                                     PART I

ITEM 1 - BUSINESS

GENERAL

         First National Entertainment Corp. (the "Corporation") was founded to
pursue the acquisition, distribution and marketing of high quality entertainment
properties targeted at the family market in all forms of media. The Corporation
was incorporated on January 10, 1985, under the name of Power Capital Inc., a
Colorado corporation. In November of 1989, Power Capital became a public
company. On October 26, 1990 Power Capital acquired 100% of the stock of 1st
National Film Corp., a California corporation (1st National Film - California)
in a tax-free, stock-for-stock exchange. For financial reporting purposes this
acquisition was considered a reverse acquisition, in which 1st National
Film-California was deemed the acquiring or successor parent corporation. In
December of 1990 the name of the Corporation was changed to 1st National Film
Corp. (the "Corporation"), and 1st National Film - California's inception date
of July 7, 1989 is considered the Corporation's inception date. In October of
1994, the Corporation changed its name to First National Entertainment Corp.

         In December, 1991 the Corporation completed the acquisition of all U.S.
and Canadian distribution, merchandising and ancillary licensing rights to the
completed animated film property Happily Ever After for approximately $1.35
million.

         In 1993, the Corporation left the developmental stage and entered the
operational stage concurrent with the national theatrical release of Happily
Ever After. The revenue resulting from the release of the motion picture,
including other forms of media, was well below projections. Resulting losses
were significant and the Company accumulated a substantial tax-loss
carry-forward.

         With the entry of a new management team in 1997 a business plan was
developed with the approval of the Board of Directors to immediately develop an
income stream, establish positive cash flow, pursue continuation and expansion
in the entertainment industry while exploring new business opportunities that
could immediately utilize its other unique resources.

         In 1997 the Corporation established First National Finance Corp. This
division provides short term, high yield bridge loans primarily to developers
and redevelopers of real estate in the Chicago area. The cash flow from this
division currently supports the daily cash requirements of the entire
Corporation.

         The Corporation had been listed and traded on the NASDAQ since July,
1991 until it was delisted July 3, 1997. The Corporation was denied its
delisting appeal on January 28, 1998 by the NASD Board of Governors.
Currently the Corporation trades on the OTC Bulletin Board.


FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP.(THE CORPORATION)

         Holding Corporation for subsidiaries in the general entertainment
industry and the finance industry. The company has the following wholly owned
subsidiaries. A brief overview and then in depth presentations follow.



                                       1

ENTERTAINMENT SUBSIDIARIES

FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP.(FNAT)

                  This Company maintains unrestricted distribution rights to a
variety of media and products for Canada and the United States relating to its
full length animated movie - Happily Ever After. This movie is primarily aimed
at the 3 to 7 year old market, films of this nature have continuing value since
the target age group turns over quickly and there is a new market available
every 3 to 5 years. An added asset is the fact that the movie has never been
viewed on public or cable television.

         The company anticipates continued efforts toward revenue generation in
1999 from the Happily Ever After property.


EQUATOR ENTERTAINMENT

         The Plan to diversify was enhanced in 1998 with the addition of Mr.
Peter Keefe located in Los Angeles area. A new company was created and will
operate under the name Equator Entertainment will focus upon programs that have
"all-family" appeal and that are calculated to achieve success in the domestic
and international market place. Mr. Peter Keefe has many years of experience in
children's animated entertainment and is a well known and respected executive in
the television industry.


STYLUS RECORDS

         A Company acquired in 1994 (80%) which ceased operations several years
ago.

VIDEO CHAIN SUBSIDIARY

FIRST NATIONAL VIDEO CORP.

         In April, 1998 the Company acquired the assets of Windy City Video a
chain of six retail video stores in the Chicagoland area.



FINANCING SUBSIDIARY


FIRST NATIONAL FINANCE CORP.

         In 1997 the Corporation established a wholly owned subsidiary to
contain the assets of Shiloh Corporation, a company engaged in relatively small,
high yield bridge loans.


PRAIRIE BUSINESS CREDIT, INC.

         Company was formed in January, 1999 to acquire the name and assets of a

on January 1, 1999.


                                       2
<PAGE>   5


OTHER SUBSIDIARY

FIRST NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

         The company was established in 1997 to take advantage of an advanced
system for underground pipe service repairs. In 1997 unreconcilable differences
with the European management group led to the corporation extracting itself from
the European subsidiaries, the company was disposed of in 1998.

FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP.(FNAT) - (THE CORPORATION)

MISSION STATEMENT

         The Corporation has developed or continues to develop mission
statements for each subsidiary to establish clear operating parameters. These
statements assist in monitoring each company to maintain a well defined
direction in daily operations and long term planning.


INSURANCE

         The Company maintains adequate insurance policies, including general
liability, workers compensation and employers' liability and officers and
directors. There can be no assurance that any of the above coverage's will be
adequate for the Company's needs.  

EMPLOYEES

         As of December 31, 1998 the Company had four permanent employees,
including two officers and two staff. No employee of the Company is represented
by a labor union or is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company
believes that its relationship with its employees is good.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         The Company did not incur any research and development (R&D) costs for
the period ended December 31, 1998 or the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997.
The Company does not expect to generate any significant R&D costs in fiscal
1999.

