NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
October 2, 1998
Note A -- Basis of Presentation
- -------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes
necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of
operations, and changes in cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. For further information refer to the financial statements
and notes to financial statements included in the Corporation's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 3, 1998.
Note B -- Accounting Changes
- ----------------------------
For the first quarter ended October 2, 1998, the Corporation adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income". This Statement requires reporting of changes in shareholders' equity
that do not result directly from transactions with shareholders. These changes
include the fair value adjustment to certain cost-based investments and foreign
currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive earnings for the quarters ended
October 2, 1998 and October 3, 1997 were $19.2 million and $55.8 million,
respectively. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform
to the requirements of FAS No. 130.
The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of related tax, at
October 2, 1998 and July 3, 1998 are as follows:

</TABLE>
The Corporation also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", as
of the first quarter ended October 2, 1998. This statement establishes new rules
for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires selected information about operating segments in interim
financial statements. The Corporation was substantially in compliance with the
provisions of the new statement and, therefore, will not be required to restate
prior year business segment data.
Net sales, operating profit and net income by segment are on page 7. That
information is an integral part of these financial statements. Intersegment
revenues are not material and there is no material change in segment total
assets from prior fiscal year-end amounts.

Note E -- Financial Instruments
- -------------------------------
The Company uses foreign exchange contracts to hedge off-balance sheet foreign
currency commitments and anticipated transactions. The Company has significant
manufacturing operations in Malaysia and has a hedging program in place to set
the exchange rates on the Company's foreign currency operating commitments in
Malaysia. Under this hedging program, increases or decreases in the Company's
local currency manufacturing costs and operating expenses are partially offset
by realized gains and losses, respectively, on the hedging instruments.
At October 2, 1998, the Company had foreign currency exchange contracts to buy
319.7 million Malaysian Ringgits for $99.6 million. The maturity period for
these contracts is 1 to 12 months. Deferred losses resulting from ringgit
contracts is $32.5 million.

