NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND JUNE 30, 1997
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's December 31, 1996,
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included on Form 10-K (SEC
File Number 1-13290). Certain information and footnote disclosures which are
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC
rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The information
reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of Management, are necessary for
a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the
interim period set forth herein. All such adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature. The results for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending
December 31, 1997.
2. EQUITY INTEREST IN UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY

5. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding. Fully diluted net income (loss)
per share is not presented as it does not differ materially from primary net
income (loss) per share.
6. INCOME TAXES
Income taxes were computed using the effective tax rate estimated to be
applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and
evaluation by management.
7. LITIGATION SETTLEMENT
On May 22, 1997, the Company announced that it had agreed to pay
Century Entertainment Center, L.P. ("Century") approximately $2.0 million to
settle litigation relating to the Century City Spectrum Club which was closed in
July 1995. The settlement relates to a suit filed by Century City Spectrum
("CCS"), a subsidiary of the Company, against Century alleging breach of the
lease by the prior landlord. Century had acquired the rights under the lease in
connection with the bankruptcy of the prior landlord. Century filed a
cross-complaint against CCS for rent due and against the Company as a guarantor
of CCS's obligations under the lease. The cross-complaint had sought
approximately $3.2 million in rent due under the full term of the lease plus
attorney's fees and interest. The settlement will be made with quarterly
payments of $500,000, which began in May 1997 with the final payment due in
February 1998.
8. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
On June 23, 1997, the Company completed the sale of 2,105,263 shares
of its common stock to Millennium Entertainment Partners, L.P., ("MEP"). The
Company received $5.0 million cash, MEP's 9.9% Partnership interest in The
Reebok-Sports Club/NY Partnership, a $2.5 million note due from the Partnership
and MEP's rights to certain accrued management fees due from the Partnership in
exchange for the newly issued shares. The Company also signed definitive leases
with an affiliate of MEP to jointly develop Sports Clubs in Washington D.C. and
San Francisco, California on properties currently under development by an
affiliate of MEP. The Company has also signed a letter of intent to jointly
develop a Sports Club in Boston, Massachusetts on property currently under
development by an affiliate of MEP.
In July 1997, the Company acquired the assets of SportsTherapy
Systems, Inc. ("STS"), a physical therapy and rehab clinic located in Calabasas,
California for approximately $472,000 in cash plus the assumption of various
liabilities. STS will be merged into the Company's HealthFitness Organization of
America, Inc. ("HFA") subsidiary. In addition, the Company entered into an
employment agreement with the seller of STS pursuant to which the seller will
manage the operations of HFA. The acquisition will be accounted for as a
purchase. Accordingly, the operations of STS will be included in the Company's
statement of operations from the date of acquisition.
In August 1997, the Company acquired the Green Valley Athletic Club
("GVAC") located in Henderson, Nevada. The purchase price of approximately $6.7
million consisted of
6
<PAGE> 8
$5.0 million in cash and $1.7 million in shares of the Company's common stock.
The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the operations
of GVAC will be included in the Company's statement of operations from the date
of acquisition.
Pro forma financial data giving effect to the SportsTherapy Systems,
Inc. and Green Valley Athletic Club acquisitions is not presented as their
effect on the consolidated financial statements is not material.
9. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (FAS 128), in February 1997 which is effective for
both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company will
adopt FAS 128 in the fourth quarter of 1997. FAS 128 requires the presentation
of "Basic" earnings per share which represents income available to common
stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. A dual presentation of "Diluted" earnings per share will also be
required. The Diluted presentation is similar to the current presentation of
fully diluted earnings per share. FAS 128 requires restatement of all
prior-period earnings per share data presented. Management believes the adoption
of FAS 128 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position
or results of operations.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q. The Company's consolidated financial statements reflect the
operations of The Sports Clubs, The Spectrum Clubs and HFA. The Reebok-Sports
Club/NY was accounted for under the equity method of accounting until December
30, 1996, at which time the Company acquired a majority ownership position and
the operations of Reebok-Sports Club/NY were consolidated with and into the
Company. The Spectrum Club/Manhattan Beach is accounted for under the equity
method of accounting.
