NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
JUNE 30, 1997


Note 1:   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance  with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not
include all  information and footnotes  necessary for  presentation of financial
position,  results of operations,  and cash flows required by generally accepted
accounting  principles  for  complete  financial  statements.   The  information
furnished reflects all adjustments  (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
which are, in the opinion of  management,  necessary  for a fair  summary of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented.  The  financial  statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the
financial  statements  and notes thereto filed with Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996.

Note 2:   Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share amounts for all periods  reflect a 5% stock  dividend paid on
June 9, 1997.

Note 3: Acquisitions

On July 17, 1997,  the Company  consummated  its  acquisition  of 65% of Lite-On
Power Semiconductor  Corporation, a Republic of China (Taiwan) company ("LPSC"),
and a member of Taiwan's Lite-On Group of companies, for a net purchase price of
US$130 million.

LPSC produces diodes,  primarily in the Far East, with manufacturing  facilities
in Taipei, Taiwan;  Shanghai,  China; and Lee's Summit, Missouri. LPSC also owns
approximately   40.2%  of  Diodes,   Inc.  (AMEX:  DIO),  located  in  Westlake,
California.  Diodes  is a U.S.  public  company  traded  on the  American  Stock
Exchange.

Diodes are discrete semiconductor components used to convert electrical currents
from AC to DC and are  used  in all  electronic  equipment  that  requires  such
conversion.

Pursuant to the Stock  Purchase  Agreement,  dated April 25,  1997,  among LPSC,
Silitek Corporation ("Silitek"), Lite-On Technology Corporation, Dyna Investment
Co., Ltd., Lite-On Inc. and other shareholders as Sellers,  and the Company,  as
Purchaser (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"),  the Company,  through two Singapore
entities,  acquired  approximately  100% of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of LPSC for cash consideration of US$200 million.


                                      -8-

<PAGE>

The purchase  was made by a Singapore  company  (the "Joint  Venture  Company"),
whose capital stock at the time of the acquisition was 50% owned directly by the
Company,  and 50% owned by another  Singapore  company (the "Holding  Company"),
which at the time was a wholly owned  subsidiary  of the  Company.  The purchase
price was funded by current  availability  under the Company's  existing  credit
facilities, which  were  amended  as of June 30,  1997 to  reflect  a number  of
technical  modifications  necessary to permit the LPSC acquisition and the Joint
Venture described below.

Concurrently with the consummation of the acquisition,  pursuant to the terms of
the Joint  Venture  Agreement,  dated April 25, 1997,  between the Company and a
company  formed by Silitek and certain other  shareholders  of LPSC,  Lite-On JV
Corporation ("JV"), which agreement was amended as of July 17, 1997 (as amended,
the  "Joint  Venture  Agreement"),  JV  purchased  from the  Company  35% of its
interest in the Holding  Company and 17.5% of its interest in the Joint  Venture
Company for consideration of $70 million.

In connection  therewith,  JV received stock appreciation rights ("SARs") in the
Company,  which  represent  the right to receive  the  increase  in value on the
equivalent  of  1,625,000  shares of the  Company's  stock  above $23 per share.
Subject to certain annual and other adjustments, the Company may redeem the SARs
if the  Company's  stock  trades above $43 per share.  At that price,  the SAR's
would entitle JV to 755,813 shares of the Company's common stock.

The Joint Venture Agreement also defines the terms of the management of LPSC and
its  subsidiaries  and the  agreement  between  the Company and JV to market the
Company's products in Asia and LPSC's products throughout the world.

The foregoing  summaries of the Stock  Purchase  Agreement and the Joint Venture
Agreement  (including the amendment  thereto) are qualified in their entirety by
reference to the text of each of such agreements, which are filed as exhibits to
the Company's  report on Schedule 13D, filed on July 25, 1997,  which agreements
are incorporated herein by reference.

The summary of the amendment to the Company's credit  facilities is qualified in
its entirety by reference  to the text of such  amendment,  which is filed as an
exhibit hereto and which is incorporated herein by reference.

