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

NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the three
months ended June 30, 1995 include the accounts of Image Entertainment, Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiary U.S. Laser Video Distributors, Inc. (collectively,
the "Company").  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1995 and the related
consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 of the Company included herein are unaudited;
however, such information reflects all adjustments of a normal recurring nature
which management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of results for
the interim periods.  The accompanying consolidated financial information for
the three months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 should be read in conjunction with
the Financial Statements, the Notes thereto and Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's March
31, 1995 Form 10-K.

Certain 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1995
presentation.

Sales are seasonal in nature, but also vary with the popularity of titles in
release.  The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 1995 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal
year ending March 31, 1996.

NOTE 2.  ACQUISITION.

Effective June 8, 1995, Image NewCo., Inc. ("NewCo"),a newly created wholly-
owned subsidiary, acquired and assumed substantially all of the assets and
liabilities, respectively, of V.T. Laser, Inc., a privately held New Jersey
based corporation doing business as "U.S. Laser Video Distributors," for a
purchase price of approximately $3.1 million in cash.  The name of NewCo was
subsequently changed to U.S. Laser Video Distributors, Inc. ("U.S. Laser").
U.S. Laser is a nonexclusive distributor of optical disc programming and the
publisher of LASERVIEWS: America's Laser Disc Magazine, a bimonthly consumer
periodical focusing on product announcements, software reviews and articles of
general interest to the laserdisc consumer. U.S. Laser has been in the laserdisc
distribution business since 1985.

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Accordingly, the acquired assets and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair
market value on the acquisition date.  The operating results of U.S. Laser, for
the 22 day period from the acquisition date to June 30, 1995, are included in
the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended
June 30, 1995.  The purchase price approximated the fair market value of the net
assets acquired, therefore, the related goodwill recorded was immaterial.  U.S.
Laser's net sales and net income since its acquisition were immaterial to the
consolidated balances for the three months ended June 30, 1995. The acquisition
of U.S. Laser does not qualify as a significant subsidiary and accordingly,
proforma information is not presented.

</TABLE>
Production costs are net of accumulated amortization of $4,758,072 and
$4,838,547 at June 30, 1995 and March 31, 1995, respectively.

NOTE 4.  INCOME TAXES.

Income taxes were computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be
applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and
evaluation by management.  The majority of Federal and a portion of state income
taxes are offset by the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

NOTE 5.  NET INCOME PER SHARE.

Net income per share was based on the weighted average number of common shares
and common share equivalents (e.g., options and warrants), if dilutive,
outstanding for each of the periods presented. The amount of dilution to be
reflected in net income per share was computed by application of the treasury
stock method.  In periods where the amount of common stock issuable if all
options and warrants are deemed exercised exceeds 20% of the total shares
outstanding at the end of the period, the treasury stock method was modified, as
required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, to adequately reflect
the dilutive effect of options and warrants on net income per share.

Under the modified treasury stock method, net income per share data were
computed as if all outstanding options and warrants were exercised at the
beginning of the period (or on the issuance date, if issued during the period)
and as if the funds obtained thereby were applied as follows:  first to
repurchase up to 20% of the outstanding shares at the average market price
during the period, then any remaining proceeds were applied to reduce long-term
debt and, if any proceeds remained thereafter, such proceeds were applied to
invest in short-term U.S. government securities.  If the result of the foregoing
application of proceeds had an aggregate dilutive effect on net income per
share, the net income per share calculation must reflect the shares issuable
upon the assumed exercise of options and warrants, net of the assumed repurchase
of shares, and adjustments to net income resulting from the assumed application
of proceeds.  If, on the other hand, the aggregate effect was anti-dilutive,
common share equivalents and adjustments to net income resulting from the
assumed application of proceeds were excluded from the calculation of net income
per share.

The effects of the application of the modified treasury stock method were
included in determining net income per share for the June 1995 quarter and were
excluded from the per-share amounts for the June 1994 quarter.

Fully diluted net income per share was not presented for the periods ended June
30, 1995 and 1994 since the amounts did not differ significantly from the
primary net income per share.

NOTE 6.  REVOLVING CREDIT AND TERM LOAN FACILITY.

