                        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED 
                            FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying interim consolidated condensed financial statements 
include the accounts of Metromedia International Group, Inc. ("MMG" or the 
"Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Metromedia International 
Telecommunications, Inc. ("MITI" or the "Communications Group") and Snapper 
Inc. ("Snapper") as of November 1, 1996. All significant intercompany 
transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

    In addition, as of April 1, 1997, for financial statement reporting 
purposes, the Company no longer qualified to treat its investment in RDM 
Sports Group, Inc. ("RDM") as a discontinued operation and the Company has 
included in its results of continuing operations the Company's share of the 
earnings and losses of RDM. On August 29, 1997, RDM filed a voluntary 
bankruptcy petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in Atlanta, 
Georgia. On August 28, 1997, an involuntary bankruptcy petition was filed 
against a subsidiary of RDM in Federal bankruptcy court in Montgomery, 
Alabama (see note 6).

    On July 10, 1997, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of 
its entertainment assets (the "Entertainment Group Sale") (see note 2). The 
transaction has been recorded as a discontinuance of a business segment, and; 
accordingly the consolidated condensed balance sheet at December 31, 1996 
reflect the net assets of the discontinued segment. The consolidated 
condensed statements of operations reflect the results of operations through 
May 2, 1997, the date of the execution of the definitive agreement relating 
to the Entertainment Group Sale, of the discontinued segment. The Company 
recorded a gain on the sale of the discontinued segment on July 10, 1997 (see 
note 2).

    In addition, the Company has adopted a plan to dispose of Landmark 
Theatre Group ("Landmark") and the Company is currently negotiating the terms 
of an agreement with a third party (see note 12). Accordingly, Landmark has 
been recorded as a discontinuance of a business segment, and the consolidated 
condensed balance sheets at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 reflect 
the net assets of the discontinued segment. The consolidated statements of 
operations reflect the results of operations through September 30, 1997.

    Investments in other companies, including the Communications Group's 
joint ventures ("Joint Ventures") which are not majority owned, or in which 
the Company does not have control but exercises significant influence, are 
accounted for using the equity method. The Company reflects its net 
investments in Joint Ventures under the caption "Investments in and advances 
to Joint Ventures." The Company accounts for its equity in earnings (losses) 
of the Joint Ventures on a three-month lag.

    Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial 
statements to conform to the September 30, 1997 presentation.

    The total allowance for doubtful accounts at September 30, 1997 and 
December 31, 1996 was $3.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Interest

                        FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

    MMG is a holding company, and accordingly, does not generate cash flows. 
The Communications Group is dependent on MMG for significant capital 
infusions to fund its operations, its commitments to make capital 
contributions and loans to its Joint Ventures and any acquisitions. Such 
funding requirements are based on the anticipated funding needs of its Joint 
Ventures and certain acquisitions committed to by the Company. Future capital 
requirements of the Communications Group, including future acquisitions, will 
depend on available funding from the Company and on the ability of the 
Communications Group's Joint Ventures to generate positive cash flows. In 
addition, Snapper is restricted under covenants contained in its credit 
agreement from making dividend payments or advances to MMG. In addition, 
periodically, the Company has been required to fund the short-term working 
capital needs of Snapper.

    The Communications Group's businesses are capital intensive and require 
the investment of significant amounts of capital in order to construct and 
develop operational systems and market its services. As a result, the Company 
will require in addition to its cash on hand and the proceeds from the 
anticipated sale of Landmark, additional financing in order to satisfy its 
on-going working capital and debt service requirements and to achieve its 
long-term business strategies. Such additional capital may be provided 
through the public or private sale of equity or debt securities. No assurance 
can be given that additional financing will be available to the Company on 
acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate additional funds are not available, 
the Company may be required to curtail significantly its long term business 
objectives and the Company's results from operations may be materially and 
adversely affected.

    Management believes that its long term liquidity needs will be satisfied 
through a combination of the Company's successful implementation and 
execution of its growth strategy to become a global communications and media 
company and the Communications Group's Joint Ventures achieving positive 
operating results and cash flows through revenue and subscriber growth and 
control of operating expenses.

    The accompanying interim consolidated condensed financial statements have 
been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote 
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance 
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted 
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that 
the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not 
misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 
consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the 
Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K/A Amendment No. 1 (the "1996 Form 
10-K"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of 
normal recurring adjustments and adjustments to reflect the Entertainment 
Group Sale (as described in note 2) and sale of Landmark (as described in 
note 12) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as 
of September 30, 1997, the results of its operations and its cash flows for 
the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, 
have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not 
necessarily indicative of the results which may be realized for the full year.

2. THE ENTERTAINMENT GROUP SALE

    On July 10, 1997, the Company sold all of the outstanding shares of common
stock of Orion Pictures Corporation ("Orion") and thereby substantially all of 
the assets of its entertainment group (the "Entertainment Group"), consisting 
of Orion, Goldwyn Entertainment Company and Motion Picture Corporation of 
America (and their respective subsidiaries) which owned a feature film and 
television library of over 2,200 titles to P&F Acquisition Corp., the parent 
company of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. for a gross consideration of 
$573.0 million. The Company used $296.4 million of the proceeds from 
the Entertainment Group Sale to repay amounts outstanding under the 
Entertainment Group's credit facilities and certain other indebtedness of 
the Entertainment Group. As a result of the Entertainment Group Sale, the 
Company has narrowed its strategic focus to the global communications and 
media businesses of the Communications Group. The Entertainment Group's 
Landmark Theatre Group was not included in the Entertainment Group Sale and 
the Company intends to dispose of Landmark and is currently negotiating the 
terms of an agreement with a third party (see note 12).

    The net gain on sale reflected in the consolidated condensed statement of 
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 is as

    The Entertainment Group's revenues for the three months ended September 
30, 1996 were $25.1 million, for the four months ended April 30, 1997 were 
$41.7 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were $88.0 
million. The Entertainment Group's revenues for the period May 2, 1997 to 
July 10, 1997 were $29.3 million and the loss from operations was $6.4 
million.

    Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three months ended 
September 30, 1997 and 1996 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
and 1996 include income taxes (benefits) of ($6.6) million, $323,000 ($6.4)

3. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    On September 16, 1997, the Company completed a public offering of 4.14 
million shares of 7 1/4% cumulative convertible preferred stock ("Preferred 
Stock") with a liquidation preference of $50 per share, generating net 
proceeds of approximately $199.4 million. Dividends on the Preferred Stock 
are cumulative from the date of issuance and payable quarterly, in arrears, 
commencing on December 15, 1997. The Company may make any payments due on the 
Preferred Stock, including dividend payments and redemptions (i) in cash; 
(ii) issuance of the Company's common stock or (iii) through a combination 
thereof. The Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder at 
any time, unless previously redeemed, into the Company's common stock, at a 
conversion price of $15.00 per share (equivalent to a conversion rate of 3 
1/3 shares of common stock for each share of Preferred Stock), subject to 
adjustment under certain conditions.

