                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1998


NOTE 1 -- THE COMPANY

     VDI MEDIA (the "Company") provides broadcast quality video duplication,
distribution and related value-added services including distribution of national
television spot advertising, trailers and electronic press kits. The Company's
services consist of (i) the physical and electronic delivery of broadcast
quality advertising, including spots, trailers, electronic press kits and
infomercials, and syndicated television programming to television stations,
cable television and other end-users nationwide and (ii) a broad range of video
services, including the duplication of video in all formats, element storage,
standards conversions, closed captioning and transcription services, and video
encoding for air play verification purposes. The Company also provides its
customers value-added post production and editing services. The Company is
headquartered in Hollywood, California and has additional facilities in Los
Angeles, Santa Monica, Burbank and San Francisco, California; Chicago, Illinois;
New York, New York; and Dallas, Texas.

     In the first quarter of 1997, the Company completed the sale of 3,120,000
common shares, no par value ("Common Stock"), in an initial public offering (the
"Offering"). Prior to the Offering, the Company had elected S Corporation status
for federal and state income tax purposes. As a result of the Offering, the S
Corporation status terminated. Thereafter, the Company has paid federal and
state income taxes as a C Corporation. The termination of the Company's S
Corporation status resulted in the establishment of a net deferred tax liability
calculated at normal federal and state income rates, causing a one-time non-cash
charge of $185,000 against earnings for additional income tax expense in the
quarter ended March 31, 1997.

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for reporting interim financial
information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 1998. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the
Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.

NOTE 2 -- ACQUISITIONS

     On June 9, 1998, the Company acquired all of the assets of The Dub House,
Inc. ("The Dub House"). The Dub House distributes broadcast media for
advertising agencies, independent producers and other broadcast media providers.
As consideration, the Company will pay the owners of The Dub House a maximum of
$1.7 million, of which $1.5 million was paid in the second quarter of 1998. The
remaining balance is subject to earn-out provisions which are predicated upon
The Dub House attaining certain sales goals, as set forth in the purchase
agreement, through June 1999.

     On June 12, 1998, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of
All Post, Inc. ("All Post"). All Post provides full service duplication,
distribution, video content storage and ancillary services to major motion
picture studios and independent production companies for both domestic and
international use. As consideration, the Company will pay All Post a


<PAGE>

maximum of $14.5 million, of which $13.0 million was paid in the second quarter
of 1998. The remaining balance is subject to earn-out provisions which are
predicated upon All Post attaining certain gross profit goals, as set forth in
the purchase agreement, through June 1999.

     The Company has accounted for both of these acquisitions as purchases.
Goodwill arising from these transactions is being amortized over twenty years.
The contingent purchase price for each of these transactions, to the extent
earned, will be recorded as an increase to goodwill. The consolidated statement
of income includes both The Dub House and All Post's results of operations from
the effective date of their acquisitions.

NOTE 3 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     The Company has signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all
of the assets of Dubs, Inc. for an initial purchase price of $11.0 million 
plus a contingent earn-out payment of up to $3.3 million of common stock. The 
agreement is subject to certain closing conditions and is expected to close 
on November 17, 1998. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. 
Goodwill arising from this transaction will be amortized over 20 years.

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

     In connection with the "safe-harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company, in its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1997, outlined cautionary statements identifying
important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially from those projected in forward-looking statements made by, or on
behalf of, the Company. Such forward-looking statements, as made within this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, should be considered in conjunction with the
information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and the risk factors set forth in the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on February 19, 1997 and Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 1998. Factors that could
cause future results to differ from the Company's expectations include, but are
not limited to, the following: competition, customer and industry concentration,
dependence on technological developments, risks related to expansion and
acquisition of new businesses, dependence on key personnel, fluctuating results
and seasonality and control by management.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1997

     REVENUES. Revenues increased by $5.2 million or 46.0% to $16.4 million for
the three month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $11.2 million for
the three month period ended September 30, 1997 primarily due to the
acquisitions of Multimedia Services, Fast Forward and All Post and also due to
the increased use of the Company's services by existing customers and the
addition of new customers. The increased use of the Company's services and
addition of new customers was primarily due to (i) the availability of new
services and capacity resulting from the acquisition of Multimedia Services,
Fast Forward and All Post and (ii) substantially increased marketing of the
Company's services.

     GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased $2.3 million or 57.4% to $6.5 million
for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $4.2 million for
the three month period ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues,
gross profit increased to 39.8% from 36.9%. The increase in gross profit as a
percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to (i) lower direct materials
costs from scale buying and lower direct services costs due to changes in the
mix of services provided, and (ii) lower depreciation expenses which are
allocated to cost of goods sold.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. Selling, general and
administrative expense increased $1.0 million or 37.3% to $3.5 million for the
three month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $2.5 million for the
three month period ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues,
selling, general and administrative expense decreased to 21.1% for the three
month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to 22.4% for the three month
period ended September 30, 1997. This decrease was due to a reduction in the
cost of administrative personnel, as a percent of sales, resulting from the
ongoing integration of the Company's subsidiaries and the subsequent 
elimination of staff. The decrease in administrative wages was offset in part 
by increased amortization expense related to goodwill from acquired companies.

     OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased $1.5 million or 88.3% to $3.1
million for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $1.6
million for the three month period ended September 30, 1997.


<PAGE>

     INCOME TAXES. The Company provided for taxes in the third
quarter of 1998 at its expected effective tax rate of 41%.

     NET INCOME. Net income for the three month period ended September 30, 1998
increased $0.6 million or 70.0% to $1.6 million compared to $1.0 million in
1997. Such increase is primarily attributable to the previously described
factors.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1997

     REVENUES. Revenues increased by $13.8 million, or 48.2%, to $42.3 million
for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $28.5 million for
the nine month period ended September 30, 1997. This increase in revenue was
primarily due to increased demand for services resulting from (i) the
integration of new clients and availability of new services resulting from the
acquisitions of Multi-Media Services, Fast Forward and All Post, and (ii) the
increased use of the company's services by existing clients.

     GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased $5.7 million, or 51.2%, to $16.7
million for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $11.0
million for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of
revenues, gross profit increased from 38.7% to 39.5%. The increase in gross
profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to lower direct
materials costs from scale buying and lower depreciation expenses (as a percent
of revenues) which are allocated to cost of goods sold.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. Selling, general and
administrative expense increased $2.2 million, or 32.6%, to $9.0 million for the
nine month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $6.8 million for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues, selling,
general and administrative expense decreased to 21.2% for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1998 compared to 23.7% for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expense
as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to (i) the elimination of several
selling, general and administrative personnel as acquired companies were
integrated into the Company, and (ii) the spreading of fixed overhead 
expenses over a higher revenue base in the nine month period ended September 
30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.

     OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased $3.5 million, or 81.8%, to
$7.8 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 compared to $4.3
million for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997.

     INCOME TAXES. Prior to the Offering, the Company operated as an S 
Corporation. As such, the Company was not responsible for federal income 
taxes and provided for state income taxes at reduced rates. As a result of 
the Offering, the Company's S Corporation status terminated. Accordingly, the 
Company has since provided, and will continue to provide, for all income 
taxes at higher statutory rates. These factors resulted in an effective tax 
rate for 1997 of approximately 40%. The Company provided for taxes at a rate 
of 41% in the first nine months of 1998.

     NET INCOME. Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998
increased $1.7 million, or 61.2%, to $4.3 million compared to $2.6 million for
the nine month period ended September 30, 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     This discussion should be read in conjunction with the notes to the
financial statements and the corresponding information more fully described in
the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.

