             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Organization

   The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the interim periods. The interim financial information and notes
thereto should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996
audited consolidated financial statements of AMF Bowling, Inc. ("AMF Bowling")
and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") presented in AMF Bowling's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of results to
be expected for the entire year.

   The Company is principally engaged in two business segments: (i) the
ownership and operation of bowling centers, consisting of 418 U.S. bowling
centers and 123 international bowling centers in 10 countries ("Bowling
Centers"), including fifteen joint venture centers, as of June 30, 1999, and
(ii) the manufacture and sale of bowling equipment such as automatic
pinspotters, automatic scoring equipment, bowling pins, lanes, ball returns,
certain spare parts, and the resale of allied products such as bowling balls,
bags, shoes, and certain other spare parts ("Bowling Products"). The principal
markets for bowling equipment are U.S. and international bowling center
operators.

   AMF  Bowling  Worldwide,  Inc.  ("Bowling  Worldwide")  is a wholly  owned,
direct  subsidiary of AMF Group  Holdings  Inc.  ("AMF Group  Holdings").  AMF
Group Holdings is a wholly owned, direct subsidiary of AMF Bowling.  AMF Group
Holdings and AMF Bowling are holding  companies only. The principal  assets in
each are comprised of  investments in  subsidiaries.  The Company was acquired
in 1996 by an investor group led by an affiliate of Goldman,  Sachs & Co. (the
"Acquisition").

   As of June 30, 1999, the Company has acquired 263 bowling centers and
constructed two bowling centers since the Acquisition for a combined purchase
price of $498.9 million. The Company has funded its acquisitions and center
construction from internally generated cash, borrowings under the senior secured
revolving credit facility (the "Bank Facility") under the Credit Agreement (as
defined in Note 5), and issuances of AMF Bowling common stock (the "Common
Stock"). See "Note 8. Acquisitions."


Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

   The condensed consolidated results of operations of the Company have been
presented for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Certain amounts in the prior year's financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the current year presentation. All dollar amounts are in
thousands, except where otherwise indicated.

Goodwill

   As a result of the Acquisition and subsequent purchases of bowling centers
discussed in "Note 8. Acquisitions", and in accordance with the purchase method
of accounting used in all acquisitions, the Company recorded goodwill
representing the excess of the purchase price over the allocation among the
acquired assets and liabilities in accordance with estimates of fair market
value on the dates of acquisition. Goodwill is being amortized over 40 years.
Amortization expense was $5,133 and $10,274 for the three months and six months
ended June 30, 1999, and $5,017 and $10,054 for the three months and six months
ended June 30, 1998, respectively.

      NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Comprehensive Loss

   Comprehensive loss was $52,505 and $72,121 for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1999, and $39,342 and $38,574 for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1998, respectively. Accumulated other comprehensive loss
consists of the foreign currency translation adjustment on the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Share

   Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing income available
to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Options to purchase shares of Common Stock are not
included because their effect would be antidilutive. As a result, the basic and
diluted net loss per share amounts are identical.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

   Effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Company will be required
to adopt SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." The Company does not expect that adoption of this standard will
have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

   The Company's bank debt (the "Senior Debt") was incurred pursuant to Bowling
Worldwide's credit agreement, dated as of May 1, 1996, which was amended and
restated, as of November 3, 1997, in connection with AMF Bowling's initial
public offering (the "Initial Public Offering") of Common Stock in November 1997
and which has since been amended (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement
provides for (i) three senior secured term loan facilities aggregating $455.3
million (the "Term Facilities") and (ii) the Bank Facility which provides for
borrowings up to $355.0 million on a revolving basis. At June 30, 1999, amounts
outstanding under the Term Facilities and Bank Facility were $403.6 million and
$176.0 million, respectively.

                      AMF BOWLING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
      NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

   The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants, as well as
affirmative and negative covenants, constraining Bowling Worldwide. In 1998, the
Company entered into Amendment No. 1 and Waiver to the Credit Agreement that
amended certain and waived certain financial covenants of the Credit Agreement
and imposed certain restrictions on the Company's operations through December
31, 1999. In addition, for 1999, borrowings to finance acquisitions were
substantially restricted and limits were placed on the Company's ability to make
capital expenditures, investments and acquisitions.

   In connection with the Company's recapitalization plan discussed below, the
lenders under the Credit Agreement approved Amendment No. 2 and Waiver to the
Credit Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 1 and Waiver) and entered into the
Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The key provisions of the Fourth
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (i) waive mandatory prepayment provisions
previously existing under the Credit Agreement to allow for the Company's
recapitalization plan, (ii) require AMF Bowling to contribute as equity $30.0
million to Bowling Worldwide to repay amounts borrowed under the Bank Facility
and consider such prepayment as pre-funding of new bowling center acquisitions,
(iii) allow the Company to resume acquisitions so long as the aggregate purchase
price satisfies certain financial tests and Bowling Worldwide maintains minimum
availability under the Bank Facility of $65.0 million through 2000 and $40.0
million through 2001, (iv) allow AMF Bowling to cure through equity contribution
to Bowling Worldwide shortfalls in minimum EBITDA requirements under the Credit
Agreement up to an aggregate of $10.0 million during any four consecutive
quarters through June 30, 2000, (v) modify or waive certain financial covenants
and (vi) allow Bowling Worldwide to exclude from covenant EBITDA calculations
certain restructuring and other special charges.

