                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


1.  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements of The Finish Line, Inc.
(the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation, have been included.

     The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience,
significant variability in sales and net income from quarter to quarter.
Therefore, the results of the interim periods presented herein are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim
period or the full year.

     These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended February 29, 1996.

2.  Notes Payable to Bank

     Effective September 1, 1996, the Company amended its unsecured committed
Loan Agreement (the "Facility") dated July 20, 1995 with a commercial bank. The
amendment extended the maturity to September 1, 1999 and set the credit
available at $30,000,000. At August 31, 1996 there were no borrowings
outstanding under the Facility.

     The Facility contains restrictive covenants which limit, among other
things, mergers and dividends. In addition, the Company must maintain a fixed
charge coverage ratio (as defined) of not less than 1.5 to 1.0 and a tangible
net worth of not less than $69,300,000, and funded debt to total capitalization
(as defined) may not exceed 40%. As of August 31, 1996, the Company is in
compliance with all such covenants.

     The interest rate on the Facility is, at the Company's election, either the
bank's Federal Fund Rate plus .625%, the bank's Libor Rate plus .5% or the
bank's prime commercial lending rate. The margin percentage added to the Federal
Fund Rate, and Libor Rate is subject to adjustment quarterly based on the fixed
charge coverage ratio (as defined).
 
3.  Public Offering

     The Company completed a secondary offering (the "Secondary Offering") of
its Class A Common Stock on June 19, 1996 pursuant to which the Company sold
1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at an offering price of $27.50 per
share. Net proceeds to the Company from the Secondary Offering (after deducting
the underwriting discount of $1,781,000 and expenses of $410,000 incurred in
connection with the Secondary Offering) were $33,559,000.

     SECOND QUARTER ENDED 8/31/96 COMPARED TO SECOND QUARTER ENDED 8/31/95

     Net sales increased 40.9% to $91.0 million for the quarter ended August 31,
1996 from $64.6 million for the quarter ended August 31, 1995. This increase in
net sales was primarily attributable to sales from new stores and comparable
store sales increases. As of August 31, 1996, the number of stores in operation
increased 15.2% to 235 from 204 at August 31, 1995. During the quarter ended
August 31, 1996, the Company's comparable store sales increased 16.9% compared
to the same period in the prior year. Comparable net footwear sales for the
quarter ended August 31, 1996 increased approximately 15.4%. Comparable net
activewear and accessories sales for the comparable period increased 20.8%.

                                  PAGE 7 OF 20
<PAGE>
 
     Gross profit for the quarter ended August 31, 1996 was $29.5 million, an
increase of $9.8 million over the quarter ended August 31, 1995. During this
same period, gross profit increased to 32.4% of net sales versus 30.5% for the
prior year. Of this 1.9% increase, 1.2% was due to higher margins for products
sold and .7% was due to a decrease in occupancy costs as a percentage of net
sales.
 
     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.0 million (35.8%)
to $19.0 million (20.9% of net sales) for the quarter ended August 31, 1996 from
$14.0 million (21.7% of net sales) for the quarter ended August 31, 1995. This
dollar increase was primarily attributable to the operating costs related to
operating 31 additional stores at the end of August 31, 1996 versus August 31,
1995.
 
     Net interest income was $137,000 (.1% of net sales) for the quarter ended
August 31, 1996, compared to net interest expense of $229,000 (.3% of net sales)
for the quarter ended August 31, 1995, a decrease of $366,000 or 159.8%. This
decrease resulted primarily due to the proceeds of the secondary offering being
used to repay all existing outstanding indebtedness under its unsecured
committed Loan Agreement with the remainder of the proceeds being invested in
short term interest bearing instruments.

     The Company's provision for federal and state income taxes increased $2.0
million for the quarter ended August 31, 1996. The increase is due to the
increased level of income before income taxes for the quarter ended August 31,
1996, as the effective tax rate was 40% for each of the comparable quarters.

     Fully diluted net income per share increased 74.2% to $.54 for the quarter
ended August 31, 1996 compared to fully diluted net income per share of $.31 for
the quarter ended August 31, 1995.  Fully diluted weighted average shares
outstanding were 11,775,000 and 10,385,000 respectively during the quarters
ended August 31, 1996 and 1995.

