                                     PART I

ITEM 1 -- BUSINESS

    Cray  Research, Inc.  (the Company) was  incorporated in 1972  as a Delaware
corporation. Its principal corporate and  administrative offices are located  at
655A Lone Oak Drive, Eagan, Minnesota 55121 (telephone (612) 683-7100).

    The  Company's mission  is to provide  the leading  supercomputing tools and
services  to  help   solve  its  customers'   most  challenging  problems.   The
computational tools created by the Company consist of high-performance computing
systems and related software and are used by scientists and engineers to perform
computational  research. Computational  research, the  mathematical modeling and
simulation of physical and other  quantifiable phenomena, allows researchers  to
investigate   areas  that  are  physically  impossible  or  too  time-consuming,
dangerous, or expensive to study in  any other way. The Company's  computational
tools  are  used  by  scientists and  engineers  in  many  commercial industries
including aerospace, automotive, chemical/pharmaceutical and petroleum, as  well
as  in  many  public  and  private  research  centers,  such  as  government and
environmental science organizations and universities.

    As of December 31, 1993,  the Company had a  customer installed base of  321
high-end  systems and 184 entry-level  systems. Entry-level systems include CRAY
Y-MP EL systems and SPARC-based CRAY  Superserver 6400 systems. During 1993,  41
new  and 19 used high-end  systems were accepted by  customers, consisting of 18
new and 19 used CRAY Y-MP systems, 22 new CRAY C90 systems, and one new CRAY T3D
system. Additionally,  a  total  of  41 entry-level  systems  were  accepted  by
customers in 1993.

SEGMENT DATA

    The  industry  segments  in which  the  Company currently  operates  are the
high-performance scientific and commercial segments of the computer industry.

PRODUCTS

    The Company's products consist of the CRAY  C90, CRAY T3D and the CRAY  Y-MP
series  of supercomputer systems  and related software  and peripheral equipment
and SPARC-based CRAY Superserver 6400 systems.

    SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEMS.  The  Company's supercomputer systems offer  multiple
central  processing  unit  (CPU) configurations  that  operate  independently on
separate jobs or in combination on a single job.

    The CRAY Y-MP series  of supercomputer systems was  first introduced by  the
Company in 1988. In 1991, the Company began the delivery of enhanced versions of
the  original CRAY Y-MP system. In 1992, the Company announced the CRAY Y-MP M90
series of supercomputers which features very  large shared memory. In 1991,  the
Company  introduced the  CRAY Y-MP  EL entry-level  supercomputer system  as the
smallest supercomputer  in the  CRAY Y-MP  product line.  In 1993,  the  Company
announced  enhancements to the CRAY Y-MP EL  product line: the CRAY EL98 and the
CRAY EL92 systems. And  in 1994, the  CRAY EL94 system  was announced. With  the
addition  of these entry-level products, the Company's product line was extended
to the office environment.

    The CRAY C90 series  of supercomputer systems was  first introduced in  late
1991  as  the CRAY  Y-MP C90  system,  the Company's  largest and  most powerful
supercomputer. At  the  time  of  its introduction,  the  CRAY  C90  system  was
available  in configurations of  between eight and sixteen  CPUs. In March 1993,
the Company announced the availability of the CRAY C90 system in smaller, lower-
priced configurations and expanded memory.

                                       1
<PAGE>
    The Cray T3D system was introduced in September 1993 as the Company's  first
massively parallel processing (MPP) supercomputer system. The CRAY T3D system is
a  scalable  heterogeneous  supercomputing system  which  couples  the Company's
traditional parallel  vector  processing capabilities  with  massively  parallel
processing.

    The  Company's supercomputer systems  span a price range  of $150,000 to $74
million.

    The following table indicates  the number of available  CPUs, the CPU  cycle
time and the available amount of memory for the Company's supercomputer systems.
CPU  cycle time represents the amount of time in which the computer runs through
one complete  instruction  cycle  and  is measured  in  nanoseconds  (nsec),  or
billionths  of a second.  Central memory is measured  in megawords. One megaword
equals eight megabytes (Mbytes) or eight million bytes.

</TABLE>

    Included as standard equipment on all of the Company's supercomputer systems
is an Input/ Output Subsystem which is capable of transferring data directly  to
and  from central memory  at extremely high  speeds without interrupting central
processing operations.  The  Company's  supercomputer  systems  use  the  UNICOS
operating  system, a proprietary operating system  which is based on AT&T's Unix
System V operating  system, and  are binary-compatible with  each other.  Binary
compatibility  refers to the ability of  a computer to run software applications
from other computers without modifications to the software.

    CRAY SUPERSERVER 6400 SYSTEM.  In  October 1993, the Company introduced  the
SPARC/Solaris  CRAY  Superserver  6400  (CS6400) system.  The  CS6400  system is
designed and manufactured by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Cray Research
Superservers, Inc. (CRS). The  CS6400 system is a  result of a joint  technology
agreement  and collaboration with Sun Microsystems, Inc. (Sun) signed in January
1992. SPARC is  a CPU  architecture pioneered by  Sun. Solaris  is an  operating
environment developed by Sun based on AT&T UNIX System V. The CS6400 system uses
an  enhanced version of Solaris. The CS6400 system is a binary-compatible upward
extention of Sun's product line. As  such, the CS6400 system provides the  basis
for  the Company's focus on the high-performance commercial computing market, as
well as  a seamless  interface from  the Solaris  environment to  the  Company's
supercomputers.  The CS6400  system can be  configured with up  to 64 SuperSPARC
processors, up to 16 gigabytes (GBytes) of central memory, and over 2  terabytes
(TBytes) of online storage.

