        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)


Note 1 -          Basis of Presentation
                  ---------------------
                  The information at September 30, 1996, and for the three-month
                  periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, is unaudited, but
                  includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
                  adjustments) which the management of California Microwave,
                  Inc. believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the
                  results for the periods presented. Interim results are not
                  necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The
                  condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be
                  read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
                  statements for the year ended June 30, 1996 included in the
                  California Microwave, Inc. 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders.

Note 2 -          Fiscal Periods
                  --------------
                  During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company changed
                  its fiscal periods to end on the last day of each calendar
                  quarter. Previously, each quarter ended on the Saturday
                  closest to the calendar month-end. The impact of this change
                  is not material to the condensed consolidated financial
                  statements.

Note 3 -          Reclassifications
                  -----------------
                  Certain fiscal year 1996 amounts have been reclassified to
                  conform to the fiscal year 1997 presentation.

Note 5 -          Unbilled Accounts Receivable
                  ----------------------------
                  Included in accounts receivable at June 30, 1996, and
                  September 30, 1996, was approximately $7.5 million of unbilled
                  receivables resulting from provisions contained in certain
                  export contracts.

                  The unbilled receivables at September 30, 1996, are expected
                  to be billed and collected within one year.

Note 6 -          Stockholders' Equity
                  --------------------
                  The change in capital in excess of par value for the three
                  months ended September 30, 1996, consists principally of
                  common stock issuances and tax benefit of options exercised.

Note 7-           Contingent Liabilities
                  ----------------------
                  On November 9, 1995, and December 12, 1995, two putative class
                  action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court
                  for the Northern District of California. The plaintiffs in 
                  these two cases, which have been consolidated



                                       -5-
<PAGE>   6
                  purport to represent a class of all persons who
                  purchased common stock of the Company between September 6,
                  1994 and June 29, 1995 ( the class period). Named as
                  defendants are the Company and certain of its present and
                  former executive officers. The complaints allege that
                  defendants violated various federal securities laws through
                  material misrepresentations and omissions during the class
                  period. Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaints,
                  which the court granted on April 19, 1996, with leave to
                  amend. Plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint and
                  in August 1996 defendants filed a motion to dismiss that
                  complaint. On November 1, 1996, the motion to dismiss was
                  denied. Although the ultimate outcome of these proceedings can
                  not be determined, the Company believes that it has
                  meritorious defenses to the claims alleged in these lawsuits
                  and intends to defend the actions vigorously.


                  The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims
                  that arise in the normal course of its business. The Company
                  believes these proceedings will not have a material adverse
                  effect on the financial position or results of operations of
                  the Company.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Statements made below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q that are not historical
facts, including any statements about expectations for fiscal year 1997 and
beyond, involve certain risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause the
Company's actual results to differ materially from management's projections,
estimates and expectations include, but are not limited to, delays in the
receipt of orders or in the shipment of products, delays in the integration of
operations of the Company's wireless businesses and other factors referred to
under "Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements" in the Company's Form
10-K Annual Report for its fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, and in the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements contained in
its 1996 Annual Report. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in
conjunction with this Managements' Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations.

The following table sets forth for the periods indicated (i) certain income and
expense items expressed as a percentage of the Company's total sales and (ii)
the percentage change of such items for the three months ended September 30,
1996, compared to the three months ended September 30, 1995. See Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations.

     Sales.  Sales were $103.7 million and $115.8 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a decrease of 10%.
Wireless products and intelligence systems sales increased 7% and 40%,
respectively, offsetting, in part, a 40% decrease in satellite communications
sales. The increase in intelligence systems sales reflects the continued growth
in the intelligence programs in which the Company participates. The rate of
growth of intelligence systems sales for the remainder of the year on a
comparative quarter basis is expected to be significantly lower than the 40%
experienced in the first quarter of 1997. The decrease in total sales was due
principally to orders being received too late to be shipped in the quarter,
continued delays by customers in completing the financing of certain large
satellite earth station projects, and the factors affecting international sales
discussed below.

