BUSINESS GENERAL Unitel Video, Inc. (the "COMPANY") provides a full range of services to the video communications industry for the recording, editing and duplication of television programs, commercials and corporate and other communications on videotape. The Company's services are provided primarily in the following areas: studio videotape recording, mobile videotape recording and live telecasting, film to videotape transfer, editing, computer graphics and videotape duplication. The Company also designs and produces custom CD-ROM, CD- I, videodisc and networked multimedia presentations. The Company's services are provided at facilities located in New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago and through the Company's Mobile division based in Pittsburgh. The Company's Mobile division provides "on-location" services, including technical personnel, for videotape recording and live telecasting of sports, cultural and other events throughout North America. As the Company is in a service industry, it does not use raw materials. It does, however, use videotape. Videotape is readily available from numerous sources and the Company has not experienced, nor does it anticipate experiencing, difficulty in obtaining videotape for its operations. In addition, the Company has service contracts with its customers, generally for facilities and personnel at specific times or on a project or job-by-job basis (as more fully described below under the caption "Marketing") and, accordingly, does not have backlog as such. The Company's cost structure is such that depreciation, selling expenses and general and administrative expenses do not generally fluctuate from quarter to quarter during a fiscal year based on sales volume. Furthermore, a majority of production costs are fixed. Accordingly, relatively small variations in quarterly sales historically have resulted in disproportionately greater variations in net earnings. In part due to the foregoing, during fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company recognized a significantly greater proportion of net earnings in the first quarter as compared to the other quarters of the fiscal year. See Note L to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. SERVICES STUDIO VIDEOTAPE RECORDING. The Company provides the studios, equipment and skilled technical personnel needed to record television programs, commercials and corporate and other videotape communications. The equipment includes color television cameras, videotape recorders, sound monitoring and mixing equipment and lighting equipment. The Company does not generally provide program direction or other artistic or non-technical production services, such as the preparation of scripts, the hiring of performers or the supplying of special props or scenery. The Company operates nine studios in New York City. Among the programs produced at the Company's studio facilities are "The Sally Jessy Raphael Show", "Inside Edition", "The Rush Limbaugh Show", "The Rolonda Watts Show", "American Journal", "The Gordon Elliot Show", "The Mark Walberg Show" and "The Carnie Wilson Show". Studio recording accounted for approximately 16%, 15% and 16% of the Company's revenues during the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. 3 MOBILE VIDEOTAPE RECORDING AND LIVE TELECASTING. The Company's Mobile division provides videotape recording and live telecasting services "on- location" by transporting videotape and other related equipment in its mobile vehicles. These vehicles have been designed to serve as the production control center for events in sports arenas, concert halls, theaters and other locations. The Company also arranges for the skilled technical personnel required to perform these services. The Company's ten mobile vehicles are equipped to travel on a continuous basis throughout North America and can be maintained in the field. The Company's Mobile division accounted for approximately 21%, 19% and 18% of the Company's revenues during the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. In February 1995, the Company acquired the assets of Burbank, California based GC & Co. which added three mobile units to the Company's fleet of seven. Some of the events handled by the Company's mobile production units include "Live from the Met", "Live from Lincoln Center", "The Grammy Awards", "The Emmy Awards", "The Academy Awards", major golf and tennis tournaments, broadcast of Pittsburgh Pirates, Montreal Expos and Toronto Blue Jays major league baseball games, Major League Baseball's Allstar, Playoff and World Series games and the international broadcast of the "Super Bowl". FILM TO VIDEOTAPE TRANSFER. The Company provides the facilities and technical personnel for transferring 16mm and 35mm motion picture positive and negative film and slides to videotape. Through the use of computers, the color of the picture may be corrected, altered or enhanced frame by frame to meet client needs. Film to videotape transfer accounted for approximately 9%, 9% and 10% of the Company's revenues during the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company has performed this service for major theatrical motion pictures such as "Waterworld", "Batman Forever" and "Congo", and television programs such as "Murder, She Wrote" and "Homicide". EDITING. The Company provides editing equipment and skilled personnel required to perform the editing, special optical and audio effects, titling and other technical work necessary to produce a master videotape suitable for broadcast, cablecast, duplication or other distribution. Using computer- controlled electronic editing equipment, video and audio tape recorders and special effects and titling equipment, videotape recorded by the Company or others is processed into a finished product. Additionally, the Company provides creative editorial and editorial supervision through the post production process and consultative storyboard services directly to advertising agencies. Editing accounted for approximately 35%, 37% and 40% of the Company's revenues during the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Among the programs edited at the Company's facilities are " Star Trek:Voyager", "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine", "Grace Under Fire", "Cybill", "The Simpsons" and "Homicide". COMPUTER GRAPHICS. The Company offers creative consultation, technical assistance and full-service facilities for the creation of computer-generated graphics, special effects and animation in the digital format in both 2-D and 3- D. These services accounted for approximately 9% of the Company's revenues in fiscal 1995 and 10% during each of the fiscal years ended August 31, 1994 and 1993. The Company's projects in this area include various commercials for Blockbuster Video, Sharp Electronics, Subway, McDonalds, Procter Gamble, General Mills and Oldsmobile. 