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

Results of Operations

Income  statement  captions as a percentage of sales and the effective tax rates
were as follows:

Net earnings                      7.3     1.4     7.3     5.4

Net sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased  $841,000
or .3% and $38,239,000 or 6.5%, respectively, from the comparable periods of the
prior  year.  The  decrease  in net  sales is  related  to a number  of  factors
including  price  reductions in the Company's  "commodity"  products  (tantalum,
ceramic and resistor  chips).  As a result of competitive  pressures,  prices of
these  products  have been  reduced  between  10% and 20% in the past  year.  In
addition,  the  strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign  currencies for
the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 in comparison to the prior year's
periods, resulted in decreases in reported sales of $12,005,000 and $24,286,000,
respectively.

Costs of products  sold for the quarter and six months  ended June 30, 1997 were
75.9% and 76.0% of net  sales,  respectively,  as  compared  to 73.7% and 73.1%,
respectively,  for the  comparable  prior year  periods.  Gross  profits for the
quarter  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 were  negatively  affected  by a
difficult pricing environment.

Israeli  government  grants,  recorded as a reduction of costs of products sold,
were  $2,801,000  and  $5,425,000  for the quarter and six months ended June 30,
1997, respectively,  as compared to $2,061,000 and $4,201,000 for the comparable
prior year periods.  Future grants and other incentive  programs  offered to the
Company by the Israeli government will likely depend on the Company's continuing
to increase  capital  investment  and the number of the  Company's  employees in
Israel. Deferred income at June 30, 1997


                                      -10-

<PAGE>

relating to Israeli government grants was $60,869,000 as compared to $58,570,000
at December 31, 1996.

Selling,  general,  and  administrative  expenses for the quarter and six months
ended June 30,  1997 were 12.4% of net sales,  as  compared  to 14.1% and 13.5%,
respectively,  for the  comparable  prior year  periods.  Selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses decreased by $4,768,000 and $11,224,000,  respectively,
as compared to the prior year periods, as a result of the cost reduction program
instituted in 1996.

The Company recorded a pretax restructuring  charge of $24,280,000  ($16,000,000
after tax) in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 in connection  with a reduction of
approximately 1,300 employees in the Company's worldwide workforce.  The Company
also closed or downsized several facilities in North America and Europe.

Interest  costs  decreased by $1,005,000  and $1,597,000 for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, from the comparable prior year periods
primarily as a result of reductions of bank  indebtedness  using cash  generated
from operating activities.

The  effective  tax rate for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 was 27.6% as
compared to 25.2% for the comparable  prior year period.  The effective tax rate
for calendar year 1996 was 25.2%.  The lower tax rate for the quarter ended June
30, 1996 was due primarily to the  restructuring  charges recorded in the higher
tax rate  countries,  where the Company  conducts its business.  The  continuing
effect of low tax rates in Israel  (as  compared  to the  statutory  rate in the
United  States) has been to increase net earnings by $2,931,000  and  $4,165,000
for the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively,  and $4,451,000 and
$8,538,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The more favorable  Israeli tax rates are applied to specific  approved projects
and normally continue to be available for a period of ten years.

Financial Condition

Cash flows from  operations  were  $92,184,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1997 compared to $48,670,000  for the prior year's period.  The increase in cash
flows from  operations  is primarily  due to a decrease in inventory for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to an increase in  inventory  for the six
months ended June 30, 1996.  Net  purchases  of property and  equipment  for six
months ended June 30, 1997 were $34,812,000 compared to $77,546,000 in the prior
year's   period.   This  decrease   reflects  the  fact  that  the  Company  has
substantially  completed its current  restructuring/expansion  program. Net cash
used by financing


                                      -11-


<PAGE>

activities  of  $37,909,000  for the six  months  ended June 30,  1997  includes
$45,981,000 used to pay down bank indebtedness.