   The Company is in compliance with the amended covenants as of June 30, 1999
and believes that it will be in compliance throughout the remainder of 1999, but
any downturn in the current performance of the Company could result in
non-compliance with these financial covenants. Failure by the Company to comply
with its Credit Agreement covenants could result in an event of default which,
if not cured or waived, would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Recapitalization Plan

   As part of a recapitalization plan and in addition to the Amendment and
Waiver, AMF Bowling completed on July 28, 1999 a rights offering and a tender
offer for a portion of its outstanding zero coupon convertible debentures due
2018 (the "Debentures") at a discount.

   In the rights offering, AMF Bowling raised $120.0 million in equity capital
and issued 24.0 million additional shares of Common Stock at the subscription
price of $5.00 per share. As a result of the rights offering, AMF Bowling has
83,597,550 shares of common stock outstanding as of July 28, 1999.

   AMF Bowling purchased $514,286,000 in aggregate principal amount at maturity
of the Debentures in the tender offer at a price of $140 per $1,000 principal
amount at maturity. As a result of consummation of the tender offer,
$610,714,000 in aggregate principal amount at maturity of Debentures remain
outstanding. The Company will record in the third quarter of 1999 an
extraordinary gain of approximately $68.7 million representing the difference
between the accreted value of the Debentures purchased and the purchase price.

   The proceeds of the rights offering were used, in part, to pay for Debentures
purchased by AMF Bowling in the tender offer. AMF Bowling contributed $30.0
million of the proceeds of the rights offering as equity to Bowling Worldwide to
repay amounts borrowed under the Bank Facility. The prepayment amount was
considered prefunding of future bowling center acquisitions. AMF Bowling will
use the remainder of the proceeds to pay expenses of the rights offering and the
tender offer and for general corporate purposes. On a pro forma basis reflecting
the recapitalization plan, total debt would be reduced to $1,194.6 million as of
June 30, 1999.

Note 6.  Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Claims

   The Company is involved in certain lawsuits arising out of normal business
operations. The majority of these relate to accidents at bowling centers.
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial
position. While the ultimate outcome of the litigation and claims against the
Company cannot presently be determined, management believes the Company has made
adequate provision for possible losses.

   On April 22, 1999, a putative class action was filed in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York by Vulcan International
Corporation ("Vulcan") against the Company, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P.,
Goldman, Sachs & Co., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Cowen & Company,
Schroder & Co. Inc., Richard A. Friedman and Douglas J. Stanard. Vulcan, as
putative class representative for itself and all persons who purchased the
Common Stock in the Initial Public Offering, seeks, among other things, damages
and/or rescission against all defendants jointly and severally pursuant to
Sections 11, 12 and/or 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 based on allegedly
inaccurate and misleading disclosures in connection with and following the
Initial Public Offering. Management believes that the litigation is without
merit and intends to defend it vigorously.

Note 7.  Employee Benefit Plans

Chief Executive Stock Option

   On April 28, 1999, the Company granted to Roland Smith a nonqualified stock
option (the "Smith Option") to purchase one million (1,000,000) shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price of $5.2813 per share of Common Stock in connection
with Mr. Smith's employment as president and chief executive officer of the
Company. The exercise price of the Smith Option was equal to the fair market
value of the Common Stock on the date the Smith Option was granted. The Smith
Option was not granted pursuant to either the 1996 Plan or the 1998 Plan.
However, the Smith Option is subject to the terms of the 1998 Plan and such
terms are incorporated into the option agreement. The Smith Option will vest and
become exercisable in 20% increments beginning on the date of grant and on each
of the next four anniversaries thereof, and becomes vested and fully exercisable
upon a Change of Control (as defined in the 1998 Plan).

Note 8.   Acquisitions

   From May 1, 1996 through December 31, 1998, AMF Bowling Centers, a direct
subsidiary of Bowling Worldwide, purchased an aggregate of 262 bowling centers
from various unrelated sellers. From January 1, 1999 through June 30, 1999, the
Company acquired one center in the United States. The combined net purchase
price for all acquisitions was approximately $498.9 million, and was funded with
approximately $76.6 million from the sale of equity by AMF Bowling, $421.1
million from available borrowing under Bowling Worldwide's then existing
Acquisition Facility and current Bank Facility, and with $1.2 million from the
issuance of Common Stock.

   As a result of these acquisitions, and after giving effect to the
construction of two new U.S. centers, the closing of 21 U.S. centers and two
international centers and the sale of a center in Switzerland since the
Acquisition, the Company owned and operated 418 U.S. bowling centers and 123
international bowling centers as of June 30, 1999. As of July 31, 1999, the
Company had no commitments regarding the acquisition of additional bowling
centers.

which are statements other than historical information or statements of current
condition. Statements set forth in this report or statements incorporated by
reference from documents filed with the Commission are or may be forward-looking
statements, including possible or assumed future results of the operations of
AMF Bowling, Inc. ("AMF Bowling" or "AMF") and its subsidiaries (collectively,
the "Company"), including but not limited to any statements contained in this
report concerning: (i) the expected results of AMF Bowling's recapitalization
plan and related activities and charges, (ii) the expected success of the
Company's plans to improve its bowling centers operations, including revenue
enhancement and cost management programs, (iii) the ability of the Company's new
management to execute its strategies, (iv) the success of the recent management
reorganization of the Company's bowling centers and bowling products businesses,
(v) the ability to increase the pace of the Company's bowling center acquisition

this report regarding matters that are not historical facts.

