                             THE ENSTAR GROUP, INC.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1:  GENERAL

     The consolidated financial statements of The Enstar Group, Inc. (the
"Company") are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all
adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary to
fairly state the Company's financial condition and results of operations for the
interim period. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999 included in
the Company's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 22, 2000 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified in the financial statements to conform
with the current year presentation.

NOTE 2:  B-LINE

     In November 1998, the Company purchased $950,000 in membership units of
B-Line LLC ("B-Line"). B-Line is a privately owned company based in Seattle,
Washington, that provides services to credit card issuers and other holders of
similar receivables. B-Line also purchases credit card receivables and recovers
payments on these accounts.

     At the time of the purchase, the Company's membership units represented
approximately 8.77% of the outstanding units of B-Line. The Company also
purchased a one-year warrant to acquire additional B-Line units, with an
aggregate exercise price of $950,000. Other investors also purchased membership
units and warrants in B-Line. The Company's warrants expired unexercised in
November 1999. As a result of the expiration of the warrants, the Company's
ownership percentage decreased to approximately 7.99%.

     The Company's B-Line membership units are accounted for under the equity
method. In addition, legal and professional fees of approximately $15,000
incurred in the purchase of the Company's investment were capitalized as a part
of the original cost. Approximately $803,000 of the original $950,000 investment
was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over a period of 10 years.

NOTE 3:  SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     (a) Common Stock -- In January 1999, the Company issued 160 shares of its
common stock to qualified former shareholders in accordance with the terms of
its reorganization plan. It was determined by the Company that these former
shareholders had submitted a complete Certification of Ownership in a timely
manner.

     (b) Additional Paid-in Capital -- In February 1999, additional legal fees
of $10,000 were incurred by the Company in relation to the sale of 1,158,860
newly issued shares of the Company's common stock to J. Christopher Flowers in
December 1998. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
these fees were charged to equity in the first quarter of 1999.

     (c) Note Receivable -- In March 2000, Mr. J. Christopher Flowers, Vice
Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, repaid his $15 million note
with accrued interest to the Company. This note receivable, net of discount, was
classified as a reduction to equity. The note had a due date of December 18,
2000, and resulted from the Company's sale of 1,158,860 newly issued shares of
common stock to Mr. Flowers on December 18, 1998. In connection with the early
repayment of the note receivable, the Company reversed the unamortized portion
of the discount recorded on the note receivable. This reversal resulted in a
decrease of approximately $411,000 to general and administrative expenses in
March 2000.

NOTE 4:  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On February 11, 1997, fifteen former shareholders of the Company filed a
lawsuit against the Company. The complaint, which deals with actions occurring
prior to the Company's filing for bankruptcy in 1991, alleges that the Company
along with its then principal officers and others defrauded the plaintiffs in
violation of the Alabama Securities Act and other Alabama statutory provisions.
The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages in the amount of their alleged losses
of approximately $2.0 million and unspecified punitive damages. The Company
filed a motion to dismiss and/or for summary judgement on March 17, 1997. The
motion filed by the Company contends that the claims asserted are barred by the
applicable statutes of limitations. The motion is still pending before the
court. In the event the plaintiffs' claims are not dismissed pursuant to the
Company's motion, the Company intends to contest the plaintiffs' claims
vigorously. The Company cannot, however, reasonably predict the outcome of this
lawsuit.

NOTE 6:  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 12, 2000, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive
agreement to join with co-investors to acquire two reinsurance subsidiaries of
Petrofina S.A. Petrofina S.A. is a subsidiary of TotalFina Elf S.A. The
subsidiaries, Brittany Insurance Company, Ltd. ("Brittany"), incorporated under
the laws of Bermuda, and Compagnie Europeenne d'Assurances Industrielles S.A.

to Petrofina S.A. and its other subsidiaries. The Company, along with a private
Bermuda based firm which is in the business of acquiring and managing captive
reinsurance operations, and an entity controlled by Trident II, L.P. have formed
BH Acquisition Limited in Bermuda to acquire Brittany and CEAI. Trident II,
L.P., which is managed by Marsh & McLennan Capital, Inc., makes private equity
and equity related investments in the global insurance, reinsurance and related
industries. In exchange for approximately $9.4 million, the Company will receive

                        INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Board of Directors and Shareholders of
The Enstar Group, Inc.
Montgomery, Alabama

     We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of The Enstar
Group, Inc. and subsidiary as of March 31, 2000, and the related consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31,
2000 and 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of The Enstar
Group, Inc. and subsidiary's management.

     We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.

     Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to such consolidated financial statements for them to be in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

     We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of The
Enstar Group, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1999 and the related
consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity
and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report
dated February 4, 2000 (March 7, 2000 as to Note 12), we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1999 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's assets, aggregating approximately $84.7 million at March 31,
2000, consisted primarily of cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit.

     The Company is currently engaged in the active search for one or more
operating businesses. This search occupies substantially all of the time of the
Company's senior officers. The Company's officers and directors have identified
one such suitable acquisition and the Company has entered into a definitive
agreement to join with co-investors to acquire two reinsurance subsidiaries of
Petrofina S.A. See "Recent Developments".

Financial Condition

     The Company had total assets of $84.7 million at March 31, 2000 compared to
$69.4 million at December 31, 1999. The increase in total assets was due to the
early repayment of a $15 million note by J. Christopher Flowers, Vice Chairman
of the Board of Directors of the Company.