                        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED 
                        FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

    The Preferred Stock is redeemable by the Company at any time on or after 
September 15, 2000, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, initially
at a price of $52.5375 and thereafter at prices declining to $50.00 per share 
on or after September 15, 2007, plus in each case all accrued and unpaid 
dividends to the redemption date. Upon any Change of Control (as defined in 
the certificate of designation of the Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of 
Designation")), each holder of Preferred Stock shall, in the event that the 
Market Value at such time is less than the conversion price of $15.00, have a 
one-time option to convert the Preferred Stock into the Company's common stock 
at a conversion price equal to the greater of (i) the Market Value as of the 
Change of Control Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) and 
(ii) $8.00. In lieu of issuing shares of the Company's common stock, the 
Company may, at its option, make a cash payment equal to the Market Value 
of the Company's common stock otherwise issuable.

    In connection with the Entertainment Group Sale, 256,504 shares of 
restricted common stock previously issued to certain employees of a 
subsidiary of the Entertainment Group became fully vested. The cost of $2.3 
million associated with the vesting of the restricted common stock was 
included as a reduction to the Entertainment Group Sale gain.

4. LONG TERM DEBT

    In connection with the Entertainment Group Sale, the Company repaid all 
of its outstanding debentures. During August 1997, the Company 
repaid its 9 1/2% Subordinated Debentures, 10% Subordinated Debentures 
and 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures. In connection with the 
repayment of its outstanding debentures, the Company expensed certain 
unamortized discounts associated with the debentures and recognized an 
extraordinary loss of $13.6 million on the extinguishment of the debt.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

    Primary earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by 
the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares 
outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares include shares issuable 
upon the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method 
when dilutive. Computations of common equivalent shares are based upon 
average prices during each period.

    Fully diluted earnings per share are computed using such average shares 
adjusted for any additional shares which would result from using end-of-year 
prices in the above computations, plus for 1996 the additional shares that 
would result from the conversion of the Company's 6 1/2% Convertible 
Subordinated Debentures (the "6 1/2% Debentures") and for 1997 the additional 
shares that would result from the conversion of the Company's 7 1/4% Cumulative 
Convertible Preferred Stock. Net income (loss) is adjusted by interest (net 
of income taxes) on the 6 1/2% Debentures in 1996 and Preferred Stock 
dividends in 1997. The computation of fully diluted earnings per share is 
used only when it results in an earnings per share number which is lower 
than primary earnings per share.

    The primary loss per share amounts for the three and nine month periods 
ended September 30, 1996 have been restated to reflect the Entertainment 
Group and Landmark as a discontinued operation.

6. INVESTMENT IN RDM

    In connection with the acquisition of The Actava Group on November 1, 
1995, RDM was classified as an asset held for sale and the Company excluded 
its equity in earnings and losses of RDM from its results of operations. At 
November 1, 1995, the Company recorded its investment in RDM to reflect the 
anticipated proceeds from its sale. During 1996, the Company reduced the 
carrying value of its investment in RDM to its then estimated net realizable 
value of $31.2 million.

    On April 1, 1997, for financial statement reporting purposes, the Company 
no longer qualified to treat its investment in RDM as a discontinued 
operation. For the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company recorded in 
its results of operations a reduction in the carrying value of its investment 
in RDM of $18.0 million and has recorded its share of the expected net loss 
of RDM of $8.2 million.

    On June 20, 1997, RDM entered into a $100.0 million revolving and term 
credit facility (the "RDM Facility"). The RDM Facility is guaranteed by a 
letter of credit in the amount of $15.0 million in favor of the lenders 
thereunder ( the "Lenders"), which was obtained by Metromedia Company, an 
affiliate of the Company ("Metromedia"), and cannot be drawn until five days 
after a payment default and fifteen days after Non-Payment Default (as 
defined under the RDM Facility). In consideration of providing the letters of 
credit, Metromedia was granted warrants to purchase 3 million shares of RDM 
common stock (approximately 5% of RDM) ("RDM Warrants") at an exercise price 
of $.50 per share. The RDM Warrants have a ten year term and are exercisable 
beginning September 19, 1997. On July 10, 1997, the Company's Board of 
Directors elected to substitute its letter of credit for Metromedia's letter 
of credit and the RDM Warrants were assigned to the Company.

    On August 29, 1997, RDM filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition under 
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in Atlanta Georgia. On August 28, 1997, an 
involuntary bankruptcy petition was filed against a subsidiary of RDM in 
Federal bankruptcy court in Montgomery, Alabama. RDM is currently a 
debtor-in-possession credit. As a result the Lenders may immediately draw the 
entire amount of the $15.0 million letter of credit established by the 
Company, but to date have not done so. Accordingly, the Company has recorded 
in its results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1997 a 
further reduction in the carrying value of RDM of $4.9 million and as 
required under the equity method of accounting a loss of $15.0 million on the 
letter of credit guarantee.

    As of September 30, 1997, the Company owned approximately 39% of the 
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of RDM (the "RDM Common Stock") 
based on approximately 49,507,000 shares of RDM Common Stock outstanding at 
August 5, 1997.

    The latest published summarized unaudited condensed statements of 
operations information for the six months ended June 29, 1997 and balance 
sheet information as of June 29, 1997 for RDM is shown below (in thousands):

7. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO JOINT VENTURES

    The Communications Group has recorded its investments in less than 
majority-owned Joint Ventures at cost, net of its equity in earnings or 
losses. Advances to the Joint Ventures under the line of credit agreements 
are reflected based on amounts recoverable under the credit agreement, plus 
accrued interest.

    Advances are made to Joint Ventures in the form of cash, for working 
capital purposes and for payment of expenses or capital expenditures, or in 
the form of equipment purchased on behalf of the Joint Ventures. Interest 
rates charged to the Joint Ventures range from prime rate to prime rate plus 
6%. The credit agreements generally provide for the payment of principal and 
interest from 90% of the Joint Ventures' available cash flow, as defined, 
prior to any substantial distributions of dividends to the Joint Venture 
partners. The Communications Group has entered into credit agreements with 
its Joint Ventures to provide up to $92.1 million in funding of which $13.1 
million remains available at September 30, 1997. The Communications Group 
funding commitments are contingent on its approval of the Joint Ventures' 
business plans.

