                       THE GOOD GUYS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
   prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
   reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
   necessary for a fair presentation of the information contained therein. The
   results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
   are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
   year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
   with the financial statements, notes and supplementary data included and
   incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
   fiscal year ended September 30, 1996.

2. The weighted average number of shares outstanding during the quarter has been
   computed by taking the number of days each share is outstanding and dividing
   by the number of days in the quarter. Stock options are not included in the
   calculation of earnings per share for the quarters ended December 31, 1996
   and 1995 as the dilutive effect of the options was less than 3%.

3. The Company amended and restated its committed unsecured line of credit
   agreement on December 27, 1996. The credit agreement allows borrowings of up
   to $50,000,000 and includes a standby letter of credit facility. The
   committed agreement allows the Company to borrow under other credit
   facilities provided the sum of such other borrowings and any borrowings under
   the committed credit agreement does not exceed $50,000,000. There were no
   borrowings under these credit facilities at December 31, 1996.

   The committed agreement provides the Company with several different borrowing
   alternatives with interest rates based on the prime rate or other domestic
   and international money market rates. The agreement requires maintenance of
   certain financial loan covenants, including minimum tangible net worth, debt
   to equity ratio, restrictions on capital expenditures and prohibits payment
   of cash dividends. The Company was in compliance with each of the covenants
   for the quarter ended December 31, 1996.

Item 2   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements, which are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to increases in promotional
activities of the Company's competitors, changes in consumer buying attitudes,
the presence or absence of new products or product features in the Company's
merchandise categories, changes in vendor support for advertising and
promotional programs, changes in the Company's merchandise sales mix, general
economic conditions, and other factors referred to in the Company's 1996 Annual
Report on Form 10-K under "Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements".

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 were $286.6 million, a
decrease of 7% from sales of $306.7 million for the quarter ended December 31,
1995. During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, comparable store sales declined
12% in line with the general trend experienced in the consumer electronics
industry. The decrease was partially offset by sales related to the increase
in total number of stores in operation from 70 at December 31, 1995 to 76 at
December 31, 1996.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 25.0% for the quarter ended
December 31, 1996, a 2.3 percentage point improvement overall, which represents
a gross margin improvement in all product categories.

For the quarter ended December 31, 1996, selling, general and administrative
expenses were 23.8% of net sales compared to 19.1% for the comparable fiscal 
1996 period. The increase in selling, general and administrative costs as a
percentage of sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 is primarily due to
the decline in same store sales and an increase in net advertising expense.

The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 was 40.0%
compared with 40.3% for the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 1996 was $2.0 million ($0.15 per
share) or 0.7% of net sales for the period. These results compare to net income
of $6.7 million ($0.50 per share) or 2.2% of net sales for the same period in
fiscal 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $69.8 million. Net cash
provided by operating activities was $10.3 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1996, compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended December
31, 1995. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities, as compared
with the first quarter of fiscal 1996, was primarily due to a reduction in lease
financing receivables, an increase in accrued expenses, partially offset by the
decrease in net income. Net cash provided by operations also reflects the
Company's continued control over its inventory levels and corresponding accounts
payable.

Net cash provided by investing activities reflects lease financing of property
and equipment partially offset by expenditures for stores, distribution
facilities and administrative property and equipment.

On December 29, 1996, the Company amended and restated its existing $75 million
credit agreement with a new $50 million agreement, which otherwise is
substantially unchanged from the previous agreement. The credit agreement
contains restrictive loan covenants which if violated could be used as a basis
for termination of the agreement. For the quarter ending December 31, 1996, the 
Company was in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement. There
were no borrowings outstanding under the credit agreement at December 31, 1996.

The Company expects to fund its working capital requirements and expansion plans
with a combination of cash flows from operations, normal trade credit, financing
arrangements and continued use of lease financing.

The Company believes that because of competition among manufacturers and the
technological changes in the consumer electronics industry, inflation has not
had a material effect on net sales and cost of sales.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1.     Legal Proceedings

         On September 7, 1995, the Company was named as a defendant in two
purported class actions, entitled Long v. Packard Bell Electronics, et al., Case
No. 7515706, filed in Orange County Superior Court on August 21, 1995, and
Sutter v. Acer America Corporation, et al., Case No. 95A505027, Sacramento
County Superior Court. In both cases, plaintiffs have named a large number of
computer manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers, alleging that since 1986 the
defendants have misrepresented to the public the screen size of certain computer
monitors. In addition to these two cases, there are numerous other cases pending
around the State of California (and in other parts of the country) making
essentially the same allegations against a variety of computer manufacturers,
wholesalers and retailers. All of the California cases have been coordinated in
a single court in San Francisco. At the end of June 1996, the Court granted the
Company's demurrers on the grounds (a) that a prior settlement of an action
brought by the California Attorney General precludes relitigation of the same
issues in this case; and (b) that plaintiffs lack standing to bring class claims
against the Company because none of the named plaintiffs claims to have
purchased any computer monitors from the Company. Plaintiffs have indicated that
they plan to appeal these rulings. Pending such an appeal, after extended
settlement negotiations, the Company has agreed to participate in a settlement
between plaintiffs and most of the manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers
named as defendants in the cases. The settlement, to which the Company agreed to
contribute a nominal amount, is subject to approval by the Court.

         On December 30, 1996, Geoffrey H. Gilbert and Bay Area Telecom, Inc.
filed a complaint against the Company and nine other named defendants entitled
Gilbert v. Bay Area Cellular Telephone Company, et al., San Francisco Superior
Court No. 983598. The defendants include the two cellular telephone service
providers in the San Francisco Bay Area, Bay Area Cellular Telephone Company
("BACTC") and GTE Mobilnet of California Limited Partnership; several other
providers of cellular telephone service, including Airtouch Cellular Company,
Pactel Mobile Services, American Telephone & Telegraph Co., and McCaw Cellular
Company; a manufacturer of cellular telephones, Motorola, Inc.; and one other
large retail chain store, Circuit City Stores, Inc. Plaintiffs, a small agent of
BACTC offering cellular telephone products and service in the San Francisco area
and its principal owner, allege a wide variety of antitrust and fraud-related
claims against the cellular telephone service providers, including alleged
conspiracy to fix cellular telephone rates. As against the Company and the other
retailer defendant, plaintiffs allege a conspiracy to sell cellular telephone
equipment below cost with the intent to drive plaintiffs out of business, in
violation of the California Cartwright Act and Unfair Practices Act, as well as
unfair trade practices. Plaintiffs seek treble damages under the California
antitrust laws. The complaint has not yet been served on the Company, and it is
too soon to be able to express an opinion as to the likely outcome of this
matter. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims alleged
in the lawsuit and intends to defend the action vigorously if and when it is
served.

(A)      The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
         quarter has been computed by taking the number of days each share is
         outstanding and dividing by the number of days in the quarter.

(B)      Stock options used in the primary earnings per share are calculated
         using the average market price. Stock options in fully diluted earnings
         per share are calculated using the higher of the ending market price or
         the average market price.