REGULATION

         The Code and Ratings Administration of the Motion Picture Association
of America, an independent industry trade association, assigns ratings for age
suitability for viewing of motion pictures. The Company has and will continue to
submit its films for ratings.

         United States television stations and networks, as well as foreign
governments, impose restrictions on the content of motion pictures and other
entertainment properties. There can be no assurance that future restrictions on
entertainment properties released by the Company may not affect the Company's
ability to exhibit or sell such entertainment properties.


INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

         The Company competes with many other entertainment companies that have
greater industry experience, acceptance and financial resources than the
Company. The Company faces significant 




                                       3
<PAGE>   6

competition from companies in the field of acquiring, financing, developing, 
producing, marketing and distributing quality entertainment products into 
related markets.


EQUATOR ENTERTAINMENT (EE)

GENERAL

         Mr. Peter Keefe was named to head up the company's entertainment
operations. Mr. Keefe will be responsible for expanding the Company's presence
in the industry through program creation, production and sales & marketing, with
an emphasis upon building an entertainment program library in which the Company
will have a substantial ownership.

         Equator Entertainment will focus upon programs that have family appeal
and that will be successful in the domestic and international marketplace. One
of the initial primary thrusts is in representing international programs for
sale to American television networks.

SALES & MARKETING

         Equator Entertainment will prudently "grow" its business with the
addition of further key executives to compliment its new business plan. In
addition, Mr. Keefe has an extensive network of contacts in the television
broadcast and production community as well as in the merchandise licensing
business throughout the world entertainment market. The focus will be
extraordinary, character driven entertainment properties which appeal to
children two to eleven years old.

OPERATIONS

         Currently, the Company has two employees and is located in California.
All accounting, payroll and operating requirements are handled through an
agreement with the Corporation.

COMPETITION

         Competing in a world entertainment environment, competition comes from
a variety of international producers, distributors and studios. Equator expects
to market high end, world class children's entertainment properties in the
global television, video, music, publishing and merchandising marketplace. A
sample of the competition ranges from Disney to Canal Plus and Egmont in Europe.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Equator does not expect any revenue until the latter part of 1999. A
Board approved forecast has a goal of break even for the initial full year of
operations. Agreements with television networks require substantial advance
timing before revenue is recognized due to the nature of industry scheduling.

         The Corporation is prepared to fund operations until a positive Cash
Flow can be expected, during year two of operations, in 2000.


FIRST NATIONAL VIDEO CORP.(FNVC)

GENERAL

         In April, 1998 the corporation acquired the assets of a chain of six
retail video stores. These stores are located in the Chicago area. Five of the
six stores were in excellent locations. The sixth store was marginal and
eventually closed in the fourth quarter 1998. 


                                       4

<PAGE>   7

OPERATIONS

         A General Manager oversees a manager at each location. Controls over
cash and credit card receipts are maintained on a daily basis. Currently, videos
are purchased in a range of $25.00 to $85.00 and in turn rented or sold.

         During 1998 it was determined the best course of action for an under
performing store was to close it. This was completed in November, 1998. In order
to attract more traffic, Illinois Lotto was added to each store.

EMPLOYEES

         Collectively the stores employ approximately 60 full and part time
employees. Managers and some assistant managers are salaried with the remainder
of the employees hourly. Currently, the company has no union and does not
anticipate one.

INDUSTRY OUTLOOK/COMPETITION

         Currently the independent video store segment of the industry is under
siege from the large national chains, particularly Blockbuster and Hollywood
Video. In addition to opening hundreds of new stores nationally (some of which
may affect the company's existing locations) Blockbuster has negotiated a
tremendously favorable deal with the major studios. This deal is detrimental to
the sales health of many independent stores. This type of deal is Pay Per View -
which is a plan offering the videos at a very nominal cost, usually $8.00 or
less, and sharing in the revenue. This allows for many more copies per store
with a nominal initial cash investment.

         The company has an agreement with Rentrak, a company which provides
videos on a Pay Per View basis. This should result in obtaining a competitive
quantity of first run titles during the second quarter of 1999. It is uncertain
at this time how revenue sharing will effect income for 1999.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         A loan of $400,000 was obtained from a national bank and all payments
have been made on a timely basis.

         With the rapidly changing adverse market the company lost a substantial
amount during 1998. The company has and will continue to make cost cutting and
revenue enhancing steps so as not to incur additional losses in 1999.


STYLUS RECORDS

         In 1998, the company was able to negotiate a repurchase of all shares
of Stylus and has allowed the company to be dissolved.

         The guarantee of certain stock values for 60,000 shares of First
National Entertainment Corp. common stock was negotiated and the shares returned
or the guarantee eliminated. (See Financial Statement, Note 12 "Stylus
Records").

PRAIRIE BUSINESS CREDIT, INC.(PBCI)

THE COMPANY

         Prairie Business Credit, Inc. is in the business of factoring, i.e.
purchasing accounts receivable from companies and those in transition that do
not qualify for bank standard credit. Prairie succeeds in this form of lending
to companies by relying on the credit of the client's customers, not the credit
of the client. Extensive credit research reduces a significant (although not
all) possible losses through the failure of the ultimate customer to pay the
factored invoices.

