</TABLE>
Net revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 increased $1.2 million
or 6% compared with the same period in fiscal year 1999. The increase for the
quarter was due primarily to increases in net revenue from the television,
home video and theatrical markets of $1.3 million, $46,000 and $298,000
respectively, partially offset by decreases in international revenue of
$509,000. The increase in television revenue was primarily due to domestic
cable availability of "Meet Wally Sparks," "The Curve," "My Teacher's Wife,"
and "Cube" during the period as compared to only two films during the same
period in fiscal year 1999. The continued success of the home video release
of the NBC titles which include Saturday Night Live compilations in the sell
through market has enabled the Company to maintain its home video revenue
from the prior period without the large capital contributions required by
theatrical releases such as "Chairman of the Board" which was released in
video during the same period in fiscal 1999. The decrease in foreign
distribution revenue was primarily due to the release of one (1) film in the
foreign market for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 as compared to two
(2) films in the same period for fiscal year 1999.
The Company continues to focus its resources on producing and acquiring films
with specialized theatrical potential and the made for television market and
the home video sell through market. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources."

<PAGE>
ITEM 2: (Continued)
The Company anticipates that the domestic home video market will continue to
be extremely competitive.
GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the quarter
ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 was 25% and 21%, respectively.
SELLING EXPENSES: Selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 were 8% and 10%, respectively. For
the three months ended September 30, 1999 selling expenses decreased $195,000
or 10% compared with the same period in fiscal 1999. In November of 1998, the
Company made a concerted effort to decrease selling related expenses. The 10%
decrease in costs is a direct result of those efforts.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: For the three months ended September 30,
1999 general and administrative expenses increased $73,000 or 6% compared
with the same period in fiscal 1999. Approximately 65% of the increase is due
to the start up costs associated with Trimark's new subsidiary CinemaNow, Inc.
BAD DEBT EXPENSE: Bad debt expense for the three months ended September 30,
1999 increased $705,000 or 146% compared with the same period in fiscal 1999.
Bad debt expense primarily represents reserves taken against domestic video
and foreign sales. The increase was partially due to $355,000 in collections
during fiscal 1999 on past due video receipts which were previously reserved
for during the prior year. In addition, the reserve was increased due to a
number of international customers' accounts going into arbitration.
INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1999
decreased $196,000 or 18% compared with the same period in fiscal 1999. The
decrease in interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was
primarily due to a lower average borrowing level from the same period in
fiscal 1999. As of September 30, 1999, there was $44.3 million outstanding
under the credit facility. The Company expects to use excess cash flow
generated by theatrical and library product to decrease current debt levels.
See "Liquidity and Capital Resources."
INTEREST AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest and investment income for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 increased $2.2 million as
9
<PAGE>
ITEM 2: (Continued)
a result of the sale of 29,411 shares of Yahoo!, Inc. for a weighted average
selling price of $156 per share.
NET EARNINGS: The Company's net earnings for the three months ended September
30, 1999 increased $2.5 million or 354% compared with the same period in
fiscal 1999. The increase was due to the sale of the Yahoo!, Inc. shares
combined with the higher gross profit for the period compared to the same
period in fiscal 1999.
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME: The comprehensive (loss) income reported
during the period ending September 30, 1999 is a result of the realized and
unrealized gain in Yahoo!, Inc. shares resulting from the sale of the stock
during the quarter and change in per share price at September 30, 1999.

ITEM 2: (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company relies on cash generated by operations and borrowings under its
credit facility to finance its operations. The Company's cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998 were as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Three Months Ended
September 30,
------------------------------------------