    PERIPHERAL  EQUIPMENT.   The Company's  Solid-state Storage  Device (SSD) is
designed to  enhance  high-end  supercomputer system  performance  by  providing
high-speed  access to large datasets and  temporary storage for system programs.
Traditional high-speed disk  storage units transfer  data at rates  of up to  20
megabytes  per second (Mbytes/sec) compared to a SSD transfer rate of up to 1800
Mbytes/ sec. The SSD is available with memory sizes ranging from 32 megawords to
2048 megawords, at prices ranging from $125,000 to $4.0 million.

    In  February  of  1993,  the  Company  introduced  the  DD-301,  the   first
Intelligent  Peripheral  Interface, 3.5  inch  drive product  for  Cray Research
Supercomputers. Each  DD-301 drive  delivers a  sustained transfer  rate of  8.2
Mbytes/sec  and has  storage capacity  of 1.4  Gbytes. The  Company also markets
three other high-performance disk drives: the  DD-60, the DD-62, and DS-42  disk
subsystem.

                                       2
<PAGE>
With  the exception of the CRAY Y-MP  EL product line, these disk drives support
the mass storage requirements of the Company's supercomputer products. The DD-60
has a  storage capacity  of 1.96  Gbytes and  a sustained  transfer rate  of  20
Mbytes/sec.  The  DD-62 has  a  data capacity  of  2.73 Gbytes  and  a sustained
transfer rate of  8.1 Mbytes/sec. The  DS-42 disk subsystem  consists of a  disk
controller  and a disk cabinet containing up  to four DD-42 disk drives. A fully
configured DS-42  disk  subsystem has  a  data capacity  of  38.9 Gbytes  and  a
sustained  transfer  rate  of  9.6 Mbytes/sec.  The  DS-42  disk  subsystem also
supports the mass storage requirements  of the Company's previous  supercomputer
systems.  Prices range from $6,000 for a single DD-301 to $600,000 for one DS-42
disk subsystem.

    In November  1993, the  Company introduced  the Cray  Research Network  Disk
Array,  a bulk  storage device designed  to reside  on high-performance computer
networks. This  product  provides users  with  a flexible  storage  device  that
combines  high-speed data transfer  with the ability to  partition the device to
more than one system on the network.

    SOFTWARE.   The  Company's  software products  primarily  include  operating
systems,  compilers and applications software.  The Company also markets various
networking and remote computing/file management software.

    The Company's current  operating system,  the UNICOS  8.0 system,  functions
across  all of the Company's supercomputer lines, including the CRAY T3D system.
In 1993, the UNICOS operating system was certified as POSIX compliant indicating
that it meets requirements for use in open systems environments.

    The CS6400 product line  runs the Sun Solaris  operating system enhanced  by
the Company to improve processor and memory management, incorporate parallel and
batch  processing capabilities and accomodate  the reliability, availability and
serviceability (RAS) features of the CS6400 system.

    The Company's compiler  products, Fortran 77,  Fortran 90, C,  C++ and  Ada,
support the programming environment for all the Company's supercomputer systems.
Beginning  in 1993, the Company began releasing new versions of its compilers as
a component of  a "Programming  Environment" -- an  integrated software  product
that combines the compiler, programming tools and other features in one software
release.  Versions of the Company's Fortran 77,  Fortran 90, C and Ada compilers
are available in this new Programming Environment.

    The  Company's  applications  software  products  include  the  UNICHEM  and
CRI/TURBOKIVA  products.  The  UNICHEM  product is  a  software  environment for
computational chemistry  supporting  key  molecular  simulation  codes.  UNICHEM
Version  2.0, released  in 1993, is  also distributed  by Molecular Simulations,
Inc. for  users of  workstations and  other desktop  systems. The  CRI/TURBOKIVA
product  is a combustion simulation package  used by the automotive industry and
is based  on  Los Alamos  National  Laboratory's  KIVA II  program.  The  latest
version, CRI/TURBOKIVA 2.0, was released in 1993.

    In   1993,  the  Company  announced  two  initiatives  designed  to  oversee
development and marketing of the Company's software on the CS6400 system and  on
non-Cray platforms. In July 1993, the Company announced an agreement with Absoft
Corporation  to develop software tools that would allow scientists and engineers
to write  programs on  personal computers  and then  run them  on more  powerful
systems,  including the Company's systems. In October 1993, the Company launched
CraySoft, an internal software development and marketing initiative.  CraySoft's
first  product, the Network  Computing Environment (NQE), supports  the use of a
set of workstations and supercomputing

                                       3
<PAGE>
platforms as a single computational  resource, managing distribution of work  to
the appropriate platform. Beginning in 1994, CraySoft will market several of the
Company's  compiler  programming environment  software packages  for use  on the
CS6400 system  and  non-Cray  platforms,  including  workstations  and  personal
computers.

    In   addition  to   the  Company's  applications   software  products,  many
third-party software  applications  are  available  for  use  on  the  Company's
supercomputer  systems  under the  UNICOS operating  system and  any third-party
software applications that run in  a Sun/Solaris operating environment will  run
on the CS6400 system.

SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS

    Most  integrated circuits  required for  the Company's  computer systems are
designed by the  Company and  then manufactured  by and  purchased from  outside
sources. The Company manufactures most of the printed circuit boards and some of
the  logic integrated circuits used in its  products. Due to the use of advanced
technology  components  in  the  Company's  products,  certain  components   are
available  only from  a limited number  of suppliers. Significant  delays in the
delivery of  a substantial  number of  these components  could adversely  affect
production  schedules, revenues and operating results. The Company believes that
its sources of supply for components are adequate for 1994 production needs.

