                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A - Organization and Basis of Preparation

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared 
from 
the unaudited records of SVI Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries. In the opinion 
of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial 
position, results of operations and cash flows at March 31, 1997 and for all 
the periods presented have been made.

    Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in 
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted 
accounting 
principles have been condensed or omitted. Accounting policies followed by 
the 
Company are described in the notes to the financial statements in its Annual 
Report on form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 1996. The financial 
information included in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction 
with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto in the 
Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996.

    The results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full 
year.

    On December 8, 1995, the Company sold the net assets and related 
operations of Tango Products USA, Inc., a wholly owned and fully consolidated 
subsidiary. Operating results of Tango Products USA, Inc. for the periods 
ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 are shown separately in the 
accompanying statement of operations. Except as otherwise noted, all other 
adjustments are of a continuing and recurring nature.

     In February 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with the 
management of Softline Business Systems (Proprietary) Limited ("Softline") to 
acquire 100% of Softline for R 7,500,000.00 (US$ 1,927,500 at March 1, 1996). 
Management of Softline, which held 15% of the equity in Softline, 
simultaneously entered into an agreement to purchase 85% of the outstanding 
issued share capital in Softline from Persetel Holdings Limited ("Persetel"). 
On February 12, 1996, Claudav Holdings B.V., the majority stockholder of SVI 
Holdings, Inc. entered into an agreement with Credit Bancorp Limited to 
provide financing for the acquisition of Softline. Despite repeated 
assurances 
from Credit Bancorp and affiliated parties, such funding failed to 
materialize. In March 1996, funding for the payment of the outstanding 
purchase price was provided by a consortium of investors (the "Consortium"). 
It was agreed between SVI and the consortium that a new company, Softline 
Holdings (Proprietary) Limited ("Softline Holdings") would be formed which 
would hold 100% of Softline. SVI would hold 50% of the issued share capital 
of 
Softline Holdings with the balance of 50% being held by the Consortium and 
Softline management. As payment for its 50% interest in Softline Holdings, 
SVI  agreed to provide R 14,250,000 (US$ 3,355,875 at March 31, 1996).

     Although no fixed date was set for the payment of the amount outstanding 
for the interest of SVI in Softline, it was agreed that such payment would be 
made prior to the listing of Softline on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (the 
"JSE"). In order to finance the acquisition, SVI entered into various 
contracts to secure funding through private placements and secured loans, but 
despite the binding nature of such agreements, none of the funding parties 
complied with their contractual commitments to provide such funding.

     In August 1996, Softline entered into negotiations for the listing of 
Softline on the JSE via the acquisition of Benoni Gold Mining Limited 
("Benoni"), a "cash shell" listed on the JSE. In view of the impending 
listing 
of Softline and the fact that the contracted sources for the provisions of 
funding of the acquisition of Softline had failed to materialize, the Company 
entered into negotiations with Softline management and the Consortium. As a 
result of these negotiations, it was agreed that the Company would provide an 
amount of R 9,627,200 (US$ 2,097,767 at September 30, 1996) and the interest 
of SVI in Softline would be adjusted to 40.25% of the outstanding common 
shares.

     Funding for the amount paid to Softline of R 9,627,200 (US$ 2,097,767 at 
September 30, 1996) was raised by the private placement of the Company's 
securities and a loan from Sudash (Pty) Ltd ("Sudash") of R 8,280,000 (US$ 
1,804,212 at September 30, 1996).

     On February 19, 1997, the acquisition of Benoni was completed and 
Softline was listed in the Industrial - Electronics sector of the JSE  as 
Softline Limited. In terms of the agreement with the existing shareholders of 
Benoni and the exercise of options in Softline, the Company's holding in 
Softline was diluted to 29% of the outstanding issued share capital of 
Softline Limited amounting to 48,639,000 shares of common stock.

