NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of ICON
Fitness Corporation ("ICON Fitness"), its wholly-owned subsidiary, IHF Holdings,
Inc. ("IHF Holdings"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ICON Health & Fitness,
Inc. ("ICON Health"), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the
Company). ICON Fitness' parent company, IHF Capital, Inc. ("IHF Capital"), is
not a registrant.

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements and notes should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K. In management's opinion, the accompanying
consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented, and all
such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The home fitness industry is
seasonal in nature and the results of operations for the interim periods
presented may not be indicative of the results for the full year.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingencies at the date of the consolidated financial
statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" (SFAS 130) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (SFAS
131). The Company adopted SFAS 130 and 131 on June 1, 1998. SFAS 130 establishes
standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in the
consolidated condensed financial statements. SFAS 131 establishes standards for
reporting information on operating segments and will first be applicable to the
May 31, 1999 year end consolidated financial statements.

Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

This quarterly Report on Form 10Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For this purpose, any statements contained
herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be
forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words
"believes", "anticipates", "plans", "expects", "intends" and similar expressions
are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company's actual
results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking
statements and are subject to a number of risks, including risks identified in
this quarterly report and the Company's annual report on Form 10-K. See "Recent
Developments" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources."

Recent Developments

Debt Restructuring

The Company has engaged an investment banker and special legal counsel and is
currently pursuing a restructuring of its debt with holders of its notes and is
also actively pursuing additional equity and debt financing arrangements in
support of such a restructuring. These discussions are continuing. While the
Company believes that agreements with respect to the restructuring and
additional equity and debt financing can be reached by the end of the current
fiscal year, there can be no assurance that any such restructuring will be
achieved or such financing secured. The Company's ability to meet its
obligations as they become due will be dependent on a restructuring.
Notwithstanding these circumstances and the ultimate uncertainty surrounding the
nature of any restructuring, these financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.

NordicTrack Transaction

On December 23, 1998, the Company bought inventory, trademarks and certain other
assets of NordicTrack, Inc., a debtor under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The terms of the purchase provided for payment of (i) $6,050,000 in cash at and
after closing, subject to adjustment based on the quantity and quality of
inventory delivered, (ii) $3,500,000 payable 60 days after closing, and (iii) up
to $3,000,000 payable over time as royalties based upon the sale of goods
bearing trademarks of NordicTrack, Inc., and other trademark related revenues as
follows: 2.0% of the first $50,000,000 of revenues, 1.0% of the next
$100,000,000 of revenues, and 0.5% of the next $200,000,000 of revenues. The
Company has paid $9.7 million to date as required by the terms of the purchase
contract. In a related transaction, the Company obtained leases of 18
NordicTrack retail store locations for no additional consideration other than
the assumption of liabilities related to the leases for those locations.

In connection with the NordicTrack transaction, the Company and Sears Roebuck &
Co. executed a license agreement that allows Sears to be the exclusive retailer
of NordicTrack branded fitness equipment outside of the Company's own retail and
direct marketing channels of distribution. In addition, under the agreement, the
Company granted Sears a royalty-bearing exclusive license to market fitness
apparel and certain categories of sporting goods under the NordicTrack brand.
The agreement will run for a term of twelve (12) years subject to certain early
termination provisions in 2005. The Company received a non-refundable, one-time
fee of $1.2 million for the rights granted to Sears under the agreement.

Subsequent Event

On April 2, 1999, a lawsuit, in which the Company was a party, was settled. The
terms of the settlement require the Company to pay $1.0 million to a third party
for breach of contract. The Company had $0.5 million accrued at February 27,
1999 associated with this claim and accrued the remaining $0.5 million in the
month ended March 27, 1999.

Year 2000 Compliance

The Company utilizes and is dependent upon data processing systems and software
to conduct its business. The data processing systems and software include those
developed and maintained by the Company's third-party data processing vendors
and software which is run on in-house computer systems. The Company has reviewed
and assessed all hardware and software to confirm that it will function properly
in the Year 2000. With respect to internal systems, the results of the
evaluation to date have not revealed any Year 2000 issues that, in the Company's
opinion, create a material risk or disruption of operations. The total cost
associated with required modifications to become Year 2000 compliant is not
expected to be material to the Company's financial position. The estimated total
cost of the Year 2000 Project is $2.5 million. The total amount expended on the
Project through February 27, 1999, was $1.8 million, which leaves the estimated
future cost of completing the Year 2000 Project at approximately $0.7 million.
The entire project is expected to be complete by the Company's fiscal fourth
quarter of 1999.

