Performing Assets, Inc., an Indiana corporation ("Diversified Performing" and,
collectively with Diversified Financial, "Diversified"), from Randall R. Geist

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To the Shareholders
Diversified Financial Systems, Inc.
Fort Wayne, Indiana


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Diversified Financial
Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of
income and retained earnings and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1994. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Diversified Financial Systems,
Inc. as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1995 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1995 IS UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

The Corporation is engaged in the business of providing collection services for
companies who have acquired loan portfolios from the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC), Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) and other sources. The
Corporation also acquires loan portfolios for its own account, from these same
sources, at substantial discounts from principal amounts outstanding and
liquidates the portfolios through collection efforts or through bulk sales to
financial institutions.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Income Recognition: The Corporation receives a fee, based upon a specified
- ------------------
percentage of collections, from the loan portfolios serviced.

Income from acquired loan portfolios is recognized as collections are received.
Portfolio cost is amortized over periods ranging from three to five years based
upon the ratio of the portfolio's original cost over the undiscounted estimated
total cash collections times the amount of cash received during the period.
Amortization of portfolio costs is accelerated if estimated cash collections are
subsequently revised downward. The cost recovery method is used for income tax
purposes.

Investment in Partnerships: The Corporation's investment in partnerships is
- --------------------------
carried at cost, plus its share of the partnerships' earnings. In the case of
Diversified Financial Systems, L.P., the partners were first allocated an
interest factor through October 15, 1993.

Furniture and Equipment: Furniture and equipment are stated at cost less
- -----------------------
accumulated depreciation of $137,468 at December 31, 1993, $197,413 at December
31, 1994 and $237,099 at June 30, 1995. Depreciation is computed on accelerated
methods over the estimated service lives of the related assets.

Real Estate Held for Sale: Real estate held for sale is carried at the lower of
- -------------------------
cost or fair value less estimated selling expenses. Valuation allowances are
recognized when fair value less estimated selling expenses is less than the cost
of the asset, by charges to earnings.

Deferred Financing Costs: Deferred financing costs represent origination and
- ------------------------
legal fees associated with obtaining the Corporation's loans and are being
amortized over the respective periods the loans are outstanding on a level yield
basis.

Income Taxes: Effective August 24, 1989, the Corporation's shareholders elected
- ------------
S corporation status under Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code and a
similar section of state income tax law. The statutes provide that, in lieu of
corporate income taxes, the shareholders are taxed on their proportionate shares
of the Corporation's taxable income or loss.

Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Interim Financial Information: Financial
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
information for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 has been derived
from the Corporation's unaudited financial statements and, in the opinion of
management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a
fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications were made to the 1993 financial
- -----------------
statements to be comparable with the 1994 presentation.

NOTE 3 - FIRST LAKE CORP. AGREEMENT

The Corporation has a loan purchase, servicing and consulting agreement with
First Lake Corp. (FLC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of National Bancorp, Inc. The
Corporation services all loans purchased by FLC pursuant to the agreement, in
exchange for a fee equal to a negotiated percentage of amounts collected from
the loan portfolios and which generally has been within a range of 10% to 15%.
The agreement also provides for additional amounts payable to Diversified when
third party financing has been paid, on a portfolio-by-portfolio basis. These
additional amounts have ranged between 50% and 70% of amounts collected by FLC,
less all FLC direct and indirect expenses. The Corporation recorded $31,631 in
1992, $887,203 in 1993 and $1,165,236 in 1994 as additional income under this
agreement. (See Note 14)

Effective February 28, 1994, the Corporation and Diversified Performing Assets,
Inc. (see Note 11) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Transamerica
Business Credit Corporation to refinance all existing debt due Foothill Capital,
Hilco and a portion of the debt due American National Bank and Trust Company of
Chicago. The agreement provides for a $25,000,000 master credit facility to
facilitate the refinancing and/or purchase of new loan portfolios. Part of the
master credit facility is a $6,000,000 term loan to refinance a portfolio of
nonperforming loans. Interest under the master credit facility is prime plus 2%.
Principal reductions and interest are serviced through cash receipts from the
respective loan portfolios. The term loan is due August 31, 1995 with interest
payable at prime plus 3% and payable in monthly installments of $333,333
beginning April 1, 1994. The agreement provides for accelerated payments under
certain circumstances and contains various financial covenants relating to
tangible net worth, minimum acceptable debt to net worth and interest coverage
ratios. The early retirement of the Hilco note resulted in a gain of $333,965.

