                     THE MONEY STORE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


     (1) BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Money
     Store Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), all of which are wholly-
     owned.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
     eliminated.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  It is suggested
     that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
     Company's December 31, 1995 audited consolidated financial statements and
     notes thereto.

     In the opinion of management all adjustments (which included only normal
     recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
     position and results of operations for these periods have been made.
     However, results for such interim periods are subject to year-end
     adjustments and are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.


     (2) NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Net income per share of common stock is computed using the weighted average
     number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period, after
     giving effect to common stock equivalents arising from the issuance of
     stock options.  All share and per share amounts have been restated to
     reflect the five-for-two stock split on December 1, 1995.

     (3) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company generally sells its home equity loans with servicing retained
     in mortgage pass-through transactions and in whole loan transactions.  In
     certain whole loan transactions, the Company is subject to off-balance
     sheet credit risk in the normal course of business due to commitments and
     obligations to service and repurchase loan receivables which are not
     included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  These
     commitments and obligations do not necessarily represent future cash flow
     obligations.  The obligations to repurchase home equity loans are subject
     to various terms and conditions including limitations on the amount of
     loans that may be required to be repurchased in any given year.  Based upon
     the terms of whole loan transactions and management's estimates of the
     lives of the underlying portfolios, management believes that there are
     $63,911,000 of home equity loans at September 30, 1996, which the Company
     may be required to repurchase in the future should such loans become more
     than 90 days past due.

     In an attempt to minimize the risk of interest rate fluctuations, one of
     the strategies employed by the Company is to enter into agreements that
     allow the Company to sell loans to certain trusts in the future at an
     agreed upon price. At September 30, 1996, under the terms of such
     agreements the Company had the right to sell $119,593,000 of home equity
     loans.

     (4) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On November 5, 1996, the Company completed an underwritten public offering
     of 4.6 million shares of $1.72 Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock at
     $26.50 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $117.9 million, which were
     used to pay down outstanding warehouse loans and other credit facilities.
     Each share of Preferred Stock will pay an annual dividend of $1.72 per
     share, will be convertible at the option of the holder into 0.833 shares of
     Common Stock and will automatically convert on December 1, 1999 into Common
     Stock.  The mandatory conversion rate, based on a formula, will range from
     0.8333 to 1.000 shares of Common Stock per share of Preferred Stock
     depending on the market price of the Common Stock for the 20 trading days
     preceding the mandatory conversion date.

     On November 11, 1996, the Underwriters informed the Company of their intent
     to exercise an over-allotment option they had been granted for an
     additional 615,000 shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock which
     should result in an additional $15.8 million in net proceeds to the
     Company. The proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option, which
     is expected to close on November 14, 1996, will be used to pay down
     additional outstanding warehouse loans and other credit facilities.

     ITEM 2

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     CERTAIN ACCOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS

     As a fundamental part of its business and financing strategy, the Company
     sells the majority of its loans with the servicing retained.  The majority
     of the Company's revenue is recognized as gain on sale of loans, which
     represents the present value of the difference between the interest rate
     charged by the Company to a borrower and the interest rate received by the
     investor who purchased the loan, in excess of normal loan servicing fees
     (the "Excess Servicing Spread") and non-refundable fees and premiums on
     loans sold.  The Company recognizes such gain on sale of loans in the year
     that such loans are sold, although cash (representing the Excess Servicing
     Spread and servicing fees) is received by the Company over the lives of the
     loans.  Concurrently with recognizing such gain on sale, the Company
     records a corresponding asset on its consolidated statement of financial
     condition in an initial amount equal to the Excess Servicing Spread (the
     "Excess Servicing Asset").  The Excess Servicing Asset is computed, in
     part, based upon, and amortized over, the estimated lives of the loans.
     The timing of sales of the Company's loans may impact the Company's
     earnings from quarter to quarter.