The Company incurred a pretax  restructuring  charge of $38,030,000 for the year
ended  December 31, 1996.  Approximately  $28,953,000 of these charges relate to
employee termination costs covering  approximately 2,600 technical,  production,
administrative  and  support  employees  located in the United  States,  Canada,
France and Germany. As of June 30, 1997, approximately 2,199 employees have been
terminated  and  $19,585,000  of the  termination  costs  have  been  paid.  The
restructuring plan is expected to be completed by the end of 1997.

The  Company's  financial  condition at June 30, 1997 is strong,  with a current
ratio of 3.02 to 1. The Company's ratio of long-term debt (less current portion)
to  stockholders'  equity was .18 to 1 at June 30, 1997 and .24 to 1 at December
31, 1996.

As discussed in Note 3 to the  financial  statements,  the Company  financed the
cash portion ($130 million) of the Lite-On acquisition from current availability
under the Company's credit facilities.

Management  believes  that  available  sources  of  credit,  together  with cash
expected to be generated  from  operations,  will be  sufficient  to satisfy the
Company's   anticipated   financing   needs  for  working  capital  and  capital
expenditures during the next twelve months.

Inflation

Normally,  inflation  does  not  have a  significant  impact  on  the  Company's
operations.   The  Company's  products  are  not  generally  sold  on  long-term
contracts. Consequently, selling prices, to the extent permitted by competition,
can be adjusted to reflect cost increases caused by inflation.

Safe Harbor Statement

From  time to time,  information  provided  by the  Company,  including  but not
limited to statements in this report,  or other  statements made by or on behalf
of the Company, may contain "forward-looking"  information within the meaning of
Section 27A of the  Securities  Act of 1933 and  Section  21E of the  Securities
Exchange  Act  of  1934.  Such   statements   involve  a  number  of  risks  and
uncertainties.  The Company's actual results could differ  materially from those
discussed in the forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements set forth
below  identify  important  factors  that could cause  actual  results to differ
materially from those in any forward-looking  statements made by or on behalf of
the Company.

     o    The Company  offers a broad  variety of products  and  services to its
          customers.  Changes  in demand  for,  or in the mix of,  products  and
          services  comprising  revenues could cause actual operating results to
          vary from those expected.

     o    The Company's future operating results are dependent,  in part, on its
          ability to develop, produce and market new and innovative products, to
          convert  existing  products to surface  mount devices and to customize
          certain  products to meet  customer  requirements.  There are numerous
          risks inherent in this complex process,  including rapid technological
          changes  and the need for the  Company  to timely  bring to market new
          products and applications to meet customers' changing needs.

     o    The  Company  operates  in a  highly  competitive  environment,  which
          includes   significant   competitive  pricing  pressures  and  intense
          competition for entry into new markets.

     o    A slowdown in demand for passive electronic components or recessionary
          trends in the global  economy in general or in specific  countries  or
          regions where the Company sells the bulk of its products,  such as the
          U.S.,  Germany,  France or the Pacific Rim, could adversely impact the
          Company's results of operations.

     o    Much of the orders in the  Company's  backlog  may be  canceled by its
          customers without penalty. Customers may on occasion double and triple
          order  components from multiple sources to insure timely delivery when
          backlog is particularly  long. The Company's results of operations may
          be adversely  impacted if customers were to cancel a material  portion
          of such orders.


                                      -12-

     o    Approximately   50%  of  the  Company's   revenues  are  derived  from
          operations and sales outside the United States. As a result,  currency
          exchange rate fluctuations,  inflation, changes in monetary policy and
          tariffs,  potential  changes  in laws and  regulations  affecting  the
          Company's  business in foreign  jurisdictions,  trade  restrictions or
          prohibitions,  intergovernmental  disputes,  increased labor costs and
          reduction or cancellation of government  grants, tax benefits or other
          incentives could impact the Company's results of operations.

