and has hired professionals in that regard. Failure
to make the scheduled interest payment does not constitute a default under the
senior subordinated note indenture for thirty days. Given that no assurance can
be made that the Company could restructure its current financing arrangements
and/or obtain additional financing, substantial doubt exists about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and
classifications of assets or liabilities that may result from the outcome of
these uncertainties.

    As of March 31, 2000, the Company had $5,763,430 and $155,040 of Series A
Preferred Stock and Convertible Preferred Stock dividends in arrears.

INFLATION

    Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's operations to
date.

SEASONALITY

    The Company's quarterly results of operations tend to be affected by film
release patterns by producers and distributors, and the commercial success of
films. In the past the year-end holiday season and the summer resulted in
higher-than-average quarterly revenues for the Company.

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

           The Company is from time to time a party to legal proceedings that
           arise in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe
           that the resolution of any threatened or pending legal proceedings
           will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 2.    CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

ITEM 3.    DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

           The Company did not make scheduled senior subordinated notes interest
           payments of approximately $5.0 million when due on April 15, 2000 and
           is not currently in compliance with certain requirements of its
           senior secured credit agreement.

           The senior subordinated notes include a restrictive covenant relative
           to the payment of dividends. As of March 31, 2000, aggregate Series A
           Preferred Stock and convertible preferred stock dividends of
           $5,763,430 and $155,040 are in arrears.