     The Excess Servicing Asset is calculated utilizing certain estimates made
     by management at the time loans are sold.  The rate of prepayment of loans
     may be affected by a variety of economic and other factors, including
     prevailing interest rates and the availability of  alternative financing to
     borrowers.  The effect of those factors on loan prepayment rates may vary
     depending on the type of loan.   Estimates of prepayment rates are made
     based on management's expectations of future prepayment rates, which are
     based, in part, on the historical rate of repayment of the Company's loans
     and other considerations.  There can be no assurance of the accuracy of
     management's prepayment estimates.  If actual prepayments with respect to
     sold loans occur more quickly than was projected at the time such loans
     were  sold, the carrying value of the Excess Servicing Asset may have to be
     written down through a charge to earnings in the period of adjustment.  If
     actual prepayments with respect to sold loans occur more slowly than
     estimated, the carrying value of the Excess Servicing Asset on the
     Company's consolidated statement of financial condition would not increase,
     although total income would exceed previously estimated amounts.

     The Company has several strategies which it employs in an attempt to
     minimize the risk of interest rate fluctuations during the period between
     the time it originates loans and the time such loans are sold;  i) the
     Company attempts to package and sell loans on a regular basis, thereby
     minimizing the period during which loans are held, ii) the Company usually
     does not fix the interest rate applicable to fixed rate home equity loans
     it originates until shortly prior to the closing of the loan, iii) the
     Company from time to time purchases options to sell government securities
     at agreed upon prices or sells securities not yet purchased, and iv) in
     certain securitizations the Company enters into an agreement that allows it
     to sell loans in the future at an agreed upon price.  The Company has basis
     risk on certain variable rate loans it sells where the customer and
     investor rates are based upon different indices and adjust at varying
     intervals.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     FINANCIAL CONDITION

     SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


     Receivables, net, increased $309.5 million to $1.3 billion at September 30,
     1996 from $1.0 billion at December 31, 1995.  This increase was primarily
     due to a net increase in loans held for sale of $182.2 million, accrued
     interest receivable of $21.5 million, other receivables of $101.5 million
     and allowance for credit losses of $4.3 million in 1996.  The increase in
     loans held for sale was due primarily to the fact that loans originated and
     purchased exceeded loan sales by $183.2 million, offset by reductions of
     $1.0 million.  Originations increased 54% for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1996, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995,
     primarily as a result of the Company providing greater variety of products,
     complemented by geographic expansion of the originations network and
     diversification in the methods of loan origination.

     The increase in accrued interest receivable is primarily due to the growth
     in the serviced loan portfolio. The increase in other receivables is
     principally attributable to advances, designed to protect investors from
     losses, made in connection with certain securitizations.  Also included in
     other receivables are repurchased loans.  The balance of the repurchased
     loan portfolio was $25.7 million at September  30, 1996 compared to $29.2
     million at December 31, 1995. In the past, when the Company sold home
     equity loans as whole loans, it generally committed to repurchase loans
     that became more than 90 days past due, up to a predetermined limit. The
     Company has increased its use of securitizations and has been able to
     negotiate whole loan sales without such a contingent repurchase obligation.

     The Excess Servicing Asset increased by $182.2 million to $706.6 million at
     September 30, 1996 from $524.4 million at December 31, 1995. This increase
     was due to Excess Servicing Spread on loans sold with servicing retained of
     $350.7 million offset by amortization of $168.5 million.

     Property, plant and equipment, net increased by $28.7 million to $62.5
     million at September 30, 1996 from $33.8 million at December 31, 1995.
     This increase was largely a result of the purchase of  land and related
     development costs to date in the amount of $15.2 million for the
     construction of the Company's new building in West Sacramento, California.
     The building is expected to be completed in late 1997, with an anticipated
     total cost of approximately $75.0 million.  In addition, the Company
     purchased $11.5 million in computer equipment to enhance the branch
     office's automation to support new product lines, provide system
     improvements and equipment supporting electronic document generation,
     storage and retrieval.  Furniture and office equipment and leasehold
     improvements increased $8.7 million primarily attributable to employment
     growth in the home equity loan division and the auto loan division.  These
     increases were offset by depreciation expense of $6.7 million.

     The primary source of funding the Company's receivables comes from
     borrowings issued under various credit arrangements. At September 30, 1996,
     the Company had notes payable of $1.4 billion, which compares with $1.1
     billion at December 31, 1995, an increase of $302.1 million. This increase
     is primarily a result of net increases of $52.1 million in secured credit
     facilities, in addition to borrowings of $333.0 million in connection with
     a three-year revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") offset by
     principal payments on unsecured notes of $83.0 million.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONT.)


