AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) June 30, 1999 Note 1 The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes as required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. Operating results for six months ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in 4Kids Entertainment, Inc.'s (the "Company") Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Note 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: For a summary of significant accounting policies reference is made to the Company's report on Form 10-K previously filed for the year ended December 31, 1998. Note 3 NET INCOME PER SHARE: The Company applies Statement of Accounting Standards("SFAS") No. 128 "Earnings per Share" which requires the computation and presentation of earnings per share ("EPS") to include basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed based solely on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects all potential dilution of common stock. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic EPS was 5,287,013 and 5,028,614 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for diluted EPS was 6,157,546 and 5,918,351 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. For the three and six months ended June 30,1998, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic EPS was 4,426,781 and 4,422,014 respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30,1998, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for diluted EPS was 5,566,626 and 5,336,270 respectively. The 1998 per share amounts have been restated to reflect the 3 for 2 stock split declared in March 1999. -4- Note 4 CREDIT FACILITY: The Company renegotiated the terms of the its Credit Facility with Chase Manhattan Bank on August 4,1999. Under the renegotiated terms, the Company may borrow, from time to time on an unsecured basis, up to $5 million for general working capital purposes. The Credit Facility, which requires annual renewal, provides for an interest rate equal to the bank's prime rate and an annual commitment fee of 1/2%. The Company's line of credit expires on June 30, 2000. As of August 13, 1999, the Company had no borrowings under the facility. Under the prior terms with the Company's Credit Facility with Chase Manhattan Bank, the Company could borrow, from time to time for general working capital purposes, up to $2 million. Any borrowings under the prior credit facility would be secured by the Company's receivables. The prior terms provided for an interest rate of 1% over the bank's prime rate and an annual commitment fee of 3/4%. Note 5 SUBSEQUENT EVENT AND PRO FORMA INFORMATION On August 12, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved the declaration of a 2 for 1 stock split effective for shareholders of record on September 1, 1999.

-5- Note 6 SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION The Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS No. 131"), "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". The Company has three reportable segments; Licensing, Media Buying Planning and Television Distribution and Television Production. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company does not have any inter-segment sales or transfers. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units which, while managed separately, work together as a vertically integrated entertainment company.

The Company typically derives a substantial portion of its licensing revenues from a small number of properties, which properties usually generate revenues only for a limited period of time. Because the Company's licensing revenues are highly subject to changing fashion in the toy and entertainment business, its licensing revenues from year to year from particular sources are subject to dramatic increases and decreases. It is not possible to precisely anticipate the length of time a project will be commercially successful, if at all. Popularity of properties can vary from months to years. As a result, the Company's revenues and net income may fluctuate significantly between comparable periods. The Company's revenues have historically been primarily derived from the license of toy, game and television property concepts. Thus a substantial portion of the Company's revenues and net income are subject to the seasonal variations of the toy and game industry. Typically, a majority of toy orders are shipped in the third and fourth calendar quarters. In addition the Company's media buying subsidiary concentrates its activities on the youth oriented market. As a result, most of its revenue is earned in the fourth quarter when the majority of toy and video game advertising occurs. As a result, in the Company's usual experience, its net income during the second half of the year will generally be greater than during the first half of the year. However, the Company has little control over the timing of guarantee and minimum royalty payments, some of which are made upon the execution and delivery of license agreements. Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to the three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Consolidated net revenue increased 151% or $3,308,823 for the three month period ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998. The six month period increased 90% or $4,157,386 as compared to the six month period ended June 30, 1998. The increase in net revenue for the three and six month periods was primarily due to increased licensing revenue from the "Pokemon" property and from the World Championship Wrestling "WCW/NWO" property. The Company's media buying and television distribution division recognized increased revenue over the three and six month period due to an increase in television distribution activities related to the Pokemon television program. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in media buying activity due to the loss of Tiger Electronics media business which was partially offset by new clients' advertising spending. -7- Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 37% or $626,702 and 37% or 1,181,735 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 when compared to the prior year periods. These increases were primarily due to contractually based bonus accruals calculated on pre-tax income levels, which were higher in 1999 as a result of higher pre-tax income. Additionally, the Company incurred increased payroll and marketing costs associated with the Company's expanded licensing activities. At June 30, 1999 there were approximately $3,377,000 of capitalized film production costs. These costs are primarily related to episodes of "WMAC Masters" and work related to the adaptation of episodes 53 to 104 of the Pokemon television series and the Pokemon feature film, "Mewtwo Strikes Back" coupled with a twenty minute short film entitled "Pikachu's Vacation", set for theatrical release in November 1999. "WMAC Masters" is a series of 26 half hour television programs produced by the Company's 4Kids Productions subsidiary. The 1998 amortization relates to the "WMAC Masters" television program. At June 30, 1999 the percentage of total unamortized film cost expected to be amortized within the next three years exceeds 70%. The Company periodically evaluates its anticipated revenue from film productions and, consequently, amortization rates may change as a result of such estimates. Interest income increased by approximately $106,000 and $175,000 for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 1999 as compared to the same periods in 1998. This increase is attributable to higher levels of invested cash compared to the same periods in 1998. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: At June 30, 1999 the Company had working capital of $20,866,194 as compared to working capital of $10,823,815 at December 31, 1998, an increase in working capital of $10,042,379. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $9,509,758 to $19,259,714 from December 31, 1998. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is due primarily to the seasonality of the Company's business and the timing of advance payments and royalties due on licensing agreements. The Company generates significantly higher receivables and payables during the fourth quarter of the year primarily related to its media buying and licensing activities. Such amounts are collected subsequent to December 31. Additionally, cash also increased due to proceeds from the exercise of stock options during the six month period ended June 30, 1999. Accounts receivable, net (current and noncurrent) decreased from $20,321,942 at December 31, 1998 to $10,806,072 at June 30, 1999. The decrease is primarily due to the Company's media buying activities. When the Company assumes payment obligation for the media it places on behalf of its clients, the Company records a receivable from its clients and a corresponding media payable for the gross amount of the media due. The seasonality of the Company's business tends to generate higher receivables in the fourth quarter which are generally collected in the first quarter. There was a corresponding decrease in media payable of $8,641,957. -8- Amounts due to licensors, which represents the owner's share of royalties collected, increased by $4,629,108 to $8,319,690 from December 31, 1998. The increase is primarily due to higher amounts of royalties and advances collected during the quarter which are payable to licensors after the close of the quarter. In the opinion of management, the Company will be able to satisfy its foreseeable financial obligations from its current working capital and credit facility. As described in Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has established a $5,000,000 credit facility with Chase Manhattan Bank for general working capital purposes. As of August 13, 1999 there were no borrowings under this facility. Year 2000 Compliance Overview The Year 2000 issue is primarily the result of computer programs only accepting a two digit date code, as opposed to four digits, to indicate the year. Beginning in the Year 2000, and in certain instances prior to the Year 2000, these date code fields will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century dates from 20th century dates. As a result, the Company's date critical functions may be adversely affected unless these computer systems and software products are, or become, able to accept four digit entries. Internal systems and equipment The Company has commenced a comprehensive program consisting of identifying, assessing and if necessary, upgrading and/or replacing its systems and equipment that may be vulnerable to Year 2000 problems. The first stage of this program, identifying the systems and equipment, has been substantially completed. The Company has prioritized the identified items as either critical or non-critical to the operations of the Company. The Company has made substantial progress through the second and third stages of this program, assessing and upgrading and/or replacing the equipment it has deemed to be non-compliant. The Company is also in the beginning stage of developing a plan to test its entire system for Year 2000 compliance. The Company believes that it will have completed all of its necessary upgrades and/or replacements and the testing of its systems by September, 1999. Third party relationships The Company has begun to formally communicate with its significant suppliers and customers to determine if those parties have appropriate plans to remedy Year 2000 issues when their systems may impact the operations of the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that the systems of other companies on which the Company's processes rely will be timely converted, or that a failure to successfully convert by another company, or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's systems, would not have an impact on the Company's operations. The Company believes that by September 1999 it will substantially complete its assessment of the status of its significant customers' and suppliers' compliance with the Year 2000 issues. -9- Contingency plans Based on the assessment effort to date, the Company has focused on three separate contingency plans (1) if the Company's systems are non-compliant (2) if the Company's customers are non-compliant and (3) if the Company's suppliers are non-compliant. The Company is in the early stages of developing these plans and believes that it will be able to complete them by September 1999. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to have an effective contingency plan in place in the event a significant supplier and/or customer does not become Year 2000 compliant. Costs/Risks Management currently estimates that the cost, in connection with bringing its own systems and equipment into compliance, will be less than $50,000 for fiscal 1999 and does not expect the total cost to exceed $100,000. Although the Company is not aware of any material operational issues or costs associated with preparing its internal systems for the Year 2000, there can be no assurance that there will not be a delay in, or increased costs associated with, the implementation of the necessary systems and changes to address the Year 2000. Potential sources of risk include but are not limited to (1) the inability of principal clients and licensees to be Year 2000 compliant, which could result in delays in product deliveries from such clients and licensees, (2) the inability of the Company's clients and licensees to become compliant, which could impact their ability to sell product or report royalties in a timely manner resulting in a disruption of the Company's cash flow, and (3) disruption of television broadcast signals, including satellite distribution and commercial integration vendors as a result of the general failure of systems and necessary infrastructure such as electrical supply. Forward-looking Statements This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. Due to the fact that the Company faces competition from toy companies, motion picture studios and other licensing companies, and the uncertainty of public's response to the Company's properties, actual results or outcomes may differ materially from any such forward-looking statements. -10- PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