     At September 30, 1998, the Company's cash and cash equivalents aggregated
$2.3 million. The Company's operating activities provided cash of $3.1 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

     The Company's investing activities used cash of $21 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, including $13.6 million for the acquisition of
All Post, and $1.5 million for the acquisition of The Dub House. The Company
also spent approximately $4.6 million for the addition and replacement of
capital equipment necessary to accommodate increased customer demands for the
Company's services, and for investments in management information systems. The
Company's business is equipment intensive, requiring periodic expenditures of
cash or the incurrence of additional debt to acquire additional fixed assets in
order to increase capacity or replace existing equipment. The Company expects to
spend approximately $1.0 million on capital expenditures during the last quarter
of 1998 to upgrade and replace equipment and management information systems.

     The Company's financing activities provided cash of $17.2 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 1998. Cash flows from financing activities
include a $16.9 million increase in the Company's revolving credit agreement
with Union Bank of California, N.A. (Union Bank), used primarily to fund the 
purchases of All Post and The Dub House.

     The Company has a $20.0 million revolving credit agreement with Union Bank
which expired on September 30, 1998. There was $18.0 million outstanding under
the Union Bank credit agreement at September 30, 1998. Management is currently
in the process of negotiating a $35.0 million credit facility to replace its 
existing credit agreement which it expects to complete by November 17, 1998.

     In June 1998 the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and
assumed certain liabilities of All Post (the "All Post Acquisition"). The
purchase price consisted of an initial payment of $13.0 million plus an as yet
undetermined contingent purchase price. The contingent purchase price is to be
earned and paid based on the gross profit (as defined) resulting from the
financial results of All Post as a separate division of the Company. The
contingent purchase price, in total, is limited to $1.5 million. The excess of
the initial consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed of approximately $6.5 million has been allocated to
goodwill.

     The Company also acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed
certain liabilities of The Dub House (the "Dub House Acquisition"), located in
Dallas, Texas, in June 1998. The purchase price consisted of an initial payment
of $1.5 million plus an undetermined contingent purchase price. The contingent
purchase price is to be earned and paid based on the sales growth attained by
The Dub House as a separate division of the Company. The contingent purchase
price, in total, is limited to $0.2 million. The excess of the initial
consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
of approximately $1.0 million has been allocated to goodwill.

     Goodwill arising from the All Post Acquisition and the Dub House
Acquisition (the "Acquisitions") will be amortized over 20 years. The contingent
purchase price, to the extent


<PAGE>

earned, will be treated as an increase in goodwill. The Acquisitions were
accounted for by the Company under the purchase method of accounting.

     Management believes that cash available on its revolving credit agreement
(as proposed to be amended) and generated from its ongoing operations and 
existing working capital will fund necessary capital expenditures and provide 
adequate working capital for at least the next twelve months.

     The Company, from time to time, considers the acquisition of businesses
complementary to its current operations. Consummation of any such acquisition or
other expansion of the business conducted by the Company may be subject to the
Company securing additional financing.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

     The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue is the result of computer programs using a
two-digit format, as opposed to four digits, to indicate the year. Such computer
systems will be unable to interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which could
cause a system failure or other computer errors, leading to disruptions in
operations. The Company recently developed a three-phase program for Y2K
information systems compliance. Phase I is to identify those systems with which
the Company has exposure to Y2K issues. Phase II is the development and
implementation of action plans to be Y2K compliant in all areas by late 1998.
Phase III, to be completed by mid-1999, is the final testing of each major area
of exposure to ensure compliance. The Company has identified three major areas
determined to be critical for successful Y2K compliance: (1) financial and
informational system applications, (2) manufacturing applications and (3)
third-party relationships.

     The Company, in accordance with Phase I of the program, is in the process
of conducting an internal review of all systems and contacting all software
suppliers to determine major areas of exposure to Y2K issues. In the financial
and information system area, a number of applications have been identified as
being Y2K compliant due to their recent implementation. The Company's core
financial and reporting systems are not Y2K compliant but were already scheduled
for replacement by mid-1999. In the manufacturing area, the Company is in the
process of identifying areas of exposure. The Company plans to substantially 
complete its survey of third party systems by the end of 1998.

     The Company believes it will cost approximately $2.0 million to replace the