     Accounts payable and other liabilities increased $31.0 million to $257.4
     million at September 30, 1996, from $226.4 million at December 31, 1995.
     The increase resulted primarily from an increase in funds collected on
     loans sold and serviced for others ("collections payable") of $41.3 million
     offset by a decrease in other miscellaneous accounts payable and accrued
     expenses.

     Income taxes, principally deferred, increased $23.0 million, from $94.9
     million at December 31, 1995 to $117.9 million at September 30, 1996.
     This increase resulted from the net income for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1996.

     The allowance for credit losses on loans sold increased $59.1 million from
     $125.2 million at December 31, 1995 to $184.3 million at September 30,
     1996, due to an increase in the amount of loans sold.

     Total shareholders' equity at September 30, 1996 was $418.4 million which
     compares with $241.1 million at December 31, 1995, an increase of $177.3
     million.  During March 1996, the Company completed a common stock offering,
     the net proceeds of which amounted to $122.1 million.  In addition, the
     Company had net income of $55.8 million, received proceeds from exercised
     stock options of $1.3 million and recorded $2.0 million in paid in capital
     representing the tax benefit from the exercise by employees of nonqualified
     stock options and disqualified incentive stock options.  Shareholders'
     equity decreased $3.9 million as a result of payment of cash dividends.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
     SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

     Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $55.8 million
     ($0.95 per share) on  58,629,987 weighted average number of shares
     outstanding compared to net income of $31.2 million ($0.61 per share) on
     50,934,678 weighted average number of shares outstanding for the nine
     months ended September  30, 1995, an increase of 79%.  The increase in net
     income is primarily attributable to income derived from gain on sale of
     receivables, as well as finance income and fees earned due to the growth in
     the Company's serviced loan portfolio.

     Gain on sale of receivables totaled $359.5 million for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1996, an increase of 48%, compared to $243.0 million
     for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.   Loans sold for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996 totaled $3.9 billion, compared to $2.4
     billion for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, offset by a decrease
     in the percentages of Excess Servicing Spread as follows:  (i) on home
     equity loans sold to 3.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
     from 3.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, (ii) on SBA loans
     sold including the sale of unguaranteed portions of SBA loans to 1.93% for
     the nine months ended September 30, 1996 from 2.16% for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1995, (iii) student loans sold to 1.41% for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996 from 1.72% for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1995, and (iv) on auto loans to 9.86% for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1996 from 10.33% for the nine months ended September
     30, 1995.

     Finance income, fees earned and other totaled $175.8 million for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of 65%, compared to $106.7
     million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The primary factor
     attributable to the growth in finance income and fees is the increase in
     the Company's serviced loan portfolio of 43% to $11.2 billion at September
     30, 1996 as compared to $7.8 billion at September  30, 1995.

     Salaries and employee benefits increased  36% to $117.0 million for the
     nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $86.0  million for the
     nine months ended September 30, 1995.  This increase was largely a result
     of additional staff needed for the growth in the home equity loan division
     and the auto loan division.

     Other operating expenses increased 67% to $138.5 million for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $82.9 million for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1995.  The increase was primarily attributable
     to occupancy costs and related office expenses associated  with the opening
     of additional branch offices totaling $15.3 million.  In addition,
     advertising expense increased $15.2 million, professional fees (including
     computer programming consulting fees) increased $7.0 million primarily to
     support  enhancing the branch offices' computer system and loan expenses
     increased $5.4 million as a result of the Company's growth in loan
     originations.

     The provision for credit losses increased $33.1 million to $94.9 million
     for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 from $61.8 million for the
     nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The provision increased to maintain
     the allowance for credit losses and the allowance for credit losses on
     loans sold at a level considered adequate to cover risk characteristics of
     the serviced loan portfolio and increased loan originations and sales.
     Home equity loans delinquent 90 days-and-over increased to 3.33% at
     September 30, 1996 from 2.09% at September 30, 1995.  SBA Loans delinquent
     90 days-and-over increased to 4.03% at September 30, 1996 from 3.71% at
     September 30, 1995.  Auto Loans delinquent 90 days-and-over increased to
     0.34% at September 30, 1996, from .02% at September 30, 1995, the initial
     year of operations for the division.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)

     Charge-offs, net of recoveries increased  80% to $32.4 million for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996 from $18.0 million for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1995, due to the increase in the Company's serviced
     loan portfolio.

