REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS




TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MONRO MUFFLER BRAKE, INC.
AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF SPEEDY MUFFLER KING INC.


We have audited the balance sheets of the SPEEDY DIVISION OF BLOOR AUTOMOTIVE,
INC. as at December 30, 1995, December 28, 1996 and January 3, 1998 and the
statements of operations and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Division'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 an audit to obtain
reasonable assurance 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.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Division as at December 30, 1995,
December 28, 1996 and January 3, 1998 and the results of its operations and
changes in cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

SPEEDY DIVISION OF BLOOR AUTOMOTIVE, INC.


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 30, 1995, DECEMBER 28, 1996 AND JANUARY 3, 1998
(IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS)



1          BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

           The financial statements of the Speedy Division of Bloor Automotive,
           Inc. ("Bloor") include the assets and liabilities and results of
           operations of the business operating as the Speedy Division of Bloor
           (the "Division"). Bloor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Speedy
           (U.S.A.) Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Speedy Muffler
           King Inc. ("Speedy"), a Canadian company. The Division operates
           automotive specialty stores under the Speedy brand name. These stores
           engage in the repair and replacement of automotive mufflers and
           exhaust systems, shock absorbers and other ride control products, as
           well as brake systems and other automotive products and services
           primarily in the northeastern region of the United States.

           The financial statements include costs relating to marketing
           services, management, administration and other corporate expenses
           allocated by affiliated companies providing such services on a
           modified pro rata basis over the number of shops in North America.
           Expenses have been allocated to the Division's operations by
           affiliated companies of $3,735 for the year ended December 30, 1995,
           $3,520 for the year ended December 28, 1996 and $3,611 for the year
           ended January 3, 1998. The allocation to shops in this Division is
           weighted to account for management's assessment of the relative
           administrative burden of these shops. Management believes the
           allocation to be a reasonable method. The operations of the Division
           are included in the consolidated tax returns of Speedy (U.S.A.) Inc.
           and its affiliated companies. The consolidated current and deferred
           tax expense for the group has been allocated to the Division as if it
           were a separate taxpayer. All amounts related to income taxes are
           included in the Division's intercompany account with Speedy (U.S.A.)
           Inc. (Note 6).

           Pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") dated April 13,
           1998, Bloor has agreed to sell certain assets and the business of the
           Division to Monro Muffler Brake, Inc. ("Monro"). The Agreement
           excludes certain assets and liabilities of the Division, which are
           included in these financial statements. These financial statements
           have been prepared solely for inclusion by Monro in filings with the
           Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") of the United States. These
           financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of the results
           that would have been attained if the Division had been operated as a
           separate legal entity.

           The fiscal year-end of the Division is the Saturday nearest to
           December 31.


2          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

           ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
           The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
           accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
           America and Regulation S-X of the SEC.

           INVENTORIES
           Inventories are carried at the lower of cost and replacement cost
           using the first-in, first-out method.

           CAPITAL ASSETS
           Capital assets are carried at cost. Amortization is provided for
           using the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
           related assets as follows:

           Buildings                10 - 25 years
           Equipment                3 - 12 years
           Leasehold improvements   over the lease term, including options where
                                    applicable

           Certain equipment leases have been capitalized and the related assets
           acquired are classified on the balance sheet as capital assets. These
           assets are being amortized over their useful lives estimated to be
           between five and ten years.

           WARRANTY COSTS
           A provision for the costs associated with providing services under
           warranty is recorded in the financial statements.

           USE OF ESTIMATES
           Financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted
           accounting principles require management to make estimates and
           assumptions about reported assets and liabilities, disclosure of
           contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues
           and expenses. Management must also make estimates and judgements
           about future results of operations related to specific elements of
           the business and operating units in assessing recoverability of
           assets and recorded values of liabilities. Actual results could
           differ from those estimates.

           PENSION COSTS AND OBLIGATIONS
           The cost of the defined contribution plan for salaried employees is
           determined based on the contributions required under the plan.
           Contributions expensed relating to the Division were $391 for the
           year ended December 30, 1995, $317 for the year ended December 28,
           1996 and $281 for the year ended January 3, 1998.

           ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION COSTS
           A provision for the costs associated with environmental remediation
           and site restoration costs is recorded as a charge against income
           when management determines that a liability exists.

7          RESTRUCTURING COSTS

           In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 and prior to the transaction
           outlined in Note 11, the Board of Directors of Speedy established a
           restructuring program to close under-performing stores, reduce
           personnel and enhance administrative efficiencies. Accordingly, a
           provision for restructuring costs of $8,200, before income taxes, has
           been charged to the Division's operations in the current year. A
           portion of the $8,200 restructuring costs relates to the operations
           for which Speedy entered into a sales agreement subsequent to the
           year-end as described in Notes 1 and 11.

           The components of the provision are as follows:

           -    a write-down of capital assets of $3,066, primarily relating to
                leasehold improvements and equipment in leased stores to be
                closed;

           -    a provision of $4,384 for estimated lease payments and operating
                costs for leased properties to be closed; and

           -    severance costs and other costs incidental to the program of 
                $750.

