UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED, THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS ASSUMES NO EXERCISE OF THE UNDERWRITERS' OVER-ALLOTMENT OPTION. UNLESS THE CONTEXT OTHERWISE REQUIRES, REFERENCES IN THIS PROSPECTUS TO THE COMPANY OR TODD-AO INCLUDE THE TODD-AO CORPORATION AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES. THE COMPANY Todd-AO provides sound, video and ancillary post production and distribution services to the motion picture and television industries in the United States and Europe. The Company believes that it is one of the largest independent providers of combined sound studio and video services in the world with facilities located in Los Angeles, New York, London and Atlanta. Sound services include music recording, sound editing and enhancement and the mixing of dialogue, music and sound effects. Todd-AO's principal video services include film-to-video transfer (telecine), mastering and duplication of professional videotape formats, transmission for satellite broadcast, videotape editing, audio post production, and visual effects and graphics. Todd-AO provides these sound and video services to over 500 clients, including the major motion picture studios and television production companies such as The Walt Disney Company ("Disney"), Paramount Pictures Corporation ("Paramount"), Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. ("Turner"), Sony Pictures Entertainment ("Sony"), Warner Bros. Studios Inc. ("Warner Bros.") and Spelling Entertainment Group, Inc. ("Spelling"). The Company believes that its principal strengths include the depth and continuity of its creative and artistic talent, the quality and scope of its facilities, a tradition of providing quality services to its clients and a history of technological innovation. Since its inception in 1952, the Company and its employees have been nominated for 30 Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- and have won 18. Demand for the Company's services and facilities is principally derived from the production of new motion pictures, television programs and television commercials, as well as the distribution of previously released motion pictures and television programming through distribution channels such as television syndication, home video, cable and satellite. Historically, its clients have outsourced, and are expected by the Company to continue to outsource, many services required for production, post production, and distribution of film and television programming. The Company believes that trends toward digitalization and globalization in the entertainment and media industries are increasing the quality, variety and number of post production services required by customers. The Company believes that the worldwide market penetration of distribution channels such as home video and digital satellite broadcast is contributing to a growing demand for original and reissued programming, American product in particular, which in turn should increase demand for the Company's services. The Company's objective is to be the leading worldwide independent provider of sound and video post production services. Since 1994, the Company has implemented a strategy to achieve this objective and to capitalize on the movement towards digitalization and globalization in the motion picture and television industries by expanding its range of services through strategic acquisitions, internal growth and strategic alliances. The Company believes that in the future, U.S. and international entertainment and media companies will demand a broader range of sound and video post production services and are likely to prefer a single-source service provider. This strategy was formulated by the Company and is being executed under the leadership of Salah M. Hassanein, who became President in 1994. Mr. Hassanein has spent his entire career in the entertainment and media industry and has garnered both international experience and mergers and acquisitions expertise with United Artists Theatres Circuit, Inc. and Time Warner International Theatres, where he was responsible for development and expansion of Warner Bros.' overseas theater operations. To implement its strategy, the Company has assembled a senior management team experienced in the industry. 4 The Company entered the video services business in 1994 through its acquisition of Film Video Masters, renamed Todd-AO Video Services. In 1995, the Company expanded its sound studio business through the acquisition of Skywalker Sound South, renamed Todd-AO Studios West, with sound studios and facilities located in the West Los Angeles area. Also in 1995, the Company expanded its operations into Europe through the acquisition of Chrysalis Television Facilities, Ltd. ("Chrysalis"), which augmented the Company's video services capabilities to include the collation of television programming for satellite broadcast. The purchase of Filmatic Laboratories ("Filmatic") in 1996 enlarged Todd-AO's video services capabilities in London and added film processing capability. In August 1996, the Company acquired Edit Acquisition LLC ("Editworks"), located in Atlanta, Georgia, which specializes in providing video services to the advertising industry. As a result of these transactions, the Company has expanded its client base, increased its range of services and broadened its global market coverage. Largely as a result of efforts implementing its strategy, the Company's annual sales have grown in the past two years at an annual compounded rate of 35% from $27.4 million in fiscal 1993 to $50.0 million in fiscal 1995. Net income has grown in the same period at an annual compounded rate of 72% from $1.14 million in fiscal 1993 to $3.38 million in fiscal 1995.

