NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

             The above financial statements have been prepared by
        Kennedy-Wilson, Inc. a Delaware corporation, and subsidiaries (the
        "Company") without audit by independent public accountants, pursuant to
        the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
        Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The statements, in
        the opinion of the Company, present fairly the financial position and
        results of operations for the dates and periods indicated. The results
        of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
        results to be expected for full fiscal years. 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. The Company believes that the
        disclosures contained in the financial statements are adequate to make
        the information presented not misleading. These financial statements
        should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
        notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
        the year ended December 31, 1999. Certain reclassifications have been
        made to prior period balances to conform to the current period
        presentation. In accordance with SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
        Income, the Company does not have any material disclosure items under
        comprehensive income.

NOTE 2 - NOTES RECEIVABLE

             Notes receivable consists primarily of non-performing notes and
        related assets acquired from financial institutions. A majority of these
        notes are typically collateralized by real estate, personal property or
        guarantees.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS WITH RELATED PARTIES AND NON-AFFILIATES

             The Company has a number of partnerships and joint venture
        interests ranging from 2% to 50%, some with former related parties, that
        were formed to acquire, manage, develop and or sell real estate. These
        investments are accounted for under the equity method. Investments with
        related parties and non-affiliates also include mezzanine loans to real
        estate developers for new single-family residential developments.

NOTE 4 - REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE

             Real estate held for sale is comprised of commercial and
        residential properties and land, and is accounted for at the lower of
        carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Real estate is
        classified as held for sale since the Company's intent is to acquire and
        dispose of properties as part of its normal course of business.

NOTE 5 - SUBORDINATED DEBT

             During the first quarter of 2000, the Company paid down $5.0
        million of its subordinated debt.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

        OVERVIEW

             We are an international real estate services and investment
        company. We provide property management and leasing services, asset
        management, commercial and residential brokerage, and auction services
        to clients primarily in the U.S. and Japan. Our clients include
        financial institutions, major corporations, real estate developers,
        insurance companies and governmental agencies. We also invest in
        commercial and residential real estate, as well as individual and pools
        of distressed notes both in the U.S. and Japan.

        COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

        TOTAL REVENUES

             Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were
        approximately $37.5 million, which represents a 122.6% increase over
        $16.9 million for the same period in 1999. Earnings before taxes for the
        three months ended March 31, 2000 were $2.2 million, which represents a
        26.8% increase over the same period in 1999 of $1.8 million. Net income
        for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $1.7 million, which
        represents a 43.9% increase over $1.2 million for March 31, 1999.

             Property Management. Property management and leasing operations
        generated approximately $8.5 million of revenues in the first quarter of
        2000, representing 22.6% of our total revenue and a 30.1% increase over
        property management revenue of approximately $6.5 million for the same
        period in 1999. During 1999, we acquired five property management
        companies. As of March 31, 2000, we had under management a portfolio of
        approximately 75 million square feet of commercial, industrial and
        apartment properties located in 26 states and the District of Columbia.

             Brokerage. Brokerage commission revenues for the first quarter of
        2000 were approximately $2.5 million, representing 6.6% of total
        revenues and a 13.9% increase over brokerage commission revenues for the
        first quarter of 1999 of approximately $2.2 million. The increase
        reflects the continued expansion of our brokerage services both in the
        U.S. and Japan, as well as our tenant representation business.

             Investments. Sales of residential real estate were approximately
        $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, representing
        61.3% of total revenues and a 363.3% increase over approximately $5.0
        million for the same three month in 1999. This increase is due to sales
        from three projects, including the sale of a 53-unit condominium complex
        in West Los Angeles, fifteen units in a 109 unit single family
        development in Cathedral City, CA, and a single family home in West Los
        Angeles. This compares to revenues for the first quarter of 1999 from
        the sale of fifteen units of a 23 unit single family development in Palm
        Desert. The sales of residential real estate for both years reflect our
        continuing strategy to sell upon completion of planned improvements,
        rather than holding for speculation.

             Equity in income of investments with related parties and
        non-affiliates totaled approximately $1.3 million for the first quarter
        in 2000, or 3.6% of total revenue compared to $455,000 realized in the
        first quarter during 1999. Revenue from the mezzanine lending was
        approximately $792,000 for the period ended March 31, 2000, compared to
        $57,000 in the same period in 1999 due to maturing projects associated
        with the loans.

             Gains on restructured notes totaled $1.4 million for the period
        ended March 31, 2000, or 3.7% of total revenues, a 109.4% increase from
        $672,000 for the period ended March 31, 1999. The gain reflects our
        continued progress in liquidating our portfolios of distressed notes
        that were purchased at substantial discounts to face value both in the
        U.S. and Japan. Our strategy to collect the note balances consists of
        either restructuring the note to performing status, negotiating a
        payoff, or foreclosing and selling the related collateral.

