                     WASHINGTON SCIENTIFIC INDUSTRIES, INC.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.       CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

                  The consolidated balance sheet as of February 25, 1996, the
         consolidated statements of operations for the thirteen weeks ended
         February 25, 1996 and February 26, 1995 and the twenty six weeks ended
         February 25, 1996 and February 26, 1995 and the consolidated statements
         of cash flows for the twenty-six weeks then ended, respectively, have
         been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of
         management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring
         adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
         results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have
         been made.

                  The balance sheet at August 27, 1995, is derived from the
         audited balance sheet as of that date. Certain information and footnote
         disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
         condensed or omitted. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial
         statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
         and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 1995 annual report
         to shareholders. The results of operations for interim periods are not
         necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

2.       SALE OF REAL ESTATE:

                  On January 4, 1995 the Company sold its Owatonna, Minnesota
         real estate to OTC, a division of SPX Corporation, for a total cash
         consideration of $1,534,000.

3.       PENSION CURTAILMENT:

                  A pension curtailment gain was recorded in the first quarter
         of fiscal 1995. As part of the Owatonna plant closing, all of the
         Owatonna employees who were members of the non-union pension plan were
         either terminated or transferred to the Long Lake facility. As a
         result, during the first quarter of fiscal 1995, a curtailment of the
         non-union employee plan occurred as defined in SFAS No. 88, Employers
         Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension
         Plans and Termination Benefits.

4.       DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT:

                  On March 31, 1995, the Company amended its line of credit
         agreement and refinanced its term debt. The Agreement, which combines
         the line of credit and term debt, will expire on March 31, 1998 and is
         with the same bank with which the Company previously had its line of
         credit.



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

Results of Operations:

                  Net sales of $5,176,000 for the quarter ending February 25,
         1996 decreased $2,120,000 or 29.1% from the same quarter of the prior
         year. Sales reductions occurred in the following markets: computer,
         $1,416,000, fire arms, $608,000, marine, $570,000, general industrial,
         $565,000 and automotive, $109,000. Sales to the agricultural, and small
         engine markets increased $1,114,000 and $34,000, respectively .

                  Net sales for the 26 weeks ended February 25 ,1996 decreased
         $4,598,000 or 30.4% from the first half of fiscal 1995. Sales
         reductions occurred in the following markets: computer, $3,324,000,
         marine, $1,053,000 fire arms, $971,000, general industrial, $747,000
         and automotive, $523,000. Sales to the agricultural and small engine
         markets increased $1,860,000 and $160,000, respectively.

                  Reductions in sales in the second fiscal quarter and fiscal
         half year resulted primarily from completed and discontinued
         manufacturing programs.

                  The Company recently began production on four new multi-year
         manufacturing programs, however, it is not expected that sales from
         these programs will have a material impact on fiscal 1996 business.

                  Gross margin of 5.1% on parts sold in the quarter ended
         February 25, 1996 was down from 6.2% when compared to the same quarter
         of the prior year. Lower sales and a different sales mix caused the
         decline.

                  In the first half year of fiscal 1996 gross margin reached
         8.8% compared to 5.3% in the first half of fiscal 1995. Even though
         sales were lower in the first half of fiscal 1996, compared to the
         prior year, gross margins were higher primarily because the first half
         of fiscal 1995 included manufacturing overhead costs from two plant
         locations, during a portion of the half year, and start-up and training
         costs connected with the consolidation of two manufacturing plants.

                  Selling and administrative expense for the quarter and half
         year ended February 25, 1996 declined $67,000 and $96,000,
         respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year.
         Reductions in purchased services were primarily responsible for the
         lower expenses.

                  Interest and other income was $488,000 in the second quarter
         of fiscal 1996. This resulted primarily from the disposition of excess
         equipment related to completed and discontinued manufacturing programs
         and was $393,000 higher than the same quarter in the prior year.

                  First half interest and other income of $559,000 was heavily
         affected by the disposition of equipment in the second quarter. First
         half interest and other income in fiscal 1995 amounted to $139,000.

                  Interest and other expense was lower in the second quarter and
         first half of fiscal 1996 than in the comparable periods of the prior
         year by $20,000 and $46,000, respectively. These reductions were due to
         lower notes payable balances and lower interest rates.

                  In fiscal 1996 and 1995 the Company was able to recognize the
         benefit of a portion of its net operating loss carryforwards. Income
         taxes reported on the Consolidated Statement of Operations are for
         minimum state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

                  On February 25, 1996, both working capital and the ratio of
         current assets to current liabilities reported a slight decline when
         compared to comparable numbers on August 27, 1995. Working capital of
         $2,561,000 decreased $179,000 and the ratio of current assets to
         current liabilities declined to 1.81:1.0 from 1.83 to 1.0.

                  The Company did not have any credit line debt on February 25,
         1996. On that date the Company reported cash and cash equivalents of
         $1,947,000.

                  Company debt of $5,090,000 on February 25, 1996 was $601,000
         lower than Company debt on August 27, 1995. Term debt owed the bank on
         February 25, 1996 was $2,961,000 or $829,000 lower than the term debt
         balance on August 27, 1995. Capital lease debt increased $228,000 on
         February 25, 1996 compared to August 27, 1995.

                  Proceeds from the disposition of excess equipment related to
         completed and discontinued manufacturing programs amounted to $604,000
         in the fiscal quarter ended February 25, 1996. Those proceeds and
         scheduled monthly debt payments of $37,500 were responsible for the
         reduction in the term debt balance.

                  It is management's belief that its internally generated funds
         combined with the line of credit will be sufficient to enable the
         Company to meet its financial requirements during fiscal 1996.