FOOTNOTES BEGIN ON NEXT PAGE 6 (1) The Company purchased substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Editworks for cash and the Company's Class A Common Stock as of August 15, 1996. The pro forma summary financial data gives effect to the acquisition of Editworks as if it had occurred as of September 1, 1994. Such pro forma consolidated financial information is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations as they may be in the future or as they might have been had the acquisition been effected on the assumed date. See "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Information." (2) Such amounts represent net income per common share and common share equivalents, pro forma, to give effect to the 66,863 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock issued as part of the purchase of Editworks. The net income per common share and common share equivalent is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents, including the number of shares of common stock issued in connection with the purchase of Editworks, and includes common share equivalents arising from the assumed conversion of any outstanding dilutive stock options. All share and per share data has been adjusted to give effect to the 10% stock dividends paid in August 1995. (3) EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and loss from joint venture, is not intended to represent an alternative to net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of performance and is also not intended to represent an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Rather, it is included herein because management believes that it provides an important additional perspective on the Company's operating results and the Company's ability to service its long-term debt and to fund the Company's continuing operations. (4) Adjusted to give effect to the Editworks acquisition, consummated in the fourth quarter of 1996, as if the acquisition was consummated as of May 31, 1996. (5) Adjusted to give effect to (i) the sale of 2,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby by the Company at an assumed offering price to the public of $13.00 per share, net of underwriting discounts and commission and estimated expenses of the offering, (ii) the Editworks acquisition as if it occurred as of May 31, 1996, and (iii) the anticipated use of the estimated net proceeds of the offering. See "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Information" and "Use of Proceeds." 7 RISK FACTORS PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS, IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, IN EVALUATING AN INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES OFFERED HEREBY. THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAINS CERTAIN STATEMENTS OF A FORWARD-LOOKING NATURE RELATING TO FUTURE EVENTS OR THE FUTURE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE CAUTIONED THAT SUCH STATEMENTS ARE ONLY PREDICTIONS AND THAT ACTUAL EVENTS OR RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY. IN EVALUATING SUCH STATEMENTS, PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD SPECIFICALLY CONSIDER THE VARIOUS FACTORS IDENTIFIED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING THE MATTERS SET FORTH BELOW, WHICH COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE INDICATED BY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL. The Company's success depends in large part upon the continued service of its key management, especially the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Salah M. Hassanein, and of its skilled technicians and artists, for whose services competition is intense. See "Management." Mr. Hassanein's international experience and his expertise in mergers and acquisitions is critical to the development and implementation of the Company's business strategy. The Company has no employment agreement with Mr. Hassanein; however, it does have employment agreements with Christopher D. Jenkins, Senior Vice President of the Company and the President of Todd-AO Studios, J.R. DeLang, Senior Vice President of the Company and Executive Vice President of Todd-AO Studios, as well as with 58 of its other key management, creative and technical personnel. See "Management--Employment Agreements." Todd-AO does not maintain "key man" life insurance for any of its employees. The loss of Mr. Hassanein or any significant number of other key managers, skilled technicians or artists or a significant labor strike or work stoppage could have a material adverse effect on the Company. FLUCTUATION IN QUARTERLY RESULTS. The demand for the Company's core motion picture services has historically been seasonal, with higher demand in the fall (first fiscal quarter) and spring (third fiscal quarter) preceding the Christmas holiday season and summer theatrical releases, respectively. Demand has been lower in the winter and summer, corresponding to the Company's second and fourth fiscal quarters, respectively. Accordingly, the Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, quarterly fluctuations in revenue and net income. The majority of the services performed by the Company are provided on a non-contractual basis. Clients may desire to accelerate, postpone or cancel previously scheduled services prior to the commencement of the project. As a result, the Company is susceptible to scheduling changes or cancellations by customers and may not be able to reschedule or secure additional work to replace previously scheduled projects. The post production services normally provided by the Company for a major motion picture may occur over a period of several weeks. The rescheduling or cancellation of such a project may have a material affect on the quarterly and/or annual operating results of the Company. Certain major motion picture projects may result in significant unanticipated additional revenues due to substantial overtime services provided by the Company. These additional revenues may be material to the Company's results of operations; however, their occurrence or probability cannot be predicted. As a result, the occurrence of these additional revenues in a particular fiscal period may materially affect the comparability of operating results for equivalent reporting periods. As a result of the factors described above, there can be no assurance that results of operations will not fluctuate significantly from period to period. In addition, results of operations for any fiscal period are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for any future fiscal period. CAPACITY UTILIZATION. Todd-AO's sound studio business operates at or near effective capacity. The effective utilization of the Company's sound studios depends on motion picture producers and, to a lesser extent, television producers maintaining production at or above recent levels, and on no major production interruptions due to work stoppages or other crises. The Company believes that there will not be a substantial increase, and there may be a decrease, in the current production of feature films and television programming, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. 8 COMPETITION. The businesses in which the Company competes are highly competitive and service-oriented. The Company has few long-term or exclusive service agreements with its customers. Business generation is based primarily on customer satisfaction with reliability, timeliness, quality and price. Some of the Company's competitors have greater financial, technical and marketing resources. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively against these competitors. The Company's primary competitors in the studio sound services area are the motion picture studios, many of which perform these services "in-house." The motion picture studios with in-house post production capabilities generally operate at or near capacity, and therefore outsource some of their requirements, usually to independent providers such as the Company, but sometimes to other studios with in-house capability. The Company's studio sound business is derived primarily from the major studios' periodic lack of capacity or the ability of the film director or other key creative personnel to select the post production provider, even when the film is produced or distributed by a studio with in-house capabilities. In addition, many of the major studios without full in-house post production capabilities evaluate from time-to-time whether to perform in-house certain of the services provided by the Company. If there were a significant decline in the number of motion pictures or the amount of original television programming produced, or if the studios or other clients of the Company either established in-house post production facilities or significantly expanded their in-house capabilities, the Company's operations could be materially and adversely affected. CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION. Although the Company serviced over 500 customers during the nine months ended May 31, 1996, the ten largest customers accounted for approximately 50% of the Company's revenues and the single largest customer, Disney, accounted for approximately 12% of revenues during the period. The loss of, or the failure to replace, any significant portion of the services provided to any significant customer could have a material adverse effect on the Company. FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS; UNCERTAINTY OF ADDITIONAL FUNDING. The Company intends to continue making capital expenditures to fund technological development, acquire complementary businesses and introduce additional services. Based on current plans and assumptions relating to its operations, the Company anticipates that the net proceeds of this offering, together with its existing capital, credit facility and cash from operations, will be adequate to satisfy its capital requirements through at least the end of 1997. There can be no assurance, however, that the net proceeds of this offering and such other sources of funding will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's future capital requirements or that the Company will not require additional capital sooner than currently anticipated. In addition, the Company cannot predict the precise amount of future capital that it will require, and there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain required financing would have a material adverse effect on the Company. RISKS RELATED TO GROWTH THROUGH ACQUISITIONS. The Company's strategy for growth includes expanding the range of post production services it provides to existing clients and increasing its customer base through strategic acquisitions, internal growth and strategic alliances. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire or profitably manage suitable acquisition candidates or successfully integrate them into its operations without substantial costs, delays or other problems. In addition, there can be no assurance that any businesses acquired will be profitable at the time of its acquisition or will achieve sales and profitability that justify the investment therein or that the Company will be able to realize expected operating and economic efficiencies following such acquisitions. Acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including adverse effects on the Company's reported operating results, diversion of management's attention, increased burdens on the Company's management resources and financial controls, dependence on retention and hiring of key personnel, risks associated with unanticipated problems or legal liabilities, and amortization of acquired intangible assets, some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Competition for acquisition opportunities from the Company's competitors, which may have greater financial resources than the Company, could increase purchase prices and related costs of potential acquisitions and result in fewer acquisitions by the Company, which could adversely affect the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully 9 implement its growth strategy, and if not, the prospects of the Company may be adversely affected. See "Business--Strategy." CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS; POTENTIAL ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK; ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS. Upon completion of this offering, and assuming no exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option, Marshall Naify, Robert A. Naify, various members of their families, and trusts for the benefit of such members (collectively, the "Naify Interests") will own shares representing 75.7% of the voting power of the Company. By virtue of this stock ownership, the Naify Interests will be able to determine the outcome of substantially all matters required to be submitted to a vote of shareholders, including (i) the election of the board of directors, (ii) amendments to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and (iii) approval of mergers and other significant corporate transactions. The foregoing may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing certain types of transactions involving an actual or potential change of control of the Company, including transactions in which the holders of Class A Common Stock might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over current market prices. In addition, the Company's Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including voting rights, without any further vote or action by the Company's shareholders. Although the Company has no current plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock, the rights of the holders of Common Stock would be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any Preferred Stock that may be issued in the future. Issuance of Preferred Stock could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Furthermore, certain provisions of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws and of Delaware law also could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. See "Principal Shareholders" and "Description of Capital Stock." BROAD DISCRETION AS TO USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Class A Common Stock offered hereby for general corporate purposes, including, temporary repayment of indebtedness, potential acquisitions of businesses complementary to the Company's operations and capital expenditures. In the ordinary course of business, the Company actively explores acquisition opportunities and has had discussions with a number of potential acquisition candidates. However, the Company does not have any agreement, understanding or commitment to acquire any particular business or repay any indebtedness, nor has it identified particular capital expenditure projects. The Company's management will therefore have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds of this offering and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate acquisitions or identify and initiate projects that meet the Company's requirements. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Business-- Strategy." FOREIGN MARKETS. The Company's growth strategy provides for increased services to foreign customers and to domestic customers distributing programming to the international market. Accordingly, the Company will be increasingly subject to the risks generally associated with marketing products or services abroad, such as currency fluctuation, political instability and the political, legislative and regulatory environment in foreign countries. The Company does not believe any of such risks have had a material impact on its business operations or financial condition, but there can be no assurance as to whether such risks will have a material impact in the future. LIMITED FLOAT AND LIQUIDITY; POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE. There has been limited public trading of the Class A Common Stock. During the 12-month period ended August 31, 1996, the average daily trading volume of shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market was 11,739 shares. Furthermore, at times the Class A Common Stock has experienced price and volume fluctuations caused by matters unrelated, as well as related, to the Company's business and results of operations. Although the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock will increase by 2,500,000 (2,875,000 if the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised) upon the closing of the offering, there 10 can be no assurance that increased trading activity will develop or be sustained or that market price volatility will diminish. RISK OF LOSS FROM EARTHQUAKES, FIRE OR OTHER CATASTROPHIC EVENTS. The Company is subject to the risk of loss from earthquakes, fires and other catastrophic events due to the dependence of its services on specially equipped, acoustically designed facilities. Due to the extensive amount of specialized equipment incorporated into the specially designed recording and scoring stages, editorial suites and mixing rooms, the Company's operations cannot be temporarily relocated to mitigate the occurrence of a catastrophic event. Consequently, the Company carries insurance for property loss and business interruption resulting from such events, other than earthquake, subject to deductibles. The Company does not carry earthquake insurance due to the unavailability of comprehensive coverage and the prohibitive cost of the coverage that is available. Although the Company believes it has adequate insurance coverage relating to damage to its property and the disruption of its business from casualties such as fire, there can be no assurance that such insurance would be sufficient to cover all costs or damages suffered by the Company or the loss of income resulting from the Company's inability to provide services for an extended period of time. THE COMPANY Todd-AO provides sound, video and ancillary post production and distribution services to the motion picture and television industries in the United States and Europe. The Company believes that it is one of the largest independent providers of combined sound studio and video services in the world with facilities located in Los Angeles, New York, London and Atlanta. Sound services include music recording, sound editing and enhancement, mixing of music, sound effects and dialogue and narration. Todd-AO's principal video services include film-to-video transfer (telecine), mastering and duplication of professional videotape formats, transmission for satellite broadcast, videotape editing, audio post production, and visual effects and graphics. Todd-AO provides these sound and video services to over 500 clients, including the major motion picture studios and television production companies such as Disney, Paramount, Turner, Sony, Warner Bros. and Spelling. The Company believes that its principal strengths include the depth and continuity of its creative and artistic talent, the quality and scope of its facilities, a tradition of providing quality services to its clients, and a history of technological innovation. Since its inception in 1952, the Company and its employees have been nominated for 30 Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- and have won 18. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1952. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 172 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California 94102, and its telephone number is (415) 928-3200. USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to be received by the Company from the sale of the 2,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered by the Company at the offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses of the offering payable by the Company are approximately $29.725 million (approximately $34.259 million if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full). The net proceeds to the Company from this offering will be used for possible future acquisitions, possible temporary repayment of indebtedness under the Company's long-term credit facility, of which $8.4 million at an approximate aggregate interest rate of 7.5% was outstanding at August 31, 1996, working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. The Company may use a portion of the proceeds, as well as borrowings under the Company's long-term credit facility or other debt financing, for investment in or the acquisition of complementary businesses. In the ordinary course of business, the Company actively explores acquisition opportunities and has had discussions with a number of potential acquisition candidates. However, the Company does not have any agreement, understanding or commitment with respect to any such investment or acquisition. Pending application of the net proceeds of this offering as described above, the Company may invest the proceeds in short-term and medium-term, investment grade, interest-bearing obligations. 11 PRICE RANGE OF COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDENDS The Company's Class A Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market System under the symbol "TODDA." The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low sales prices (without adjustment to reflect the 10% stock dividend paid on September 29, 1995) for the Class A Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market.

As of October 8, 1996, there were approximately 1,300 and seven holders of record of Class A and Class B Common Stock, respectively. The number of holders of Class A Common Stock does not include an indeterminate number of shareholders whose shares are held by brokers in "street name." The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of $.045 per share before any cash dividends may be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock. Holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends equal to 90% of the cash dividends paid on the Class A Common Stock. The Company paid cash dividends of $.06 per Class A share for the fiscal years 1995 and 1996. On August 11, 1995, a 10% stock dividend was declared for holders of Class A and Class B stock payable on September 29, 1995 to shareholders of record on September 8, 1995. The Company intends to retain all earnings in excess of mandated dividends for the operation and expansion of its business. The payment of any additional dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, results of operations, capital requirements, the general financial condition of the Company and general business conditions, as well as such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources." 12 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the consolidated capitalization of the Company as of May 31, 1996 (i) on an actual basis, (ii) on a pro forma basis to give effect to the acquisition of Editworks (see "Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Information"), and (iii) as adjusted to give effect to the sale of the Shares being offered hereby and the use of the estimated net proceeds therefrom.