SIX MONTHS ENDED 8/31/96 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED 8/31/95

     Net sales increased 39.3% ($45.9 million) to $162.8 million for the six
months ended August 31, 1996 from $116.8 million for the six months ended August
31, 1995.  Of this increase, $21.9 million was attributable to a 15.2%  increase
in the number of stores open (35 stores opened less 4 stores closed) during the
period from  204 at August 31, 1995 to 235 at August 31, 1996.  The balance of
the increase was due to a $5.4 million increase in net sales from the 17 stores
open only part of the first six months of last year and a comparable store sales
increase of 15.0% for the six months ended August 31, 1996.  Comparable net
footwear sales for the six months ended August 31, 1996 increased approximately
14.8%.  Comparable net activewear and accessories increased approximately 15.4%
for the comparable period.  Net sales per square foot increased to $182 from
$160 for the same period of the prior year.

     Gross profit for the six months ended August 31, 1996 was $51.0 million, an
increase of $15.4 million over the six months ended August 31, 1995.  During
this same period, gross profit increased to 31.3% of net sales versus 30.5% for
the prior year.  Of this .8% increase, .6% was due to a decrease in occupancy
expenses as a percentage of net sales and a .2% increase in margins for products
sold.

                                  PAGE 8 OF 20

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $8.7 million (33.0%)
to $35.1 million (21.6% of net sales) for the six months ended August 31, 1996
from $26.4 million (22.6% of net sales) for the six months ended August 31,
1995.  This dollar increase was primarily attributable to the operating costs
related to operating 31 additional stores at August 31, 1996 versus August 31,
1995.
 
     Net interest expense decreased to $57,000 (.0% of net sales) for the six
months ended August 31, 1996, from $359,000 (.3% of net sales) for the six
months ended August 31, 1995, a decrease of $302,000 or 84.1%.  This decrease
resulted from the proceeds of the secondary offering being used to repay all
existing outstanding indebtedness under its unsecured committed Loan Agreement
with the remainder of the proceeds being invested in short term interest bearing
instruments.

     The Company's provision for federal and state income taxes increased $2.8
million for the six months ended August 31, 1996.  The increase is due to the
increased level of income before income taxes for the six months ended August
31, 1996, as the effective tax rate was 40% for each of the comparable six month
periods.

     Fully diluted net income per share increased 66.7% to $.85 for the six
months ended August  31, 1996 compared to fully diluted net income per share of
$.51 for the six months ended August 31, 1995.  Weighted average shares
outstanding were 11,234,000 and 10,353,000 respectively for the six months ended
August 31, 1996 and 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company generated cash of $14.2 million from its operating activities
during the six months ended August 31, 1996 as compared to $6.6 million during
the six months ended August 31, 1995.  The increase in cash generated from
operating activities was primarily the result of increased net income before
depreciation along with an increase in accounts payable (net of merchandise
inventory).

     The Company had a net use of cash from its investing activities, of $8.9
million and $6.3 million for the six months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Of the $8.9 million in 1996, $4.0 million was due to new stores
construction and $4.9 million was for short-term investments.

     The Company had positive working capital of $75.2 million at August 31,
1996 which was an increase of $42.7 million from the working capital of $32.5
million at February 29, 1996. This increase was primarily the result of the
Company's completion of its secondary public offering on June 19, 1996 which
provided net proceeds of $33.6 million plus net income of $9.5 million for the
six month period ended August 31, 1996 which was reinvested in working capital.

     On September 1, 1996, the Company amended its unsecured Loan Agreement with
a commercial bank extending the maturity to September 1, 1999 and set the credit
available at $30,000,000. See also Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements.

     At August 31, 1996 the Company had cash and cash equivelants of $31.9
million and short-term investments of $5.0 million and no interest bearing debt.
The short-term investments range in maturity from 90 days to 180 days while the
majority of cash equiveleants are invested in tax exempt instruments with
maturities of one to seven days.

