   Statements in this report concerning the future revenues, 
profitability, financial resources, product mix, market demand, 
product development and other statements in this report 
concerning the future results of operations, financial condition 
and business of PCD Inc. are "forward-looking" statements as 
defined in the Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act 
of 1934.  Investors are cautioned that the Company's actual 
results in the future may differ materially from those projected 
in the forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties 
that exist in the Company's operations and business environment, 
including the Company's dependence on the integrated circuit 
package interconnect and semiconductor industries, the Company's 
dependence on its principal customers and independent 
distributors, acquisitions and indebtedness, international sales 
and operations, fluctuations in demand for the Company's 
products, patent litigation involving the Company, rapid 
technological evolution in the electronics industry and the like. 

     In addition, the Company may experience unanticipated costs 
or other difficulties in connection with the acquisition and 
integration of a business such as Wells Electronics, Inc.  The 
Company's most recent filings with the Securities and Exchange 
commission, including Form 10-K, contain additional information 
concerning such risk factors, and copies of these filings are 
available from the Company upon request and without charge.

       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    (March 28, 1998 Unaudited)

Note 1.  INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The condensed consolidated 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, although the 
Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the 
information presented not misleading. This financial data should 
be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and 
notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1997 which are 
included in the Company's Form 10-K filing. Results for the 
interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of 
results to be anticipated for the entire year.  All financial 
statements subsequent to December 26, 1997 include the 
acquisition of Wells Electronics, Inc. by the Company accounted 
for on the purchase method of accounting and include all 
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in the interim 
periods presented.  All adjustments made are of a normal 
recurring nature. 

Note 2.  NET INCOME PER SHARE

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board 
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, 
Earnings Per Share ("FAS 128").  In accordance with FAS No. 128, 
the following tables reconcile net income and weighted average 
shares outstanding to the amounts used to calculate basic and 
diluted earnings per share for each of the periods ended March 
28, 1998 and March 29, 1997:

Note 4.  CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

     Effective January 1, 1998, PCD adopted Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive 
Income." This Statement requires that all items recognized under 
accounting standards as components of comprehensive earnings be 
reported in an annual financial statement that is displayed with 
the same prominence as other annual financial statements. This 
Statement also requires that an entity classify items of other 
comprehensive earnings by their nature in an annual financial 
statement. For example, other comprehensive earnings may include 
foreign currency translation adjustments, minimum pension 
liability adjustments, and unrealized gains and losses on 
marketable securities classified as available-for-sale. Annual 
financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified, as 
required. PCD's total comprehensive earnings were as follows:

Note 5.  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosure 
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
(FAS 131), which goes into effect in 1998.  FAS 131 requires the 
reporting in the financial statements of certain new additional 
information about operating segments of a business.  Application 
of FAS 131 is not required for interim reporting in the initial 
year of application.  PCD is currently evaluating the impact that 
FAS 131 will have on its future reporting requirements.

Note 6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On April 22, 1998, the Company sold 2,000,000 shares of its 
Common Stock and received net proceeds of approximately $37.0 
million. On May 6, 1998, the Company sold an additional 300,000 
shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the 
Underwriters' over-allotment option and the Company received net 
proceeds of approximately $5.7 million. The total net proceeds of 
approximately $42.7 million from the Company's public offering 
(pursuant to a registration statement that was declared effective 
April 16, 1998) are not reflected on the March 28, 1998 
Consolidated Balance Sheet and the Consolidated Statement of Cash 
Flows.  The proceeds of this offering were used to pay off the 
$25 million subordinated debenture and a portion of the Senior 
Bank financing.

Note 7.  LITIGATION

     On August 21, 1995, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, 
CTi Technologies, Inc. ("CTi"), filed an action in the United 
States District Court for the District of Arizona against Wayne 
K. Pfaff, an individual residing in Texas ("Pfaff"), and 
Plastronics Socket Company, Inc., a corporation affiliated with 
Pfaff, alleging and seeking a declaratory judgment that two 
United States patents issued to Pfaff and relating to certain 
burn-in sockets for "leadless" IC packages (the "Pfaff Leadless 
Patent") and ball grid array ("BGA") IC packages (the "Pfaff BGA 
Patent") (collectively, the "Pfaff Patents") are invalid and are 
not infringed by CTi, the products of which include burn-in 
sockets for certain "leaded" packages (including Quad Flat Paks) 
(the "CTi Leaded Products") and BGA packages (the "CTi BGA 
Products") (collectively, the "CTi Products"). Pfaff has filed a 
counterclaim alleging that CTi infringes the Pfaff Leadless 
Patent and has requested an award of damages; the counterclaim 
does not allege infringement of the Pfaff BGA Patent. Pfaff has