- ------------------------------ (1) The net income per common share and common share equivalent is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents and includes common share equivalents arising from the assumed conversion of any outstanding dilutive stock options. (2) EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and loss from joint venture, is not intended to represent an alternative to net income (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of performance and is also not intended to represent an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Rather, it is included herein because management believes that it provides an important additional perspective on the Company's operating results and the Company's ability to service its long-term debt and to fund the Company's continuing operations. 14 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INFORMATION Todd-AO purchased substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Editworks for cash and Class A Common Stock as of August 15, 1996. The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of May 31, 1996 is adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Editworks as if that transaction had occurred on May 31, 1996. The following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended August 31, 1995 and for the nine month period ended May 31, 1996 give effect to the acquisition of Editworks as if such transaction had occurred on September 1, 1994. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and the financial statements of Editworks and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the acquisition of Editworks actually occurred on September 1, 1994, nor do they purport to indicate the results of future operations. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income combine the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations with the historical operations of Editworks prior to the date the Company made such acquisition. 15 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET MAY 31, 1996 (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)

GENERAL The Company derives its revenue primarily from sound and video services to the motion picture and television industries. Over the past decade, the Company provided sound services exclusively until the August 1994 acquisition of Todd-AO Video Services. This acquisition represented a fundamental shift in management's vision of the Company's future. Prior to fiscal 1995, the core sound business had grown from $14,000 in revenues in 1986 to almost $33,000 in fiscal 1994, but profitability was volatile and inherently subject to scheduling conflicts, unpredictable overtime revenues and seasonality. Beginning in fiscal 1995, the Company pursued a strategy of diversifying its operations by acquiring or establishing complementary service companies in the production and post production markets. This diversification is not only functional but geographical, as represented by the acquisitions in March 1995 of Chrysalis in London and in August 1996 of Editworks in Atlanta. The Company also acquired Todd-AO Studios West in 1995 and Filmatic and Editworks in 1996. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company's results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto and the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. The operating results for the periods presented were not significantly affected by inflation. The following sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain information relating to the Company's operations expressed as a percentage of the Company's revenues:

20 NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1995 Revenues increased $11,015 or 29.7% from $37,125 to $48,140 due primarily to the acquisitions of Todd-AO Studios West in February 1995, Chrysalis in March 1995 and Filmatic in April 1996. The 1996 revenue increases for these new subsidiaries were $4,241, $5,643 and $338, respectively. These increases represent nine months of operations for Todd-AO Studios West and Chrysalis in 1996 versus a partial period in 1995. Two months of Filmatic's operations are included in 1996. The revenue increase for the remaining divisions was $793 or 2.7%. Operating costs and other expenses increased $7,826 or 26.6% from $29,405 to $37,231 due primarily to the acquisitions described above. While operating costs and other expenses increased in absolute dollars, they decreased as a percentage of revenue from 79.2% to 77.3%. This reduction was primarily the result of improved profit margins for a full nine month period realized from Todd-AO Studios West and Chrysalis and the consolidation of certain corporate overhead costs associated with these acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization increased $953 or 31.6% primarily due to the acquisitions but did not materially change as a percentage of revenue for the comparative periods. Interest expense, equipment lease expense and other income did not materially change in dollars or as a percentage of revenues for the comparative periods. As a result of the above, income before taxes increased $2,362 from $4,071 to $6,433 and net income increased $1,443 from $2,619 (7.1% of revenue) to $4,062 (8.4% of revenue). FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 1995 AS COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 1994 Total revenues increased $17,111 or 52.0% from $32,892 to $50,003. This increase is the result of the organization and acquisition of new operations in fiscal 1994 and 1995. Sound studio revenues increased $7,703 due to the acquisition of Skywalker Sound South by Todd-AO Studios West in February 1995. Todd-AO Studios West provides post production sound services for the film and television industries on the westside of Los Angeles. This increase in sound studio revenues was offset by a $3,583 or 10.8% decrease at the Los Angeles and New York studios due to reduced feature film dubbing bookings. These reduced bookings were primarily the result of a threatened strike in Los Angeles which caused scheduling irregularities through December 1994, and a feature film stage which was closed for remodeling through January 1995. Video services revenues increased $12,691 due to the inclusion of Todd-AO Video Services ($6,504), Todd-AO Digital Images ("TDI")($1,253) and Chrysalis ($4,934) in fiscal 1995. Todd-AO Video Services, which acquired certain assets and liabilities of Film Video Masters, Inc. on August 30, 1994, provides post production video services to the film and television industries. TDI, which was formed in the latter half of fiscal 1994, provides visual effects services to the same industries. Todd-AO Europe Holding Co. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired all of the outstanding shares of Chrysalis in March 1995. Both corporations are based in London and organized under the laws of the United Kingdom. Chrysalis specializes in the collation of television programming for satellite broadcast and also provides post production video services. Operating costs and other expenses increased $12,846 or 47.5% from $27,021 to $39,867 due primarily to the acquisitions described above. Operating costs and other expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue from 82.2% to 79.7%. This improvement is primarily the result of increased profit margins realized from Todd-AO Studios West and Chrysalis and the consolidation of certain corporate overhead costs associated with the acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization increased $1,314 or 50.5% due to the acquisitions described above but did not significantly change as a percentage of revenue between fiscal 1994 and 1995. 21 Interest expense increased from $24 in fiscal 1994 to $581 in fiscal 1995 primarily due to institutional borrowings of $7,726 in connection with the acquisition of Chrysalis in March 1995. In fiscal 1995, the Company also incurred equipment lease expense (net of deferred gain on sale of equipment) of $593 in connection with a December 1994 sale/leaseback agreement with its institutional lender. Other (income) expense, net declined by $483 in fiscal 1995 primarily due to current year research and development costs and non-recurring severance costs. Losses from the Company's entertainment project development joint venture declined from $1,215 (3.7% of revenue) in fiscal 1994 to $249 (0.5% of revenue) in fiscal 1995 due to the termination of the development phase of the venture early in fiscal 1995. As a result of the above, income before taxes increased $2,284 from $2,802 to $5,086 and net income increased $1,595 from $1,780 (5.4% of revenue) to $3,375 (6.7% of revenue). FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 1994 AS COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 1993 Revenues increased $5,490 or 20.0% from $27,402 in 1993 to $32,892 in 1994. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in the number of feature films serviced due to an increase in feature film product released by the major studios and an increase in aggregate overtime work required for these films. Scoring revenues increased $551 or 33% as the Todd-AO scoring stage completed its second full year of operation. In addition, all other ancillary services experienced revenue increases. Operating costs and other expenses increased $4,380 or 19.4% from $22,641 to $27,021 due to the revenue increases described above and a stock appreciation rights provision related to the increase in the Company's stock price. Operating costs and other expenses as a percentage of revenue remained consistent in the two years (82.2% versus 82.6%). Depreciation and amortization, while increasing $191 due primarily to equipment additions for Todd-AO Digital Images, a new visual effects facility created during the year, decreased as a percentage of revenue from 8.8% to 7.9%. Other (income) expense, net increased $290 due to realized gains from the sale of certain investments. As a result of the above, income before taxes increased $1,001 from $1,801 to $2,802 and net income increased $643 from $1,137 (4.2% of revenue) to $1,780 (5.4% of revenue). 22 QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table presents selected unaudited quarterly financial information for each of the eight quarters ended May 31, 1996, both in dollars and as a percentage of total revenues. In the opinion of the Company's management, this information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the selected quarterly information when read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, quarterly fluctuations in operating performance. As a result, the operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period or for the full year. In particular, the operating results for the third quarter of fiscal 1995 and the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were favorably impacted by additional revenue due to substantial overtime services provided by the Company for certain major motion picture projects. The Company does not currently anticipate that substantial overtime services will be provided by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. See "Risk Factors--Fluctuations in Quarterly Results."

