EASYRIDERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.      GENERAL BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        Easyriders, Inc. (Easyriders or the Company) was incorporated in the
        State of Delaware on May 13, 1998, and for financial reporting purposes
        is the successor to Newriders, Inc. On September 23, 1998, Easyriders,
        Inc. consummated a series of transactions (collectively, the
        Reorganization), including the following: (i) the merger of a subsidiary
        of Easyriders with and into Newriders, Inc. (Newriders) (the Merger)
        upon which the shareholders of Newriders exchanged their stock on a 2-
        for-1 basis for Easyriders, Inc. common stock; (ii) the acquisition by
        Easyriders of all of the outstanding common stock of Paisano
        Publications, Inc. (Paisano Publications), a California corporation, and
        certain affiliated corporations (collectively, the Paisano Companies);
        and (iii) the acquisition by Easyriders of all of the outstanding
        membership interests of M&B Restaurants, L.C. (El Paso), a Texas limited
        liability company.

        As a result of the merger, the Newriders common stock was exchanged for
        Easyriders common stock on the basis of one share of Easyriders common
        stock for each two shares of Newriders common stock, and the
        stockholders of Newriders immediately prior to the merger became
        stockholders of Easyriders. The merger was accounted for as a
        combination of entities under common control, similar to a pooling of
        interest. Therefore, the historical financial statements represent the
        combined financial statements of Easyriders and Newriders. The
        acquisitions of the Paisano Companies and El Paso were accounted for as
        a purchase.

        The Paisano Companies consist of Paisano Publications; Easyriders of
        Columbus, Inc., an Ohio corporation; Easyriders Franchising, Inc., a
        California corporation; Teresi, Inc. (DBA Easyriders Events, Inc.), a
        California corporation; Bros Club, Inc., a California corporation and
        Associated Rodeo Riders on Wheels, a California corporation; Paisano
        Publications publishes 11 special-interest magazines directed to
        motorcycle, hot-rod, and tattoo enthusiasts. Other Paisano Companies
        market a line of apparel and other products designed to appeal to
        motorcycle, hot-rod, and tattoo enthusiasts. Through the end of 1999
        Easyriders Franchising had established franchise stores that sold
        Easyriders apparel, customized new and used American-made motorcycles,
        and motorcycle accessories. Subsequently, all but 2 franchisees signed
        agreements converting their franchise arrangement to a licensing
        arrangement and the operations of Easyriders Franchising were assumed by
        Easyriders Licensing, Inc., a California corporation, and a wholly-owned
        subsidiary of Newriders. Currently, there are 41 licensed stores and 2
        retail stores still operating as franchises.

        El Paso is a Texas limited liability company, which owns and operates
        five barbecue and smoked meat restaurants, four of which are located in
        Arizona and one of which is located in Oklahoma. The restaurants are

EASYRIDERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 (unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Basis of presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated
        financial statements of Easyriders, Inc. for the three and nine month
        periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, reflect all
        adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which, in the
        opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the
        results for the interim periods presented. These financial statements
        have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
        Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
        the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
        principles for complete financial statements.

        These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
        Company's annual audited financial statements for the year ended
        December 31, 1999.

        Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September
        30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
        expected for the full year ending December 31, 2000.

        Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999
        financial statements in order to conform them to the 2000 presentation.

2.      LONG-TERM DEBT

        Debt Covenant Amendment - At the time of the Reorganization, Easyriders
        and Paisano Publications entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase
        Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Nomura Holding America Inc.
        ("Nomura" or "Lender"), pursuant to which Nomura agreed, subject to the
        satisfaction of certain terms and conditions, to lend Paisano
        Publications up to $22,000,000 (the "Nomura Indebtedness").

        On April 12, 2000, Nomura agreed to waive defaults under the Credit
        Agreement relating to maximum capital expenditures, maximum leverage
        ratios, minimum consolidated EBITDA, minimum consolidated net worth,
        minimum consolidated working capital and minimum interest coverage
        ratios, pursuant to a Second Amendment and Waiver Under Note and Warrant
        Purchase Agreement and Second Amendment to Warrant. In addition, Nomura
        agreed to amend the Credit Agreement in order to relax covenants for the
        2000 calendar year relating to the maintenance of required levels of net
        worth and EBITDA, maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage
        ratios. In consideration of the foregoing waivers and amendments, the
        Company agreed to reduce the exercise price on warrants to purchase
        355,920 shares of Easyriders Common Stock issued to Nomura under the
        Credit Agreement, from $1.625 to "market price," as determined by a
        formula set forth in the Second Amendment to Warrant. The formula
        exercise price was adjusted down to $0.625 per share during the quarter
        ended June 30, 2000, and was adjusted down to $0.50 per share during the
        quarter ended September 30, 2000. The Company has recorded interest
        expense of $8,104 for the quarter in the accompanying financial
        statements as a result of the revaluation of these warrants.

        Assumption of the Siena Loan - In October 1999, Paisano Publications
        issued a $275,000 increasing rate secured promissory note to an
        investment partnership, Siena Capital Partners, L.P. This loan (the
        "Siena Loan") is subordinate to the Nomura Indebtedness. The loan bears
        interest at a rate of 20% per annum (increasing by 1% monthly beginning
        April 14, 2000), and is due and

       payable with accrued interest on October 14, 2000. Warrants to purchase
       100,000 shares of the Common Stock of the Company were issued with an
       exercise price of $0.01 per share. If the Siena Loan has been paid off in
       its entirety by April 13, 2000, the warrants become null and void. In
       addition, if the balance is not paid in full by July 13, 2000, the
       Company must issue warrants to purchase an additional 300,000 shares of
       the common stock of the Company, and if the balance is not paid in full
       by October 13, 2000, the Company must issue warrants to purchase an
       additional 100,000 shares of the common stock of the Company. Thereafter,
       until the loan is paid in full, the Company must issue warrants to
       purchase 150,000 shares of the common stock of the Company on the 13th
       day of each month.

