The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements
of Communications & Power Industries, Inc. ("CPI" or "Successor") have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements have been condensed or omitted and, accordingly, these
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and the notes thereto contained in CPI's September 27, 1996 Annual Report on
Form 10-K. Management believes that these unaudited interim condensed financial
statements contain all adjustments, all of which are of a normal, recurring
nature, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim period
presented.

During the quarter ended July 4, 1997, CPI paid preferred dividends on its
Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock and its Junior Preferred Stock through the
issuance of 6,429 additional shares of its Senior Redeemable Preferred Stock and
4,286 shares of its Junior Preferred Stock, respectively. During the three
quarters ended July 4, 1997, the Company paid preferred dividends through the

Report on Form 10-K. Management believes that these unaudited interim condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments, all of which are of a normal,
recurring nature, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim
period presented.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Orders during the third quarter of Fiscal 1997 were $74.1 million as compared to
$61.5 for the third quarter of Fiscal 1996, an increase of 20.4%. Orders during
the first nine months of Fiscal 1997 were $215.8 million as compared to $198.3
million over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year, a growth rate of
8.8%. However, incoming order levels fluctuate significantly on a quarterly
basis and a particular quarter's order rate may not be indicative of future
order levels. In addition, the Company's sales are highly dependent upon
manufacturing scheduling, performance and shipments and, accordingly, it is not
possible to accurately predict when these orders will be recognized as sales.

As of July 4, 1997, the Company had an order backlog of $180.9 million,
representing over eight months of sales compared to order backlog of $153.4
million as of June 28, 1996.

Sales for the third quarter of Fiscal 1997 were $66.2 million compared to $62.0
million for the third quarter of Fiscal 1996, an increase of 6.7%. Compared to
the first and second quarters of Fiscal 1997 with revenues of $55.3 million and
$63.9 million, respectively, the third quarter reflects the Company's
anticipated recovery from shipping delays tied to consolidation efforts that
were completed earlier in the year. Although improvements have been made, the
Company has continued to experience below expected performance levels on the
product lines moved from Salt Lake City, Utah to San Carlos, California
primarily due to poor tooling quality and parts shortages by outside vendors
that are struggling to meet the higher volume level. Sales for the first nine
months of Fiscal 1997 were $185.4 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 1.5%,
below the comparable period in the prior fiscal year, due to the impact that the
relocation of facilities had on the beginning of the 1997 fiscal year.

In terms of markets, lower sales for the first nine months of Fiscal 1997
compared to Fiscal 1996 were due to lower sales in the electronic
countermeasures and industrial markets of $5.4 million and $2.0 million,
respectively, partially offset by higher sales in each of the Company's other
markets. Sales were down in electronic countermeasures due to product
development delays in a new transmitter application and in the industrial market
due to the timing of customer defined delivery schedules. Sales in the
communications market were up $2.2 million, or 2.5%, reflecting the impact of
new product releases. Radar sales were up $1.7 million, or 3.0%, as a result of
strong order receipts for spares and upgrades from both OEM's and government
agency end users. Medical and scientific sales increased by $.3 million, or
2.8%, and $.4 million, or 14.8%, respectively.

Gross profit increased to $19.4 million, or 29.4% of sales, in the third quarter
of Fiscal 1997 from $16.0 million, or 25.8% of sales, in the third quarter of
Fiscal 1996 based on higher volume and improvements resulting from consolidation
efforts. This third quarter improvement helped to offset lower margins
experienced in the first and second quarters so that gross profit for the first
nine months of Fiscal 1997 improved to 27.0% of sales compared to 26.7% of sales
in the first nine months of Fiscal 1996, despite an increase in depreciation
expense of $1.2 million, or .6% of sales. As stated above, improvements have
been made in sales volume and, therefore, in gross profit performance, but gross
margins have continued to be impacted by poor production uniformity in the
Company's San Carlos facility.

                    COMMUNICATIONS & POWER INDUSTRIES, INC.,
                                and subsidiaries
              (A wholly owned subsidiary of Communications & Power
                        Industries Holding Corporation)


Operating income was $9.0 million, or 13.5% of sales, for the third quarter of
Fiscal 1997, as compared to $5.6 million, or 9.0% of sales, for the third
quarter of Fiscal 1996. Operating income was $20.2 million, or 10.9% of sales,
for the first nine months of Fiscal 1997, as compared to $19.9 million, or 10.6%
of sales, for the first nine months of Fiscal 1996. In addition to the
improvements resulting from the completion of the Company's consolidation
efforts, operating income was positively affected by slightly lower operating
costs and expenses primarily related to lower management incentive accruals.

Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")
for the third quarter of Fiscal 1997 was $11.4 million, or 17.2% of sales,
compared to $7.6 million, or 12.2% of sales, for the third quarter of Fiscal
1996. This improvement was, as mentioned above, related to the completion of
consolidation efforts that were initially started in the third quarter of Fiscal
1996. EBITDA for the first nine months of Fiscal 1997 was $27.3 million, or
14.7% of sales, compared to $27.3 million (excluding a $1.7 million charge for
the write-up of inventory), or 14.5% of sales, for the first nine months of
Fiscal 1996.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of Fiscal 1997
was $5.7 million, a decrease of $4.7 million from the $10.3 million provided by
operating activities during the first nine months of Fiscal 1996. This decrease
in cash flow reflects the impact of strong shipments late in the third quarter
of Fiscal 1997 resulting in an increase in receivables. Advanced payments from
customers were also $4.1 million less in the first nine months of Fiscal 1997
compared to the nine months of Fiscal 1996 due to the nature of the programs
being worked on during the two time periods.

Cash flow from investing activities was comprised principally of capital
expenditures for property and equipment, which amounted to $7.9 million for the
first nine months of Fiscal 1997 as compared to $8.4 million for the first nine
months of Fiscal 1996. These investing activities, partially offset by cash
provided by operations, required $3.0 million of net proceeds from the Company's
senior credit agreement.

As of July 4, 1997, the Company had working capital of approximately $36.4
million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 5.2%, from September 27, 1996. The
increase in working capital was substantially attributable to higher levels of
inventory required to support recent increases in backlog.

The Company's current primary source of liquidity, other than funds generated
from operations, is the $35.0 million revolving credit facility provided under
its senior credit agreement (of which $5.6 million was available as of August 1,
1997). Management believes that the Company will have adequate capital resources
and liquidity (including cash flow from operations and borrowing under its
revolving credit facility) to meet its obligations, fund all required capital
expenditures and pursue its business strategy for the foreseeable future and, in
any event, for the next 12 months.
