                                     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) 452-6650).

    The  Company's  mission  is  to  provide  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 primarily 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.

    With the  introduction of  the  CRAY Superserver  6400 series,  the  Company
entered   the   commercial  market   with   customers  in   financial  services,
telecommunication, transportation and manufacturing industries.

    The Company's services include product maintenance, consulting and technical
support  and  providing  high  performance  computing  capability  through   the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Minnesota Supercomputer Center, Inc.

SEGMENT DATA

    The  Company  currently  operates  in the  high-performance  segment  of the
computer industry.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

    The Company's products  consist primarily  of the  CRAY C90  series and  its
follow-on,  the  CRAY T90  series of  high-end  parallel vector  processor (PVP)
supercomputer systems;  the CRAY  EL  series and  the  follow-on J90  series  of
lower-priced  PVP  supercomputer  systems;  the  CRAY  T3D  series  of massively
parallel processor (MPP) supercomputer systems; the CRAY Superserver 6400 series
of symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) systems; and associated software,  peripherals
and support.

    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.

    In  1994, the  CRAY EL94 system  was announced  as the newest  member of the
Company's entry-level products. The  CRAY J90 series, follow-on  to the CRAY  EL
series,  was introduced  in September  1994 and  subsequently enhanced  in early
1995. It is  currently offered  in configurations  of four  to thirty-two  CPU's
ranging in price from $220,000 to $2.7 million and began shipping in early 1995.

    The  CRAY C90 series  of supercomputer systems was  first introduced in late
1991. At the  time of its  introduction, the  CRAY C90 system  was available  in
configurations  of between eight  and sixteen CPU's. In  March 1993, the Company
announced the  availability of  the  CRAY C90  system in  smaller,  lower-priced
configurations  and  expanded  memory.  The  CRAY  T90  series  of supercomputer
systems, the Company's largest and  most powerful supercomputer, was  officially
launched  in February 1995  as the follow-on  to the CRAY  C90 series. There had
been some preliminary sales activity prior to the

                                       1
<PAGE>
product's formal announcement.  At the time  of its introduction,  the CRAY  T90
system  was offered in  configurations ranging from  one to 32  CPU's ranging in
price from $2.5 million up to  $35 million per system with general  availability
scheduled for the second half of 1995.

    The  CRAY T3D system was introduced in September 1993 as the Company's first
MPP supercomputer  system. The  CRAY T3D  system  is an  MPP system  which  when
coupled to the Company's traditional PVP system creates a scalable heterogeneous
supercomputing system.

    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, which is based on  the Novell, Inc. operating system which  is
considered an industry standard operating system.

    CRAY  SUPERSERVER 6400 SYSTEM.  In  October 1993, the Company introduced the
CRAY Superserver 6400 (CS6400) system  based on the SPARC/Solaris  architecture.
The  CS6400 system  is designed and  manufactured by  the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiary, Cray  Research  Superservers,  Inc. (CRS),  part  of  the  Company's
Business  Systems Division. 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  the Novell, Inc.  operating system.  The
CS6400  system  uses an  enhanced version  of  Solaris. The  CS6400 system  is a
binary-compatible upward extension of Sun's product line. (Binary  compatibility
refers  to the  ability of  a computer to  run software  applications from other
computers without modifications  to the  software.) As such,  the CS6400  system
provides  the basis for  the Company's focus  on the high-performance commercial
computing market, as well  as an 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 5
terabytes (TBytes) of on-line disk storage.

    The following table indicates the number of available CPU's, CPU cycle  time
and  the available amount of memory for the Company's supercomputing systems and
the superserver product line.  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>

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

    The  Company's current  operating system,  the UNICOS  8.0 system, functions
across all the  Company's supercomputer lines,  including the new  CRAY J90  and
CRAY T90 products. The CRAY

                                       2
<PAGE>
T3D  runs its own derivative of UNICOS,  called UNICOS MAX. In 1994, the Company
added the Open Software Foundation Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) as an
option to  UNICOS,  indicating  the  Company's  continuing  commitment  to  open
computing standards.