       As of April 13, 2000, the Company did not possess the resources to pay
       off the Siena Loan. However, John Martin and Joseph Teresi were granted a
       right of first refusal in connection with any assignment of the Siena
       Loan. Based on this right, the Company pursued negotiations with Mr.
       Teresi and Mr. Martin concerning their assumption of the Siena Loan upon
       terms more favorable to the Company. These negotiations were successful
       and on April 13, 2000, Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi each paid to Siena the
       sum of $137,500 and assumed the position of Siena with respect to the
       Siena Loan. Concurrently, the first 100,000 warrants vested and the fair
       value of the warrants, aggregating $92,750, was recorded as interest
       expense. In addition, Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi agreed to make the
       following modifications to the Siena Loan terms: (i) the interest rate
       was reduced from 20% per annum to 13% per annum, and (ii) provided the
       Siena Loan is paid off by December 31, 2000, twenty percent (20%) of all
       warrants vested by and through such date will be surrendered.

       As of July 13, 2000, the Company did not possess the resources to pay off
       the Siena Loan. As a result, as provided under the modified terms, an
       additional 150,000 warrants vested to each of Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi
       and the fair value of the warrants, aggregating $165,750, has been
       recorded as interest expense. (See Footnote 8 - Subsequent Events).

3.     LONG-TERM LIABILITIES

       Licensing of Easyriders Events - In March 2000, Easyriders entered into a
       long-term licensing agreement with a third party, Action Promotions, Inc.
       ("API") pursuant to which API has been granted the exclusive right to
       produce and manage events and to sell event-specific merchandise under
       the Easyriders brand, in exchange for a commitment to make an advance
       purchase of merchandise and to pay certain guaranteed and percentage-
       based royalties. In connection with this transaction, the Company has
       recorded a $1.5 million liability (of which $0.2 million is classified as
       short-term and $1.3 million is classified as long-term) which represents
       the Company's obligation to provide Easyriders branded merchandise over a
       period of approximately eight years.

4.     STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

       Related-Party Stock Issuances - On February 9, 2000, the Company sold to
       two directors of the Company 493,827 shares each of common stock of the
       Company for the sum of $250,000 each. The number of shares issued was
       calculated as 75% of the average closing price of the common stock, with
       average closing price being defined as the average of the last recorded
       sale price of the common stock on the ten consecutive trading days ending
       on and including February 2, 2000. In

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   Siena loan - As of October 13, 2000, the Company did not possess the
   resources to pay off the Siena Loan. As such, warrants to purchase an
   additional 50,000 shares of the common stock of the Company were issued to
   each of Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi. The fair value of the warrants,
   aggregating $30,250, will be recorded as interest expense.

   Sale of El Paso Bar-B-Que - On August 12, 2000, the Company's Board of
   Directors approved the execution of a letter of intent with Culinary
   Holdings, Inc. to sell all of the assets of the El Paso Bar-B-Que Company,
   subject to the consumation of a definitive agreement. On October 5, 2000, the
   Company closed the transaction, selling all interests in El Paso Bar-B-Que
   Company to a newly formed subsidiary of Culinary Holdings, Inc. for a
   combination of cash in the amount of $4,000,000 and the assumption of
   liabilities in the amount of approximately $6,700,000. In accordance with the
   terms of the sale transaction, the Company forgave a net intercompany
   receivable of $782,753. In addition, Culinary Holdings assumed $1,000,000 of
   convertible debentures held by a director of the Company, who thereupon
   released the Company from all obligation in connection therewith.

   Culinary Holdings is a restaurant development and management company of which
   the Company's chairman, John Martin, is a controlling shareholder and also
   serves as Chairman of the Board. The sale to Culinary Holdings was approved
   by disinterested directors only after an extensive marketing effort
   demonstrated that Culinary was offering the highest price and best terms for
   the proposed transaction, and only after the Company had obtained from
   Imperial Capital, LLC of Beverly Hills, California, a formal opinion as to
   the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the proposed transaction.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
            Results of Operations.

         Management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and
the results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto.

Overview

         Easyriders was organized under the laws of the state of Delaware on May
13, 1998. Easyriders currently derives substantially all of its revenues from
the operations of Paisano Publications and El Paso.

         On September 23, 1998, Easyriders consummated a series of transactions
(the "Reorganization") comprising the following: (a) the acquisition by
Easyriders from Joseph Teresi of all of the outstanding common stock of Paisano
Publications and certain affiliated corporations (the "Paisano Companies"),
engaged at the time in (i) publishing special-interest magazines relating
primarily to American-made "V-Twin" motorcycles and tattoo art, (ii) selling
branded motorcycle apparel and accessories through a mail-order catalogue,
events and franchise stores, (iii) producing motorcycle and tattoo-related
events, and franchising retail stores to market its branded motorcycle apparel
and accessories; (b) the acquisition by Easyriders of all of the outstanding
membership interests of El Paso, which at the time was engaged in the operation
of four restaurants under the name "El Paso Bar-B-Que"; and (c) the merger (the
"Merger") of a subsidiary of Easyriders with and into Newriders, Inc., a Nevada
corporation ("Newriders").

