AEROSONIC CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
October 31, 1997
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
reporting 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 three month period ended October 31, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended January 31, 1998. 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, 1997.
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.
Net sales for the three and nine months ended October 31, 1996 were $0 and
$958,000 respectively.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year
presentation of discontinued operations.
NOTE C - ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
- ------------------------------
As reported in the 10-Q for quarter ended July 31, 1997, in accordance with a
consent agreement signed by the Company in 1993, the Company's environmental
consultant has developed an interim remedial action plan to contain and
remediate certain contamination on and underlying the Company's property. This
plan has been submitted to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP) and is currently under review and discussion. Before approval of the
plan, the FDEP may require further assessment and testing. Company management
still believes that any additional liability in excess of amounts accrued at
October 31, 1997 will not have a material affect on the financial condition of
the company.

<PAGE>
NOTE D - FINALIZATION OF THE SENSONICS SETTLEMENT
- -------------------------------------------------
During the nine months ended October 31, 1996, the Company finalized the
settlement of the lawsuit with Sensonics, Inc. and recorded a $225,000 charge
against related earnings. The details of the lawsuit and related settlement are
reflected in the 10-K report, dated January 31, 1997.
NOTE E - LONG TERM DEBT
- -----------------------
During the third quarter ended October 31, 1997, the Company converted the
funded balance on the line of credit to long term debt. Along with the
restructuring, the company negotiated a reduced interest rate. Collateral for
the new term loan remains the same as it was under the prior arrangement.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT
OF OPERATIONS
Company wide net sales for the three months ended October 31, 1997 were
$4,240,000 as compared to $5,066,000 for the same period in the preceding year.
This represents a $826,000 or 16% decrease in the third quarter compared to the
same period last year. The decline in sales is due to Company Management's
decision to reduce sales of unprofitable product lines combined with a temporary
delay in certain new contracts as well as a restructuring of the Company's
distribution network. Also, the affect of the acquisition of McDonnell Douglas
by Boeing and the associated consolidation had a small impact on revenues. Net
sales for the nine months ended October 31, 1997 decreased by 2% to $14,460,000
as compared to $14,820,000 for the same period last year.
Net sales for the Clearwater and Kansas Instrument Divisions for the quarter
ended October 31, 1997 totaled $2,325,000, which represents a $252,000 or 10%
decrease from the same period in the prior year. The Avionics Specialties
Division sales for the quarter ended October 31, 1997 were $1,915,000, a
$574,000 or 23% decrease over the same period in the prior fiscal year.
Discontinued Ordnance Division sales totaled $945,000 for the nine months ended
October 31, 1996.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales improved in both the third quarter and
the nine months ended October 31, 1997 as compared to their respective periods
in the prior fiscal year. The improvement is largely attributed to Company
Management's continued focus of its sales efforts toward its most highly
profitable product lines. Company Management continues its strategy of pursuing
long term agreements with its major customers and continues to focus on the
worldwide market to enhance revenues and profitability, while de-emphasizing,
and in some areas, discontinuing sales of lower margin products.
Interest expense totaled $47,000 for the three months ended October 31, 1997
versus $74,000 during the same period in the preceding year. The decrease is due
primarily to the reduction in borrowings, and a renegotiation of interest rates
on its existing credit facilities.
Other income for the quarter ended October 31, 1997 includes a $138,000 gain on
the sale of the stock of a publicly-traded health insurance company. The stock
was received as remuneration for premiums paid related to a specific health care
plan.
For the third quarter ended October 31, 1997 the Company recorded net after tax
profit of $228,000, or $.06 per share. Through the nine months ended October 31,
1997, the company recorded a net after tax profit of $712,000, or $.18 per
share.
Working capital increased by $2,629,000 during the nine months ended October 31,
1997 and the Company's current ratio approximated 6.53:1, an increase from the
last reporting period.
7
<PAGE>
The largest component of the increase is related to the restructuring of the
balance on the Company's line of credit to long-term debt. Significant sources
of cash during the first nine months consisted of funds generated from
operations and borrowings under the Company's line of credit arrangement. Net
cash provided by operations approximated $302,000 as compared to cash used of
$1,005,000 for the same period in the preceding year. In addition, stock options
granted under the Company's Incentive Stock Option Plan were exercised during
the first nine months of Fiscal 1998 generating cash of approximately $173,000.
Significant uses of cash included a net decrease in other current assets and
liabilities, the purchase of property and equipment and repayment of long term
debt and notes payable, related.
In October 1997, the company negotiated a reduced interest rate and restructured
debt funded under the revolving line of credit arrangement, converting the
balance of $1,450,000 on the line of credit to long-term debt and establishing a
new line of credit with availability of $1,500,000, all of which was available
as of the third quarter ended October 31, 1997. Company management anticipates
that the availability under the line of credit combined with cash flow from
operations will be sufficient to fund future growth.
