                     CINEMARK USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (Unaudited)

1.   Interim Financial Statements

      The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Company, without audit, according to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these
interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial position and
results of operations as of and for the periods indicated.

      These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
annual financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December
31, 1996 included in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K by the Company under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on March 31, 1997.

      Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.

2.   FAS 52 - Highly Inflationary Economies

      Beginning in 1997, generally accepted accounting principles require that
the U.S. dollar be used as the functional currency of the Company's Mexican
subsidiary for U.S. reporting purposes. As a result, fluctuations in the peso
during 1997 affecting the Company's investment in Mexico will be charged to
exchange gain or loss rather than to the cumulative adjustment account.

3.   FAS 128 - Earnings per Share

      In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
Share", which will be effective for the Company for the quarter and annual
period ended December 31, 1997. SFAS No. 128 requires expanded disclosure of
earnings per share, including presentation of basic and diluted earnings per
share computations for income from continuing operations. The Company's
computations of primary and fully diluted earnings per share under APB Opinion
No. 15 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
approximate the computation of diluted earnings per share under SFAS No. 128.

4.   Senior Subordinated Notes

      In June 1997, the Company issued $75 million of Senior Subordinated
Notes, substantially identical to the existing Senior Subordinated Notes, at a
premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount.

Revenues

     Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 increased to $121.2
million from $97.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, a 24.8%
increase. The increase in revenues for the third quarter is primarily
attributable to a 15.0% increase in attendance as the result of the net
addition of 166 screens since the third quarter of 1996 and a combined increase
of 6.4% in admissions and concessions per patron. Revenues per average screen
increased 10.4% to $80,132 for the third quarter of 1997 from $72,599 for the
third quarter of 1996.

     The Company generated revenues for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 (the "1997 period") of $327.0 million compared to $255.5 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 (the "1996 period), a 28.0% increase. The
increase in revenues for the 1997 period is primarily attributable to a 17.0%
increase in attendance as the result of the net addition of 166 screens since
the third quarter of 1996 and a combined increase of 8.3% in admissions and
concessions per patron. Revenues per average screen increased 11.6% to $219,450
in the 1997 period from $196,661 in the 1996 period.

Cost of Operations

     Cost of operations, as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 72.8% in the
third quarter of 1997 from 76.9% in the third quarter of 1996. The decrease as
a percentage of revenues resulted from decreases during the quarter in salaries
and wages as a percentage of revenues to 12.6% in 1997 from 13.7% in 1996, a
decrease in facility leases as a percentage of revenues to 8.2% in 1997 from
9.8% in 1996 and a decrease in utilities and other as a percentage of revenues
to 11.4% in 1997 from 13.5% in 1996. The decreases were partially offset by an
increase in concession expense as a percentage of concession revenues to 17.0%
in 1997 from 15.5% in 1996.

                                       7


<PAGE>

     Cost of operations, as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 73.9% in the
1997 period from 76.3% in the 1996 period. The decrease as a percentage of
revenues resulted from a decrease in concession supplies as a percentage of
concession revenues to 15.3% in 1997 from 16.3% in 1996, a decrease in facility
leases as a percentage of revenues to 8.7% in 1997 from 10.0% in 1996 and a
decrease in utilities and other as a percentage of revenues to 13.0% in 1997
from 14.1% in 1996.

General and Administrative Expenses

     General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues,
increased to 6.0% in the third quarter of 1997 from 5.4% in the third quarter
of 1996. The absolute level of general and administrative expenses increased to
$7.2 million in the third quarter of 1997 from $5.2 million in the third
quarter of 1996. The increase in general and administrative expenses is
attributed to costs (primarily salaries and wages and consulting services)
associated with the Company's expansion program.

     For the 1997 period, general and administrative costs decreased as a
percentage of revenues to 6.3% from 6.5% for the 1996 period. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the 28.0% increase in revenues from screen additions
and increases in admissions and concessions per patron. The absolute level of
general and administrative expenses increased to $20.5 million for the 1997
period from $16.6 million for the 1996 period. The increase in general and
administrative expenses is attributed to costs (primarily salaries and wages)
associated with the Company's expansion program and compensation costs
associated with the repurchase of non-qualified stock options.

Depreciation and Amortization

     Depreciation and amortization increased 22.7% to $10.2 million in the
third quarter of 1997 from $8.3 million in the third quarter of 1996. For the
1997 period, depreciation and amortization increased 20.6% to $20.5 million
from $17.0 million in 1996. The increase is a result of the net addition of
$158.0 million in theatre property and equipment since the third quarter of
1996, a 48.5% increase. The difference in the percentage increase in
depreciation and amortization compared to the increase in theatre property and
equipment is a result of the timing of when the additions were placed in
service during the period.