PATENTS

    The Company has obtained patents relating to its computer systems. While the
Company may apply  for patents as  it develops products  and processes which  it
believes  to be  patentable, the Company  believes that  its success principally
will be dependent upon its ability  to design advanced products rather than  its
ability to secure patents.

SEASONALITY

    The  Company's  business  is  not inherently  seasonal  in  nature. However,
operating results are significantly influenced by the timing of the availability
of new products,  the number  of computer  systems accepted  within a  reporting
period,  the configuration of the systems accepted  and whether a system is sold
or leased.

MARKETING AND SUPPORT SERVICES

    The Company's central marketing activities  are located in Eagan,  Minnesota
and  Cray Research Superservers' marketing is  located in Beaverton, Oregon. The
Company markets its computer systems through its own sales force to customers in
North America, Europe, Latin  America, the Far East  and Australia, and  through
independent  representatives in  the Middle East  and the Far  East. The Company
also offers products through distributors and re-sellers in selected markets.

    The Company offers its systems for sale or lease. Sales include both systems
sold to  customers or  third-party  lessors and  certain long-term  leases  that
qualify  for sales accounting treatment. Operating lease terms generally are for
one to three years, with a purchase option entitling the user to a partial lease
payment credit in the event of purchase. These operating leases do not return to
the  Company  its  selling  price  plus  interest  charges  during  the  initial
noncancellable term of the lease. In the accounting period in which an operating
lease  begins, revenue  and earnings  are lower than  the levels  which would be
achieved if  the  system were  sold.  Leases also  increase  cash  requirements.
Systems  sold to third-party  lessors are re-marketed by  the Company upon lease
termination on a best efforts basis.

    Maintenance and other support services following installation are  performed
by  hardware  engineers  and software  analysts  employed by  the  Company. Such
services are provided under separate  maintenance contracts between the  Company
and  its customers. These  contracts generally provide  for maintenance services
for one year and are renewable annually at the customer's election.

                                       4
<PAGE>
BACKLOG

    The Company believes backlog information provides only a limited  indication
of  its expected  future revenue.  The Company  measures backlog  using contract
value which is based on selling price  for sales orders and the guaranteed  cash
flows  for lease orders. The contract value  of backlog at December 31, 1993 was
$409 million, all of  which is expected  to be installed  in 1994. The  contract
value  of backlog at December  31, 1992 was $417  million, of which $362 million
was installed in  1993. Included  in the total  backlog amount  at December  31,
1993,  are orders from the United States government for systems, peripherals and
upgrades with a total contract value of approximately $109 million; these orders
are cancellable under standard termination  for convenience clauses included  in
most U.S. government contracts.

COMPETITION

    Competition  in  the  computer  industry  is  based  primarily  on equipment
performance and reliability,  manufacturer reputation,  software capability  and
availability,  price, and availability of support services. The Company competes
primarily in the market for high-performance scientific and engineering computer
systems and believes that it holds a competitive advantage in this market.  With
the  introduction of the CS6400  system in late 1993,  the Company will face new
competion in the commercial marketplace. There  can be no assurance that  levels
of  competition  within  the markets  in  which  the Company  competes  will not
intensify or that the Company's technological  advantages may not be reduced  or
lost  as a result of technological advances by competitors. Furthermore, some of
the Company's competitors have significantly greater resources than the Company.
The  Company's  principal  competitors  include  Convex  Computer   Corporation,
Fujitsu,  Ltd., Hewlett Packard,  IBM, Intel Corporation,  NCR, NEC Corporation,
Silicon Graphics, Inc., and Thinking Machines Corporation.

DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

    The Company is committed to  leadership in the high-performance  scientific,
commercial  and engineering computing systems  market, and its continued success
will be largely dependent  upon its successful  development and introduction  of
new  products  and  enhancements to  its  existing product  lines.  Such product
development and  enhancements  depend  not  only  upon  the  Company's  internal
development  and  engineering  activities,  but also  upon  the  availability of
advanced  technology  components  from  outside  suppliers  as  described  under
"Sources and Availability of Raw Materials" above.

    The Company's strategy is to continue enhancement of existing products while
devoting  substantial resources  to the  development of  new products  which are
expected to provide acceptable returns  to the Company. The Company's  intention
is  to spend  at least  15% of revenue  annually on  development and engineering
activities for  these products.  Development  and engineering  costs,  including
costs  of software development,  totalled $146 million in  1993, $162 million in
1992 and $143  million in 1991,  or 16.3%, 20.3%  and 16.6% of  revenue in  each
respective year.

    Hardware  development and engineering  expenditures in 1993  were focused on
the same areas as  in 1992: the Triton,  the Company's next generation  high-end
parallel  vector  supercomputer;  MPP  system  development;  entry-level  system
development; and ongoing Cray C90  development and engineering. The MPP  Project
received  funding of $12.7 million  over a three year  period ended in 1993 from
the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA).

    In  the  area  of  software  development,  the  Company  is  developing  new
applications  software  and  is continuing  to  enhance and  develop  its UNICOS
operating system,  compilers  and  application  development  tools  to  increase
functionality  and  performance.  The  Company  also  is  expanding  its network
communications software  to provide  increased  connectivity to  other  computer
systems. During 1993, the Company completed the development of enhanced versions
of  several compiler products and began initiatives to develop selected software
for use on desktop systems and other non-Cray platforms.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

    Compliance by  the  Company  with Federal,  state  and  local  environmental
protection  laws during 1993  had no material  effect upon capital expenditures,
earnings or competitive position and is expected to have none in the foreseeable
future.

