The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements. 5 DIGITAL GENERATION SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Effective for fiscal year 1999, beginning January 1, the Company elected to adjust its fiscal quarters so that each quarter is thirteen weeks in length and ends on the Saturday nearest to March 31, June 30, and September 30. Therefore, the first fiscal quarter of 1999 ended on April 3, 1999, second quarter ended on July 3, 1999 and third quarter will end on October 2, 1999. Fiscal fourth quarter will continue to end on December 31, 1999. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the results for the three and six month periods ended July 3, 1999. The results for the three and six month periods ended July 3, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Certain reclassifications were made to the previous 1998 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the 1999 presentation. The reclassifications have no significant effect on previously reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 2. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS Cash and cash equivalents consist of liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. As of July 3, 1999 and December 31, 1998, cash and cash equivalents consists principally of U.S. Treasury Bills and various money market accounts; as a result, purchase cost approximates the fair market value. 3. ACQUISITION DCI On September 25, 1998, the Company acquired substantially all of the property and assets, including all accounts receivable, inventories, contracts, equipment, real property leases and other related assets of Digital Courier International, Inc. ("DCI"). DCI is in the business of supplying electronic distribution and communications services for the radio broadcast industry in the United States and Canada. The Company paid $13.5 million in Canadian dollars (approximately US $9.06 million) for DCI. The DCI acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The excess of purchase price and acquisition costs over the fair value of assets acquired of approximately $6.2 million has been included in Goodwill and Other Assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of July 3, 1999, and is being amortized over a twenty year period. The operating results of DCI have been included in the consolidated results and balances of the Company from the date of the closing of the transaction, September 25, 1998. Amortization expense of $81,000 and $165,000 is included in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months periods ended July 3, 1999, respectively. 6 DIGITAL GENERATION SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Pro forma Results The following table reflects unaudited pro forma combined results of operations of the Company on the basis that the acquisition of DCI had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal 1998:

The unaudited pro forma combined results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the actual results that would have occurred had the acquisition of DCI been consummated at the beginning of fiscal 1998, nor of future operations of the combined companies under the ownership and management of the Company. 4. Segment Information: In 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The Company operates predominantly in one industry segment: digital and physical distribution and post-production services for audio and video content, and its operations are managed primarily by geographic areas. The Company has defined its reportable segments based on these geographic areas. The information in the following tables is derived directly from the segments' internal financial reporting used for corporate management purposes. The expenses, assets and liabilities attributable to corporate activity are not allocated to the operating segments. As of July 3, 1999, 5% of operating assets are located outside of the United States. The balance sheet information for the Company's Los Angeles segment is maintained as part of the Chicago segment and is impractical to break out separately.

8 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Certain Business Considerations in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Revenues Revenues were $12,120,000 for the three months ended July 3, 1999, a 20% increase from $10,097,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, and revenues for the six months ended July 3, 1999 were $23,580,000, an 18% increase from $19,971,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Revenues increased primarily due to the acquisition of DCI in September 1998. This acquisition accounted for a substantial potion of the increased combined revenue for the three months ended July 3, 1999 over the same period in 1998. In addition to the acquisition, the Company believes that the increase in delivery volumes is due to a number of other factors, including the increased acceptance of the services offered by the Company and the increased availability of an expanded network of Company equipment located in radio and television stations. Delivery and Material Costs Delivery and material costs were $4,769,000 for the three months ended July 3, 1999, a 30% increase from the $3,666,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Delivery and materials costs were $9,308,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999, a 26% increase from the $7,412,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in costs in each period versus the same period of the prior year is primarily due to the increased delivery volume, as well as a result of the acquisition of DCI. The increased costs include fees paid to other service providers for charges incurred by the Company for the receipt, transmission and delivery of information via the Company's distribution NOCs. Delivery and materials costs also include costs for video and audio tapes and the related packaging and shipping costs required when physically duplicating and distributing a video or audio spot. In addition, delivery and materials costs include the direct materials and fees paid to other service providers in connection with postproduction services and other services offered by the Company. Delivery and material costs related to the other services provided by the Company were 36% and 40% of their associated revenue for the three and six months ended July 3, 1999, and 39% and 43% of the associated revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively. The direct costs as a percentage of revenues associated with these services vary widely based on the numerous services performed and the rates negotiated with the customers using these services. In general, the direct costs of corporate duplication and satellite services have higher costs as a percentage of revenues than the Company's audio and video distribution services. Total delivery and material costs as a percentage of revenues increased to 39% of revenues from 36% of revenues in the three months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively; and increased to 39% of revenues from 37% of revenues in the six months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. The Company expects that delivery costs will increase in absolute dollars and may fluctuate as a percentage of revenues in future periods, influenced principally by volumes, average sales price and scale economies as video deliveries increase in volume. 