4 VIDEOTAPE DUPLICATION. The Company furnishes videotape duplication services in all formats, including formats available for broadcast and cablecast in the United States as well as the multiple formats used abroad. Duplication services accounted for approximately 4%, 5% and 6% of the Company's revenues during the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA PRODUCTION. The Company designs and produces custom CD-ROM, CD-I, videodisc and networked multimedia presentations for clients in the publishing, financial services, pharmaceutical, entertainment, advertising, retail, telecommunications and utility industries. Extensive use of other Company resources are integrated into the productions, including video compression, digital to video transfers, 3-D computer graphic creation and studio and location recording. Interactive multimedia production accounted for approximately 1% of the Company's revenues during each of the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993. MARKETING The Company markets its services principally to cable television program suppliers, independent producers, national television networks, local television stations, motion picture studios, advertising agencies, program syndicators and distributors through the direct efforts of its internal sales personnel and through advertising in certain trade publications. The Company has no material patents. The Company markets its services through the use of the Unitel, Editel and Windsor names. Customers for editing services, film-to-tape transfer, computer graphics and videotape recording of television commercials generally make arrangements for the Company's services without significant advance notice, on a project or job-by-job basis. Customers for studio and "on-location" videotape recording or live telecasting of programs generally make arrangements longer in advance of the time when the facilities and services are required. The Company has entered into arrangements with several customers for periods ranging up to three years to provide editing, mobile videotape recording and/or studio videotape recording services. No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total sales for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1995. COMPETITION The video services industry is highly competitive. Certain videotape service businesses (both independent companies and divisions of diversified companies) provide most of the same services provided by the Company, while others specialize in one or several of these services. Editing and videotape recording services are also subject to competition from the film industry. While the Company provides the facilities for the transfer of film to videotape, it does not perform any services directly on film. Many competitors of the Company, some with greater financial resources, are located in the New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago areas, the principal markets for the Company's services other than "on-location" video services. "On-location" video services provided by the Company compete on a nationwide basis with companies located throughout North America. 5 The Company competes on the basis of the overall quality of the services it provides, state-of-the-art equipment, breadth of services, reputation in the industry and location. The Company also competes on the basis of its ability to attract and retain qualified, highly skilled personnel. The Company believes that prices for its services are competitive within its industry, although some competitors may offer certain of their services at lower rates than the Company. The video services industry has been and is likely to continue to be subject to technological change to which the Company must respond in order to remain competitive. EMPLOYEES At August 31, 1995, the Company had 474 full-time employees. The Company's Unitel-New York division post-production personnel (22 employees) are members of the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians, AFL-CIO, under a contract with the Company which expires in April 1997. The technical personnel of the Company's Editel-Los Angeles division (44 employees) are represented by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees ("IATSE"), under a contract which expires in November 1997. A portion of the Company's Editel-New York technical personnel (44 employees) are represented by IATSE under a three year contract which expired in May 1994. Negotiations for a new contract, which are currently underway, have historically been completed after the expiration of the previous contract. A portion of the Company's Editel-New York administrative staff (8 employees) are also represented by IATSE under a three year contract which expired in December 1994. Negotiations for a new contract, which are currently underway have historically been completed after the expiration of the previous contract. The Company believes that its employee relations are generally satisfactory. DEVELOPMENTS In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" which provides guidance on when to assess and how to measure impairment of long-lived assets, certain intangibles and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain indentifiable intangibles to be disposed of. The Company adopted this statement as of August 31, 1995. The Company has decided to focus its resources toward providing services to the entertainment and corporate communications areas, which represents the Company's strength. As part of the strategy, the Company has decided to sell its Editel New York, Editel Chicago and Editel Los Angeles divisions, which specialize in the highly competitive commercial advertising portion of the video facilities industry. During the 1995 fiscal year, the three Editel divisions incurred a pretax loss of $3,682,000. As a result the Company identified property, plant and equipment associated with these divisions with a carrying value of approximately $24,000,000 that it no longer needed for its current and future operations, and during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995 committed to a plan to dispose of them. Accordingly, the Company began marketing these divisions to potential buyers and plans to sell them. Although the Company intends to sell these assets within one year there is no assurance that it will be able to do so, accordingly these assets are classified in the balance sheet as long-term. The Company estimated the revised value to be approximately $19,300,000. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $4,700,000 in 1995 on these assets, which was included in 6 impairment charges. The Company intends to operate these divisions until a sale is consummated. The Company reevaluated its investment in its Windsor division in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995 and determined that based upon it's operating results, the goodwill associated with the purchase of this division and certain property, plant and equipment that will not provide any future benefits to the Company were impaired. The Company recognized an impairment charge of approximately $3,000,000 included in impairment charges during the fourth quarter which represents the remaining balance of these assets. In May of 1995, the Company adopted a plan to downsize the operations of its Editel Chicago division and reorganize and reduce its corporate management which resulted in recording a restructuring charge of $400,000 which is comprised of severance and early retirement expense. In fiscal 1995 the restructuring liability was reduced by approximately $127,000 as a result of severance and retirement payments made during fiscal 1995. As of August 31, 1995, the balance of the restructuring liability was approximately $273,000 and is included in accrued payroll. In February 1995 the Company acquired the business and assets of GC & Co., a Burbank, California based provider of mobile videotape production services. The purchase price of $6,750,000 was financed with $6,000,000 of cash from the proceeds of a $6,500,000 equipment financing from an insurance company lender and a $750,000 subordinated convertible note from the sellers. The subordinated note is convertible into 75,000 of the Company's common shares at a stated conversion price of ten dollars per share. 7 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company is committed to keeping pace with technological developments as well as taking advantage of new business opportunities in the video communications industry. Capital expenditures were $9,738,000 during fiscal 1995 (exclusive of the acquisition of GC & Co. described below) as compared to $15,002,000 and $13,246,000 during fiscal years 1994 and 1993, respectively. Expenditures made during fiscal 1995 were for equipment used in the studio production, post production and computer graphics service areas throughout the Company. The net change in cash in the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $(1,132,000), $285,000 and $469,000, respectively. The decrease in fiscal 1995 was the result of cash provided by operating activities of $8,044,000 and financing activities of $1,510,000 less cash used in investing activities of $10,686,000. The net cash decrease in fiscal 1995 is primarily due to the Company's fixed asset expenditures for the year exceeding the cash generated by operations. The increase in fiscal 1994 was the result of cash provided by operating activities of $10,994,000 and financing activities of $2,602,000 in excess of cash used in investing activities of $13,311,000. The net cash increase in fiscal 1994 is primarily due to the cash generated by the Company's operations and net loan proceeds exceeding the net cash used to purchase capital assets. In December 1995, subsequent to year end, the Company entered into a $26 million revolving credit and term loan agreement with a financial institution, consisting of a $15 million term loan facility and an $11 million revolving credit facility. The $15 million dollar term loan portion of the facility is payable in 59 monthly principal payments of $89,000 through November 2000 and in payments of $3,750,000 at August 31, 1996, $3,750,000 at December 31, 1996 and $2,249,000 at December 2000. The revolving credit portion of the facility is due in full in December 2000. Additionally, in December 1995, the Company obtained a $4,000,000 mortgage on its property located on West 57th Street in New York City, from a bank. The mortgage is payable in equal monthly installments of $22,000 through November 2002, with a final payment of $2,152,000 due in December 2002. The proceeds of the $15 million term loan, the $4 million mortgage and $860,000 from the new revolving credit facility, were used to refinance the term loan ($9,571,000) and revolving credit facility ($9,975,000) and to repay the City of New York Industrial Revenue Bond obligation ($314,000), all then outstanding to the Company's bank lenders. As such, the $9,975,000 outstanding on the revolving credit at August 31, 1995 has been reclassified as long term debt on the accompanying balance sheet to reflect the refinancing of this obligation. The terms of the agreement provide that the lender receive a first lien on all property, equipment and accounts receivable that are not encumbered by another lender. In May of 1995, the Company adopted a plan to downsize the operations of its Editel Chicago division and reorganize and reduce its corporate management which resulted in recording a restructuring charge of $400,000 which is comprised of severance and early retirement expense. The Company 14 anticipates annual cash savings of approximately $1,000,000 in fiscal 1996 related to the downsizing. In fiscal 1995 the restructuring liability was reduced by approximately $127,000 as a result of severance and retirement payments made during fiscal 1995. In February 1995, the Company purchased the business and assets of GC & Co. (formerly known as Greene, Crowe & Company), a Burbank, California based supplier of "on-location" services for the videotaping and live telecasting of concerts, cultural and other events, including the "Academy Awards", the "Grammy Awards" and "The American Music Awards". The purchase price was $6,750,000, consisting of $6,000,000 in cash and $750,000 of convertible subordinated promissory notes. The notes bear interest at 1% over prime and are due in full in August 1997 and are also convertible into the Company's common stock at $10.00 per share. The cash portion of the purchase price was financed by a $4,700,000 five year capital lease with a fixed rate of interest of 8.2%, payable in sixty equal monthly payments of principal and interest of $82,000 and a balloon payment at the end of the lease period of $940,000. Additionally, the Company obtained a $1,800,000 loan with a fixed interest rate of 9.3% payable in sixty equal monthly payments of principal and interest of $33,000 and a balloon payment at the