With respect to outside vendors, shippers and customers that have responded to
our request for information, 24.8% have indicated that their hardware or
software is Year 2000. Evaluation of these issues is continuing and there can be
no assurance that additional issues, not presently known to the Company, will
not be discovered which could present a material risk of disruption to the
Company's operations.

The Company's assessment of the risks associated with Year 2000 issues is
forward-looking. Actual results may vary for a variety of reasons including
those described above.

Seasonality

Financial results for the fitness industry are generally seasonal. Based on the
Company's historical experience, the Company would expect greater sales in the
second and third quarters than in the fourth and first quarters. The actual
results could differ materially depending upon consumer preferences,
availability of product, competition, and the Company's customers continuing to
carry and promote its various product lines, among other risks and
uncertainties. The following table reflects the Company's consolidated net sales
for the first, second and third quarters of fiscal 1999 and for each quarter in
fiscal 1998 and 1997:

First Second Third Fourth
Quarter Quarter Quarter Quarter
------- ------- ------- -------
Fiscal 1999 $117.2 $214.3 $226.7 ---
Fiscal 1998 $127.5 $236.3 $252.0 $133.5
Fiscal 1997 $125.8 $249.5 $248.7 $212.2

The Company believes that the relatively moderate rates of inflation in recent
years have not had a significant impact on its net sales or profitability.

Three Months Ended February 27, 1999 Compared to Three months ended February 28,
1998

Net sales decreased $25.3 million, or 10.0%, between the three months ended
February 27, 1999 and February 28, 1998. Domestic sales of treadmills decreased
to $143.8 million for the three months ended February 27, 1999 from $174.7
million for the three months ended February 28, 1998, a 17.7% decrease. Sales of
domestic treadmills represented 63.4% and 69.3% in the three months ended
February 27, 1999 and February 28, 1998, respectively. Other decreases include

a decline in elliptical product sales of $6.2 million. The sale of stationary
bikes increased $4.5 million, benches increased $3.2 million, softgoods
increased $3.1 million and home spas and other relaxation product sales
increased $1.0 million during the third quarter of fiscal 1999 when compared to
the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The decline in domestic treadmill sales is
attributable to a softening demand in the market as well as a major customer
that filed for bankruptcy during the quarter.

Gross profit decreased by $11.6 million, or 15.4%, to $63.9 million for the
three months ended February 27, 1999 from $75.5 million for the three months
ended February 28, 1998 and decreased as a percentage of net sales to 28.2% from
30.0%. This decrease of 1.8% was largely due to the decline in net sales and
changes in product mix.

Selling expenses totaled $32.3 million, or 14.3% of net sales in the third
quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to $37.1 million, or 14.7% of net sales for the
third quarter of fiscal 1998. This decrease is attributable primarily to a
reduction in advertising expenses that have decreased by approximately $4.6
million for the third quarter of fiscal 1999, versus the third quarter of fiscal
1998. Other selling expense decreases included a reduction in salaries and wages
of approximately $0.8 million, commission expense of approximately $0.8 million,
freight expense of $0.5 million, and approximately a $0.3 million reduction in
trade show and other related expenses when compared with the third quarter of
fiscal 1998. The above decreased expenses were offset by an increase in bad debt
expense of $2.2 million due mainly to the Service Merchandise bankruptcy filing.

Research and development expenses totaled $2.0 million, or 0.9% of net sales for
the third quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to $2.0 million, or 0.8% of net sales
for the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

General and administrative expenses totaled $13.6 million, or 6.0% of net sales
for the third quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to $15.0 million, or 5.9% of net
sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1998. This decrease of approximately $1.4
million in general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal
1999, is attributable to a decrease in legal expense and insurance claims of
$0.7 million, salaries, wages and bonuses of $0.6 million, and aggregate other
expenses of approximately $0.6 million. These decreased expenses were offset by
an increase in depreciation expense of $0.5 million.

As a result of the foregoing factors, operating income was $16.0 million in the
third quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to operating income of $21.5 million in
the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

Interest expense was $8.6 million for ICON Health, $12.3 million for IHF
Holdings and $15.8 million for ICON Fitness for the three months ended February
27, 1999, compared with interest expense of $9.6 million for ICON Health, $12.6
million for IHF Holdings and $15.7 million for ICON Fitness for the three months
ended February 28, 1998. The decrease in interest expense for ICON Health and
IHF Holdings was a result of decreased borrowings under the amended Credit
Agreement at the ICON Health operating level, offset by an increased level of
interest expense at the IHF Holdings level relative to accretion of the
outstanding principal balance of IHF Holdings indebtedness. The increased level
of interest expense for ICON Fitness is also due to the accretion of the
principal balances from their respective outstanding indebtedness.