     U.S. commercial sales and sales to the U.S. government increased 5% and
22%, respectively, while international sales decreased 30% in the first quarter.
The increase in sales to the U.S. Government is consistent with the increase in
intelligence systems sales. The decrease in international sales reflects the
decrease in sales to AT&T for its telecommunications project in Saudi Arabia and
other large projects as these projects were substantially completed in fiscal
1996 and the delays by customers in completing the financing of certain
satellite earth station projects discussed above. Products represented 62% of
total sales in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 65% in the first quarter of
1996, with the balance represented by system sales.

     Gross Margin.  Gross margin was $26.6 million and $34.8 million for the 
three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a
decrease of 24%. Gross margin as a percentage of total sales was 25.6% and 30.0%
for such periods, respectively. The decrease in gross margin in dollars and as a
percentage of sales was due primarily to lower sales as noted above which
resulted in lower overhead absorption, to competitive pricing pressures on
certain wireless and satellite product lines, and to the change in mix of
products to lower margin satellite and wireless products in the first quarter of
1997 as compared to the first quarter of 1996. Gross margin as a percentage of
sales is expected to be lower at least through the third quarter of fiscal 1997
compared to the 


                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9
comparable quarters of fiscal 1996 principally due to underabsorbed overhead at
Microwave Network Systems (MNS) and product mix and competitive pricing 
pressures for satellite and wireless products.

    Research and Development.  Research and development expenses were $7.9 
million and $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, representing an increase of 10%. Research and development expenses
as a percentage of total sales were 7.6% and 6.2% for such periods,
respectively. The Company continues to focus its research and development
efforts primarily on the development of new satellite networking products and
software and wireless products.

     Marketing and Administration.  Marketing and administration expenses were
$19.8 million and $18.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996
and 1995, respectively, representing an increase of 10%. Marketing and
administration expenses as a percentage of total sales were 19.0% and 15.6% for
such periods, respectively. In general, the dollar increases in marketing and
administration expenses relate to increased expenses associated with the
Company's efforts to penetrate the domestic Personal Communications Services
(PCS) and certain international markets.

    Amortization of Intangible Assets.  Amortization expenses associated with
intangible assets remained constant at $.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, and 1995.

    Interest Expense, Net.  Net interest expense was $1.4 million and $1.0 
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
representing an increase of 30%. The increase in net interest expense reflects
the need for the Company to borrow against its credit lines to fund operations
and capital expenditures.

    Provision for Income Taxes.  For the three months ended September 30, 1996,
the Company recognized a $1.1 million benefit from income taxes compared to a
$2.9 million provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30,
1995. The effective tax rate was 36% for each of these periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    At September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $131.2 million,
including $4.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared with working
capital of $141.3 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $4.6 million,
at June 30, 1996.

    During the first three months of fiscal 1997 cash and cash equivalents were
provided by operations (after adjusting the operating loss for depreciation and
amortization) and decreases in accounts receivable, and were used to fund an
increase in inventories and reductions of accounts payable and accrued income
taxes, and to pay year-end accrued liabilities, including payments under
incentive agreements and employee benefit plans and certain restructuring
payments. The net result was cash and cash equivalents used by operations of
$1.5 million. During the first three months of fiscal 1996, cash and cash
equivalents were provided by operating income (including depreciation and
amortization) and decreases in accounts receivable and inventories, and were
used for the reductions of accounts payable and payment of year-end accrued 
liabilities.  The net result was cash and cash equivalents provided by operating
activities of $ 0.8 million.



                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10
    The Company's investing activities during the first three months of fiscal
1997 included capital expenditures of $3.6 million. Total cash used for
investing activities was $3.7 million. Net cash used for investing activities
during the first three months of fiscal 1996 was $6.7 million, which included
$4.3 million of capital expenditures.

    During the first three months of fiscal 1997, cash and cash equivalents of
$4.8 million were provided by financing activities, including borrowings of $3.5
million under the Company's credit lines and sales of $1.3 million of common
stock to employees under on-going stock option and purchase plans. During the
first three months of fiscal 1996, the Company borrowed $3.8 million under its
credit lines and sold $1.8 million of common stock to its employees.

    The above activity resulted in a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents
of $.3 million for each of the first three months of fiscal 1997 and 1996.

