NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
OCTOBER 31, 1996
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended October 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended January 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 1996.
NOTE B - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------
On July 10, 1996, the Company finalized the sale of the assets of the Ordnance
Division for $1,700,000 in cash, the proceeds of which were partially used to
pay down long-term debt, with the balance being invested in marketable
securities. For the second quarter, the Company recorded a $41,000 gain on the
sale of the Ordnance Division assets.
Net sales of the Ordnance Division for the nine months ended October 31, 1996
and 1995 were $945,000 and $1,179,000, respectively. Net sales of the Ordnance
Division for the quarter ended October 31, 1995 were $228,000.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year
presentation of discontinued operations.
NOTE C - FINALIZATION OF THE SENSONICS SETTLEMENT
- -------------------------------------------------
During the first quarter ended April 30, 1996, the Company finalized the
settlement of the lawsuit with Sensonics, Inc., the details of which are
reflected in the 10-Q report, dated April 30, 1996. Reflected in the
year-to-date earnings figure is a $225,000 charge against first quarter earnings
to finalize the settlement.
NOTE D - SETTLEMENT WITH LEGAL COUNSEL
- --------------------------------------
During the quarter ended October 31, 1996, the Company recognized $118,000 of
other income, which represents a settlement between the Company and prior legal
counsel. The related disputes have been amicably resolved without litigation and
no party admitting any liability or wrongdoing.

AEROSONIC CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF
OPERATIONS
Net sales of the Instrument Divisions for the three months ended October 31,
1996 ("fiscal 1997") were $5,066,000 as compared to $4,335,000 for the same
period in the prior year. Net sales of the Instrument Divisions for the nine
months ended October 31, 1996 increased 12%, to $14,820,000, as compared to
$13,184,000 for the same period in the prior year.
The Avionics Specialties Division sales for the quarter ended October 31, 1996
were $2,489,000, a 12% increase over the same period in the prior year. The
Clearwater Instrument Division sales for the quarter ended October 31, 1996
increased by 85%, to $2,577,000, over the same period in the prior year.
Ordnance sales were $945,000 for the nine months ended October 31, 1996, as
compared to $1,179,000 during the same period in the prior year. However, the
Ordnance Division had an overall negative impact on the profitability of the
Company, as the market slowed in that product line.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales improved in both the third quarter and
the nine months ended October 31, 1996 as compared to the respective periods in
the prior fiscal year. The improvement is largely attributed to Company
management's shift of focus away from Ordnance manufacturing and towards the
instrument product line, its core business line. As a result, Company management
has reengineered and streamlined the instrument manufacturing, cost accounting
and sales management processes. In addition, management is addressing
significant price increases on certain instrument lines which began in the
second quarter, as well as entering into long-term sales agreements with certain
customers.
The Company recorded a net profit for the third quarter of $211,000, or $.06 per
share. For the nine months ended October 31, 1996, the Company recorded a net
profit of $257,000, or $.07 per share, inclusive of the $41,000 gain on the sale
of the Ordnance Division, other income of $118,000 relating to the settlement
with legal counsel and the $225,000 charge against first quarter earnings for
the settlement of the Sensonics suit.
Working capital increased by $1,671,000 during the nine months ended October 31,
1996. Significant sources of cash during the year included proceeds from the
sale of the Ordnance Division, a refund relating to income taxes and proceeds
from utilization of the Company's line of credit. Significant uses of cash
included payment of Sensonics litigation costs and repayment of the Company's
debt facilities. At October 31, 1996, the Company had $750,000 available under
its line of credit.

AEROSONIC CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Interest expense totaled $238,000 ($209,000 allocated to the Instrument Division
and $29,000 allocated to the Ordnance Division) for the nine months ended
October 31, 1996. The $29,000 increase from the same period in the prior fiscal
year is largely due to heavier borrowings under the Company's line of credit
arrangement used to fund the settlement with Sensonics, Inc.
Backlog as of October 31, 1996 was $14,461,000, as compared to $14,774,000 in
the prior year. The prior year amount does not include backlog of $2,637,000
relating to the Ordnance division.