    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 accommodate the reliability, availability  and
serviceability (RAS) features of the CS6400 system.

    The  Company's compiler products, Fortran 77, Fortran 90, C and C++, support
the programming  environment for  all the  Company's supercomputer  systems.  In
1994,  the Company added the  CRAFT programming model to  its Fortran 77 product
for its CRAY T3D massively parallel systems. CRAFT reduces the effort needed  to
program  massively  parallel systems  by allowing  directives that  simplify the
process of distributing data and work among the parallel processors.

    The Company's applications software products  included two new offerings  in
1994:  the HEXAR product and the CMLogic product. The HEXAR product, released in
1994, generates meshes used in  computational fluid-dynamics and other  computer
assisted  engineering simulations. The HEXAR product is a parallel and automatic
grid-generation software package  that works  directly with  raw Computer  Aided
Design  surface data.  Using the HEXAR  product, several months  of hand crafted
work can be  replaced with less  than a  day of automated  mesh generation.  The
CMLogic product is a user interface that generates a spectrum of simulations and
interprets  the results to automate the processes of designing molds for plastic
parts.

    In 1994, the Company  expanded its software offerings  on the CS6400  system
and  on  non-Cray  platforms.  The  Company  licensed  its  Fortran  90 compiler
technology to  the  software  business  unit of  Sun,  extended  the  number  of
platforms  on which  it supports its  Network Queuing  Environment software, and
launched four additional  products on  the SPARC platform;  Fortran 90,  Libsci,
Distributed  Programming Environment,  and Open Storage  Management. The Network
Queuing  Environment   software  manages   the   distribution  of   work   among
supercomputers  and  many vendors'  workstations. Fortran  90 is  a part  of the
Company's Fortran 90 Programming Environment software previously released on its
supercomputing platforms. Libsci is a set of scientific and engineering  library
routines  that  the  Company includes  in  its Programming  Environments  on its
supercomputing platforms. Distributed Programming Environment helps  programmers
use  workstations as development platforms  for supercomputer codes. The Company
offers the Open Storage Management software in a cooperative marketing agreement
with Legent  Corporation. This  software, which  is available  on many  vendors'
platforms,  manages large quantities of data  storage on multiple media, such as
disk and tape, in an open format.

    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.  Also,  third-party
software  applications that run in a  Sun/Solaris operating environment will run
on the CS6400 system.

    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 in sizes ranging  from 128 megawords to 4096
megawords, at prices ranging  from $250,000 to $6.3  million. In February  1993,
the  Company introduced the DD-301,  the first Intelligent Peripheral Interface,
3.5-inch drive product for its supercomputers.

                                       3
<PAGE>
    The Company also markets high-performance disk drives in various  capacities
to  meet the requirements of specific system configurations and support the mass
storage requirements of the Company's supercomputer products. These disk  drives
include the DD-60, DD-62, DD-301, DA-301 and DS-42 disk subsystems.

    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. The DD-301 drive  delivers a sustained rate  of 8.2 Mbytes/sec and  has
storage capacity of 1.4 Gbytes. With capacity scalable from 5.48 Gbytes to 43.84
Gbytes,  the DA-301  disk array uses  the Company's highly  reliable DD-301 disk
drive. The DA-301 has a maximum sustained transfer rate of 32 Mbytes/sec. Prices
range from $6,000 for a single DD-301 to $285,000 for one DS-42 disk subsystem.

    The Company also sells 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.

    MAINTENANCE  AND SUPPORT.  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.

ACQUISITIONS

    In September  1994, the  Company acquired  Savant Systems,  Incorporated,  a
privately  held  consulting  firm,  specializing  in  business  system analysis,
project management and outsourcing, for  $4.25 million in cash. The  acquisition
was  made  in  support  of  the Company's  pursuit  of  the  commercial parallel
processing market for decision support solutions.