23 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES In December 1994, the Company signed agreements with its bank to implement the sale/leaseback of certain equipment and a long-term credit facility. An aggregate of $11,218 of sound studio equipment was sold and leased back on December 30, 1994. The sale/leaseback agreement terminates on December 30, 1999. Under the credit facility, including amendments in 1995 and 1996, the Company may borrow up to $20,000 and L5,000 in revolving loans until February 28, 2000. On that date and quarterly thereafter until the expiration of the agreement on November 30, 2003, the revolving loan commitment will reduce by 5% of the original loan commitment. These credit facilities are available for general corporate purposes, capital expenditures and acquisitions. Management believes that funds generated from operations, the proceeds from this offering, the proceeds from the sale/leaseback and the borrowings available under the credit facility will be sufficient to meet the needs of the Company at least through the end of 1997. See "Risk Factors--Future Capital Needs; Uncertainty of Additional Funding." In February 1995, the Company used $6,878 of the proceeds from the sale/leaseback agreement to acquire substantially all of the property, equipment and inventory of Skywalker Sound South, renamed Todd-AO Studio West. In March 1995, the Company used $7,726 under the credit facility in connection with the acquisition of Chrysalis. In August 1996, the Company used $4,280 under the credit facility in connection with the acquisition of Editworks. As of August 31, 1996, the Company had $8,437 outstanding under the credit facility. The Company expects capital expenditures of approximately $12,000 for its Los Angeles, New York City, Atlanta and London facilities in fiscal 1997. These capital expenditures will be financed by credit facilities and internally generated funds. 24 BUSINESS Todd-AO provides sound, video and ancillary post production and distribution services to the motion picture and television industries in the United States and Europe. The Company believes that it is one of the largest independent providers of combined sound studio and video services in the world, with facilities located in Los Angeles, New York, London and Atlanta. Sound services include music recording, sound editing and enhancement and the mixing of dialogue, music and sound effects. Todd-AO's principal video services include film-to-video transfer (telecine), mastering and duplication of professional videotape formats, transmission for satellite broadcast, videotape editing, audio post production, and visual effects and graphics. Todd-AO provides these sound and video services to over 500 clients, including the major motion picture studios and television production companies such as Disney, Paramount, Turner, Sony, Warner Bros. and Spelling. The Company believes that its principal strengths include the depth and continuity of its creative and artistic talent, the quality and scope of its facilities, a tradition of providing quality services to its clients, and a history of technological innovation. Since its inception in 1952, the Company and its employees have been nominated for 30 Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- and have won 18. Demand for the Company's services and facilities is principally derived from the production of new motion pictures, television programs and television commercials, as well as the distribution of previously released motion picture and television programming through distribution channels such as television syndication, home video, cable and satellite. Historically, its clients have outsourced, and are expected by the Company to continue to outsource, many services required for production, post production, and distribution of film and television programming. The Company believes that trends toward digitalization and globalization in the entertainment and media industries are increasing the quality, variety and number of post production services required by customers. The Company believes that the worldwide market penetration of distribution channels such as home video and digital satellite broadcast is contributing to a growing demand for original and reissued programming, American product in particular, which in turn should increase demand for the Company's services. The Company's objective is to be the leading worldwide independent provider of sound and video post production services. Since 1994, the Company has implemented a strategy to achieve this objective and to capitalize on the movement towards digitalization and globalization in the motion picture and television industries by expanding its range of services through strategic acquisitions, internal growth and strategic alliances. The Company believes that in the future, U.S. and international entertainment and media companies will demand a broader range of sound and video post production services and are likely to prefer a single-source provider. This strategy was formulated by the Company and is being executed under the leadership of Salah M. Hassanein, who became President in 1994. Mr. Hassanein has spent his entire career in the entertainment and media industry and has garnered significant international experience and mergers and acquisitions expertise with United Artists Theatres Circuit, Inc. and Time Warner International Theatres, where he was responsible for development and expansion of theater operations. To implement its strategy, the Company has assembled a senior management team experienced in the industry. The Company entered the video services business in 1994 through its acquisition of Todd-AO Video Services. In 1995, the Company expanded its sound studio business through the acquisition of Todd-AO Studios West with sound studios and facilities located in the West Los Angeles area. Also, in 1995, the Company expanded its operations into Europe through the acquisition of Chrysalis in London, which also augmented the Company's video services capabilities to include the collation of television programming for satellite broadcast. The purchase of Filmatic in 1996 enlarged Todd-AO's video services capabilities in London and added film processing capability. In August 1996, the Company acquired Editworks in Atlanta, which specializes in providing video services to the advertising industry. As a result of these transactions, the Company has expanded its client base, increased its range of services and broadened its global market coverage. 25 Largely as a result of efforts implementing its strategy, the Company's annual sales have grown in the past two years at an annual compounded rate of 35% from $27.4 million in fiscal 1993 to $50.0 million in fiscal 1995. Net income has grown in the same period at an annual compounded rate of 72% from $1.14 million in fiscal 1993 to $3.38 million in fiscal 1995. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW Weinstock Media Analysis, in its December 1995 report, estimated the size of the 1994 U.S. audio and video post production services market at $4.8 billion, with average annual revenue growth of approximately 10% projected from 1996 through 1999. Total 1994 U.S. audio and video post production services provided by independent facilities was estimated to be $1.2 billion. The creation of feature films and television programs is traditionally divided into distinct but interrelated phases: production, post production, distribution and exhibition. Production is the actual recording of visual images on film or videotape which generally takes place on a physical set or location. Post production has been generally defined as the various activities required to prepare a product for commercial release which occur subsequent to production. Distribution is the process whereby the finished product is delivered, either physically or electronically, to the specific medium which will exhibit the product to the consumer, such as a movie theater, television network, cable channel or prerecorded videotape retailer. With the proliferation in the past two decades of entertainment media such as cable, satellite, laser disc, VCRs and DAT machines and the globalization of product distribution, the demarcation points between the four industry phrases have begun to blur. Technological advances in production and post production equipment, especially in the realm of computer technology, have increased the quality, variety and number of video post production services provided to customers. For example, technological innovations in interactive television, digital video compression, computerized video editing equipment, computer generated special effects and graphics, as well as other contemporary post production techniques, have become an integral part of the production of motion pictures, television programs and television commercials. In addition, the after-markets for original programming are growing at such a rapid rate that the scope of post production services now extends far beyond a product's original exhibition. Traditionally, American film and television production has been accomplished by outsourcing services to an array of small, talented providers, augmenting studio in-house operations. These businesses are generally specialized and highly fragmented, and often have limited capital resources to cope with ever- changing technological developments. The increasing sophistication and complexity of creating, preparing and distributing programming have prompted some post production service providers to seek both horizontal and vertical business integration as a means of better serving their clients. The two principal sources of post production work are new production, which is produced for initial and after-market exhibition, and existing libraries, which are continually reprocessed and reformatted for new markets or media. In the case of new production, a variety of services are generally required. After the picture has been photographed, it is edited using film, videotape and computers. Dialogue is enhanced or replaced, music and special effects are added, and the sound track and picture are synchronized to produce the master video and audio elements or film negative created for a specific market and a specific territory. Throughout the process, electronic images are transferred and copied. The technique of editing and finishing product in a computer environment is becoming the standard procedure for television and feature film production. Subsequent to initial release, programs are often modified and reformatted for use in other markets, media or territories. New languages substituted for the original language and subtitles or closed captioning may have to be added. Different record and playback technologies may be integrated and new versions created to comply with local censorship restrictions. Each of these versions requires the creation of a separate master element. 26 The vast program libraries of major U.S. film and television companies provide a major source of ongoing programming. These libraries, which are constantly expanding, must be continually remastered, augmented, restored, converted, reformatted and preserved by post production companies for use or reuse in new or existing markets or media. For example, a vintage television series such as I LOVE LUCY is remastered using the latest digital equipment to enhance the picture and audio quality. It is then formatted for video, pay TV, cable, U.S. television syndication, foreign television syndication, satellite or other uses. The Company believes that, as the worldwide growth in networks and channels accelerates, these libraries will provide much of the distributed programming. Potential technological developments which may impact future worldwide product distribution and exhibition are digital television and advanced television systems. Digital television represents the digitization of picture and audio targeted for the new multimedia formats (Digital Video Discs, CD-I, CD-ROM, 3DO, etc.), the Internet, and the interactive television systems being developed by TCI, Bell Atlantic, US West, Hughes DBS and others. Advanced television systems are new high-resolution imaging systems being developed for the exhibition of motion pictures and television programs. To accommodate these new digital systems, the Company believes the industry will require various post production services, which may include compression, digital conversion and remastering. COMPANY HISTORY The Todd-AO Corporation was founded in 1952 by legendary showman, Mike Todd ("Todd"), George Skouras of the Magna Theatre Corporation and Dr. Brian O'Brien of the American Optical Company ("AO") to develop and market a new process in the photography and projection of motion pictures. The new system resulted in a 70mm film format projected on a curved, wide screen with 6-track stereo sound. Rodgers and Hammerstein's OKLAHOMA! was the first feature presentation to be released using the new Todd-AO technology, and received the 1955 Academy Award-Registered Trademark- for Best Sound. The Todd-AO system was recognized with a Scientific Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in 1957. Expanding on its successful introduction of 6-channel theatrical sound, the Company focused its efforts on recording sound services and innovative technological advances in the development of the moviegoer's audio experience. Todd-AO continued to flourish in the 1950s and 1960s, with its creative personnel winning several Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- for Best Sound for SOUTH PACIFIC, THE ALAMO, WEST SIDE STORY and THE SOUND OF MUSIC. The 1970s and 1980s brought continued success with Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- for Best Sound for CABARET, THE EXORCIST, E.T.-THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL and OUT OF AFRICA. In addition to the Company's reputation for excellence in the feature film business, the Company developed a presence in television, providing sound services for a number of prime time TV programs beginning with BURNS AND ALLEN, MR. ED, THE ADDAMS FAMILY, THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES, PETTICOAT JUNCTION and GREEN ACRES, and which continues today with BEVERLY HILLS 90210, MELROSE PLACE, NEWS RADIO, DANGEROUS MINDS, THE PRETENDER and TRACEY TAKES ON. Todd-AO secured its position as the leading independent provider of post production sound services with the 1986 acquisition of Glen Glenn Sound, a pioneer in television sound. In 1951, Glen Glenn teamed with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz on an experimental new situation comedy entitled I LOVE LUCY. In return for a reduced rate, Glen Glenn contracted all future sound services for Desilu, Lucy and Desi's production company. I LOVE LUCY established Glen Glenn Sound as a leader in television sound production and the company went on to provide sound services to some of the most memorable shows on television, including THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW, BONANZA, GUNSMOKE, MAYBERRY RFD, GOMER PYLE, MY THREE SONS, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, GET SMART and WILD, WILD WEST. Glen Glenn Sound was responsible for numerous technical innovations in sound recording, including the development and application of Automated Dialogue Replacement ("ADR") in 1964. First used on the TV series I SPY, ADR is now a standard process for virtually every film and long form television project in 27 the world today. Glen Glenn Sound received Technical Achievement Awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in 1974 and 1978. A year after the purchase of Glen Glenn Sound, the Company acquired TransAudio in New York, renamed Todd-AO Studios East. This acquisition gave the Company its first geographic presence outside of the Hollywood community and, with the addition of sound stages on the CBS lot in Studio City, California in 1988 and the construction of the Todd-AO scoring stage in 1992, contributed to the Company's revenue growth from approximately $14 million in 1986 to over $32 million by fiscal 1994. With the election of Salah M. Hassanein as President in 1994, the Company embarked on a strategy to grow the Company by expanding its service offerings, extending its geographic reach and increasing its customer base through the acquisition and creation of complimentary businesses, in part intended to lessen the Company's dependence on the motion picture production cycles. In addition to the knowledge of the Company which he has acquired as a Director since 1962, Mr. Hassanein has extensive international experience in building businesses through acquisitions and internal development. During his tenure at United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc. and Warner Bros. International Theatres, Mr. Hassanein was responsible for development and expansion of these organizations' theater circuits. With the acquisition of Todd-AO Video Services in 1994, the Company entered the video services business. In 1995 and 1996, Todd-AO entered the European market through its London acquisitions of Chrysalis and Filmatic, respectively. These acquisitions not only gave the Company a presence in Europe but also expanded its video services capabilities to include collation of television programming for satellite broadcast and film processing capability. Also in 1996, the Company acquired Editworks which expanded Todd-AO's video services to Atlanta and provided the Company with a presence in the commercial and advertising market. STRATEGY The Company's objective is to be the leading worldwide independent provider of sound and video post production services. Since 1994, the Company has implemented a strategy to achieve this objective and to capitalize on the movement toward digitalization and globalization in the motion picture and television industries by expanding its range of services through strategic acquisitions, internal growth and strategic alliances. The key elements of the Company's strategy are as follows: -STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS. The Company is continually searching for and evaluating possible acquisitions in order to expand its range of services, complement its existing business, extend its geographic reach and increase its customer base. The Company believes that there are significant opportunities in this area due to the historic fragmentation of the post production services business and the current and projected capital requirements all companies must face to support technological change. With the acquisition of Todd-AO Video Services in 1994, the Company entered the video services business. The acquisition of Todd-AO Studios West in 1995 provided Todd-AO with sound studios and facilities in the West Los Angeles area, a location experiencing rapid growth in the entertainment industry. Todd-AO made its first entry into the European market by acquiring Chrysalis in 1995 while at the same time expanding its video services capabilities to include collation of television programming for satellite broadcast. The purchase of Filmatic in 1996 expanded Todd-AO's video services capabilities in London and added film processing capability. The addition of Editworks in August 1996 expanded Todd-AO's video services to Atlanta and established the Company's presence in the commercial and advertising market. See "Risk Factors - Risks Related to Growth Through Acquisitions." -INTERNAL GROWTH. The Company seeks to identify and develop additional services that will complement its existing business, to increase the capacity for existing services through capital expenditures and to 28 expand and develop the services offered by acquired businesses. For example, in 1994, Todd-AO established Todd-AO Digital Images to provide computerized visual special effects for motion pictures and television. -STRATEGIC ALLIANCES. The Company believes that there may be opportunities to partner with other companies in the industry to achieve business goals that it could not accomplish alone. In 1996, Todd-AO entered into a joint venture with Chace Production Services to provide sound preservation and other ancillary services. Todd-AO has also entered into a joint venture with United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc. to create and promote a new film print process, known as Compact Distribution Print, or "CDP". See "Other Services" below. The Company's operational philosophy is essential to its long-term success and profitability. This philosophy involves the decentralization of day-to-day operational decision making, while maintaining centralized control of overall strategic vision and strict financial control over capital expenditures. The managers of Todd-AO's divisions and subsidiaries, most of whom have managed their businesses for many years, are given substantial day-to-day operational control of their businesses. In evaluating acquisition candidates, the Company generally gives substantial weight to the quality of existing management and its potential to contribute to the future of Todd-AO both on a divisional and corporate level. The Company is also committed to maintaining its long-standing global reputation for quality, which the Company believes is based principally on the abilities of its key management and creative personnel and their long association with Todd-AO and its customers. From its beginnings in the 1950's, the Company has trained most of its creative and artistic personnel in-house to maintain its quality standards. The Company believes that its long history of quality services and stability greatly enhance its ability to attract customers. SOUND STUDIO OPERATIONS Todd-AO performs post production sound services primarily for theatrical feature films, television series, television specials, movies-of-the-week, trailers and commercials. Sound services include music recording, sound editing and enhancement, mixing of music, sound effects, and dialogue and narration. After picture editing, the soundtrack becomes the primary focus of the production process. Feature film and television producers utilize the Company's studio facilities and highly skilled sound engineers to mix (rerecord) the basic elements of a soundtrack--dialogue (or narration), music ("score") and all other recorded sounds referred to collectively as "sound effects." A number of ancillary services derive from this core activity, including sound effects editing, film-to-tape and tape-to-tape transfers and duplication, automated dialogue replacement ("ADR"), live recorded sound effects ("Foley"), equipment rental, edit room rental and sale of film and tape stock ("rawstock"). The soundtrack of a major motion picture or television show is broken down into three key elements: dialogue or narration, music and sound effects. The dialogue track is created by production field recording. This is the on-set recording of the actors, completed in conjunction with the filming. Occasionally, problems will occur during the recording of the production track, ranging from jet noise above a Western set to electrical lighting hum during a close-up. These tracks will be replaced by a sound recording process known as ADR. The actor is brought to a sound stage to redo or "loop" the lines that need replacing. ADR is usually performed after the picture has finished shooting and just prior to the rerecording or the "mix" of the show. The music track or score plays a significant role in the creative process. A composer is provided with the edited version of the film and writes music to accompany the picture. It is not uncommon for the Company to have on its scoring stage an orchestra in excess of 100 pieces playing in synchronization with the picture under the guidance of the composer. Such orchestrations, along with "canned" or "library" music, make up the music track for motion pictures today. The music accompanying the picture is used primarily for mood setting, theme and pacing of the film. At Todd-AO, the focus is on the original recording of the orchestra and its subsequent mix into the final soundtrack of the film. 29 The sound effects tracks, similar to the dialogue and music tracks, play a significant role in the overall sound of a motion picture. The elements that make up the sound effects tracks come from four primary sources: (i) sound effects recorded during the filming or taping of the production, (ii) original recordings of naturally occurring sounds created by the production mixer or specialist, (iii) sound effects from existing libraries of generic or commonplace sounds, and (iv) a stage recording process referred to as "Foley" during which original effects such as footsteps, body movements, and various customized sounds are recorded live in synchronization with the film or tape. Upon completion of all the dialogue, music and effects recording, the materials are edited in total synchronization with the picture. The sound mixing process is generally completed in a large stage atmosphere with three mixers or engineers, one specializing in dialogue, one in effects, the third in music, working in tandem under the film's director. The process is a very creative one and calls for the blending of sounds to support and enhance the visual action on the screen. Upon completion of the mix, an optical negative sound track is shot containing the entire mixed track. This negative element is sent to the film laboratory to be developed. The sound and picture negatives are then printed together to make a composite print. This print is distributed to the theaters for exhibition. Currently, the Company offers 26 acoustically designed sound stages equipped with modern sound recording equipment, providing a broad range of sound services for both film and video tape. Todd-AO's scoring stage can accommodate up to 150 musicians for live sound recording. The mixing (rerecording) stages provide premium services including stereo sound in both 35mm and 70mm formats. Each of the Company's major feature stages has the capability to create soundtracks utilizing any of the current digital release formats. In order to emulate the movie theater environment, the Company's film recording stages are of significant size. The Company believes that its scoring stage is one of the largest in the world. In total, the Company has over 69,000 square feet of stage space. Todd-AO's facilities are conveniently located and readily accessible to the film making and television community, with locations in Hollywood, the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles' westside and New York. Todd-AO has a long history and tradition of providing quality sound services, starting with the theatrical release of OKLAHOMA! in 1955. Equally important as the Company's technical facilities is the talented staff of associated recording mixers. The Company's mixing teams have won numerous Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- and Emmys, including a Lifetime Achievement Award for Fred Hynes, who was a sound mixer of the Company for over 30 years. This long tradition of sound recording excellence continues today. The Company's employees have received eight Academy Award-Registered Trademark- nominations in the last nine years and two Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- in the last four years. A list of some of Todd-AO's 1996 credits include: A TIME TO KILL, COURAGE UNDER FIRE, THE CABLE GUY, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, FLED, and THE CHAMBER. 30 The Academy Awards-Registered Trademark- and nominations for Best Sound received by the Company or its creative personnel are described below (with Academy Award-Registered Trademark- winners shown in bold):