         PBCI was started in July of 1993 by Trevor Morgan who has more than
twenty five years experience lending to business. PBCI has a staff of seasoned
lenders and accounts receivable professionals.

THE MARKET

         Prairie's target market is new companies with a brief history of
selling a proven product without sufficient history or credit worthiness to
obtain standard banking financing. PBCI fills this short term void. Client
longevity with Prairie has been six months to three years. Our clients either
achieve enough success to be bankable or have sufficient internal cash.
Factoring is particularly attractive to fast growing young companies who do not
want to, or cannot raise equity to fund a growth surge. New business is usually
obtained through referrals from banks, attorneys, accountants and other business
professionals. Some new business has come from replies to our web page.

THE BUSINESS

         Factoring is the purchase of accounts receivable at a discount by a
third party. Prairie typically advances 60-80% of the face value of the account
receivable invoice upon verification of its validity. The amount not advanced,
the "reserve", less the factor's discount, the "commission", is remitted to the
client after collection. Prairie purchases accounts on a full recourse basis,
i.e. the client must buy them back if the invoice goes 60 days past terms.
Prairie requires personal guarantees from all clients. PBC may not necessarily
purchase all a clients receivables but has the right and the capability to
notify all the client's customers to pay Prairie directly to satisfy any past
due accounts regardless if the client has submitted the account to Prairie for
factoring. Prairie also has full offset rights.


MARKETING

         Mr. Morgan leads the sales effort through numerous professional
referral contacts in the banking industry, public accounting and business
professionals. The marketing goal for 1999 is to significantly increase the
purchases of receivables from existing and new prospects. Personnel, systems and
procedures are in place to increase capacity to well over $5,000,000 a month in
purchased invoices. The company expects some moderate growth from our existing
clients and significant growth from new clients due to significantly increased
advertising and calling efforts. The ultimate size and success will be
determined by the ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees and
to raise funds.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         In order to attain the goal of $5,000,000 per month in purchased
invoices, a new line of credit will need to be established increasing the amount
to approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000. Currently the company is in the
process of obtaining a revolving bank loan to meet our objective.

FIRST NATIONAL FINANCE CORP.(FNFC)

         The Corporation established FNFC as a wholly owned subsidiary to
acquire certain assets from Shiloh Corporation. Mr. Charles E. Nootens was
elected Chairman of the company's Board of Directors effective June 30, 1997.

         FNFC issued $3,500,000 principal amount of preferred stock and 50 call
pack options, at $10,000 each, to purchase 20 million shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock at 10 cents a share in exchange for the assets of Mr.
Nootens business. As of June 30, 1997, FNFC had issued additional call pack
options to purchase an aggregate of 8 million of the Corporation's common
shares. These calls were issued for a consideration of 2.5 cents per share and
entitled the holder to purchase shares at 10 cents per share or an aggregate of
$800,000.

         The Corporation obtained approximately $3.5 million dollars of assets
($2.9 million liquid short-term) with the issuance of preferred stock in FNFC
and Call Options. Included in the short term assets are loans receivable,
interest and cash. (See Financial Statements, Note 15 "Continuing Operations,
Acquisitions and Subsequent Events").


INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

         Urban areas are experiencing significant demands for redevelopment of
single and multiple family dwellings. Many qualified developers responding to
this demand require short term financing. The Company provides this financing
generally in large metropolitan areas.


FNFC'S FINANCING SERVICE OVERVIEW

         FNFC is an active business engaged in making relatively small, high
yield bridge loans. These loans are typically in the range of $25,000 to
$100,000 to developers and redevelopers of real estate and to a lesser extent
tangible personal property and to producers, inventors, authors and syndicators
of media, software and other similar entertainment and intellectual properties.
The Corporation expanded through the acquisition of Prairie Business Credit an
accounts receivable factoring company. The company anticipates transferring a
significant amount of its bridge loan portfolio cash to the factoring
subsidiary.

         During 1998 FNFC financed certain old time successful television shows
which were being released on VHS and DVD. These loans were for six months or
less and secured by a library of established television shows previously
converted to video tape.


SALES AND MARKETING

         Through networking the Company has established contacts in local
markets allowing the Company to capitalize on their expertise. Guidelines have
been established to attract clients capable of fulfilling their business loan
obligations on a timely basis. The Company's marketing strategy incorporates a
continued review of client's needs, areas which require its services and
development of long-term relationships with borrowers to more fully understand
and anticipate their needs. The Company is currently negotiating with several
banks for an increase in its line of credit to expand its financing activities.

COMPETITION

         The short term loan industry is very competitive and fragmented. There
are limited barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter the market.
Some may possess substantially greater resources. The Company believes that the
availability of quality loan candidates, level of service, effective monitoring



                                       7
<PAGE>   10

of loan and renovation performance and the price of service are the principal
elements of competition in bridge loans.