   These forward-looking statements relate to the plans and objectives of the
Company or future operations. In light of the risks and uncertainties inherent
in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this
report should not be regarded as a representation by AMF Bowling that the
objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved. Many factors could cause
the Company's actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements, including: (i) the Company's ability, and the
ability of its new management team, to carry out the Company's long-term
business strategies, including increasing the pace of the Company's acquisition
program, (ii) the Company's ability to integrate acquired operations into its
business, (iii) the Company's ability to identify and develop new bowling
markets to assist its growth, (iv) the continuation of adverse financial results

   The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as
exhaustive and should read in conjunction with other cautionary statements that
are included elsewhere in this report. AMF Bowling undertakes no obligation to
release publicly the results of any future revisions it may make to
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Background

   This discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained
under "Selected Financial Data" and AMF Bowling's Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (unaudited) included elsewhere herein.

   The financial information presented below includes the Company's operating
results expressed in terms of EBITDA, which represents earnings before net
interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other net
income or net expenses. EBITDA information is included because the Company
understands that such information is used by certain investors as one measure of

                                       15

<PAGE>

a company's historical ability to service debt. EBITDA is not intended to
represent and should not be considered more meaningful than, or an alternative
to, other measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

General

   The Company principally operates in two business segments in the United
States and international markets: (i) the ownership and operation of 418 U.S.
bowling centers and 123 international bowling centers ("Bowling Centers"),
including 15 joint venture centers operated with third parties, as of June 30,
1999; and (ii) the manufacture and sale of bowling equipment and bowling
products ("Bowling Products").

   To facilitate a meaningful comparison, in addition to discussing the
consolidated results of the Company, certain portions of this Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss
results of Bowling Centers and Bowling Products separately.

   The results of Bowling Centers, Bowling Products and the consolidated group
are set forth below. The business segment results presented below are before
intersegment eliminations since the Company's management believes that this will
provide a more accurate comparison of performance by segment from year to year.
The intersegment eliminations are not material. Interest expense is presented on
a gross basis. The comparative results of Bowling Centers for the first six
months of 1999 versus 1998 reflect the inclusion of 18 centers acquired and one
center constructed and the closing of 11 centers since June 30, 1998.

Current Developments

Recapitalization Plan Completed

   As part of a recapitalization plan, AMF Bowling completed a rights offering
and a tender offer for a portion of its outstanding zero coupon convertible
debentures due 2018 (the "Debentures"), and the lenders under AMF Bowling
Worldwide, Inc.'s third amended and restated credit agreement dated November 3,
1997, as amended (the "Credit Agreement") amended the Credit Agreement to enable
the Company to resume its bowling center acquisition program and provide greater
financial flexibility under the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement.

   In the rights offering, AMF Bowling raised $120.0 million in equity capital
and issued 24.0 million additional shares of common stock at the subscription
price of $5.00 per share. As a result of the rights offering, the Company has
83,597,550 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of July 28, 1999. The Company
purchased $514,286,000 in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Debentures in the tender offer at a price of $140 per $1000 principal amount at
maturity, and $72.0 million of the proceeds of the rights offering were used to
fund this purchase. On a pro forma basis reflecting the recapitalization plan,
total debt would be reduced to $1,194.6 million as of June 30, 1999.

   See "Note 5. Long-Term Debt and Recapitalization Plan" in the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the rights
offering, tender offer, and amendment to the Credit Agreement.

New Distribution Arrangement

   On June 13, 1999, AMF Bowling Products, Inc. ("AMF Bowling Products") signed
joint distribution agreements, a trademark license agreement and an option
agreement with Zhonglu. Under the distribution agreements, the Company will add
to its product mix and exclusively distribute certain Zhonglu products and parts
outside of China and Zhonglu will add to its product mix and exclusively
distribute AMF products and parts inside of China. With this distribution
arrangement, the Company will close all but one of its company-owned offices in
China and will be exclusively represented in China by Zhonglu. Additionally, AMF
will have an option under certain circumstances to acquire Zhonglu's bowling
products business during the three-year term of the agreements.

Bowling Centers

   The Bowling Centers results shown in "Selected Financial Data" reflect both
U.S. and international Bowling Centers operations. Bowling Centers derives its
revenue and cash flows from three principal sources: (i) bowling, (ii) food and
beverage and (iii) other sources, such as shoe rental, amusement games,
billiards and pro shops. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, bowling, food
and beverage and other revenue represented 58.8%, 27.2% and 14.0% of total
Bowling Centers revenue, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1998,
bowling, food and beverage and other revenue represented 59.5%, 26.9% and 13.6%
of total Bowling Centers revenue, respectively.


Quarter Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 1998

   Bowling Centers operating revenue increased $13.7 million, or 11.9%. An
increase of $11.1 million is attributable to new centers, of which $8.8 million
is from U.S. centers and $2.3 million is from international centers. Eighteen
new centers were acquired and one new center was constructed between July 1,
1998 and June 30, 1999. Constant centers operating revenue increased $3.8
million, or 3.8%. U.S. constant centers operating revenue increased $3.4
million, or 4.5%, primarily as a result of increases in open play revenue, food
and beverage and ancillary revenue associated with open play traffic.
International constant centers operating revenue increased $0.4 million, or
1.7%. A decrease of $1.2 million in total operating revenue was attributable to
11 centers that were closed since June 30, 1998.

   Cost of goods sold increased $1.2 million, or 9.6%. Of the total increase in
cost of goods sold, $1.4 million is attributable to the new centers. Constant
centers cost of goods sold decreased $0.1 million, or 0.1%. A decrease of $0.1
million was attributable to closed centers.

