million, an increase from $76.7 million in the previous fiscal year. This sector
contributed 26 percent of Company total sales in both fiscal 1997 and fiscal
1996.
 
     The sector is a leading supplier of air-traffic control communication
systems. The sector is also a major supplier of custom aircraft and spaceborne
communication and information processing systems, a leading supplier of
terrestrial and satellite communication systems and a preeminent supplier of
super-high-frequency military satellite ground terminals for the Department of
Defense.
 
     The sector is a major supplier of custom ground-based systems and software
designed to collect, store, retrieve, process, analyze, display and distribute
information for government, defense and law enforcement applications, including
meteorological data processing systems and range management information systems.
The sector also provides computer controlled electronic maintenance, logistic,
simulation and test systems for military aircraft, ships and ground vehicles.
The sector's electronic products enable high speed communications for platforms
such as the USAF F-22 air superiority fighter and the Army's Commanche advanced
armed reconnaissance helicopter.
 
     The sector is a worldwide supplier of information-processing systems for
newspapers and publishing houses.
 
     The sector has recently formed two joint ventures with the General Electric
Company. One relates to an energy control and management system and distribution
automation system business for electric and other utilities; a second venture
relates to transportation and electronic systems for railways, OEM and freight
shipping customers worldwide.
 
     Most of the sales of this sector are made directly or indirectly to the
United States government under contracts or subcontracts containing standard
government contract clauses providing for redetermination of profits, if
applicable, and for termination for the convenience of the government or for
default of the contractor. These sales consist of a variety of contracts and
programs with various governmental agencies, with no single program accounting
for 10 percent or more of total Harris sales.
 
     The backlog of unfilled orders for this segment of Harris' business was
$470 million at July 25, 1997, a substantial portion of which is expected to be
filled during the 1998 fiscal year, compared with $592 million a year earlier.
 
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS
 
     Sales in fiscal 1997 of products exported from the United States or
manufactured abroad were $1,119 million or 29 percent of the Company's total
sales, compared with $1,206 million or 33 percent of the Company's total sales
in fiscal 1996 and $1,016 million or 30 percent in fiscal 1995. Exports from the
United States, principally to Europe and Asia, totalled $550 million or 49
percent of the international sales in fiscal 1997, $632 million or 52 percent of
the international sales in fiscal 1996 and $525 million or 52 percent in fiscal
1995 of the international sales.
 
     Foreign operations represented 15 percent of consolidated net sales and 20
percent of consolidated total assets as of the end of fiscal 1997. Electronic
products and systems are produced principally in the United States, and
international electronic revenues are derived primarily from exports. Copying
and facsimile products are produced primarily in Asia. Semiconductor assembly
and test facilities are located in Malaysia and Ireland; and communication
products assembly facilities are located in Canada and England.
 
     International marketing activities are conducted through subsidiaries which
operate in Canada, Europe, Central and South America, Asia and Australia.
Reference is made to Exhibit 21 "Subsidiaries of the Registrant" for further
information regarding foreign subsidiaries.
 
     Harris utilizes indirect sales channels, including dealers, distributors
and sales representatives, in the marketing and sale of some lines of products
and equipment, both domestically and internationally. These independent
representatives may buy for resale, or, in some cases, solicit orders from
commercial or governmental customers for direct sales by Harris. Prices to the
ultimate customer in many instances may be recommended or established by the
independent representative and may be on a basis which is above or below
 
                                        5
<PAGE>   8
 
the Company's list prices. Such independent representatives generally receive a
discount from the Company's list prices and may mark-up such prices in setting
the final sales prices paid by the customer. During the 1997 fiscal year, orders
came from a large number of foreign countries, no one of which accounted for
five percent of the Company's total orders.
 
     Certain of Harris' exports are paid for by letters of credit, with the
balance carried either on an open account or installment note basis. Advance
payments, progress payments or other similar payments received prior to or upon
shipment often cover most of the related costs incurred. Performance guarantees
by the Company are generally required on significant foreign government
contracts.
 
     The particular economic, social and political conditions for business
conducted outside the United States differ from those encountered by domestic
business. Management believes that the composite business risk for the
international business as a whole is somewhat greater than that faced by its
domestic operations as a whole. International business may subject the Company
to such risks as the laws and regulations of foreign governments relating to
investments, operations, currency exchange controls, revaluations, taxes, and
fluctuations of currencies; uncertainties as to local laws and enforcement of
contract and intellectual property rights; occasional requirements for onerous
contract clauses; and, in certain areas, rapid changes in governments and
economic and political policies, political or civil unrest or the threat of
international boycotts and United States anti-boycott legislation. Nevertheless,
in the opinion of management, these risks are offset by the diversification of
the international business and the protection provided by letters of credit and
advance payments.
 
