                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
Board of Directors and Shareholders
ShowBiz Pizza Time, Inc.
Irving, Texas
 
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ShowBiz
Pizza Time, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994
and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 29, 1995.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of ShowBiz Pizza Time, Inc. and
subsidiary as of December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 29, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
 
     As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company changed its method of accounting for preopening costs in 1994.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993,
                    DECEMBER 30, 1994 AND DECEMBER 29, 1995
 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
  Operations:
 
     ShowBiz Pizza Time, Inc. (the "Company") operates and franchises family
restaurant entertainment centers as Chuck E. Cheese's restaurants, and through
BHC Acquisition Corporation ("BAC"), its wholly owned subsidiary, also operated
Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe restaurants. The Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe restaurants
were sold effective May 5, 1994.
 
  Fiscal year:
 
     The Company's fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks and ends on the Friday nearest
December 31. References to 1993, 1994 and 1995 are for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 1993, December 30, 1994 and December 29, 1995, respectively. Fiscal
years 1993, 1994 and 1995 were each 52 weeks in length.
 
  Basis of consolidation:
 
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and BAC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.
 
  Cash and cash equivalents:
 
     Cash and cash equivalents of the Company are composed of demand deposits
with banks and short-term cash investments with remaining maturities of three
months or less from the date of purchase by the Company.
 
  Inventories:
 
     Inventories of food, paper products and supplies are stated at the lower of
cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis.
 
  Property and equipment, depreciation and amortization:
 
     Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization
are provided by charges to operations over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, or the lease term if less, by the straight-line method. During the first
quarter of 1995, the Company changed its estimate of the useful lives of certain
fixed assets (Note 5). As a result of this change, income before income taxes
increased approximately $2.3 million, net income increased approximately $1.4
million and earnings per share increased approximately $.08 in 1995.
 
  Deferred charges and related amortization:
 
     Loan costs are deferred and amortized over the term of the respective
agreements. Franchise rights are amortized over the remaining life of the
franchise agreements. In the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company revised its
estimate of the future benefit for preopening expenses. As a result, the Company
expensed all unamortized preopening expenses of approximately $900,000. The
Company now expenses all preopening expenses as incurred. Previously, preopening
expenses were amortized over a two year period. Other deferred charges are
amortized over various periods of up to five years. All amortization is provided
by the straight-line method.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
  Franchise fees and royalties:
 
     The Company recognizes initial franchise fees upon fulfillment of all
significant obligations to the franchisee. Royalties from franchisees are
accrued as earned.
 
  Impairment of intangibles and long-lived assets:
 
     Impairment losses are recognized if the future cash flows expected to be
generated by intangibles and long-lived assets are less than the carrying value
of the assets. The impairment loss is equal to the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
 
  Reclassifications:
 
     In 1995, the Company adopted the single step format for presenting its
Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Certain reclassifications of 1993 and 1994
amounts have been made to conform to the 1995 presentation.
 
  Use of estimates and assumptions:
 
     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 period. Significant estimates are used in determining the realization
of the deferred tax asset, the liability for self-insured reserves and the
collectibility of receivables. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
  Accounting for stock-based compensation:
 
     The Company has elected to not apply the accounting provisions of the
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
 
  Stock Split:
 
     All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a
three-for-two stock split in the form of a 50% stock dividend of the Company's
Common Stock effected on May 22, 1996.
 
2. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS:
 
     Effective May 5, 1994, the Company sold its Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe
restaurants for an aggregate purchase price consisting of approximately $6.7
million in cash, $4.7 million in subordinated promissory notes and the retention
of a 12 1/2% equity interest in the acquiring company. Due to the Company's
substantial equity interest, the acquiring company is a related party subsequent
to the transaction. Revenues from the Company's Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe
restaurants were $6.5 million in 1994. Income before income taxes was $6.3
million in 1994 including a gain of $5.5 million from the sale.
 
     The Company provided for a loss of approximately $2.3 million in 1994 as a
result of the Company's decision to close one Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant and
the impairment in fair value of the fixed assets of ten Chuck E. Cheese's
restaurants. The impairment in fair value of the ten restaurants is due to the
Company's decision not to renew the leases as a result of the deterioration of
site characteristics or the inability to renew the leases at acceptable rental
terms.

4. NOTES RECEIVABLE:
 
     The Company's notes receivable at December 30, 1994 and December 29, 1995
arose principally as a result of the sale of restaurants, lines of credit
established with the International Association of ShowBiz Pizza Time
Restaurants, Inc., a related party (Note 19), and advances to franchisees, joint
ventures and managed properties. All obligors under the notes receivable are
principally engaged in the restaurant industry. The notes have various terms,
but most are payable in monthly installments of principal and interest through
2000, with interest rates ranging from 7.5% to 12.0%. The notes are generally
collateralized by the related property and equipment. Balances of notes
receivable are net of an allowance for doubtful collection of $139,000 and
$354,000 at December 30, 1994 and December 29, 1995, respectively.
 
5. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

the event of default by the maker or assignee, the Company, in almost all cases,
may make payment under the guarantees in accordance with the original payment
schedule and has the right to locate potential buyers or subtenants for the
assets. As of December 29, 1995, such guarantees aggregated approximately
$586,000.

will be no material effects on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or cash flows as a result of such litigation.

by the Company, the preferred shareholders shall be able to elect a majority of
the directors of the Company.