             Net rental income decreased to $77,000 for the first quarter of
        2000 from approximately $1.7 million during the same period of 1999 as a
        result of the sale of 6255 Sunset Blvd. office building, and the
        deconsolidation of the single purpose entities which acquired the
        commercial properties located at 1055 Wilshire Blvd., 6380 Wilshire
        Blvd, 5900 Sepulveda Blvd., 7080 Hollywood and 301 South Fair Oaks.

        TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES

             Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2000 were approximately
        $35.3 million, representing a 133.9% increase over $15.0 million for the
        same period in 1999. Part of the increase represents the higher cost of
        goods sold associated with the sales of residential real estate
        discussed above. The balance of the increase in operating expense was
        primarily associated with the five property management companies
        acquired in 1999. The increase was offset by the reductions in interest
        expense and depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the
        deconsolidation of the commercial properties as discussed above.

             Brokerage commissions and marketing expenses increased to $93,000
        for the period ended March 31, 2000 from $52,000 during the same period
        of 1999, primarily as a result of the increased probate sales, which are
        relatively more expensive than sealed bid sales or traditional brokerage
        sales.

             Cost of residential real estate sold was approximately $20.3
        million for the period ended March 31, 2000, a 321.9% increase from
        approximately $4.8 million for the same period in 1999. The increase
        correlates with the increased revenues from the sales of residential
        real estate discussed above.

             Compensation and related expenses was approximately $8.1 million
        for the first quarter of 2000, up 142.5% from approximately $3.4 million
        for the first quarter of 1999. The increase was primarily a result of
        the acquisition of five additional property management companies in
        1999.

             General and administrative expenses were approximately $4.4 million
        for the first quarter of 2000, representing a 43.5% increase over the
        same period in 1999 expenses of approximately $3.0 million. The increase
        is due primarily to the additional expenses associated with our expanded
        property management operations.

             Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $970,000 for the
        period ended March 31, 2000, a 58.8% increase over the $611,000 during
        the same period of 1999. The increase was due, in part, to the
        amortization of the goodwill and property management contracts
        associated with the acquisition of the property management companies.

             Interest expense was approximately $1.5 million for the first
        quarter of 2000, compared to approximately $3.2 million during the same
        period in 1999, representing a 45.9% decrease. The decrease resulted
        from the elimination of the interest expense associated with the five
        commercial properties as discussed above.

             The provision for income taxes was $564,000 for the first quarter
        in 2000, a 6.7% decrease compared to $603,000 for the first quarter of
        1999 as a result of the reversal of an accrual in 1999.

        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

             Our liquidity and capital resources requirements include
        expenditures for distressed notes pools, the acquisition of property
        management portfolios, real estate held for sale, and working capital
        needs. Historically, we have not required significant capital resources
        to support our brokerage operations. We finance our operations with
        internally generated funds and borrowings under our revolving lines of
        credit as described below. Our investments in real estate are typically
        financed by mortgage loans secured primarily by that real estate. These
        mortgage loans are generally nonrecourse in that, in the event of
        default, recourse will be limited to the mortgaged property serving as
        collateral, subject to certain exceptions that are standard in the real
        estate industry.

             Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended
        March 31, 2000 was approximately $6.8 million, compared to approximately
        $1.6 million in cash used in operating activities for the same period in
        1999. The change included an increase in other assets, offset by the
        decrease in accrued expenses and accounts payable.

             Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended
        March 31, 2000 was approximately $2.8, compared to approximately $8.6
        million in cash used by investing activities during the same period in
        1999. The change resulted primarily from the purchase and sale of a
        condominium complex as well as contributions made to various joint
        ventures.

             Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $6.6
        million for the first quarter of 2000, compared to cash provided by
        financing activities for the same period of 1999 of about $8.1 million.
        The change resulted from an increase in notes payable, offset by the pay
        down of the Company's subordinated debt.

             To the extent that we engage in additional strategic investments,
        we may need to obtain third party financing which could include bank
        financing or the public sale or private placement of debt or equity
        securities. We believe that existing cash, plus capital generated from
        property management and leasing, brokerage, sales of real estate owned,
        collections from notes receivable, as well as our current unsecured $39
        million lines of credit with East-West Bank and Tokai Bank, will provide
        us with sufficient capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

             We intend to retain earnings to finance our growth and, therefore,
        do not anticipate paying any dividends. We believe that funds generated
        from operations together with existing cash and available credit under
        our credit facilities will be sufficient to finance our current
        operations, planned investments, acquisitions of the property management
        companies, and internal growth. Our need, if any, to raise additional
        funds to meet our working capital and capital requirements will depend
        on numerous factors, including the success and pace of the
        implementation of our strategy for growth. We regularly monitor capital
        raising alternatives to be able to take advantage of other available
        avenues to support our working capital and investment needs, including
        strategic partnerships and other alliances, bank borrowings, and the
        sale of equity or debt securities.