   Operating expenses increased $7.7 million, or 9.3%. An increase of $6.9
million was attributable to the increase in the number of centers and an
increase of $2.4 million was primarily attributable to constant centers. A
decrease of $1.2 million was attributable to closed centers and a decrease of
$0.4 million was attributable to lower regional and district operations
expenses. As a percentage of its revenue, Bowling Centers operating expenses
were 70.3% for the second quarter of 1999 compared to 72.0% for the second
quarter of 1998. The 1.7% decrease was primarily attributable to lower expenses
resulting from certain cost management initiatives which reduced operating
expenses as a percentage of revenue. Generally, Bowling Centers operating
expenses are a higher percentage of revenue in the second and third quarters as
compared to the first and fourth quarters in which league play is significantly
greater than in the second and third quarters.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.1 million, or 6.2%,
due to an increase in costs associated with growth experienced in Australia and
the United Kingdom.

   EBITDA increased $4.7 million, or 25.7%. The increase is primarily
attributable to contributions by new and constant centers. EBITDA margin for the
second quarter of 1999 was 17.8% compared to 15.8% for the second quarter of
1998. The higher EBITDA margin in 1999 was attributable to the increases in
revenue which resulted in part from AMF's marketing and operating initiatives to
improve customer traffic and certain cost management initiatives which reduced
cost of sales and operating expenses as a percentage of revenue.


Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1998

   Bowling Centers operating revenue increased $36.1 million, or 13.6%. An
increase of $36.7 million is attributable to new centers, of which $27.4 million
is from U.S. centers and $9.3 million is from international centers. Eighteen
new centers were acquired and one new center was constructed between July 1,
1998 and June 30, 1999. Constant centers operating revenue increased $2.3
million, or 1.0%. U.S. constant centers operating revenue increased $2.2
million, or 1.1%, primarily as a result of increases in open play revenue, food
and beverage and ancillary revenue associated with open play traffic.
International constant centers operating revenue increased $0.1 million, or
0.2%. A decrease of $2.8 million in total operating revenue was attributable to
11 centers that were closed since June 30, 1998.

<PAGE>


   Cost of goods sold increased $4.7 million, or 18.1%. Of the total increase in
cost of goods sold, $4.3 million is attributable to the new centers. Constant
centers cost of goods sold increased $0.7 million, or 3.0%, as a result of
higher food costs. A decrease of $0.3 million is attributable to closed centers.

   Operating expenses increased $22.7 million, or 14.0%. An increase of $20.8
million was attributable to the increase in the number of centers and an
increase of $5.3 million was primarily attributable to constant centers. A
decrease of $2.4 million was attributable to closed centers and a decrease of
$1.0 million was attributable to lower regional and district operations
expenses. As a percentage of its revenue, Bowling Centers operating expenses
were 61.1% for the first six months of 1999 compared to 60.8% for the first six
months of 1998, an increase of 0.3% primarily attributable to higher expenses
related to maintenance and supplies, advertising and payroll experienced in the
first quarter of 1999.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.3 million, or 9.7%,
due to an increase in costs associated with growth experienced in Australia and
the United Kingdom.

   EBITDA increased $8.4 million, or 11.2%. The EBITDA contribution of new
centers was partially offset by the increased expenses discussed above. EBITDA
margin for the first six months of 1999 was 27.7% compared to 28.3% for the
first six months of 1998.

Bowling Products

Quarter Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 1998

   Bowling Products operating revenue decreased $12.7 million, or 24.6%. Revenue
from sales of New Center Packages ("NCPs" which include all the equipment
necessary to outfit a new bowling center or expand an existing bowling center)
decreased $13.4 million, or 60.6%, and Modernization and Consumer Products
(which include modernization equipment, supplies, spare parts and consumable
products) revenue increased $0.7 million, or 2.4%. Operating results have been
and continue to be adversely impacted by economic difficulties in certain
markets of the Asia Pacific region and increased competition thereby reducing
the level of shipments for NCPs. The strong U.S. dollar also unfavorably
affected pricing and financial statement translation. During the second quarter
of 1999, Bowling Products recorded NCP shipments of 153 units compared to
shipments of 659 units for the second quarter of 1998.

   Gross profit decreased $5.8 million, or 42.0%, primarily as a result of the
decreased levels of NCP shipments, lower pricing and unabsorbed fixed overhead
resulting from low production levels.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $2.0 million, or
20.0%, primarily as a result of an ongoing cost reduction program in which the
Bowling Products organization has been streamlined to reduce expenses. Such cost
reduction has served to partially offset the impact of lower sales volume and
unit pricing on EBITDA.

   EBITDA decreased from $3.8 million in the second quarter of 1998 to zero in
the second quarter of 1999, and the EBITDA margin decreased from 7.4% in the
second quarter of 1998 to zero in the second quarter of 1999 primarily as a
result of lower revenue and gross profit which exceeded the effect of savings
achieved through cost reductions.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1998

   Bowling Products operating revenue decreased $21.8 million, or 23.5%. Revenue
from sales of NCPs decreased $22.1 million, or 55.5%, and Modernization and
Consumer Products revenue increased $0.3 million, or 0.5%. Operating results
have been adversely impacted by economic difficulties and increased competition
in certain markets of the Asia Pacific region which have reduced the level of
shipments for NCPs and Modernization and Consumer Products. The strong U.S.
dollar also unfavorably affected pricing and financial statement translation.
During the first six months of 1999, Bowling Products recorded NCP shipments of
422 units compared to shipments of 1,163 units for the first six months of 1998.

                                       19

<PAGE>


   Gross profit decreased $10.0 million, or 39.1%, primarily as a result of the
decreased levels of NCP shipments, lower pricing and unabsorbed fixed overhead
resulting from low production levels.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $5.5 million, or 25.3%,
primarily as a result of an ongoing cost reduction program in which the Bowling
Products organization has been streamlined in order to reduce expenses. Such
cost reduction has served to partially offset the impact of lower sales volume
and unit pricing on EBITDA.