9 Customer Operations Customer operations expenses were $3,971,000 and $3,468,000 for the quarters ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively, and $7,528,000 and $7,043,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. These increases are primarily due to the addition of the personnel necessary to respond to the greater volume of orders and deliveries. Customer operations expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 33% from 34% of revenues in the quarters ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively; and decreased to 32% of revenues from 35% of revenues in the six months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. This decrease is primarily due to process improvements in orders processed through the Company's NOC, which serves as the primary support for the digital network. The Company continually attempts to improve process flows in an effort to gain scale efficiencies. The Company expects that customer operations expenses will increase in absolute dollars and may fluctuate as a percentage of revenues in future periods. Moreover, the Company believes that in order to compete effectively and manage future growth, the Company will be required to continue to implement changes that improve and increase the efficiency of its customer operations. Sales and Marketing Sales and marketing expenses were $1,414,000 for the three months ended July 3, 1999, a 14% increase from $1,235,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, and increased 6% to $2,651,000 from $2,499,000 in the six months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. Sales and marketing expense increased in the three and six months ended July 3, 1999 from the same periods ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to the consolidation of the sales and marketing departments of DCI with that of the Company's. The Company expects to continue to expand sales and marketing programs designed to introduce the Company's services to the marketplace and to attract new customers for its services. The Company expects that sales and marketing expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods and may fluctuate as a percentage of revenue in future periods. Research and Development Research and development expenses increased 13% to $680,000 for the quarter ended July 3, 1999 from $601,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, and increased 9% to $1,292,000 from $1,189,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 and June 30, 1998 respectively. The increase reflects the costs incurred for various Year 2000 compliance issues, as well the addition of key personnel to address the future delivery capacity of the Company's network. The Company expects that additional research and development spending will be necessary to remain competitive and its future success will depend in significant part upon the technological quality of its products and processes relative to those of its competitors and its ability both to develop new and enhanced products and services. General and Administrative General and administrative expenses increased 9% to $1,102,000 for the quarter ended July 3, 1999, from $1,015,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998; and increased 28% to $2,609,000 from $2,044,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase is primarily due to the costs incurred to consolidate and upgrade the Company's order entry, billing, and financial reporting systems and the increase in staff as a result of the acquisition of DCI. General and administrative expenses have decreased to 9% and 11% of revenues for the quarter and six months ended July 3, 1999 from 10% for both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998. 10 Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased 17% to $2,402,000 in the quarter ended July 3, 1999 from $2,880,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1998; and decreased 15% to $4,866,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999 from $5,713,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Company acquired the bulk of its assets prior to December 31, 1996; therefore, beginning in fiscal year 1998, there has been a higher percentage of fixed assets which are reaching or have already reached the end of their depreciable life. The decline of depreciation expense in the first and second quarter of 1999 reflects this. As of July 3, 1999, the Company's total investment in network equipment has increased 13% to $35.2 million, from $31.1 million at June 30, 1998. The Company recorded amortization expense of $192,000 and $387,000 for the quarter and the six months ended July 3, 1999, and $327,000 and $653,000 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively. The increase in amortization expense from the acquisition of DCI in September 1998 was offset by the reduction in amortization expense due to the write down of the Mediatech subsidiary's net assets in the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The Company expects to continue to invest in the expansion of its network. In particular, the Company is in the process of expanding its infrastructure within the television broadcast industry that will require additional DG Video Transmission Systems and Digital Video Playback Systems ("DVPSs") to be built and installed in production studios and television stations. The Company expects depreciation and amortization to fluctuate in proportion to this growth. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will make such investments or that such investments will result in future revenue growth. Interest Income and Interest Expense Interest income increased 29% to $58,000 in the quarter ended July 3, 1999 from $45,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 and increased 34% to $153,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999, from $114,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1998. This increase is primarily the result of an increased level of cash and cash equivalents and short term investments in the first quarter and six months of 1999 over the first quarter and first six months of 1998. The Company expects that interest income will fluctuate in the future based on the levels of cash used in the Company's operations. Interest expense decreased 27% to $509,000 for the quarter ended July 3, 1999, from $696,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 and decreased 21% to $1,113,000 for the six months ended July 3, 1999, from $1,407,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the Company's outstanding debt, particularly its leasing and loan agreements used to fund the acquisition of components and equipment needed to develop the Company's network and to provide Company personnel with the capital resources necessary to support the Company's business growth. Debt outstanding under these agreements has decreased to $9.6 million at July 3, 1999 from $14.9 million at June 30, 1998. The Company expects that interest expense will fluctuate in the future based on the levels of borrowing. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $0.4 million in the six months ended July 3, 1999 from $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Company made capital additions of $2.6 million during the six months ended July 3, 1999 versus $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 1998. The capital additions in both periods were a result of the Company's continued expansion of its network. Principal payments on long-term debt were $4.6 million for the six months ended July 3, 1999 versus $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. At July 3, 1999, the Company's current sources of liquidity included cash and cash equivalents of $6.4 million. Based on management's current plans and forecasts, the Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity will satisfy the Company's projected working capital, capital lease and term loan commitments and other cash requirements through the foreseeable future. 11 Year 2000 Compliance Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure. Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to accept only two digit entries in the date code field. Beginning in the year 2000, these date codes fields will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century dates from 20th century dates. As a result, in less than six months, many such currently installed computer systems and software products used by many companies will need to be upgraded to enable such systems and computer hardware and software products to avoid the potential effects associated with the Year 2000 coding problem. To identify potential issues, the Company utilized a third party consulting firm to assess the Year 2000 risk regarding the level of dependence and the exposure of various internal and external systems and related applications upon which the Company may be dependent. With the completion of this third party assessment the Company has developed a formal project plan. The Company has completed a preliminary assessment of the components and applications of its network and has determined that a number of these components are Year 2000 compliant. The Company has a formal comprehensive project plan in place and is currently taking the steps it believes are necessary to make the remainder of the network and related applications, as well as the other systems utilized by the Company, Year 2000 compliant. The Company's project plan consists of five major phases: Awareness, Assessment, Detailed Analysis and Preliminary Testing, System Conversion and Testing, and Implementation. The above mentioned phases include education, a complete company wide inventory assessment, testing and correction of all non-compliant systems. Each piece of equipment or system identified by the Company will go through all five phases and will be completed at different times throughout the year. The Company's goal is to reach total Year 2000 compliance of all systems and equipment, technical and non-technical, by November 1999. The Company's strategy also includes development of contingency plans to address potential disruption of operations arising from the Year 2000 problem. The Company is in the development stage of contingency planning and, at this time, has not completed its contingency plan. Awareness: The Company believes that awareness of the Year 2000 problem is critical to its business and employees. Therefore, the Company has chosen several means of communicating the Year 2000 problem to each sector of its business. These include, but are not limited to, executive staff meetings, team meetings, E-mail notices, Website updates, and communication by US Mail to customers and vendors. Assessment: The Company is assessing all systems including hardware, application software and firmware. A complete company-wide inventory assessment is nearing completion and is necessary to determine any potential Year 2000 issues. The Company is currently reviewing each vendor's Year 2000 project plan and status. Each vendor has or will receive a compliance letter and questionnaire to allow the Company to gauge the vendor's compliance level. Non- Information Technology equipment such as elevators, security systems, and electric power, have been placed into the Service Provider category and each area is being monitored closely to ensure that no disruption in services will occur. Mission critical suppliers have been identified and contingency plans are being developed. Detailed Analysis & Preliminary Testing: The Company has completed preliminary testing and analysis on most mission critical systems. Remote testing of offsite systems hardware began in April. All offsite systems are expected to be Year 2000 compliant by the fourth quarter of 1999. The Company's financial systems are currently being upgraded. A detailed analysis and preliminary testing of each remaining system has been performed. System Conversion & Testing: The Company's network includes RPTs, CWs and DVPS strategically placed across the country in broadcasting stations. The Company has direct network control over its