    In February, 1997, Metromedia Asia Corporation ("MAC") a subsidiary of 
the Company with telephony interests in the PRC, acquired AAT pursuant to a 
Business Combination Agreement (the "BCA") in which MAC and AAT agreed to 
combine their businesses and operations. Pursuant to the BCA, each AAT 
shareholder and warrant holder exchanged (i) one share of AAT common stock 
(the "AAT Common Stock") for one share of MAC Common Stock, par value $.01 
per share ("MAC Common Stock"), (ii) one warrant to acquire one share of AAT 
Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share for one warrant to 
acquire one share of MAC Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share 
and (iii) one warrant to acquire one share of AAT Common Stock at an exercise 
price of $6.00 per share for one warrant to acquire one share of MAC Common 
Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. AAT is engaged in the 
development and construction of communication services in the PRC. AAT, 
through a joint venture, has a contract with one of the PRC's two major 
providers of telephony services to provide telecommunications services in the 
Sichuan Province and the City of Ningbo of the PRC. The transaction was 
accounted for as a purchase, with MAC as the acquiring entity.

    As a condition to the closing of the BCA, the Communications Group 
purchased from MAC, for an aggregate purchase price of $10.0 million, 
3,000,000 shares of MAC Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share ( the 
"MAC Class A Common Stock") and warrants to purchase an additional 1,250,000 
shares of MAC Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. 
Shares of MAC Class A Common Stock are identical to shares of MAC Common 
Stock except that they are entitled, when owned by the Communications Group, 
to three votes per share on all matters voted upon by MAC's stockholders and 
to vote as a separate class to elect six of the ten members to MAC's Board of 
Directors. The securities received by the Communications Group are not 
registered under the Securities Act, but have certain demand and piggyback 
registration rights as provided in the stock purchase agreement. As a result 
of the transaction the Communications Group owns 56.52% of MAC's outstanding 
common stock with 79% voting rights. Subsequently, additional shares were 
purchased from a minority shareholder, increasing the ownership percentage to 
58.7% with 81% voting rights.

    The purchase price of the AAT transaction was determined to be $86.0 
million. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net 
tangible assets acquired was $69.0 million. This has been recorded as 
goodwill and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. The 
amortization of such goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
was approximately $1.6 million.

subsequent to the acquisition of AAT of $54.5 million was recorded as an 
increase to paid-in surplus of $36.0 million in the consolidated condensed 
statement of stockholders' equity.

    The Communications Group has signed definitive agreements to purchase 70% 
and 85% respectively, of joint ventures operating radio stations in Berlin, 
Germany and Prague, Czech Republic.

through its 56% ownership interest in Protocall Ventures. In October 1997, 
Protocall completed a transaction increasing the the Communication Group's 
ownership percentage in Protocall's Spanish Joint Ventures from 6%-16% to 
17%-48%.

9. SNAPPER

    In connection with the acquisition of The Actava Group on November 1, 
1995, Snapper was classified as an asset held for sale. Subsequently, the 
Company announced its intention not to continue to pursue its previously 
adopted plan to dispose of Snapper and to actively manage Snapper. As of 
November 1, 1996, the Company has consolidated Snapper into its results of 
operations.

    The results of Snapper for the period of January 1, 1996 through 
September 30, 1996, which were excluded from the accompanying consolidated 
condensed statements of operations, are as follows (in thousands):


             Net sales...............................   $116,630
             Operating expense.......................    135,492
                                                        --------

    Included in the Snapper's results of operations is the repurchase of 
inventories and to a lesser extent purchasing of the accounts receivable of 
distributors it has terminated in the implementation of its dealer-direct 
program. The purchases of inventories are accounted for by reducing sales for 
the amount credited to accounts receivable from the terminated distributions. 
Included in Snapper's results of operations for the nine months ended September 
30, 1996 are the effects of commitments to repurchase inventories and 
accounts receivable of $12.8 million.

                    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

    On April 30, 1997, Snapper closed a $10.0 million working capital 
facility ("Working Capital Facility") with AmSouth Bank of Alabama 
("AmSouth"); which amended Snapper's existing $55.0 million facility. The 
Working Capital Facility (i) gives AmSouth a PARI PASSU collateral interest 
in all of Snapper's assets (including rights under a Make-Whole and Pledge 
Agreement made by Metromedia in favor of AmSouth in connection with Snapper's 
revolving credit facility (the "Snapper Revolver")), (ii) accrues interest on 
borrowings at AmSouth's floating prime rate (same borrowing rate as the 
Snapper Revolver), and (iii) becomes due and payable on October 1, 1997. As 
additional consideration for AmSouth making this new facility available, 
Snapper provided AmSouth the joint and several guarantees of Messrs. Kluge 
and Subotnick, Chairman of the Board of MMG and Vice Chairman, President and 
Chief Executive Officer of MMG, respectively, on the Working Capital 
Facility. On October 1, 1997, the Company repaid the $10.0 million Working 
Capital Facility. On November 12, 1997, Snapper amended and restated the Snapper
Credit Agreement to increase the amount of the revolving line 
of credit from $55.0 million to $80.0 million. Interest on the Snapper 
Revolver bears interest at an applicable margin above the prime rate (up to 
15%) or a LIBOR rate (up to 4.0%). The Snapper Revolver matures on January 1, 
2000. The Snapper Revolver continues to be guaranteed by the Company and 
Messrs. Kluge and Subotnick have agreed to guarantee $10.0 million of the 
Snapper Revolver. The Snapper Credit Agreement, as amended, continues to 
contain certain financial covenants regarding maintaining minimum tangible 
net worth and satisfying certian quarterly cash flow requirements.

    As of September 30, 1997, Snapper was in compliance with the financial 
covenants under the Snapper Revolver and Working Capital Facility.

10. INCOME TAXES

    In connection with the Entertainment Group Sale, the Company has utilized 
its net operating loss carryforwards. In addition, the remaining net 
operating loss carryforwards attributable to the Entertainment Group are no 
longer available to the Company. At September 30, 1997, the Company had 
available net operating loss carryforwards, capital loss carryforwards, and 
unused minimum tax credits of approximately $166.0 million, $16.6 million and 
$15.3 million, respectively.

11. STOCK OPTION PLANS

    On March 26, 1997, the Board of Directors approved the cancellation and 
reissuance of all stock options previously granted pursuant to the 1996 
Metromedia International Group, Inc. Incentive Stock Plan (the "MMG Plan") at 
an exercise price of $9.31, the fair market value of MMG common stock (the 
"Common Stock") at such date.