Todd AO's customer base for sound services has two components, feature film and television. The majority of Todd-AO's customers for feature films are independent production companies or studio in-house producers, each of whom distribute their product through one of the seven major studios-- Paramount, Warner Bros., Sony(Tri-Star Pictures, Inc./Columbia Pictures), Disney, Universal Pictures (Universal), Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp. (Fox), and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Inc. (MGM). The major studios provide the majority of Todd-AO's work. Approximately 75% of the Company's feature film work results from relationships with creative personnel. Often, a director, producer, or film editor will request a specific mixer or sound supervisor to work on his or her film. The remaining 25% of feature film work results from overflow from the major studios when they are unable to service their product in-house. Paramount has been the Company's largest supplier of product over the past three years. However, any one of the major studios may be the largest customer for a particular year based upon the number of films completed for that studio. Todd-AO prices and bills each feature film on an hourly or daily basis, charging for actual services rendered and time expended. Todd-AO's pricing varies for each project depending on the required personnel and facilities. The client base for television services is much more diverse. Todd-AO's major television clients include Spelling, MTM Entertainment, Inc. (MTM), DreamWorks SKG and Home Box Office, Inc. (HBO). Television pricing is generally based on a full complement of services. Movies-of-the-week, one hour dramas and half hour comedies are all priced and billed on a per show or episode basis. VIDEO SERVICES Todd-AO, through its various subsidiaries and divisions in Los Angeles, New York, London and Atlanta, provides video services (electronic post production services) principally to the worldwide motion picture, television, home video and advertising industries. Video post production is provided by skilled technicians using sophisticated electronic equipment and computers to process images and sound from film, videotape and computers onto a master element from which distribution and broadcast materials are 31 created for worldwide markets. These markets include theatrical releases, home video, cable, pay television, syndication, network, satellite, multimedia and advertising. Todd-AO provides its video services to over 150 customers including the major motion picture and television studios, independent producers, advertising agencies, television networks, cable program suppliers and television program syndicators. Projects on which the Company has performed video services in the past 12 months include: A FEW GOOD MEN, SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, THE INDIAN IN THE CUPBOARD, REMAINS OF THE DAY, THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT, SISTER ACT II, MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, THE JOY LUCK CLUB, PHILADELPHIA, LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE, PULP FICTION, THE NET and FORREST GUMP. Todd-AO's principal video and related services are as follows: -FILM-TO-VIDEO TRANSFER (TELECINE). All feature films and most television programming and advertising are produced on film but viewed (except in movie theaters) on an electronic medium such as a television screen. Todd-AO transfers the film to a video master in a frame-by-frame process in which skilled personnel use specialized equipment to accurately render the proper tone, color and lighting from the film original to the video master. -MASTERING AND DUPLICATION OF PROFESSIONAL FORMAT VIDEOTAPE. Todd-AO receives original master elements from a program provider such as a motion picture, television, commercial production, or home video company and duplicates the master for broadcast use in a variety of professional formats. Duplicates are used by television stations, home video duplicators, cable systems operators, cable program suppliers, TV networks, pay-per-view and satellite distribution companies to exhibit programs and commercials. Airlines use duplicates to exhibit in-flight movies. -TRANSMISSION. Chrysalis transmits television channels for satellite and cable broadcasters by providing services to generate video and audio signals which are passed on to the uplink provider for distribution by satellite. Clients provide details of each program and its exact duration. Each day, the client supplies a computerized playlist detailing the next 24 hours of network programming. This playlist is input into dedicated technology which consecutively plays each program at the correct time, thereby creating the continuous network output. To provide such transmission services (often on a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week basis), Chrysalis provides the technology, operational staff, physical library, database services, engineering support and emergency power (in case of electrical failure). -VIDEOTAPE EDITING. Editing entails the electronic transfer of video or audio information from one or more sources to a new master element. Editing is a highly creative service with individual editors often attaining star status and receiving screen credits. -AUDIO POST PRODUCTION. The Company provides services referred to as audio layback and audio augmentation. Layback is the process by which the sound and picture are synchronized and is frequently provided with telecine. The final soundtracks for feature films often include foreign languages for international release and are usually prepared separately for synchronization to match the various versions of the picture. Audio augmentation or "sweetening" is the process used to restore or modify existing sound or create new sound. Sweetening allows for the addition of music or sound effects, and eliminates unwanted portions of previously recorded sound. -VISUAL EFFECTS AND GRAPHICS. The Company provides visual effects and graphics services using modern computer imaging systems such as Silicon Graphics workstations. Visual effects for motion pictures and television include anything from a simple "fade to black" to the intricate "special effects" common in today's feature films. Graphic services entail the creating and melding of computer-generated images, video and audio, into programming, including commercial advertising, television music videos, and corporate video. 32 -BROADCAST STANDARDS CONVERSION. Several technically incompatible video standards for broadcasting are in use throughout the world. The Company converts feature films and television programs to or from any global standard, depending on the intended market. -CLOSED CAPTIONING/SUBTITLING. The vast majority of programming is closed captioned (for the hearing impaired) or subtitled for foreign languages. The Company electronically applies captions and subtitles onto the program. -PRODUCT EVALUATION/QUALITY ASSURANCE. The Company provides comprehensive evaluation and quality control for video and audio products. Todd-AO has consulted with several of the major entertainment and equipment manufacturing companies to develop post production specifications, equipment and processes. -VAULTING/STORAGE. Todd-AO provides storage for up to 100,000 units in its environmentally controlled and secured vaults. The Company also offers database and tracking services, 24-hour shipping and delivery services and element disposal. Todd-AO's ten largest video service customers account for over 75% of the division's total revenues. Except in connection with transmission services, long-term or exclusive contracts with customers are unusual in the post production industry. Customers generally do not make arrangements with the Company until shortly before its facilities and services are required. While Todd-AO does not ordinarily have long-term arrangements with customers, it may commit specific facilities, e.g., telecine suites, to certain major customers for specified periods of time. Typically, these customers do not have an obligation to pay for the facilities unless they are utilized. However, major customers typically inform the Company of their expected needs and receive pricing based on anticipated volumes. Transmission services, which are highly specialized and capital intensive, are generally provided to customers under contracts of two to three years in length. Video services provided for production of film and television programming are generally priced on an hourly basis, and services provided for distribution are generally priced on a per product basis. A majority of the Company's business is priced on an hourly basis. OTHER SERVICES -PRESERVATION. Todd-AO has entered into a joint venture with Chace Production Services for the protection, preservation, storage and retrieval of motion picture and television sound tracks. Todd-AO/ Chace is a vertically integrated company, providing a full range of sound preservation, media management services including data collection, transfer, protection and hierarchical storage. In addition to sound track preservation, Todd-AO/Chace intends to provide complete library services. These include client/server access, cataloguing, data base creation and entry, custom transfer services and audition libraries. -FILM PROCESSING. Filmatic provides film laboratory services including film developing, printing, cleaning and negative film cutting. Established in 1935, Filmatic is widely considered to be one of England's premier specialty film laboratories, providing its services to over 1,000 customers, including colleges, universities, corporate and training companies, film and video libraries, independent production companies and broadcast television. Currently, the British Broadcasting Corp represents 20% of Filmatic's business. -COMPACT DISTRIBUTION PRINT. CDP Limited Liability Company, a joint venture of Todd-AO and United Artists Theatre Circuit, Inc., has created a new print process, known as Compact Distribution Print or CDP. The CDP process reduces the length of feature release prints without affecting picture or sound quality by eliminating 37% of interframe waste in standard prints, an inefficiency which has existed since the 1950s. In addition to potential savings realized from reduced film stock footage and developing costs, a compact print can generally be distributed on a single reel, thereby reducing shipping and handling 33 costs. Opportunities for the implementation of CDP are currently being explored. The joint venture has received no firm commitments for the application of CDP, and there are no assurances that film distributors will choose to implement CDP. SALES AND MARKETING Todd-AO has traditionally obtained new business based on its long history of reliable delivery of quality services and its relationships with the motion picture studios, many of which are its major clients. The Company receives new projects based on the desire of creative personnel to work with Todd-AO's skilled technicians and artists and from the clients' need for a reliable provider of quality services. Studio sound services are generally ordered on an individual project basis, with the production company booking studio time and often specifying the sound mixers with whom it wishes to work. With its entry into the video services business, the Company has attempted to expand its relationships with the major studios to become a corporate strategic partner, rather than simply a project vendor. The Company believes that it has the expertise and management skills to address the needs of its customers on a full service basis, not just on specific projects, and to offer new services and to expand into new markets and territories in response to its customers needs. COMPETITION The Company encounters intense competition in each of the markets that it serves. The Company competes on the basis of quality, service, capacity, technical capability and price. Although price is an important competitive factor, the lowest price is seldom the sole determining factor. The cost of the Company's services is generally low in relation to the overall budget or anticipated revenues of the project. Quality, capacity and service remain the critical competitive factors in providing post production services. The Company's sound studio operations compete in both the feature film and television markets. In the film market, competition for sound services is predominantly driven by the skill and creativity of sound mixers. The Company does not believe that it has a major independent competitor for feature films in the Los Angeles marketplace. However, on a wider basis, LucasFilms in Marin County, California, Sound One in New York and certain London post production sound facilities compete with the Company for motion picture studio clientele. In the television market, the competition is intense and television pricing is constantly under pressure. In addition to competing with the major studios, the Company also competes with a wide array of independent post production sound facilities. The Company believes that its major competitors are Larson Sound, Four Media Company ("4MC"), West Productions, Echo Sound and Digital Sound and Picture. With respect to video services, a variety of other companies offer special effects, post production video and transmission services similar to those provided by Todd-AO. Many of these competitors are larger and have greater financial resources than the Company. Competition for video services within a geographical region tends to be highly fragmented with a few larger full service companies and numerous small firms specializing in only one or two services. Most small operations are centered around key personnel who serve one or two clients based on long-standing relationships. The Company believes its major direct competitors in the Los Angeles market for distribution, telecine and professional duplication work are 4MC, Modern Videofilm, Vidfilm, Fototronics and All Post. These companies all currently provide a significantly larger and more complete array of services and facilities than Todd-AO. The Company believes its major direct competition in the London market for transmission are Molinare, Oasis, Telecine and TVP. All provide a mixture of services for both large and small media clients across the broadcast sector, and are conveniently located in the prime vendor area in London's Soho district, close to many of the customers' offices. The Company believes its major competition in the 34 London market for film laboratory services are Rank, Technicolor, Metrocolor, Soho Images, Colour Film Services and Buck Laboratories. The Company believes its major direct competition in the Atlanta market for editing and graphics are Crawford Communications, Inc., Video Tape Associates, Inc. ("VTA") and Peachtree Post. Crawford Communications and VTA are both considerably larger and currently offer a more complete array of services and facilities than does Editworks. PROPERTIES Sound studio operations are conducted in various owned, leased or licensed premises in the Los Angeles area, New York City, Atlanta and London. The Company's facilities are adequate to support its anticipated business. The Company owns approximately 147,000 sq. ft. of building space in Los Angeles. In addition, approximately 127,000 sq. ft. of building space are subject to lease or license agreements. In London, Todd-AO owns the underlying freehold of 17,600 sq. ft. of building space. It leases this area to a third party under a lease agreement which expires in December 2042 and subleases the same area from its tenant under a lease agreement which expires in March 2008. Todd-AO also leases an additional 3,500 sq. ft. of its owned London property to a third party under a lease agreement which expires in June 2009. The Company also owns two undeveloped parcels of land in Killeen, Texas. The Company's Los Angeles sound studio facilities include premises licensed from CBS Studio Center under agreements expiring in 1999 and 2003. The agreement which expires in 2003 can be extended for an additional five years at the Company's option. The New York sound studio facilities operate under a lease agreement which expires in December 2002 and which can be extended for an additional five years at the Company's option. The New York lease agreement can be terminated by the Company at any time upon six months' written notice to the landlord. The Company's Los Angeles post production video service facility operates under a lease agreement for approximately 20,000 square feet which expires in August 1999 and which can be extended for two additional five-year terms or terminated on 90 days' written notice at the Company's option. The newly acquired Atlanta post production facility operates under a lease agreement for approximately 12,600 square feet which expires in December 2001 and which can be extended for two additional five-year terms. A portion of the London post production video and transmission facility is subject to a lease agreement which expires in March 2008. EMPLOYEES Todd-AO employs approximately 500 employees, some on a project-by-project basis. The Company has employment agreements with 60 of its key management, creative and technical personnel. The Company's sound studio creative and technical personnel are subject to a collective bargaining agreement with the International Association of Theatrical and Stage Employees. The Company has never experienced a work stoppage and considers relations with its employees to be excellent. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is involved in litigation and similar claims incidental to the conduct of its business. None of the pending actions is likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial statements. 35 MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS The executive officers and directors of the Company are as follows:

