                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and disclosures required for annual financial statements. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
related footnotes for the year ended April 30, 1999 included in the Kings Road
Entertainment, Inc. ("Company" or "Registrant") annual report on Form 10-KSB for
that period.

In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position as of July 31, 1999 and the results of operations and cash flows for
the three months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998 have been included.

The results of operations for the three-month period ended July 31, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended April
30, 1999.

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 periods.

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As has been widely reported, many computer systems process dates based on two
digits for the year of a transaction and may be unable to correctly process
dates in the year 2000 and beyond. The Company believes that all of its computer
systems are year 2000 compliant. Although the Company does not expect year 2000
compliance to have a material adverse effect on its internal operations, it is
possible that year 2000 compliance problems could have a significant adverse
effect on the Company's suppliers and their ability to service the Company and
to accurately process payments received.

Certain amounts for the quarter ended July 31, 1998 have been reclassified to
conform with the presentation of the July 31, 1999 amounts. The
reclassifications have no effect on net income for the quarter ended July 31,
1999.

NOTE B - FILM COSTS

A valuation allowance of $10,376,000 has been recorded to offset the net
deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefits of the tax
assets in the future. In addition, as a result of a change in control of the
Company that occurred in November 1998, Internal Revenue Code section 382
significantly limits the Company's ability to utilize its net operating loss
carryforwards. As a result of this limitation, the Company expects that its
investment tax credit and foreign tax credit carryforwards as well as a
significant amount of its net operating loss carryforwards will expire prior to
utilization by the Company.

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

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

        Subsequent to the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995, the Company has not
produced any new films and has derived revenues almost exclusively from the
exploitation of films produced prior to April 30, 1995. Following the death on
October 4, 1996 of Mr. Stephen Friedman, the Company's founder and then Chairman
of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, the Company explored
various business options, including, among other things, the liquidation of the
Company, the sale of the Company as a going concern to an outside party, the
sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company to an outside party and
the issuance of shares of common stock to an outside party that would provide a
new source of financing for the Company. The Company had discussions with over
twenty outside parties which expressed varying degrees of interest in acquiring
all or part of the Company or in supplying additional capital in return for an
equity interest in the Company.

        On November 6, 1998, pursuant to a Stock Acquisition Agreement, FAB,
MBO, West and RAS purchased 962,360 shares of the Company's common stock
(approximately 50.3% of the Company's then outstanding common stock) from the
Estate and Christopher Trunkey, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, for
a purchase price of $2.35 per share or $2,261,546 in the aggregate. In addition,
MAC agreed that it would, as soon as practicable but in any event within 120
days after November 6, 1998, make or cause to be made an offer to each of the
Company's shareholders other than the Acquirors, the Estate and Mr. Trunkey, for
the purchase of up to ninety percent (90%) of such shareholder's shares at a
price of $2.35 per share. MAC agreed that, in the event the Purchase Offer was
not made within ninety days after November 6, 1998, it would deposit $1,800,000
into escrow to be applied toward the Purchase Offer. FAB agreed to make the
$1,800,000 deposit into escrow in the event MAC did not do so. On February 3,
1999, the Stock Acquisition Agreement was amended to eliminate the Purchase
Offer due to the fact that the Company's closing share price exceeded the $2.35
Purchase Offer price for the previous ten (10) trading days.

        On November 9, 1998, the Company acquired 2,393,235 shares of Immediate,
approximately 19% of Immediate's outstanding common stock, for an aggregate of
$2,300,000 in cash, 1,477,567 newly issued shares of the Company's common stock
and a note payable to the sellers of the stock for $210,803. Immediate is a
diversified entertainment holding company that provides services relating to
music production, audio recording, CD manufacturing, film soundtrack and script
development and operates a mail order music club.

        On May 12, 1999, the Company acquired 140 shares of Star TV AG ("Star"),
approximately 19% of Star's outstanding common stock for $1,000,000 in cash.
Star is a developing cable television network based in Switzerland.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        For the quarter ended July 31, 1999 feature film revenues were
approximately $92,000 as compared to approximately $150,000 for the quarter
ended July 31, 1997. The substantial decrease in feature film revenues of
approximately 39% results primarily from the fact that the Company has not
produced any new films since the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995. Until such
time as the Company either produces new films or develops and implements a new
overall strategic plan, the Company expects that its feature film revenues will
continue to decline. Interest income decreased to approximately $400 for the
quarter ended July 31, 1999 from approximately $32,000 during the same quarter
last year, reflecting the decrease in cash and



                                       10
<PAGE>   11
marketable securities held during the quarter ended July 31, 1999 versus the
same period last year.

        The Company had no costs related to revenue for the quarter ended July
31, 1999 versus approximately $7,000 for the quarter ended July 31, 1998. This
decrease results from the fact that a significant portion of the costs
associated with the Company's films have previously been amortized. Creator and
The Big Easy, for example, generated significant revenues during the quarter
with no amortization of costs associated with those revenues. Selling expenses
decreased to approximately $1,000 during the quarter ended July 31, 1999 versus
approximately $8,000 during the same quarter last year.