</TABLE>
Sales in the Electronic Systems segment were 19 percent lower than last year's
first quarter, while segment operating profit and net income increased 11
percent and 42 percent respectively. Lower sales resulted from reduced demand in
all segment product lines. Segment earnings benefited from higher margin program
mix, income from joint ventures and higher interest income.
Semiconductor segment sales were sharply lower for the quarter due to
industry-wide pricing pressure and weak demand. Continuing price pressures,
weak demand, and lower royalty income impacted operating profit and net income
which declined 17 percent and 15 percent, respectively. Lower operating
expenses resulting from prior year restructuring actions, ongoing cost
controls, and gains from the sale of investment securities helped to preserve
margins.
Sales in the Communications segment were 16 percent lower than last year's
comparable quarter due to weakness in the international economy, reduced demand
and dampened pricing for some of the segment's products. Segment operating
profit, which was adversely impacted by a $20.6 million provision related to a
patent litigation judgement, declined significantly. Lower gains on the sale of
investment securities also contributed to a lower earnings.
Lanier Worldwide segment net sales increased 11 percent and was driven by the
successful first quarter acquisition and integration of the Agfa-Gevaert Group's
copying systems business. The acquisition doubles Lanier's market share in the
European office equipment market. Both domestic and international net income
increased due to improved operating profit margin in its domestic business and
higher international sales.
(7)
<PAGE> 8
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 68.4 percent in the first quarter
compared to 66.9 percent for the comparable prior year period. The increase in
the cost ratio was primarily due to a declining gross margin in the
Semiconductor segment. Declining unit volumes, continuing price pressures, the
continuing decline in royalties and losses in the logic business that the
segment is exiting under previously announced restructuring actions all
contributed to the lower gross margin.
Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
decreased to 24.9 percent in the first quarter from 25.6 percent in last year's
first quarter. The decrease in the operating expense ratio was due to lower
administrative expenses resulting from restructuring actions and lower expenses
associated with employee benefit plans.
Interest income was higher in the first quarter because of interest earned on
amounts due from the Internal Revenue Service. Interest expense also increased
in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, due to higher average borrowings and a
lower amount of capitalized interest compared to the prior year's first quarter.
Capitalized interest is included as a component of plant and equipment on the
balance sheet. "Other-net" expense was lower due primarily to gains on foreign
currency and higher earnings from joint ventures.
The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax income was 34.0 percent
in both the first quarter and prior year comparable period. The statutory
federal income tax rate for both periods was 35.0 percent. Both periods
benefited from tax rates on foreign source income and export sales.
Net income as a percentage of sales was 3.2 percent for the first quarter of
fiscal 1999, and 4.5 percent for last year's first quarter for the previously
stated reasons.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL POSITION
Working capital decreased from $837.9 million at July 3, 1998, to $648.4
million at the end of the first quarter largely due to cash and short-term debt
used to fund Lanier Worldwide's acquisition of the Agfa-Gevaert copying systems
business. Capital expenditures are down substantially from last year's first
quarter due to completion of several semiconductor related projects. Total
capital expenditures for the Corporation in fiscal 1999, including expenditures
for customer rental equipment, are expected to be approximately $220 million.
On October 28, 1998, the Corporation filed a $500 million "shelf" debt
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. After
this statement becomes effective, debt securities may be issued from time to
time under a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about
the terms of an offering. Proceeds from the sale of debt securities will be
used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of existing
indebtedness and additions to working capital. In November 1998, the Company's
364-day $300 million credit facility expires and it is the Company's intention
not to replace this facility due to sufficient other borrowing capacity. The
requirement for funds to finance capital expenditures, acquisitions of new
businesses and other operational requirements during fiscal 1999 will be met by
cash flow from operations, potential sales of debt securities and other
available borrowing capacity.
YEAR 2000 ISSUE
For the fiscal year-end July 3, 1998, the Company discussed in its Annual Report
on Form 10-K programs underway to address the Year 2000 issue. At October 2,
1998, the Company had completed over 100 of its remediation programs and was
actively working on more than an additional 250 programs. The focus of these
in-process programs is to replace or modify time-sensitive software systems and
equipment. The Company has provided Year 2000 internet web pages to communicate
general and product specific issues and has initiated formal programs with
customers to resolve certain Year 2000 problems. However, the Company believes
it has no material exposure to contingencies related to the Year 2000 issue for
the products it has sold.
(8)
<PAGE> 9
The Company has Year 2000 exposure in its operating systems and business
systems; including engineering, manufacturing, order fulfillment, program
management, financial and administrative functions. It is the Company's belief
that the greatest potential risk from the Year 2000 issue could be its inability
to meet commitment dates on delivery of product and has focused the majority of
the Company's effort and dedicated resources to address this issue. In addition,
the Company believes that a limited number of the non-information technology
systems, such as manufacturing machinery, equipment and test equipment with date
sensitive software and embedded microprocessors may be affected, and evaluation
and remediation are underway.
The Company believes it is diligently addressing the Year 2000 issues and that
it will satisfactorily resolve significant Year 2000 problems. The Company
anticipates completing most of its Year 2000 projects during fiscal 1999, with
major completion milestones being targeted for the second and fourth quarters of
fiscal 1999. In the event the Company falls short of these milestones,
additional internal resources will be focused on completing these projects or
developing contingency plans. The estimated cost for resolving Year 2000 issues
is approximately $46 million with approximately $26 million planned for fiscal
1999. These costs are generally not incremental to existing information
technology budgets. Rather, internal resources were re-deployed and timetables
for implementation of replacement systems were accelerated. The largest portion
of this expenditure is being used to replace existing software and hardware.
Estimates of Year 2000 related costs are based on numerous assumptions and there
is no certainty that estimates will be achieved and actual costs could be
materially greater than anticipated. Specific factors that might cause such
difference include, but are not limited to, the continuing availability of
personnel trained in this area, the ability to timely identify and correct all
relevant computer programs, and similar uncertainties.
EURO CONVERSION
On January 1, 1999, certain members of the European Economic and Monetary Union
will adopt a common currency, the Euro. The adoption of the Euro will affect a
multitude of financial and business applications within the Company. Programs to
address changes needed to comply with all laws and regulations are underway and
are expected to be completed or substantially completed by January 1, 1999;
however, there can be no certainty that such plans will be successfully
implemented or that external factors will not have an adverse effect on the
Company's operations. Costs associated with these programs are expensed as
incurred and are not expected to be material to results of operations, financial
condition or liquidity.
OUTLOOK
The Company believes that revenues will be relatively flat in the second quarter
and by the second half of the fiscal year will show increases over comparable
prior year periods. On September 23, 1998, the Company announced that fiscal
1999 earnings from operations are expected to be slightly below fiscal 1998
results before restructuring provisions. The ongoing semiconductor industry
downturn and general market weaknesses for communications products throughout
Asia, eastern Europe and South America continue to impact earnings from
operations.
The fiscal 1998 restructuring program is being vigorously implemented to reduce
costs and maintain profit margins. Restructuring actions and other ongoing cost
controls will help balance near-term results and long-term positioning to retain
and grow market share in all business segments.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains, and certain of the Company's other public documents and
statements contain and will contain, forward-looking statements that reflect
management's current assumptions and estimates of future performance and
economic conditions. Such statements are made pursuant to 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 projected, stated, or implied by the forward-looking
statements.
The Company's consolidated results and the forward-looking statements could be

price contracts; termination of customer contracts; continued development and
market acceptance of new products, especially digital television broadcast
products and semiconductor wireless products; continued success of the
Company's patent licensing programs, particularly as it relates to the
Semiconductor and Communications segments; and the successful resolution of
general litigation. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update
or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events, or otherwise.