    In addition, on March 26, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the 
grant of approximately 1,900,000 stock options at an exercise price of $9.31 
under the MMG Plan.

    On April 18, 1997, two officers of the Company were granted stock 
options, not pursuant to any plan, to purchase 1,000,000 shares each of 
Common Stock at a purchase price of $7.44 per share, the fair market value of 
the Common Stock at such date. The stock options vest and become fully 
exercisable four years from the date of grant.

    The MMG Plan provides that upon a sale of "substantially all" of the 
Company's assets, all unvested outstanding options to acquire the Common 
Stock under such plan would vest and become immediately exerciseable. In 
connection with the Entertainment Group Sale, the Company's Compensation 
Committee determined that the Entertainment Group Sale constituted a sale of 
"substantially all" of the Company's assets for purposes of the MMG Plan, 
thereby accelerating the vesting of all options outstanding under such plan. 
As of September 30, 1997, 2,329,489 options had been issued to the directors, 
officers and certain employees of the Company, Landmark and the 
Communications Group, and remain outstanding under the MMG Plan and 1,486,932 
of such options had not vested. All such options are exercisable at a price 
equal to $9.31 per share. All of the directors of the Company have agreed to 
waive the accelerated vesting of their options and the Company is in the 
process of obtaining waivers from the remaining officers and employees of the 
Company and Communications Group.

    Landmark's revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and for 
the period July 2, 1996 (date of acquisition of Landmark) to September 30, 
1996 were $14.3 million and $14.9 million, respectively, and for the nine 
months September 30, 1997 were $43.1 million. Income (loss) from operations 
for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 include income 
taxes of $401,000 and $410,000, respectively.

13. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" 
("SFAS 128") which supersedes APB Opinion 15, "Earnings per Share". SFAS 128 
specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for 
earnings per share ("EPS") for entities with publicly held common stock. SFAS 
128 replaces primary EPS and fully diluted EPS with basic EPS and diluted 
EPS, respectively. SFAS 128, effective December 31, 1997, is not expected to 
have a material impact on the Company's reporting of earnings per share. 
Earlier adoption of SFAS 128 is not permitted. After the effective date, the 
Company's prior-period EPS data will be restated to conform with the 
provisions of SFAS 128.

14. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

    The Company is involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings and 
while the results of any litigation or regulatory issue contain an element of 
uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of any known, pending or 
threatened legal proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company's 
consolidated financial position.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's 
consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes thereto.

GENERAL

    On July 10, 1997, the Company completed the Entertainment Group Sale, and 
the Company has adopted a plan to dispose of Landmark and is currently 
negotiating the terms of an agreement with a third party (see notes 2 and 12 
of the notes to consolidated condensed financial statements, respectively). 
The transactions have been recorded as the discontinuance of business segments
and, accordingly the consolidated balance sheets reflect the net assets of 
the discontinued segment. In addition, the consolidated statements of 
operations reflect the results of operations as discontinued segments.

    The continuing business activities of the Company consist of two business 
segments: the development and operation of communications businesses, which 
include wireless cable television, paging services, radio broadcasting and 
various types of telephony services; and the manufacture of lawn and garden 
products through Snapper.

    On November 1, 1995, Orion, MITI, the Company and MCEG Sterling 
Incorporated ("Sterling") consummated the November 1 Merger. In connection 
with the November 1 Merger, the Company changed its name from "The Actava 
Group Inc." to "Metromedia International Group, Inc."

    For accounting purposes only, Orion and MITI have been deemed to be the 
joint acquirers of Actava and Sterling. The acquisition of Actava and 
Sterling has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition. As a result of the 
reverse acquisition, the historical financial statements of the Company for 
periods prior to the November 1 Merger are the combined financial statements 
of Orion and MITI, rather than Actava's.

    The operations of Actava and Sterling have been included in the 
accompanying consolidated financial statements from November 1, 1995, the 
date of acquisition. During 1995, the Company had adopted a formal plan to 
dispose of Snapper and as a result, Snapper was classified as an asset held 
for sale and the results of its operations were not included in the 
consolidated results of operations of the Company from November 1, 1995 to 
October 31, 1996. Subsequently, the Company announced its intention not to 
continue to pursue its previously adopted plan to dispose of Snapper and to 
actively manage Snapper to maximize its long term value to the Company. The 
operations of Snapper are included in the accompanying consolidated financial 
statements as of November 1, 1996.

    In addition, as of April 1, 1997, for financial statement reporting 
purposes, the Company no longer qualifies to treat its investment in RDM as a 
discontinued operation and the Company has included in its results of 
operations the Company's share of the earnings and losses of RDM.  On August 
29, 1997, RDM filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition under chapter 11 of the 
Bankruptcy Code in Atlanta, Georgia and on August 28, 1997, an involuntary 
bankruptcy petition was filed against a subsidiary of RDM in Federal 
bankruptcy court in Montgomery, Alabama.

COMMUNICATIONS GROUP
    The Company, through the Communications Group, is the owner of various 
interests in Joint Ventures that are currently in operation or planning to 
commence operations in Eastern Europe, certain republics of the former Soviet 
Union, the PRC and other selected emerging markets.

    The Communications Group's Joint Ventures currently offer wireless cable 
television, AM/FM radio, paging, cellular telecommunications, international 
toll calling and trunked mobile radio. Joint ventures are principally entered 
into with governmental agencies or ministries under the existing laws of the 
respective countries.

    The Company's financial statements consolidate the accounts and results 
of operations of 9 of the Communications Group's 43 operating companies and 
Joint Ventures at September 30, 1997. Investments in other companies and 
joint ventures which are not majority owned, or in which the Communications 
Group does not have control, but exercises significant influence, have been 
accounted for using the equity method. Investments of the Communications 
Group or its consolidated subsidiaries over which significant influence is 
not exercised are carried under the cost method. See note 7 of the notes to 
consolidated condensed financial statements, "Investments in and Advances to 
Joint Ventures", for these Joint Ventures and their summary financial 
information.

    The following table summarizes the Communications Group's Joint Ventures 
and subsidiaries at September 30, 1997, as well as the amounts contributed, 
amounts loaned, net of repayments and total amounts invested in such Joint 
Ventures at September 30, 1997 (in thousands).

MMG CONSOLIDATED--RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended 
September 30, 1996.
 
    For the three months ended September 30, 1997 net income was $207.6 
million as compared to a net loss of $42.9 million for the comparable period 
in the prior year.
 
