FIDELITY NATIONAL FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A - Basis of Financial Statements
The financial information included in this report includes the accounts of
Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the
"Company") and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. All adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals
considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. This report
should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1995, as amended. Certain reclassifications have
been made in the 1995 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to
the classifications used in 1996.
Note B - Dividends
On June 17, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of
$.07 per share, payable on July 22, 1996, to stockholders of record on July 11,
1996.
Note C - Proposed Acquisition of Giant Group, Ltd.
In February of 1996, the Company proposed a merger with Giant Group, Ltd.
("Giant"). The Company had purchased 705,489 shares (or 14.8%) of Giant's
outstanding common stock. The Company's intent in acquiring Giant was to utilize
its liquid assets to take advantage of investment opportunities in non-interest
rate sensitive businesses. On April 26, 1996, the parties reached a settlement
agreement pursuant to which Giant repurchased its shares from Fidelity. In
addition, as part of the settlement, Fidelity acquired 767,807 shares (or 4.9%)
of Rally's Hamburgers, Inc. ("Rally's") stock from Giant for $.83 per share, as
well as an option to purchase additional shares of Rally's common stock.
Note D - Acquisitions
On April 1, 1996, the Company completed its acquisition of Nations Title Inc.
The acquisition firmly positioned Fidelity National Financial, Inc. as the
nation's fourth largest title insurance underwriter. Nations Title Inc. and its
three wholly-owned underwriting subsidiaries, Nations Title Insurance Company,
Nations Title Insurance of New York Inc. and National Title Insurance of New
York Inc., substantially expanded the Company's national agency network and
increased its market share in the more traditional agency driven states. The
Company acquired one hundred percent of the outstanding stock of Nations Title
Inc. for an adjusted purchase price of $19.3 million plus 176,000 shares ($2.1
million) of Fidelity National Financial, Inc.'s common stock. This transaction
has been accounted for as a purchase.
Selected unaudited pro forma combined results of operations for the six-month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, assuming the acquisition occurred on
January 1, 1996 and 1995, are presented as follows:

On April 4, 1996, the Company purchased 17% of the outstanding common stock of
National Alliance Marketing Group, Inc. ("National"), a California corporation,
for $566,667; together with a warrant to acquire an additional 14% of National
common stock. In addition to the $566,667, the Company loaned $1,200,000 to
National at closing at a rate of prime plus one percent. Subsequently, the
Company agreed to increase the credit facility from $1,200,000 to $1,700,000. In
consideration for the increase in the credit facility National agreed to
increase the warrant shares which the Company can purchase. If the entire
$1,700,000 is borrowed the Company may purchase an additional 34% of the
outstanding shares of National. The transaction closed on July 12, 1996,
following the approval of the transaction by the California Department of
Insurance. National is the parent company of Alliance Home Warranty Company, a
California insurance company. Alliance sells home warranty plans to buyers of
resale homes, primarily in the Central and Southern California markets. A home
warranty contract generally promises the repair or replacement of major
operating systems and built-in appliances inside a home for a period of one
year.

<PAGE> 8
On May 29, 1996, the Company acquired 19.8% of the outstanding common stock of
Smith/Norris Corporation ("Smith/Norris"), a California corporation, together
with a warrant to acquire an additional 20% of Smith/Norris common stock.
Smith/Norris is a privately held software development corporation which focuses
on a family of image-enabled records systems including imaging, indexing,
reporting, cashiering and accounting software for county and city government
departments. As an additional part of the transaction, the Company is
establishing a credit facility in an amount up to $2,000,000 to finance future
growth.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Total revenue for the second quarter of 1996 increased 79.7% to $171.6 million
from $95.5 million in the second quarter of 1995. Total revenue for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1996 increased 66.9% to $298.0 million from
$178.6 for the comparable 1995 period. The increase in the quarter and six-month
revenue amounts can be attributed to favorable order counts and increased
closings resulting from continued lower mortgage interest rates and the
Company's expanded presence in the market, including the Company's acquisition
of Nations Title Inc., which closed on April 1, 1996.