Income tax expense was $1.8 million for ICON Health, $0.8 million for IHF
Holdings and a benefit of $0.3 million for ICON Fitness for the third quarter of
fiscal 1999, compared with a tax expense of $4.0 million for ICON

Health, $2.9 million for IHF Holdings and $1.9 for ICON Fitness during the third
quarter of fiscal 1998. The decrease in tax expense for the third quarter of
fiscal 1999, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1998, was a result of
decreased earnings for the Company.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income was $4.0 million for ICON
Health, $0.9 million for IHF Holdings and a net loss of $1.6 million for ICON
Fitness for the third quarter of fiscal 1999, compared to net income in the
third quarter of fiscal 1998 of $6.7 million for ICON Health, $4.3 million for
IHF Holdings and $2.1 million for ICON Fitness.

Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended February 27, 1999 and February
28, 1998

During the first nine months of fiscal 1999, net sales decreased $57.6 million,
or 9.4%, to $558.2 million from $615.8 million in the first nine months of
fiscal 1998. Domestic treadmill sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999
accounted for approximately 60.1% of total net sales, versus 62.5% in the first
nine months of fiscal 1998. For the first nine months of fiscal 1999, domestic
treadmill sales were $335.6 million compared to $385.0 million for the same
period a year ago, which represents a $49.4 million decrease. Other decreases
include a decline in the sale of airwalkers of $10.5 million, elliptical
products of $7.5 million, upright rowers of $3.7 million, miscellaneous and
other products of $4.6 million and international sales declines of $4.1 million.
The sale of stationary bikes increased $10.9 million, softgood sales increased
$4.3 million, home spas and other relaxation product sales increased $4.3
million, and trampoline sales increased $2.7 million during the first nine
months of fiscal 1999 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 1998.

Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 was $156.4 million, or
28.0% of net sales, compared to $178.2 million, or 28.9% of net sales for the
first nine months of fiscal 1998. The decrease of 0.9% in profit margin was
attributable to the changes in product mix.

Selling expenses totaled $78.5 million, or 14.1% of net sales, in the first nine
months of fiscal 1999, compared to $97.3 million, or 15.8% of net sales for the
first nine months of fiscal 1998. This decrease, both in dollars and as a
percentage of sales, is attributable primarily to a reduction in advertising
expenses that have decreased by approximately $12.3 million for the first nine
months of fiscal 1999, versus the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Other
selling expense decreases include reductions in salaries and wages of
approximately $2.7 million, freight expense of approximately $1.8 million,
commission expense of $0.8 million, and trade show and other related expenses of
approximately a $4.2 million. Bad debt expense increased for the first nine
months of fiscal 1999 over fiscal 1998 by approximately $2.2 million or 56% due
mainly to the Service Merchandise bankruptcy filing.

Research and development expenses totaled $5.6 million, or 1.0% of net sales,
for the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to $6.0 million, or 1.0% of
net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. This $0.4 million decrease
is attributable to management's efforts to reduce costs in the current year,
consisting mainly of contract labor and supplies associated with research and
development.

General and administrative expenses totaled $40.0 million, or 7.2% of net sales,
for the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to $45.3 million, or 7.4% of
net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. This decrease of
approximately $5.3 million in general and administrative expenses for the first
nine months of fiscal 1999, was attributable to a decrease in insurance claims
and legal expenses of $3.4 million, salaries

and wages of $0.6 million, management fees of approximately $0.4 million, and
aggregate other expenses of approximately $2.6 million. These decreased expenses
were offset by an increase in bonus expense of $0.5 million and depreciation and
amortization expense of $1.2 million.

As a result of the foregoing factors, operating income was $32.4 million in the
first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to operating income of $29.6 million
in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The higher operating income was a
result of reduced costs and expenses, primarily advertising, freight and
insurance claims and legal costs.

Interest expense was $24.6 million for ICON Health, $35.6 million for IHF
Holdings and $46.0 million for ICON Fitness in the first nine months of fiscal
1999, compared to $26.7 million for ICON Health, $35.9 million for IHF Holdings
and $45.0 million for ICON Fitness for the first nine months of fiscal 1998. The
decrease in interest expense for the operating company and IHF Holdings was due
to a lower level of outstanding indebtedness in fiscal 1999 as a result of
decreased borrowings under the amended Credit Agreement, partially offset in the
case of IHF Holdings by the accretion of the principal balance of its
outstanding indebtedness. However, in ICON Fitness, there is an additional level
of borrowings with respect to accretion of the principal balances of the
Company's outstanding indebtedness.