    In October 1994, the Company  acquired Minnesota Supercomputer Center,  Inc.
(MSCI) from the University of Minnesota and the University Foundation, for $10.4
million  in cash.  The acquisition  was in support  of the  Company's efforts to
provide access  to supercomputer  capabilities, tools  and resources  to a  wide
variety of users with varying needs for capacity, access, and support.

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. Supply of some memory product
components is limited by allocations that result from worldwide demand in excess
of  supply. 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 1995 production needs.

                                       4
<PAGE>
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 that  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 LEASING ACTIVITY

    The Company's central marketing activities are located in Eagan,  Minnesota,
and  Business Systems'  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 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 a 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 non-priority basis.

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, 1994 was
$237 million, of which  $214 million is  expected to be  installed in 1995.  The
contract  value of backlog at December 31,  1993 was $409 million, of which $405
million was installed in 1994. Sales to U.S. government agencies and  commercial
customers primarily serving the U.S. government constitute a significant portion
of  the Company's  business. The  backlog amount  at December  31, 1994 includes
orders from the U.S. government  and commercial customers primarily serving  the
U.S.  government for  systems, peripherals  and upgrades  with a  total contract
value of approximately $77 million;  these orders are cancelable 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, price/performance,  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 edge  in
this  market. With the introduction of the CRAY Superserver 6400 (CS6400) system
in late 1993, the Company faces  new competition 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 advantages may not
be  reduced or lost as a result  of technological, sales, marketing or financial
advantages

                                       5
<PAGE>
achieved by competitors.  Furthermore, some  of the  Company's competitors  have
significantly  greater  resources  than  the  Company.  The  Company's principal
competitors include  AT&T  Global  Information Systems  (formerly  NCR),  Convex
Computer Corporation, Cray Computer Corporation, Fujitsu, Ltd., Hewlett Packard,
Hitatchi   Data  Systems,  IBM,  Intel  Corporation,  NEC  Corporation,  Pyramid
Technology, Sequent Computer Systems, Inc., and Silicon Graphics, Inc.

DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

    The Company is committed  to leadership in  the high-performance segment  of
the computer systems market for scientific, technical, commercial and industrial
users.  Its continued leadership will be dependent on successful development and
introduction of new products  and enhancements to  existing product lines.  Such
product  development and enhancements depend not  only on 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. Development and  engineering
costs,  including costs of software development,  totalled $141 million in 1994,
$146 million in  1993 and  $162 million  in 1992 or  15.3%, 16.3%  and 20.3%  of
revenue respectively.

    Hardware  development and engineering  expenditures in 1994  were focused on
the CRAY T90 (the  Company's high-end parallel  vector supercomputer), the  CRAY
T3D  and future  massively parallel  processor (MPP)  development, the  CRAY J90
system  development  (the  Company's   line  of  lower-priced  parallel   vector
supercomputers),   the  CS6400   system  and  future   SPARC  based  Superserver
development, and ongoing  development and engineering  of existing products.  In
1994,  the  MPP  project  received  renewed  funding  of  $15.0  million  over a
three-year period from the  Advanced Research Projects  Agency (ARPA), plus  two
one-year extension options for an additional $5.0 million of funding per option.

    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 is
redefining the  architecture  of its  UNICOS  operating system  to  improve  its
scalable  performance  in anticipation  of  the industry  moving  to distributed
systems. The Company also continues to expand its network and communications and
open standards  software, including  the  industry standard  client/server  data
sharing  products that interoperate  with systems from  multiple vendors. During
1994, the  Company  delivered  enhancements to  several  compiler  products  and
delivered  compilers and load balancing 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 1994  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, 1994, the Company had 4,840 full-time employees; 1,172 in
development and engineering, 1,531 in manufacturing, 849 in marketing and sales,
1,075 in  field  service  and  213  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.

properly be brought before the meeting.

