                                AUDITORS' REPORT


TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
VIDEO VIEW GROUP


We have  audited the combined  balance  sheet of Video View Group as at December
31,  1996 and  December  31,  1995 and the  combined  statements  of income  and
retained  earnings  and cash  flow for the years  then  ended.  These  financial
statements  are the  responsibility  of the Video View Group's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining,  on a test basis,  evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit also includes  assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion,  these  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects, the combined financial position of the Video View Group as at December
31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations and the changes
in its financial  position for the years then ended in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

1.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       Nature of business

       Video View Ltd. and the related companies TDG Holdings Ltd., TMH Holdings
       Ltd.,  TGH Holdings  Ltd., and TDH Holdings Ltd. (the "Video View Group")
       own and operate retail video stores in Alberta, Canada.

       Combined financial statements

       The  accompanying  financial  statements  present the combined  financial
       position,  results of operations  and cash flows of the Video View Group.
       All intercompany  accounts and transactions  have been eliminated.  These
       combined financial statements have been prepared for information purposes
       on the subsequent sale of the Video View Group (see Note 8).

       Inventory

       Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

       Capital assets

       Capital assets are recorded at cost less  accumulated  amortization.  The
       following rates of amortization,  using the declining balance method, are
       used to  allocate  the cost of the assets,  less any  residual or salvage
       value, over their expected useful life:

                Buildings                                                     5%
                Equipment and fixtures                                       20%
                Video cassette machines                                      20%
                Video cassette rental movies  and games (1995; 40%)          50%
                Automotive                                                   30%
                Computers                                                    30%
                Computer software                                           100%

       Leasehold  improvements  are amortized on a straight-line  basis over the
       term of the lease plus one renewal period.

       Income taxes

       The Video View Group provided for taxes under the tax  allocation  basis,
       under which taxes are  provided for in the year  transactions  affect net
       income,  regardless of when such  transactions  are recognised for income
       tax purposes.  Deferred income taxes arise mainly as a result of claiming
       amortization  for income tax purposes in excess of that recorded in these
       financial statements.

4.     DUE TO SHAREHOLDERS

       The amount due to shareholders is non-interest bearing,  unsecured and is
       due on demand.  However,  the shareholders  have indicated that they will
       not  request  repayment  of this  amount  within  the next  fiscal  year.
       Consequently,  this amount has been classified as a non-current liability
       in the accompanying financial statements.

                         PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

                     PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)
                          YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 1996 AND
                        SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1996

                                  INTRODUCTION

In January 1997, the Company acquired the assets of Video Warehouse, Inc., a ten
store video  retail  chain of  Longview,  Washington,  and Video View,  Ltd.,  a
twenty-three  store  video  retail  store  chain  in  Canada  for  approximately
$7,643,000  in cash and the issuance of 75,000  shares of Class A Common  Stock.
The purchase method of accounting has been used to account for the acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma  financial  statements  reflect the  following:  (i) the
combination of the financial statements of the acquisitions;  (ii) an adjustment
to allocate the purchase price based upon the estimated fair value of the assets
acquired and the obligations  assumed;  (iii) a provision for income taxes as if
the combined  operations  had been taxed as a C corporation  for all the periods
presented (statement of income only).

The  unaudited  combined  pro forma  balance  sheet  shows  the  effect of Video
Warehouse,  Inc. and Video View,  Ltd.  acquisitions  as of October 31, 1996 and
were prepared as if the transaction had occurred as of such period end.

The unaudited pro forma  combined  statements of income for the year ended April
30,  1996 and the six  months  ended  October  31,  1996 give  effect to (i) the
acquisition of Video  Warehouse,  (ii) the acquisition of Video View,  Ltd., and
(iii) video stores  acquired from unrelated  sellers during the year ended April
30, 1996 (see Registrant's Registration No. 333-7929 on Form S-3 dated September
27, 1996),  treated as purchases for accounting purposes and were prepared as if
the transactions had occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods.

The historical  statements of income for acquisitions are presented for the year
ended April 30, 1996 and the six months ended October 31, 1996.

In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments necessary to present
fairly such pro forma financial statements have been made based on the terms and
structure of the transaction. The Company anticipates,  however, that changes in
the  composition  of the  assets  acquired  as of October  31,  1996 will not be
materially different as of the date of the transaction.  Therefore,  the Company
believes any related change in adjustments will not be material to the pro forma
financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma financial  statements are not necessarily  indicative of
the actual results had the acquisitions  occurred at the beginning of the fiscal
year ended April 30, 1996 and at the  beginning of the six months ended  October
31, 1996.

The unaudited pro forma financial  statements  should be read in connection with
the audited historical  financial  statements and notes thereto of Video Update,
Inc.  and Video View,  Ltd.  for the year ended April 30, 1996 and  December 31,
1996, respectively.