The Corporation has a $40,000,000 loan and security agreement with American
National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago. All borrowings are on demand notes
due on or before September 30, 1995, and collateralized by all of the acquired
loan portfolios and the underlying collateral. Interest is payable at 2% over
the prime rate. The loan is reduced by applying 87.5% of all payments received
from the acquired portfolios to principal and interest. Additionally, the
Corporation has provided the Bank with irrevocable letters of credit totaling
$2,000,000.

The Corporation was a 75% general partner in Diversified Financial Partners III
L.P. (DFP III). On January 25, 1994, the Corporation and its limited partner in
DFP III entered into a termination agreement. As part of the agreement, the
Corporation purchased the limited partner's interest for $1,270,000 in cash and
repaid all outstanding loans. This transaction effectively terminated the
Partnership. The Corporation, as the 75% general partner, received all of the
assets of DFP III in liquidation of the partnership, including the NCNB4 and
NCNB6 loan portfolios which were subsequently distributed to John McArdle (see
Note 13). The carrying value of loan portfolios received by the Corporation in
liquidation approximated $6,300,000.


NOTE 13 - STOCK REPURCHASE AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT

On November 25, 1992, the Corporation and John L. McArdle (a former 25%
shareholder) entered into a stock repurchase and consulting agreement effective
January 1, 1993. The consulting agreement obligated McArdle through December 31,
1993, to provide advice and counsel from time to time, as requested, on the
valuation of prospective loan portfolios and strategies and methods for
collecting and servicing existing loan portfolios owned by the Corporation. In
addition, McArdle was to manage and service the NCNB4 and NCNB6 loan portfolios
owned by Diversified Financial Partners III LP and serviced by the Corporation.
McArdle's 1993 compensation for consulting services consisted of various
operating expense reimbursements approximating $254,000 and consulting fees of
$860,000.

The stock purchase agreement provided for the Corporation to acquire all of
McArdle's stock in 1993 for cash in the amount of $380,000. In addition, on
January 26, 1994, the Corporation sold to McArdle its interest in the NCNB4 and
NCNB6 loan portfolios for $385,000, which were acquired as a result of
terminating Diversified Financial Partners III LP (see Note 12). The fair value
of those two loan portfolios was approximately

                                       19

<PAGE>


$2,400,000, as of the date of sale, and this additional consideration was
accounted for as treasury stock cost in 1994. The difference between the fair
value of the loans sold and their carrying cost, plus the cash received for the
loan sale and forgiveness of previous debt owed McArdle resulted in a gain of
$436,521.


NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 9, 1995, the Shareholders entered into a stock purchase agreement with
DFC Asset Corp. (DFC). The Shareholders agreed to sell all of their shares to
DFC for $6,360,000 in cash, promissory notes totaling $3,850,000, and certain
contingent consideration based on the excess cash flow of the various pools.

On September 15, 1995, the Corporation agreed to purchase the loan portfolios
serviced for First Lake Corp. for $565,000 in cash and the assumption of debt in
an amount approximating $10,000,000. Additionally, a fee was paid in the amount
of $1,100,000 to secure the consent of First Lake Corp. to the stock sale and
the assignment of servicing rights. Both entities simultaneously cancelled the
portion of the loan purchase, servicing and consulting agreement relating to
additional fees (see Note 2). If the assumed debt is not completely liquidated
by April 30, 1996, FLC will retain its ownership rights in the loan portfolios
and the related debt.

          (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1995 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1995 IS UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

Diversified Performing Assets, Inc. was incorporated on November 29, 1993 and
began its operating activities on February 28, 1994. The Corporation acquires,
through related party intermediaries, performing loans that were originally held
by the FDIC or RTC as the result of foreclosure proceedings on Banks and Savings
and Loan Associations.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Interim Financial Information: Financial
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
information for the four months ended June 30, 1994 and the six months ended
June 30, 1995 has been derived from the Corporation's unaudited financial
statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a
normal occurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of financial position
and results of operations.

Loans: Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned
- -----
discount. Interest income and unearned discount are reported on the accrual
basis over the term of the loan based on the amount of principal outstanding.

The Corporation does not provide for loan losses because all loans, with
principal payments 60 days past due, are replaced by the seller.

Income Taxes: The Corporation's shareholders elected S corporation status under
- ------------
Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code and a similar section of state income
tax law. These statutes provide that, in lieu of corporate income taxes, the
shareholders are taxed on their proportionate shares of the Corporation's
taxable income or loss.