Interest and investment income increased 17.1% to $4.1 million in the second
quarter of 1996 from $3.5 million in the second quarter of 1995. For the
six-month period ended June 30, 1996, interest and investment income was $8.2
million, a 39.0% increase over the $5.9 million of interest and investment
income earned in the comparable 1995 period. The increase in interest and
investment income earned during the 1996 periods is primarily due to an increase
in the average invested asset base and an improvement in net realized gains
compared to the same periods in 1995. Net realized gains from the sale of
investments were $784,000 in the second quarter of 1996 as compared to net
realized gains of $510,000 in the corresponding 1995 period. Net realized gains
for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were $2.0 million and
$109,000, respectively.
The Company's operating expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and other
operating expenses which are incurred as title insurance orders are received and
processed by the Company's operations. Title insurance premiums and escrow fees
are recognized as income at the time the underlying real estate transaction
closes. As a result, revenue lags approximately 60-90 days behind expenses and
therefore gross margins may fluctuate.
Personnel costs include both base salaries and commissions paid to employees and
are the most significant operating expense incurred by the Company. These costs
generally fluctuate with the level of orders opened and closed and with the mix
of revenue between direct and agency operations. Personnel costs, as a
percentage of total revenue, have decreased to 32.7% for the three-month period
ended June 30, 1996 from 41.5% for the corresponding period in 1995. Personnel
costs as a percentage of total revenue for the six-month period ended June 30,
1996 have decreased to 35.9% from 41.6% for the corresponding 1995 period.
Other operating expenses consist primarily of facilities expenses, title plant
maintenance, premium taxes (which insurance underwriters are required to pay on
title premiums in lieu of franchise and other state taxes), escrow losses,
courier services, computer services, professional services, general insurance,
trade and notes receivable allowances and depreciation. Other operating expenses
decreased as a percentage of total revenue to 22.8% in the second quarter of
1996 from 29.9% in the second quarter of 1995. As a percentage of total revenue,
other operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 decreased
to 24.3% from 30.2% for the same period in 1995.
The period over period decreases are primarily the result of the increase in
total revenue, as well as the change in the direct operation and agency
operation title premium mix. The addition of Nations Title Inc. title premiums,
which are primarily agency related, has provided a balance to direct operation
and agency revenue. In previous periods the majority of title premiums and total
revenue were generated by direct operations, which results in higher personnel
costs and other operating expenses.
The Company has also implemented and remains committed to stringent cost control
measures which are designed to reduce expenses and maximize efficiency by
maintaining expenses, including personnel costs and other operating expenses, at
levels consistent with revenue production and business mix.

<PAGE> 9
Agent commissions represent the portion of policy premiums retained by agents
pursuant to the terms of their respective agency contracts. Agent commissions
were 80.2% of agent policy premiums in the second quarter of 1996 compared to
76.5% of agent policy premiums in the second quarter of 1995, and 79.0% and
76.1% of agency premiums for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The period over period increases in agent commissions as a
percentage of agency premiums are attributable to the fact that the average
commissions paid to agents acquired in the Nations Title Inc. acquisition exceed
those paid to the former agent base. The combination of higher agency commission
rates and the significant agency revenue generated by the Nations Title Inc.
acquisition have resulted in higher overall commissions as a percentage of
agency premiums.