     Except for inconsequential matters involving road and utility
rights-of-way, Harris has never been subjected to threat of government
expropriation, either within the United States or abroad.
 
     Financial information regarding the Company's domestic and international
operations is contained in the Note Business Segments in the Notes to Financial
Statements.
 
COMPETITION
 
     The Company operates in highly competitive businesses that are sensitive to
technological advances. Although successful product and systems development is
not necessarily dependent on substantial financial resources, some of Harris'
competitors in each of the sectors of its business are larger and can maintain
higher levels of expenditures for research and development than Harris. Harris
concentrates in each of its sectors on the market opportunities which management
believes are compatible with its resources, overall technological capabilities
and objectives. Principal competitive factors in these sectors are
cost-effectiveness, product quality and reliability, service and ability to meet
delivery schedules as well as, in international areas, the effectiveness of
dealers.
 
PRINCIPAL CUSTOMERS
 
     Sales to the U.S. government, which is the Company's only customer
accounting for 10 percent or more of total sales, were 23 percent, 26 percent,
and 30 percent of the Company's total sales in fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995
respectively. It is not expected that Defense Department budget cutbacks will
have a material effect on the profitability of the Company due in part to the
Company's continuing efforts to diversify and reduce its reliance on defense
contracts.
 
BACKLOG
 
     Harris' backlog of unfilled orders was approximately $1.1 billion at July
25, 1997 and $1.3 billion at July 26, 1996. Substantially all of the backlog
orders at July 25, 1997 are expected to be filled by June 30, 1998.
 
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING
 
     Research and engineering expenditures by Harris totaled approximately $680
million in fiscal 1997, $603 million in fiscal 1996 and $601 million in fiscal
1995. Company-sponsored research and product development costs were $175 million
in fiscal 1997, $160 million in fiscal 1996 and $134 million in fiscal 1995. The
balance was funded by government and commercial customers. Company-funded
research is directed to the development of new products and to building
technological capability in selected semiconductor,
 
                                        6
<PAGE>   9
 
communications and electronic systems areas. Government-funded research helps
strengthen and broaden the technical capabilities of Harris in its areas of
interest. Almost all of the operating divisions within the Company's sectors
maintain their own engineering and new product development departments, with
scientific assistance provided by advanced-technology departments.
 
PATENTS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
 
     Harris holds numerous patents which it considers, in the aggregate, to
constitute an important asset. However, the Company does not consider its
business or any sector to be materially dependent upon any single patent or any
group of related patents. The Company is engaged in a pro-active patent
licensing program, especially in the Semiconductor Sector, and has entered into
a number of unilateral license and cross-license agreements, many of which
generate substantial royalty income. Although existing license agreements have
generated income in past years and will do so in the future, there can be no
assurances the Company will enter into additional income producing license
agreements. Numerous trademarks used on or in connection with Harris products
are considered to be a valuable asset of Harris.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER REGULATIONS
 
     The manufacturing facilities of Harris, in common with those of industry
generally, are subject to numerous laws and regulations designed to protect the
environment, particularly in regard to wastes and emissions. Harris believes
that it has materially complied with these requirements, and such compliance has
not had a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition.
Expenditures to protect the environment and to comply with current environmental
laws and regulations over the next several years are not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's competitive or financial position. If future
laws and regulations contain more stringent requirements than presently
anticipated, expenditures may be higher than the Company's present estimates of
future expenditures.
 
     Waste treatment facilities and pollution control equipment have been
installed to satisfy legal requirements and to achieve the Company's waste
minimization and prevention goals. An estimated $.4 million was spent on
environmental capital projects in fiscal 1997 and $.3 million in fiscal 1996.
The Company currently forecasts authorization for environmental-related capital
projects totalling $3.3 million in fiscal 1998. Such amounts may increase in
future years.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
     As of June 27, 1997, Harris had approximately 29,000 employees. Harris
believes that its relations with its employees are good.
 
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.
 
     Harris operates approximately 37 plants and approximately 430 offices in
the United States, Canada, Europe, Central and South America, Asia and Australia
consisting of about 7.2 million square feet of manufacturing, administrative,
engineering and office facilities that are owned and about 3.9 million square
feet of sales, office and manufacturing facilities that are leased. The leased
facilities are occupied under leases for terms ranging from one year to 30
years, a majority of which can be terminated or renewed at no longer than
five-year intervals at Harris' option. The location of the principal
manufacturing plants owned by the Company in the United States and the sectors
which utilize such plants are as follows: Electronic Systems -- Malabar,
Melbourne and Palm Bay, Florida; Semiconductor -- Palm Bay, Florida; Findlay,
Ohio; and Mountaintop, Pennsylvania; Communications -- Camarillo, Novato and
Redwood Shores, California; Greensboro, North Carolina; San Antonio, Texas;
Quincy, Illinois; and Rochester, New York; and Lanier Worldwide -- Atlanta,
Georgia. The location of the principal manufacturing plants owned by the Company
outside of the United States, and the sectors which utilize such plants are as
follows: Semiconductor -- Dundalk, Ireland; and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and
Communications -- Calgary and Montreal, Canada, and Shenzhen Guangdong, China,
and Cambridge, U.K.
 