EMPLOYEES

    As of December 31, 1993, the  Company had 4960 full-time employees: 1082  in
development  and engineering, 1798 in manufacturing, 728 in marketing and sales,
1157  in  field  service  and  195  in  general  management  and  administrative
positions.  The Company has never experienced  any material work stoppage due to
labor disagreements,  and in  the  opinion of  management, the  Company's  labor
relations are satisfactory. No employees are represented by labor unions.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN OPERATIONS

    Information  concerning revenue, operating profit and identifiable assets by
geographic area for 1993, 1992 and 1991 is included on page 32 of the  Company's
1993  Annual  Report  to  Stockholders  for the  year  ended  December  31, 1993
(hereinafter the "Annual Report"), which  information is incorporated herein  by
reference.

    The  Company's  international  business  is  subject  to  risks  customarily
encountered in foreign operations,  including fluctuations in monetary  exchange

         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Cray Research, Inc.:

    Under  date of  January 25,  1994, we  reported on  the consolidated balance
sheets of Cray Research, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and  1992
and   the  related  consolidated  statements   of  operations,  cash  flows  and
stockholders' equity  for each  of  the years  in  the three-year  period  ended
December 31, 1993, as contained in the 1993 Annual Report to Stockholders. These
consolidated  financial statements  and our  report thereon  are incorporated by
reference in the Annual  Report on Form  10-K for the  year 1993. In  connection
with our audits of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, we also
have  audited the  related financial  statement schedules  as listed  in Item 14
herein. These  financial  statement  schedules are  the  responsibility  of  the
Company's  management.  Our responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these
financial statement schedules based on our audits.

    In our  opinion,  such financial  statement  schedules, when  considered  in
relation  to  the  basic consolidated  financial  statements taken  as  a whole,
present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

                             ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN
                     (AS AMENDED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1994)

    The  purpose of  the Annual  Incentive Plan is  to recognize  and reward key
employees of  Cray  Research, Inc.  and  its subsidiaries  (the  "Company")  for
significant   contributions  to  the   Company's  annual  business  performance.
Incentive  awards  are  based  on  performance  results  compared  to   annually
established  plan goals. The Plan shall  be administered by the Compensation and
Development Committee of the Board of Directors.

OBJECTIVES

- - Promote strong linkages  between employee contributions  and overall  business
  unit and Company performance that enhances shareholder value.

- - Reward  performance  that directly  supports the  achievement of  the business
  units' and the Company's annual business objectives.

- - Reward and  recognize  innovation  and creativity  in  accomplishing  business
  objectives.

- - Attract  and retain the critical technical and management talent necessary for
  the Company's success.

- - Provide the opportunity for significant  compensation based on individual  and
  Company annual performance without increasing compensation fixed costs.

ELIGIBILITY

    Eligibility  for Plan participation  will be based on  position level in the
Company immediately following the January salary cycle each year. Some employees
will automatically participate in the  Plan, and others will require  nomination
for  participation  by  the  appropriate Vice  President.  The  Compensation and
Development Committee shall approve elected officer participation and awards and
general levels of  participation throughout the  Company. Employees promoted  or
hired  into  eligible positions  after the  beginning  of the  Plan year  may be
nominated during  the year.  Executive management  will review  all  nominations
prior  to approval by the Chief Executive Officer. Participants will be notified
of their eligibility for the year  following the first meeting of the  Committee
for the year.

    Generally,   non-management   employees  whose   compensation   includes  an
opportunity for sales  commissions will  be excluded from  participation in  the
Plan. In addition, movement out of an eligible salary grade during the Plan year
will result in removal from the Plan.

PERFORMANCE TARGETS

    Company  measurements will be determined  and performance levels established
for the year by the Compensation and Development Committee at the first  meeting
of  each  calendar year,  upon recommendation  by  the Chief  Executive Officer.
Measurements for each participating business unit will be established  annually.
Concurrently,  minimum and maximum levels of  performance will be determined for
each measure for use in calculating awards under the Plan.

PERFORMANCE RESULTS

    The  Chief  Executive  Officer  will  recommend  to  the  Compensation   and
Development  Committee for approval  the performance on  the past year's Company
performance targets at the  first meeting of each  calendar year. Business  unit
performance  on  the  past  year's business  unit  performance  targets  will be
determined by the Chief Executive Officer in January.

DETERMINATION AND PAYMENT OF AWARDS

    All participants will have their  awards determined by Company and  business
unit performance.

    Certain lower level participants will have a component of their awards based
on  performance  on  individual  objectives.  Performance  objectives  for these
participants  should   be   based   on   the   performance   of   specific   job
responsibilities,  as  well  as Company  and  business unit  objectives.  At the
beginning of the Plan year, these lower level participants, with the approval of
their managers, will specify
<PAGE>
measurable objectives to be used for this purpose. Each participant and  his/her
manager  should work throughout the year to make sure the objectives are current
and reflective of  changing business conditions.  At the end  of the Plan  year,
each  participant's managers will assess performance on objectives and recommend
an  individual  award  percentage  with  respect  to  such  objectives  to   the
appropriate  Vice President. If individual objectives are not met, adjustment in
the individual award percentage  down to the  minimum level are  to be made.  If
individual  objectives are exceeded, adjustments up  to the maximum level are to
be made. The range from minimum to  maximum is expected to be utilized by  those
making  award recommendations. Executive management endorsement is also required
prior to final approval by the Chief Executive Officer.

    At the time a participant is  notified of eligibility such participant  will
also be notified of the manner in which his or her award will be determined, the
range of possible awards, and other appropriate information.