applications and has included detailed testing and correction of all source code and associated data elements. Each unit will be remotely tested and any necessary corrections or modifications will be made. Internally, the Company utilizes many third party application software programs as well as programs developed in-house. Upgrades and modifications will be tested and implemented as needed. Implementation: The Company will implement new or upgraded software as needed to minimize disruption from Year 2000. All systems compliance information will be documented and a contingency plan for each system or service is scheduled to be in place 12 by November of 1999. Risks: Although the Company has direct programming control over its network applications, there can be no assurance that the Company's computer hardware and software products will contain all necessary code changes in their date code fields to avoid any or all damaging interruptions and other problems associated with date entry limitations. The Company is also dependent upon other third parties, in particular its telephone and satellite transmission suppliers, in order to provide its electronic distribution services. The Company is in the process of obtaining relevant information from these suppliers in order to increase awareness of potential issues. If such vendors' systems are not Year 2000 compliant, it could have a material adverse affect on the Company's operations. At this time, the Company has not fully quantified the potential impact of third party vendor Year 2000 issues. The Company believes that the purchasing pattern of its current and potential customers may be affected by the Year 2000 problem in a variety of ways. For example, as the Year 2000 approaches, some of the Company's current customers may develop concerns about the reliability of the Company's electronic delivery services and, as a result, shift their delivery work to less technical dub and ship operations. Likewise, some potential customers of the Company with the same concern may elect not to utilize the Company's electronic delivery services until after Year 2000 and beyond. If any current customers of the Company shift some or all of their delivery work to other delivery providers, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected, and if any potential customers elect not to utilize the Company's delivery services for any period of time on the basis of Year 2000 concerns, the Company's business and financial prospects for growth could be adversely affected. In addition to the foregoing, in the event that the Company does experience interruptions and problems with its computer hardware and software products due to Year 2000 limitations of such products, some or all of the Company's current customers may shift some or all of their delivery work to other delivery providers without Year 2000 problems. Moreover, potential customers of the Company may elect not to utilize the Company's delivery services in the event of any such interruptions and problems. Any of the foregoing could result in a loss of revenues which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. At this time, the Company is developing detailed contingency plans for the possibility of significant disruption due to Year 2000 issues. Preliminary discussions have been held but completion of the development of such a contingency plan will be dependent upon the findings and resulting actions taken based on the risk assessment studies discussed above. Costs: The Company currently does not anticipate that the direct resource requirements or expenses of the Company related to resolving Year 2000 issues will have a significant adverse effect on its operating results or financial position. To date, the Company has incurred approximately $900,000 in Year 2000 readiness related costs, and estimates that total Year 2000 related costs will be approximately $1.9 million. The foregoing assessment is based on information currently available to the Company. The Company can provide no assurance that applications and equipment that the Company believes to be Year 2000 compliant will not experience problems. Failure by the Company or third parties on which it relies to resolve Year 2000 problems could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. 13 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On February 6, 1999, City National Bank filed a lawsuit against Starcom Television Services, Inc. ("Starcom Television"), a predecessor in interest of the Company's Mediatech subsidiary, Gary J. Worth, a former officer of Starcom Television, and certain other parties in Superior Court of California for the County of Los Angeles. The lawsuit alleges causes of action for breaches of a certain September 1993 Assumption Agreement whereby Starcom Television allegedly agreed to assume certain monetary obligations of Program Entertainment Group, Inc. to City National Bank. City National Bank is seeking monetary damages plus interest and recovery of certain collateral. These claims arose prior to the Company's acquisition of Mediatech. The Company believes it has several material defenses to these claims as well as claims for indemnity against certain of the co-defendants and other third parties. In the event that the Company's defenses are unsuccessful, the Company may be required to pay damages and deliver collateral to City National Bank, and such a judgment could seriously harm the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company may from time to time become involved in litigation proceedings incidental to the conduct of its business. Other than as set forth above, the Company does not believe that any such proceedings presently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Item 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES Not applicable. Item 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES Not applicable. Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION As mentioned in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for fiscal year 1999, beginning January 1, the Company elected to adjust its fiscal quarters so that each quarter is thirteen weeks in length and ends on the Saturday nearest to March 31, June 30, and September 30. Therefore, the first fiscal quarter of 1999 ended on April 3, 1999, second quarter ended on July 3, 1999 and third quarter will end on October 2, 1999. Fiscal fourth quarter will continue to end on December 31, 1999. Item 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a) Exhibits