         As a result of the Merger (i) each two shares of Newriders common
stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Newriders Common Stock") were exchanged
for one share of Easyriders common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Easyriders
Common Stock"), and the shareholders of Newriders immediately prior to the
Merger became stockholders of Easyriders, (ii) all of the outstanding options,
warrants and other convertible securities exercisable for or convertible into
Newriders Common Stock were exchanged for the right to purchase or convert into
one-half the number of shares of Easyriders Common Stock at an exercise price or
conversion ratio per share equal to two times the exercise price or conversion
ratio provided for in the stock option, warrant or other agreements evidencing
such options, warrants or other convertible securities, and (iii) Newriders, the
Paisano Companies and El Paso became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Easyriders.
The Merger was accounted for as a combination of entities under common control,
similar to a pooling of interest. Therefore, the historical financial statements
represent the combined financial statements of the Company and Newriders. The
acquisitions of the Paisano Companies and El Paso were accounted for as a
purchase.

         The acquisition of the Paisano Companies had, and will continue to
have, a material impact on the Company's financial statements; accordingly,
current and future financial statements may not be directly comparable to the
Company's historical financial statements. In future periods, the amortization
of goodwill will significantly effect the Company's financial statements.

Use of EBITDA

         The following comparative discussion of the results of operations and
financial condition of the Company includes, among other factors, an analysis of
changes in the operating income of the business segments before interest
expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") in order to eliminate
the effect on the operating performance of the Paisano Companies and El Paso of
significant amounts of amortization of intangible assets and interest expense
recognized through the Reorganization. Further, the Company has added back non-
cash charges relating to stock issuance expenses to derive an adjusted EBITDA
("Adjusted EBITDA"). Financial analysts generally consider EBITDA to be an
important measure of comparative operating performance for the businesses of the
Company and its subsidiaries, and when used in comparison to debt levels or the
coverage of interest expense as a measure of liquidity. However, EBITDA should
be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, operating income, net
income, cash flow and other measures of financial performance and liquidity
reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Also, EBITDA, as calculated by the Company, may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Results of Operations of Easyriders Inc. and subsidiaries

     During the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company experienced a
net loss in the amount of $1,822,428, reflecting a loss decrease of $1,484,777,
or 45%, when compared with the net loss of $3,307,205 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
was $8,687,378, reflecting a loss decrease of $108,947 or 1%, when compared with
the net loss of $8,796,326 for the same period in the prior year. The net loss
decrease for the three month period can be substantially attributed to a
$1,100,000 adjustment to reduce the estimated loss on disposal of the
discontinued operations, an improvement in gross margin of $221,673 and a
$1,029,379 reduction in operating expenses, offset by a $312,441 increase in
interest and other expenses and a $553,834 increase in loss from discontinued
operations. The net loss decrease for the nine month period can be attributed to
a $1,226,713 improvement in gross margin and a $1,301,921 reduction in operating
expenses, offset by a $609,580 increase in interest and other expenses, a
$1,000,000 estimated loss on disposal of the discontinued operations and a
$810,107 increase in loss from discontinued operations. Net loss from continuing
operations improved $938,611, or 32%, for the three month periods, and
$1,919,054, or 22%, for the nine month periods.

     The Company's net loss per share improved $0.09 per share, or 60%, to $0.06
per share for the three months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to the net
loss of $0.15 per share for the three months ended September 30, 1999. For the
nine month periods, the Company's net loss per share improved $0.08 per share,
or 20%, to $0.33 per share from $0.41 per share. Net loss per share from
continuing operations improved $0.06 per share, or 46%, for the three month
periods, and $0.15 per share, or 37%, for the nine month periods.

     The Company experienced positive EBITDA in the amount of $351,658 and
negative EBITDA in the amount of $1,646,506 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2000, respectively, compared with negative EBITDA of $1,601,579
and $3,762,173 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999,
reflecting an improvement in EBITDA of $1,953,237, or 122%, for the three month
periods, and an improvement in EBITDA of $2,115,667, or 56%, for the nine month
periods. Adjusted EBITDA reflects the add-back of non-cash charges related to
stock issuance expenses of $6,721 and $202,305 for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2000, respectively, and $100,000 and $700,000 for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1999, respectively. For the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2000, the Company had adjusted EBITDA of $358,379 and
adjusted negative EBITDA of $1,444,201, respectively, compared with adjusted
negative EBITDA of $1,501,579 and $3,062,173 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1999, reflecting improvements in adjusted EBITDA of $1,859,958, or
124%, for the three month periods, and $1,617,972, or 53%, for the nine month
periods. Negative EBITDA from continuing operations was $267,432 and $1,021,587
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively, compared
with negative EBITDA from continuing operations of $1,492,654 and $4,471,316 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, reflecting an improvement in
EBITDA of $1,225,222, or 82%, for the three month periods, and an improvement in
EBITDA of $3,449,729, or 77%, for the nine month periods.

Results of Operations: Paisano Companies

     The operating results of the Company for both the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999 include the results for the
Paisano Companies.

     The Paisano Companies' publishing segment includes sales generated from
subscription sales, newsstand sales and advertising sales related to the
Companies' eleven special interest magazines. The related cost of sales includes
direct costs related to the sales consisting primarily of printing, paper,
publication and distribution costs. The goods and services segment includes
sales generated from the

                                       20

sale of apparel and other products through its mail order catalogs, one retail
store, and franchise/license programs. The related cost of sales includes the
costs of the apparel and other products. The franchising/licensing segment
includes sales generated through royalties and franchise fees charged to the
operating franchisees/licensees. There is no related cost of sales. The Paisano
Companies' other segments primarily includes events which generate substantially
all of their revenues from the sale of tickets to motorcycle rodeos, motorcycle
shows, and tattoo shows. Cost of sales for the other segments represent direct
costs of promoting the events. As discussed in Footnote 3 - Long-Term
Liabilities, in March, 2000, the Company licensed its rights to produce and
manage these events.