    The individual award is expressed as a percentage of eligible wages. For the
purposes  of this Plan, eligible wages are  defined as currently defined for the
Retirement Savings  Plus Plan,  excluding  commissions and/or  quota  attainment
payments.  The individual  award percentage range  will be  established for each
employee based on his or her level  of participation. The minimum award for  any
participant  is 0%, the maximum award will  be the highest award opportunity for
an employee in a given level.

    To be eligible to receive an award payment, participants in the Plan must be
an employee of the Company on the last day of the year. In addition, only  those
employees  who are in an eligible  salary grade on the last  day of the year are
eligible to receive an  award payment. In  the event of  death or disability,  a
prorated award will be made to the participant or the participant's estate based
on  the eligible wages of  the employee at time  of death or disability, Company
and business unit  performance for  the year,  and the  individual's target.  NO
AWARD  PAYMENTS  WILL  BE MADE  TO  ANY  PARTICIPANTS IN  THE  PLAN  IF PAYMENTS
CALCULATED UNDER THE TERMS  OF THE PLAN  WOULD RESULT IN A  LOSS FOR THE  FISCAL
YEAR WITH RESPECT TO WHICH PAYMENTS ARE MADE.

    Award  payments will be made in cash. Up to 50% of the award may be taken in
common stock of the  Company at the  participant's election; provided,  however,
that  awards to officers shall be paid only  in cash, and officers may not elect
to take stock. Elections must be made  prior to the end of the current  calendar
year,  with  payments  anticipated  at the  end  of  February,  unless otherwise
determined by the Compensation and Development Committee.

    Awards paid in stock will be based on the closing market price of the  stock
on  the first  working day of  February of the  new year, discounted  by 15%. In
addition, individual  participants who  are officers  of the  Company may  defer
(prior  to the  end of the  current calendar year)  all or any  portion of their
bonus to be paid. Participants will be advised in writing annually of the status
of the deferred account. Awards are not transferable.

NUMBER OF SHARES RESERVED FOR ISSUANCE

    A total of  500,000 shares  of the Company's  common stock,  one dollar  par
value, has been reserved for issuance to employees participating under the Plan.
As of January 1994, 279,603 shares have been issued to participants.

ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES

    In  the event of a  recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization,
stock dividend,  stock split  or other  change in  capitalization affecting  the
common  stock of the Company, appropriate  equitable share and price adjustments
shall be made  to awards  and the  Plan to  prevent dilution  or enlargement  of
rights.

AMENDMENT

    The Board of Directors reserves the right to amend or cancel the Plan at any
time.

</TABLE>

  Sales revenue increased 24.2% in 1993 after a 9.8% decline in 1992. Twelve of
the Company's largest systems, the CRAY C916 system, were installed in 1993,
compared to six in 1992, the year of introduction. As a result, average revenue
per new high-end system sold increased to $15.8 million in 1993, from $7.3
million in 1992. Sales revenue gains from these systems were offset partially by
approximately $100 million of revenue declines, split equally between entry-
level systems and lease-to-purchase conversions. Both declines were caused by
volume decreases. The reduced entry-level systems volumes resulted from the
transition period during which the Company moved the distribution of these
systems from an independent distributor back to the Company's sales force.

  The sales revenue decline in 1992 compared to 1991 was the result of a
reduction in the number of new high-end systems sold, from 56 in 1991 to 43 in
1992. Average selling prices also declined, from $8.4 million to $7.3 million,
due to market pricing pressures from the maturing of the CRAY Y-MP product line
prior to the introduction of the CRAY C90 systems. The high-end systems revenue
decline was offset partially by volume sales of entry-level systems and revenue
from lease-to-purchase conversions.

  Leased systems revenue decreased 56.3% in 1993 from 1992, and 31.9% in 1992
compared to 1991. Lease revenues in 1993 and 1992 showed the impact of the large
number of 1992 purchase conversions, and also were affected by a shift in the
lease base toward smaller systems.

  Service fees declined 2.0% in 1993 after a 10.7% increase in 1992. The 1993
decrease was the result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The 1992
increase reflects growth in the installed base and service fees from maintenance
contracts acquired in an acquisition.

  Revenue from U.S. customers represented 63%, 57% and 51% of consolidated
revenue during 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Sales in Europe and Japan were
strong in 1991, but declined in 1992 and in 1993, reflecting depressed economies
in those regions.

  Revenue from U.S. government agencies increased in 1993 to 43% of consolidated
revenues, compared to 31% in 1992 and 32% in 1991. The high ratio in 1993
reflects the impact of declining international sales and the high number of
large CRAY C916 systems sold to U.S. government agencies in 1993. The increase
is contrary to a continuing trend that began in 1989 as the Company's business
shifts to a higher proportion of

commercial customers and to new markets, especially for small systems.

  The Company is planning for increased total revenue in 1994, with substantial
changes in the make-up of sales revenue. Sales are expected to shift to smaller
systems and to the Company's new massively parallel processing (MPP) system, the
CRAY T3D. This mix change, together with continued market pricing pressures, is
expected to result in significantly lower average selling prices. To meet its
revenue goals, the Company must achieve a significant increase in the number of
systems accepted in 1994, many of which will be new customer installations.

  The total gross profit margin was 43.7% in 1993, compared to 39.3% in 1992 and
53.1% in 1991. Changes in sales margins have the largest impact on total
margins. Sales margins increased from 45.1% in 1992 to 49.1% in 1993, as a
result of the absence of restructuring charges. During 1992, a fourth quarter
restructuring added $23.9 million to cost of sales and decreased the sales
margin by 4.4%. Margin improvements on CRAY C90 systems in 1993 were offset by
increases in other costs. Sales margins in 1991 were 62.2%, reflecting the lower
production costs of CRAY Y-MP8 systems, and a sales mix that included fewer
small systems.