NOTE 3 - REVOLVING NOTE PAYABLE

The Corporation has entered into a $25,000,000 revolving loan and security
agreement with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation. Borrowings under the
agreement are collateralized by all of the Corporation's assets, including the
collateral securing the loans. Interest is payable monthly, generally at prime
plus 2%. The agreement contains various financial covenants relating to
limitations on the payment of dividends, tangible net worth, and minimum
acceptable debt to net worth and interest coverage ratios. As part of the
agreement, the Company's bank accounts are restricted.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The loans receivable were acquired from affiliated companies owned by Randall R.
Geist and J. Michael Hester. A servicing fee of 2% is paid to Diversified
Financial Systems, Inc., owned by Geist and Hester, for portfolio collection
fees and administrative expenses.

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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Diversified Financial Systems,
L.P. at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                       DIVERSIFIED FINANCIAL SYSTEMS, L.P.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          (INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 1995 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
                      JUNE 30, 1994 AND 1995 IS UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

Diversified Financial Systems, L.P. (the Partnership) is an Indiana limited
partnership engaged in the business of acquiring loan portfolios from the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), Resolution Trust Corp. (RTC) and
other sources, at substantial discounts from principal amounts outstanding, and
liquidating the portfolios through collection efforts or through bulk sales to
financial institutions. The portfolios owned at December 31, 1994, consist of
loan concentrations in Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas, Massachusetts and Illinois.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation of Unaudited Interim Financial Information: Financial
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
information for the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1995 has been derived
from the Partnership's unaudited financial statements and, in the opinion of
management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a
fair presentation of financial position, results of operation and cash flows.

Income Recognition: For financial statement purposes income is recognized as
- ------------------
collections are received. Portfolio cost is amortized over periods ranging from
three to five years, based upon the ratio of the portfolio's original cost over
the undiscounted initial estimated total cash collections times the amount of
cash received during the period. Amortization of portfolio cost is accelerated
if estimated cash collections are subsequently revised downward.

Income Taxes: The Partnership does not provide for income taxes in the financial
- ------------
statements. Instead, the Partnership's taxable income or loss will be included
in the individual income tax returns of the partners.

For income tax purposes, the Partnership uses the cost recovery method of
reporting taxable income.


NOTE 3 - UNAMORTIZED COST OF ACQUIRED LOAN PORTFOLIOS

The unamortized cost of acquired loan portfolios as of December 31, 1993 and
1994, and June 30, 1995, is as follows:

NOTE 4 - COLLATERALIZED BANK LOANS

On June 13, 1994, the Partnership entered into a $2,399,700 term loan and
security agreement with Transamerica Lender Finance (Transamerica). Proceeds of
the loan were used to refinance the remaining debt associated with loan
portfolios originally purchased with borrowings under a $20,000,000 line of
credit with American National Bank and Trust Company of Chicago (American
National Bank). All borrowings under the Transamerica agreement are
collateralized by the Partnership's assets, including but not limited to the
underlying collateral. The loan was due on March 1, 1995. Interest is payable
monthly at 3% over the prime rate.

Principal reductions and interest are serviced through cash receipts from the
Partnership's loan portfolio. The agreement provides for minimum principal
payments and interest equal to the greater of:

          1)   87.5% of the collections on loan portfolios with no remaining 
               debt; or

          2)   an amount equal to the outstanding principal as of the monthly 
               payment date divided by the remaining months to maturity.

Distributions to partners are limited to the lesser of:

          1)   Monthly collections on loan portfolios with no remaining debt; or

          2)   The difference between the total collections for the month less 
               the minimum required principal payment.

All loans associated with a loan portfolio must be paid off within 21 months of
the original purchase date.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Diversified Financial Systems, Inc. (DFSI), which is 60% owned by Randall R.
Geist, is the 75% general partner. The remaining 25% is divided among 8 limited
partners. DFSI manages and administers the acquired loan portfolios and receives
a percentage of loan collections as a fee for these services.

During 1994, the Partnership sold performing loans for cash in the amount of
$8,523,000 to Diversified Performing Assets, Inc. (DPAI), a corporation formed
by the shareholders of DFSI (Note 5). Bank loans were reduced by $3,894,000. The
remaining proceeds, net of $1,065,000 in servicing fees, was used for general
partnership purposes. As part of their agreement with DPAI, the Partnership is
required to replace any of the loans sold to DPAI that subsequently become
nonperforming. Nonperforming loans are defined as loans that have not made a
payment within 61 days.

NOTE 6 - PARTNERS' CAPITAL

Prior to October 15, 1993, the general partner and each of the limited partners
either provided American National Bank with an irrevocable letter of credit or
pledged a certificate of deposit to secure partnership borrowings. The total of
all such letters of credit and certificates of deposit was $3,300,000 at
December 31, 1992. As of October 15, 1993, the letter of credit or pledged
certificate of deposit requirement was released by American National Bank.