   Bowling Products EBITDA decreased from $3.9 million in the first six months
of 1998 to $(0.6) million in the first six months of 1999, and the Bowling
Products EBITDA margin decreased from 4.2% in the first six months of 1998 to
(0.8)% in the first six months of 1999 primarily as a result of lower revenue
and gross profit which exceeded the effect of savings achieved through cost
reductions.

Consolidated

Depreciation and Amortization

   Depreciation and amortization increased $2.9 million, or 9.6%, in the second
quarter of 1999, and $9.5 million, or 16.7%, in the six months ended June 30,
1999 compared to the comparable periods in 1998. The increase was attributable
to depreciation of property and equipment of centers acquired since June 30,
1998, amortization of the excess of the Company's investment over its equity in
its Brazilian joint venture's net assets, and incremental depreciation expense
incurred as a result of capital expenditures.

Interest Expense

   Gross interest expense increased $5.8 million, or 21.0%, in the second
quarter of 1999, and $10.8 million, or 20.1%, in the six months ended June 30,
1999 compared to the comparable periods in 1998 primarily due to interest
incurred on the Debentures. In addition, $1.8 million of deferred finance costs
associated with a prior amendment to the Credit Agreement was expensed in the
second quarter of 1999. See "--Liquidity" and "--Capital Resources" for further
discussion of the bank debt and the Debentures. Non-cash bond interest
amortization totaled $11.9 million and $23.3 million for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1999, respectively, compared to $8.4 million and $14.2
million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively.

Income Taxes

   As of December 31, 1998, the Company had net operating losses of
approximately $194.5 million and foreign tax credits of $19.7 million that will
carry over to future years to offset U.S. taxes. The foreign tax credits will
begin to expire in the year 2001 and the net operating losses will begin to
expire in the year 2011. The Company has recorded a valuation reserve, as of
June 30, 1999, for $45.6 million related to net operating losses and foreign tax
credits that the Company may not utilize prior to their expirations. As a
result, the tax provision recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1999 will
only reflect international taxes.

Net Loss

   Net losses in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999 totaled
$54.1 million and $72.8 million, respectively, compared to net losses of $35.8
million and $36.4 million in the second quarter and six months ended June 30,
1998, respectively. The increased loss of $18.3 million in the second quarter
was primarily a result of decreases in Bowling Products revenue and EBITDA
discussed above and the increase in depreciation and interest expenses. The
increased loss of $36.4 million in the first six months of 1999 was primarily a
result of decreases in Bowling Products revenue and EBITDA discussed above and
the increase in depreciation and interest expenses. The Company recorded $0.2
million and $5.7 million in equity in loss of joint ventures in the second
quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively, compared to equity in
loss of joint ventures of $1.3 million and $1.6 million in the second quarter

                                       20

and six months ended June 30, 1998. Additionally, the Company has not recorded a
tax benefit in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999 (see
"--Income Taxes").

Liquidity

   The Company's primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations and
funds available under credit facilities, as described below. Working capital on
June 30, 1999 was $63.4 million compared to $70.6 million as of December 31,
1998, a decrease of $7.2 million. Decreases in working capital were primarily
attributable to a decrease of $17.8 million in cash attributable to
reimbursement of prize funds held on behalf of leagues, an increase of $1.9
million in the current portion of long-term debt and an increase of $1.2 million
in income taxes payable. These decreases in working capital were offset by an
increase in working capital caused by an increase of $6.1 million in accounts
receivable due to fall dating (sales made during the second and third quarters
with payment terms calling for payments in the fourth quarter), an increase of
$6.2 million in deferred taxes and other current assets, an increase of $1.1
million in inventories and a decrease of $0.3 million in accounts payable and
accrued expenses.

   Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $8.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 compared to net cash flows used of $14.1 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, a difference of $22.9 million. An increase
of $27.8 million was attributable to increased levels of accounts payable and
accrued expenses; an increase of $6.5 million was attributable to decreased
levels of other assets; an increase of $12.1 million was attributable to lower
inventory balances resulting from lower Bowling Products sales volumes in 1999;
an increase of $9.5 million was due to higher amounts of depreciation and
amortization; an increase of $9.1 million was attributable to higher levels of
bond amortization attributable to the Debentures; an increase of $4.1 million
was due to the increased loss in equity of joint ventures caused by the
Company's Brazilian joint venture results which were adversely impacted by a
currency devaluation and a net increase of $2.5 million was attributable to
changes in other operating activities. These increases were partially offset by
a decrease of $36.4 million attributable to a net loss of $72.8 million recorded
in the first six months of 1999 compared to a net loss of $36.4 million in the
same period in 1998 and a decrease of $12.3 million attributable to lower levels
of accounts receivable.

   Net cash flows used in investing activities were $22.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 compared to net cash flows used of $185.7 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, a decrease of $163.2 million. Bowling Center
acquisition spending decreased by $151.4 million and purchases of property and
equipment decreased by $6.4 million in the first six months of 1999 compared to
the same period in 1998. In the first six months of 1999, one center was
purchased compared to 66 centers in the same period in 1998. Investments in and
advances to joint ventures were zero in the first six months of 1999 compared to
$5.4 million in the same period in 1998. See "Note 8. Acquisitions" in the Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and "--Capital Expenditures" for
additional discussion of these investing activities.