EMPLOYEES

         As of March 15, 1999 FNFC has no employees and has a management
agreement for all services with First National Entertainment Corp.

PROPERTIES

         The Company shares space with its parent in a leased office which has
an annual lease ending December 31, 2001.


SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (FNFC)

         FNFC completed the acquisition of the name and assets of Prairie
Business Credit, Inc. in February, 1999 retroactive to January 1, 1999. (See
Financial Statement, Note 15 "Continuing Operations, Acquisitions, and
Subsequent Events").


FIRST NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (FNET)

         In 1997 the corporation established a subsidiary (FNET) which acquired
a Swiss management company and an 80% interest in a German subsidiary.

         The companies were to develop operating systems for seamless
underground pipe repair utilizing a state of the art system which would save
customers thousands of dollars when compared to the current repair methods.

         Significant differences arose and it became evident the corporation
could not agree on a business plan with the European managers. An original plan
to shut down the company in January of 1998 failed due to the inability of the
Europartners to fulfill their obligations in the agreement. In July, 1998 an
agreement was reached to dispose of FNET and ownership was transferred to a new
company formed by two of the three Swiss shareholders. All warrants were
negated. Two of three Swiss owners returned 735,000 Common shares. The company
received a $270,000 note conditional upon the new company meeting certain
performance measurements. There is no guarantee the loan in the amount of
$270,000 will be collected. (See Financial Statements, Note 4 "Notes
Receivable"). The net effect of this transaction was to recognize a gain on
disposal of approximately $5,700.


FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP.(THE CORPORATION)


TURNAROUND PLAN & SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         The corporation continues to follow a Business Turnaround Plan
developed in 1997, when the new management team led by Chairman Mr. Charles
Nootens was established. At that time it was determined that the company had
primary assets of a large shareholder base on the OTC Market and a tax-loss
carry-forward of approximately $23,500,000.

         The Plan consisted of two major parts - establish and expand a
financial services business primarily in bridge loans and accounts receivable
factoring while re-establishing a viable general entertainment division. In 1998
and early 1999 the Corporation has completed two acquisitions toward 



                                       8
<PAGE>   11

these goals with the addition of Mr. Peter Keefe (now Equator Entertainment)

ITEM 6 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

         When the new management team began the challenge of returning the
corporation to profitability, it was determined that a business plan that
acquired the assets of the short term bridge loan company for immediate positive
cash flow and allowed for re-entry into general entertainment would eventually
generate positive earnings on a consolidated basis.

         When attempting a turnaround certain ventures entered into are
successful and others less successful. At the same time a great deal of effort
must be made to clear up any past financial problems which may have been harmful
to the turnaround. Stylus Records (See Financial Statement, Note 12, "Stylus
Records") is one example. The company was able to negotiate a favorable
settlement of the potential liability in cash or stock and bring this venture to
a conclusion.

         During 1998 the publishing company proved unsuccessful and the company
experienced a limited loss which has been concluded.

         The video store chain requires a great deal of effort, especially in a
rapidly changing industry. The company has made numerous changes in services,
personnel and operations to restore this subsidiary to profitability. At the
same time consideration is being given towards sale of the stores.

         After almost one year of negotiation an agreement was reached in 1999
to acquire the name and assets of Prairie Business Credit, Inc. an accounts
receivable factoring company. The corporation believes this will contribute
profits to the corporation almost immediately.

         The bridge loan business continued to provide the necessary cash flow
to operate the company. During the latter part of the year our policy changed to
one of faster turnover of the business loans. The loans are primarily made for
residential (up to 3 apartments) renovation in Chicago. The availability of
properties and the market for these properties remains strong. During 1998
expansion of the loan base did require additional bank and shareholder
borrowings.

         In establishing Equator Entertainment the corporation is in pursuit of
the second part of the two part business plan - entry into the children's
entertainment industry. Currently in phase one the company has obtained upwards
of twenty animated children's shows from international producers for sale in the
U.S. Equator will obtain a percentage of the sales price.

         First National Environmental Technologies was converted to a loan and
at this time the subsidiary is dormant.


                                       10
<PAGE>   13

         During 1998 it was the intention of the corporation to begin a first
class world tour travel company, however, after extensive review the Board of
Directors determined to loan funds on a convertible basis rather than establish
First National World Tours, Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary.


THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE

         As the year 2000 approaches, a significant business issue has emerged
regarding how existing application software programs and operating systems can
accommodate the date value for the year 2000. Many existing software application
products, including software application products used by the Corporation and
its suppliers and customers, were designed to accommodate only a two digit date
value, which represents the year. For example, information relating to the year
1996 is stored in the system at "96". As a result, the year 1999 (i.e. "99")
could be the maximum date value that these systems will be able to process
accurately.