     Mr. Flowers repaid his $15 million note with accrued interest to the
Company on March 3, 2000. The note had a due date of December 18, 2000, and
resulted from the Company's sale of 1,158,860 newly issued shares of common
stock to Mr. Flowers on December 18, 1998 (the "Flowers Transaction"). In
connection with the repayment, the Company reversed the unamortized discount on
the note of approximately $411,000.

Results of Operations

     The Company reported net income of $613,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, compared to net income of $248,000 for the same period in the
prior year.

     Investment income was approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. Investment income was comprised of interest income and equity in
earnings from the Company's interest in B-Line LLC. Interest income increased
approximately $86,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the
same period in 1999. Equity in earnings from B-Line LLC increased approximately
$124,000 in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter of 1999.

     General and administrative expenses were approximately $646,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to $806,000 for the same period in
1999. In connection with the early repayment of the note in the Flowers
transaction, the Company reversed the unamortized portion of the discount
recorded on the note. This reversal resulted in a decrease of approximately
$411,000 to general and administrative expenses in March 2000. This decrease was
partially offset by additional expense resulting from a new shares tax imposed
by the State of Alabama. In addition to these and other normal operating
expenses, general and administrative expenses include legal and professional
fees as well as travel expenses incurred in connection with the Company's search
for an operating company. Most variances to general and administrative expenses
can be attributed to the number of potential acquisition candidates the Company
locates as well as the degree of interest the Company may have in such
candidates. The stronger the interest in a candidate, the more rigorous
financial and legal due diligence the Company will incur with respect to that
candidate.

Other Material Item

     On March 2, 2000, the Company announced that its Board of Directors named
John J. Oros to the position of Executive Vice President and elected him as a
director to fill a newly created position on the Board of Directors. Mr. Oros'
responsibilities will involve working with the Company's management and other
directors to locate an acquisition target. Mr. Oros also was granted options to
purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock under the Omnibus Plan
with an exercise price of 12 3/4, the average of the high and low bid price on
March 2, 2000. The options granted under the Omnibus Plan vest in three
installments; 50,000 on March 2, 2001 and 25,000 each on March 2, 2002 and 2003.

Recent Developments

     On April 12, 2000, the Company announced that it signed a definitive
agreement to join with co-investors to acquire two reinsurance subsidiaries of
Petrofina S.A. Petrofina S.A. is a subsidiary of TotalFina Elf S.A. The
subsidiaries, Brittany Insurance Company, Ltd. ("Brittany"), incorporated under
the laws of Bermuda, and Compagnie Europeenne d'Assurances Industrielles S.A.
("CEAI"), a Belgian corporation, have been restructured to exclude risks related
to Petrofina S.A. and its other subsidiaries. The Company, along with a private
Bermuda based firm which is in the business of acquiring and managing captive
reinsurance operations, and an entity controlled by Trident II, L.P. have formed
BH Acquisition Limited in Bermuda to acquire Brittany and CEAI. Trident II,
L.P., which is managed by Marsh & McLennan Capital, Inc., makes private equity
and equity related investments in the global insurance, reinsurance and related
industries. In exchange for approximately $9.4 million, the Company will receive
50% of the voting stock and a 33% economic interest in BH Acquisition Limited.
The acquisitions are subject to regulatory approval in Bermuda and Belgium.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company is exposed to some market risk from changes in interest rates,
but the Company does not believe the risk is material. The Company had cash and
cash equivalents of approximately $79.4 million in interest bearing accounts
(interest at floating rates) and approximately $3.7 million of short-term
certificates of deposit (interest at fixed rates) at March 31, 2000. Although
interest rate changes would affect the fair value of the Company's certificates
of deposits, the weighted average original term of certificates held by the
Company at March 31, 2000 was approximately eight months. The short-term nature
of these certificates limits the Company's risk of changes in the fair value of
these certificates.

                                    PART II

                               OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On February 11, 1997, fifteen former shareholders of the Company filed a
lawsuit against the Company in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Alabama
styled Peter N. Zachary, et al. v. The Enstar Group, Inc., Case No.
CV-97-257-Gr. The complaint, which deals with actions occurring prior to the
Company's filing for bankruptcy in 1991, alleges that the Company along with its
then principal officers and others defrauded the plaintiffs in violation of the
Alabama Securities Act and other Alabama statutory provisions. The plaintiffs
seek compensatory damages in the amount of their alleged losses of approximately
$2 million and unspecified punitive damages. The complaint is virtually
identical to a complaint brought by these plaintiffs against the Company's
former chairman, former president and others in December 1991, during the
pendency of the Company's bankruptcy case and prior to the confirmation of the
Company's Second Amended Plan of Reorganization, as modified (the
"Reorganization Plan"). The plaintiffs allege that the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Middle District of Alabama (the "Bankruptcy Court") issued an
order on January 15, 1997, allowing them to litigate their claims against the
Company. The Bankruptcy Court's order actually held that the plaintiffs could
not bring a late claim against the Company in its bankruptcy case and then went
on to state that because of facts relating to these particular plaintiffs, they
were not bound by the provisions of the Reorganization Plan and their claims
were not subject to discharge under the Bankruptcy Code. On March 17, 1997, the
Company filed a motion to dismiss and/or for summary judgment in response to the
complaint on the basis that the claims asserted are barred by the applicable
statute of limitations. The motion is still pending before the court. In the
event the plaintiffs' claims are not dismissed pursuant to the Company's motion,
the Company intends to contest the plaintiffs' claims vigorously. The Company
cannot, however, reasonably predict the outcome of this litigation.