Interest Expense

     Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue cost and
debt discount, increased 50.3% during the third quarter of 1997 to $9.4 million
(including capitalized interest to properties under construction) from $6.2
million (including capitalized interest)in the third quarter of 1996. Interest
costs for the 1997 period, including amortization of debt issue cost and debt
discount, increased 44.0% to $25.0 million (including capitalized interest)
from $17.4 million (including capitalized interest) in the 1996 period. The
increase in interest costs incurred for the third quarter of 1997 and the 1997
period was due principally to an increase in average debt outstanding resulting
from borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility and the issuance of the
Senior Subordinated Notes.

Income Taxes

     Income taxes increased to $3.4 million for the third quarter of 1997 from
$2.6 million in the third quarter of 1996 and increased to $10.3 million for
the 1997 period from $8.0 million in the 1996 period. The Company's effective
tax rate for the third quarter of 1997 was 44.2% compared to 49.2% for the
third quarter of 1996. The effective tax rate for the 1997 period increased to
45.1% from 44.9% in 1996. The change in the effective tax rate was primarily a
result of the relative level of goodwill amortization

                                       8


<PAGE>

and foreign losses. The effective tax rates reflect the full reserve of the
potential tax benefit associated with the loss incurred by Cinemark Mexico.

Other Gains and Losses

     Other gains and losses for the 1996 period of $3.3 million is primarily
attributable to a gain from the settlement of litigation.

Extraordinary Items

     In the third quarter of 1996, the Company issued $200 million aggregate
principle of 9-5/8 Senior Subordinated Notes, a portion of the proceeds of
$193.2 million (net of discount, fees and expenses) were used to repurchase
98.7% of the Company's $125 million 12% Senior Notes at a price of $1,098.33
per $1,000 principle amount. As a result, an extraordinary loss of $8.8 million
(net of related tax benefit) was recognized in connection with the premium paid
and the write-off of the unamortized debt issue cost associated with the Senior
Notes repurchased.

     The 1996 Period also includes an extraordinary loss of $.3 million (net of
related tax benefit) which was recognized in connection with the writeoff of
the Company's existing bank line of credit which was replaced with a new
revolving and term credit facility in February 1996.

Net Income

    Net income of $4.3 million for the third quarter of 1997 and net loss of
$6.2 million for the third quarter of 1996 included the consolidated losses of
Cinemark International of $.6 million (net of minority interest) and the
consolidated income of Cinemark International of $25 thousand (net of minority
interest), respectively. Net income of $12.4 million for the 1997 period and
$.7 million for the 1996 period includes the consolidated losses of Cinemark
International of $1.7 million (net of minority interest) and $1.1 million (net
of minority interest), respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's revenues are collected in cash, primarily through box office
receipts and the sale of concession items. Because its revenues are received in
cash prior to the payment of related expenses, the Company has an operating
"float" and, as a result, historically has not required traditional working
capital financing.

    The Company's theatres are typically equipped with modern projection and
sound equipment, with approximately 68% of the screens operated by the Company
having been built in the past six years. The Company's investing activities
have been principally in connection with new theatre openings and acquisitions
of existing theatres and theatre circuits. From January 1, 1997 to November 7,
1997, the Company opened in the U.S. nine theatres (128 screens)and has 15
theatres (249 screens) under construction. In addition, as of November 7, 1997,
the Company has 7 theatres (129 screens) scheduled to begin construction within
the next year for scheduled completion by the end of 1998. Certain of these
theatres will be megaplexes which may cost in excess of $15 million per
theatre. The Company currently estimates that its capital expenditures for the
development of these approximately 500 screens in the U.S. in 1997 and 1998
will be approximately $325 million. As of November 7, 1997, the Company had
expended approximately $125 million toward the development of these screens.
The Company plans to fund capital expenditures for its development from cash
flow from operations and borrowings under the Credit Facility. Actual
expenditures for theatre development and acquisitions during 1997 and 1998 are
subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities for
expansion of the Company's theatre circuit.

     On August 15, 1996, the Company issued $200 million of Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2008 (the "Subordinated Notes"). The Subordinated Notes bear interest
at the rate of 9- 5/8% per annum, payable semi-annually on February 1 and
August 1 of each year. The Subordinated Notes were issued at 99.553% of the
principal face amount (a discount of $4.47 per $1,000 principal amount). The
net proceeds to the Company from the issuance of the Subordinated Notes (net of
discount, fees and expenses) were approximately $193.2 million. The proceeds
from the Subordinated Notes were used to repurchase 98.7% of the Company's $125
million 12% Senior Notes due 2002 ("Senior Notes") pursuant to a tender offer
which expired on August 15, 1996. The Senior Notes were purchased at a premium
of the $1,098.33 (including a consent fee of $25) per $1,000 principal amount,
plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the date of repurchase. Excess proceeds
were utilized to reduce borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility and for
general corporate purposes.