        General and administrative costs increased by approximately 90% to
approximately $276,000 during the quarter ended July 31, 1999 versus
approximately $145,000 during the same period last year. This increase results
primarily from increases in professional fees (accounting and consultants),
investor relations costs, financing costs associated with the Convertible Note
and the write-off of certain amounts advanced to third parties. Interest
expense during the quarter ended July 31, 1999 was approximately $26,000
reflecting the interest incurred by the Company on its outstanding notes
payable. During the quarter ended July 31, 1998, the Company had no interest
expense.

        Equity in losses of affiliates was approximately $238,000 during the
quarter ended July 31, 1999 reflecting the Company's share of losses incurred by
Immediate. Immediate has experienced recurring operating losses and has a
working capital deficit. Immediate's management is presently pursuing plans to
increase sales, reduce administrative costs, improve cash flow and obtain
additional financing. Immediate's ability to achieve its operating goals and to
obtain additional financing is uncertain.

        During the quarter ended July 31, 1999, the Company incurred a net loss
of approximately $549,000 versus net income of approximately $40,000 for the
quarter ended July 31, 1998. This loss results primarily from (i) a valuation
allowance recorded to reflect the Company's uncertainty in fully recovering
a certain investment, (ii) the Company's share of losses incurred by Immediate,
(iii) a substantial decrease in feature film revenues due to the fact that the
Company has not produced any new films since the fiscal year ended April 30,
1995 and (iv) increased general and administrative and interest expenses. During
the quarters ended July 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company had no significant
provision for income taxes.



                                       11

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        The production of motion pictures requires substantial capital. In
producing a motion picture, the Company may expend substantial sums for both the
production and distribution of a picture, before that film generates any
revenues. In many instances the Company obtains advances or guarantees from its
distributors but these advances and guarantees generally defray only a portion
of a film's cost. The Company's principal source of working capital during the
quarter ended July 31, 1999 was motion picture licensing income and the proceeds
from the Star Loan. Except for the financing of film production costs and the
repayment of the Convertible Note, management believes that its existing cash
resources will be sufficient to fund its ongoing operations.

        For the quarter ended July 31, 1999, the Company's net cash flow
provided by its operating activities was approximately $873,000, an increase of
approximately $913,000 as compared to approximately $40,000 of net cash flow
used in operating activities during the quarter ended July 31, 1998. During the
quarter ended July 31, 1999, the Company used its cash flow from operations plus
approximately $411,000 of cash flow provided by financing activities to make
investments of $1,000,000 in Star TV and $250,000 in the Merchant Ivory Joint
Venture. SEE NOTE D - INVESTMENT IN STAR TV AND NOTE E - INVESTMENT IN MERCHANT
IVORY JOINT VENTURE. As of July 31, 1999, the Company had cash, cash equivalents
and marketable securities of approximately $48,000 as compared to approximately
$2,612,000 as of July 31, 1998.

FUTURE COMMITMENTS

        On May 12, 1999, the Company used the proceeds from the Convertible Note
to purchase approximately 19% of the outstanding common stock of Star TV AG
("Star") through the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Orwell Properties, Inc.
("Orwell"). Pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement between the Convertible
Note holder and Orwell, the Convertible Note is secured by Orwell's investment
in Star. In addition, Orwell has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the
Company under the Convertible Note.

        If the term of the Convertible Note is not extended on or before April
20, 2000 or is not converted, the Company will need to secure financing to repay
the Convertible Note. There can be no assurance that such financing can be
secured by the Company.

        On May 17, 1999, the Company entered into the Star Loan Agreement
whereby the Company borrowed $250,000 from Star bearing interest at 6% per
annum. The Star Loan was originally due July 19, 1999. By agreement dated July
22, 1999, the due date was extended until August 19, 1999. By further
agreement, the due date was extended until December 22, 1999.

        The Company does not have any other material future commitments.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        The foregoing discussion, as well as the other sections of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB, contains forward-looking statements that
reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and financial
results. Forward-looking statements usually include the verbs "anticipates,"
"believes," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "projects,"
"understands" and other verbs suggesting uncertainty. The Company reminds
shareholders that forward-looking statements are merely predictions and
therefore inherently subject to



                                       12
<PAGE>   13
uncertainties and other factors which could cause the actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements. Potential factors that could
affect forward-looking statements include, among other things, the Company's
ability to identify, produce and complete film projects that are successful in
the marketplace, to arrange financing, distribution and promotion for these
projects on favorable terms in various markets and to attract and retain
qualified personnel. In addition, the Company is currently seeking merger and
acquisition proposals for the Company and its plans, strategies and future
results are subject to the outcome of any such proposals.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