The comparability of the Company's operating results, financial condition
and capital requirements is impacted by the transaction described above and the
number of clubs which the Company operates. Seasonal factors have not had a
significant effect on the Company's operating results.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 to Three Months Ended June 30,
1996
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997, were $14.5 million,
compared to $9.4 million in 1996, an increase of $5.1 million or 55.3%. An
increase of $4.3 million resulted from revenue from Reebok Sports Club/NY, which
was consolidated into the Company following the acquisition of a controlling
interest in the Club on December 30, 1996. Revenue growth of $400,000 from the
remaining Clubs as well growth of $400,000 from HFA also contributed to the
overall increase.
7
<PAGE> 9
Direct operating expenses increased to $10.3 million in the three months
ended June 30, 1997, versus $5.9 million in 1996. The increase resulted
primarily from the consolidation of operating expenses at Reebok Sports Club/NY.
Direct operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 71.1% in 1997
compared to 62.7% in 1996 due to lower margins at Reebok Sports Club/NY. Newer
Clubs historically operate at lower margins until the membership base reaches a
mature level.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.5 million in the
three months ended June 30, 1997, versus $1.5 million in 1996. These costs
decreased as a percentage of revenue from 16.4% in 1996 to 10.5% in 1997. The
Company was managing Reebok Sports Club/NY in 1996 and therefore, the revenue
growth which resulted from consolidating this Club was not accompanied by an
increase in general and administrative expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $922,000 in the three months
ended June 30, 1997, versus $604,000 in 1996. The increase is due primarily to
the addition of depreciation and amortization at Reebok Sports Club/NY. Interest
expense was $797,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1997, versus $706,000 in
1996. Interest expense of $185,000 at Reebok Sports Club/NY was offset by
increased interest income due to more available cash for investment and lower
interest expense as indebtedness matured and was repaid.
Equity interest in net income of unconsolidated subsidiary was $164,000 in
the three months ended June 30, 1997 versus $159,000 in 1996. The 1996 and 1997
amounts are associated with the Spectrum Club/Manhattan Beach's operations and
the increase reflects the Company's share of the improved profitability at that
Club.
Litigation settlement costs were $2.0 million in the three months ended
June 30, 1997. There were no similar costs for the same period in 1996. The
Company has agreed to pay Century Entertainment Center, L.P. ("Century"),
approximately $2.0 million to settle litigation relating to the Century City
Spectrum Club which was closed in July 1995. The settlement will be made with
quarterly payments of $500,000 which began in May 1997 with the final payment
due in February 1998.
The Company's net loss before income taxes was $896,000 for the three
months ended June 1997. The Company's net income before income taxes and before
the settlement of the Century City litigation was $1.1 million in the three
months ended June 30, 1997 versus $767,000 in 1996. The Company's estimated
income tax rate is 38% for the three months ended June 30, 1997, and 41% for
1996, resulting in a net loss of $555,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1997, versus net income of $453,000 in 1996. The lower tax rate in 1997 results
from the reduction of valuation allowances on certain deferred income tax
assets.
Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 to Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997, were $28.6 million,
compared to $18.7 million in 1996, an increase of $9.9 million or 53.2%. An
increase of $8.7 million resulted from revenue from Reebok Sports Club/NY, which
was consolidated into the Company following the acquisition of a controlling
interest in the Club on December 30, 1996. Revenue growth of $600,000 from the
remaining Clubs as well as growth of $600,000 from HFA also contributed to the
overall increase.
8
<PAGE> 10
Direct operating expenses increased to $20.4 million in the six months
ended June 30, 1997, versus $11.8 million in 1996. The increase resulted
primarily from the addition of operating expenses at Reebok Sports Club/NY.
Direct operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 71.3% in 1997
compared to 63.3% in 1996 due to lower margins at Reebok Sports Club/NY. Newer
Clubs historically operate at lower margins until the membership base reaches a
mature level.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.1 million in the six
months ended June 1997, versus $3.0 million in 1996. The increase was due to the
consolidation of direct selling expenses incurred at Reebok Sports Club/NY.