     Interest expense increased 39% to  $91.4 million for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1996, from $66.0  million for the nine months ended September
     30, 1995.  The increase is attributable to the increase in the Company's
     average debt outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

     Income taxes increased  73% to $37.6 million for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1996 over the prior year due to an increase in pretax income.
     The effective tax rate decreased to 40% for the nine months ended September
     30, 1996, compared to 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, as
     a result of a decrease in state taxes.

     THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
     SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

     Net income for the third quarter 1996 was $22.7 million ($0.38 per share)
     on 59,090,793 weighted average shares outstanding compared to net income of
     $13.2 million ($0.26 per share) on 51,096,575 weighted average shares
     outstanding for the third quarter of 1995, an increase of 72%.  The
     increase in net income is primarily attributable to income derived from the
     gain on sale of receivables, as well as finance income and fees earned
     caused by the growth in the Company's serviced loan portfolio.

     Gain on sale of receivables totaled $143.7 million for the third quarter of
     1996, an increase of  39% compared to $103.7 million for the third quarter
     of 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable to an increase of 44% in
     loans sold from $975.9 million in the third quarter of 1995 to $1.4 billion
     in the third quarter of 1996.  Offsetting this increase is a decrease in
     the Excess Servicing Spread (i) on home equity loans sold to 3.73% for the
     third quarter of 1996 from 3.92% for the third quarter of 1995, (ii) on SBA
     loans sold  to 1.23% for the third quarter of 1996 from 1.68% (which
     includes the sale of unguaranteed portion of SBA loans) for the third
     quarter of 1995 and (iii) on auto loans sold to 10.05% for the third
     quarter of 1996 from 10.33% for the third quarter of 1995.  There were no
     sales of loans by the student loan division for the three months ended
     September 30, 1996, compared to Excess Servicing Spread of 1.72% for the
     third quarter of 1995.

     Finance income, fees earned and other totaled $58.5 million for the third
     quarter of 1996 an increase of 41% compared to $41.6 million for the third
     quarter of 1995.  The primary factor attributable to the growth in finance
     income and fees is the increase in the Company's serviced loan portfolio of
     43% to $11.2 billion at  September 30, 1996, compared to $7.8 billion at
     September 30, 1995.

     Salaries and employee benefits increased  33% to $42.9 million for the
     third quarter of 1996 from $32.3 million for the third quarter of 1995.
     This increase was largely the result of additional staff needs for growth
     in the home equity loan division, as well as new offices for the auto loan
     division.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)


     Other operating expenses increased 75% to $52.4 million for the third
     quarter of 1996, compared to $30.0 million for the third quarter of 1995.
     The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in occupancy costs
     and related office expenses totaling $3.4 million associated with the
     opening of additional branch and administrative offices, advertising
     expense of $7.9 million, professional fees of $2.6 million, primarily to
     support enhancing the branch offices' computer system, and loan expenses of
     $3.3 million as a result of the Company's growth in loan originations.

     The provision for credit losses increased by 6% to $35.9 million for the
     third quarter 1996 from $33.8 million for the third quarter of 1995.
     Charge-offs, net of recoveries, increased 79% to $12.9 million for the
     third quarter of 1996 compared to $7.2 million for the third quarter of
     1995, due to the increase in the Company's serviced loan portfolio.

     Interest expense increased 24% to $33.0 million for the third quarter of
     1996, from $26.6 million for the third quarter of 1995.  This increase
     resulted from increases in notes payable used in part to fund the increase
     in receivables.

     Income taxes increased 65% to $15.3 million for the third quarter of 1996,
     from $9.3 million for the third quarter of 1995, due to an increase in
     pretax income.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's business requires continual access to short- and long-term
     sources of debt financing and equity capital.  The Company's cash
     requirements arise from loan originations and purchases, advances and
     reserve account deposits in securitizations, loan repurchases, repayment of
     debt upon maturity, payment of operating and interest expenses and capital
     expenditures.  The Company's primary sources of liquidity are sales into
     secondary markets of the loans it originates, long-term borrowing (senior
     notes and subordinated debt), unsecured credit facilities, borrowing under
     term loans and credit facilities secured by pledges of its loans, in most
     cases until such loans are sold and the lenders can be repaid, and finance
     income and fees generated by the serviced loan portfolio.

