                            AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1994
                                  (UNAUDITED)


 1.  INTERIM REPORTING

 GENERAL

 The accompanying unaudited financial statements present the accounts of the
 RAM Optical Instrumentation, Inc. (ROI).

 In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
 presentation of the information in the unaudited condensed financial
 statements have been made and consist of only normal recurring accruals.
 Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these financial
 statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading,
 certain information and footnote information 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 ROI's audited financial
 statements and notes thereto, for the year ended March 31, 1994, presented
 as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company's Form 8-K filed on March 15, 1995.

 2.  CUSTOMER RECEIVABLES

 Customer receivables aggregated $1,600,000 and 1,262,000 at December 31,
 1994 and March 31, 1994, respectively.  Bad debts are charged to operations
 in the year in which the account is determined uncollectible.  If the
 reserve method of accounting for uncollectible accounts were used, it would
 not have a material effect on the financial statements.  Receivables from
 customers are generally unsecured.

 3.  INVENTORIES

 Inventories are stated at cost, determined using the first-in, first-out
 (FIFO) basis, and do not exceed net realizable value.

         Inventory consists of the following at December 31, 1994 (in
     thousands):

        Materials                                    $1,077

              PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The following pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been
prepared to give effect to the acquisition of RAM Optical Instrumentation, Inc.
(ROI) by Newport Corporation (Newport) using the pooling of interests method of
accounting.

     The pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 1994
gives effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred at December 31, 1994 and
combines the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Newport and the condensed
balance sheet of ROI as of of December 31, 1994. The balance sheet of Newport
has been derived from its audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1994 filed on Form 10-K. The balance sheet of ROI represents an
internally prepared balance sheet as of December 31, 1994 and is unaudited.

     The pro forma combined condensed statements of operations combine the
historical consolidated statements of Newport and ROI for the years ended
December 31, 1994 and 1993, the five months ended December 31, 1992 and the year
ended July 31, 1992, in each case as if the acquisition had occurred at the
beginning of the earliest period presented. The statements of operations of
Newport have been derived from its audited financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 1994 filed on Form 10-K. Effective December 31, 1993 Newport
Corporation had changed its fiscal year-end from July 31 to December 31. The
statements of operation of ROI are derived from the historical financial
statements of ROI, recast to conform to Newport's reporting periods, and are
unaudited.

     Newport and ROI estimate that they will incur direct transaction costs of
approximately $130,000 associated with the acquisition which will be charged to
operations during the first quarter of 1995. It is not anticipated that there
will be any additional charges to operations related to costs associated with
integrating the two companies. There can be no assurance that the combined
companies will not incur additional charges to reflect costs associated with the
acquisition or that management will be successful in its efforts to integrate
the operations of the two companies.

     Such pro forma combined condensed information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of future financial position or
results of operations. These pro forma combined condensed financial statements
are based upon the respective historical consolidated financial statements of
Newport and ROI and should be read in conjunction with the respective historical
financial statements and notes thereto of Newport filed on Form 10-K and the
financial statements of ROI included elsewhere in this Form 8-K/A and in the
related Form 8-K filed on March 15, 1995 and do not include all benefits from
cost savings or synergies of operations of the combined company.

                             FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   PRO FORMA BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     These pro forma combined condensed financial statements reflect the
issuance of 1,251,000 Newport Common Shares in exchange for an aggregate of
60,000 ROI Common Shares, an exchange ratio of 20.85. An option to purchase
3,500 ROI Common Shares was exchanged for an option to purchase 72,975 Newport
Common Shares.


2.   PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET

     Newport and ROI estimate they will incur direct transaction costs of
approximately $130,000 associated with the acquisition consisting of transaction
fees for attorneys, accountants and consultants. These nonrecurring transaction
costs will be charged to operations during the first quarter of 1995. These
direct transaction costs are not reflected in the Pro Forma Combined Condensed
Statements of Operations.

3.   PRO FORMA EARNINGS PER SHARE

     The pro forma earnings per share have been calculated using the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and, for periods with income, the
dilutive effects of common stock equivalents (stock options), determined using
the treasury stock method previously reported by Newport. These are adjusted by
the number of newly issued shares, and by the dilutive effect of newly issued
stock options in those periods with income, also using the treasury stock
method.

4.   PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following is a summary of the historical results of operations of
Newport and ROI and their pro forma combined amounts to reflect the acquisition
as if it were effected for all periods presented below. Any benefits from cost
savings or synergies of operations of the combined company are not included.

5.   SUPPLEMENTAL ADJUSTMENTS TO NET INCOME

     Subsequent to the acquisition of ROI by Newport, management contractually
reduced the level of bonus and other employment expenses relating to former
officers of ROI. The impact of such cost reductions on pro forma net income and
pro forma net income per share for the year ended December 31, 1994 would be to
increase pro forma net income by $401,000 to $3,595,000 and increase pro forma
net income per share by $0.05 to $0.43.

     The income tax effect of the cost reductions described in the previous
paragraph has been determined using ROI's statutory tax rate for the twelve
months ended December 31, 1994.