At June 30, 1995, the Company had $2,635,182 in borrowings outstanding under its
November 15, 1994, three year, $15,000,000 revolving credit and term loan
facility with Foothill Capital Corporation. The Borrowings are secured by
substantially all of the Company's assets and bear interest at prime plus 1.5%
(10.5% at June 30, 1995).

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

GENERAL

          Since 1983, the Company has distributed a broad range of programming
on laserdisc for home viewing.  The Company generally enters into license
agreements whereby it acquires the exclusive right to manufacture and distribute
laserdisc programming.  In addition, the Company acts as an exclusive and
nonexclusive wholesale distributor of laserdisc programming.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          The Company's net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1995
increased 12.6% to $18,129,257 from $16,102,580 for the three months ended June
30, 1994.  Operating income increased 16.8% to $1,346,359 for the June 1995
quarter from $1,152,305 for the June 1994 quarter.  Net income increased 70.2%
to $1,258,696, or $.09 per share, for the June 1995 quarter from $739,519, or
$.06 per share, for the June 1994 quarter.

THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1994

          Net sales for the June 1995 quarter increased 12.6% to $18,129,257
from $16,102,580 for the June 1994 quarter.  This increase is a result of
stronger catalogue title sales, the acquisition of U.S. Laser (see Note 2 to the
                                                               ---              
consolidated financial statements), and sales of salvaged inventory retained as
part of the June 1994 insurance settlement relating to the January 17, 1994
Northridge earthquake.  Net sales are also affected by the popularity of new
releases.

          Cost of laserdisc sales increased to $14,123,659 for the June 1995
quarter from $12,500,331 for the June 1994 quarter.  As a percentage of net
sales, cost of laserdisc sales for the June 1995 quarter increased to 77.9% from
77.6% for the June 1994 quarter.  During the June 1995 quarter, sales of
salvaged inventory decreased cost of laserdisc sales as a percentage of net
sales to 77.9% from 79.7%. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net
sales for the June 1995 quarter was due primarily to the fluctuation in sales
mix described below and a June 1995 catalogue title sales promotion and, in part
to the acquisition of U.S. Laser (U.S. Laser has substantially lower margins as
a pure nonexclusive distributor).  The sales mix of higher-margin exclusive
product and lower-margin nonexclusive product and the margins within each
category vary with the availability and popularity of titles and the Company's
marketing emphasis.  Lower-margin nonexclusive product sales accounted for 12.7%
and 10.6% of net sales for June 1995 and 1994 quarters, respectively.

          Selling expenses for the June 1995 quarter increased 22.4% to $912,547
from $745,526 for the June 1994 quarter.  As a percentage of net sales, selling
expenses for the June 1995 quarter increased to 5.0% from 4.6% for the June 1994
quarter.  An increase in market development funds provided to customers for
advertising, marketing and related purposes as well as the acquisition of U.S.
Laser accounted for the percentage increase.

          General and administrative expenses for the June 1995 quarter
increased 16.8% to $1,050,010 from $898,657 for the June 1994 quarter.  As a
percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses for the June 1995
quarter increased to 5.8% from 5.6% for the June 1994 quarter.  The acquisition
of U.S. Laser as well as higher depreciation expense related to the creative
service department's digital pre-press system primarily accounted for the
absolute dollar and percentage increase.

          Amortization of production costs for the June 1995 quarter decreased
13.5% to $696,682 from $805,761 for the June 1994 quarter.  This decrease is
attributable to cost savings afforded by the creative service department's
digital pre-press system installed in December 1994 which has substantially
reduced

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
the outsourcing of laserdisc jacket film color separations.  Amortization of
production costs is also a function of the timing and number of Image exclusive
titles placed into production.