All plans relate solely to shares of Class A Common Stock. 1986 STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company's 1986 Stock Option Plan (the "1986 Plan") was approved by the shareholders in July 1987. The 1986 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (at not less than 100% of fair market value on the date of the grant), non-qualified stock options (at not less than 85% of fair market value on the date of the grant) or a combination thereof. An aggregate of 660,000 shares of Class A Common Stock was originally reserved for issuance under the 1986 Plan, which is administered by the Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors. Options to purchase an aggregate of 290,735 shares were outstanding under the 1986 Plan at August 31, 1996 as incentive and non-qualified options at exercise prices ranging from $2.03 to $5.06 per share. On February 7, 1995, the shareholders approved an extension of the termination date of the 1986 Plan until August 31, 2004 with respect to options for an aggregate of 213,675 shares granted on September 26, 1994. Nonqualified options to purchase an aggregate of 163,560 shares are fully vested and were scheduled to expire on August 31, 1996. The termination date of the 1986 Plan with respect to these options was extended as to 50% of the shares, until August 31, 1997 and, as to the remaining 50% of the shares, August 31, 1998, by the shareholders at the annual meeting held on March 27, 1996. 1994 STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Plan") was approved by the shareholders in August 1994. The 1994 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (at not less than 100% of fair market value on the date of the grant), non-qualified stock options (at not less than 85% of fair market value on the date of the grant) or a combination thereof. An aggregate of 330,000 shares has been reserved for issuance under the 1994 Plan. All of those shares have been awarded to Salah Hassanein (at an exercise price of $3.26 per share) and Marshall Naify and Robert A. Naify (at an exercise price of $3.59 per share) as incentive options to purchase 110,000 shares of Class A Common Stock each. The options vest over a five-year period commencing on September 1, 1994 and once vested terminate on August 31, 2003 (in the case of Mr. Hassanein) and June 23, 1999 (in the case of Messrs. Marshall Naify and Robert Naify). As of August 31, 1996, there were no options available for grant under the 1994 Plan and absent forfeitures, it is not expected that any additional options will be awarded. The 1994 Plan is administered by the Stock Option Committee. 1995 STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan") was approved by the shareholders in February 1995. The 1995 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (at not less than 100% of fair market value on the date of the grant), non-qualified stock options (at not less than 85% of fair market value on the date of the grant) or a combination thereof. An aggregate of 770,000 shares is reserved for issuance under the 1995 Plan. Options to purchase an aggregate of 387,910 shares were outstanding under the 1995 Plan at August 31, 1996 as incentive and non-qualified options at exercise prices ranging from $4.50 to $7.125 per share. The options vest over a five year period commencing on or near the date of grant and once vested terminate on August 31, 2004.