     Net cash used in financing activities was $2.7 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to net cash provided of $215.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998, a difference of $218.6 million. Proceeds from long
term debt decreased $468.6 million. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement
decreased $184.5 million as a result of the curtailment of the pace of
acquisitions and the issuance of Debentures on May 12, 1998 for net proceeds of
approximately $273.1 million. Payments on long-term debt decreased $240.1
million primarily because $249.6 million of the proceeds of the Debentures was
used to pay down the Bank Facility under the Credit Agreement. In accordance
with the terms of the Credit Agreement, scheduled principal payments in the
first six months of 1999 were $2.5 million higher than payments made in the same
period in 1998. Additionally, $7.0 million was paid in the second quarter of
1999 against amounts outstanding under the Bank Facility. In the first six
months of 1998, $1.7 million of Common Stock was issued, of which $1.2 million
was attributable to shares issued in the acquisition of the Active West chain of
bowling centers and $0.5 million was attributable to shares issued upon exercise
of employee Stock Options. Expenses of the Initial Public Offering totaling $0.6
million were paid in the first half of 1998. See "Note 5. Long-Term Debt", "Note
7. Employee Benefit Plans", and "Note 8. Acquisitions" in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements and "--Capital Resources".

   As a result of the aforementioned, cash decreased by $18.2 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to an increase of $16.1 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998.

                                       21

Capital Resources

   The Company's total indebtedness is primarily a result of the financing of
the acquisition of the Company in 1996 by an investor group led by an affiliate
of Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the "Acquisition") and the Company's bowling center
acquisition program. At June 30, 1999, the Company's debt consisted of $581.6
million of borrowings under the Credit Agreement and a mortgage (collectively,
the "Senior Debt"), $250.0 million of Bowling Worldwide's senior subordinated
notes ("Subsidiary Senior Subordinated Notes"), $226.2 million of Bowling
Worldwide's senior subordinated discount notes ("Subsidiary Senior Subordinated
Discount Notes"), and $307.2 million of Debentures. The Company's Senior Debt
consisted of $403.6 million outstanding under term loan facilities under the
Credit Agreement (the "Term Facilities"), $176.0 million outstanding under a
non-amortizing revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement (the "Bank
Facility") and $2.0 million represented by one mortgage note. At June 30, 1999,
the Company was also capitalized with equity of $457.3 million.

   The Company has the ability to borrow for general corporate purposes and, to
a limited extent, for acquisitions pursuant to the $355.0 million Bank Facility,
subject to certain conditions. At June 30, 1999, $176.0 million was outstanding
and $179.0 million was available for borrowing under the Bank Facility. Between
June 30, 1999 and July 31, 1999, there were $10.0 million in additional
borrowings and $30.0 million in payments resulting in a balance, as of July 31,
1999, of $156.0 million under the Bank Facility.

   In connection with the Company's recapitalization plan, the lenders under the
Credit Agreement amended the terms of the Credit Agreement, as of June 14, 1999,
to provide the Company with (i) the ability to increase the pace of its bowling
center acquisition program, (ii) greater financial flexibility under the
covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and (iii) certain other
modifications. See "Note 5. Long-Term Debt" in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company is in compliance with the amended
covenants as of June 30, 1999. Management believes that it will remain in
compliance throughout 1999, but any downturn in the current performance of the
Company could result in non-compliance with these financial covenants. Failure
by the Company to comply with its Credit Agreement covenants could result in an
event of default which, if not cured or waived, would have a material adverse
effect on the Company.

   During the first six months of 1999, the Company funded its cash needs
through the Bank Facility as well as cash flow from operations and cash
balances. A substantial portion of the Company's available cash will be applied
to service outstanding indebtedness. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, the
Company incurred cash interest expense of $41.1 million, representing 57.2% of
EBITDA for the period. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company
incurred cash interest expense of $38.5 million, representing 54.5% of EBITDA
for the period.

   The indentures governing the Subsidiary Senior Subordinated Notes and the
Subsidiary Senior Subordinated Discount Notes (together with the Subsidiary
Senior Subordinated Notes, the "Subsidiary Notes") and certain provisions of the
Credit Agreement contain financial and operating covenants and significant
restrictions on the ability of the Company to pay dividends, incur indebtedness,
make investments and take certain other corporate actions. As of June 30, 1999,
the Company is in compliance with all of its covenants.

   The Company's ability to make scheduled payments of principal of, or to pay
interest on, or to refinance its indebtedness depends on its future performance,
which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial,
competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond its control,
including the conditions of the debt and equity markets. Based upon the current
level of operations, management believes that cash flow from operations,
together with available borrowings under the Credit Agreement and other sources
of liquidity, will be adequate to meet the Company's requirements for working
capital, capital expenditures, scheduled payments of principal of, and interest
on, its Senior Debt, and interest on the Subsidiary Notes. There can be no
assurance, however, that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash
flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available in an amount
sufficient to enable the Company to service its indebtedness, or make necessary
capital expenditures, or that any refinancing would be available on commercially
reasonable terms or at all.

Capital Expenditures

   For the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company's capital expenditures
were $21.3 million compared to $27.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998, a decrease of $6.4 million. Bowling Centers maintenance and modernization
expenditures decreased $2.3 million. Bowling Products expenditures decreased
$2.7 million. Company-wide information systems expenditures decreased $1.1
million. Investments in extreme bowling equipment at various AMF bowling centers
increased by $0.6 million. Capital expenditures for new centers increased $0.4
million due to the opening of a Michael Jordan Golf Center and other
expenditures decreased $1.3 million.

