The Board of Directors
NPC International, Inc.:

We  have  audited  the statement of net assets purchased of the  122  Pizza  Hut
restaurants  (The  Pizza  Hut Units) as of December 25,  1996  and  the  related
statement  of operations for the year then ended.  The financial statements  are
the responsibility of The Pizza Hut Units' management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those  standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of   material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing  the  accounting  principles used and significant  estimates  made  by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In  our  opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,  in
all  material  respects, the financial position of The Pizza  Hut  Units  as  of
December  25, 1996, and the results of their operations for the year then  ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.
(1)Organization and Operations
   The  122  Pizza Hut restaurants (The Pizza Hut Units) are principally located
   in  Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Illinois and Indiana.  The  Pizza  Hut
   Units  are  composed  of  casual  dining  restaurants  and  delivery-carryout
   facilities  featuring the sale of American and Italian cuisine.  Until  March
   1997,  The  Pizza Hut Units were operated by Pizza Hut, Inc., a  wholly-owned
   subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc.

   In  March 1997, The Pizza Hut Units were acquired by NPC International,  Inc.
   and subsidiaries (NPC) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement.

(2)Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
   A  summary of significant accounting policies followed in the preparation  of
   the financial statements of The Pizza Hut Units is set forth below.

       (a)  Basis of Presentation
             The statement of net assets purchased represents the assets of  The
       Pizza Hut Units acquired by NPC and excludes land and buildings owned  by
       Pizza  Hut, Inc., which will be leased by NPC from Pizza Hut, Inc.  under
       the provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

             The  statement of operations includes all costs applicable  to  the
       restaurants which were incurred in connection with the operation  of  The
       Pizza  Hut  Units  and for which specific identification  was  practical,
       including depreciation expense related to buildings to be leased  to  NPC
       and  which  have  been excluded from the accompanying  statement  of  net
       assets  purchased.   Certain costs incurred  by  Pizza  Hut,  Inc.  which
       represent   the   cost   of  doing  business  and  for   which   specific
       identification  to  an individual restaurant is not practical  have  been
       allocated  to  The  Pizza  Hut  Units  based  on  an  average  cost   per
       restaurant.   Interest expense and income taxes have not  been  reflected
       in the statement of operations.

       (b)  Inventories
             Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost (first-in,  first-out
       method) or market.

       (c)  Property and Equipment
             Property and equipment are stated at cost, except for property  and
       equipment  that  have  been  determined to be  impaired,  for  which  the
       carrying  amount  is  reduced to estimated fair value.   Depreciation  of
       equipment  is  recognized using the straight-line method  over  lives  of
       three  to  seven  years.   Amortization  of  leasehold  improvements   is
       recognized  using the straight-line method and is over the  term  of  the
       lease,  which includes option periods probable of exercise, and which  is
       normally in a range of five to twenty years.

       (d)  Intangible Assets
             Goodwill  and reacquired franchise rights are amortized  using  the
       straight-line  method  over a period of twenty years.   Other  intangible
       assets  are  amortized using the straight-line method over the  estimated
       period of benefit.

       (e)  Long-Lived Assets to be Held and Used in the Business
             Long-lived  assets, certain identifiable intangibles  and  goodwill
       related  to those assets to be held and used in the business are reviewed
       for  impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
       the  carrying  amount  of  an  asset or a group  of  assets  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 future  net  cash
       flows  expected  to be generated by the asset.  If the  future  net  cash
       flows  are  less  than  the carrying amount of an asset,  the  impairment
       recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of  the
       asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

       (f)  Advertising
             Advertising expense applicable to The Pizza Hut Units  amounted  to
       $4,111,778  and  is  included in operating expenses in  the  accompanying
       statement of operations.

       (g)  Use of Estimates
              The   preparation  of  financial  statements  in  accordance  with
       generally  accepted  accounting principles  requires  management  of  The
       Pizza  Hut  Units  to  make  estimates and assumptions  that  affect  the
       reported  amounts of assets and disclosure of contingent  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 these estimates.

(3)Property and Equipment
   Restaurant  property  and  equipment at December 25,  1996  consists  of  the
   following:

   Restaurant equipment                                $     18,751,014
   Leasehold improvements                                    10,728,003
   Construction in progress                                     349,220
                                                             29,828,237
   Accumulated depreciation                                (18,776,208)

         Restaurant property and equipment, net        $     11,052,029

   As  described  in note 1(a), the statement of net assets purchased  does  not
   include certain buildings and land owned by Pizza Hut, Inc. which are  to  be
   leased  by  NPC  with  a  net  carrying value of $4,825,522  and  $3,649,410,
   respectively.   Included in depreciation expense is $503,446 related  to  the
   depreciation of such buildings.

(4)Intangible Assets
   Intangible assets at December 25, 1996 consist of the following:

   Goodwill and reacquired franchise rights            $     22,744,091
   Other intangibles                                            662,651
                                                             23,406,742
   Accumulated amortization                                 (7,517,366)

         Intangible assets, net                        $     15,889,376

   Intangible  assets  arose  from the allocation of purchase  prices  of  units
   acquired.   Included  in amortization expense is $1,253,846  related  to  the
   amortization of intangible assets.