The total Class A and B Stock beneficially owned by The Naify Interests as of August 31, 1996 is 3,052,972 (46.32%) and 1,703,639 (97.51%), respectively before and percentages of 33.58% and 97.51%, respectively after. 42 DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 30,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $.01 par value, 6,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, $.01 par value, and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value. The par value for all classes was changed from $.25 to $.01 in July 1996. COMMON STOCK VOTING RIGHTS. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote and ten votes per share, respectively, on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, including the election of directors. With certain exceptions, and except as otherwise required by law the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class, subject to any voting rights which may be granted to holders of Preferred Stock. Since the Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares voting for election of directors can elect all members of the Board of Directors. However, if and whenever and for so long as dividends accrued and unpaid on the outstanding Class A Common Stock equal or exceed an amount equal to eight (8) full quarterly dividends on all shares of Class A Common Stock then outstanding, then, until all dividends in default on the Class A Common Stock shall have been paid, or declared and set aside, the holders of the Class A Common Stock, voting together as one class are entitled to elect two directors, and the remaining members of the Board of Directors are to be elected by the holders of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock voting together, as a single class, subject to any voting rights which may be granted to the holders of Preferred Stock. Except as provided in the next sentence, a majority vote is also sufficient for other actions that require the vote or concurrence of shareholders. The Company may not merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; sell, lease exchange or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; or dissolve; unless and until such transaction is authorized by the vote, if any, required by applicable law and the provisions of any Preferred Stock then outstanding; and unless and until such transaction is authorized by a majority of the shares voting of Class A Common Stock and of Class B Common Stock, each voting separately as a class, unless a greater vote is required by Delaware law. The Company may not effect the issuance of any additional shares of Class B Common Stock (except in connection with stock splits and stock dividends) unless and until such issuance is authorized by the holder of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock. See "Principal Shareholders." DIVIDEND RIGHTS. Subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock, holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of $.045 per share per year (subject to adjustment for stock splits and stock dividends) payable quarterly at dates fixed by the Board of Directors, before any cash dividend may be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock. Dividends on the Class A Common Stock are cumulative. Accumulations of dividends do not bear interest. If cash dividends are paid on the Class A Common Stock in excess of the minimum dividend specified, the excess of all such dividends (computed with respect to dividends paid after the date on which dividends begin to accumulate) over such minimum rate is to be applied to future periods to reduce the amount of any dividend which must be paid in such future period on the Class A Common Stock before cash dividends can be declared or paid on the Class B Common Stock. Subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock, and to holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock is entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property of the Company as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Company legally available therefor, provided that if at any time a cash dividend is paid on the Class A Common Stock (including dividends on the Class A Common Stock at the minimum rate), a cash dividend must also be paid on the Class B Common Stock equal to 90% of the amount of the dividend paid on the Class A Common Stock. In the case of dividends or other distributions payable in stock of the Company other than Preferred Stock, including distributions pursuant to stock splits or divisions of stock of the Company other than Preferred Stock, only shares of Class A Common Stock may be distributed with 43 respect to Class A Common Stock and only shares of Class B Common Stock in an amount per share equal to the amount per share paid with respect to the Class A Common Stock may be distributed with respect to Class B Common Stock, and that, in the case of any combination or reclassification of the Class A Common Stock, the shares of Class B Common Stock will also be combined or reclassified so that the number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately following such combination or reclassification bear the same relationship to the number os shares outstanding immediately prior to such combination or reclassification as the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately following such combination or reclassification bears to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such combination or reclassification. See "Price Range of Common Stock and Dividends." LIQUIDATION RIGHTS. After provision for the holders of any Preferred Stock, holders of Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to shareholders in the event of liquidation or dissolution. OTHER RIGHTS. Transfer of the Class B Common Stock is limited to certain permitted classes of transferees. Upon a disqualifying disposition or upon the election of the holder, Class B Common Stock may be converted into Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. The holders of Class A Common Stock have no conversion rights. The holders of Class A and Class B Common Stock have no preemptive rights. The shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby will be, when issued and paid for, fully paid and not liable for further call or assessment. PREFERRED STOCK Although the Company has no present plans to issue shares of Preferred Stock, Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more classes or series with such designations, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions as may be fixed by the Company's Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, without obtaining shareholder approval, could issue the Preferred Stock with voting or conversion rights and thereby dilute the voting power and equity of the holders of Common Stock and adversely affect the market price of such stock. See "Risk Factors--Control by Principal Shareholders; Potential Issuance of Preferred Stock; Anti-Takeover Provisions." CERTAIN EFFECTS OF AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED STOCK The authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available for future issuance without shareholder approval. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. TRANSFER AGENT The transfer agent and registrar of the Class A Common Stock is Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Co., New York, New York.

F-1 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of The Todd-AO Corporation: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Todd-AO Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of August 31, 1994, August 31, 1995 and May 31, 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended August 31, 1995 and the nine months ended May 31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 1994, August 31, 1995 and May 31, 1996 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended August 31, 1995 and the nine months ended May 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

F-9 THE TODD-AO CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE AND OPTION DATA) 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES OWNERSHIP AND BUSINESS--At May 31, 1996, Robert Naify, Marshall Naify, and certain members of their families and various trusts for the benefit of family members (the "Naify Interests") owned over 58% of the outstanding shares of the Company, representing approximately 84% of the total voting power. BASIS OF PRESENTATION--The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Todd-AO Studios East, Inc. ("Todd-AO East"), Todd-AO Productions, Inc., Todd-AO Digital Images, Inc. ("TDI"), Todd-AO Video Services, Inc. ("TVS"), Todd-AO Studios West ("TSW") and Todd-AO Europe Holding Ltd. ("TAO Europe")(See Note 2). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS--The Company considers investments with original purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND INVESTMENTS--Marketable securities consist primarily of corporate preferred stocks and bonds. Management has classified all investment securities as available-for-sale. As a result, securities are reported at fair value with net unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in stockholders' equity. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices using the specific identification method. Investments include stock and other investments which management intends to hold for more than one year. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION--Depreciation and amortization are computed at straight line rates based upon the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets. The principal rates are as follows: buildings, 3-5% per annum; equipment, 10-20% per annum; leaseholds, leasehold improvements, and lease acquisition costs over the term of the lease. GOODWILL--Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the net asset value of Chrysalis (See Note 2) and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of its intangible assets by determining whether the amortization of the intangible asset balance over its remaining life can be recovered through projected non-discounted future cash flows over the remaining amortization period. If projected future cash flows indicate that the unamortized intangible asset balances will not be recovered, an adjustment is made to reduce the net intangible asset to an amount consistent with projected future cash flows discounted at the Company's incremental borrowing rate. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION--The Company's foreign subsidiary's functional currency is its local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates. The effects of the foreign currency translation adjustments are deferred and are included as a component of stockholders' equity. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE--Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding for each of the periods presented including common share equivalents arising from the assumed conversion of any outstanding dilutive stock options. F-10 THE TODD-AO CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT PER SHARE AND OPTION DATA) 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--Statement of Financial and Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 107 requires disclosures of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Management believes that the book value approximates fair value of the Company's financial instrument because of the short-term nature of accounts receivable and variable interest rates associated with long-term debt. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK--The Company's accounts receivable are related primarily to the entertainment industry and are unsecured. The Company's ten largest customers account for approximately 50% of revenues and for the nine months ended May 31, 1996, one customer accounted for approximately 12% of revenues. USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECLASSIFICATIONS--Certain 1995 financial statement captions have been reclassified in order to conform to 1996 presentation. 2. ACQUISITIONS On August 31, 1994, TVS (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) acquired certain of the assets and liabilities of Film Video Masters ("Paskal"). TVS provides post production video services to the film and television industries. In consideration of the purchase, TVS paid Paskal $1,150 in cash and issued a note in the amount of $750. On February 15, 1995, TSW (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) acquired substantially all of the property, equipment and inventory of Kaytea Rose, Inc. (dba Skywalker Sound South)("SSS"). TSW provides post production sound services to the film and television industries. In consideration of the purchase, TSW paid $6,966 in cash. TSW is included in the Company's results of operations from February 1995. On March 16, 1995 TAO Europe (formerly FCB 1120, Ltd.)(a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) acquired all of the outstanding shares of Chrysalis/Todd-AO Europe Ltd. ("Chrysalis")(formerly Chrysalis Television Facilities, Ltd.) from Chrysalis Holdings Ltd. ("CHL"). TAO Europe, Chrysalis and CHL are all corporations organized under the laws of the United Kingdom and headquartered in London. Chrysalis specializes in the collation of television programming for satellite broadcast and also provides post production video and other services to a variety of clients. In consideration of the purchase, TAO Europe paid CHL $1,966 in cash at closing and issued a note in the amount of $1,364. An additional cash settlement of $220 was paid in June 1995. Concurrently with the acquisition, TAO Europe advanced and paid on behalf of Chrysalis its intercompany debt to CHL in the amount of $4,585.