    SECTION 3.  Written notice of the annual meeting stating the place, date and
hour of the meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at  such

prior  notice and  without a  vote if  a consent  in writing,  setting forth the
action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having  not
less than a minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take

election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. If there are

employees of  Cray  Research, Inc.  and  its subsidiaries  (the  "Company")  for

  business units' and the Company's annual business objectives.

  objectives.

PERFORMANCE TARGETS

    A  Company measure will be determined  and performance levels established by
the Compensation  and Development  Committee upon  recommendation by  the  Chief
Executive Officer or President. A

                                       1
<PAGE>
measure  for each participating  business unit will  be established annually and
approved by the Chief Executive Officer or President. Concurrently, minimum  and
maximum  levels of performance will be  determined for use in calculating awards
under the Plan.

PERFORMANCE RESULTS

    The Chief Executive Officer or President will recommend to the  Compensation
and  Development  Committee  for approval  the  performance on  the  past year's
Company performance target at the first meeting of each calendar year.  Business
units'  past year's performance will be  approved by the Chief Executive Officer
or President  in  January  and  reviewed by  the  Compensation  and  Development
Committee.

DETERMINATION AND PAYMENT OF AWARDS

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

    Employees in Groups 50, 1, 2, 3 and 4 will have a component of their  awards
based  on performance against individual  objectives. Performance objectives for
these  participants  will  be   based  on  the   performance  of  specific   job
responsibilities  that  support the  achievement  of Company  and  business unit
objectives. At the  beginning of the  Plan year, these  participants, will  work
with  their managers, to develop measurable objectives to be used in determining
individual  performance.  Each  participant   and  his/her  manager  will   work
throughout  the  year to  ensure  on-going relevancy  of  objectives, reflecting
changing business conditions. At  the end of the  Plan year, each  participant's
manager  will assess performance against  objectives and recommend an individual
award percentage which accurately  reflects the individual's performance;  these
recommendations  are submitted to the appropriate  Vice President for review and
approval. If individual  objectives are  not met, adjustment  in the  individual
award  percentage will be made down to  the minimum level of zero. If individual
objectives are exceeded, adjustments up to the maximum level are to be made. The
full range of awards,  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 or President.

    Following  approval  of  Company  and  business  unit  objectives  and   the
satisfaction  of eligibility requirements, each  participant will be notified of
the manner by which his or her  award will be determined, the range of  possible
awards, and other appropriate information.

    The  individual  payout under  this  Plan is  expressed  as a  percentage of
eligible wages. For  the purposes of  this Plan, eligible  wages for Groups  1-7
include  regular  pay,  overtime  pay,  shift  differential  pay,  stand-by pay,
short-term disability paid by Cray Research, personal time and holiday time.  It
does  not  include income  from commissions,  quota attainment  payments, annual
incentive plan payouts,  the Cash Bonus  Program, discretionary awards,  imputed
income, or any amount included on an employee's W-2 for the grant or exercise of
a  stock option. It  does not include allowances  or reimbursement for expenses,
merchandise discounts or other similar  remunerations. Eligible wages for  Group
50  is the  same as for  Groups 1-7 with  the addition of  commissions and 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 business day of the year. 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.

                                       2
<PAGE>
    No  award  payments  will  be  made to  any  Plan  participants  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  or the stated  minimum level of
company performance is not achieved.

    Award payments will be made in cash  except that employees in Groups 50,  1,
2,  and 3, may take up to 50% of the award in common stock of the Company at the
participant's election, not withstanding awards  to officers who are subject  to
the  reporting requirements of Section 16b of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934 shall be paid only in cash. 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  eligible  to  participate  in  the
Deferred  Compensation Plan 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 of the status of the deferred account. Awards are not transferable.

    The Compensation  and Development  Committee shall  approve elected  officer
awards.