     In April 1997, 26,757,131 shares in Softline Limited were sold realizing 
US$6,724,934 in proceeds. The proceeds on the sale of shares were utilized 
for 
the repayment of the Sudash loan, payment for the outstanding balance on the 
note due on the acquisition of Divergent and the acquisition of Chapman 
Computers (Pty) Ltd. Subsequent to the sale of these Softline shares, the 
Company held under 20% of the outstanding equity in Softline and effective 
the 
quarter ended June 30, 1997, Softline will no longer be accounted for under 
the equity method.

     Mr. Barry Schechter is a member of the Board of Directors of Softline 
serving as a representative of the Company.

     On November 5, 1996, the Company entered into agreements for the 
acquisition of Divergent Technologies Pty, Ltd.("Divergent"), an Australian 
information technology company. The Company acquired 100% of the outstanding 
issued share capital of Divergent comprising 1,500,000 Ordinary shares and 
52,500 "E" Class Redeemable Preference shares and the exclusive worldwide 
technology rights (the "Technology Rights") for the "dOLPHIN" and "dPOSit" 
software products.

     The purchase price for Divergent was A$ 5,177,720 (United States 
$4,076,945 at November 5, 1996) and the option to purchase 1,600,000 shares 
of 
the Company's common stock at a price of $1.75 for two years. The Technology 
Rights were acquired in exchange for 1,300,000 shares of the common stock of 
the Company. The Company financed the acquisition of Divergent by the sale of 
a portion of its investment in Softline.

     On March 12, 1997, the "E" Class Redeemable Preference shares were 
redeemed for cash and the exchange of 52,383 shares of the Company's common 
stock.

    The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated 
results of operations as if the acquisition of Divergent Technologies (Pty) 
Ltd had occurred on October 1, 1995. These pro forma results have been 
prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of 
what would have occurred had the acquisition been made as of those dates or

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Results of operations

    For a discussion of certain risks regarding the Company, see the Risk 
Factors section of the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 
1996.

    For the six months ended March 31, 1997, revenues from continuing 
operations increased by $ 3,572,356 in comparison with the same period in the 
previous year. This increase is attributable to the acquisition of Divergent 
Technologies (Pty) Ltd.

    Cost of sales increased relative to sales for the six months ended March 
31, 1997, in comparison with the same period of the previous year. This 
increase is attributable to the acquisition of Divergent and reflects the 
higher cost of sales inherent in the provision of high-end computer systems 
which includes the sale of hardware and components, in comparison with the 
sale of training materials.

    Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased to $ 2,379,044 for 
the six months ended March 31, 1997 in comparison with $ 530,688 in the six 
months ended March 31, 1996. This increase is attributable to the inclusion 
of 
Divergent in the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended 
March 
31, 1997. Additional factors contributing to this increase were costs 
incurred 
in completing the acquisition of Divergent.
     The Company's portion of equity in the earnings of Softline amounted to 
$212,420 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. This comprised 40.25% of the 
earnings of Softline for the period to February 19, 1996 and 28% of the 
earnings of Softline for the period from Februaury 20, 1997 to March 31, 
1997. 
The Company's interest in Softline was diluted to 29% on the listing of 
Softline on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in February 1997. The interest 
was 
further diluted to 28% on the sale of 2,000,000 shares of Softline Stock 
realizing proceeds of $300,000 which resulted in a gain of $152,253.

    Foreign income taxes of $129,270 were paid by Divergent in the quarter 
ended March 31, 1997. Net operating loss carry forwards available to SVI 
Holdings are not available to offset the tax liabilities of the foreign 
subsidiary.

    An unrealized foreign exchange loss of $58,726 arose for the quarter 
ended 
March 31, 1997. This is the result of fluctuations in the rate of exchange 
for 
loans for the acquisitions of Softline and Divergent being denominated in 
foreign currency. It is also expected that foreign exchange gains or losses 
will arise in future as the result of transactions occurring between SVI, 
Softline and Divergent in the normal course of business.