     Harris considers its facilities to be suitable and adequate for the
purposes for which they are used.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
     From time to time, as a normal incident of the nature and kind of business
in which the Company is engaged, various claims or charges are asserted and
litigation commenced against the Company arising from or related to product
liability; patents, trademarks, or trade secrets; breach of warranty; antitrust;
distribution; or contractual relations. Claimed amounts may be substantial but
may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claim or the
extent of any real risk of court awards. In the opinion of management, final
judgments, if any, which might be rendered against the Company in currently
existing litigation are reserved against or would not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition or the business of the Company as a whole.
 
     Government contractors, such as the Company, engaged in supplying goods and
services to the U.S. government are dependent on congressional appropriations
and administrative allotment of funds and may be affected by changes in U.S.
government policies. U.S. government contracts typically involve long lead times
for design and development and are subject to significant changes in contract
scheduling and may be unilaterally modified or cancelled by the government.
Often these contracts call for successful design and production of complex and
technologically advanced products or systems. The Company may participate in
supplying goods and services to the U.S. government as either a prime contractor
or a subcontractor to a prime contractor. Disputes may arise between the prime
contractor and the government and the prime contractor and its subcontractor and
may result in litigation between the contracting parties.
 
     From time to time, the Company, either individually or in conjunction with
other U.S. government contractors, may be the subject of U.S. government
investigations for alleged criminal or civil violations of procurement or other
federal laws. These investigations may be conducted without the Company's
knowledge. The Company is currently cooperating with certain government
representatives in investigations relating to potential violations of the
federal procurement laws. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of such
investigations or to estimate the amounts of resulting claims or other actions
that could be instituted against it, its officers or employees. Under present
government procurement regulations, if indicted or adjudged in violation of
procurement or other federal civil laws, a government contractor could be
suspended or debarred from eligibility for awards of new government contracts
for up to three years. In addition, a government contractor's foreign export
control licenses could be suspended or revoked. Management does not believe that
the outcome of these disputes or investigations will have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition or the business of the Company as a whole.
 
     In addition, the Company is subject to numerous federal and state
environmental laws and regulatory requirements and is involved from time to time
in investigations or litigation of various potential environmental issues
concerning ongoing activities at its facilities or remediation as a result of
past activities. The Company from time to time receives notices from the United
States Environmental Protection Agency and equivalent state environmental
agencies that it is a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (commonly
known as the "Superfund Act") and/or equivalent state legislation. Such notices
assert potential liability for cleanup costs at various sites,
 
                                        8
<PAGE>   11
 
most of which are non-Company owned treatment or disposal sites, allegedly
containing hazardous substances attributable to the Company from past
operations. The Company has been named as a PRP at 10 such sites, excluding
sites as to which the Company's records disclose no involvement or as to which
the Company's liability has been finally determined. In the opinion of
management, any payments the Company may be required to make as a result of
currently existing claims will not have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition or the business of the Company as a whole.
 
ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
 
     No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders of the Company
during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.

SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
   
     On March 28, 1997, in connection with the acquisition of all shares of
Quorum Group, Inc., a privately-held Minnesota corporation, the Company issued
an aggregate of 1,390,610 shares of its Common Stock to the eight shareholders
of Quorum Group, Inc. Based upon the closing price of the shares of Common Stock
on the NYSE, the 1,390,610 shares delivered at the closing of the acquisition
had a market value of approximately $54 million. The sale and issuance of the
securities in connection with the acquisition of Quorum Group, Inc. were deemed
to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities
Act") in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D
promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public
offering. The eight former shareholders of Quorum Group, Inc. receiving shares
of Common Stock of the Company each represented his or her intention to acquire
the shares for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection
with any distribution thereof, and appropriate legends were affixed to the
securities issued in such transaction. All recipients had adequate access
through their relationship to the Company to information about the Company.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS.
    
 
     The information in this review, along with the Business Segment data shown
on page 2, reflects the Company's continuing operations.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
FISCAL 1997 COMPARED WITH 1996 -- Sales in fiscal 1997 increased 4.9 percent
while net income increased 16.3 percent.
 
