                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Three month period ended June 30, 1996 compared with the three month period
ended July 2, 1995

      Net  sales  in 1996 and 1995  were  $78.6  and  $68.2,  respectively,  an
increase  of $10.4 or 15.2%.  The  increase in net sales was  primarily  due to
higher sales of cigars.  Cigar sales increased  primarily as a result of both a
shift in sales mix to higher priced cigars and price increases on certain cigar
brands  and,  to  a  slightly  lesser  extent,  an  increase  in  cigar  units,
particularly in the premium market.

      Cost of sales  were  $44.4 and $40.0 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  an
increase  of $4.4 or  11.0%.  The  increase  in cost of  sales  in 1996 was due
primarily to the increase in sales.  As a  percentage  of sales,  cost of sales
improved  to  56.5%  in  1996  from  58.7%  in  1995  primarily  due  to  fixed
manufacturing  costs spread over increased net sales and an insurance  recovery
related to damaged inventory.

      Selling,  general and  administrative  ("SG&A")  expenses  were $15.3 and
$10.4 in 1996 and  1995,  respectively.  As a  percentage  of net  sales,  SG&A
expenses were 19.5% in 1996 and 15.2% in 1995. The increase  primarily reflects
increased  marketing  and  selling  expenses  and the  inclusion  of  corporate
expenses of MC Group in 1996.

      Interest  expense was $6.5 and $6.9 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The
decrease was due to a lower amount of debt outstanding in 1996 partially offset
by interest accretion on certain liabilities assumed in the Merger.

      Interest,  investment  and  dividend  income was $1.6 and $.6 in 1996 and
1995,  respectively.  The increase  primarily  reflects interest income on cash
acquired in connection with the Merger.

      Equity in earnings from continuing  operations and preferred dividends of
PCT represent the Company's interest in the continuing operations of the common
stock of PCT acquired in July 1995 and  preferred  dividends  on the  Company's
investment in PCT preferred stock.

      The  provision  for income taxes as a percentage  of income before income
taxes was 30.2% in the 1996 and 29.0% in 1995.  The  increase in the  effective
rate is primarily due to an increase in the provision for federal  income taxes
during 1996  partially  offset by tax benefits  associated  with the  Company's
operations in Puerto Rico.  Income tax expense in 1996 reflects  provisions for
federal  income  taxes,  Puerto  Rico  tollgate  taxes and taxes on Puerto Rico
source income,  together with state and franchise taxes.  Income tax expense in
1995 reflects a provision  for Puerto Rico  tollgate  taxes and taxes on Puerto
Rico  source  income,  together  with state  income  and  franchise  taxes.  In
addition,  1995  reflects a provision  for  federal  income  taxes,  net of tax
benefits  resulting from the utilization of Consolidated  Cigar's net operating
loss carryforwards.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                   (Dollars in millions, except share data)



      Equity in  discontinued  operations  of PCT,  net of income  taxes  which
reflect a dividend  exclusion  deduction,  represents the Company's interest in
the  discontinued  operations  of PCT,  including  the  gain  on sale of  PCT's
aerospace business.

Six month period ended June 30, 1996 compared with the six month period ended
July 2, 1995

      Net sales in 1996 and 1995  were  $144.7  and  $126.6,  respectively,  an
increase  of $18.1 or 14.3%.  The  increase in net sales was  primarily  due to
higher sales of cigars.  Cigar sales increased  primarily as a result of both a
shift in sales mix to higher priced cigars and price increases on certain cigar
brands  and,  to  a  slightly  lesser  extent,  an  increase  in  cigar  units,
particularly in the premium market.

      Cost of sales  were  $82.7 and $74.6 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  an
increase  of $8.1 or  10.9%.  The  increase  in cost of  sales  in 1996 was due
primarily to the increase in sales.  As a  percentage  of sales,  cost of sales
improved  to  57.2%  in  1996  from  58.9%  in  1995  primarily  due  to  fixed
manufacturing  costs spread over increased net sales and an insurance  recovery
related to damaged inventory.

      SG&A expenses were $27.5 and $19.9 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  As a
percentage of net sales,  SG&A expenses were 19.0% in the 1996 period and 15.7%
in the 1995 period. The increase  primarily  reflects  increased  marketing and
selling  expenses and the  inclusion  of corporate  expenses of MC Group in the
1996 period.

      Interest expense was $12.8 and $13.6 in 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The
decrease was due to a lower amount of debt outstanding in 1996 partially offset
by interest accretion on certain liabilities assumed in the Merger.

      Interest,  investment  and  dividend  income was $3.4 and $.7 in 1996 and
1995,  respectively.  The increase  primarily  reflects interest income on cash
acquired in connection with the Merger.

      Equity in earnings  from  continuing  operations  of PCT  represents  the
Company's interest in the continuing operations of common stock of PCT acquired
in July  1995  and  preferred  dividends  on the  Company's  investment  in PCT
preferred stock.