NUMBER OF SHARES RESERVED FOR ISSUANCE

stock  dividend, stock  split or  other change  in capitalization  affecting the
common stock of the Company,  appropriate equitable share and price  adjustments

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Cray Research, Inc. and Subsidiaries

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

     Fiscal years 1994 and 1995 constitute a critical transition period for the
Company as it prepares itself for the future. As the Company moves to higher
unit volumes and lower average selling prices, it is focusing on retaining and
building its traditional high performance supercomputing base, while also
entering new, more competitive markets where it has not had a presence in the
past. To better compete in these markets and under these conditions, Cray will
make operational changes in 1995 to improve its efficiency and achieve a more
competitive cost structure. At the same time, 1995 will be a year of product
transition, both at the high-end and the low-end of the product line. Some
of these new products will not be available for volume shipment until the second
half of 1995.

     These factors have resulted in an outlook for 1995 that includes a decrease
in revenue from 1994 levels by as much as 10%, and a decrease in gross margin as
well. Operating losses in the first half of the year should be offset by
anticipated profits in the second half. For the full year, the Company
anticipates break-even operating results prior to restructuring and one-time
charges. The Company is currently reviewing the nature and extent of necessary
restructuring and has not yet completed full evaluation of the level of charges
to be taken. It is anticipated that this evaluation will be completed by the end
of second quarter 1995.

</TABLE>

     Sales revenues increased 4.7% in 1994 after a 24.2% increase in 1993. In
total, the Company installed substantially more systems in 1994 compared with
1993, but at a lower average selling price. For example, average revenue per new
high-end system sold decreased to $8.5 million in 1994, from $15.8 million in
1993. Six of the Company's largest systems, the CRAY C916 system, were installed
in 1994, compared to twelve in 1993. The number of systems installed in 1994
increased significantly for two newer product categories: the CRAY T3D massively
parallel processor (MPP) system, and the low-end CRAY C90 products. In addition,
revenue increased in several other areas, most notably: upgrade and peripheral
sales and the new CRAY Superserver CS6400 product.

     The sales revenue increase of 24.2% in 1993 compared to 1992 was primarily
the result of an increase in the number of CRAY C916 systems sold, from six in
1992 (the year of introduction) to twelve in 1993. Average selling prices
increased from $7.3 million in 1992 to $15.8 million in 1993. The large gains in
high-end systems sales revenue were only partially offset by revenue declines in
the low-end system sales and lease-to-purchase conversions. Both of these
declines were caused by volume decreases. The reduced low-end system 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.

REVENUES (CONTINUED)

     Leased systems revenue decreased 12.4% in 1994 from 1993, and 56.3% in 1993
compared with 1992. These decreases reflect the purchase conversion of most of
the large revenue-generating systems in the lease base, and the shift in the
lease base toward smaller systems.

     Service fees declined 0.9% in 1994 after a 2.0% decrease in 1993. The 1994
decrease was due to customers migrating to lower priced service options offset
by the additional service revenue generated by the Minnesota Supercomputer
Center which was acquired in fourth quarter of 1994. The 1993 decrease was
largely the result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations impacting
international revenues.

     Revenue from U.S. customers represented 53%, 63%, and 57% of consolidated
revenue during 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Sales in Asia Pacific were
stronger in 1994 compared to 1993, after a decrease from 1992 to 1993. Sales in
the U.S. decreased from 1993 to 1994, after an increase from 1992 to 1993. Sales
in Western Europe were relatively flat for the three year period.

     Revenue from U.S. government agencies represented 36%, 43%, and 31% of
consolidated revenue during 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The higher ratio
in 1993 reflects the impact of a relatively high number of large CRAY C916
systems sold to U.S. government agencies that year. This increase was contrary
to a trend that began in 1989 as the Company's business has shifted to a higher
proportion of commercial customers and to new markets, especially for smaller
systems.