    The net income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 includes the 
gain on the Entertainment Group Sale of $246.3 million, an extraordinary loss 
of $13.6 million relating to the early extinguishment of the Company's 
debentures and equity losses and a further writedown of the investment in RDM 
amounting to $19.9 million.
 
    Operating loss increased to $20.8 million for the three months ended 
September 30, 1997 from $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 
1996. The increase in operating loss reflects the inclusion of Snapper's 
operating loss in 1997 of $8.5 million and increases in selling, general and 
administrative costs due principally to the continued growth of the 
Communications Group.
 
    Interest expense increased $243,000 to $4.4 million for the three months 
ended September 30, 1997, primarily due to the inclusion of interest 
associated with the Snapper credit facility partially offset by the reduction 
in the outstanding debt balance at corporate headquarters.
 
    Interest income increased $1.4 million to $4.6 million in 1997, 
principally from funds invested at corporate headquarters and increased 
interest income resulting from increased borrowings under the Communications 
Group's credit facilities with its Joint Ventures for their operating and 
investing cash requirements.
 
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended 
September 30, 1996.
 
    For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 net income was $112.4 
million as compared to a net loss of $80.9 million for the comparable period 
in the prior year.
 
    The net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 includes the 
gain on the Entertainment Group Sale of $246.3 million and losses from the 
discontinued operations of the Entertainment Group of $28.8 million, an 
extraordinary loss of $13.6 million relating to the early extinguishment of 
the Company's debentures and equity loss and a further writedown of the 
investment in RDM amounting to $45.1 million.
 
    Operating loss increased to $48.0 million for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1997 from $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1996. The increase in operating loss reflects the inclusion of Snapper's 
operating loss in 1997 of $10.0 million, and increases in selling, general 
and administrative costs due principally to the continued growth of the 
Communications Group.
 
    Interest expense increased $2.7 million to $16.5 million for the nine 
months ended September 30, 1997, primarily due to the inclusion of interest 
associated with the Snapper credit facility partially offset by the reduction 
in the outstanding debt balance at corporate headquarters.

    Interest income increased $4.0 million to $9.4 million in 1997, 
principally from funds invested at corporate headquarters and increased 
interest income resulting from increased borrowings under the Communications 
Group's credit facilities with its Joint Ventures for their operating and 
investing cash requirements.
 
THE COMMUNICATIONS GROUP--RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 1996.
 
REVENUES
 
    Revenues increased to $5.8 million for the three months ended September 
30, 1997 from $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The 
growth in revenue of the consolidated Joint Ventures has resulted primarily 
from an increase in radio operations in Hungary. Revenue from radio 
operations increased to $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 
1997 from $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996. Radio 
paging services generated revenues of $840,000 for the three months ended 
September 30, 1997 as compared to $900,000 for the three months ended 
September 30, 1996.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
    Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $3.6 million or 
38% for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the three 
months ended September 30, 1996. Approximately fifty-six percent of the 
increase relates to the expansion of operations in the PRC and the 
acquisition of AAT. The remaining increase relates to additional expenses 
associated with the increase in the number of Joint Ventures, principally the 
addition of Protocall Ventures , Ltd. ("Protocall") and the need for the 
Communications Group to support and assist the operations of the Joint 
Ventures, as well as additional staffing at the radio stations and radio 
paging operations.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE
 
    Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $2.6 million for the 
three months ended September 30, 1997 from $1.5 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996. The increase is primarily a result of the 
amortization of goodwill in connection with the acquisition of AAT.
 
EQUITY IN LOSSES OF JOINT VENTURES
 
    The Communications Group accounts for the majority of its Joint Ventures 
under the equity method of accounting since it generally does not exercise 
control of these ventures. Under the equity method of accounting, the 
Communications Group reflects the cost of its investments, adjusted for its 
share of the income or losses of the Joint Ventures, on its balance sheet and 
reflects generally only its proportionate share of income or losses of the 
Joint Ventures in its statement of operations. The Communications Group 
reports the operations of its unconsolidated Joint Ventures on a three month 
lag.
 
    The Communications Group recognized equity in losses of its Joint 
Ventures of approximately $5.4 million for the three months ended September 
30, 1997, including the equity in the losses of its Joint Ventures in PRC, as 
compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996.

                                      27

<PAGE>

    The losses recorded for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and the 
three months ended September 30, 1996 represent the Communications Group's 
equity in the losses of the Joint Ventures for the quarters ended June 30, 
1997 and 1996, respectively. Equity in the losses of the Joint Ventures by 
the Communications Group are generally reflected according to the level of 
ownership of the Joint Venture by the Communications Group until such Joint 
Venture's contributed capital has been fully depleted. Subsequently, the 
Communications Group recognizes the full amount of losses generated by the 
Joint Venture since the Communications Group is generally the sole funding 
source of the Joint Ventures.
 
    Revenues generated by unconsolidated Joint Ventures were $16.1 million 
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $19.6 million 
for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
 
MINORITY INTEREST
 
    Losses allocable to minority interests increased to $2.4 million for the 
three months ended September 30, 1997 from $59,000 for the three months ended 
September 30, 1996. The increase principally represents the inclusion of 
losses allocable to the minority shareholders of MAC.

FOREIGN CURRENCY
 
    The Communications Group's strategy is to minimize its foreign currency 
exposure risk. To the extent possible, in countries that have experienced 
high rates of inflation, the Communications Group bills and collects all 
revenues in United States ("U.S.") dollars or an equivalent local currency 
amount adjusted on a monthly basis for exchange rate fluctuations. The 
Communications Group's Joint Ventures are generally permitted to maintain 
U.S. dollar accounts to service their U.S. dollar denominated credit lines, 
thereby reducing foreign currency risk. As the Communications Group and its 
Joint Ventures expand their operations and become more dependent on local 
currency based transactions, the Communications Group expects that its 
foreign currency exposure will increase. The Communications Group does not 
hedge against foreign exchange rate risks at the current time and therefore 
could be subject in the future to any declines in exchange rates between the 
time a Joint Venture receives its funds in local currencies and the time it 
distributes such funds in U.S. dollars to the Communications Group.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended 
September 30, 1996.
 
REVENUES
 
    Revenues increased to $14.9 million in the nine months ended September 
30, 1997 from $10.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. 
Revenues of unconsolidated Joint Ventures for the nine months ended September 
30, 1997 and 1996 appear in note 7 to the notes to consolidated financial 
statements. This growth in revenue has resulted primarily from an increase in 
radio operations in Hungary and paging service operations in Romania. Revenue 
from radio operations for the first nine months of 1997 was $9.9 million as 
compared to $6.4 million in the first nine months of 1996. Radio paging 
services generated revenues of $2.3 for the first nine months of 1997 and the 
first nine months of 1996.