     The Paisano Companies' total sales decreased $2,921,831, or 32%, from
$9,269,295 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $6,347,464 for the
same three months in 2000. Total sales for the nine month periods decreased
$3,455,085, or 14%, from $25,487,141 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 to $22,032,056 for the same nine months in 2000. These decreases can be
substantially attributed to a combination of 1) reduced revenues from Easyriders
of Columbus of $403,407 and $790,004 for the three and nine month periods,
respectively, as a result of this store being sold in April 2000, 2) reduced
revenues from Easyriders Events of $1,623,967 and $1,474,617 for the three and
nine month periods, respectively, as a result of a restructuring in March 2000
under which a third party licensed the rights to produce and manage events and
to sell event-specific merchandise, and 3) reduced revenues from Paisano
Publications of $1,056,656 and $1,935,101 for the three and nine month periods,
respectively, as a result of the reduction in frequency in American Rodder
magazine, the cessation of the Metal Hammer magazine, and the outsourcing of the
Bros Club division.

     The Paisano Companies' gross margin increased $221,673, or 29%, from
$775,684 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, to $997,357 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000. For the nine month periods, gross margin
increased $1,226,713, or 47%, from $2,631,537 in 1999 to $3,858,250 in 2000. As
a percentage of sales, gross margin for the Paisano Companies increased from 8%
to 16% for the three month periods, and from 10% to 18% for the nine month
periods. The increase in gross margin for both the three and nine month periods
can be attributed to the variable costs saved as a result of the decreases in
sales for these periods, and to the reduction in payroll costs related to the
events division which was outsourced through a licensing agreement in March
2000.

     The Paisano Companies' loss from operations decreased $1,184,638, or 84%,
from $1,405,337 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, to $220,699 for
the three months ended September 30, 2000. The Paisano Companies' loss from
operations decreased $2,558,069, or 76%, from $3,354,681 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, to $796,612 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000. The decrease for the three month periods can be attributed to a decrease
in operating expenses of $1,464,266 offset by a decrease in gross margin of
$279,628. The decrease for the nine month periods can be attributed to a
decrease in operating expenses of $2,396,834 coupled with an increase in gross
margin of $161,235. The decrease in operating expenses for both the three and
nine month periods can be attributed to the reduction in legal and professional
expenses, which were unusually high in 1999 as a result of pending litigation
which was settled in the first quarter of 2000.

     Expenses of the Paisano Companies not allocated to any segment amount to
$5,449 and $925,057 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, and
$1,077,088 and $2,965,463 for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999. The allocated expenses include payroll, promotion, and other general and
administrative expenses specifically attributable to the business segments. The
unallocated expenses represent legal and professional fees and accelerated
amortization of goodwill related to the Company's Columbus retail operations
which are not specifically attributable to a business segment.

                                       21

     Payroll and related benefits for the Paisano Companies decreased $126,586,
or 31%, from $404,742 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to $278,156 for
the same quarter in 2000, and decreased $423,102, or 32%, from $1,328,818 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $905,716 for the same nine months in
2000. These decreases are the result of efforts to reduce costs by decreasing
staff size. Depreciation and amortization for the quarters ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 totaled $545,255 and $555,074, respectively, and for the nine
month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 totaled $2,545,163 and
$1,634,235, respectively, of which $460,392 and $2,263,226 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively, and $469,740 and $1,408,736
for the three and nine months ended in the prior year, respectively, relates to
the amortization of the $56,368,752 in goodwill created out of the Paisano
Companies' acquisition by the Company. In addition, the amortization for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 includes $866,470 of accelerated
amortization of the goodwill attributed to Easyriders of Columbus, as such store
was sold effective April 30, 2000.

     Interest expense for the Paisano Companies increased $197,441, or 34%, from
$588,264 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to $785,705 for the quarter
ended September 30, 2000. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1999
and 2000, interest expense increased $461,539, or 27%, from $1,734,013 to
$2,195,552, respectively. These increases are primarily attributable to
increases in the prime rate, and additional borrowings under the Revolving Loan.

     The net loss for the Paisano Companies decreased $1,052,433, or 51%, from
$2,052,576 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $1,000,143 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000. The net loss for the nine month periods
decreased $1,437,035, or 27%, from $5,243,555 to $3,806,520. The decrease in the
net losses for the both the three and nine month periods can be attributed to
the reduction in legal and professional fees, combined with the reduction in
expenses incurred by the Events division as a result of the licensing of the
rights to conduct the events to a third party in March 2000, and offset by the
net loss resulting from the sale of Columbus and the increase in interest
expense. EBITDA for the three month periods improved by $1,223,712, from a
negative EBITDA of $892,419 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to an
EBITDA of $331,293 for the three months ended September 30, 2000. EBITDA for the
nine month periods improved by $2,747,059 from a negative EBITDA of $1,806,588
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to an EBITDA of $940,471 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000.

     The principal raw material used in publishing operations of the Paisano
Companies is paper. Paper costs represented approximately 18% and 15% of Paisano
Publications' production, selling and other direct costs for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and approximately 18% and 16%
for the nine months then ended. Certain commodity grades of paper have shown
considerable price volatility over the last decade. There can be no assurance
that future fluctuations in paper prices will not have a material adverse effect
on the Paisano Companies' results of operations or financial condition.

     The profitability of the Paisano Companies' publishing segment is also
affected by the cost of postage and could be materially adversely affected if
there is an increase in postal rates. No assurance can be given that the
publishing segment can recoup paper or postal cost increases by passing them
through to its advertisers and readers. In addition, future fluctuations in
paper prices and/or postal rates could have an effect on the results of
operations and financial condition of the publishing segments.

