1. INTERIM REPORTING

GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited financial statements consolidate the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been restated to reflect the
acquisitions of of Ram Optical Instrumentation, Inc. (ROI) and Light Control
Instruments, Inc. (LCI) (Note 2) which have been accounted for using the pooling
of interests method.  The accounts of the Company's subsidiaries in Europe have
been consolidated using a one-month lag.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
of the information in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been made and consist of only normal recurring accruals.  Certain
reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current
year presentation.  Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these
financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, and consequently, these statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto, contained in the Company's Form 8-K dated May 17,
1995.

ACQUISITIONS:

On February 28, 1995, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock
ROI, a manufacturer of video inspection systems, in exchange for 1,251,000
shares of its common stock.  Additionally, an option to purchase 3,500 ROI
common shares was exchanged for an option to purchase 72,975 Newport common
shares.  On March 30, 1995, the Company acquired all the outstanding stock of
LCI, a manufacturer of laser-diode instruments, in exchange for 128,000 shares
of its common stock.

These transactions have been accounted for as poolings of interests.  Costs
associated with these acquisitions totaling $0.1 million were charged to
operations in the first quarter of 1995.

RESTRUCTURING:

At December 31, 1994 $2.4 million remained of the restructuring reserves
established during 1992 and 1993.  During the first two quarters of 1995, $0.9
million was charged to the reserve representing $0.4 million for severance and
$0.5 million to close facilities.  It is expected that the remaining $1.5
million, principally severance and costs to close facilities, will be spent
during the remainder of 1995.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
               THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT'D)

NET SALES:

Sales for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, were $25.5
million and $49.8 million, respectively, compared with $23.6 million and $45.9
million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994.  The current
quarter increase is attributable to sales growth in US domestic markets ($1.0
million) and a favorable exchange rate effect ($1.3 million) on sales
denominated in foreign currencies offset in part by declines in sales to
European markets ($0.4 million).  The year-to-date increase is attributable to
sales growth in US domestic ($2.7 million) and European markets ($0.3 million)
and a favorable exchange rate effect ($2.3 million) on sales denominated in
foreign currencies offset in part by declines in sales to the Pacific Rim ($1.1
million).

The Company's domestic sales totaled $13.6 million and $26.5 million for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, compared with $12.6 million
and $23.8 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994, a
sales increase of 7.9% and 11.3%, respectively, for the quarter and the six-
month period.  The current quarter sales increases from the year ago level was
primarily attributable to increased sales revenue at ROI.  The six-month sales
increase from the year ago level was primarily the result of growth across the
core product lines and to increased sales revenue at ROI and LCI.

International sales of the company were $11.9 million and $23.3 million for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, compared with $11.0 million
and $22.1 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994, a
sales increase of 8.2% and 5.9% for the respective periods.  The increase for
the three months ended June 30, 1995 resulted primarily from the favorable
exchange rate effect mentioned previously offset in part by declines in Europe.
The year-to-date increase resulted from a strengthening of sales in the major
markets of Europe and the favorable exchange rate effect mentioned previously,
offset in part by declines in the Pacific Rim.  The Company believes the
international sales decline in the Pacific Rim from the year ago level resulted
primarily from the weak economic environment in Japan.

COST OF SALES:

Cost of sales when stated as a percentage of sales for the three- and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1995, was 54.6% and 55.1%, respectively, a decrease
compared with 54.8% and 55.4% for the three- and six-month periods ended June
30, 1994.  The decrease is principally attributable to the actions taken during
the first quarter of 1994, when the company initiated a number of cost saving
measures in Europe.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES:

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three- and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1995, increased 4.2% and 7.4%, respectively, compared
with the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994. SG&A expenses when
stated as a percentage of sales were 33.5% and 33.9%, compared with 34.9% and
34.2% for the prior year periods.  This improvement is principally attributable
to the favorable productivity effects of increased sales volume.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES:

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the three- and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1995, increased 45.6% and 29.5%, respectively, compared with the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994.  These R&D expenses when
stated as a percentage of sales were 7.0% and 6.9%, compared with 5.2% and 5.8%
for the prior year periods.  These increases are principally attributable to
costs associated with the development of new precision systems for niche markets
in the semiconductor, medical instrumentation and telecommunications industries.

INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER INCOME:

Interest expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, was
$0.4 million and $0.8 million respectively compared with $0.4 million and $0.9
million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1994.  Other income,
consisting of interest, dividends and other income was $0.4 million and $1.2
million for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, compared with
$0.9 million and $1.0 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June
30, 1994.

Other income consists of the following:

PROVISION FOR TAXES:

The tax provision for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, of
$0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, is principally federal and state
taxes on domestic taxable income.  During the quarter ended March 31, 1994 the
Company settled its liabilities for California Franchise taxes for the years
1978, 1979 and 1980.  The California Franchise Tax Board accepted a $0.2 million
tax payment made during September 1992 as full and complete settlement of the
Company's liabilities for those years.  As a result, tax reserves established in
prior periods for associated interest and penalties totaling $0.4 million ($0.3
million after tax, equal to 4 cents per share) were restored to operations
during the six-month period ended June 30, 1994.  The effective tax rates during
the three months ended June 30, 1994, was higher than the current year quarter
because of foreign net operating losses that occurred during the prior year
period had not been currently benefited in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 109.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Company generated $3.4 million
cash from operations, $0.9 million from sales of investments and $0.6 million
from exercises of stock options.  These funds were used to reduce debt by $3.6
million and acquire capital equipment with a cost of $1.6 million.

The Company believes its current working capital position together with
estimated cash flows from operations, its existing credit availability and
anticipated refinancing are adequate for operations in the ordinary course of
business, anticipated capital expenditures as well as debt repayment
requirements over the next year.