     Communications segment sales increased 12.6 percent and net income
increased 7.9 percent. The segment benefited from strong sales and earnings
growth in its microwave systems business, as well as lower tax rates.
Significant gains from the sale of investment securities were substantially
offset by very poor performance in the segment's digital switch business. This
poor performance relates to high margin orders expected in fiscal 1997 which
were delayed until fiscal 1998. Improvement in the digital switch business
coupled with expected strong performance in the microwave systems and broadcast
products businesses should result in higher sales and earnings in fiscal 1998.
 
     Semiconductor segment sales were 4.0 percent lower than last year while net
income increased 10.7 percent. Lower earnings for the segment's discrete power
and digital products were offset by improved margins for intelligent power
products and significantly increased royalty income. Improving market conditions
for the industry and increased manufacturing capacity is expected to result in a
significant increase in fiscal 1998 sales, and higher earnings.
 
     Lanier Worldwide segment sales and net income increased 4.9 percent and
17.1 percent, respectively. Sales in European markets were adversely affected by
currency fluctuations, while both domestic and international margins increased
due to the favorable impact of sourcing yen-based products. This segment expects
both improved sales and earnings in fiscal 1998.
 
     Sales for the Electronic Systems segment were 4.5 percent higher than the
prior year due to growth in its information systems business. Net income for the
year increased 37.2 percent over last year due to higher margins for the
segment's core defense products and reduced losses in its energy management
business which was transferred to a joint venture in January of 1997. Earnings
in fiscal 1997 include a gain from the sale of a building which was
substantially offset by write-offs on certain long-term contracts. While the
segment continues to adjust to reduced appropriations in its core defense
business, fiscal 1998 sales are expected to be slightly higher than the prior
year with a moderate decrease in earnings.
 
     Cost of sales, rentals, and services as a percentage of sales decreased to
66.3 percent from 66.4 percent in the prior year. For the current year, cost
ratios were lower in the Semiconductor segment due to significantly increased
royalty income and the Lanier segment due to favorable currency exchange rates.
Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
increased from 25.2 percent in fiscal 1996 to 25.4 percent in the current year.
Lower administrative costs were offset by increased marketing expenses and
Company-sponsored research and development.
 
     Interest income and expense were slightly lower for the year as additional
interest on borrowed funds used for major new construction projects has been
capitalized as a component of plant and equipment under construction.
"Other-net" expense was $26.2 million lower in fiscal 1997 due to gains
resulting from the sale of investment securities and a gain on the sale of a
building.
 
     The provision for income taxes in fiscal 1997 was 33.5 percent of income
before income taxes compared to 35.0 percent in fiscal 1996. The reduction from
the statutory U.S. income tax rate of 35.0 percent in 1997 resulted from tax
benefits associated with foreign income and export sales.
 
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES -- Expenditures for land, buildings, and equipment totaled
$279 million in 1997, up from $225 million in the prior year. In addition,
during fiscal 1997, $71 million was invested in equipment for rental to
customers, up from $68 million invested in the prior year. Substantially all of
this investment in rental equipment is related to Lanier Worldwide products.
 
                                       15
<PAGE>   18
 
FISCAL 1996 COMPARED WITH 1995 -- Sales in fiscal 1996 increased 5.1 percent
while net income increased 15.5 percent.
 
     Communications segment sales increased 16.1 percent and net income
increased 30.7 percent. The segment's strong growth in sales and earnings
reflected strong demand in the segment's telecommunications and wireless
businesses, particularly microwave systems, broadcast products, and telephone
test equipment. International sales were higher than the previous year and
accounted for 49 percent of total segment sales in fiscal 1996.
 
     Semiconductor segment sales increased 7.4 percent despite an industry-wide
slowdown in new orders during the second half of the fiscal year. Strong sales
of the segment's power control products, improved margins on military products,
and increased royalty income contributed to the segment's 23.7 percent earnings
growth.
 
     Sales in the Lanier Worldwide segment increased 9.0 percent while net
income increased 24.2 percent. Sales and earnings were strong in both domestic
and international markets.
 
     Electronic Systems segment sales and net income decreased 7.8 and 19.3
percent, respectively. Segment results were impacted by write-offs on
development programs, whose production follow-on is unlikely, and significantly
lower sales and losses in the segment's energy management business.
 
     Cost of sales, rentals, and services as a percentage of sales decreased to
66.4 percent from 67.6 percent in the prior year. Continuing margin improvement
in the Semiconductor and Communications segments was offset in part by higher
costs in the Electronic Systems segment. Engineering, selling, and
administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 25.2 percent from
24.3 percent last year. Higher marketing expenses and a 19.4 percent increase in
Company-sponsored research and development expenditures contributed to higher
operating expenses.
 