Income tax expense was $1.1 million for ICON Health, a benefit of $2.4 million
for IHF Holdings and a benefit of $6.0 million for ICON Fitness for the first
nine months of fiscal 1999, compared with a tax benefit of $0.1 million for ICON
Health, $3.2 million for IHF Holdings and $6.5 for ICON Fitness during the first
nine months of fiscal 1998. The decrease in tax benefit for the first nine
months of fiscal 1999, compared to the first nine months of fiscal 1998, was a
result of decreased losses before taxes incurred by the Company.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net profits were $2.2 million for ICON
Health, net losses were $6.6 million for IHF Holdings and $14.0 million for ICON
Fitness for the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to net losses in the
first nine months of fiscal 1998 of $0.4 million for ICON Health, $7.6 million
for IHF Holdings and $14.0 million for ICON Fitness.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's liquidity consists of cash, trade accounts receivable,
inventories, and a revolving credit facility. At February 27, 1999, working
capital was a negative $2.7 million, with a balance of $8.0 million in cash.
Cash used in operating activities aggregated $32.4 million for the nine months
ended February 27, 1999. Trade accounts receivable increased 48.7% from May 31,
1998 to February 27, 1999, while inventory levels decreased 1.0% from May 31,
1998 to February 27, 1999, largely due to the normal seasonality of the
business. There can be no assurance that the Company will have the liquidity to
meet its obligations as they become due.

ICON Health had $198.6 million of revolving credit borrowings under the amended
Credit Agreement at February 27, 1999 compared to $206.6 million at February 28,
1998. The revolving credit borrowings have increased by $50.1 million from
$148.5 million reported at the end of fiscal 1998. Line of Credit borrowings
have been used to fund inventory levels, finance normal trade credit for
customers, make interest payments on debt obligations and to fund capital
expenditures. The long-term portion of the term loans have decreased from $19.5
million reported at the end of fiscal 1998 to $14.6 million at February 27,
1999. This decrease is a result of scheduled debt payments.

As of April 17, 1999, the Company had outstanding, revolving credit borrowings
of $150.7 million and unused availability under its amended Credit Agreement of
$6.3 million. The Company's ability to meet short-term cash requirements is
based on continued collections of trade receivables and extension of credit from
both its banks and vendors. The amount of availability under the Company's
amended Credit Agreement is determined under the borrowing base formula,
which was amended as of July 31, 1998 and subsequently amended April 16,
1999, to increase temporarily the amount that could be borrowed by the
Company. After June 30, 1999, the Company will be able to borrow under the
Credit Agreement only the amounts that could be borrowed under the borrowing
base formula that was in effect prior to the July 31, 1998 amendment plus $5.0
million. The April 16, 1999 Amendment adjusted certain covenant compliance
issues for the third quarter ended February 27, 1999 and increased the amount of
unused availability for the Company based on an increased level of borrowings
associated with eligible inventories.

The Company is highly leveraged. The Company's need for advances under the
amended Credit Agreement is affected by a number of factors, including the
Company's operating performance, the Company's level of capital expenditures,
scheduled debt payments, and the willingness of the Company's suppliers to
extend credit to the Company. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's
control.

The revolving credit portion of the Company's amended Credit Agreement will be
due and payable on August 2, 1999. As a result, the revolving credit portion of
the amended Credit Agreement is now classified as a current liability, which has
resulted in a significant decrease in working capital when compared to the May
31, 1998 balance sheet. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to enter into arrangements to replace that borrowing facility.

The Company is required to pay $6.5 million of interest on ICON Health's 13%
Senior Subordinated Notes semiannually each January 15 and July 15, and will be
required to repay $101.25 million of principal on those notes on July 15, 2002.

In fiscal 1999, the Company will be required to pay $1.65 million of principal
under the term loan portion of its amended Credit Agreement each quarter on the
last day of March, June, September and December. The amount of such quarterly
principal payments will decrease to $1.56 million in fiscal 2000 and will
continue at that rate until the final payment of $5.6 million in December 2002.
Once repaid, borrowings under the Company's term loan cannot be borrowed again.

The first payment of cash interest on IHF Holdings' 15% Senior Secured Discount
Notes will be due May 15, 2000. Commencing on that date, the Company will be
required to pay $9.3 million of interest on those notes semiannually each May 15
and November 15. The Company will be required to pay $132.2 million of accreted
principal on those notes on November 15, 2004.

The first payment of cash interest on ICON Fitness' 14% Senior Discount Notes
will be due May 15, 2002. Commencing on that date, the Company will be required
to pay $11.3 million of interest on those notes semiannually each May 15 and
November 15. The Company will be required to pay $162.0 million of accreted
principal on those notes on November 15, 2007.

The Company will require substantial additional cash flow to meet these
obligations, and is, therefore, seeking to effect a restructuring of its
debt. See "Recent Developments-Possible Debt Restructuring."