Discontinued Operations: El Paso

     The operating results of the Company do not include the results of El Paso
Bar-B-Que Company as this subsidiary has been segregated and treated as
discontinued operations.

                                       22
<PAGE>

         E1 Paso's sales from its five El Paso Bar-B-Que Restaurants increased
$1,461,836, or 62%, from $2,374,637 for the three months ended September 30,
1999 to $3,836,473 for the three months ended September 30, 2000. For the nine
month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 2000, sales increased $2,500,670, or
31%, from $8,205,768 to $10,706,438. The increase in sales for both the three
and nine month periods can be attributed to the relocation of the Tulsa store to
a bigger facility, increased revenues generated by the catering division as a
result of increased efforts to promote this portion of the business, an increase
in the menu prices, and revenues generated by the new Mesa, Arizona store which
opened its doors in May 2000. Cost of sales, which includes food and direct
payroll costs related to the operations of the restaurants, increased $912,771,
or 56%, from $1,621,445 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to
$2,534,216 for the same three months in 2000. For the nine month periods, cost
of sales increased $1,617,131, or 31%, from $5,191,846 to $6,808,977. Cost of
sales as a percentage of sales decreased from 68% to 66% for the three month
periods, and increased from 63% to 64% for the nine month periods. The decrease
for the three months period can be attributed to increased menu prices, while
the increase for the nine month periods is the result of rising food costs in
excess of increased menu prices. Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased
slightly from 32% to 34% for the three month periods ended September 30, 1999
and 2000, and decreased slightly from 37% to 36% for the nine month periods then
ended. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased from 45% to 54% for
the three month periods, and from 35% to 40% for the nine month periods. Loss
from operations increased $468,242, or 148%, for the three month periods, and
$535,392, or 476%, for the nine month periods. Interest expense associated with
debt used to finance the restaurants and capital leases was $63,112 and $186,065
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and $147,009 and $388,660
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000. The net loss before the
loss on disposal increased $553,834, or 146%, from $378,769 for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 to $932,603 for the three months ended September 30,
2000. For the nine month periods, the net loss before the loss on disposal
increased a substantial $810,107, from $1,430 to $811,537. EBITDA improved from
a negative $108,925 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $619,090
for the same three months in 2000, while EBITDA for the nine month periods
worsened from $709,143 for the nine months ended September 20, 1999 to a
negative $624,919 for the same period in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's primary cash requirements are to fund the Company's
operating costs (primarily payroll and related expenses) and working capital
needs (primarily accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses and debt
service). On September 30, 2000, the Company had negative working capital of
$3.0 million due primarily to deferred subscription and advertising income of
$3.8 million.

         Cash used in operating activities from continuing operations during the
nine month period ended September 30, 2000 totaled approximately $1.0 million.
The operating loss of $6.9 million was offset by several non-cash charges
including $2.6 million for depreciation and amortization, $0.2 million for stock
issuance expenses, $0.2 million for expenses settled with common stock, $0.2
million of amortization of debt issuance costs, $0.3 million of non-cash
interest expense, and $0.6 million for losses on the sale of assets. Cash of
$1.8 million was provided by changes in operating accounts.

         Upon its acquisition by the Company, Paisano Publications obtained an
aggregate of $22,000,000 in Nomura Indebtedness. This financing was comprised of
$17,000,000 of senior term loans (the "Term Loans") and $5,000,000 of revolving
loans (the "Revolving Loans"). The proceeds from the Term Loans plus $3,500,000
of the Revolving Loans were used to repay certain promissory notes issued to the
shareholder of the Paisano Companies in conjunction with the Paisano Acquisition
and to pay certain acquisition expenses. To the extent that Paisano Publications
is in compliance with the terms of the Nomura Indebtedness, any unused portion
of the Revolving Loans may be used by Paisano Publications for working capital
purposes. Available borrowings under the Revolving Loans are subject to the

                                       23
<PAGE>

approval of the Lender. On April 12, 2000, the Lender waived the defaults that
existed under the Nomura Indebtedness as of December 31, 1999. As a result, the
Company was in compliance with the terms of the Nomura Indebtedness as of
December 31, 1999, and available borrowings were no longer subject to the
approval of the Lender. At September 30, 2000, there were no available
borrowings under the Revolving Loans.

         The Nomura Indebtedness is guaranteed (the "Guarantees") by the Company
and the Paisano Companies, other than Paisano Publications (the "Guarantors").
The Nomura Indebtedness will mature on September 23, 2001, and bears interest at
an annual rate equal to the prime rate of the Lender from time to time plus
1.85%, payable monthly. The Nomura Indebtedness and the Guarantees are secured
by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the tangible and
intangible assets (owned or hereafter acquired) of the Company and the Paisano
Companies, including all of the capital stock or equity interests of the Paisano
Companies and Newriders. The Nomura Indebtedness and the Guarantees constitute
the sole senior secured indebtedness of Paisano Publications and Guarantors and
rank senior to all other indebtedness of Paisano Publications and the
Guarantors. With respect to the September 23, 2001 maturity, the Company has
begun to explore alternative financing sources and believes it will be able to
negotiate with Nomura a short-term extension of the maturity date sufficient to
allow the Company to refinance the Nomura Indebtedness with other lenders,
investors and/or joint venture partners. However, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in its efforts to secure such financing .

         At the end of each one-month period in which the Term Loans are
outstanding, Paisano Publications is required to prepay the Term Loans in an
aggregate principal amount equal to 35% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined in the
Credit Agreement, for such period, to the extent such Excess Cash Flow is
achieved. Because this prepayment is dependent upon Excess Cash Flow, which is
dependent on uncertain future events, no amounts have been classified as current
liabilities at September 30, 2000.