                                      28
<PAGE> 

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE
 
    Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $13.9 million or 
53% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the nine 
months ended September 30, 1996. Approximately forty-three percent of the 
increase relates to the expansion of operations in the PRC and the 
acquisition of AAT. The increase relates principally to the hiring of 
additional staff and expenses associated with the increase in the number 
Joint Ventures and the need for the Communications Group to support and 
assist the operations of the Joint Ventures, and additional staffing at the 
radio station and radio paging operations.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE
 
    Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $6.9 million for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $4.6 for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1996. The increase is primarily a result of the amortization of 
goodwill in connection with the acquisition of AAT.
 
EQUITY IN LOSSES OF JOINT VENTURES
 
    The Communications Group recognized equity in losses of its Joint 
Ventures of approximately $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 
30, 1997, including equity in the losses of its Joint Ventures in PRC, as 
compared to $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
 
    Revenues generated by unconsolidated Joint Ventures were $45.2 million 
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $34.3 million for 
the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
 
MINORITY INTEREST
 
    Losses allocable to minority interests increased to $5.1 million for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $80,000 for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1996. The increase principally represents the inclusion of 
losses allocable to the minority shareholders of MAC.
 
SUBSCRIBER GROWTH
 
    Many of the Joint Ventures are in early stages of development and 
consequently ordinarily generate operating losses in the first years of 
operation. The Communications Group believes that subscriber growth is an 
appropriate indicator to evaluate the progress of the subscriber based 
businesses. The following table presents the aggregate telephony, paging and 
cable TV Joint Ventures subscriber growth:

SNAPPER--RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997
 
REVENUES
 
    Snapper's 1997 period sales were $30.8 million. Snapper continued to 
implement its program to sell products directly to dealers. In implementing 
this program to restructure its distribution network, Snapper repurchased 
certain distributor inventory which resulted in sales reductions of $17.3 
million. Sales of lawn and garden equipment contributed the majority of the 
revenues during the period. Sales were much lower than anticipated due to 
lower distributor sales than expected due to the repurchase of distributor 
inventory.
 
    Gross profit during the period was $9.3 million. These low gross profit 
results were caused by lower distributor sales than anticipated due to the 
distributor repurchases.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

                                      31
<PAGE> 

    Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16.4 million for the 
period. In addition to normal selling, general and administrative expenses, 
these expenses reflect acquisition expenditures related to five large 
distributorships purchased during the period.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE
 
    Depreciation and amortization charges were $1.4 million for the current 
quarter. Depreciation and amortization reflected the depreciation of 
Snapper's property, plant and equipment as well as the amortization of the 
goodwill associated with the acquisition of Snapper.
 
OPERATING LOSSES
 
    Snapper experienced an operating loss of $8.5 million during the quarter. 
This loss was the result of the acquisition expenses related to five large 
distributorships repurchased during the quarter as well as lower than 
expected sales to distributors. Management anticipates that Snapper will not 
be profitable for the full year of 1997 as it completes the repurchase of 
certain finished goods from distributors for resale to dealers in subsequent 
periods. Management believes that these actions will benefit Snapper's 
operating and financial performance in the future.
 
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997
 
REVENUES
 
    Snapper's 1997 period sales were $132.6 million. Snapper continued to 
implement its program to sell products directly to dealers. In implementing 
this program to restructure its distribution network, Snapper repurchased 
certain distributor inventory which resulted in sales reductions of $23.6 
million. Sales of lawn and garden equipment contributed the majority of the 
revenues during the period. Sales were much lower than anticipated due to 
unseasonably cool weather during April and May, and due to the impact of 
lower distributor sales than expected due to the repurchase of distributor 
inventory.
 
    Gross profit during the period was $42.9 million. Although higher sales 
margins were obtained during the period due to the continuing implementation 
of the program to restructure the distribution network, the low profit 
results were caused by lower than anticipated sales as noted above.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
    Selling, general and administrative expenses were $47.7 million for the 
period. In addition to normal selling, general and administrative expenses, 
these expenses reflect additional television commercial expenditures to 
assist Snapper dealers during the distribution network restructuring, as well 
as acquisition expenditures related to seven distributorships purchased 
during the period.
 
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE
 
    Depreciation and amortization charges were $5.2 million for the period. 
Depreciation and amortization reflected the depreciation of Snapper's 
property, plant and equipment as well as the amortization of the goodwill 
associated with the acquisition of Snapper.
 
OPERATING LOSSES

                                          32
<PAGE>
 
    Snapper experienced an operating loss of $10.0 million during the period. 
The loss was the result of unseasonably cool weather during April and May of 
the period and the acquisition of the distributorships during the period. 
Management anticipates that Snapper will not be profitable for the full year 
of 1997 as it completes the repurchase of certain finished goods from 
distributors for resale to dealers in subsequent periods. Management believes 
that these actions will benefit Snapper's operating and financial performance 
in the future.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months Ended September
30, 1996.

CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

    Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was 
$74.9 million, an increase in cash used in operations of $41.6 million from 
the same period in the prior year.

    Net income (loss) includes significant non-cash items of the gain on the 
Entertainment Group Sale, operating loss of discontinued operations, equity 
in losses and writedown of investment in RDM, losses on early extinguishment
of debt, depreciation, amortization, equity in losses of Joint Ventures and 
losses allocable to minority interests. Excluding the gain on the 
Entertainment Group Sale of $246.3 million in 1997 non-cash items increased 
to $108.4 million from $51.5 million in 1996. The increase relates 
principally to the increase in depreciation and amortization associated with 
the consolidation of Snapper, losses from discontinued operations and the 
equity losses and write down of the Company's investment in RDM partially 
offset by losses allocable to AAT's minority owners. Changes in assets and 
liabilities, net of the effect of acquisitions, decreased cash flows for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 by $49.4 million and $4.0 
million, respectively.

    The decrease in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
resulted from the increased losses in the Communications Group's operations 
due to the start-up nature of these operations and increases in selling, 
general and administrative expenses to support the increase in the number of 
joint ventures and the inclusion of Snapper's operating losses in 1997. The 
increase in operating assets principally reflects increases in inventory of 
Snapper products.

CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

    Cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 
30, 1997 was $215.8 million as compared to cash used in investing activities 
of $16.0 million in the comparable period in the prior year. The principal 
reason for the increase in cash provided by investing activities was the net
proceeds from the Entertainment Group sale of $276.6 million. Cash used in 
investments in and advances to joint ventures and additions to property, 
plant and equipment were $37.3 million and $9.5 million, respectively, in 
1997 as compared to $25.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively in 1996 and 
the Communications Group utilized $9.1 million of funds in acquisitions in 
the nine months ended September 30, 1997.

CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

    Cash provided by financing activities was $81.2 million for the nine 
months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $149.1 million in the same period 
in the prior year. The current year includes the proceeds from the issuance 
of 4,140,000 shares of 7 1/4% cumulative convertible preferred stock of 
$199.4 million as compared to 1996 which includes proceeds of $190.6 million 
from the issuance of 18,400,000 shares of common stock. Of the $156.7 million 
of payments in 1997 in notes and subordinated debt, $155.5 million relates to 
payment on the Company's debentures. Of the $42.6 million of payments in 1996 
on notes subordinated debt $28.8 million was the repayment of the revolving 
credit agreement by the Company.

THE COMPANY

    MMG is a holding company and, accordingly, does not generate cash flows. 
The Communications Group is dependent on MMG for significant capital 
infusions to fund its operations and make acquisitions, as well as fulfill 
its commitments to make capital contributions and loans to its Joint 
Ventures. Such funding requirements are based on the anticipated funding 
needs of its Joint Ventures and certain acquisitions committed to by the 
Company. Future capital requirements of the Communications Group, including 
future acquisitions, will depend on available funding from the Company and on 
the ability of the Communications Group's Joint Ventures to generate positive 
cash flows. In addition, Snapper is restricted under covenants contained in 
its credit agreements from making dividend payments or advances to MMG. In 
addition, periodically, the Company has been required to fund the short-term 
working capital needs of Snapper.

    Since each of the Communications Group's Joint Ventures operates 
businesses, such as wireless cable television, fixed telephony, paging and 
cellular telecommunications, that are capital intensive and require the 
investment of significant amounts of capital in order to construct and 
develop operational systems and market its services, the Company will require 
in addition to its cash on hand and the proceeds from the anticipated sale of 
Landmark, additional financing in order to satisfy its on-going working 
capital requirements and to achieve its long-term business strategies. Such 
additional capital may be provided through the public or private sale of 
equity or debt securities. No assurance can be given that additional 
financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. If 
adequate additional funds are not available, the Company may be required to 
curtail significantly its long term business objectives and the Company's 
results from operations may be materially and adversely affected.
 
    Management believes that its long term liquidity needs will be satisfied
through a combination of the Company's successful implementation and execution
of its growth strategy to become a global communications and media company and
the Communications Group's Joint Ventures achieving positive operating results
and cash flows through revenue and subscriber growth and control of operating
expenses.
 
    As the Communications Group is in the early stages of development, the
Company expects this group to generate significant net losses as it continues to
build out and market its services. Accordingly, the Company expects to generate
consolidated net losses for the foreseeable future.

THE COMMUNICATIONS GROUP

    The Communications Group has invested significantly (in cash through 
capital contributions, loans and management assistance and training) in its 
Joint Ventures. The Communications Group has also incurred significant 
expenses in identifying, negotiating and pursuing new wireless 
telecommunications opportunities in emerging markets. The Communications 
Group and primarily all of its Joint Ventures are experiencing continuing 
losses and negative operating cash flow since the businesses are in the 
development and start up phase of operations.
 
    The wireless cable television, paging, fixed wireless loop telephony, GSM 
and international toll calling businesses are capital intensive. The 
Communications Group generally provides the primary source of funding for its 
Joint Ventures both for working capital and capital expenditures, with the 
exception of certain of its GSM Joint Ventures. Certain GSM ventures have 
been funded to date on a pro-rata basis by western sponsors, and the 
Communications Group has funded its pro rata share of the GSM Joint Venture 
obligations. The Communications Group has and continues to have discussions 
with vendors, commercial lenders and international financial institutions to 
provide funding for the GSM Joint Ventures. The Communications Group's joint 
venture agreements generally provide for the initial contribution of assets 
or cash by the Joint Venture partners, and for the provision of a line of 
credit from the Communications Group to the Joint Venture. Under a typical 
arrangement, the Communications Group's Joint Venture partner contributes the 
necessary licenses or permits under which the Joint Venture will conduct its 
business, studio or office space, transmitting tower rights and other 
equipment. The Communications Group's contribution is generally cash and 
equipment, but may consist of other specific assets as required by the joint 
venture agreement.
 
    Credit agreements between the Joint Ventures and the Communications Group
are intended to provide such ventures with sufficient funds for operations and
equipment purchases. The credit agreements generally provide for interest to be
accrued at rates ranging from the prime rate to the prime rate plus 6% and for
payment of principal and interest from 90% of the Joint Venture's available cash
flow, as defined, prior to any distributions of dividends to the Communications
Group or its Joint Venture partners. The credit agreements also often provide
the Communications Group the right to appoint the general director of the Joint
Venture and the right to approve the annual business plan of the Joint Venture.
Advances under the credit agreements are made to the Joint Ventures in the form
of cash for working capital purposes, as direct payment of expenses or
expenditures, or in the form of equipment, at the cost of the equipment plus
cost of shipping. As of September 30, 1997, the Communications Group was
committed to provide funding under the various credit lines in an aggregate
amount of approximately $92.1 million, of which $13.1 million remained unfunded.
The Communications Group's funding commitments under a credit agreement are
contingent upon its approval of the Joint Venture's business plan. The
Communications Group reviews the actual results compared to the approved
business plan on a periodic basis. If the review indicates a material variance
from the approved business plan, the Communications Group may terminate or
revise its commitment to fund the credit agreements.
 
    The Communications Group's consolidated and unconsolidated Joint Ventures'
ability to generate positive operating results is dependent upon their ability
to attract subscribers to their systems, their ability to control operating
expenses and the sale of commercial advertising time. Management's current plans
with respect to the Joint Ventures are to increase subscriber and advertiser
bases and thereby operating revenues by developing a broader band of programming
packages for wireless cable and radio broadcasting and offering additional
services and options for paging and telephony services. By offering the large
local populations of the countries in which the Joint Ventures operate desired
services at attractive prices, management believes that the Joint Ventures can
increase their subscriber and advertiser bases and generate positive operating


                                     35

cash flow, reducing their dependence on the Communications Group for funding of
working capital. Additionally, advances in wireless subscriber equipment
technology are expected to reduce capital requirements per subscriber. Further
initiatives to develop and establish profitable operations include reducing
operating costs as a percentage of revenue and assisting Joint Ventures in
developing management information systems and automated customer care and
service systems. No assurances can be given that such initiatives will be
successful.
 