     Merchandise inventories were $83.0 million at August 31, 1996 compared to
$76.1 million at February 29, 1996.  On a per square foot basis, merchandise
inventories at August 31, 1996 decreased 8.3% compared to August 31, 1995, and
were 4.4% lower than at February 29, 1996.  The Company believes present levels
are appropriate for the selling season and reflects a reduction of aged
inventory.
 
     Recently, President Clinton signed a bill which among other items,
increased the minimum wage effective October 1, 1996 from $4.25 to $4.75 per
hour and subsequently to $5.15 per hour on September 1, 1997. Although many of
the Company's store employees are part-time and paid hourly, the passage of this
bill is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operation.

                       FIRST AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT
                       ---------------------------------


     THIS FIRST AMENDMENT is entered into as of September 1, 1996 by and between
THE FINISH LINE, INC. (the "Borrower") and NBD BANK, N.A. (the "Bank")

                                  WITNESSETH:

1. Standby Fee" originally set forth in the Agreement are replaced in their
   entirety as follows:

     "Applicable Commitment Fee" means the per annum percentage of the unused
portion of the Commitment to be paid to the Bank pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof,
determined by reference to the   WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Bank have entered
into a certain Loan Agreement dated July 20, 1995 (the "Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Bank desire to confirm certain modifications
to the Agreement;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties agree as follows:

The definition of the terms "Applicable Commitment Fee", "Applicable Margin" and
"Applicable Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, in accordance with the
following table:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
     FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO                  APPLICABLE COMMITMENT FEE
     <S>                                          <C>
          Greater than 2.5                                 0.100%
            2.25 to 2.5                                    0.125%
            2.0 to 2.24                                    0.150%
           1.75 to 1.99                                    0.200%
            1.5 to 1.74                                    0.250%
</TABLE>

     The Applicable Commitment Fee will accrue and be payable with respect to
any fiscal quarter on the basis of the Applicable Commitment Fee determined as
of the end of the immediately preceding quarter, as derived from the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio determined from financial statements of the Borrower
delivered by the Bank pursuant to Section 5.4. The Applicable Commitment Fee
shall be adjusted if appropriate, quarterly, within ten (10) days following the
delivery of the financial statements of the Borrower for a fiscal quarter
furnished to the Bank pursuant to the requirements of Section 5.4 which
indicates the Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio has changed as of the end
of any fiscal quarter. In the event the Borrower fails to provide the quarterly
financial statements pursuant to the requirements of Section 5.4, the Fixed
Charge Coverage Ratio will be presumed to be the lowest ratio set forth in the
above table.

                                 PAGE 14 OF 20
<PAGE>
 
     "Applicable Margin" means that per annum percentage to be added to each of
the LIBOR Rate or Federal Funds Rate at which interest will accrue on the
Advances, determined by reference to the Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio,
as calculated from the Borrower's quarterly financial statements, all in
accordance with the following table:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
 FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO      LIBOR MARGIN         FEDERAL FUNDS MARGIN
 <S>                              <C>                  <C>
      Greater than 2.5                0.375%                 0.500%
        2.25 to 2.5                   0.500%                 0.625%
        2.0 to 2.24                   0.750%                 0.875%
       1.75 to 1.99                   1.000%                 1.125%
        1.5 to 1.74                   1.250%                 1.375%
</TABLE>

     The Applicable Margin shall be adjusted if appropriate, quarterly, within
ten (10) days following the delivery of the financial statements of the Borrower
for a fiscal quarter furnished to the Bank pursuant to the requirements of
Section 5.4 which indicates the Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio has
changed as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Interest will accrue and be payable
in any fiscal quarter on the basis of the Applicable Margin in effect at the end
of the preceding fiscal quarter unless prior to the commencement of such fiscal
quarter the Borrower has delivered its financial statements for a preceding
fiscal quarter which reflect a change in the calculated Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio as of the end of a preceding quarter. In the event the Borrower fails to
provide the quarterly financial statements pursuant to the requirements of
Section 5.4, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be presumed to be the lowest
ratio set forth in the above table.