   While the Company's intention is to continue consolidating the U.S. bowling
center industry by acquiring additional bowling centers, the Company will
evaluate acquisitions on a more selective basis and will consider acquisition
targets which meet specific operating and valuation parameters. At the same
time, management will continue its focus on improving financial performance of
its current centers. As of July 31, 1999, the Company had no formal commitments
to build or acquire bowling centers. The Company has committed to build one
Michael Jordan Golf Center in 1999.

   The Company has funded its capital expenditures from cash generated by
operations and, with respect to the construction and acquisition of new centers,
internally-generated cash, the Bank Facility and issuances of Common Stock. See
"Note 8. Acquisitions" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements, "--Liquidity" and "--Capital Resources."

   In connection with the Company's recapitalization plan, the lenders under the
Credit Agreement amended the terms of the Credit Agreement, as of June 14, 1999,
to provide the Company with (i) the ability to increase the pace of its bowling
center acquisition program on a selective basis, (ii) greater financial
flexibility under the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and (iii)
certain other modifications. See "Note 5. Long-Term Debt" in the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Seasonality and Cyclicality

   The financial performance of Bowling Centers' operations is seasonal. Cash
flows typically peak in the winter and reach their lows in the summer. While the
geographic diversity of the Company's Bowling Centers operations has helped
reduce this seasonality in the past, the increase in U.S. centers resulting from
acquisitions has increased the seasonality of that business.

   Modernization and Consumer Products sales also display seasonality. The U.S.
market, which is the largest market for Modernization and Consumer Products, is
driven by the beginning of league play in the fall of each year. While operators
purchase consumer products throughout the year, they often place larger orders
during the summer in preparation for the start of league play in the fall.
Summer is also generally the peak period for installation of modernization
equipment. Operators typically sign purchase orders for modernization equipment
during the first four months of the year after they received winter league
revenue indications. Equipment is then shipped and installed during the summer
when leagues are generally less active. However, sales of some modernization
equipment such as automatic scoring and synthetic lanes are less predictable and
fluctuate from year to year because of the longer life cycle of these major
products.

   Sales of NCPs can fluctuate dramatically as a result of economic fluctuations
in international markets, as seen in the reduction of sales of NCPs to markets
in the Asia Pacific region following economic difficulties in that region.

International Operations

   The Company's international operations are subject to the risks inherent in
operating abroad, including, but not limited to, currency exchange rate
fluctuations, economic and political fluctuations and destabilization, other
disruption of markets, restrictive laws, tariffs and other actions by foreign
governments (such as restrictions on transfer of funds, import and export duties
and quotas, foreign customs, tariffs and value added taxes and unexpected
changes in regulatory environments), difficulty in obtaining distribution and

                                       23

<PAGE>

support for products, the risk of nationalization, the laws and policies of the
United States affecting trade, international investment and loans, and foreign
tax law changes.

   The Company has a history of operating in a number of international markets,
in some cases, for over 30 years. As in the case of other U.S.-based
manufacturers with export sales, local currency devaluation increases the cost
of the Company's bowling equipment in that market. As a result, a strengthening
U.S. dollar exchange rate adversely impacts sales volume and profit margins
during such periods.

   The continuing economic difficulties in the Asia Pacific region have had and
will continue to have an adverse impact on NCP sales. One of the reasons for the
decline in NCP sales is the limited availability of financing for customers
desiring to build new bowling centers, especially in the Asia Pacific region. In
addition, Zhonglu became a significant competitor in China. On June 13, 1999,
AMF Bowling Products signed a 3-year joint distribution agreement with Zhonglu.
Under the terms of the agreement, Zhonglu will become the exclusive distributor
of AMF products and parts in China, and Bowling Products will be the exclusive
distributor of Zhonglu bowling products and parts outside China. These
agreements are intended to improve Bowling Products' competitive position in
both China and other developing markets. However, there is no assurance that
such an improvement will occur.

   NCP unit sales to China, Japan and other countries in the Asia Pacific region
represented 55.5% of total NCP unit sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999
compared to 52.8% for the year ended December 31, 1998

   China has strengthened its import restrictions by requiring the payment of
full customs duties and value-added taxes on the importation of new and used
capital goods. The Chinese government has also begun to prohibit importation of
used capital equipment without permits. Permits for the importation of used
bowling equipment are very difficult to obtain. Local Chinese companies,
however, are not subject to the same restrictions. For example, Zhonglu recently
began producing locally and selling bowling equipment that is not subject to
the customs duties or permit requirements that affect the Company's imported
equipment. Zhonglu has experienced significant acceptance by local customers.
These Chinese import restrictions have had, and for the foreseeable future
management believes will continue to have, an adverse effect on the Bowling
Products business.

   Foreign currency exchange rates also impact the translation of operating
results from international bowling centers. For the six months ended June 30,
1999, revenue and EBITDA of international bowling centers represented 17.4% and
25.3% of consolidated results, respectively. For the six months ended June 30,
1998, revenue and EBITDA of international bowling centers represented 15.6% and
21.2% of consolidated results, respectively. For the year ended December 31,
1998, revenue and EBITDA of international bowling centers represented 15.7% and
24.3% of consolidated results, respectively.

Impact of Inflation

   The Company has historically offset the impact of inflation through price
increases and expense reductions. Periods of high inflation could have a
material adverse impact on the Company to the extent that increased borrowing
costs for floating rate debt may not be offset by increases in cash flow.

Environmental Matters

   The Company's operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign
environmental laws and regulations that impose limitations on the discharge of,
and establish standards for the handling, generation, emission, release,
discharge, treatment, storage and disposal of, certain materials, substances and
wastes.