    Additionally, if the Joint Ventures do become profitable and generate
sufficient cash flows in the future, there can be no assurance that the Joint
Ventures will pay dividends or return capital at any time.

    The ability of the Communications Group and its consolidated and
unconsolidated Joint Ventures to establish profitable operations is also subject
to significant political, economic and social risks inherent in doing business
in emerging markets such as Eastern Europe, the republics of the former Soviet
Union, the PRC, and other emerging markets. These include matters arising out of
government policies, economic conditions, imposition of or changes to taxes or
other similar charges by governmental bodies, foreign exchange rate fluctuations
and controls, civil disturbances, deprivation or unenforceablility of
contractual rights, and taking of property without fair compensation.
 
    The Communications Group's primary source of funds was from the Company 
in the form of non-interest bearing intercompany loans.
 
    Until the Communications Group's consolidated and unconsolidated operations
generate positive cash flow, the Communications Group will require significant
capital to fund its operations, and to make capital contributions and loans to
its Joint Ventures. The Communications Group relies on the Company to provide
the financing for these activities. The Company believes that as more of the
Communications Group's Joint Ventures commence operations and reduce their
dependence on the Communications Group for funding, the Communications Group
will be able to finance its own operations and commitments from its operating
cash flow and the Communications Group will be able to attract its own financing
from third parties. There can, however, be no assurance that additional capital
in the form of debt or equity will be available to the Communications Group at
all or on terms and conditions that are acceptable to the Company, and as a
result, the Communications Group will continue to depend upon the Company for
its financing needs.

SNAPPER
 
    Snapper's liquidity is generated from operations and borrowings. On November
26, 1996, Snapper entered into a credit agreement (the "Snapper Credit
Agreement") with AmSouth pursuant to which AmSouth has agreed to make available
to Snapper a revolving line of credit up to $55.0 million, the Snapper Revolver,
through January 1, 1999. The Snapper Revolver is guaranteed by the Company. The
Snapper Revolver contains covenants regarding minimum quarterly cash flow and
equity requirements.
 
    On April 30, 1997, Snapper closed a on the Working Capital Facility with 
AmSouth. The $10.0 million working capital facility will (i) have a PARI 
PASSU collateral interest in all of Snapper's assets (including rights under 
the Make-Whole and Pledge Agreement made by Metromedia in favor of AmSouth in 
connection with the Snapper Revolver), (ii) accrue interest on borrowings at 
AmSouth's floating prime rate (same borrowing rate as the Snapper Revolver), 
and (iii) become due and payable on October 1, 1997. As additional 
consideration for AmSouth making this new facility available, Snapper 
provided to AmSouth the joint and several guarantees of Messrs. Kluge and 
Subotnick, Chairman of the Board of MMG and Vice Chairman, President and 
Chief Executive Officer of MMG, respectively, on the $10.0 million working 
capital facility. The Company repaid the Working Capital Facility on October 
1, 1997. During the months of August and September, MMG loaned Snapper an 
additional $10.0 million to meet working capital and distributor repurchase 
proceeds. 

    On November 12, 1997, Snapper amended and restated the Snapper Credit 
Agreement to increase the amount of the revolving line of credit from $55.0 
million to $80.0 million.  Interest on the Snapper Revolver bears interest at 
an applicable margin above the prime rate (up to 15%) or a LIBOR rate (up to 
4.0%).  The Snapper Revolver matures on January 1, 2000.  The Snapper 
Revolver continues to be guaranteed by the Company and Messrs.  Kluge and 
Subotnick have agreed to guarantee $10.0 million of the Snapper Revolver. The 
Snapper Credit Agreement, as amended, continues to contain certain financial 
covenants regarding maintaining minimum tangible net worth and satisfying 
certain quarterly cash flow requirements.

<PAGE>


    At September 30, 1997, Snapper was in compliance with the financial
covenants under the Snapper Revolver and Working Capital Facility.
 
    Snapper has entered into various long-term manufacturing and purchase
agreements with certain vendors for the purchase of manufactured products and
raw materials. As of September 30, 1997, noncancelable commitments under these
agreements amounted to approximately $25.0 million.
 
    Snapper has an agreement with a financial institution which makes available
floor plan financing to distributors and dealers of Snapper products. This
agreement provides financing for dealer inventories and accelerates Snapper's
cash flow. Under the terms of the agreement, a default in payment by a dealer is
nonrecourse to both the distributor and to Snapper. However, the distributor is
obligated to repurchase any equipment recovered from the dealer and Snapper is
obligated to repurchase the recovered equipment if the distributor defaults. At
September 30, 1997, there was approximately $42.8 million outstanding under this
floor plan financing arrangement. The Company has guaranteed Snapper's payment
obligations under this agreement.
 
    Management believes that available cash on hand, borrowings from the Snapper
Revolver, and on as needed basis short-term working capital funding from the
Company, and the cash flow generated by operating activities will provide
sufficient funds for Snapper to meet its obligations.

PART II.  Other Information

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

    Except as set forth below, for a description of legal proceedings, reference
is made to the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 1997.

Michael Shores v.  Samuel Goldwyn Company, et al.

    On May 20, 1996, Shore v. Samuel Goldwyn Company, et al., Case No. BC
150360, was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California as a
purported class action lawsuit. Plaintiff Michael Shores alleged that, in
connection with the Goldwyn Merger, Goldwyn's directors and majority
shareholders breached their fiduciary duties to the public shareholders of
Goldwyn. Plaintiff subsequently added, in an amended complaint, an allegation
that the Company aided and abetted the other defendants' fiduciary breaches. The
Company successfully demurred to the amended complaint on the ground that it did
not state a cause of action against the Company, and plaintiff was given an
opportunity to replead. Plaintiff has filed a second amended complaint and now
alleges, in addition to his other claims, that the Company negligently
misrepresented and/or omitted material facts in the Company's prospectus issued
for the Goldwyn Merger. 
 
Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. V. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc., et al.
 
    On October 29, 1997, Samuel Goldwyn, Jr., former chairman of Goldwyn, filed
Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. v. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc., et al., Case No. BC 180290, in
Superior Court of the State of California, alleging that the Company
fraudulently induced him and the Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. Family Trust (the "Trust")
to enter into various agreements in connection with the Goldwyn Merger; breached
an agreement to guarantee the performance of Goldwyn Entertainment Company's
obligations to the Trust; and is using, without permission, the "Samuel Goldwyn"
trademark. The complaint also alleges that the Company and other defendants
breached Mr. Goldwyn's employment agreement and fiduciary duties owed to him and
the Trust, both before and after the sale of Goldwyn Entertainment Company to
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. 

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