         Subject to certain limitations on dividends, and provided that no event
of default has occurred, Paisano Publications may advance funds to the Company
monthly, limited to the lessor of $100,000 or 35% of the Excess Cash Flow for
the preceding monthly period. As of September 30, 2000, Paisano Publications has
been able to provide $294,994 of funding to the Company based on Paisano's
attainment of Excess Cash Flow. The inability of Paisano Publications to provide
funds to the Company can adversely impact the ability of the Company to repay
certain expenses of the Company.

         Because the Nomura Indebtedness includes restrictions on the ability of
the Paisano Companies to transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash
dividends, loans or advances, the net assets of the Paisano Companies are
considered to be restricted. The restricted net assets of the Paisano Companies
on September 30, 2000 total $26,091,743.

         The Nomura Indebtedness contains numerous operating and financial
covenants, including but not limited to, payment of dividends, limitations on
indebtedness and the maintenance of minimum net worth, minimum working capital,
interest coverage ratios and the achievement of cash flow measures. As of
September 30, 2000, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial
covenants. Between September 22 and November 3, 2000, Nomura notified the
Company that certain activities undertaken by the Company were deemed by Nomura
not to be in compliance with certain of the operating covenants. As a
consequence, representatitves of the Company and Nomura are now in active
negotiations concerning resolution of these issues. In connection therewith, it
is anticipated that the Company will seek to modify certain operating and
financial covenants, and obtain waivers as to prior actions. No assurance can be
given that a satisfactory resolution will be obtained. Any non-compliance could
restrict the Company's business activities, and could expose the Company to
materially adverse consequences if any such defaults are not resolved, by reason
of the remedies available to Nomura under the loan

                                       24
<PAGE>

documents pertaining to the Nomura Indebtedness, including but not limited to,
the foreclosure on the Company's assets, which are provided as collateral.

         In connection with the Paisano Acquisition, the Company issued
Contributor Notes in the aggregate amount of $13,000,000 to Joseph Teresi, the
sole shareholder of the Paisano Companies prior to the Paisano Acquisition. The
Contributor Notes consisted of a subordinated promissory note in the amount of
$5,000,000, a limited recourse subordinated promissory note in the amount of
$5,000,000 secured by the Martin Mirror Note (as defined in the applicable
instruments) and a short-term subordinated promissory note in the amount of
$3,000,000. The first two notes (the "Subordinated Notes") bear interest at an
annual rate that escalates from 6% to 10% and may be extended for an additional
five years. The remaining $3,000,000 (the "Short Term Note") was initially
issued as a 90 day note that bears interest at an annual rate of 10%. By mutual
agreement, the maturity on the Short Term Note was subsequently extended to
March 31, 2000. As of April 1, 2000, the Company was in default in repayment of
the $3,000,000 Short Term Note, and for interest of $242,500 on the Subordinated
Notes. On April 3, 2000, Joseph Teresi waived the default which existed on that
date with respect to the non-payment of interest on the $3,000,000 Short Term
Note. In addition, Mr. Teresi agreed that between March 31, 2000 and March 31,
2002 he would not make any claim of default in connection with the non-payment
of principal under the $3,000,000 Short Term Note, and that between March 31,
2000 and March 31, 2001, he would not make any claim of default for interest
which was due as of March 31, 2000 or which would accrue between March 31, 2000
and March 31, 2001. Concurrently, on April 3, 2000 the then remaining principal
and interest balance on the subordinated promissory note was exchanged for
3,356,710 shares of Easyriders, Inc. Common Stock issued to Mr. Teresi.

         In October 1999, Paisano Publications issued a $275,000 increasing rate
secured promissory note to an investment partnership, Siena Capital Partners,
L.P. This loan (the "Siena Loan") is subordinate to the Nomura Indebtedness. The
loan bears interest at a rate of 20% per annum (increasing by 1% monthly
beginning April 14, 2000), and is due and payable with accrued interest on
October 14, 2000. Warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Common Stock of the
Company were issued with an exercise price of $0.01 per share. If the Siena Loan
has been paid off in its entirety by April 13, 2000, the warrants become null
and void. In addition, if the balance is not paid in full by July 13, 2000, the
Company must issue warrants to purchase an additional 300,000 shares of the
Common Stock of the Company, and if the balance is not paid in full by October
13, 2000, the Company must issue warrants to purchase an additional 100,000
shares of the Common Stock of the Company. Thereafter, until the loan is paid
off in full, the Company must issue warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the
Common Stock of the Company on the 13th day of each month.

         As of April 13, 2000 the Company did not possess the resources to pay
off the Siena Loan. However, John Martin and Joseph Teresi were granted a right
of first refusal in connection with any assignment of the Siena Loan. Based on
this right, the Company pursued negotiations with Mr. Teresi and Mr. Martin
concerning their assumption of the Siena Loan upon terms more favorable to the
Company. These negotiations were successful and on April 13, 2000, Mr. Martin
and Mr. Teresi each paid to Siena the sum of $137,500 and assumed the position
of Siena with respect to the Siena Loan. Concurrently, the first 100,000
warrants vested, and Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi agreed to make the following
modifications to the Siena Loan terms:

 .    The interest rate will be reduced from 20% per annum to 13% per annum.

 .    Provided the Siena Loan is paid off by December 31, 2000, twenty percent
     (20%) of all warrants vested by and through such date will be surrendered.

                                       25
<PAGE>

         As of July 13, 2000 the Company did not possess the resources to pay
off the Siena Loan. As a result, as provided under the modified terms, an
additional 150,000 warrants vested to each of Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi. In
addition, as of October 13, 2000 the Company did not possess the resources to
pay off the Siena Loan and, as a result, an additional 50,000 000 warrants
vested to each of Mr. Martin and Mr. Teresi.

