NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 -    The accompanying financial information is unaudited but includes all
       adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which the
       Company considers necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
       period.  The operating results for the three and six months ended June
       30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be
       expected for the entire year.

2 -    Per share information is based on the weighted average common and common
       equivalent shares outstanding during each period.  All share and per
       share amounts have been retroactively restated for a two-for-one stock
       split effective June 6, 1995.  Shares used in the calculation of net
       income per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995
       were 9,538,000 and 9,467,000 shares, respectively.

3 -    On June 22, 1994 the Company acquired Daymarc Corporation, a
       privately-held manufacturer of gravity feed semiconductor test handling
       equipment that complements the pick and place test handling equipment
       manufactured by Delta Design.  The Company's consolidated financial
       statements include the results of Daymarc from June 22, 1994 forward.

       Assuming that the acquisition of Daymarc had occurred on the first day
       of the Company's year ended December 31, 1994, pro forma condensed
       consolidated results of operations for 1994 would be as follows:

  These results give effect to pro forma adjustments that include the

  of the Company's year ended December 31, 1994.

COHU, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

The Company's results are substantially dependent on the operations of the
semiconductor test handling equipment business conducted by its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Delta Design and Daymarc.  This capital equipment business is in
turn highly dependent on the overall strength of the semiconductor industry.
Worldwide demand for semiconductors has historically been subject to
substantial cyclical swings of varying duration and magnitude, and is currently
in a period of relative strength.  The Company's favorable results in recent
periods are in part reflective of this current strength in the semiconductor
industry.  The Company cannot predict how long the current period of relative
strength will continue.  The Company's backlog can be expected to decline
concurrently with or possibly in advance of the next period of relative
weakness in worldwide demand for semiconductors.  The Company attempts to keep
its production capacity, labor force and other aspects of its cost structure in
line with expected demand.

SECOND QUARTER 1995 COMPARED TO SECOND QUARTER 1994

Net sales increased 100% to $45,212,000 in 1995 compared to sales of
$22,612,000 in 1994.   Sales of semiconductor test handling equipment increased
142% in 1995 due to increased sales of pick and place handling equipment by
Delta Design and the addition of Daymarc's operating results for the entire
1995 period.  Sales of this equipment accounted for 82% of consolidated sales.
Sales of television cameras and equipment increased 14% while the combined
sales of metal detection and microwave equipment increased slightly in 1995.
Gross Margin as a percentage of sales increased to 40% for 1995 compared to 38%
for 1994, due to a larger percentage of total sales derived from test handling
equipment that has a higher gross margin than other products.  Research and
development expense increased from $1,715,000 to $2,690,000, however, as a
percentage of net sales, decreased to 6% in 1995 from 8% in 1994.  Selling,
general and administrative expense increased to 16% in 1995 from 15% in 1994
due to higher commissions and selling expenses on semiconductor test handling
equipment.  The provision for income taxes expressed as a percentage of pre-tax
income was 39% in 1995 and for the year ended December 31, 1994.  Net income
increased 127% to $4,940,000 in 1995 from $2,173,000 in 1994.

SIX MONTHS 1995 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS 1994

Net sales increased 93% to $77,394,000 in 1995 compared to sales of $40,130,000
in 1994.   The increase in sales was primarily attributable to increased
shipments of semiconductor test handling equipment at Delta Design and the
addition of Daymarc's operating results for the entire 1995 period.  Sales of
this equipment accounted for 79% of consolidated sales and increased 137% over
the  1994 period.  Sales of television cameras and equipment increased 19%,
while the combined sales of metal detection and microwave equipment increased
slightly in 1995.  Gross margin increased to 40% of sales in 1995 from 39% of
sales in 1994 due to a larger percentage of total sales derived from test
handling equipment that has a higher gross margin than other products.
Research and development expense increased from $3,249,000 to $4,925,000,
however, as a percentage of sales decreased to 6% in 1995 from 8% in 1994.
Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of sales remained
constant at 16%.  The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax
income was 39% in 1995 and for the year ended December 31, 1994.  Net income
increased 121% to $8,420,000 in 1995 from $3,804,000 in 1994.

LIQUIDITY - The Company's net cash flows generated from operating activities
totalled $10,589,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  Accounts
receivable increased $4,472,000 due to higher sales.  Inventory decreased
$997,000 as inventory turnover increased over prior periods.  Accounts payable
increased $5,390,000 mainly due to purchases related to inventory.  Net cash
used for investing activities was $381,000 primarily for the purchase of
equipment.  Net cash used for financing activities was $1,585,000.  Cash used
by financing activities included a $1,400,000 final payment on long-term
borrowings and $672,000 for dividends.  The Company has $3,000,000 available
under its current short-term line of credit and working capital of $45,433,000.
It is anticipated that present working capital, profitable operations and
available borrowings under the credit line will be sufficient to meet the
Company's normal operating requirements and the anticipated capital
expenditures for 1995 of approximately $2,000,000.