          "Applicable Standby Fee" means the per annum percentage of the amount
of any standby letter of credit issued by Bank for the account of Borrower under
the Commitment to be paid to the Bank pursuant to Section 2.1 (G) hereof,
determined by reference to the Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, in
accordance with the following table:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
     FIXED CHARGE COVERAGE RATIO                  APPLICABLE STANDBY FEE
     <S>                                          <C>
          Greater than 2.5                                0.375
            2.25 to 2.5                                   0.50%
            2.0 to 2.24                                   0.75%
           1.75 to 1.99                                   1.00%
            1.5 to 1.74                                   1.25%
</TABLE>

     The standby letter of credit commission will be determined and payable with
respect to any standby letter of credit issued at any time on the basis of the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio determined as of the end of the most recently ended
fiscal quarter (the "Determination Quarter"). The Applicable Standby Fee shall
be adjusted if appropriate, quarterly, within ten (10) days following the
delivery of the financial statements of the Borrower for a fiscal quarter
furnished to the Bank pursuant to the requirements of Section 5.4 which
indicates the Borrower's Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio has changed as of the end
of any fiscal quarter. In the event the Borrower fails to provide the
quarterly financial statements pursuant to the requirements of Section 5.4, the
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be presumed to be the lowest ratio set forth in
the above table.

2.   A new definition is added to the Agreement as follows:

     "Base Minimum Rental Expense" means the base rental expense that Borrower
incurs with respect to operating leases for store locations operated by it, but
excluding any part of such expense that Borrower would not be obligated to pay
if it was not actually operating at such location ( i.e. percentage rent based
on sales).

                                 PAGE 15 OF 20
<PAGE>
 
3. The original definition of the term "Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio" is replaced
   as follows

     "Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio"  means the ratio of earnings before taxes,
interest expense and Base Minimum Rental Expense to interest expense plus Base
Minimum Rental Expense, as calculated on a rolling four quarter basis as
measured as of the end of the quarter most recently ended on the date of
determination.

4.   The parties agree that the Applicable Margin as of the date of this First
Amendment is based on the Borrower's financial statements for the fiscal quarter
ending May 31, 1996, and is based on a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 2.13 as of
the quarter ending May 31, 1996. The next calculation of the Applicable Margin
will be made upon receipt of the Borrower's financial statements for the quarter
ending August 31, 1996.

5.   The definitions "CD Advance", "CD Base Rate", "CD Loan", "CD Rate", and "CD
Reserve Percentage" are deleted from the Agreement. The option to procure
Advances with pricing indexed to a CD Base Rate is eliminated from the
Agreement. All future Advances under the Agreement shall either be Prime Rate
Advances, Federal Funds Rate Advances or LIBOR Advances".

6.   The parties confirm that the amount of the activated Commitment of the Bank
under Section 2.1 (A) of the Agreement has been increased from $25,000,000 to
$30,000,000. Borrower shall execute and deliver an Amended and Restated
Promissory Note in the amount of the increased Commitment in the form of Exhibit
A attached hereto, which shall then become the "Note" under the Agreement.

7.   The maturity date of September 1, 1997 originally set forth in Sections 2.1
(A) and (F) is hereby extended from September 1, 1997 to September 1, 1999.

8.   The financial covenant contained in Section 5.3 (A) of the Agreement is
replaced as follows:

     (A)  Tangible Net Worth.   The Borrower, on a consolidated basis, will at
          -------------------
all times until February 28, 1997, maintain a Tangible Net Worth of not less
than $69,300,000, which minimum amount (1) will increase as of February 28, 1997
and as of the end of each fiscal year thereafter by an amount equal to the sum
of 50% of net income for such fiscal year, rounded upward to the nearest
$100,000 (with no downward adjustment for net losses in any year) and (2) will
increase by an amount equivalent to 80% of net proceeds received by the Borrower
from equity offerings, rounded upward to the nearest $100,000 and effective as
of the date of receipt of such proceeds.