         On October 5, 2000, the Company sold all interests in El Paso Bar-B-Que
Company to a newly formed subsidiary of Culinary Holdings, Inc. for a
combination of cash in the amount of $4,000,000 and the assumption of
liabilities in the amount of approximately $6,700,000. In accordance with the
terms of the sale transaction, the Company forgave a net intercompany receivable
of $782,753. In addition, Culinary Holdings assumed $1,000,000 of convertible
debentures held by a director of the Company, who thereupon released the Company
from all obligation in connection therewith.

         While the Company secured a $4 million cash infusion through the sale
of El Paso Bar-B-Que Company, it continues in its attempts to secure additional
cash infusions through the consummation of certain other business transactions.
The Company is also evaluating the issuance of additional debt or equity
securities. While the Company believes that such efforts, together with ongoing
operations, will enable the Company to meet its anticipated cash needs for the
next 12 months (excluding the refinancing of the Nomura Indebtedness), there can
be no assurance that this will be the case, as projections of future cash needs
and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty. In the event that the
Company is unsuccessful in its efforts to raise capital beyond that which is
projected to be realized from current operations, the Company will not be able
to meet its liquidity obligations.

Forward-Looking Information and Certain Factors

         Certain statements in this Form 10-Q and in future filings by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press
releases, and in oral statements made by or with the approval of an authorized
executive officer constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act"). The
forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in such
forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, without
limitation, risks associated with future capital needs, management of growth,
availability of adequate financing, integration of business operations,
concentration of stock ownership, restrictions imposed on the Company by the
Lender, the magazine publishing and restaurant business, paper, pork and other
raw material prices and other factors discussed herein, in the Company's
Prospectus/Proxy Statement on Form S-4 dated September 8, 1998 and other filings
submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, was issued in June
1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.
SFAS No. 133 was initially effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. In July 1999, SFAS No. 137, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of FASB Statement No. 133, was issued which delays the effective date of SFAS
No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company does not
believe that the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on
its financial position or results of operations.

         In December 1999, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
No. 101, Revenue

                                       26
<PAGE>

Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB No. 101 summarizes the SEC staff's
views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue
recognition in financial statements. The Company does not expect its
implementation will have an effect on its revenue recognition policy.

         In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Interpretation No. 44 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 Accounting
for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, which, among other
things, addressed accounting consequences of a modification that reduces the
exercise price of a fixed stock option award (otherwise known as repricing). If
the exercise price of a fixed stock option award is reduced, the award must be
accounted for as variable stock option plan from the date of the modification to
the date the award is exercised, is forfeited, or expires unexercised. The
exercise price of an option award has been reduced if the fair value of the
consideration required to be paid by the grantee upon exercise is less than or
potentially less than the fair value of the consideration that was required to
be paid pursuant to the award's original terms. The requirements about
modifications to fixed stock option awards that directly or indirectly reduce
the exercise price of an award apply to modifications made after December 15,
1998, and will be applied prospectively as of July 1, 2000. The adoption of this
interpretation did not impact the Company's financial statements.



Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

         The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including paper price
volatility, postage and changes in interest rates affecting the cost of its
debt.

Paper Price Volatility

         A primary component of the Company's cost of revenues in the magazine
publishing segment is the cost of paper. Consequently, increases in paper prices
can adversely impact the Company results of operations.

Interest Rates

         The Company is subject to certain interest rate risk related to the
Term Loans. The Term Loans mature on September 23, 2001 and bear interest at an
annual rate equal to the prime rate of the Lendor plus 1.85% payable monthly.
The interest rate on the balance of $21,222,770 outstanding on September 30,
2000 was 11.35 %. An increase in interest rates of 1% would result in an
increase in interest expense of approximately $212,000 per annum.

also named as a defendant James E. Salven, Trustee in Bankruptcy in connection
with the Pierce Action, previously disclosed by the Company.

         The Hatcher Action alleged wrongful conduct on the part of the named
defendants in connection with Mr. Hatcher's past and current relationship with
Easyriders and Newriders, including: (a) his role and ownership position in
Newriders prior to the Reorganization, (b) his role and participation in the
Reorganization, (c) his acquisition of shares of Easyriders as a consequence of
the Reorganization, (d) transactions involving the shares held by Mr. Hatcher in
Newriders and Easyriders, (e) the Company's Events business and his role in the
same, (f) the Company's event merchandise business and Mr. Hatcher's role in the
same, (g) the use and possession by Mr. Hatcher of property and vehicles used in
connection with the Events and event merchandise business of the Company, (h)
the acquisition by Mr. Hatcher and Mr. Stafford of franchises to operate retail
stores under the "Easyriders" name pursuant to various written agreements, and
(i) the termination of such franchise agreements by the Company in April, 2000.

         The complaint asserted wrongful conduct by defendants in connection
with the foregoing under a wide range of legal theories, including violations of
the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the California
Corporations Code, Federal Trade Commission Disclosure Rules, the California
Franchise Investment Law Laws and the Federal RICO statute (18 U.S.C. sections
1961-1968); breach of fiduciary responsibilities; fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress,
interference with contracts and business relations, unfair competition and
defamation. Certain of the causes of action were presented as derivative claims,
brought on behalf of Easyriders and/or Newriders against one or more individual
defendants. The action sought general and compensatory damages in amounts to be
proven at the time of trial, contract damages of $450,000, punitive damages,
injunctive and declaratory relief, and the appointment of a receiver.

