                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


1.   Basis of Presentation


      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of  The
Finish Line, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Spike's Holding, Inc.
(collectively, 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 reporting period to
reporting period.  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.


      Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this filing are forward looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in any of the forward looking statements.  Such risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, product demand and market
acceptance risks, the effect of economic conditions, the effect of competitive
products and pricing, the availability of products, management of growth, and
the other risks detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission
filings.


      These financial statements should be read in  conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended February 28, 1998.


2.  FAS 130 Comprehensive Income


      As of March 1, 1998 the Company adopted FAS Statement 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income.  Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components.  The adoption of the
statement had no impact on the Company's net income, shareholders equity or
financial statement presentation as the Company has no comprehensive income
components.

</TABLE>


THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MAY 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MAY 31, 1997


      Net sales increased 33.2% to $116.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended
May 30, 1998 from $87.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997.  Of
this increase, $18.2 million was attributable to a 18.8% increase in the number
of stores open during the period from 266 at May 31, 1997 to 316 at May 30,
1998.  The balance of the increase was attributable to a $1.6 million increase
in net sales from the fifteen existing stores open only part of the first three
months of last year and a comparable store sales increase of 8.2% for the
thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998 for those stores opened during the entire
three months of last year.  Comparable net footwear sales for the thirteen weeks
ended May 30, 1998 increased 9.4% versus the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997.
Comparable net activewear and accessories increased 4.5% for the comparable
period.  Net sales per square foot were $77 for both periods presented.


      Gross profit for the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998 was $35.2 million,
an increase of $8.6 million over the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997.  During
this same period, gross profit decreased to 30.2% of net sales versus 30.4% for
the prior year.  Of this .2% decrease, .4% was due to an increase in occupancy
costs as a percentage of net sales which was partially offset by a .2% increase
in margin for products sold.

                                 Page 7 of 12
<PAGE>
 
      Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.4 million
(31.8%) to $26.5 million (22.7% of net sales) for the thirteen weeks ended May
30, 1998 from $20.1 million (22.9% of net sales) for the thirteen weeks ended
May 31, 1997.  This dollar increase was primarily attributable to the operating
costs related to operating 50 additional stores at May 30, 1998 versus May 31,
1997.   The decrease as a percentage of net sales is primarily a result of the
comparable stores net sales increase of 8.2% for the thirteen weeks along with
improved expense controls.


      Net interest income was $490,000 (.4% of net sales) for the thirteen week
period ended May 30, 1998, compared to net interest income of $722,000 (.8% of
net sales) for the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997, a decrease of $232,000.
This decrease was the result of reduced invested cash balances due to the
Company's funding of fiscal 1998 expansion.


      The Company's provision for income taxes increased $730,000 for the
thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998.  The increase is due to the increased level
of income before income taxes for the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998,
partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate to 38.0% for the
thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1998 from 38.25% for the thirteen weeks ended May
31, 1997.


      Net income increased 27.6% to $5.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended
May 30, 1998 compared to $4.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997.
Diluted net income per share increased 29.4% to $.22 for the thirteen weeks
ended May 30, 1998 compared to $.17 for the thirteen weeks ended May 31, 1997.
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding were 26,505,000 and 26,336,000,
respectively, for the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


      The Company had a net use of cash of $513,000 from its operating
activities during the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998 as compared to a net use
of cash from operating activities of $3.9 million during the quarter ended May
31, 1997.


      The Company had a net use of cash from its investing activities, of $9.8
million and $716,000 for the thirteen weeks ended May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997,
respectively.  Of the $9.8 million in 1998, $9.4 million was used for new and
remodeled stores construction and the completion on an addition to the corporate
offices.


      The Company's working capital was $123.1 million at May 30, 1998 which was
a $2.3 million increase in working capital from $120.8 million at February 28,
1998.

                                 Page 8 of 12
<PAGE>
 
      Merchandise inventories were $129.3 million at May 30, 1998 compared to
$130.2 million at February 28, 1998.  On a per square foot basis, merchandise
inventories at May 30, 1998 increased 3.8% compared to May 31, 1997, and were
8.8% lower than at February 28, 1998.  The Company believes present levels are
appropriate for the selling season.


      At May 30, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19.5
million and short-term marketable securities of $8.8 million.  Cash equivalents
are primarily invested in tax exempt instruments with maturities of one to
twenty-eight days.  Short-term marketable securities range in maturity from 90-
365 days from date of purchase and are primarily invested in tax exempt
municipal obligations.  In addition, the Company held long-term marketable
securities of $17.3 million at May 30, 1998.  Long-term marketable securities
are primarily invested in tax exempt municipal obligations with maturities
ranging from one to six years.


      The Company's previously announced expansion plans are to increase its
retail square footage by approximately 30% for fiscal 1999.  Management believes
that cash on hand, operating cash flow and borrowings under the Company's
existing bank facility will be sufficient to complete the Company's fiscal 1999
store expansion program and to satisfy the Company's other capital requirements
through fiscal 1999.


As is commonly known, there is a potential issue facing companies regarding the
ability of information systems to accommodate the year 2000.  The Company has
completed an assessment and will have to modify portions of its software so that
its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year
2000 and thereafter.  The Company believes that with modifications to existing
software and conversions to new software, the year 2000 issue will not pose
significant operational problems for its computer systems.  The costs related to
these modifications are not expected to exceed $250,000.