  Lease margins vary widely depending on the mix of systems in the lease base,
but have little impact on overall margins. The marked decline in the 1992 lease
margin was caused by the lease-to-purchase conversion of several high margin
leases.

  Service margins declined to 24.9% in 1993, compared to 26.2% in 1992 and 25.6%
in 1991. Service margins on CRAY C90 systems are lower than margins achieved in
prior years on high-end CRAY Y-MP systems. Spares costs are higher, and the
Company is responding to customer requirements for lower priced service options
with less coverage as systems become more reliable.

  During 1994, the Company expects some downward pressure on overall gross
profit margins, reflecting a shift to smaller, lower gross margin systems and
continued pressure on service margins.

  Total operating expenses declined 7.8% during 1993 as a result of cost control
measures established during the fourth quarter 1992 restructuring. As a
percentage of revenue, 1993 operating expenses are relatively comparable to
1991. Expenses in 1992 were increased by restructuring charges of $10.7 million
in development and engineering and $5.9 million in marketing. Marketing expenses
also have risen in response to expanding product lines and markets, and during
1993, increased grants to university customers due to an increase in sales
activities in that market.

  The Company is committed to annually spending at least 15% of revenue on the
development and engineering of products that will provide acceptable returns.
During the past three years, expenditures have been

split about equally between software and hardware. The largest software
development expenses have been for operating systems, compilers and network and
communications systems software. Hardware development and engineering
expenditures in 1993 and 1992 were focused on the same areas: the Triton, the
Company's next generation high-end parallel vector supercomputer; MPP system
development; entry-level system development; and ongoing CRAY C90 development
and engineering. Compared to 1991, expenses have shifted toward Triton, MPP and
entry-level systems, and away from the CRAY C90.

  The MPP project received funding through 1993 from the Advanced Research
Projects Agency (ARPA). ARPA funding of $4.2 million in 1993, $4.5 million in
1992 and $4.0 million in 1991 was used to partially offset development expenses.

  Net other income (expense) declined from income of $3.9 million in 1991 to
expense of $.2 million in 1992 and $3.4 million in 1993. Foreign currency
exchange losses accounted for most of the increase in expense from 1992 to 1993.
Other income in 1991 includes a $4.0 million gain on the sale of part of the
Company's holdings of Cray Computer Corporation stock.

  The effective tax rate for 1993 was 27.9%, compared to 4.9% in 1992 and 32.2%
in 1991. The 1992 tax benefit was low relative to the pretax loss because of
limitations on recognition of carryforwards related to the federal Alternative
Minimum Tax and excess foreign tax credits. The 1993 effective tax rate was
several percentage points below historical levels, reflecting the reinstatement
of the Federal Research and Development tax credit retroactive to July 1992, and
the utilization of tax benefit carryforwards from 1992.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

  On December 31, 1993, the Company had cash and equivalents of $78.4 million
and long-term investments of $157.0 million, for total cash and investments of
$235.4 million, compared to $161.5 million a year earlier. Operations provided
significant cash in both years, $172.7 million in 1993 and $186.8 million in
1992. Cash flows in 1992 were enhanced by the collection of large receivables
balances from significant December 1991 sales activity.

  Excluding transfers between operating cash and long-term investments, total
uses of cash for investing and financing activities declined from $138.0 million
in 1992 to $97.3 million in 1993. Capital expenditures decreased $44.3 million
in 1993 to $45.7 million. Spending was unusually low in 1993, and is expected to
increase in 1994. Significant emphasis will be placed on upgrading printed
circuit board production and integrated circuit development capabilities to
support new product introductions.

  Common stock repurchases also were lower in 1993, dropping to 288,200 shares
for $7.6 million, compared to 925,000 shares for $30.0 million in 1992. The
Company repurchases its common stock subject to available cash flows and market
conditions. At the end of 1993, the Company had authority to repurchase up to
approximately 1.7 million additional shares.

  Stockholders' equity increased 7.8% in 1993, primarily from the year's net
earnings. Book value per share increased to $30.00 from $27.76 a year earlier.
Return on stockholders' average equity was 8.2% in 1993 compared to negative
2.0% in 1992.

  The Company believes that its future cash requirements can be met with
existing cash and investments and cash generated from operations. The Company
also has a $75 million unused, unsecured line of credit available to meet future
cash requirements. The Company's long-term debt obligations do not require
significant payments until 1997.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

  The accompanying consolidated financial statements, including the notes
thereto, and other financial information presented in the Annual Report were
prepared by management, which is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and include amounts that are based upon
our best estimates and judgements.

  The Company maintains an effective system of internal accounting control. We
believe this system provides reasonable assurance that transactions are executed
in accordance with management authorization and are appropriately recorded in
order to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and to adequately safeguard, verify, and maintain
accountability of assets. The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the
recognition that the cost of a system of internal control should not exceed the
benefits derived.

  KPMG Peat Marwick, independent certified public accountants, are retained to
audit the Company's financial statements. Their accompanying report is based
on an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
The audit includes a review of the internal accounting control structure to
gain a basic understanding of the accounting system in order to design an
effective and efficient audit approach and not for the purpose of providing
assurance on the system of internal control.

  The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is composed of three outside
directors and is responsible for recommending the independent accounting firm to
be retained for the coming year, subject to stockholder approval. The Audit
Committee meets periodically and privately with the independent accountants, as
well as with management, to review accounting, auditing, internal accounting
controls, and financial reporting matters.

consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements 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
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting

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 aforementioned consolidated financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cray Research, Inc.
and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the results of their

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cray Research, Inc. and Subsidiaries


PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cray
Research, Inc and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company). All material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accounts of
foreign subsidiaries are consolidated as of November 30 to facilitate timely
reporting.


REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from system sales is recognized at the time the system is accepted by
the customer or independent distributor, or in the case of a conversion from
lease to purchase, at the time of the customer's election to convert.

Revenue from systems under operating lease contracts is recorded as earned over
the lease term. Service fees are recognized monthly as earned.

Trade-in allowances may be granted when a used system is traded-in on the
purchase or lease of a new system. These allowances are recorded as a reduction
of revenue on the new system.


FORWARD EXCHANGE CONTRACTS

Forward exchange contracts are purchased to hedge specific foreign currency
commitments, the majority of which are related to foreign sale and lease
contracts. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on these exchange contracts
are deferred and recognized as part of the related sale or lease transaction.


DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

Development and engineering costs relate to hardware and software development
and enhancements to existing products. All such costs are expensed as incurred.
Software development costs incurred after the technological feasibility of a
software product has been established are not material. Funds earned by the
Company under research and development arrangements whereby the Company retains
the rights to any technologies developed are recorded as a reduction of the
development costs incurred.


UNIVERSITY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT GRANTS

The Company sponsors software research and development projects at universities
under separate research and development grant agreements. These agreements
generally provide for funding of the projects in fixed amounts over periods of
one to five years.

In exchange for the funding, the Company receives nonexclusive rights to any
software developed. The entire cost of grants with terms in excess of one year
is accrued and charged to expense in the year in which the agreement becomes
effective.


INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No.  109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based upon temporary
differences between the financial statement amounts and tax bases of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates. The Company previously accounted for income
taxes under SFAS No. 96. The cumulative effect of the change in the method of
accounting forincome taxes did not have a material effect on 1993 consolidated
results of operations and is included in 1993 income tax expense.

In connection with the exercise of nonstatutory stock options and disqualifying
dispositions of common stock acquired by employees under the incentive stock
option plans, the amounts deductible in determining Federal income taxes exceed
amounts charged to income. Any reduction in Federal income taxes payable as a
result of these differences is credited to additional paid-in capital.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Earnings (loss) per common and common equivalent share is computed by dividing
net earnings (loss), adjusted for the dilutive effect of eliminating convertible
debenture interest expense, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
and equivalent shares (excluding treasury shares). Equivalent shares result from
dilutive stock options and, if dilutive, the assumed conversion of convertible
debentures.

CASH AND INVESTMENTS

Cash and equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with low
interest rate risk. Long-term investments consist of investments which the
Company intends to hold beyond one year.

Equity securities are carried at the lower of cost or market. All other
investments are stated at cost, which approximates market.

SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities," was issued in
May 1993. Under SFAS No. 115, the carrying values of certain securities are
required to be adjusted to fair market values and the resulting unrealized gain
or loss included in earnings. The Company expects to implement this standard in
1994. Implementation is not expected to have a material effect on consolidated
results of operations or financial condition.


INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined principally on a first-
in, first-out basis) or market.


LEASED SYSTEMS AND SPARES

Leased systems and spares for maintenance are capitalized and carried at cost
less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Leased systems are depreciated
using the sum-of-years-digits method over an estimated useful life of three to
four years. Spares are amortized to cost of services using the straight-line
method over an estimated useful life of three to four years. Depreciation
commences upon system acceptance.


PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation
and amortization. Plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line
method over their estimated useful lives or, in the case of leasehold
improvements, over the periods of the related leases, if shorter.


PRODUCT TECHNOLOGY

Other assets include product technology, which represents the excess of the cost
of a purchased business over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Product
technology is amortized using the straight-line method over seven years.


POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

The Company accrues the cost of postretirement benefits other than pensions in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 106. The Company implemented this
Statement in 1993. Implementation did not have a material impact on consolidated
results of operations.


TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars
in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 52. Under this Statement, all
assets and liabilities are translated using period-end exchange rates and
earnings statement items are translated using average exchange rates for the
period. The resulting translation adjustments are made directly to a separate
component of stockholders' equity.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Deferred profit sharing expense has been reclassified in the 1992 and 1991
consolidated statements of operations from general and administrative expense to
the line items in which the related wages are reported to conform to the 1993
presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on previously reported
operating income or loss or net earnings or loss.

  The subordinated debentures are convertible into the Company's common stock at
a conversion price of $78 per share at any time prior to maturity. If no
conversion occurs, the Company is required to make annual sinking fund payments
of $5,750,000 from 1997 to 2010 and a final maturity payment of $24,500,000 in
2011. The debentures may be redeemed at the Company's option at a price of
101.23% after January 31, 1994, decreasing to 100% after January 31, 1996.

  The Company has an unused, unsecured $75,000,000 revolving credit agreement.
The agreement has an initial term of three years expiring on April 30, 1995, and
may be renewed annually thereafter. Interest is based on various short-term
floating rates. The agreement contains a number of restrictive covenants with
which the Company was in compliance at December 31, 1993.

  In addition, the Company's foreign subsidiaries had approximately $20,054,000
of unused lines of credit at December 31, 1993.

Annual installments of long-term debt as of December 31, 1993, are as follows:

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
  The Company has a Qualified Stock Purchase Investment Plan under which a
maximum of 2,200,000 shares of common stock are available for sale to employees.
Under this plan, eligible employees may designate from 2 to 15 percent of their
compensation to be withheld through payroll deductions for the purchase of
common stock at 85% of the lower of the market price on the first or the last
day of the offering period. Participant elections resulted in the issuance of
186,485 shares at a per share price of $24.86 in 1993, 188,339 shares at a per
share price of $27.41 in 1992, and 107,114 shares at a per share price of $29.96
in 1991.