                                 9
<PAGE>
also sought a permanent injunction against further infringement 
by CTi of the Pfaff Leadless Patent. That action has been stayed 
pending resolution of another action, described below, involving 
the Pfaff Leadless Patent.

     In litigation between Wells and Pfaff concerning the Pfaff 
Leadless Patent, the United States Court of Appeals for the 
Federal Circuit has found all of the individual descriptions of 
the invention (the "Claims" of the patent) of  the Pfaff Leadless 
Patent which were at issue in that case to be invalid. The basis 
for the decision of the Court of Appeals was a finding that the 
invention covered by the Pfaff Leadless Patent had been "on sale" 
for more than one year before the filing of a patent application. 
An invention that has been "on sale" for more than one year 
before the filing of the patent application may not be patented. 
Certain other Claims of the patent were not at issue in the Pfaff 
v. Wells case, and their validity was not decided by the Court of 
Appeals, because Pfaff did not allege that products of Wells 
infringed such Claims.  These other Claims include design 
elements not incorporated into products of Wells or CTi, 
including the use of contact pins formed with a pair of parallel 
blades extending from a common base.   The United States Supreme 
Court has accepted  an appeal on the Pfaff v. Wells case, limited 
to the question of whether the Pfaff Leadless Patent should have 
been held invalid on the basis of the "on sale" bar if Pfaff's 
invention was not "fully completed" more than one year before he 
filed his patent application.  The Supreme Court could affirm or 
reverse the decision of the Court of Appeals.  If the Supreme
Court affirms the decision of the Court of Appeals, the 
determination of invalidity of the Claims at issue in the Pfaff 
v. Wells case will become final.  This determination will be 
binding with respect to such Claims in the CTi v. Pfaff action in 
the District of Arizona.  The reasoning of the Pfaff v. Wells 
decision, moreover, could support CTi's position that the 
remaining Claims of that patent are invalid.  This conclusion is 
based on the Company's belief that the invention covered by such 
remaining Claims was also "on sale" for more than one year before 
the date of the application for the Pfaff Leadless Patent.  If 
the Supreme Court reverses the decision of the Court of Appeals, 
the lower courts will then determine the validity of the Claims 
of the Pfaff Leadless Patent at issue on other grounds and will 
determine whether the products of Wells infringe on these Claims 
of the Pfaff Leadless Patent.

     The Company believes, based on the advice of counsel, that 
CTi and Wells have meritorious defenses against any allegations
of infringement under the Pfaff Patents, and, if necessary, CTi

                                   10
<PAGE> 
and Wells will vigorously litigate their positions. There can be 
no assurance, however, that the Company, CTi or Wells will 
prevail in any pending or future litigation, and a final court 
determination that CTi or Wells has infringed the Pfaff Leadless 
Patent could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Such 
adverse effect could include, without limitation, the requirement 
that CTi or Wells pay substantial damages for past infringement 
and an injunction against the manufacture or sale in the United 
States of such products as are found to be infringing.

       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    (March 28, 1998 Unaudited)

Note 1.  INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The condensed consolidated 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, although the 
Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the 
information presented not misleading. These financial statements 
have been prepared on the basis of Wells Electronics, Inc. 
historical records and do not reflect any adjustments related to 
the purchase of Wells by PCD, which occurred on December 26, 
1997.  This financial data should be read in conjunction with the 
audited financial statements and notes thereto for the period 
ended December 26, 1997 which are included in the Company's Form 
10-K filing. 


Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     As used herein, the terms "Company" and "PCD," unless 
otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, refer to 
PCD Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Wells Electronics, Inc. 
and its subsidiaries ("Wells").  However, all financial 
information for periods ended before December 26, 1997, unless 
otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, is for PCD 
Inc. and its subsidiaries, excluding Wells and its subsidiaries.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 28, 1998 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 
29, 1997

     NET SALES.  Net sales increased 169.0% to $16.7 million for 
the quarter ended March 28, 1998, from $6.2 million for the 
quarter ended March 29, 1997. This change in net sales  of $10.5 
reflects the results of the incorporation of the Wells 
acquisition and a 25% growth in sales of the Company's (excluding 
Wells) existing business. Sales attributable to the acquisition 
in the first quarter of 1998 were $9.0 million. The projects 
recorded as in-process research and development ("IPR&D") 

                                  14
<PAGE>
are proceeding according to the Company's estimates and 
expectations. 

     GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit increased to $9.5 million for 
the quarter ended March 28, 1998, from $3.0 million for the 
quarter ended March 29, 1997. As a percentage of net sales, gross 
margin increased to 56.7% for the quarter ended March 28, 1998 
from 47.5% for the quarter ended March 29, 1997. The improvement 
in the gross profit reflects the integration of the higher margin 
burn-in socket product line from the Wells acquisition.

     OPERATING EXPENSES.  Operating expenses include selling, 
general and administrative expenses and costs of product 
development. Operating expenses were $4.8 million, or 28.9% of 
net sales, for the quarter ended March 28, 1998, compared to
$1.4 million, or 21.8% of net sales, for the quarter ended March 
29, 1997.  The dollar increase in operating expenses of $3.4 
million reflects the additional costs due to the inclusion of the 
Wells acquisition as well as the amortization of intangible 
assets associated with the Wells acquisition of $1.1 million.

     INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET.  Interest expense 
and other income, net,  increased to an expense of $4.7 million 
in the quarter ended March 28, 1998 from income of $0.3 million 
in the quarter ended March 29, 1997. The increase in interest 
expense is made up of two components, the interest expense 
associated with the debt incurred in connection with the Wells
acquisition of $2.4 million and the amortization of the Emerson 
Warrant as interest expense of $2.3 million.  In the second 
quarter, there will be additional interest expense of 
approximately $600,000 for the final portion of the amortization 
of the Emerson Warrant and an additional $812,500 related to the 
pre-payment penalty on the Subordinated Debenture. The Company 
expects that after the second quarter, the interest expense will 
decline due to the pay off of the Subordinated Debenture and a 
partial payoff of the Senior Credit Facility as a result of the 
net proceeds from the public offering. See Note 6 to the Notes of 
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for PCD Inc.

     PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES.  The provision for income taxes 
for the quarter ended March 28, 1998 was approximately $17,000 on 
a pre-tax loss of approximately $10,000. This compares to 36.8% 
in the quarter ended March 29, 1997. The change in the effective 
income tax rate is due to the application of the appropriate 
effective tax rates for each of the state and foreign tax 
jurisdictions in which the Company operates.


                                 15
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash provided by operating activities in the quarter ended 
March 28, 1997 was $1.5 million, compared to $0.5 million in the 
quarter ended March 27, 1997. These funds were sufficient to meet 
capital expenditures of approximately $0.8 million and financing 
needs. The Company currently anticipates that its capital 
expenditures for 1998 will be approximately $7 million, which 
consists primarily of purchased tooling and equipment required to 
support the Company's business. The amount of these anticipated
capital expenditures will frequently change based on future 
changes in business plans and conditions of the Company and 
changes in economic conditions.

     In December 1997, the Company obtained a Senior Credit 
Facility for $90 million from Fleet National Bank and other 
lenders (the "Senior Credit Facility") to finance in part the 
Wells acquisition. In addition, the Company obtained $25 million 
in subordinated debt financing from Emerson Electric Co. 
("Emerson") pursuant to a Subordinated Debenture (the 
"Debenture") issued to Emerson.  On April 22, 1998, the Company 
repaid 100% of the Subordinated Debenture and a portion  of the 
outstanding balance on its Senior Credit Facility from proceeds 
of a public offering of its Common Stock.

     The Company believes its existing working capital and 
borrowing capacity, coupled with the funds generated from the 
Company's operations, will be sufficient to fund its anticipated 
working capital, capital expenditure and debt payment 
requirements through 1999. Because the Company's capital 
requirements cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no 
assurance that any additional financing will be available on 
terms satisfactory to the Company or not disadvantageous to the 
Company's stockholders.