(5)Leases
   The  Pizza  Hut Units have commitments under several noncancelable  operating
   leases  for  restaurant  space that expire over the next  ten  years.   These
   leases  generally  provide for rent escalations and contain  renewal  options
   for  periods  ranging  from three to five years and require  the  payment  of
   certain  executory costs such as property taxes, maintenance  and  insurance.
   Rental  payments  include minimum rentals plus contingent  rentals  based  on
   store  sales.   Rental expense for operating leases during 1996 consisted  of
   the following:

   Minimum rentals                                      $    1,830,052
   Contingent rentals                                          190,110

   Rental expense                                       $    2,020,162

   Future  minimum  lease payments under noncancelable operating  leases  as  of
   December 25, 1996 are as follows:

   1997                                                 $    1,821,461
   1998                                                      1,470,809
   1999                                                      1,094,951
   2000                                                        745,643
   2001                                                        520,039
   Thereafter                                                  879,137

   Total minimum lease payments                         $    6,532,040

 (6) Selected Cash Flow Information
   The  accompanying  financial statements include a  statement  of  net  assets
   purchased  which  excludes all operating liabilities.  Operating  liabilities
   have  been  excluded  because  it  is not possible  to  identify  liabilities
   associated  with  The  Pizza Hut Units and because no liabilities  have  been
   assumed  by  NPC.  Since liabilities applicable to The Pizza Hut  Units  have
   not  been identified and presented, a separate statement of cash flows is not
   presented.   Selected cash flow information for the year ended  December  25,
   1996 is as follows:

   Cash flows from operating activities exclusive of
    changes in liabilities and income taxes:
      Earnings before income taxes                     $      2,392,454
      Depreciation and amortization                           4,918,627

(7)Cost Allocations
   As   previously  described  in  note  1(a),  the  accompanying  statement  of
   operations of The Pizza Hut Units includes all costs applicable to The  Pizza
   Hut  Units which were incurred in connection with the operation of The  Pizza
   Hut  Units  and  for  which specific identification was practical  which  are
   comprised  of  cost  of  food  and beverage, labor  and  operating  expenses,
   depreciation  expense,  amortization expense and  provision  for  impairment.
   General  and administrative costs incurred by Pizza Hut, Inc. which represent
   part  of the cost of doing business and for which specific identification  to
   an  individual  restaurant is not practical are allocated to  The  Pizza  Hut
   Units based on an average cost per restaurant.  Costs allocated include  such
   items  as costs related to executive management, accounting, data processing,
   legal, certain employee benefits and certain occupancy costs.  Management  of
   NPC  believes  that the allocation method is reasonable and that  it  is  not
   practical  to  estimate what The Pizza Hut Units' costs would  have  been  if
   they had operated as an unaffiliated entity.

Notes to pro forma statements

1.   Basis of presentation - The pro forma financial statements include the
accounts and results of operation for NPC International, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the Company), and 122 Pizza Hut units (the Pizza Hut Units) owned and operated
by Pizza Hut, Inc. (PHI) a wholly-owned subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc.  The
statements of the Company are as of and for the 52 weeks ended March 25, 1997,
and the statements of the Pizza Hut Units are as of and for the 52 weeks ended
December 25, 1996. These statements have been prepared in accordance with
Article 11 of  the Securities & Exchange Commission Regulation S-X.
   
2.   Description of transaction - In March 1997 the Pizza Hut Units were
acquired by the Company pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement.  The
transaction closed in two distinct phases.  Phase I consisted of 60 units with a
purchase price of $27.3 million and closed on March 6, 1997.  Phase II consisted
of 62 units with the purchase price of $28.1 million and closed on March 27,
1997, subsequent to the Company's fiscal year-end.

3.   Balance Sheet

a)   A full balance sheet has not been presented for the Pizza Hut Units because
PHI does not record certain transactions on an individual unit basis.
Alternatively, a statement of net assets purchased has been presented which
represents the assets of the Pizza Hut Units acquired by the Company and
excludes land and buildings owned by PHI which will be leased by the 
Company from PHI.
      
b)   The Company's year end balance sheet reflects facilities and equipment of
$3,741,000 and franchise rights of $23,929,000 based on the purchase price
allocation for Phase I of the transaction.  The 60 units consisting of the
Phase I transaction are also included in the statement of net assets 
purchased of the Pizza Hut Units.  Therefore, the pro forma adjustments 
are net of the reversal of these amounts to avoid double counting the 
effect of the Phase I transaction.
      
4.   Statement of Operations
   
a)   Interest expense and income taxes have not been reflected in the statement
of operations of the Pizza Hut Units.  Pro forma adjustments have been made for
these items.  To conform the statement of operations of the Pizza Hut Units to
the presentation used by the Company, depreciation expense of $2,547,000 and
amortization expense of $1,118,000 has been included in other operating
expenses.  The provision for impairment of $249,000 presented in the statement
of operations for the Pizza Hut Units has been included in general and
administrative expenses.
      
b)   The Company's statement of operations reflects the results of the 60 Phase
I units for the twenty days from closing to the Company's fiscal year end.  The
results for this period include sales of $1,831,000, cost of sales and direct
labor of $528,000 and $609,000 respectively, and other operating expenses of
$460,000 which have been removed in the pro forma adjustments.
     
c)   The pro forma adjustments for other operating expenses include a four
percent royalty to be paid by the Company to PHI, depreciation expense related
to fixed assets of $1,366,000, the reversal of $3,665,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense included in the statement of the Pizza Hut Units, and a net
increase in rental expense of $1,100,000 related to facilities that will
continue to be owned by PHI and leased by the Company.  The Company will
depreciate facilities and equipment acquired in the transaction over an average
of six years.
      
d)  Depreciation and amortization expense includes a pro forma adjustment to
increase expense $127,000 related to the amortization of franchise rights over a
35 years based on the 20 year term of the franchise agreement plus one 15 year
renewal option.

e)   Interest expense has been computed using an average annual borrowing rate,
as of the beginning of the fiscal year, of 7.7%.

f)   The Company's effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended March 25, 1997
was 38.76%, which has been used to compute the pro forma tax adjustment.