   The Company currently and from time to time is subject to environmental
claims. In management's opinion, the various claims in which the Company
currently is involved are not likely to have a material adverse impact on its
financial position or results of operations. However, it is not possible to
ensure the ultimate outcome of such claims.

   The Company cannot predict with any certainty whether existing conditions or
future events, such as changes in existing laws and regulations, may give rise
to additional environmental costs. Furthermore, actions by federal, state, local

                                       24

<PAGE>

and foreign governments concerning environmental matters could result in laws or
regulations that could increase the cost of producing the Company's products, or
providing its services, or otherwise adversely affect the demand for its
products or services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

   Effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Company will be required
to adopt SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." The Company does not expect that adoption of this standard will
have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

Year 2000

   Many computer systems in use today were designed and developed using two
digits, rather than four, to specify the year. As a result, such systems will
recognize the Year 2000 as "00" and may assume that the year is 1900 rather than
2000. This could cause many computer applications to fail completely or to
create erroneous results unless corrective measures are taken. The Company
recognizes the need to ensure its operations will not be adversely impacted by
Year 2000 software failures, and is in the process of preparing for the Year
2000.

   The Company has evaluated its Year 2000 risk in three separate categories:
information technology systems ("IT"), non-IT systems ("Non-IT") and material
third party relationships ("Third Party Risk"). The Company has developed a plan
in which the risks in each of these categories are being reviewed and addressed
by the appropriate level of management as follows:

      IT. The Company has a number of financial, retail and operational systems
      worldwide. The retail systems in many of its bowling centers are already
      Year 2000 compliant. The Company is in the process of installing
      corrective measures for those bowling centers that are not compliant and
      expects this effort to be complete by the third quarter of 1999. The
      Company is installing new financial and operational systems at several
      locations. In connection with this effort, system programs have been
      designed so that the Year 2000 will be recognized as a valid date and will
      not affect the processing of date-sensitive information. The financial and
      operational systems have already been installed for U.S. Bowling Centers
      and at the corporate level. The effort will be complete for Bowling
      Products locations before year-end. Several locations have existing
      systems that are being upgraded for Year 2000 compliance, which will be
      completed by the end of the third quarter of 1999. In 1997, 1998 and for
      the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company spent approximately $12.6
      million, $4.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively, on systems that are
      designed to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company expects to spend an
      additional $3.5 million to complete the installation. These costs include
      normal system software and equipment upgrades or replacements that the
      Company anticipated incurring and budgeted in the normal course of
      business, separate from the Year 2000 issue.

      Non-IT. Non-IT systems involve embedded technologies, such as
      microcontrollers or microprocessors. Examples of Non-IT systems include
      telephones, security systems and computer-controlled manufacturing
      equipment. The Company sells automatic scoring that is computerized and
      has developed a software program for a cost to the Company of
      approximately $50,000 that will address the Year 2000 issue in its
      automatic scoring. This software will be made available to customers with
      service contracts at no cost and will be sold to customers without service
      contracts. To date, management believes the Company's Non-IT risks are
      minimal. For the most part, costs of addressing Non-IT risks are included
      in normal upgrade and replacement expenditures that were planned outside
      of the Company's Year 2000 review.

      Third Party Risk. The Company's review of its Third Party Risk includes
      detailed reviews of critical relationships with vendors and certain
      business partners. The Company is monitoring and assessing the progress of
      its vendors and certain business partners to determine whether they will
      be able to successfully interact with the Company in the Year 2000. The
      Company has contacted and received oral or written responses from at least
      half of its critical vendors, all of which are in various stages of
      addressing the Year 2000 issue, and is currently awaiting response from
      the remainder of its critical vendors.

   If the steps taken by the Company and its vendors and certain business
partners to be Year 2000 compliant are not successful, the Company could
experience various operational difficulties. These could include, among other
things, processing transactions to an incorrect accounting period, difficulties
in posting general ledger interfaces and lapse of certain services by vendors to
the Bowling Centers operations. If the Company's plan to install new systems
which effectively address the Year 2000 issue is not successfully or timely
implemented, the Company may need to devote more resources to the process and
additional costs may be incurred. The Company believes that the Year 2000 issue
is being appropriately addressed through the implementation of these new systems
and software development and by its critical vendors and certain business
partners and does not expect the Year 2000 issue to have a material adverse
impact on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company in future periods. However, should the remaining review of the Company's
Year 2000 risks reveal potentially non-compliant computer systems or material
third parties, contingency plans will be developed at that time.


                                   PART II

Item 1. Legal

   The Company currently and from time to time is subject to claims and actions
arising in the ordinary course of its business, including environmental claims,
discrimination claims, workers' compensation claims, and personal injury claims
from customers of Bowling Centers. In some actions, plaintiffs request punitive
or other damages that may not be covered by insurance. In management's opinion,
the claims and actions in which the Company is involved will not have a material
adverse impact on its financial position or results of operations. However, it
is not possible to predict the outcome of such claims and actions.

   On April 22, 1999, a putative class action was filed in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York by Vulcan International
Corporation ("Vulcan") against the Company, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P.,
Goldman, Sachs & Co., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Cowen & Company,
Schroder & Co. Inc., Richard A. Friedman and Douglas J. Stanard. Vulcan, as
putative class representative for itself and all persons who purchased the
Common Stock in the Initial Public Offering, seeks, among other things, damages
and/or rescission against all defendants jointly and severally pursuant to
Sections 11, 12 and/or 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 based on allegedly
inaccurate and misleading disclosures in connection with and following the
Initial Public Offering. Management believes that the litigation is without
merit and intends to defend it vigorously.