end of the five year period of $360,000. The $500,000 available to the Company from these two financings after the payment of the cash portion of the GC & Co. acquisition price was used to repay a $500,000 note payable to Banta Corporation from the purchase of the Editel Los Angeles building. In October 1993, the Company purchased a building located on West 53rd Street in New York City for a purchase price of $2,800,000. The Company is utilizing the building, which contains approximately 14,000 square feet, as a videotape recording studio. The Company also entered into a $2,700,000 equipment financing agreement with a leasing company in October 1993. The proceeds of this financing were used towards payment of the purchase price of the 53rd Street property. The equipment financing is repayable in 60 monthly installments of $53,000, including principal and interest, at a fixed rate of 7%. The Company obtained a $1,875,000 mortgage financing on this property in June 1994 with a fixed rate of interest of 8.6%. The mortgage principal is payable in equal monthly payments through June, 2004 with options to extend the maturity date through June, 2019. In February 1993, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase from Scanline the building that its Editel-Los Angeles division occupies. The Company therefore has treated the building as owned since February 1993, recording the purchase at the present value of the $3,500,000 purchase price less accrued rent. The Company purchased the building in June 1994 for $3,500,000 with the proceeds of a long term mortgage in the amount of $2,175,000, a $500,000 note due to Scanline and the balance from working capital. The note payable to Scanline was paid in full in February 1995. The mortgage financing is payable monthly over a 15 year period with interest at a rate of 8.9%. On April 8, 1993, the Company sold in an underwritten public offering, 777,273 shares of its Common Stock at a price, net of underwriting commissions, of $13.025 per share. The net proceeds to the Company after underwriting discounts and offering expenses was $9,389,000. In addition to the 777,273 shares sold by the Company were 272,727 shares owned by Scanline which were issued through the conversion of Scanline's 100,000 shares of Series $1.80 Convertible Class A Preferred Stock. The conversion of the preferred shares into common shares was done immediately prior to the closing of the public offering. 15 In connection with certain of its financings, the Company must adhere to particular financial ratios and restrictions including restrictions on future payment of dividends. The Company anticipates that the restrictions will not impair its ability to keep pace with technological developments. The enactment of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 has limited the Company's ability to defer the payment of taxes due to the imposition of an alternative minimum tax which effectively results in the treatment of certain timing differences as tax preference items. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Sales were $83,285,000, $80,498,000 and $79,390,000 for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The fiscal year 1995 sales increase of $2,787,000 was primarily due to revenues generated by the Company's studio production and mobile facilities as a result of the addition of a studio in New York City and the acquisition of the GC & Co. mobile units, which was offset by declines in sales at the company's Editel divisions. In fiscal year 1994, sales increased $1,108,000 which was mostly due to a higher demand for the Company's mobile services. Sales remained flat for the Company's Editel-Chicago and both Los Angeles divisions due to severe price competition in these markets. In 1993, sales increased $16,390,000, of which $14,409,000 was due to the Editel divisions which were included in the Company's operating results for a full year in fiscal 1993. The Company recorded a net loss of $6,547,000 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 1995 and net income of $859,000 and $711,000 in the fiscal years ended August 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, including pre-tax income of $229,000 in 1994 as royalty income or earnings from the Company's interest in Time Logic Systems. The net loss of $6,547,000 for the current fiscal year is due primarily to the pretax charge of $7,681,000 taken for the impairment of assets of the Editel New York, Editel Chicago, Editel Los Angeles and Windsor Video divisions and the pretax charge of $400,000 for the restructuring of the Editel Chicago division. In August 1994, the Company received a piece of equipment with a value of $189,000 in lieu of all future income from its interest in Time Logic Systems. The fiscal 1993 results include a $252,000 increase to income due to the cumulative effect of adopting FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of September 1, 1992. Production costs, the main component of cost of sales, consist primarily of direct labor, equipment maintenance expenses and occupancy costs. The Company's production costs, as a percentage of sales, were 71.1%, 68.4% and 67.6%, for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The increase in production costs for fiscal 1995 as compared with the prior years, is due primarily to an increase in studio and mobile production revenues which incur variable expense at a higher rate than the Company's other services. Production costs increased as a percentage of sales in fiscal 1994 because production costs increased during that year while sales remained flat with the prior year. The increase in production costs as a percentage of sales in fiscal 1993 is similarly due to sales in fiscal 1993 remaining flat with sales in fiscal 1992, on a proforma basis. Since most of the Company's costs are fixed and a large portion of the costs are subject to price increases, flat sales from year to year result in production costs which are an increased percentage of sales. This same dynamic applies for both selling expenses and general and administrative expenses. 