9.   The termination date set forth in Section 8.12 of the Agreement is changed
to September 1, 1999.

10.  Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Bank that there does not
presently exist any default under the Agreement or any event which with the
notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default under the Agreement
and that each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Agreement
remain true and correct as of the date hereof, except to the extent said
representations and warranties specifically apply to those items explicitly
modified by or otherwise disclosed in this Modification, and each of said
representations and warranties is hereby incorporated herein by reference and
modified as necessary to apply to and cover the undertakings of the Borrower
evidenced or contemplated by this Modification.

11.  All other terms, conditions, provisions, representations and warranties set
forth in the Agreement not specifically relating to those items explicitly
modified by or otherwise disclosed in this Modification shall remain unchanged
and shall continue in full force and effect. This Modification shall, whenever
possible, be construed in a manner consistent with the Agreement; provided,
however, in the event of any irreconcilable inconsistency between the terms of
this Modification and the terms of the Agreement, the terms of this Modification
shall control.

                                 PAGE 16 OF 20
<PAGE>
 
12.  No provision hereof shall constitute a waiver of any of the terms or
conditions of the Agreement other than those terms or otherwise disclosed in
this Modification. Borrower hereby represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees
that there exists no offsets, counterclaims or defenses to payment or
performance of the obligations set forth in the Agreement.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower and Bank have executed this First Amendment by
their duly authorized representatives effective as of September 1, 1996.

               AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE (UNSECURED)
               ----------------------------------------------- 

$30,000,000.00                                             INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA
                                                               September 1, 1996

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, The Finish Line, Inc. ("Borrower"), a Delaware
corporation, having its principal offices at 3308 Mifthoeffer Road,
Indianapolis, Indiana 46236 unconditionally promises to pay to the order of NBD
Bank, N.A. (the "Bank"), a national banking association, having its principal
banking offices at One Indiana Square, Indianapolis, Indiana 46266, the lesser
of (i) principal sum of THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS ($30,000,000.00) or (ii) the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Advances made by the Bank to Borrower
pursuant to the provisions of that certain Loan Agreement dated as of July 20, 1
995, as amended, by and between Borrower and the Bank (the "Loan Agreement"), in
lawful money of the United States of America. Interest on the balance of the
principal remaining unpaid from time to time shall be payable at the rate per
annum equal to the rates of interest as provided in the Loan Agreement and with
interest after maturity at two percent (2%) per annum in excess of the
applicable interest rates, until paid, all without relief from valuation and
appraisement laws.

     Interest at the specified rate shall be due and payable on the dates as
provided in the Loan Agreement. If not sooner paid, the balance of the unpaid
principal and all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the
1st day of September, 1999. Payments of principal and interest shall be made at
One Indiana Square, Indianapolis, Indiana 46266.

     This Note is given to evidence a Loan made to Borrower pursuant to the Loan
Agreement. This Note is referred to in, and is entitled to the benefits and
further security of the Loan Agreement. This Note is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Loan Agreement including those which determine the interest
rates when payment of this Note may be accelerated and all amounts hereunder
declared immediately due and payable, and when payments of principal and
interest may be made. If not defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have
the meaning as defined in the Loan Agreement. This Note amends and restates a
prior promissory note delivered pursuant to the Agreement and evidences a
continuation of the indebtedness described in such prior note.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement, the
whole sum of principal and accrued interest shall, at the option of the Bank,
immediately become due and payable. Said option shall continue until such
defaults have been cured.

     Borrower expressly waives demand, presentment, protest, notice of protest,
and notice of nonpayment or dishonor of the Note, and consents that the Bank may
extend the time of payment or otherwise modify the terms of payment of any part
of the whole of the debt evidenced by this Note, at the request of any other
person liable hereon, and such consent shall not alter nor diminish the
liability of any person.

     No delay or omission on the part of the Bank in the exercise of any right
or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise
by the Bank of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise
thereof or of any other right or remedy.

     Borrower agrees to pay all costs of collection, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, in case the principal of this Note or any payment on the

Note:  Average shares outstanding used for net income per share included in the
Company's financial statements reflect the effect of the stock options granted
since their effect is more than 3% dilutive. Only fully diluted earnings per
share have been disclosed in the Company's financial statements as primary
earnings per share are substantially the same.