         Total compliance of all systems is expected by management to be
completed by the third quarter of 1999. The Corporation does not anticipate
material costs in addressing the Year 2000 issue. At this time it does not
appear that future operating results or financial condition will be materially
affected. With new software in FNVC required to comply with Rentrak Pay Per View
reporting, all video stores will be Y2K ready. However, if such modifications
and conversions are not made, or are not completed timely, the year 2000 issue
could have a material adverse impact on the operations of the Corporation. In
addition there can be no assurance that unforseen problems in the Corporation's
computer systems, or the systems of third parties on which the Corporation's
computers rely, will not have an adverse effect on the Corporation's systems or
operations.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

         The form 10-K includes certain "forward looking" statements, which
reflect the Corporation's current expectations regarding the future results of
operations, performance, and achievements. First National Entertainment Corp.
has tried, wherever possible, to identify these statements by having words such
as "believe", "anticipate", "expect" and similar expressions. These
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause the actual results, performances or achievements of
the Corporation or its industry to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or impaired by such
forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include the following:
economic activity in the United States, continued strong building rehabilitation
market with available mortgage funds; the Corporation's ability to attract new
businesses to its plan of diversification; the retention of key personnel;
exposure to liability risk and changes in tax or regulatory requirements.

REVENUE

         The Corporation's revenues were generated from interest and loan fees
in the Finance subsidiary and video store rentals and sales.



NET OPERATING REVENUE

         Net operating revenue from continuing operations increased from $-0-
for the year ended June 30, 1997 to $301,434 for the six months ended December
31, 1997 to $1,535,047 for the year ended December 31, 1998.

OPERATING EXPENSES

         Operating expenses from continuing operations went from $2.8 million
for the year ended June 30, 1997 to $755,102 for the six month period ended

were $490,000 and $2.2 million in expenses related to the write-off of film
inventory costs for the periods ended December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997,
respectively (See Financial Statements, Note 6 - "Amortization of Film
Inventory"). For the year ended December 31, 1998 there was a $216,000 loss
recorded in conjunction with the sale of real estate held for development. In
addition approximately $175,000 was paid to Mr. Petere Keefe as a signing bonus
for him to join the Corporation and run the newly formed Equator Entertainment
subsidiary. The reserve for loan losses was increased by $113,000 and
approximately $35,000 was recorded as a lease liability in conjunction with
closing one of the video stores.


OPERATING LOSS

         Operating loss from continuing operations decreased from $2.8 million
for the year ended June 30, 1997 to $(453,668) for the six months ended December
31, 1997 to $237,675 for the year ended December 31, 1998.

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE

         Other income of $44,000 was generated for the year ended December 31,
1998 compared to $102,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1997 and other
expense of $173,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997.

INCOME TAXES

         No income tax effect for the year ended December 31, 1998. The
corporation is limited in its annual utilization of loss carrryforwards under
IRC Section 382. "Limitation of Net Operating Loss Carryforwards", based on
certain changes in ownership. (See Financial Statement, Note 10 "Income Taxes").

NET LOSS

         Net loss of $320,963 for the year compared to $1,116,527 net loss for
the six months ended December 31, 1997 and $2,983,712 net loss for the year
ended June 30, 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Historically, the Corporation has financed its operations through cash
generated by operating activities and through external financing, including sale
of warrants, bank credit and private placement of lines of credit.

         The corporation believes that its cash balance, funds from operations
and planned line of revolver credit to be sufficient to fund the operation of
corporate management and growth for the next twelve months.


MANAGEMENT REPORT

         The accompanying financial statements of First National Entertainment
Corp. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") are the responsibility of and have been
prepared by the Corporation in conformity with generally accepted accounting

judgment and estimates. The Corporation seeks to assure the objectivity and
integrity of its financial records by careful selection of its employees and by
insuring that its policies and methods are understood. The Board of Directors
pursue oversight of financial reporting and internal control on a regular basis.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Board of Directors
First National Entertainment Corp.
  and Subsidiaries
Lombard, Illinois


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First National
Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the
consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholders' equity
(deficit) for the year ended December 31, 1998, the six-month period ended
December 31, 1997, and the year ended June 30, 1997. These consolidated
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First National
Entertainment Corp. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31,
1998, the six-month period ended December 31, 1997, and the year ended June 30,
1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

              FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           December 31, 1998 and 1997


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


NOTE 1 - BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

The Company's business has historically been the acquisition, distribution, and
marketing of high-quality entertainment properties targeted at the family market
in film and other media. Beginning in May 1997, the Company embarked on a
diversification program.

First National Finance Corp. was formed for the purpose of extending credit
primarily to developers and redevelopers of real estate and to producers,
inventors, authors, and syndicators of media software and similar entertainment
and intellectual properties in the form of short-term, high-yield bridge loans
(typically in the range of $25,000 to $100,000) (see Note 2).

On April 28, 1998, First National Video Corp. was established when the Company
acquired all of the assets and operating rights to six retail video stores in
the Chicago area. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase. The Company's
primary business is the sale and rental of videocassettes and games. The video
stores also sell various retail merchandise including blank videocassette tapes,
beverages, and snacks.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of First National Entertainment Corp. (a Colorado corporation) and its
subsidiaries, Equator Entertainment, First National Finance Corp., and First
National Video Corp. (collectively referred to as the "Company"). All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

Fiscal Year Change: Effective January 1, 1998, the Company changed its fiscal
year-end of June 30 to a year-end of December 31. The six-month transition
period bridges the gap between the Company's old and new fiscal year end.