16 Depreciation, as a percentage of sales, was 12.1%, 11.5% and 11.0% in fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Depreciation expense increased in 1995 as a result of the $4,750,000 equipment portion of the GC & Co. acquisition and capital expenditures made during the year totaling $9,738,000. Depreciation expense increased as a percentage of sales in 1994 due to the purchase of $15,002,000 in fixed assets during the year. Depreciation expense, during fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993 was offset by gain on disposal of assets of $352,000, $817,000 and $274,000, respectively. Had the gain on disposal of assets been excluded from depreciation expense, depreciation as a percentage of sales for 1995 and 1994 would have been 12.5%, and for 1993 would have been 11.3%. The issue of reclassification is fully addressed in Note I to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Selling expenses, as a percentage of sales, during fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993 were 3.4%, 3.5% and 3.9%, respectively. In 1995 and 1994, selling expenses as a percentage of sales decreased due to significant cost reductions which became effective in 1993. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales during fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993 were 10.6%, 11.8% and 12.8%, respectively. Cost reductions put into effect in 1994, including the addition of in-house counsel and a resulting reduction in professional fee expense, were reflected in fiscal years 1995 and 1994 by a decrease of approximately 1% from each of the prior years. Interest expense, as a percentage of sales, during fiscal years 1995, 1994, and 1993 was 4.4%, 3.0% and 3.5%, respectively. The increase in interest expense in fiscal 1995 was due to additional interest incurred relating to the mortgage financings for the Editel-Los Angeles building purchased by the Company in June 1994 and financing obtained for the acquisition of GC & Co. in February 1995. During fiscal 1995 the Company wrote off $214,000 of deferred financing costs related to its bank debt which was refinanced in December 1995. Additionally, interest rates were significantly higher in 1995 as compared with the prior year resulting in higher interest payments on the floating rate portion of the Company's debt. The decrease in interest expense in 1994 is due to the renegotiation of the rate payable on the Company's indebtedness to its primary bank lenders, a reduction in the amortization of deferred financing costs charged to interest expense and the capitalization of approximately $300,000 of interest relating to construction on the Editel-Los Angeles and 53rd Street, New York City locations. In September 1993 the Company entered into a partnership arrangement with a computer graphics design firm. During fiscal years 1995 and 1994 the Company's 50% share of losses were $29,000 and $65,000, respectively. Additionally, the Company had an outstanding loan to the partnership of $118,000 at August 31, 1995. The Company's effective tax rates were (30%), 43.4% and 50.3% in fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The effective tax rate in 1995 differs from prior years primarily due to the impact of the nondeductible goodwill write off and the impairment of assets charge. (See Note F to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) During those years, the effective rate exceeded the Federal statutory rate of 34.0% due to state and local income taxes, and the effect of certain non-deductible expenses. 17 ITEM 8.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1995, 1994 AND 1993 A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (1) Business -- The Company provides facilities for studio production, videotape editing, mobile production, computer graphics, film-to-tape transfer and duplication of videotape in all formats, to the entire video communications industry. The Company's facilities are used to produce television programs, corporate communications and commercials on videotape. The Company's mobile division provides "on-location" services for the videotape recording and live telecasting of sports, cultural and other events throughout the United States. The Company also designs and produces custom CD-ROM, CD-I, videodisc and networked multimedia presentations. Customers for the Company's services include cable television program suppliers, independent producers, national television networks, local television stations and advertising agencies. (2) Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. (3) Depreciation -- Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of assets which are: 30-40 years for buildings; 15-30 years for building improvements; length of lease for leasehold improvements; 5-7 years for video equipment; 5-7 years for furniture and fixtures; and 3 years for automobiles. Gain on disposal of assets was reclassified to depreciation and amortization expense in 1993. Also, amortization of goodwill was reclassified to depreciation and amortization expense from general and administrative expenses for the same periods. (See Note I to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). (4) Goodwill -- Goodwill relating to acquisitions represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired and is amortized over 15 years. Accumulated amortization at August 31, 1995 totaled $69,000. (See Note K to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). (5) Deferred Financing Costs -- Costs incurred in obtaining long-term debt financing are included in other assets. These costs are being amortized using the interest method over the term of the related obligations. (6) Investment in Affiliate -- Investment in an affiliation in which there is a 50% ownership interest is recorded at cost plus equity in its undistributed earnings. (7) Interest Cost -- The Company had capitalized construction period interest costs of $303,000 in 1994. (8) Income Taxes -- Deferred income taxes arise primarily from the use of different depreciation methods and lives for tax and financial statement purposes, differences in the timing of the deduction for the impairment charge and net operating loss and alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards. (9) Receivables -- The Company grants credit to customers, substantially all of whom are in the entertainment, advertising or corporate communications industries. 28 (10) Reclassification -- In 1993 gain on disposal of assets and amortization of goodwill were reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. (See Note I in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) (11) Earnings per common share were determined by dividing net earnings, by weighted average of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. For the year ended August 31, 1993, the effect of assumed conversion of preferred stock was antidilutive, thus the primary earnings per share are also the fully diluted earnings per share. 29 B.