    Income from continuing operations of $301,700 was earned for the quarter 
ended March 31, 1997, compared with income from continuing operations of 
$70,229 for the comparative period of the prior year. The increase in profit 
is due to the contributions of Divergent and Softline.

    At the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company had a deferred tax 
asset of approximately $2,100,000 resulting from net operating loss carry 
forwards, which has been offset in its entirety by a valuation allowance. 
These carry forwards may be used to offset future taxable income, expiring 
from the year 2005 to 2010.

Financial Condition

    At March 31, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of 
$1,354,565. This is an increase in working capital from the deficit of 
$1,844,228 at September 30, 1996. The working capital deficit includes the 
loan from Sudash of $1,872,897. This loan, together with the note payable on 
the acquisition of Divergent of $3,268,242 was repaid in April 1997 from the 
proceeds of the sale of a portion of the interest in Softline. Management 
believes that current cash resources should be adequate to provide for the 
Company's immediate requirements.

    The operations of the Company have primarily been financed by private 
placements of the Company's securities and advances from stockholders. There 
is no assurance that these sources of funds will be available in future. In 
additional to private placements and advances from stockholders, the Company 
intends to utilize the liquidity of its investment in Softline arising from 
the listing of Softline on the JSE as an additional source of funds.

PART II. - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings.
     
    On November 26, 1996, the Company obtained a preliminary injunction in 
the 
United States District Court (Southern District of California) (the "District 
Court") against certain defendants, including Park Park Financial Group, Inc. 
("Park Financial"), Edwin Wood, Bank Martinique, Brink, Hudson & LaFever, 
Ltd., Walmur & Co., Pacific International Securities, Inc., Union Securities, 
Ltd.,  Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., BLB Financial, Inc., Brian Walsh, 
Brian 
Johanson, Luke di Angelo, Gary Robinson, Bear Stearns & Co., Inc., and 
Philadelphia Depository Trust Company, in order to prevent the transfer of 
any 
of the two million shares of the Company's common stock that had been 
delivered to Park Financial  in contemplation of a loan to be secured by a 
pledge of stock. The loan was not funded and the stock should have been 
returned to the majority stockholder of the Company.

    The Company has alleged that, the Company's majority stockholder, in the 
course of seeking a loan from a prospective lender, transferred a significant 
number of the Company's shares held by that majority stockholder to Park 
Financial. The shares were to be held in trust by Park Financial until the 
loan was funded and then held by Park Financial as a pledge holder. The 
Company alleges that Park Financial failed to hold the shares in trust and 
instead sold or otherwise transferred the shares to third parties who began 
to 
trade the restricted shares in violation of Park Financial's representations 
and obligations to the Company and its majority stockholder.  Based on the 
above allegations, the Company has filed a lawsuit in the District Court 
against certain of the above defendants for breach of contract, common law 
fraud, and conversion, as well as for violations of federal securities and 
RICO statutes.





Item 2.  Changes in Securities

    On November 5, 1996, the Company issued an option to purchase 1,600,000 
shares of its common stock at $1.75 per share for two years to the 
stockholders of Divergent Technologies Pty., Ltd. ("Divergent") in a 
transaction to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Divergent.  The 
Company also issued 1,300,000 shares of its common stock at $2.50 a shares in 
order to acquire certain technology rights owned by Divergent.  As part of 
the 
Divergent transaction,  employees of Divergent were issued 52,484 shares of 
the Company's common stock.  The stock issuances were exempt from 
registration 
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, and Rule 506 or 505 of 
Regulation D promulgated thereunder, or Regulation S promulgated thereunder, 
due to the limited number of purchasers and the fact that all of the 
purchasers are residents of Australia.

     On December 10, 1996, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock 
to an accredited investor at $2.00 per share. The stock issuance was exempt 
from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, and Rule 
506 or 505 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, due to the limited number 
of accredited purchasers.