     In order to continue to originate loans, the Company will need to maintain
     and renew its various credit facilities at least at current levels, or
     obtain new credit facilities to replace existing  facilities and its long
     term borrowing as they become due.

     Cash and cash equivalents were $240.6 million at September 30, 1996, an
     increase of $61.8 million from December 31, 1995.  At September 30, 1996,
     $143.4 million of cash and cash equivalents were restricted. These
     restrictions are reduced as loans are liquidated.  This increase resulted
     from cash provided by financing activities of $452.5 million primarily
     attributable to net proceeds from the issuance of  5.9 million shares of
     the Company's common stock, the net proceeds of which were $122.1 million,
     and the net increase in notes payables of $302.1 million offset by cash
     used in operating activities and investing activities of $355.3 million and
     $35.5 million, respectively.

     The Company from time to time sells certain of its receivables, primarily
     SBA loans and student loans, at a premium.  This strategy does not
     significantly effect reported earnings in the period of sales but allows
     the Company to generate a higher level of cash flow from current
     operations.  Such a strategy also reduces the average Excess Servicing
     Spread, thereby reducing cash flows received in the future.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONT.)


     The Company began development of its new West Coast headquarters office
     building located in West Sacramento, California in May 1996, with
     completion expected in late 1997. The project, which includes the purchase
     of land and building construction, is estimated to cost approximately $75.0
     million, and will be funded out of the general working capital of the
     Company.  The 400,000 square foot building will help to centralize
     operations and support additional staff from the anticipated growth of the
     business.

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had $2.4 billion of credit facilities
     for warehousing loans which are subject to periodic renewal and are used to
     finance loans after origination and prior to sale.  Of the amount available
     under these facilities $2.0 billion was unused at September 30, 1996.  At
     December 31, 1995, the Company had $1.6 billion of availability of credit
     facilities for warehousing loans, of which $1.2 billion was unused.  At
     September 30, 1996, the Company had $407.3 million of warehouse notes
     payable at a weighted average interest rate of  6.34%.

     On August 16, 1996, the Company entered into a $400 million unsecured
     Credit Facility.  At September 30, 1996, outstanding advances under the
     Credit Facility were $333.0 million with a weighted average interest rate
     of 6.80%.  In addition, at September 30, 1996, the Company had outstanding
     $637.2 million of unsecured debt and $13.0 million of subordinated debt
     which requires the Company to pay $13.0 million in the fourth quarter of
     1996, $112.0 million in 1997, $40.0 million in 1998, $190.0 million in
     1999, $110.0 million in 2000, $35.0 million in 2001 and $150.0 million in
     2002. The unsecured senior notes and subordinated debt bear interest at
     rates ranging from 7.63% to 12.00%, with a weighted average interest rate
     of  8.64% at  September 30, 1996.

     The Company is required to comply with various operating and financial
     covenants defined in the above agreements including covenants which may
     restrict the Company's ability to pay dividends.  At September 30, 1996,
     under the most restrictive of  these dividend covenants, the Company had
     available $145.5 million for the payment of dividends.
 
     On November 5, 1996, the Company completed an underwritten public offering
     for 4.6 million shares of $1.72 Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock.  The
     net proceeds of $117.9 million were used to pay down a portion of the
     outstanding warehouse loans and the Credit Facility.  On November 11, 1996,
     the Underwriters informed the Company of their intent to exercise an over-
     allotment option they had been granted for an additional 615,000 shares
     which should result in an additional $15.8 million in net proceeds to the
     Company.  These proceeds will also be used to pay down additional
     outstanding warehouse loans and the Credit Facility.

     While the Company believes that it will be able to refinance or otherwise
     repay its short term and unsecured debt in the normal course of its
     business, there can be no assurance that the Company's existing lenders
     will agree to refinance such debt, that other lenders will be willing to
     extend lines of credit to the Company or that funds otherwise generated
     from operations will be sufficient to satisfy such obligations.  Future
     financing may involve the issuance of additional common stock or other
     securities, including securities convertible into or exercisable for common
     stock.

     Item 2.  Changes in Securities

              (b)     The right of the holders of the Company's common stock to
                      receive dividends has been limited by the Amendment to the

                      Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Amendment'). Generally,
                      the Amendment prohibits the payment of dividends on the
                      Company's common stock unless, among other things, full
                      dividends on all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
                      have been paid or declared and set aside for payment.