     Interest income increased in 1996 due to an increase in the balance of
notes receivable from customers. Interest expense decreased due to lower
interest rates and an increase in the amount of interest capitalized.
"Other-net" expense was $7.7 million lower in fiscal 1996 due to gains from
foreign currency transactions.
 
     The provision for income taxes in fiscal 1996 and 1995 was 35.0 percent of
income before income taxes.
 
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES -- Expenditures for land, buildings, and equipment totaled
$225 million in fiscal 1996, up from $139 million in the prior year. In
addition, during fiscal 1996, $68 million was invested in equipment for rental
to customers, up from $65 million invested in the prior year. Substantially all
of this investment in rental equipment is related to Lanier Worldwide products.
 
FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
CASH POSITION -- At June 27, 1997, cash and cash equivalents totaled $71
million, a decrease from $75 million at June 30, 1996. Marketable securities
were $91 million at June 27, 1997.
 
RECEIVABLES, UNBILLED COSTS, AND INVENTORIES -- Notes and accounts receivable
amounted to $1,038 million at June 27, 1997, compared to $919 million a year
earlier. The increase in receivables reflects increased fourth quarter revenues
and a substantial increase in notes from customer leasing. Unbilled costs and
inventories decreased $6 million from the prior year to $936 million.
 
BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS -- The Company has available $800 million syndicated
credit facilities. Under these agreements $347 million was outstanding at June
27, 1997. The Company also has available $142 million in open bank credit lines,
of which $99 million was available at June 27, 1997. In addition, Harris filed a
Registration Statement effective May 1996 for $250 million of medium-term notes
and subsequently issued $100 million of 6.65% Notes due 2006. Additional amounts
under the Registration Statement may be offered to the public from time to time
on terms to be determined by market conditions.
 
CAPITALIZATION -- At June 27, 1997, debt totaled $983 million, representing 38.4
percent of total capitalization (defined as the sum of total debt plus
shareholders' equity). A year earlier, debt of $772 million was 36.0 percent of
total capitalization. Year-end long-term debt included $350 million of
debentures, $313 million of notes payable to banks and insurance companies, and
$24 million of other long-term debt.
 
                                       16
<PAGE>   19
 
   
     In 1997, the Company issued 692,302 shares of the Common Stock to employees
under the terms of the Company's stock purchase, option and incentive plans and
1,390,610 shares for the acquisition of Quorum Group, Inc.
    
 
     The Company expects to maintain operating ratios, fixed-charge coverages,
and balance-sheet ratios sufficient for retention of its present debt ratings.
 
RETIREMENT PLANS -- Retirement benefits for substantially all of the Company's
employees are provided primarily through a retirement plan having profit-sharing
and savings elements. The Company also has non-contributory defined benefit
pension plans and provides limited health-care benefits to retirees who have 10
or more years of service. All obligations under the Company's retirement plans
have been fully funded by the Company's contributions, the provision for which
totaled $80 million during the 1997 fiscal year.
 
DEFERRED INCOME TAXES -- The liability for non-current deferred income taxes was
$84 million at June 27, 1997, up from $62 million a year earlier.
 
IMPACT OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE -- Approximately 80 percent of the Company's
international business is transacted in local currency environments. The impact
of translating the assets and liabilities of these operations to U.S. dollars is
included as a component of Shareholders' Equity. At June 27, 1997 the cumulative
translation adjustment reduced Shareholders' Equity by $30 million compared to a
reduction of $16 million at June 30, 1996.
 
     The Company utilizes exchange rate agreements with customers and suppliers
and foreign currency hedging instruments to minimize the currency risks of
international transactions. Gains and losses resulting from currency rate
fluctuations did not have a material effect on the Company's results in 1997,
1996 or 1995.
 
IMPACT OF INFLATION -- To the extent feasible, the Company has consistently
followed the practice of adjusting its prices to reflect the impact of inflation
on wages and salaries for employees and the cost of purchased materials and
services.
 
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
 
     This report contains forward-looking statements that reflect management's
current assumptions and estimates of future performance and economic conditions.
Under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995, the Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results and future
trends to differ materially from those stated or implied by the forward-looking
statements.
 
     The Company's consolidated results and the forward-looking statements could
be affected by, among other things, general economic conditions in the markets
in which the Company operates; successful execution of management's internal
operating plans; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; worldwide
demand for integrated semiconductor circuits, particularly power products;
reductions in the U.S. and worldwide defense and space budgets, consolidations
within the defense industry and recovery of costs incurred on fixed price
contracts; termination of customer contracts; continued development and market
acceptance of new products, especially digital television broadcast products and
semiconductor wireless and multi-media products; continued success of the patent
licensing program; and the successful resolution of patent infringement and
other general litigation.
 
ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
     The Company uses foreign exchange contracts and options to hedge foreign
currency commitments. Specifically, these foreign exchange contracts offset
foreign currency denominated inventory and purchase commitments from Japanese
suppliers, intercompany loans, firm committed operating expenses in Malaysia and
Ireland, and accounts receivable from and future committed sales to customers.
Management believes the use of foreign currency financial instruments should
reduce the risks which arise from doing business in international markets. At
June 27, 1997, the Company had open foreign exchange contracts with a notional
amount of $259 million. The use of foreign exchange contracts did not have a
material effect on income or cash flows in fiscal 1997 and prior years and,
based on open contracts at June 27, 1997, the Company does not expect a material
effect on income or cash flows in fiscal 1998.
 
                                       17
<PAGE>   20
 
     The Company also maintains a portfolio of marketable equity securities
available for sale. These investments result from the funding of start-up
companies that have technology or products that are of interest to the Company.
The fair market value of these securities at June 27, 1997, was $91.3 million
with the corresponding unrealized gain included as a component of shareholders'
equity. These investments have historically had higher volatility than most
market indices. If the quoted market price of marketable equity securities was
to increase or decrease 10 percent, the fair market value of these securities
would correspondingly increase or decrease $9.1 million.
 
     The Company utilizes both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt as described in
the Notes to Financial Statements. The Company does not expect changes in
interest rates to have a material effect on income or cash flows in fiscal 1998.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To Harris Directors and Shareholders:
 
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Harris
Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 27, 1997 and June 30, 1996, and the
related consolidated statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows for
each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 27, 1997. Our audits
also include the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a).
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the
Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Harris
Corporation and subsidiaries at June 27, 1997 and June 30, 1996, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three fiscal years in the period ended June 27, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the
information set forth herein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION -- The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. These statements have been
prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and require
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been
eliminated.
 
FISCAL YEAR -- In 1997, the Corporation changed its fiscal year to end on the
Friday nearest June 30. Fiscal years prior to 1997 ended on June 30. Each of the
years presented consist of 52 weeks.
 
CASH EQUIVALENTS -- Cash equivalents are temporary cash investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased. These investments include
accrued interest and are carried at the lower of cost or market.
 
MARKETABLE SECURITIES -- Marketable equity securities are stated at fair value,
with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included as a separate component
of shareholders' equity. Realized gains and losses from marketable securities
are determined using the specific identification method. The cost basis of
marketable securities was $5.8 million at June 27, 1997, and $6.6 million at
June 30, 1996. The amount of gross realized gains included in operating profit
in 1997 was $24.6 million. Gross realized gains for 1996 and 1995 were not
material.
 
INVENTORIES -- Inventories are priced at the lower of cost (determined by
average and first-in, first-out methods) or market.
 
PLANT AND EQUIPMENT -- Plant and equipment are carried on the basis of cost.
Depreciation of buildings, machinery and equipment is computed by straight-line
and accelerated methods. The estimated useful lives of buildings range between 5
and 50 years. The estimated useful lives of machinery and equipment range
between 3 and 10 years. Depreciation of rental equipment is computed by the
straight-line method using estimated useful lives from 3 to 5 years.
 
INTANGIBLES -- Intangibles resulting from acquisitions are being amortized by
the straight-line method principally over periods between 15 and 40 years.
Recoverability of intangibles is assessed using estimated undiscounted cash
flows of related operations.
 
INCOME TAXES -- The Corporation follows the liability method of accounting for
income taxes.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION -- Revenue is recognized from sales other than on long-term
contracts when a product is shipped, from rentals as they accrue, and from
services when performed. Revenue on long-term contracts is accounted for
principally by the percentage-of-completion method, whereby income is recognized
based on the estimated stage of completion of individual contracts. Unearned
income on service contracts is amortized by the straight-line method over the
term of the contracts. Royalty income is included as a component of cost of
product sales and rental and is recognized on the basis of terms specified in
contractual settlement agreements.
 
RETIREMENT BENEFITS -- The Corporation and its subsidiaries provide retirement
benefits to substantially all employees primarily through a retirement plan
having profit-sharing and savings elements. Contributions by the Corporation to
the retirement plan are based on profits and employees' savings with no other
funding requirements. The Corporation may make additional contributions to the
fund at its discretion. The Corporation also has non-contributory defined
benefit pension plans which are fully funded.
  Retirement benefits also include an unfunded limited healthcare plan for U.S.
based retirees and employees on long-term disability. The Corporation accrues
the estimated cost of these medical benefits, which are not material, during an
employee's active service life.
 