    The Company has an unsecured $60.0 million committed bank credit facility,
which expires in September 1998. As of September 30, 1996, there were $14.0
million of borrowings and $5.8 million of standby letters of credit outstanding
under this credit facility. At September 30, 1996, the Company was not in
compliance with certain covenants required by its debt agreements. The lenders 
have waived such non-compliance. The waiver pertaining to the bank credit
facility is operative only until November 29, 1996, and the Company has agreed
to limit its utilization of the credit facility to $30.0 million prior to that
date. The Company is in negotiation with the bank to determine its credit
arrangement beyond November 29, 1996, and believes a satisfactory arrangement
will be made. However, since the arrangement has not been finalized, the
outstanding balance under the credit facility at September 30, 1996, of $14.0
million has been classified as a current facility.

    The Company believes that its current cash position, funds generated from
operations and funds it believes will be available from credit facilities will 
be adequate to meet the Company's requirements for working capital, capital
expenditures, debt service and external investments for the next 12 months.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

    In June 1995, the Company recorded restructuring charges of approximately
$20.9 million and other charges of approximately $15.5 million , for a total of
approximately $36.4 million in connection with a program to reduce costs and
improve operating efficiencies. Substantially all of the other charges were
reflected in costs of products sold. The program included, among other things:
the integration of certain of the Company's wireless operations and the exit by
California Microwave-TeleCom Transmission Systems, Inc. (TTS) from the
short-haul radio market, which included certain short-haul radio contracts and
the shifting of short-haul radio sales to California Microwave-Microwave Radio
Corporation (MRC); the recording of certain contract costs at California
Microwave-Satellite Transmission Systems (STS) Division; the elimination of
excess facilities; the reduction of employees at STS; the write-off of excess
inventory and capital equipment; and the write down of intangible assets. During
fiscal 1996, the program was expanded, without a net charge to operations, to
include merging the operations of TTS and Microwave Networks Incorporated (MNI)
with certain operations of MRC into a new unit, MNS, resulting in the write-off
of additional excess inventories and other assets and reducing the number of
employees at MNS.

</TABLE>


    During fiscal 1996, STS terminated approximately 75 employees in connection
with the restructuring and MNS terminated approximately 200 employees in
connection with the merging of operations of TTS and MNI with certain operations
of MRC. The cost of MNS's terminations of approximately $2.8 million was offset
by reduced amounts originally provided for excess facilities as these amounts
were determined not to be needed. Accordingly, there was no additional
restructuring charge in fiscal 1996, and the 1995 provision, as adjusted,
reflects this $2.8 million adjustments.

    Through September 30, 1996, assets written down and payments made totaled
approximately $30.9 million, leaving a reserve balance of $5.5 million which is
necessary for actions contemplated in fiscal 1997. The majority of remaining
future cash outlays are associated with payments for excess or unused facilities
which are expected to total approximately $2.5 million, substantially all of
which will be made during fiscal 1997.


OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    Bookings.  Orders booked were $105.1 million and $101.4 million for the 
three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, representing an
increase of 4%. Bookings for wireless products increased 24% to $49.9 million,
or 48% of total bookings. Satellite communications and intelligence systems
bookings decreased 5% and 18%, respectively.

    Backlog.  Backlog was $169.8 million and $217.2 million at September 30, 
1996 and 1995, respectively, representing a decrease of 22%. Substantially all
of the September 30, 1996 backlog is expected to be delivered within twelve
months.

                           Part II - Other Information


Item 1.       Legal Proceedings

              On November 9, 1995, and December 12, 1995, putative class action
              lawsuits entitled Rick Fairchild v. California Microwave, Inc. et
              al. and Mark E. McKinney v. California Microwave, Inc. et al. were
              filed in the United States District Court for the Northern
              District of California. The plaintiffs in these two cases, which
              have been consolidated, purport to represent a class of all
              persons who purchased common stock of California Microwave, Inc.
              (the "Company") between September 6, 1994 and June 29, 1995 (the
              "Class Period"). Named as defendants are the Company and certain
              of its present and former executive officers. The complaints
              allege that defendants violated various federal securities laws
              through material misrepresentations and omissions during the Class
              Period. Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaints, which
              the court granted on April 19, 1996 with leave to amend.
              Plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint and in August
              1996, defendants filed a motion to dismiss that complaint. On
              November 1, 1996, the motion to dismiss was denied. Although the
              ultimate outcome of these proceedings cannot be determined, the
              Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the claims
              alleged in these lawsuits and intends to defend the actions
              vigorously.