--------------- ------------------
(in thousands)
<S> <C> <C>
Net cash provided (used) by operating activities $ 1,555 ($ 4,397)
Net cash provided (used) by investing activities 2,363 (55)
Net cash (used) provided by financing activities (4,000) 4,167
</TABLE>
Cash provided by operations increased by $6.0 million for the three month
period ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period in fiscal 1999
principally as the result of a $2.5 million increase in net profits coupled
with a $3.1 million decrease in film costs. The $9.9 million addition to film
costs was primarily used for the production and acquisition of new product
with approximately $1.0 million used for prints and advertising costs on the
specialized theatrical releases of "Twice Upon a Yesterday," "Better Than
Chocolate," "Romance" and "Joe the King."
Investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 1999 consisted
of the sale of Yahoo!, Inc. stock at a weighted average price $156 per share
with a base price of approximately $83 per share. Investing activities for
fiscal 1999 primarily consisted of expenditures on production equipment
improvements.
Financing activities, consisting primarily of borrowings under the Company's
credit facility, decreased $8 million in the three months ended September 30,
1999 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998. The decrease
was primarily the result in the increase in operating cash flows. The
Company's cash requirements vary in part with the size and timing of
production advances and minimum guarantee payments along with the timing of
its theatrical, home video, television and international releases. The
combination of steady sales growth in sell through video product along with
11
<PAGE>
ITEM 2: (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
lower investments in prints and advertising costs has led to the continued
reduction in the overall debt balance.
On December 20, 1996, the Company's principal operating subsidiaries, Trimark
Pictures, Inc. and Trimark Television, Inc., entered into a $75 million
revolving credit facility with a consortium of banks agented and arranged by
The Chase Manhattan Bank which replaced a $25 million revolving credit
facility with Bank of America NT & SA and Westdeustche Landesbank. The credit
facility expires December 19, 2000. Under the credit agreement, the Company
may borrow for various corporate purposes provided that the aggregate
borrowings do not exceed the Borrowing Base which is derived from specified
percentages of approved accounts receivable and film library. The credit
agreement is guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and is
secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its significant
subsidiaries. Loans outstanding under the credit facility bear interest at
the rate of 1.5% above Chase Manhattan's prime rate or 2.5% above Chase
Manhattan's London Interbank Market for Eurodollars for the loan term
specified. An unused commitment fee is payable on the average unused
availability under the credit facility, at the rate of 0.375% per annum. As
of September 30, 1999 there was $44.3 million outstanding under the credit
facility. The Company expects to use excess cash flow generated by theatrical
and library product to decrease current borrowing levels. The credit
agreement contains various financial and other covenants to which the Company
must adhere. These covenants, among other things, require the maintenance of
minimum net worth and various financial ratios which are reported to the bank
on a quarterly basis and include limitations on additional indebtedness,
liens, investments, disposition of assets, guarantees, affiliate transactions
and the use of proceeds. In relation to the release schedule described below,
the Company amended the current credit agreement as of December 31, 1998 and
September 27, 1999. The amended agreement provides for less stringent minimum
net worth ratios and minimum equity requirements. In consideration for the
adjustment of these ratios and minimum equity requirement, the amended credit
facility reduces the borrowing limits over the remaining life of the credit
facility. For the year ended June 30, 1999, the amended borrowing limit was
reduced to $60 million. By January 31, 2000, the borrowing limit is reduced
to $50 million and by June 30, 2000 is reduced to $40 million. The amendments
to the debt covenants and
12
<PAGE>
ITEM 2: (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
borrowing limits were structured to incorporate the Company's overall
strategy and presently planned productions, acquisitions, distribution and
overhead expenditures. The Company is in compliance with all debt covenants
as of September 30, 1999.
The Company's ability to maintain availability under its Credit Facility is
primarily dependent upon the timing of collections on existing sales during
the next twelve months and the amount and timing of collection on anticipated
sales of the Company's current library and films which the Company plans to
release or make available over the next twelve months. Management believes
the existing capital, cash flow from operations and availability under the
Company's amended Credit Facility will be sufficient to enable the Company to
fund its planned productions, acquisitions, distribution and overhead
expenditures for the next twelve months.
In the domestic specialized theatrical market the Company plans to release
six (6) to eight (8) motion pictures in fiscal 2000 (of which two were
released in the first three months of fiscal 2000). Furthermore, the Company
plans to release approximately thirty-five (35) motion pictures into the
domestic home video rental market (of which eight (8) were released in the
first three months of fiscal 2000) and to continue to expand distribution in
the sell through market. The Company intends to sell four (4) to six (6)
films and "movies of the week" which will premier on major cable networks or
broadcast stations. Also in fiscal 2000 the Company plans to release
approximately eight (8) to ten (10) motion pictures initially into
international distribution (of which one (1) was released in the first three
months of the fiscal year).
Technicolor Videocassette, Inc. currently serves as the Company's video
cassette duplicator and fulfillment contractor. Technicolor Videocassette,
Inc. has a general lien on all of the Company's materials and products in its
possession.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000. The Company is currently working to resolve the
potential impact of the year 2000 on the processing of time-sensitive
information by computerized information systems. Year 2000 issues may arise
if computer programs have been written using two digits (rather than four) to
define the applicable year. In such case, programs that have time-sensitive
logic may recognize a
13
<PAGE>
ITEM 2: (CONTINUED)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000, which could
result in miscalculations or system failures. Management completed a review
of significant software and equipment used in the Company's operations and,
to the extent practicable, in the operations of its key business partners, in
order to determine if any year 2000 risks exist that may be material to the
Company as a whole. The Company estimates that repairing all time sensitive
hardware and software will cost the Company approximately $250,000. As of
September 30, 1999 the Company has purchased approximately $220,000 in new
computer hardware and software through its normal upgrading of old computer
hardware and software as well as a direct result of year 2000 issues. The
Company also entered into a licensing agreement on February 6, 1999 for the
implementation of a new general ledger software system. The new G/L system
became fully operational on July 1, 1999. If customers or vendors are unable
to resolve the year 2000 processing issues in a timely manner, it could
result in a material financial risk.