           Balances that remain unpaid at January 3, 1998 are $4,848, of which
           $1,123 is long-term.


8          RECOVERY OF INCOME TAXES

           Recovery of income taxes consists of the following:

                               =====================================
</TABLE>


           Included in the recovery of income taxes is the tax effect of a
           carryback of the Division's losses against taxable income of
           affiliated companies on the consolidated U.S. tax return of $786 for
           the year ended December 30, 1995, $158 for the year ended December
           28, 1996 and $1,572 for the year ended January 3, 1998. Net operating
           losses related to the Division of $4,800 have not been utilized at
           January 3, 1998 in the consolidated U.S. tax return. These losses
           have been carried forward for tax purposes and expire in 2007.

           The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate
           (approximately 40%) due to the impact of certain expenses that are
           not deductible for income tax purposes.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ...CONTINUED
DECEMBER 30, 1995, DECEMBER 28, 1996 AND JANUARY 3, 1998
(IN THOUSANDS OF U.S. DOLLARS)



           Amounts due from Speedy (U.S.A.) Inc. related to the benefits from
           net operating losses of the Division of $6,571 at December 30, 1995,
           $8,050 at December 28, 1996 and $11,800 at January 3, 1998 are
           included in divisional equity (Note 6). No valuation allowance is
           provided as it is more likely than not that the Division will realize
           the amounts due from Speedy (U.S.A.) Inc.

           The Division could be held jointly and severally liable with
           affiliated companies for additional taxes that may be assessed in the
           consolidated tax return.


9          FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

           The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts
           receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate
           fair values due to the short maturity of those instruments.

           The fair value of obligations under capital leases was $3,895 at
           December 30, 1995, $2,601 at December 28, 1996 and $1,360 at January
           3, 1998. The fair value of obligations under capital leases has been
           calculated by discounting future lease payments at the Division's
           estimated cost of borrowing.


10         COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

           SUPPLY AGREEMENT
           Speedy and its subsidiaries, are party to a supply agreement under
           which the companies must purchase not less than specified percentages
           of its annual worldwide exhaust and ride-control requirements
           (measured by the cost of the products purchased) from a supplier
           until 2004, at competitive prices.

           The purchases made pursuant to this supply agreement by the Division
           were approximately $14,900 for the year ended December 30, 1995,
           $14,000 for the year ended December 28, 1996, and $8,800 for the year
           ended January 3, 1998.

           COLLATERAL ARRANGEMENTS
           Speedy (U.S.A.) Inc. and its subsidiaries, are party to a revolving
           bank facility that will mature in 2001. These companies may borrow
           under this facility to a maximum of a borrowing base limited to a
           portion of certain accounts receivable and inventory balances.
           Obligations are secured by the accounts receivable and inventory of
           the Division. The balance outstanding under this facility was $8,000
           as at December 28, 1996 and $9,400 as at January 3, 1998.

           During 1996, Speedy (U.S.A.) Inc., Bloor, Discoverer Services, Inc.
           and Speedy Car-X Inc., in conjunction with Speedy, issued $125,000,
           10.875% Senior Notes maturing in 2006. These companies have
           unconditionally guaranteed the Senior Notes issued.


11         SUBSEQUENT EVENT

           On April 13, 1998, Bloor entered into an agreement to sell company
           operated and franchised stores operating under the Speedy brand in
           the United States for gross proceeds of $52,000 and the assumption of
           $6,000 of liabilities. The sale is subject to a number of provisions
           and holdbacks and to the securing of financing by Monro.

                            MONRO MUFFLER BRAKE, INC.
                UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In September 1998, Monro Muffler Brake, Inc. (Monro or the Company) completed
the acquisition of 189 company-operated and 14 franchised Speedy stores
(acquired stores are part of Speedy Division of Bloor Automotive, Inc. ) from
SMK Speedy International Inc. of Toronto Canada (Speedy). The unaudited Pro
Forma Combined Balance Sheet has been presented assuming the acquisition of
Speedy by Monro occurred as of June 30, 1998. The unaudited Pro Forma Combined
Statements of Income for the year ended March 31, 1998 and for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 have been presented assuming the acquisition was consummated
as of April 1, 1997. For purposes of preparing the Pro Forma Combined Statement
of Income, results from Monro's fiscal year ended March 31, 1998 have been
combined with results from Speedy's fiscal year ended January 3, 1998. For
purposes of preparing the Pro Forma Combined Statement of Income for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998, quarterly information was derived from Speedy's quarterly
statements for the three months ended July 4, 1998. As such, information
relating to Speedy's Statement of Income for the quarter ended April 4, 1998 is
not included in the pro forma financial information. Sales for the acquired
company-operated Speedy stores for the quarter ended April 4, 1998 were
approximately $19 million. The operating loss for the same period was
approximately $3 million. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The
unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the
historical financial statements and notes of Speedy, included elsewhere in this
document, and Monro.