In December 1994 the Company signed a long-term credit agreement with its bank which was amended in March 1995, April 1996 and June 1996. Under the agreement the Company may borrow up to $28,000 in revolving loans until February 28, 2000. On that date and quarterly thereafter until the expiration of the agreement on November 30, 2003, the revolving loan commitment shall reduce by 5% of the original loan commitment. Approximately $8,000 of the available credit is restricted to pound sterling borrowings. The agreement provides for interest at 1/2% plus reference rate; 1 1/2% plus offshore rates ("Libor") and 1 5/8% plus certificate of deposit rates ("CD")(Libor and CD minimum borrowings $1,000 or 500). These rates increase by 1/2% if certain financial ratios are exceeded. The pound sterling borrowings are restricted to Libor and CD options. The agreement contains various restrictive provisions, including investment, capital expenditure, cash dividends and borrowing limitations. As of May 31, 1996 the Company has not exceeded the interest rate financial ratios and is in compliance with the various restrictive provisions of the agreement. In connection with the acquisition of Paskal Video (See Note 2), the Company issued a promissory note. The note is payable in 60 monthly installments of $13 plus interest at the prime rate. In connection with the acquisition of Chrysalis (See Note 2), TAO Europe issued a note. The note is payable over a three year period in two installments of $465 and one installment of $388. Each installment bears interest at 1 1/2% above the prime rate of the National Westminster Bank in London. A mortgage note in the amount of $144 with interest at 10 3/4% was also assumed at the acquisition. In accordance with the provisions of the mortgage note, the Company elected to pay off the entire balance in November 1995. 5. CAPITALIZED LEASE OBLIGATIONS In 1994, the Company entered into lease obligations for equipment which have been capitalized. In addition, the Company acquired leases on certain other equipment with the Paskal and Chrysalis acquisitions (See Note 2). The leases have implicit interest rates ranging from 7 1/2% to 11 1/2% and are secured by the related equipment.

6. INCOME TAXES The Company's effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory income tax rate due to the following:
YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1993 1994 1995 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- --------- --------- Federal statutory income tax rate.................................... 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% Adjust to actual Company rate........................................

(1.7) (4.1) (1.2) --- --- --- Total................................................................ 36.9% 36.5% 33.6% --- --- --- --- --- ---
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

STOCK OPTION AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS PLANS STOCK OPTION PLANS The Company has three stock option plans: The 1986, 1994 and the 1995 Stock Option Plans. These plans provide for the granting of either non-qualified or incentive stock options at not less than 85% and 100% of the market value of the stock on the date of the grant, respectively. Options generally become exercisable in installments commencing as of the beginning of a fiscal year near the date of grant. The following summarizes stock option activity for the three years and nine months ended May 31, 1996:

STOCK OPTION AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS PLANS (CONTINUED) In October 1995, SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was issued. The Company does not intend to adopt the statement's fair value provisions except for disclosure and will continue to use the intrinsic method allowed by APB25. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS PLAN The 1991 Stock Appreciation Rights Plan (the "SAR Plan") was adopted by the Company effective February 6, 1991. The SAR Plan provided for the granting of stock appreciation rights which entitled the grantee to receive cash equal to the difference between the fair market value and the appreciation base of the Class A common stock when the rights were exercised. During 1995 the Company implemented a program to encourage the holders under the 1991 SAR Plan to exchange their SARs for stock options. Under the program, each SAR holder who exercised the vested portion of a SAR award during the April-May window period was entitled to exchange the entire SAR award for a replacement stock option under the 1995 Stock Option Plan. The replacement options were issued at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Class A stock on the respective dates of the SAR exercises, with an expiration date of August 31, 2004 (instead of the August 31, 2000 expiration date applicable to SAR awards) and with vesting restrictions no more favorable to the holder than those applicable to the exchanged SAR. Of the SARs outstanding under the 1991 Plan, all but 11,000 were exercised, resulting in a cash payment of $579. An aggregate of 303,367 incentive stock options and 82,623 nonqualified stock options were issued at exercise prices ranging from $4.50 to $5.06. The remaining 11,000 SARs were exercised in January 1996, terminating the SAR Plan. 9. COMMITMENTS OPERATING LEASES--Rent expense for noncancellable operating leases for real property and equipment was $3,363, $4,045, $1,034, and $915 for the nine months ended May 31, 1996 and for the years ended August 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively. Minimum rentals for operating leases for years ending after August 31, 1995 are as follows: 1996, $4,549; 1997, $4,379; 1998, $4,104; 1999, $4,048; 2000, $8,308; and $19,327, thereafter. Some of the leases have options to extend terms and are subject to escalation clauses and one lease is subject to additional rent based on revenue. EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS--At May 31, 1996, the Company is committed to compensation under long-term employment agreements with certain of its officers and key employees as follows: $1,680 in 1996, $1,208 in 1997 and $95 in 1998. 10. PENSION PLAN Certain officers and employees of the Company are eligible for participation in the "Motion Picture Industry Pension Plan", a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan.

The Joint Venture was dissolved during fiscal 1996. In the event that certain projects developed by the Venture are ultimately produced or otherwise commercialized, a portion of the proceeds is payable to Todd-AO Productions. 12. CONTINGENCIES The Company is involved in litigation and similar claims incidental to the conduct of its business.

BUSINESS COMBINATION: On March 1, 1994, Edit Acquisition LLC acquired substantially all the assets, and assumed certain liabilities of Editworks, Inc. The total purchase price was $1,517,536. As part of the purchase agreement, Edit Acquisition LLC agreed to indemnify Editworks, Inc. against certain potential contingencies arising subsequent to the sale. At this time, management is not aware of any unpaid potential liabilities which may arise. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION: The financial statements are presented on a comparative basis. Special attention should be given when analyzing the financial statements for comparative purposes since 1995 reflects twelve months of operations and 1994 reflects only ten months of operations. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The company considers cash and money market accounts to be cash and cash equivalents. At certain times during the year, balances in the bank accounts exceeded those limits insured by the FDIC. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE: Accounts receivable at December 31, 1995 and 1994, are net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $18,000 and $10,000, respectively. VIDEOTAPE INVENTORY: The videotape inventory consists of the archive library of videotapes that are expected to provide economic benefit in the future. The original cost is being amortized over a two-year period, beginning March 1, 1994. The value of the inventory is adjusted annually based on estimates. FURNITURE, FIXTURES, AND EQUIPMENT: Furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at cost. The balances at March 1, 1994 were derived from an allocation of the purchase price based on appraised fair market values at the date of acquisition. Acquisitions since inception are carried at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over estimated economic useful lives.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides for the indemnification of officers and directors under certain circumstances against expenses incurred in successfully defending against a claim, and authorizes Delaware corporations to indemnify their officers and directors under certain circumstances against expenses and liabilities incurred in legal proceedings involving such persons because of their being or having been an officer or director. The Bylaws of the registrant provide for indemnification of its officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law enables a corporation in its Certificate of Incorporation to limit or eliminate the personal liability of members of its Board of Directors for monetary damages for violations of a director's fiduciary duty of care. This Section does not, however, limit the liability of a director for breaching his or her duty of loyalty, failing to act in good faith, engaging in intentional misconduct or knowingly violating a law. The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of its directors to the maximum extent authorized by such Section 102(b)(7). For provisions of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws dealing with indemnification, see Exhibits 3(a) and 3(b). The Underwriting Agreement, the form of which is included as an Exhibit to this Registration Statement, provides that the Underwriters shall indemnify the Company and each person who controls the Registrant within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for any liability arising by reason of information furnished by the Underwriters for use in the Registration Statement. The Company maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance covering such persons in their official capacities with the Company and its subsidiaries. ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. Effective August 15, 1996, the Registrant issued 66,863 shares of Class A Common Stock valued at $14.50 per share to Edit Acquisition LLC ("Editworks") in partial consideration for the purchase of all of the assets and certain liabilities of Editworks.

- ------------------------ (1) To be filed by Amendment. ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities an Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer of controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective. (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall bedeemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. II-4 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of Los Angeles, State of California, on October 10, 1996.