Inventories: Inventories, consisting primarily of prerecorded videocassettes,
concessions, and other accessories held for resale, are stated at the lower of
cost or market. Cost of sales is determined on a first-in, first-out basis
("FIFO"). Videocassette rental inventory, which includes video games, is stated
at cost and amortized over its estimated useful life to a $4 per videocassette
salvage value. See Note 4 for discussion of the amortization policy applied to
videocassette rental inventory.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the
Company considers all investments with maturities of three months or less, when
purchased, to be cash equivalents.

Loans Receivable: Loans are stated net of the allowance for loan losses and
unearned discount. Interest on loans is included in operating revenues over the
term of the loan based upon the principal balance outstanding. Where serious
doubt exists as to the collectibility of a loan, the accrual of interest is
discontinued. Loan fees and direct loan origination costs are deferred and
amortized over the term of the loan as a yield adjustment.

The Company has a reserve for unfunded restoration costs which it holds in
escrow. Payments are made from time to time as work is completed and
documentation is presented to a title company for approval. Funds are disbursed
upon a directive from the title company.

Allowance for Loan Losses: An allowance for loan losses has been established to
provide for those loans which may not be repaid in their entirety. The allowance
is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to expense and decreased by
charge-offs, net of recoveries. Although a loan is charged off by management
when deemed uncollectible, collection efforts may continue and future recoveries
may occur.

The allowance is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to
cover losses that are currently anticipated based on past loss experience,
general economic conditions, information about specific borrower situations
(including their financial position and collateral values) and other factors and
estimates which are subject to change over time. Estimating the risk of loss and
the amount of loss on any loan is necessarily subjective and ultimate losses may
vary from current estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and as
adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in
which they become known.

Loans are considered impaired if full principal or interest payments are not
anticipated. Each impaired loan is carried at the present value of expected cash
flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the fair value of
the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance
for loan losses is allocated to an impaired loan if the present value of cash
flows or collateral value indicate the need for an allowance.

For impaired loans and other loans, accrual of interest is discontinued on a
loan when management believes, after considering collection efforts and other
factors, that the borrower's financial condition is such that collection of
interest is doubtful. Cash collections on impaired loans are credited to the
loan receivable balance, and no interest income is recognized on those loans
until the principal balance has been collected.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Property, Plant, and Equipment: Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at
cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, generally 3 to 7 years.

Financial Instruments: The Company's financial instruments consist principally
of loans receivable and notes payable and are carried at amounts which
approximate fair value.

Stock-Based Compensation: On October 23, 1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (the "FASB") issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require, the recognition of
compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options, and other equity
instruments to employees based on a fair value method of accounting. Companies
are permitted to continue to apply the existing accounting rules contained in
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" ("APBO No. 25"); however, companies that choose to retain this method
of accounting are required to provide expanded disclosures of pro forma net
income and earnings per share in the notes to financial statements as if the new
fair value method of accounting had been adopted. The Company has elected to
continue to apply the accounting principles contained in APBO No. 25.

Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the deferred asset and
liability method as required by SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
Deferred income taxes are provided as temporary differences arise between the
basis of asset and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax reporting.

Earnings/(Loss) Per Share: Earnings per common share ("EPS") is computed under
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share," which was adopted retroactively by the Company at December 31, 1997.
Basic earnings/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income/(loss)
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Since the Company has experienced net operating
losses, the outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock have an
anti-dilutive effect. Therefore, options and warrants were not included in
computing dilutive earnings/(loss) per share.

Reclassification: Certain amounts in the financial statements for the six-month
period ended December 31, 1997 and the year ended June 30, 1997 have been
reclassified to conform to the 1998 presentation.

At December 31, 1998, there were approximately $732,000 of impaired loans with
an allowance of approximately $127,000 allocated to these loans. Loans on which
the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted to
approximately $638,000 at December 31, 1998. Interest income recognized on
impaired loans was immaterial in 1998. There were no impaired loans in 1997.

NOTE 5 - VIDEOCASSETTE RENTAL INVENTORY

The Company amortizes its videocassette rental inventory on an accelerated
method. Under this method, videocassette rental inventory, which includes video
games, is stated at cost and amortized, beginning on the date the videocassettes
are placed into service, to its salvage value ($4 per videocassette) over an
estimated useful life of 36 months. All copies of new release videocassettes are
amortized on an accelerated basis during their first three months to an average
net book value of $8 and then on a straight-line basis to their salvage value of
$4 over the next 33 months.


NOTE 6 - AMORTIZATION OF FILM INVENTORY

Amortization of capitalized film property costs is computed using the
individual-film-forecast computation method as promulgated under SFAS No. 53,
"Financial Reporting by Producers and Distributors of Motion Picture Films." At
June 30, 1996, the Company intended to amortize the remaining unamortized film
costs for its Happily Ever After property over the next five years, subject to
future market conditions altering this accounting estimate. The Company's
computation of net realizable value as of June 30, 1997 resulted in a
significant change in the amount of unamortized costs permitted to be charged to
future operations. Accordingly, a charge of $2,200,000 is reflected in the
statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 1997 to reflect the
writedown of film property costs to their estimated net realizable value. At
December 31, 1997, an additional review and analysis of the film's net
realizable value resulted in a charge to income of $490,000.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES (Continued)

Due to changes in the Company's ownership, the annual utilization of the net
operating loss carryforwards arising prior to the ownership changes may be
limited. Generally, the amount of those carryforwards available for annual
utilization is based on the value of the Company at the time of the ownership
change multiplied by a rate specified by the Internal Revenue Service.