      The Company is expecting a decrease in total revenue in 1995 by as much as
10% from 1994 levels. This is due to changes in the make-up of sales revenue
from high-end systems to a higher volume of low-end systems with lower average
selling prices, and product transition on the high-end from the CRAY C90 series
to the CRAY T90 series, which will not be shipping in significant quantities
until the second half of 1995.

     In addition, MPP sales revenue is not expected to grow in 1995 over 1994,
due primarily to the slow growth of new applications for this market. The
Company believes that over time, as more applications become available, this
segment will become increasingly important as a source of revenue.

</TABLE>

     Total gross margin was 41.8% in 1994 compared with 43.7% in 1993 and 39.3%
in 1992. Changes in sales margins have the largest impact on total margins.
Sales margins decreased from 49.1% in 1993 to 47.6% in 1994 mainly as a result
of an $8.3 million restructuring charge incurred in 1994 which decreased sales
margins by 1.2%. Sales margins increased from 45.1% in 1992 to 49.1%  in 1993
primarily reflecting a $23.9 million restructuring charge in 1992, which
decreased the sales margin by 4.4%.

     Lease margins vary widely depending on the mix of systems in the lease
base, but have little impact on overall margins due to the low value of lease
revenues and margins compared to the value of sales and service revenues and
margins.

     Service margins declined to 21.9% in 1994 compared to 24.9% in 1993 and
26.2% in 1992. Service margin declines are due to a change in the installed base
from older products, with fully depreciated spares, to new products; a shift
toward smaller configurations; and customer selection of lower priced service
options with less coverage as systems become more reliable.

     In 1995, total gross margins are expected to decline compared with 1994 due
to several factors. Sales gross margins are expected to decline due to a shift
in the product mix to smaller systems and also due to product transition on the
high-end systems. Service revenues, which have substantially lower gross margins
than product revenue, are expected to represent a greater percentage of total
revenues in 1995 due to expected declines in sales revenues.

                                                                              29

</TABLE>

     Although total operating expenses increased only slightly (2.4%) from 1993
to 1994, there was a shift away from development and engineering to sales and
marketing expenses in 1994. Total operating expenses decreased 7.8% from 1992 to
1993 reflecting restructuring charges in 1992 of $17.6 million.

     During the past three years, development and engineering expenditures have
been split about equally between software and hardware. The largest software
development expenses have been for operating systems and network and
communications systems. Hardware development and engineering expenditures have
been focused on the CRAY T90, the CRAY J90, and the CRAY T3D systems.

     The MPP project has received funding from the Advanced Research Projects
Agency (ARPA) under two different agreements. Under the first agreement, ARPA
contributed $12.7 million in funding support over a three year period ending in
1993. Under the second agreement, ARPA will contribute $15 million in funding
support over a three year period ending in 1996 with two one-year extension
options for an additional $5 million of funding per option. Based on achievement
of milestones contained in the agreements, $5.0 million, $4.2 million, and $4.5
million was earned in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, and recorded as a
reduction of development and engineering expenses.

     Development and engineering expenditures are expected to decline both in
absolute dollars and as a percent of revenue in 1995 compared with 1994 as the
Company increasingly focuses its development efforts on fewer projects,
eliminates redundant efforts, and reduces unnecessary costs.

     Marketing expenses have increased due to investments in marketing,
applications, and field sales resources--especially for the low-end business.
The Company anticipates that sales and marketing expenses will increase again
in 1995 compared with 1994.

     General and administrative (G&A) expenses were up slightly in 1994 over
1993 due primarily to retirement accruals for departing employees and increased
consulting fees. G&A expenses were down slightly from 1992 to 1993 due mainly to
the absence of restructuring charges in 1993. The Company intends to reduce G&A
expenses in 1995, compared with 1994. Overall, total operating expenses in 1995
before restructuring charges are expected to be relatively flat compared with
1994.