These costs decreased as a percentage of revenue from 16.0% in 1996 to 10.8% in
1997. The Company was managing Reebok Sports Club/NY in 1996 and therefore, the
revenue growth which resulted from consolidating this Club was not accompanied
by an increase in general and administrative expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.8 million in the six months
ended June 30, 1997, versus $1.2 million in 1996. The increase is due primarily
to the consolidation of depreciation and amortization at Reebok Sports Club/NY.
Interest expense was $1.6 million in the six months ended June 1997, versus $1.4
million in 1996. Interest expense of $372,000 at Reebok Sports Club/NY was
offset by increased interest income due to more available cash for investment
and lower interest expenses as indebtedness matured.
Equity interest in net income of unconsolidated subsidiary was $339,000 in
the six months ended June 30, 1997 versus $250,000 in 1996. The 1996 and 1997
amounts are associated with the Spectrum Club/Manhattan Beach's operations and
the increase reflects the Company's share of the improved profitability at that
Club.
Litigation settlement costs were $2.0 million in the six months ended June
30, 1997. There were no similar costs for the same period in 1996.
The Company's net income before income taxes was $45,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997. The Company's net income before income taxes and
before the settlement of the Century City litigation was $2.1 million in the six
months ended June 30, 1997 versus $1.5 million in 1996. The Company's estimated
income tax rate is 38% for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and 41% for 1996,
resulting in a net income of $28,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997,
versus net income of $862,000 in 1996. The lower tax rate in 1997 results from
the reduction of valuation allowances on certain deferred income tax assets.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the year ended December 31, 1996, and the six months ended June 30,
1997, the Company generated $3.6 million and $1.7 million of cash from operating
activities. At June 30, 1997, the Company had a cash balance of $6.7 million of
which $619,000 is held by the Reebok-Sports Club/NY Partnership. The remaining
$6.1 million is available for general corporate purposes. The Company
anticipates its cash balance on hand plus cash generated from operations and the
amount available under the credit facility will be adequate to fund the
Company's current operating activities, debt service and recurring capital
expenditures for the next twelve months.

<PAGE> 11
In connection with the 1994 acquisition of The Sports Club/Irvine, MKDG
Partners agreed to pay the Company for each of the years ending December 31,
1994, 1995 and 1996, the lesser of approximately $1.0 million or the amount by
which The Sports Club/Irvine's earnings before depreciation and the Company's
administrative overhead relating to the Club for such year is less than
approximately $2.9 million. The Company has made a claim for approximately
$687,000 in 1997 relating to the 1996 shortfall.
In June 1997, the Company sold 2,105,263 shares of its common stock in
exchange for $5.0 million in cash and certain assets including a 9.9% ownership
interest in and a $2.5 million note receivable from the Reebok-Sports Club/NY
Partnership. The Company currently owns a 60.0% interest in the Reebok-Sports
Club/NY Partnership. At June 30, 1997, the Partnership owed $2.9 million under a
loan secured by equipment and owed $4.0 million to the Company in the form of
notes payable. (The $4.0 million note payable to the Company is eliminated when
presenting the Company's June 30, 1997 consolidated balance sheet.) The Reebok
Sports Club/NY achieved a positive cash flow in September 1995 and has improved
its operations since that date. The Club is expected to continue to improve its
operating results in the future as membership levels increase (although no
assurance as to such future increases can be given). The future cash flows of
the Partnership will first be used to satisfy the principal and interest
requirements of the equipment loan in the amount of $75,000 per month.
Additional cash flows will be used to pay a priority distribution, which is
considered to be rent expense in the consolidated financial statement, of $2.1
million in 1997 and $3.0 million per year thereafter to another partner. The
remaining future cash flows will be distributed to the Company to satisfy the
notes payable, accrued management fees and certain additional priority
distributions. At June 30, 1997, these amounts total $14.9 million. After these
amounts plus interest thereon are paid, the Company will be entitled to 60.0% of
future cash distributions.