Prior to October 15, 1993, income, losses and net cash flow were allocated 75%
to the general partner and 25% to the limited partners, after first allocating
to each partner an amount equal to 12% per annum on each partner's letter of
credit or pledged certificate of deposit through the date of any cash flow
distribution. Subsequent to October 15, 1993, income, losses and cash flow are
allocated 75% to the general partner and 25% to the limited partners without an
interest allocation.

                FIRSTCITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
              PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


          The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements of FirstCity Financial Corporation present the pro forma statements
of FirstCity Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries from the July 3, 1995 Form
8-K/A together with pro forma adjustments to reflect the acquisition of
Diversified Financial Systems, Inc. and Diversified Performing Assets, Inc.
described elsewhere herein. These pro forma financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of J-Hawk Corporation
included in the July 3, 1995 Form 8-K/A and the consolidated financial
statements of FirstCity Financial Corporation in the September 30, 1995 Form
10-Q.

          On September 21, 1995, FirstCity acquired the capital stock of
Diversified Financial Systems, Inc. and Diversified Performing Assets, Inc.
(collectively, "Diversified") for $12.9 million in cash and notes. A portion
($2.7 million) of the notes is contingent upon the future performance of the
Diversified portfolios. Diversified also specializes in the acquisition and
disposition of distressed loans and loan-related assets. The acquisition,
accounted for as a purchase, increased FirstCity's assets by approximately $79
million, including $4.7 million attributable to servicing rights held by
Diversified and $4.3 million of goodwill. Diversified's assets secure $62
million of non-recourse debt reflected in the accompanying consolidated pro
forma balance sheet.

          The accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
of FirstCity reflect the estimated pro forma effects of the acquisition of
Diversified. The consolidated pro forma balance sheet assumes the transactions
were consummated on June 30, 1995, and the consolidated pro forma income
statements assume consummation on January 1, 1994.

          Subsequent to the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization and
Merger discussed in the July 3, 1995 Form 8-K/A, FirstCity will provide services
to the FirstCity Liquidating Trust under the terms of an Investment Management
Agreement. In that the Trust has no historical operations, no pro forma
adjustment was made to reflect servicing fee income and related expenses
attributed to the services to be provided by FirstCity to the Trust or interest
income on the "A" Certificate and related interest expense on the senior
subordinated debt. Consequently, these pro forma income statements are not
necessarily indicative of future results to be achieved and should not be relied
upon as an indicator of future performance of FirstCity.

             Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet
                                  June 30, 1995
                                   (unaudited)


A.          The condensed balance sheet as presented in the July 3, 1995 Form
            8-K/A reflects the merger of J-Hawk Corporation and First City
            Bancorporation of Texas, Inc. to form FirstCity Financial
            Corporation as if it occurred June 30, 1995.

B.          Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Diversified
            acquisition are reflected at estimated fair values. A reduction in
            cash reflects a portion of the purchase price paid. The cost of
            purchased loan pools is determined by discounting, at appropriate
            discount rates, the currently estimated cash flows projected to be
            realized from the collection, liquidation and disposition of these
            assets. Such assets consist principally of performing and
            non-performing loans, income producing real estate and interests in
            real estate, and miscellaneous other assets and receivables.
            Servicing rights from loan pools (included in other assets) are
            recorded at the net present value of estimated servicing fees, net
            of related costs, on certain loan pools. Notes payable to banks are
            secured by the purchased loan pools. Notes payable to others (former
            Diversified shareholders) include $2.7 million in contingent notes
            payable based on the future performance of Diversified's asset
            portfolios. Since the acquisition is accounted for as a purchase,
            the excess of the fair value of the consideration given over the
            fair value of the tangible net assets of Diversified acquired is
            recorded as goodwill (included in other assets).

                FIRSTCITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
           Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Income Statements
                         Six Months Ended June 30, 1995
                        and Year Ended December 31, 1994
                                   (unaudited)

A.   The consolidated income statements as presented in the July 3, 1995 Form
     8-K/A reflect the operating results of J-Hawk Corporation adjusted for the
     effects of the merger with First City Bancorporation of Texas, Inc. as if
     the merger occurred January 1, 1994. Income taxes subsequent to the merger
     are provided at a 34% rate. Net operating loss carry forwards are available
     to FirstCity and are recognized as an offset to the provision. The net tax
     expense reflected in the pro forma income statements represents the effect
     of the alternative minimum tax of 2% of taxable income.

B.   Column B is the historical operating results of Diversified.

C.   Intercompany servicing fees and certain non-recurring administrative
     expenses of Diversified are eliminated in Column C. An adjustment was also
     made to reflect the federal income taxes on the adjusted pro forma net
     taxable income.