FUTURES AND FORWARD CONTRACTS -- Gains and losses on foreign currency exchange
and option contracts that qualify as hedges are deferred and recognized as an
adjustment of the carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability or
identifiable foreign currency firm commitment. Gains and losses on foreign
currency exchange and option contracts that do not qualify as hedges are
recognized in income based on the fair market value of the contract.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The functional currency for most international
subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at
current rates of exchange, and income and expense items are translated at the
weighted average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation
adjustments are recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
 
UNEARNED COMPENSATION -- Compensation resulting from performance shares granted
under the Corporation's long-term incentive plan is amortized to expense over
the vesting period of the performance shares and is adjusted for changes in the
market value of the Common Stock.
 
NET INCOME PER SHARE -- Net income per share is based upon the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during each year.
 
   
STOCK SPLIT -- On August 23, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized a
two-for-one stock split to be distributed on or around September 26, 1997, to
shareholders of record on September 4, 1997. All references in the financial
statements and notes to financial statements to number of shares, per share
amounts, and market prices of the Corporation's Common Stock have been restated
to reflect the increased number of shares outstanding.
    
 
ACCOUNTING CHANGE
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earn-
 
                                       28
 

<PAGE>   31
 
ings per Share." This statement establishes standards for computing and
presenting earnings per share and is effective beginning in the third quarter of
fiscal 1998. It is expected that implementation will not result in a material
difference from earnings per share as currently reported.

INTANGIBLES
Accumulated amortization of intangible assets was $60.8 million at June 27,
1997, and $52.3 million at June 30, 1996.
 
CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS
The Corporation maintains syndicated credit facilities with various banks which
provide for borrowings up to $800 million. These facilities consist of a 364-day
$300 million facility which expires November 1997 and a five-year $500 million
facility which expires November 2001. Interest rates on borrowings under these
facilities are determined by a pricing matrix based upon the Corporation's
long-term debt rating assigned by Standard and Poor's Ratings Group and Moody's
Investors Service. A facility fee is payable on the credit and determined in the
same manner as the interest rates. The Corporation is not required to maintain
compensating balances in connection with these agreements. Under these
agreements, $346.7 million was outstanding at June 27, 1997, $100 million of
which has been classified as long-term based on the Corporation's intent to
maintain borrowings of at least that amount for the next year.
  The Corporation also has lines of credit for short-term financing aggregating
$141.5 million from various U.S. and foreign banks, of which $99 million was
available on June 27, 1997. These arrangements provide for borrowing at various
interest rates, are reviewed annually for renewal, and may be used on such terms
as the Corporation and the banks mutually agree. These lines do not require
compensating balances.
  Short-term debt is summarized below:

PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS
   
On December 6, 1996, the Corporation declared a dividend of one preferred share
purchase right for each outstanding share of Common Stock. These rights, which
expire on December 6, 2006, are evidenced by Common Stock share certificates,
trade with the Common Stock until they become exercisable and giving effect to
the stock split described above, entitle the holder to purchase one
two-hundredth of a share of Participating Preferred Stock for $125, subject to
adjustment. The rights are not exercisable until the earlier of 10 business days
(or such later date fixed by the Board) after a party commences a tender or
exchange offer to acquire a beneficial interest of at least 15% of the
Corporation's outstanding Common Stock, or the first date of public announcement
by the Corporation that a person has acquired a beneficial interest of at least
15% of the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock or such later date fixed by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
    
    Upon the first date of public announcement by the Corporation that a person
has acquired a beneficial interest of at least 15% of the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock, or such later date fixed by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation, each right (other than rights beneficially owned by an
acquiring person or any affiliate or associate thereof) would entitle the holder
to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Corporation having a market value
equal to twice the exercise price of the right. In addition, each right (other
than rights beneficially owned by an acquiring person or any affiliate or
associate thereof) would entitle the rightholder to exercise the right and
receive shares of common stock of the acquiring company, upon a merger or other
business combination, having a market value of twice the exercise price of the
right.
    Under certain circumstances after the rights become exercisable, the Board
of Directors may elect to exchange all of the then outstanding rights for shares
of Common Stock at an exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per right,
subject to adjustment. The rights have no voting privileges and may be redeemed
by the Board of Directors at a price of $.01 per right at any time prior to the
acquisition of
 
                                       30
 

<PAGE>   33
 
a beneficial ownership of 15% of the outstanding Common
Stock.
 
NON-CASH DIVIDEND
In 1995, the Corporation spun off as a tax-free dividend its computer systems
business by distributing one share of Harris Computer Systems Corporation common
stock for every twenty shares of the Corporation's Common Stock. Cash dividends
shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows include the $8.4 million cash
balance of the Harris Computer System Corporation at the time of the spin-off;
the remainder of the dividend was a non-cash transaction.
 
STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS
The following information relates to stock option and incentive stock awards.
Option prices are 100 percent of market value on the date the options are
granted. Option grants are for a maximum of ten years after dates of grant and
may be exercised in installments.