The Company has agreed to pay Century Entertainment Center, L.P.
("Century"), approximately $2.0 million to settle litigation relating to the
Century City Spectrum Club which was closed in July 1995. The settlement will be
made with quarterly payments of $500,000 which began in May 1997 with the final
payment due in February 1998.
In July 1997, the Company acquired SportsTherapy Systems, Inc., a physical
therapy and rehab clinic located in Calabasas, California for approximately
$472,000 in cash plus the assumption of various liabilities. This purchase was
funded from cash balances on hand. In August 1997, the Company acquired the
Green Valley Athletic Club, a health and fitness club located in Henderson,
Nevada. This acquisition was completed with approximately $4.3 million of cash,
equipment financing of $700,000 and the issuance of $1.7 million of shares of
the Company's common stock.
The Company's long-term capital needs are to provide funds for the
retirement of existing long-term debt and to secure funds for the development of
new clubs and the acquisition of existing clubs. The Company intends to continue
its efforts to pursue joint venture arrangements with strategic partners as a
means of financing the development of new clubs or enter into lease agreements
for such facilities. The Company has secured a $5.0 million credit facility with
a commercial bank. The credit facility is available to provide funds for the
development and acquisition of new clubs and for general corporate purposes. The
Company has also had discussions with several financial institutions regarding
the possibility of securing a credit facility that would be used (i) to retire
existing debt (ii) for the acquisition of existing or development of new clubs
and (iii) to provide working capital.

In the first quarter of 1996, the Company began development of a 57,000
square foot Spectrum Club in Valencia, California. This Club opened on July 1,
1997. The Company owns and manages the Club operations in a building that is
leased from The Newhall Land and Farming Company. The Company anticipates that
it will be able to fund its remaining portion of this development, estimated to
be approximately $300,000, from operating cash flows. In August 1996, the
Company announced plans to develop a Sports Club in Houston, Texas. The
Company's portion of development costs for this Club is estimated to be $3.6
million and will be funded starting in early 1998. In 1997, the Company
announced its intent to develop Sports Clubs in Washington D.C., San Francisco,
California and Boston, Massachusetts. These projects are scheduled to begin
construction in early 1998. The Company's portion of the development costs for
these Clubs is preliminarily estimated to be approximately $15.0 million.
Operating cash flows and the $5.0 million revolving credit facility will be
utilized to finance a portion of the Company's cost of these four developments.
The Company will need to secure additional financing to complete these
developments. Preliminary discussions have been held with several institutions
regarding the possibility of securing additional long-term debt. At this time
the Company does not yet have a formal commitment to provide this financing.
Other than as described above and for normal replacement of fitness
equipment and remodeling of clubs, the Company has no commitments for capital
expenditures. Equipment financing has generally been available under capital
lease arrangements. In 1996, the Company invested approximately $1.6 million in
capital expenditures other than those related to new club development. In the
six months ended June 30, 1997, capital expenditures, other than those related
to new club development, were $1.1 million. In 1996, the Company secured a
$500,000 lease facility to be used to finance capital expenditures. As of June
30, 1997, the Company had utilized approximately $305,000 of this facility. The
remaining $200,000 will be used for equipment at the Spectrum Club in Valencia.
In 1997, the Company secured an additional $500,000 lease facility to be used to
finance capital expenditures. As of June 30, 1997, no amounts had been utilized
under this facility. While capital expenditures may fluctuate from time to time,
generally the Company expects to spend approximately 4% of revenues on facility
and equipment upgrades and replacements. Expansion of the Company's operations
beyond existing clubs will require expenditures above this level.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (FAS 128), in February 1997 which is effective for
both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company will
adopt FAS 128 in the fourth quarter of 1997. FAS 128 requires the presentation
of "Basic" earnings per share which represents income available to common
stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. A dual presentation of "Diluted" earnings per share will also be
required. The Diluted presentation is similar to the current presentation of
fully diluted earnings per share. FAS 128 requires restatement of all
prior-period earnings per share data presented. Management believes the adoption
of FAS 128 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position
or results of operations.