         On July 31, 2000, the US District Court in Los Angeles issued an order
dismissing the Hatcher Action in its entirety, based on a motion brought by
defendants challenging the complaint as being in violation of applicable rules
requiring that complaints in Federal court set forth a "short and plain"
statement of the basis for relief, and that allegations of fraud be specific as
to all details. The order granted plaintiffs 30 days to file a new complaint,
stating that any amended complaint "must be a short, plain statement which is
concise, simple and direct in compliance with Rule 8 (a). Furthermore,
allegations of fraud, misrepresentation and securities fraud must be alleged
with particularity in compliance with Rule 9." Subsequently, Plaintiff has filed
two amended complaints which the Company has challenged for similar reasons. The
court has granted Plaintiffs until November 15, 2000 to file an amended
complaint which meets the applicable pleading requirements. If such amended
complaint is materially deficient in this regard, it is possible that the
Hatcher Action could be dismissed entirely, with finality, but there can be no
assurance that this will be the case.

                                       28

         Regardless, the Company believes it has substantial defenses to any
amended complaint plaintiffs may file in this action. Furthermore, the Company
and its officers and directors are insured under an insurance policy providing
indemnification for damages arising from securities claims and the misconduct of
its management, and has received confirmation from its insurance carrier that
the Hatcher Action is a claim covered by such policy. Accordingly, the Company
is of the view that the Hatcher Action is not likely to have a material adverse
affect on its financial operations.

         The Pierce Litigation

         The Company has previously reported on the legal action involving Rick
Pierce, a former shareholder of Newriders, including (a) the Chapter 7
bankruptcy proceeding pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Eastern
District of California, Fresno Division Case No. 98-19101-A-11, which was
commenced as an involuntary proceeding and then converted to a Chapter 11 case
with the debtor, Rick Pierce, in possession, and (b) the Company's adversary
proceeding against the Pierce Bankruptcy Estate and other parties who claim an
interest in shares of the Company acquired through various transactions with Mr.
Pierce. This action involves claims and counterclaims arising out of the
Reorganization of 1998 in which Mr. Pierce sought damages of at least $20
million.

         Based upon the previously-reported (a) settlement conference in
September, 1999 before Judge Montali, (b) the arrest and indictment of Mr.
Pierce on 29 counts of conspiracy, mail fraud and money laundering (c)
conversion of the bankruptcy proceeding from Chapter 11 to Chapter 7, (d)
dissolution of the creditor's committee, (e) appointment of a trustee to
administer the bankruptcy estate, and (f) recent discussions with the trustee,
the Company now believes it likely that the action will be settled with no
material adverse consequences to the Company. Toward this end, a settlement
agreement has been drafted and circulated, and the parties are now in the
process of resolving the remaining minor details. The Company believes this
settlement will be consummated in the near future.

         The Kaye, Scholer Litigation

         On April 19, 2000, the Company filed an action in Los Angeles County
Superior Court against the law firm of Kaye, Scholer, Fierman, Hays & Handler,
LLP ("Kaye, Scholer"), which represented Newriders, Inc. in the Reorganization
of 1998 (the "Kaye, Scholer Action"). The Kaye, Scholer Action alleges that
defendant, and the responsible attorneys individually, committed legal
malpractice, rendered negligent advice and breached attorney-client fiduciary
duties by failing to protect the Company's interests in connection with the
indemnification agreement entered into by and between Newriders, as Buyer, and
Paisano Publications, Inc., as Seller, in the Reorganization. The complaint
alleges that as a consequence of such failures, the Company was exposed to costs
in excess of $2.5 million in connection with the previously reported Steel
Horses Arbitration, and seeks recovery of such sums, and other damages. In the
action, Kaye, Scholer has filed a cross-complaint seeking recovery of unpaid
legal fees in the amount of approximately $100,000. This action is in the
discovery phase.

         The Richard Dillon Litigation

         On May 9, 2000 a complaint was filed by Richard Dillon ("Dillon")
against Easyriders in the Superior Court of Maricopa County, Arizona (the
"Dillon Action"). Dillon is a former employee of El Paso. The Action alleges
that Dillon is entitled to damages for breach of contract and as a Wage Claim
under Arizona law, arising out of an alleged promise on the part of Easyriders
to deliver shares of stock of Easyriders to Dillon. The Dillon Action seeks
contract damages of approximately $162,000, treble damages under Arizona law of
not less than $500,000 and the recovery of attorneys fees. The contract in
question arises out of the former employment of Dillon with M&B. Easyriders is
the sole named

                                       29

defendant in the Dillon Action, and disputes the claims of Dillon therein. In
this regard, the Company has filed a motion for Summary Judgment which is
scheduled to be heard in January, 2001.

         The Greg King Litigation

         On August 2, 1999 Greg King ("King") filed an action against the
Company and its subsidiary, Newriders, in Los Angeles County Superior Court (the
"King Action"), seeking damages of (a) not less than $500,000 for the alleged
breach of an oral agreement to deliver certain shares of Newriders, Inc. in
1998, and (b) approximately $100,000 for breach of an alleged oral agreement to
reimburse King for certain advances made by King on behalf of Newriders in 1998.
The King Action also seeks these damages on the basis of alleged fraud on the
part of certain officers of Newriders. On December 23, 1999, an amended
complaint was filed to name as additional defendants Leon Hatcher, Michael
Purcell and Bill Doyle, each a former officer and/or director of Newriders. The
allegations of King arise out of his employment with Newriders in Fresno,
California, and his associations with Leon Hatcher and Rick Pierce, identified
above. The Company is of the view that the King Action is without merit, and
that it has substantial defenses thereto. This matter is scheduled for trial on
February 15, 2001, with a mandatory mediation session to take place in early
December 2000.

         Other Litigation

         The Company is named as a defendant in other legal actions arising from
its normal operations. The Company anticipates that any damages or expenses it
may incur in connection with these actions, individually and collectively, will
not be material.