  Pro forma information regarding net income and net income per share is
required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" and has been determined as if the Corporation had
accounted for stock options using the fair value method of that statement. The
fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions used for grants in 1997 and 1996, respectively: risk-free interest
rates of 6.3% and 6.4%, expected dividend yields of 2.1% in each year, expected
volatility of 22.4% and 20.8%, and expected lives of 4 years each.
  For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of options is
amortized to expense over their 3 year vesting period. Under the fair value
method, the Corporation's net income and net income per share would have been
reduced as follows:

  Because the fair value method of accounting for options applies only to
options granted subsequent to June 30, 1995, the pro forma effect will not be
fully reflected until 1999.
   
  The Corporation has a stock incentive plan for directors and key employees.
Awards under this plan may include the grant of performance shares, restricted
stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights or other stock-based awards. The
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be awarded under the plan
in each fiscal year is one percent of the total outstanding shares of Common
Stock plus shares available from prior years. Performance shares outstanding
were 827,110 at June 27, 1997; 1,005,222 at June 30, 1996, and 1,251,102 at June
30, 1995. Shares of Common Stock reserved for future awards under the plan were
2,380,516 at June 27, 1997; 2,297,636 at June 30, 1996, and 2,093,434 at June
30, 1995.
    
   
  Under the Corporation's domestic retirement plan, employees may purchase a
limited amount of the Corporation's Common Stock at 70 percent of current market
value. Shares of Common Stock reserved for future purchases by the retirement
plan were 2,365,010 at June 27, 1997.

  United States income taxes have not been provided on $511.4 million of
undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries because of the
Corporation's intention to reinvest these earnings. The determination of
unrecognized deferred U.S. tax liability for the undistributed earnings of
international subsidiaries is not practicable.
  Pretax income of international subsidiaries was $76.4 million in 1997, $74.2
million in 1996, and $63.2 million in 1995.
  Income taxes paid were $75.1 million in 1997, $95.6 million in 1996, and $79.2
million in 1995.
 
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The Corporation is structured primarily around the markets it serves and
operates in four business segments: Communications, Semiconductor, Lanier
Worldwide, and Electronic Systems. The Communications segment produces
broadcast, radio communications, and telecommunications products and systems.
The Semiconductor segment produces advanced analog, digital, and mixed signal
integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for power, signal processing,
data-acquisition, and logic applications. Lanier Worldwide sells and services
copying and facsimile products, and PC-based healthcare management systems. The
Electronic Systems segment engages in advanced research and develops, designs,
and produces advanced communication and information processing systems.
  Communication and electronic products and systems are produced principally in
the United States with international revenues derived primarily from exports.
Copying and facsimile products are produced principally in Asia with
international revenues derived from the Corporation's international
subsidiaries.
  Net sales and operating profit by segment are on page 2. That information is
an integral part of these financial statements.
  Sales made to the U.S. government by all segments (primarily Electronic
Systems segment) were 22.7 percent of total sales in 1997, 25.7 percent of total
sales in 1996, and 30.4 percent of total sales in 1995. Intersegment sales,
which are insignificant, are accounted for at prices comparable to unaffiliated
customers.

  Capital expenditures and depreciation do not include equipment for rental to
customers. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, marketable securities,
deferred income taxes and plant and equipment.
  Export sales approximated $550.0 million in 1997, $631.6 million in 1996, and
$524.6 million in 1995. Export sales and net sales of international operations
were principally to Europe and Asia.
 
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts
receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximates
fair value. The fair value of long-term debt was $701.0 million at June 27, 1997
and $618.6 million at June 30, 1996.
  The Corporation uses foreign exchange contracts and options to hedge
intercompany accounts and off-balance-sheet foreign currency commitments.
Specifically, these foreign exchange contracts offset foreign currency
denominated inventory and purchase commitments from suppliers, accounts
receivable from and future committed sales to customers, and firm committed
operating expenses. Management believes the use of foreign currency financial
instruments should reduce the risks which arise from doing business in
international markets. Contracts are for periods consistent with the terms of
the underlying transaction, generally one year or less. At June 27, 1997, open
foreign exchange contracts were $259.3 million (as described below), of which
$166.1 million were to hedge off-balance-sheet commitments. Additionally, for
the year ended June 27, 1997, the Corporation purchased and sold $1,069.2
million of foreign exchange forward and option contracts.
  Deferred gains and losses are included on a net basis in the Consolidated
Balance Sheet as other assets and are recorded in income as part of the
underlying transaction when it is recognized.
 
  At June 27, 1997, the Corporation had $7.8 million in open option contracts.
Total open foreign exchange contracts at June 27, 1997, are described in the
table below.