          Interest expense was $30,864 for the June 1995 quarter, a 94.0%
decrease from $510,503 in combined interest expense and amortization of deferred
financing costs for the June 1994 quarter. Improved cash flow from operations
and the November 1994 refinancing of senior notes with a revolving credit
facility resulted in substantially less borrowings outstanding in the June 30,
1995 quarter.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

          The Company's working capital requirements vary primarily with the
level of its licensing, production and distribution activities.  The principal
uses of working capital are for program licensing costs (i.e., royalty payments,
                                                         ----                   
including advances, to program suppliers), distribution fee advances,
manufacturing and production costs, costs of acquiring finished product for
wholesale distribution, principal and interest payments on long-term debt and
selling, general and administrative expenses.  Working capital requirements
increase as licensing and distribution activities increase.  Working capital has
historically been provided by private sales of common stock, notes representing
long-term debt, bank borrowings and cash flows from operations.  For the June
1995 quarter, operating activities provided cash and cash equivalents of
$1,855,206, investing activities used cash and cash equivalents of $3,249,170
and financing activities provided cash and cash equivalents of $2,065,391,
resulting in a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $671,427.

          Effective June 8, 1995, the Company acquired and assumed substantially
all of the assets and liabilities, respectively, of V.T. Laser, Inc., a
privately held New Jersey based corporation doing business as "U.S. Laser Video
Distributors," for a purchase price of approximately $3.1 million in cash.  The
transaction was funded through operating cash flow and borrowings under the
Company's revolving credit facility.

          At June 30, 1995, the Company had $2,635,182 in borrowings outstanding
under its November 15, 1994, three year, $15,000,000 revolving credit and term
loan facility with Foothill Capital Corporation ("Foothill") and had borrowing
availability of $5,246,176 under the revolving credit and term loan facility.
The Borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and bear
interest at prime plus 1.5% (10.5% at June 30, 1995).  The facility agreement
requires the Company to comply with certain financial and operating covenants.
With respect to the June 8, 1995 acquisition of U.S. Laser, Foothill waived
compliance with certain covenants which restrict corporate acquisitions and
related expenditures. At June 30, 1995, the Company was in compliance with all
financial and other operating covenants.

          At June 30, 1995, the Company had $2,990,000 of outstanding letters of
credit of which $990,000 and $2,000,000 were issued and guaranteed,
respectively, by Foothill and expire on November 15, 1995. These letters of
credit secure balances due to program suppliers.

          During the June 1995 quarter, the Company repurchased 86,200 shares of
its common stock for $602,564 under its stock repurchase program approved by the
Company's Board of Directors on January 16, 1995.

          At June 30, 1995, the Company had license obligations for royalty
advances and minimum guarantees and exclusive distribution fee obligations for
minimum guarantees of approximately $5,697,000 for the remainder of fiscal 1996,
$3,969,000 during fiscal 1997, $4,358,000 during fiscal 1998, $4,619,000 during
fiscal 1999 and $2,627,000 during fiscal 2000.  These advances and guarantees
are recoupable against royalties and distribution fees earned by the licensors
and program suppliers, respectively.  Depending upon the competition for license
and exclusive distribution rights, the Company may have to pay increased
advances, guarantees and/or royalty rates in order to acquire or retain such
rights in the future.

                                       10

          Management believes its internal and external sources of funding are
adequate to meet anticipated operating needs for the next twelve months.

SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK

          The Company continues to aggressively license new programming for
laserdisc distribution as well as seek to renew and extend relationships with
existing studios as distribution and/or license agreements mature.  The Company
believes the laserdisc industry will continue its growth through the turn of the
century.

          In addition to its laserdisc licensing and distribution, the Company
continues to seek investment opportunities in growth oriented companies
complementary to the Company's existing operations, such as proprietary content
production or software distribution businesses.  Should suitable investment
opportunities arise that would require funds in excess of those provided by
operations and availability under the Company's revolving credit facility,
additional financing sources may be sought.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                          ----------------------------

The Board of Directors
Image Entertainment, Inc.

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Image
Entertainment, Inc. as of June 30, 1995, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended June
30, 1995 and 1994 in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and
Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants.  All information included in these financial statements is the
representation of the management of Image Entertainment, Inc.

A review of interim financial information consists principally of obtaining an
understanding of the system for the preparation of interim financial
information, applying analytical review procedures to financial data, and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is
substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with general accepted
auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not
express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for
them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet of Image Entertainment, Inc. as of March 31, 1995,