ANNUAL INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN

  The Company has an Annual Incentive Award Plan providing for performance
incentive awards to key employees based on the achievement of individual and
stated company financial and technical objectives. Awards are payable at year-
end in cash or, at the employee's election, up to 50% may be received in common
stock of the Company (up to an aggregate maximum of 500,000 newly issued or
repurchased shares) at 85% of its fair market value. Plan awards totalled
$18,258,000 in 1993, $4,353,000 in 1992 and $8,559,000 in 1991.

  Participant elections resulted in the issuance of 82,653 shares of common
stock at a per share price of $26.35 in February 1994, 22,969 shares of common
stock at a per share price of $22.53 in February 1993 and 39,675 shares of
common stock at a per share price of $35.38 in February 1992. Cash awards
totalled $15,876,000, $3,824,000 and $7,011,000 for 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively.


PROFIT SHARING PROGRAM

  The Company's profit sharing program consists of a distributed cash bonus and,
for domestic employees, contributions to a defined contribution Retirement
Savings Plus Plan that meets the qualifications of Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code. All employees of the Company with at least six months of
service are eligible to participate in the program.

  The Retirement Savings Plus Plan allows eligible domestic employees to
contribute up to 15 percent of their base compensation to an investment savings
account. The Company's contributions to the plan consist of a matching
contribution of 50 cents per dollar contributed by the employee up to a maximum
of $1,000 per employee, and an annual deferred profit sharing contribution equal
to 4% of an employee's eligible wages. The Company's deferred profit sharing
contribution is limited to the maximum amount allowable for income tax purposes.
The Company's contributions to the Retirement Savings Plus Plan were $9,714,000
in 1993, $10,627,000 in 1992 and $8,864,000 in 1991. Employees of the Company's
foreign subsidiaries participate in other retirement plans.

  Prior to 1993, the distributed cash bonus was determined by subtracting the
Company's contribution to the Retirement Savings Plus Plan from a percentage of
pretax, pre-profit sharing earnings. The total profit sharing percent,
determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors, was 10.0 percent for
1991. As a result of the Company's net loss in 1992, there was no distributed
cash bonus for that year.

  On January 29, 1993, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new Incentive
Cash Profit Sharing Plan to replace the distributed cash bonus under the
Company's previous profit sharing program. Payments under the new plan are based
on achieving  operating income targets. The payment for 1993 totalled $4,031,000

</TABLE>


  A valuation allowance is provided when there is some likelihood that a
portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. The valuation
allowance relates to certain temporary differences which reverse in the years
1994 through 2033.

  For financial statement purposes, Federal minimum tax credit carryforwards of
approximately $1,820,000 are available to offset future income tax expense. The
minimum tax credit carryforwards have no expiration date. In addition, state
research credit carryforwards of approximately $4,200,000 are available for both
income tax and financial statement purposes. These carryforwards expire on
December 31, 2006 and 2007.

  At December 31, 1993, there were approximately $64,155,000 of accumulated
undisturbed earnings of subsidiaries outside the United States that are
considered to be reinvested indefinitely, subject to cash flow requirements.
it is not practcable to estimate the deferred tax liability related to such
undisturbed earnings. If such earnings were remitted to the Company, applicable
U.S. Federal income and foreign withholding taxes would be substantially
offset by available foreign tax credits.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ARRANGEMENTS

  The Company has entered into an agreement with the Advanced Research Projects
Agency (ARPA) to collaborate on the research and development of technologies for
massively parallel processing (MPP) computer systems.

  Under the agreement, ARPA contributed $12,700,000 in funding support over a
three-year period ending in 1993. The Company may elect to retain title to any
technologies developed and ARPA will receive a license to the technologies for
its internal use. The timing of the funding was based on the achievement of
milestones contained in the agreement. Based on these milestones, $4,200,000,
$4,500,000 and $4,000,000 was earned in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively, and
recorded as a reduction of development and engineering expense.

  Substantially all leases provide that the Company pay taxes, maintenance,
insurance, and certain other operating expenses applicable to the leased
premises.


RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

  On October 15, 1992, the Company announced a restructuring program. Key
components of the restructuring were a reduction in the manufacturing build
plan, decreases in inventory on hand, and the elimination of 800 regular and
contract positions. These actions resulted in a one-time charge of $42,833,000
in the fourth quarter of that year. This charge included provisions for the
workforce reduction, inventory write downs and adjustments related to the
declining volume, and facility and equipment write downs to reduce and
consolidate manufacturing and internal data processing. The restructuring charge
is included in the 1992 consolidated statement of operations as follows: cost of
sales--$23,920,000; cost of services--$1,345,000; development and engineering--
$10,726,000; marketing-- $5,912,000; general and administrative -- $930,000.

PRODUCT TECHNOLOGY

  As a result of the 1990 acquisition of Supertek Computers, Inc., the Company
recorded an intangible asset, product technology, totalling $26,691,000.
Accumulated amortization of product technology aggregated $15,724,000 and
$9,175,000 at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

  Supertek's net operating losses of $14,900,000 prior to acquisition are
available to the Company, subject to limitations, to offset federal taxable
income through 2005. In 1993, tax benefits realized reduced the
carrying value of product technology by $2,800,000.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

  There are no legal proceedings pending against or involving the Company which,
in the opinion of management, will have a material adverse effect upon
consolidated results of operations or financial position.