The term loan portion of the facility is payable in 59 monthly principal payments of $89,000 through November 2000 and in payments of $3,750,000 at August 31, 1996, $3,750,000 at December 31, 1996 and $2,249,000 at December 2000. The revolving credit portion of the facility is due in full in December 2000. If certain assets which collateralize the debt are sold, a portion of the debt must be repaid from the proceeds. Additionally, in November 1995, the Company obtained a $4,000,000 mortgage on its property located on West 57th Street in New York City, from the Company's bank lender. The mortgage is payable in equal monthly installments of $22,000 through November 2002, with a final payment of $2,152,000 due in December 2002. The proceeds of the $15 million term loan, the $4 million mortgage and $860,000 from the new revolving credit facility, were used to refinance the term loan ($9,571,000) and revolving credit facility ($9,975,000) and to repay the City of New York Industrial Revenue Bond obligation ($314,000), all then outstanding to the Company's bank lenders. As such, the $9,975,000 outstanding on the revolving credit at August 31, 1995 has been reclassified as long term debt on the accompanying balance sheet to reflect the refinancing of this obligation. The terms of the agreement provide that the lender receive a first lien on all property, equipment and accounts receivable that are not encumbered by another lender. In June 1994, the Company purchased for $3,500,000 from Scanline the building occupied by the Editel-Los Angeles division. Financing for the purchase consisted of a $2,175,000, 25-year mortgage payable to an insurance company lender, a $500,000 note payable to the seller, Scanline Communications, and the balance from working capital. The note was paid in full in February 1995. In October 1993, the Company purchased for $2,800,000 land and a building located on West 53rd Street, New York City, which has been converted into a videotape recording studio. Financing for the purchase was obtained from a capital lease obligation to an equipment leasing company for $2,700,000. In June 1994, the Company also obtained a mortgage on the West 53rd Street property in the amount of $1,875,000 from a bank. The mortgage loan is payable in equal monthly principal payments through June, 2004 with options to extend the maturity date through June, 2019. Proceeds from this mortgage were used for working capital purposes. Property, equipment and accounts receivable with a carrying value of $66,461,000 at August 31, 1995 are pledged as collateral for all long-term debt outstanding. The agreements relating to certain of these long-term obligations include covenants which, among other terms, place restrictions on the Company as to capital expenditures and the maintenance of certain financial ratios (including minimum levels of net worth and debt-to-equity restrictions, all as defined in the agreements). 31 At August 31, 1995, maturities of long-term debt for the next 5 years after the December refinancing are as follows: YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, --------------------- 1996 $ 5,492,000 1997 5,523,000 1998 1,807,000 1999 1,846,000 2000 5,066,000 2001 and thereafter 5,694,000 ----------- $25,428,000 ----------- ----------- NOTE C - OBLIGATIONS UNDER CAPITAL LEASE AGREEMENTS The Company has entered into various capital lease agreements for video equipment. The leases expire at various times through 2000. Property recorded under capital leases includes the following: August 31, 1995 1994 Video equipment $10,012,000 $2,690,000 Accumulated depreciation ($1,240,000) ($386,000) ----------- ---------- $ 8,772,000 $2,304,000 ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- Future minimum lease payments, as of August 31, 1995 are as follows: Year Ended Capital August 31, leases - ---------- ------ 1996 $ 2,327,000 1997 2,274,000 1998 2,237,000 1999 1,707,000 2000 2,049,000 ----------- Net minimum lease payments 10,594,000 Amount representing interest (1,845,000) ----------- Obligation under capital lease agreements $ 8,749,000 ----------- ----------- Current portion $ 1,685,000 Long-term portion 7,064,000 ----------- $ 8,749,000 ----------- ----------- 32 D. STOCK OPTION PLANS In January 1983, the Company's shareholders approved adoption of an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Incentive Plan") to grant as many as 181,500 shares primarily to key employees. At August 31, 1995 there were 22,700 options outstanding. As of October 1992, options were no longer granted under this plan. In January 1986, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Statutory Plan") to grant as many as 50,000 shares to the Company's non-employee directors. Under the Non-Statutory Plan options to purchase 30,000 shares were outstanding at August 31, 1995. In July 1988, the Company's Board of Directors approved a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Qualified Plan") to grant as many as 125,000 shares primarily to key employees. Options to purchase 105,000 shares granted to several officers under the Non-Qualified Plan were outstanding at August 31, 1995. In July 1992, the Company's shareholders approved adoption of the 1992 Stock Option Plan (the "1992 Plan") to grant as many as 350,000 shares primarily to key employees and non-employee directors. Prior to July 1992, the Company granted options under the plans described above. All future grants will be granted under the 1992 Plan. Options to purchase 187,000 shares were outstanding to key employees and non-employee directors under the 1992 Plan at August 31, 1995. Under all plans, options have generally been granted to purchase stock at the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors. Under the Non-Qualified Plan, the options expire five years after the date of grant and under the Incentive Plan and Non-Statutory Plan, options expire ten years after the date of grant. The status of stock options under the Company's stock option plans is summarized below: Number of Option Price Shares Per Share ------ --------- Options Outstanding August 31, 1993 326,950 $5.75 - $13.18 Granted 5,000 $6.00 Exercised (250) $5.75 Expired and canceled (92,000) $5.875 - $10.81 ------- Options Outstanding August 31, 1994 239,700 $5.75 - $13.18 ------- ------- Granted 34,000 $6.625 - $7.25 Exercised (5,000) $6.50 Expired and canceled (43,000) $5.875 - $13.18 ------- Options Outstanding August 31, 1995 225,700 $5.75 - $13.18 ------- ------- At August 31, 1995 a total of 322,000 shares were reserved for future option grants for all plans and options to purchase 225,700 shares were outstanding. 33 E. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN In June 1987, the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP") obtained financing from a bank amounting to $1,250,000, which was used in acquiring 115,849 shares of newly issued Company stock. The bank loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 10% and is guaranteed by the Company. The ESOP is funded by Company contributions as required to provide the ESOP with the funds necessary to meet its debt service requirements. The loan obligation of the ESOP is considered unearned employee benefit expense and is recorded as a separate reduction of the Company's shareholders' equity. Both the loan obligation and the unearned benefit expense are reduced by the amount of any loan repayments made by the ESOP. The loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest of $17,600 through June 1997 at a fixed rate of 10%. The aggregate principal maturities of the ESOP obligation subsequent to August 31, 1995 are as follows: 1996.............................. $186,000 1997.............................. $152,000 In fiscal 1991, the ESOP purchased 25,810 shares of the Company's Common Stock. These purchases have been financed by a ten-year loan from the Company for $229,193. The loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest at 10%. The Company's related receivable from the ESOP has been classified as a reduction of shareholders' equity. 401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN Effective July 1, 1992, the ESOP merged into the Unitel Video, Inc. Retirement Investment Plan (a 401(k) Plan), which became the Unitel Video, Inc. 401(k) Employee Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan requires the Company to match employee contributions to the 401(k) portion of the Plan in shares of the Company's Common Stock up to the maximum amount set forth in the Plan. The minimum contribution required to be made each year by the Company is the amount necessary to meet its debt service requirements. The Plan combines a 401(k) plan with certain features of an employee stock ownership plan. Total contributions to the ESOP and the Plan for each of the years ended August 31 are as follows: 1995 ............................. $336,000 1994 ............................. $253,000 1993 ............................. $271,000 The Company adopted Statement of Position 93-6 (SOP 93-6), "Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans" during 1995. In accordance with SOP 93-6, compensation cost and liabilities associated with providing the employer's 401(k) match are recognized the way they would be if an ESOP had not been used to fund the benefit. 34 The Plan's compensation expense was $191,000 for the year ended August 31, 1995. A summary of the Plan's shares as of August 31, 1995 is as follows: Allocated shares 75,095 Shares released for allocation 19,234 Unreleased shares 42,939 ------- 137,268 ------- Fair value of unreleased shares at August 31, 1995 $274,000 ------- ------- Prior to adoption of SOP 93-6, the unreleased shares were considered outstanding for the earnings per share computation. Accordingly, for the year ended August 31, 1995, shares were no longer considered outstanding. The effect of adopting SOP 93-6 was not material on the net loss, and resulted in a decrease of approximately 1% on the net loss per share for the twelve months ended August 31, 1995. F. INCOME TAXES: Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets are as follows: August 31, 1995 1994 ---- ---- Current portion of deferred tax assets (liabilities) Employee medical benefits $ 308,000 $ 278,000 Bad debt reserves 452,000 454,000 ---------- ---------- 760,000 732,000 ---------- ---------- Long term portion of deferred tax assets (liabilities) Accrued rent 371,000 425,000 Accrued retirement 491,000 417,000 Net assets held for sale 2,534,000 -- Net operating loss carryforwards 330,000 127,000 ITC carryforwards-Federal and State (net of valuation allowance) 386,000 330,000 AMT credit carryforwards 2,570,000 2,565,000 Other - net 211,000 419,000 Tax over book depreciation (5,148,000) (5,030,000) ---------- ---------- 1,745,000 (747,000) ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset (liability) $2,505,000 $ (15,000) ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- 35 The provision for income taxes is comprised of the following: Year Ended August 31, 1995 1994 1993 ---- ---- ---- Currently payable: Federal $(270,000) $454,000 $552,000 State 36,000 215,000 158,000 ----------- -------- -------- (234,000) 669,000 710,000 Deferred: Federal (1,610,000) 3,000 (328,000) State (950,000) (12,000) 83,000 ----------- -------- -------- (2,560,000) (9,000) (245,000) ----------- -------- -------- $(2,794,000) $660,000 $465,000 ----------- -------- -------- ----------- -------- -------- The Company's effective tax rate was (30%) in 1995 43.4% in 1994 and 50.3% in 1993. The components of the reconciliation of the Company's effective tax rate to the U.S. statutory rate of 34% are as follows: Year Ended August 31, 1995 1994 1993 ---- ---- ---- Tax expense computed at statutory rate $(3,176,000) $ 516,000 $ 314,000 State income tax, net of Federal income tax benefit (607,000) 157,000 160,000 Goodwill 649,000 17,000 17,000 Other 340,000 (30,000) (26,000) ----------- --------- --------- Actual tax expense $(2,794,000) $ 660,000 $ 465,000 ----------- --------- --------- ----------- --------- --------- 36 The Company's total alternative minimum tax credit carryforward is approximately $2,570,000, which can be used against the Company's future regular tax liability. At August 31, 1995, the Company had available for tax purposes in excess of $2,000,000 of State of New York tax credits that will expire from August 31, 1996 through August 31, 2002. The State of New York limits the use of these credits on an annual basis. For financial reporting purposes, a valuation allowance of $1,900,000 has been recognized to offset the deferred tax assets related to those carryforwards for fiscal year ended August 31, 1995. The deferred tax asset relating to the net operating loss carryforward is attributable to the unused portion of a federal net operating loss generated in fiscal 1993 of $515,000 which is scheduled to expire in 2008, as well as state net operating losses generated in fiscal 1995 of various amounts scheduled to expire at various times through 2008. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the utilization of Federal net operating loss and other credit carryforwards when an ownership change, as defined by the tax law, occurs. Generally, this occurs when a greater than 50 percentage point change in ownership occurs. Accordingly, the actual utilization of the alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards and other deferred tax assets for tax purposes may be limited annually to the percentage (about 6%) of the fair market value of the Company at the time of any such ownership changes. G. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: Operating Leases -- The following is a schedule by years of future minimum rental payments under operating leases that have an initial non-cancelable lease term in excess of one year: 1996 $ 4,807,000 1997 4,531,000 1998 4,489,000 1999 3,310,000 2000 2,317,000 2001 and thereafter 5,626,000 ----------- $25,080,000 ----------- ----------- The aggregate rental expense for the years ended August 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993 was $3,867,000, $3,381,000 and $3,627,000, respectively. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions located in New York, New York, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Los Angeles, California. These balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. At August 31, 1995, uninsured amounts held at these financial institutions were approximately $674,000. There are various lawsuits claiming amounts against the Company. It is the opinion of the Company's management that the ultimate liabilities, if any, in these cases will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. 37 H. INVESTMENT IN AND ADVANCES TO AFFILIATES: TIME LOGIC SYSTEMS The Company had a 50% interest in a partnership known as Time Logic Systems which marketed a device which serves as an editing and synchronization system during the film-to-tape transfer process. In August 1994, the Company received a piece of equipment with a value of $189,000 in lieu of all future income from Time Logic Systems. COMPUTER GRAPHICS DESIGN In September 1993, the Company entered into a partnership arrangement with a computer graphics design firm. During fiscal years 1995 and 1994 respectively, the Company's 50% share of losses were $29,000 and $65,000. Additionally, the Company had an outstanding loan to the partnership of $118,000 at August 31, 1995. I. NET GAIN ON DISPOSITION OF FIXED ASSETS In June 1990, the Company sold to CBS Inc. a building it owned at 508-510 West 57th Street, New York, New York. The sale price of the property was $4,650,000 payable in cash at the closing. As part of the transaction, the Company entered into an Indenture of Lease with CBS, pursuant to which the Company, as tenant, leased back the premises. The Company recognized a net gain on the disposition of $2,277,000. In addition, under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standard No. 98, the Company deferred $922,000 of additional gain from the sale, representing the present value of the future minimum rental payment under the portion of the lease which was not subject to early termination. The balance of the deferred gain of $117,000 was recognized in the year ended August 31, 1995 as a reduction of rent expense. The Company has accelerated its efforts to sell equipment which is not fully utilized. In order to properly reflect the sale of equipment as part of the Company's operations, in 1995 and 1994, $352,000 and $817,000 of gain on disposal of assets were included in depreciation expense. Gain on disposal of assets of $274,000 was reclassified to depreciation expense during August 31, 1993 to conform with the current year presentation. J. ACCRUED RETIREMENT Under the terms of employment agreements with two former officers of the Company, retirement payments are due commencing September 1, 1996. At August 31, 1995, a liability of approximately $1,141,000 has been recorded, based upon the present value of these payments. Approximately $172,000, $206,000 and $190,000 has been charged to operations for the years ended August 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. K. IMPAIRMENT AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" which provides guidance on when to assess and how to measure impairment of long-lived assets, certain intangibles and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. The Company adopted this statement as of August 31, 1995. 38 The Company has decided to focus its resources toward providing services to the entertainment and corporate communications areas, which represents the Company's strength. As part of this strategy, the Company has decided to sell its Editel New York, Editel Chicago and Editel Los Angeles divisions, which specialize in the highly competitive commercial advertising portion of the video facilities industry. During the 1995 fiscal year, the three Editel divisions incurred a pretax loss of $3,682,000. As a result the Company identified property, plant and equipment associated with these divisions with a carrying value of approximately $24,000,000 that it no longer needed for its current and future operations, and during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995 committed to a plan to dispose of them. Accordingly, the Company began marketing these divisions to potential buyers and plans to sell them. Although the Company intends to sell these assets within one year there is no assurance that it will be able to do so, accordingly these assets are classified in the balance sheet as long-term. The Company estimated the revised value to be approximately $19,300,000. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $4,700,000 in 1995 on these assets, which was included in impairment charges. The Company intends to operate these divisions until a sale is consummated. The Company reevaluated its investment in its Windsor division in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995 and determined that based upon it's operating results, the goodwill associated with the purchase of this division and certain property, plant and equipment that will not provide any future benefits to the Company were impaired. The Company recognized an impairment charge of approximately $3,000,000 included in impairment charges during the fourth quarter which represents the remaining balances of these assets. In May of 1995, the Company adopted a plan to downsize the operations of its Editel Chicago division and reorganize and reduce its corporate management which resulted in recording a restructuring charge of $400,000 for severance and early retirement expense. In fiscal 1995, the restructuring liability was reduced by approximately $127,000 as a result of retirement and severance payments made during the year. As of August 31, 1995, the balance of the restructuring liability was approximately $273,000 and is included in accrued payroll. L.