     On June 2, 1997 the Company redeemed the remaining outstanding Senior
Notes ($1.6 million). The Senior Notes were redeemed at a premium of $1,060 per
$1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the date of
redemption.

     On June 26, 1997, the Company issued $75 million of Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2008 ("New Subordinated Notes"). The New Subordinated Notes are
substantially identical in all material respects to the Subordinated Notes,
including rate of interest. The New Subordinated Notes were issued at 103.0% of
the principal face amount (a premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount).
The Company used $70 million of the proceeds to reduce the Company's
indebtedness under the Credit Facility.

     On December 12, 1996, the Company replaced its existing credit facility
with the new credit facility ("Credit Facility") through a group of banks for
which Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association acts as
Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility provides for loans to the Company of
up to $225.0 million in the aggregate. The Credit Facility is a reducing
revolving credit facility at the end of each quarter during the calendar year
2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003, requiring reductions in the aggregate commitment in
the amount of $8,437,500, $11,250,000, $14,062,500 and $22,500,000,
respectively. The Company is required to prepay all loans outstanding in excess
of the aggregate commitment from time to time. The Credit Facility is secured
by a pledge of a a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the
Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, funds borrowed currently
bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Offshore Rate (as defined in the
Credit Facility) or the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Facility, as the
case may be), plus the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Credit Facility).
As of November 7, 1997, the Company had borrowed $138 million under the Credit
Facility and the effective interest rate on such borrowings was 6.7% per annum.

    In April 1997, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 1,242 additional
shares of Class B Common Stock issued to option holders upon the exercise of
options in April 1996. The aggregate purchase price for such shares was $2.2
million. In May and June 1997, options to acquire an aggregate of 737 shares of
Class B Common Stock were repurchased by the Company for an aggregate purchase
price of $1.3 million.

    In 1992, the Company formed Cinemark International, Inc. (f/k/a Cinemark
II, Inc.) ("Cinemark International") to develop and acquire theatres in
international markets. Substantially all of the Company's operations outside of
the United States and Canada will be conducted through Cinemark International,
an unrestricted subsidiary under the Company's Indenture governing the Senior
Subordinated Notes, and its subsidiaries. As of November 7, 1997, the Company
has contributed $74.2 million to the capital of Cinemark International to fund
theatre development principally in Latin America. Cinemark International plans
to invest up to an additional $50 million in international ventures,
principally in Latin America, over the next two to three years. The Company
anticipates that investments in excess of Cinemark International's available
cash will be funded by the Company or by debt or equity financing to be
provided by third parties directly to Cinemark International or its
subsidiaries.

Cinemark Mexico Exchange Offer

      As of September 30, 1996, Cinemark Mexico had outstanding (i) $22.4
million aggregate principal amount of Cinemark Mexico Notes and (ii) warrants
to purchase 379,073 shares of common stock of the Company (the "Warrants"). On
September 30, 1996, Cinemark Mexico completed the Exchange Offer pursuant to
which Cinemark Mexico and the holders of all of the Cinemark Mexico Notes
exchanged all of the Cinemark Mexico Notes for a new issuance of the New Mexico
Notes. The form and terms of the New Mexico Notes are identical in all material
respects to the Cinemark Mexico Notes except that interest on the New Mexico
Notes may, on each interest payment date from February 1, 1997 through and
including February 1, 2000, be paid at the option of Cinemark Mexico in cash or
through the issuance of additional notes of the same series (the "Additional
Notes"). If the Company elects to pay accrued interest in Additional Notes in
lieu of cash, interest during the relevant interest period shall accrue at the
rate of 13% per annum. Holders of Warrants to purchase 22,222 shares of Common
Stock of Cinemark Mexico elected not to participate in the Exchange Offer. The
purpose of the Exchange Offer was to exchange New Securities for all
outstanding Cinemark Mexico Notes in order to improve Cinemark Mexico's and
Cinemark de Mexico's financial and operating flexibility. The Company exercised
its option to pay Additional Notes for the interest periods ended February 1,
1997 and August 1, 1997.

of the holders of the Cinemark Mexico Notes to amend the Indenture. The Company

(the "Third Supplemental Indenture") which, among other things, (i) provided
for the issuance of the New Mexico Notes and the Additional Notes and (ii)
amended certain restrictions relating to financial ratios with which the

Flow Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Indenture) of 2.0 to 1.0 beginning after
December 31, 1999.