      The  provision  for income taxes as a percentage  of income before income
taxes was 30.7% in the 1996 and 31.1% in 1995.  The  decrease in the  effective
rate is primarily due to tax benefits associated with the Company's  operations
in Puerto  Rico.  Income tax expense in 1996  reflects  provisions  for federal
income  taxes,  Puerto  Rico  tollgate  taxes and taxes on Puerto  Rico  source
income,  together  with state and franchise  taxes.  Income tax expense in 1995
reflects a provision  for Puerto Rico  tollgate  taxes and taxes on Puerto Rico
source  income,  together  with minimal state income and  franchise  taxes.  In
addition,  1995  reflects a provision  for  federal  income  taxes,  net of tax
benefits  resulting from the utilization of Consolidated  Cigar's net operating
loss carryforwards.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                   (Dollars in millions, except share data)

      Equity in  discontinued  operations  of PCT,  net of income  taxes  which
reflect a dividend  exclusion  deduction,  represents the Company's interest in
the  discontinued  operations  of PCT,  including  the  gain  on sale of  PCT's

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
- ----------------------------------------------------

      The Company's net cash flows provided by operating  activities were $15.3
and $10.6 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The  increase  reflects  higher net
income and decreased working capital  requirements in 1996 as compared to 1995.
The Company's  working  capital  requirements,  especially for  inventory,  are
affected by customer demand,  current and prospective supplies of raw materials
and raw material prices. Management expects that inventory levels will continue
to fluctuate in the future as the Company takes advantage of  opportunities  to
purchase quality  inventory at favorable prices while maintaining its policy of
purchasing some raw materials,  particularly  licorice root, from all available
sources to maintain  relationships  with its  suppliers and ensure a continuous
supply of such raw materials.

      Cash flows (used in)  provided by  investing  activities  were $(4.5) and
$179.0  in 1996 and  1995,  respectively.  In 1996,  these  activities  consist
primarily  of capital  expenditures.  Capital  expenditures  in 1996  primarily
relate  to  investments  in the  Company's  manufacturing  facilities  to  meet
increased demand for the Company's premium cigars. The Company is expanding its
existing manufacturing facilities in the Dominican Republic and Honduras and is
constructing,  as part of a joint  venture,  new  facilities  in  Jamaica.  The
Company currently expects that its facility expansion projects in the Dominican
Republic  and  Honduras  and  the  construction  projects  in  Jamaica  will be
completed by the end of 1996.  Capital  expenditures  for the remainder of 1996
are expected to be $3.4,  including funding for the construction  project.  The
capital  expenditures in 1995 primarily  relate to investments in manufacturing
equipment  and are  part of the  continual  maintenance  and  upgrading  of the
Company's  manufacturing  facilities.  For  1996,  $0.5 of cash  flows was also
invested,  as part of an equity investment,  in the Jamaican joint venture. The
1995  period  consists  primarily  of cash  acquired  in the Abex merger net of
transaction costs.

      Cash flows used in financing  activities  were $4.6 and $32.7 in 1996 and
1995,  respectively.  The 1996 period  primarily  reflects  net  repayments  of
borrowings. The 1995 period reflects dividends paid to Mafco Holdings of $14.0,
an increase in restricted  deposits of $15.7 and net repayment of borrowings of
$3.0.

      Availability  for borrowings  under Mafco  Worldwide's  revolving  credit
facility was $20.7 at June 30, 1996 and $3.3 of this revolving  credit facility
had been  reserved to support  lender  guarantees  for  outstanding  letters of
credit. As of June 29, 1996, there was approximately $17.4 unused and available
under  Consolidated  Cigar's credit agreement after taking into account amounts
utilized to support  letters of credit.  Given the  availability  of borrowings
under these credit  agreements  and cash flow generated  from  operations,  the
Company does not currently foresee the need to incur additional indebtedness to
meet its ongoing operating needs during 1996.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                   (Dollars in millions, except share data)


      In 1993 and 1994,  Consolidated Cigar entered into two five-year interest
rate swap agreements in an aggregate  notional amount of $85.0. Under the terms
of the agreements,  Consolidated Cigar receives a fixed interest rate averaging
5.8%  and  pays a  variable  interest  rate  equal  to  the  six  month  LIBOR.
Consolidated  Cigar  entered  into such  agreements  to take  advantage  of the
differential  between  long-term and short-term  interest rates and effectively
converted the interest rate on $85.0 of fixed-rate  indebtedness  to a variable
rate. Had Consolidated  Cigar terminated these agreements which it considers to
be held for other than trading  purposes on July 17,  1996, a combined  loss of
approximately  $2.1 would have been realized.  Future positive or negative cash
flows  associated with these contracts will depend upon the trend of short-term
interest  rates during the remaining  life of the  agreements.  In the event of
non-performance  of the counterparties at anytime during the remaining lives of
these agreements  which expire at December 1998 and January 1999,  Consolidated
Cigar  could  lose some or all of any  future  positive  cash  flows.  However,
Consolidated Cigar does not anticipate non-performance by such counterparties.

      The Company's operating businesses intend to fund future working capital,
capital  expenditure and debt service  requirements for the foreseeable  future
through cash flow generated from  operations and borrowings  under their credit
agreements.  The credit  agreements of  Consolidated  Cigar and Mafco Worldwide
prohibit  the  payment  of  dividends  and  distribution  of funds to MC Group,
subject to certain  limited  exceptions.  MC Group is a holding company with no
business  operations of its own. MC Group's cash  requirements  for liabilities
assumed in the  Merger are  expected  to be met from the cash  received  in the
Merger.  MC Group may also acquire  additional  operating  assets and may raise
capital through debt or equity  financings or through  refinancings of existing
indebtedness  of its operating  companies.  However,  there can be no assurance
that any of such  financings  or  refinancings  could be  accomplished  or,  if
accomplished, effected on terms satisfactory to MC Group.