     o    Specifically, as a result of the increased production by the Company's
          operations in Israel over the past several years, the low tax rates in
          Israel (as compared to the  statutory  rates in the U.S.) have had the
          effect of increasing  the Company's  net  earnings.  In addition,  the
          Company takes advantage of certain incentive programs in Israel in the
          form  of  grants  designed  to  increase  employment  in  Israel.  Any
          significant  increase  in  the  Israeli  tax  rates  or  reduction  or
          elimination of any of the Israeli grant programs could have an adverse
          impact on the Company's results of operations.

     o    The  Company may  experience  underutilization  of certain  plants and
          factories  in high labor cost  regions  and  capacity  constraints  in
          plants and  factories  located in low labor  cost  regions,  resulting
          initially in production  inefficiencies  and higher costs.  Such costs
          include those associated with work force reductions and plant closings
          in the higher labor cost regions and start-up expenses,  manufacturing
          and  construction   delays,   and  increased   depreciation  costs  in
          connection  with the start of production in new plants and  expansions
          in lower labor cost regions. Moreover,  capacity constraints may limit
          the  Company's  ability  to  continue  to meet  demand  for any of the
          Company's products.

     o    When the Company  restructures  its operations in response to changing
          economic  conditions,  particularly in Europe, labor unrest or strikes
          may occur, which could have an adverse effect on the Company.

     o    The Company's  results of operations may be adversely  impacted by (i)
          difficulties  in obtaining raw  materials,  supplies,  power,  natural
          resources  and  any  other  items  needed  for the  production  of the
          Company's  products;  (ii) the  effects of quality  deviations  in raw
          materials,   particularly  tantalum  powder,   palladium  and  ceramic
          dielectric  materials;  and (iii) the  effects  of  significant  price
          increases  for  tantalum  or  palladium,  or an  inability  to  obtain
          adequate  supplies of tantalum or palladium from the limited number of
          suppliers.

     o    The  Company's  historic  growth in  revenues  and net  earnings  have
          resulted  in  large  part  from  its   strategy   to  expand   through
          acquisitions.  However,  there is no  assurance  that the Company will
          find or consummate  transactions with suitable acquisition  candidates
          in the future.

     o    The  Company's  strategy  also  focuses on the  reduction  of selling,
          general  and  administrative   expenses  through  the  integration  or
          elimination of redundant sales offices and administrative functions at
          acquired  companies and  achievement  of significant  production  cost
          savings through the transfer and expansion of manufacturing operations
          to lower cost regions such as Israel,  Mexico,  Portugal and the Czech
          Republic.  The Company's inability to achieve any of these goals could
          have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

     o    The Company may be adversely  affected by the costs and other  effects
          associated  with (i) legal and  administrative  cases and  proceedings
          (whether  civil,  such  as  environmental  and   product-related,   or
          criminal);  (ii) settlements,  investigations,  claims, and changes in
          those  items;  (iii)  developments  or  assertions  by or against  the
          Company  relating to  intellectual  property  rights and  intellectual
          property licenses; and (iv) adoption of new, or changes in, accounting
          policies  and  practices  and the  application  of such  policies  and
          practices.

     o    The  Company's  results  of  operations  may also be  affected  by (i)
          changes  within  the  Company's  organization,   particularly  at  the
          executive  officer level,  or in compensation  and benefit plans;  and
          (ii) the  amount,  type and cost of the  financing  which the  Company
          maintains, and any changes to the financing.

     o    The inherent risk of  environmental  liability and  remediation  costs
          associated with the Company's  manufacturing  operations may result in
          large and unforseen liabilities.

     o    The Company's  operations may be adversely impacted by (i) the effects
          of war  or  severe  weather  or  other  acts  of God on the  Company's
          operations,  including disruptions at manufacturing  facilities;  (ii)
          the effects of a disruption  in the  Company's  computerized  ordering
          systems;  and (iii)  the  effects  of a  disruption  in the  Company's
          communications systems.

is Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.

         2. The Composite  Amended and Restated  Certificate of Incorporation of