The provision for income taxes is summarized as follows:

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES (Continued)

A valuation allowance has been established by the Company due to the
uncertainties of the realization of deferred tax assets based on the Company's
prior history of tax losses. The valuation allowance decreased approximately
$47,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 due to the decrease in net deferred
tax assets. Management will continue to re-evaluate the appropriateness of the
valuation allowance in future years.

There were no income tax payments in the periods ended December 31, 1998 and
1997 and June 30, 1997.


NOTE 11 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Preferred Stock: The Company has authorized the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of
$.0001 par value preferred stock. At December 31, 1998, the Company had not
issued any preferred shares.

Common Stock: During the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
the Company issued 600,000 and 274,000 shares for employee compensation and
professional fees valued at $6,000 and $5,480.

In the second quarter of 1996, the Company initiated an equity restructuring
program in which the Company issued 1,260,000 shares of its common stock (par
value $.005) along with warrants to purchase an additional 1,260,000 shares of
its common stock (par value $.005) at $1/share. Total proceeds from the offering
amounted to $830,000. On October 6, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors
approved and issued an Extension and Optional New Pricing Offer to the holders
of these warrants. These 1,260,000 warrants originally entitled the holders to
purchase an additional share each of the Company's common stock at a price of $1
through an expiration date of December 15, 1997. The Extension and Optional New
Pricing Offer allows an extension until December 31, 1999, at a share price of
$.15 for additional consideration of $.05 per warrant or an extension until
December 31, 2000, at a share price of $.05 for additional consideration of $.10
per warrant. During the year ended June 30, 1997, warrants for 800,000 shares
were extended to December 31, 1999 and warrants for 200,000 shares were extended
to December 31, 2000. Additional paid-in capital of $60,000 was received from
these transactions for the period ended June 30, 1997. During 1998, certain
warrants previously issued in the six-month period ended December 31, 1998 were
cancelled and cash of $20,000 was returned. During 1998, 100,000 warrants were
issued as part of a compensation agreement. The warrants are convertible to
common stock at twenty-five cents a share. There were 13,660,000 warrants
outstanding at December 31, 1998.

NOTE 11 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (Continued)

Rentrak, Inc. of Portland, Oregon is a large distributor of videocassettes on a
pay-per-view basis nationally. On December 22, 1995, the Company and Rentrak
entered into a ten-year agreement whereby Rentrak purchased 357,143 shares of
common stock for $200,000. Rentrak has also agreed to acquire an additional
$10,000 of common stock for each new non-Rentrak video store acquired by the
Company. No new stores have been acquired as of December 31, 1998.

Stock Options: On May 21, 1993, shareholders approved an incentive stock plan
which reserved 3,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock for issuance under
the 1993 Incentive Stock Option Plan ("ISO") and the 1993 Non-Qualified Stock
Option Plan ("NQSO") (collectively referred to as the "1993 Plan"). The 1993
Plan provides incentives to officers, directors, employees, consultants, and
advisors in the form of stock options, subject to certain restrictions. The
Company's Board of Directors determines the granting of options under the 1993
Plan, including the exercise period, contingencies, vesting periods, and
employee qualifications. Options to be issued under the ISO are intended to
qualify as "incentive stock options" under Section 422 of the 1986 Internal
Revenue Code (the "Code"), as amended. Options granted under the NQSO are
subject to fewer restrictions than the ISO and are considered "Non-Statutory
Stock Options" as defined in the Code. As of December 31, 1997, 25,000 options
had been issued under the 1993 Plan. These options were issued in August 1993 at
the exercise price of $1.53 per share. All of the outstanding options were
exercisable at December 31, 1998. No options were exercised during the year
ended December 31, 1998, the six months ended December 31, 1997, or the year
ended June 30, 1997.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan: The Company implemented an Employee Stock Purchase
Plan in 1994 which permits substantially all employees to acquire Company common
stock. Participating employees may acquire stock at the end of each six-month
period (June 30 and December 31 of each year) at a purchase price of 85% of the
lower of fair market value at the beginning or end of the period. Employees may
designate up to 10% of their base compensation for the purchase of stock under
this plan. There are no charges to income in connection with this plan.


NOTE 12 - STYLUS RECORDS

In April 1994, the Company acquired a majority ownership in Stylus Records, a
Delaware Corporation, for 160,000 shares of common stock and the assumption of
$105,000 in liabilities. The Founders' Agreement calls for the Company to
guarantee certain stock values for 60,000 of these issued shares relative to
their market price as of March 31, 1996. The Company had the option to issue
additional shares to the extent of any difference between the market price and
the guarantee price. The Company was dissolved during 1998 and $40,000 was paid
in full

NOTE 13 - LEASES

The Company occupies certain office facilities and video stores under operating
lease arrangements. Under terms of the leases, the Company is responsible for
real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs on the facilities. Total
rent expense under such arrangements was approximately $278,000, $35,000, and
$17,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998, the six months ended December 31,
1997, and the year ended June 30, 1997, respectively. The leases expire from
1999 through 2003.

NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company received notice from the Screen Actors Guild that supplemental
residuals of 4.5% of the first $1,000,000 and 5.4% of all remaining gross
producer receipts are due them. The Company's entertainment counsel is
researching the matter to determine if the Company has a liability related to
this matter. As of December 31, 1998, management has determined there is no
liability to the Company and believes that if any residuals are due, they are
the responsibility of Lou Scheimer and Filmation (the original producer of the
film) or its successor in interest.

Contingent Liabilities Against Future Revenues: The Company has agreed to pay
compensation to various parties based on gross revenues from the film Happily

NOTE 15 - CONTINUING OPERATIONS, ACQUISITIONS, AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has historically incurred operating losses and, at December 31,
1998, has an accumulated deficit of approximately $28.0 million.

Effective June 30, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets from corporations
owned by Mr. Charles E. Nootens, Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors,
through First National Finance Corp. (FNFC), a newly-formed wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company. The new venture is an active business, previously
operated by Mr. Nootens, to extend credit to real estate developers and others
at rates substantially higher than conventional real estate and commercial
loans. See Note 1.

FNFC issued $3,500,000, principal amount, of preferred stock and 50 call pack
options, at $10,000 each, to purchase 20,000,000 shares of First National
Entertainment Corp. common stock at 10 cents a share in exchange for the assets
of Mr. Nootens' business. The acquisition was treated as a purchase and recorded
at the fair market value of the assets received.

NOTE 15 - CONTINUING OPERATIONS, ACQUISITIONS, AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
(Continued)

In the future, FNFC expects to continue making real estate bridge loans and also
to make bridge loans for completion of theatrical and movie productions,
acquisition of distribution rights for entertainment products, completion of
interactive games, and acquisition or financing of various forms of intellectual
media and software entertainment.

In September 1997, the Company acquired a Swiss management company having the
rights to certain ultraviolet light technology and additional capital
contributed by the selling shareholders in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of
common stock. Consolidated net loss includes approximately $680,000 attributable
to operations of the Swiss company. On July 31, 1998, the Company entered into
an agreement to shut down the Swiss operations and transferred ownership to a
new company formed by two of the three Swiss shareholders. The two Swiss
shareholders returned all their shares and any outstanding warrants to the
Company. The net effect of this transaction was to recognize a gain on disposal
of approximately $5,700. In addition, the Company received a $270,000 note
conditional upon the new company meeting certain performance measurements.

As of June 30, 1997, FNFC had issued additional call pack options to purchase an
aggregate of 8,000,000 of the Company's common shares. These calls were issued
for a consideration of 2-1/2 cents per share and entitle the holder to purchase
shares at 10 cents per share or an aggregate of $800,000. During the six-month
period ended December 31, 1997, 20 call pack options were purchased for
$200,000.

On April 28, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets of Alpine Investment,
Inc. through First National Video Corp. (FNVC), a newly formed wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. The new venture operates six video stores in the
Chicagoland area. Income is derived from the sale and rental of videocassettes
and games and other various merchandise. FNVC acquired the assets for $337,000.
The acquisition was treated as a purchase and recorded at the fair market value
of the assets received.

During June of 1998, the Company formed a new subsidiary, Equator Entertainment,
Inc. (EEI), and hired Mr. Peter Keefe as president. EEI's main business is the
creation, production, and distribution of a children's television program
series.

On February 4, 1999, the Company purchased all the assets and the rights to the
name of the Prairie Business Credit, Inc. by converting the advance described in
Note 4, issuance of 100,000 shares of common stock, and other consideration for
a total purchase price of $1,037,000. The transaction was treated as a purchase
and recorded at the fair market value of the assets received. The new business
was established as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNFC and will operate under the
name of Prairie Business Credit, Inc. This new entity is engaged in factoring
accounts receivable.

NOTE 16 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has reportable segments: finance, video, and entertainment. The
finance segment derives its revenues from short-term, high-yield bridge loans.
The video segment derives its revenues from the sale and rental of
videocassettes and games. The entertainment segment operates in the acquisition,
distribution, and marketing of high-quality family entertainment.

The accounting policies for the segments are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance
based on profit or loss from continuing operations.

The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
different products and services. Segment disclosures are on a performance basis
consistent with internal management reporting. The cost of some corporate
functions and the cost of certain employee benefits are sold to segments at
predetermined rates which approximate cost. Remaining costs, if any, are not
allocated to revenue segments. The following segment information has been
prepared in accordance with the internal accounting policies of the Company, as
described above, and may not be presented in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. The finance segment commenced operations on June 30,
1997. Summarized financial information concerning the industry segments in which
the Company operated for the periods ended December 31, 1998, December 31, 1997,