The provision for claim losses includes an estimate of anticipated title claims
and major claims. The estimate of anticipated title claims is accrued as a
percentage of title premium revenue based on the Company's historical loss
experience and other relevant factors. The Company monitors its claims
experience on a continual basis and adjusts the provision for claim losses
accordingly. Based on recently completed loss development studies, the Company
believes that as a result of its underwriting and claims handling practices, as
well as the refinancing business of prior years, the Company will maintain a
trend of favorable claim loss experience. The Company has provided for claim
losses at 7.0% of title insurance premiums prior to the impact of major claim
expense, recoupments and premium rates and Company loss experience in the state
of Texas. (Premiums are generally higher in Texas for similar coverage than in
other states, while loss experience is comparable. As a result, losses as a
percentage of premiums are lower.) Application of these factors resulted in a
net provision for claim losses as a percentage of premiums of 7.3% and 6.8% for
the three-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and 7.2% and
6.9% for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Interest expense is incurred by the Company in financing its capital asset
purchases and certain acquisitions. Interest expense consists of interest
related to the Company's outstanding debt and the amortization of original issue
discount and debt issuance costs related to the Liquid Yield Option Notes
("LYONs"). Interest expense of "non-LYONs" debt totaled $1.1 million and
$965,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively;
and $2.0 million and $2.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively. The LYONs related component of interest expense amounted
to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 1996 and $1.2 million for the second
quarter of 1995; and $2.6 million and $2.4 million for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Interest rates being paid by the
Company in 1996 are lower than those paid in 1995 as a result of debt
refinancing and decreases in certain rates (i.e., prime rate and LIBOR) to which
certain of the interest rates being paid by the Company are indexed.
Income tax expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, as
a percentage of earnings before income taxes, was 40.9% and 22.8%, respectively.
Income tax expense (benefit) for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, as a percentage of earnings (loss) before income taxes, including the
extraordinary loss on the early retirement of debt in 1995, was 39.8% and
(52.0%), respectively. The fluctuations in income tax expense (benefit) can be
attributed to the income (loss) mix, operating income versus investment income,
and the characteristics of investment income, taxable versus tax exempt.
In order to reduce interest expense incurred and interest rates paid, the
Company determined that prepayment of the Senior Secured Notes (the "Senior
Notes") issued in March 1993 would be in the best interests of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Senior Note Agreement, the Company
provided for the Make Whole Provision, as defined, and related expenses in the
first quarter of 1995. This prepayment amount of $1.25 million, before related
income taxes, has been reflected as an extraordinary item in the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six-month period ended June 30,
1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's insurance subsidiaries and wholly owned underwritten title
companies (the "UTCs") collect premiums and pay claims and operating expenses.
Fluctuations in operating cash flows are primarily the result of increases or
decreases in revenue. The insurance subsidiaries also have cash flow sources
derived from investment income, repayments of principal and proceeds from sales
and maturities of investments and dividends and distributions from subsidiaries.
Positive cash flow from the insurance subsidiaries is invested primarily in
short term investments, medium term bonds and certain equity securities. Cash,
cash equivalents and short term investments held by the Company's insurance
subsidiaries and UTCs provide liquidity for projected claims and operating
expenses.
9
<PAGE> 10
As a holding company, the Company receives cash from its subsidiaries as
reimbursement for operating and other administrative expenses it incurs. The
reimbursements are executed within the guidelines of various management
agreements between the holding company and its subsidiaries. The Company's cash
requirements include debt service, operating expenses, taxes and dividends on
its Common Stock. The Company believes that all anticipated cash requirements
for current operations will be met from internally generated funds and short
term bank borrowings through existing credit facilities.
One of the additional significant sources of the Company's funds is dividend
distributions from its insurance subsidiaries and UTCs. The insurance
subsidiaries and UTCs ability to pay dividends and make distributions is
restricted by state regulations. Each state of domicile regulates the extent to
which the Company's title underwriters and UTCs can pay dividends or make other
distributions to the Company.
The short and long term liquidity requirements of the Company and its
subsidiaries are monitored regularly to match cash inflows with cash
requirements. The Company and subsidiaries forecast their daily cash needs and
periodically review their short and long term projected sources and uses of
funds, as well as the asset, liability, investment and cash flow assumptions
underlying these projections.
Part II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 4. Submission of Matters to Vote of Security Holders
On June 17, 1996, the Company held its Annual Meeting of
