                               NAVARRE CORPORATION
        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                                  JUNE 30, 1997



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Navarre Corporation and its
majority owned subsidiaries, Digital Entertainment, Inc. and Net Radio, Inc.,
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Because of the seasonal nature of the Company's business, the
operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
March 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in Navarre Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended March 31, 1997.

NOTE B - NET LOSS PER SHARE

Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares from stock
options are excluded from the computation as their effect is antidilutive. In
February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB
Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". This Statement replaces the
presentation of primary earnings per share (EPS) with basic EPS and also
requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS for entities with complex
capital structures. This statement is effective for financial statements for
periods ending after December 15, 1997. For quarter ended June 30, 1997, there
is no difference between the basic loss share under Statement No. 128 and net
loss per share as reported.

                                             ============== ==============

Certain of this information in this section contains forward-looking statements.
The Company's actual results could differ materially from the statements
contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors,
including risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business, the
consumer market for music products and computer software products, retail
customer buying patterns, new or different competition in the Company's
traditional and new markets and the rate of new product development and
commercialization.

Net sales increased 0.5% from $39.6 million to $39.8 million. The gain was
primarily due to increased sales in the Music Products Division. Music sales
increased 14.7% from $11.6 million to $13.3 million. This was primarily due to
aggressive release schedules from a number of the Music Products Division's new
proprietary labels. Computer products sales decreased by 5.4% from $28.0 million
to $26.5 million. The decrease was primarily due to a much smaller number of new
releases of hit products.

Gross profit decreased 15.6% or $792,000 from $5.1 million to $4.3 million. As a
percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased from 12.8% during the three
month period ending June 30, 1996 to 10.7% for the same period in 1997. Overall
gross margin declined due to a lower gross margin in the Company's music
business caused in part by a loss incurred in connection with the settlement of
litigation with one of the Company's vendors in which the Company agreed to
accept partial payment of certain amounts due to it and wrote off the balance
due to concerns about collectability of the balance with certain music vendors
who have gone out of business. Gross margins from the Computer Products
Division's net sales were $2.6 million or 9.7% as a percentage of net sales
during the three month period in 1997 compared with $2.7 million or 9.7% as a
percentage of net sales in the same period in 1996. Gross margins from music
sales were $1.8 million or 13.7% of music net sales for the three month period
in 1997 compared with $2.4 million or 20.4% of music net sales for the same
period in 1996.

Selling and promotion expense increased from $1.2 million during the three month
period in 1996 to $1.3 million during the same period in 1997 and increased as a
percentage of net sales from 3.0% during the three month period in 1996 to 3.2%
during the same period in 1997. The higher level of expense was primarily due to
expenses in Net Radio where none existed last year and higher levels of sale
expense related to expansion of the proprietary music for the Music Division.

Distribution and warehousing expense increased from $515,000 in the three month
period for 1996 to $663,000 in the same period in 1997. As a percentage of net
sales it increased from 1.3% of net sales to 1.7% of net sales. The increased
expense was related to increased costs associated with a decrease in the average
order size.

General and Administration expenses increased from $2.5 million during the three
month period in 1996 to $3.2 million during the same period in 1997 in the
current period and increased as a percentage of net sales from 6.3% during the
three month period in 1996 to 7.9% during the same period in 1997. This
increased expense was primarily due to expenses in the newly acquired Net Radio
where none existed last year and costs associated with increased staffing to
support anticipated growth. Amortization of intangible assets represents the
Company's amortization of its investment in Velvel Musical Products LLC. In
November 1996, the Company acquired an interest in Velvel Music Products in
exchange for distribution rights with respect to Velvel products. The Company is
amortizing its investment in the Velvel distribution rights over the five year
life of the distribution agreement.

Interest expense increased from $463,000 for the three month period in 1996 to
$559,000 for the three month period in 1997. This increase resulted from
substantially higher borrowing to support the Company's higher inventory levels
resulting from its growth in sales.

A net loss of $1.1 million resulted for the three month period in 1997 compared
with net earnings of $201,000 in the same three month period in 1996. This loss
was the result of reduced gross profits and increased operating expenses as
described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically financed its working capital needs through bank
borrowings. The level of borrowings has historically fluctuated significantly
during the year. At June 30, 1997, the Company had net accounts receivable of
$41.3 million and inventory of $18.2 million. These assets are primarily
financed by accounts payable of $39.1 million and bank borrowings of $24.8
million.

The Company has a revolving line of credit with Congress Financial Corporation.
The credit facility has a maximum borrowing limit of $45.0 million and is
secured by substantially all the Company's assets. The available amount
fluctuates based on an asset borrowing base.

The Company had a net loss of $1.1 million during this period. The Company
financed its operations in part by using cash of $3.8 million from operating
activities. Accounts receivable decreased by $5.9 million and inventories
increased by $1.3 million during the period. These changes were offset partially
by a $7.6 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Investing
activities used $249,000 of cash, including $245,000 for the purchase of
furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements. The Company generated net cash
of $3.5 million in financing activities primarily through proceeds of net bank
borrowings of $4.0 million during the period offset against payments of $536,000
on long-term debt. Cash at the end of the period was reduced by $593,000.

The Company anticipates it will utilize its credit facility during the next
twelve months to meet seasonal working capital needs. The Company believes that
the funds available under its current credit facility together with cash flow
from operations will be adequate to fund its working capital needs over the next
twelve months.