</TABLE>
 
     At December 29, 1995, the Company has recorded a deferred tax asset of
approximately $33.0 million reflecting the $24.7 million tax effect of $67.0
million in net operating loss carryforwards, $7.3 million in tax credit
carryforwards and tax effected net taxable deductions of $796,000. Realization
of the deferred tax asset is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income
prior to expiration of these carryforwards. Tax credit carryforwards can be
utilized only after all net operating loss carryforwards have been realized. In
1994, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $1.1 million for tax credit
carryforwards which are estimated to expire in 1997. Although realization is not
assured, the Company believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax
asset will be realized. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
realizable could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable
income are reduced.
 
     As of December 29, 1995, the Company has investment tax credit and jobs tax
credit carryforwards totaling $5,258,000 and $548,000, respectively, and
alternative minimum tax credits of $1,513,000.
 
     In August 1993, new federal tax legislation was enacted that increased the
Company's federal tax rate to 35% effective December 31, 1993. As a result, the
Company's deferred tax asset and net income were increased by approximately
$971,000 and deferred tax expense decreased by the same amount.

17. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
 
     The Company has certain financial instruments consisting primarily of cash,
cash equivalents, notes receivable, notes payable and redeemable preferred
stock. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value
because of the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of the
Company's notes receivable, notes payable and redeemable preferred stock
approximates fair value based on the interest rates charged on instruments with
similar terms and risks. The estimated fair value of the Company's redeemable
preferred stock is $3.0 million.

19. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
 
     The Hallwood Group, Incorporated ("Hallwood") is the beneficial owner of
approximately 14.6% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The
directors of Hallwood serve as a majority of the directors of the Company and
Integra -- A Hotel and Restaurant Company ("Integra").
 
     In December 1993, the Company fully repaid approximately $1.7 million in a
term loan payable to a third party assigned by Integra. The Company made annual
payments to Hallwood of $125,000 for consulting services in 1993, 1994, and
1995. In consideration for rent reductions resulting from Hallwood's negotiation
of the Company's home office lease agreement in December 1990, the Company
assigned to Hallwood its sublease interest in the home office building subleased
to Integra with a fair value of approximately $120,000 per year. Integra vacated
this space in 1995.
 
     The Company paid $99,000 in interest to Integra for 1993.
 
     In 1993, Hallwood and its affiliate exercised warrants to purchase 835,873
shares of common stock. The exercise price of the warrants was $1.19 per share.
 
     During 1993, the Company advanced $30,000 to joint ventures in which the
Company has a 50% interest or less. Principal and interest are payable in
monthly installments, with interest at various rates from prime to 12%. The
Company also has miscellaneous accounts receivable from joint ventures of
approximately $393,000 and $410,000 at December 30, 1994 and December 29, 1995,
respectively.
 
     In September 1990, the Company entered into an agreement to grant the
International Association of ShowBiz Pizza Time Restaurants, Inc. (the
"Association") a $2.0 million line of credit, at prime. In December 1993, the
Company granted the Association a $1.0 million line of credit, at prime, for
advertising production. In November 1994, available borrowings under the lines
of credit were reduced to a total of $2.4 million at an annual interest rate of
prime plus  1/2%. In December 1995, the lines were renegotiated to provide the
Association with available borrowings of $3,750,000 at 10.5% which expire
December 31, 1996. The Association was established to develop and improve
entertainment attractions and produce system wide advertising. Two officers of
the Association are also officers of the Company. At December 29, 1995,
approximately $1,869,000 was outstanding under these lines of credit. The
Company also had a miscellaneous account receivable from the Association of
$22,000 and $5,000 at December 30, 1994 and December 29, 1995, respectively.

Chief Executive Officer, the Company recognized deferred compensation of $12.0
million in 1993. In 1995, the Company's Chairman of the Board and Chief
Executive Officer forfeited 90,000 shares of unvested common stock of the
Company previously awarded to him under the Company's stock grant plan. As a
result of this forfeiture, deferred compensation and capital in excess of par
value were reduced by approximately $1.7 million. The deferred compensation is
amortized over the compensated periods of service through 1997.
 
     The Company has adopted the ShowBiz 401(k) Retirement and Savings Plan, to
which it may at its discretion make an annual contribution out of its current or
accumulated earnings. Contributions by the Company may be made in the form of
its common stock or in cash. In 1993, the Company made a contribution of
approximately $36,000 in common stock for the 1992 plan year. No contributions
were made for the 1993 and 1994 plan years. The Company plans to contribute
$23,000 in common stock for the 1995 plan year.

     In the second quarter of 1994, the Company recognized a gain of $5.5
million from the sale of its Monterey's Tex-Mex Cafe restaurants. This was
partially offset by a $2.0 million loss associated with the impairment in fair
value of certain Chuck E. Cheese's restaurants.
 
     The fourth quarter of 1994 includes a $1.1 million increase in income tax
expense due to a reduction in deferred tax credit carryforwards which are
estimated to expire in 1997, a write-off of approximately $900,000 for
pre-opening expenses due to a change in the estimated future benefit of such
expenses and a reserve of approximately $400,000 for the impairment in fair
value of certain Chuck E. Cheese's restaurants.