     Other income/expense changed to $3.3 million income in 1994 from $3.4
million expense in 1993 due to the $2.6 million gain on the repurchase of
convertible debentures and foreign currency exchange gains in 1994. Other
income/expense changed from $0.2 million expense in 1992 to $3.4 million expense
in 1993 due to foreign currency exchange losses in 1993.

     The effective tax rate for 1994 was 28.4% compared with 27.9% in 1993 and
4.9% in 1992. The 1992 tax benefit was low relative to the pre-tax loss because
of limitations on the recognition of carryforwards related to the Federal
Alternative Minimum Tax and excess foreign tax credits.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cray Research, Inc. and Subsidiaries

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     On December 31, 1994, the Company had cash and equivalents of $55.5 million
and long-term cash investments of $200 million, for total cash and long-term
cash investments of $255.5 million, compared to $228.4 million a year earlier.
Operations provided significant cash in both years, $180.3 million in 1994 and
$172.7 million in 1993. Cash flows were significantly enhanced in 1994 by the
large decrease in inventory balances. This inventory decrease was largely due to
production process changes implemented in the fourth quarter of 1994 designed to
significantly reduce cycle times for high-end system manufacturing processes. To
implement these changes, some production lines were idle for a four to eight
week period during the fourth quarter of 1994. In 1995 the Company expects cash
flow to be positive before the impact of any restructuring activity.

     Excluding transfers between operating cash and long-term cash investments,
total uses of cash for investing and financing activities grew from $97.3
million in 1993 to $156.7 million in 1994. Capital expenditures increased $41.6
million in 1994 to $87.3 million. However, spending was unusually low in 1993.
Capital expenditures decreased by $44.3 million from $90.0 million in 1992 to
only $45.7 million in 1993. Capital expenditures increased in several areas in
1994, most notably in data equipment and investments in manufacturing facilities
and equipment to bring new products to market. In 1995 the Company expects
capital expenditures to decrease moderately from 1994 levels, reflecting a
reduction in investments in manufacturing facilities and equipment for new
product lines.

     The Company's long-term debt obligations totalled $97.0 million at December
31, 1994 down from $105.5 million a year earlier. This decrease was due to the
retirement in April 1994 of convertible debentures with a face value of $23
million and the simultaneous borrowing of $20.0 million under a term loan
agreement of which $5 million is in current debt. The Company's long-term debt
obligations require repayments of $7.3 million in 1995, and $5 million each year
1996 through 1998. No other significant payments are required until the year
2001.

     In 1994, the Company repurchased 829,200 shares of common stock for $19.4
million, compared to 288,200 shares for $7.6 million in 1993. At the end of
1994, the Company had authority to repurchase approximately 663,000 additional
shares.

     Stockholders' equity increased 6.4% in 1994, primarily from the year's net
earnings. Book value per share increased to $32.54 from $30.00 a year earlier.
Return on stockholders' average equity was 6.9% in 1994 compared to 8.2% in
1993.

     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 unsecured line of credit which is unused, and adequate
borrowing capacity available to meet future cash requirements, if needed, though
it has no current plans to use either.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

     The Company operates in a highly competitive environment that is rapidly
changing and that involves a number of risks, many of which are beyond the
Company's control. These risks could result in situations that would adversely
impact the Company's performance. The following list highlights some of these
risk factors:

-    government agencies/research institutions represent a major customer
     group-governmental spending reductions could adversely affect results;

-    international sales comprise nearly half of sales revenues--trade
     protection measures, export licensing regulations, changes in political
     conditions, or changes in foreign currency exchange rates could adversely
     affect results;

-    a small number of large system sales comprise a significant portion of the
     sales revenue--the timing of equipment acceptance dates can significantly
     affect results for any particular period;

-    recently introduced products comprise a substantial portion of the revenue
     in any particular period--development or manufacturing delays could
     adversely affect results in a particular period;

-    due to the high technology nature of the Company's products, component
     availability is a critical factor--delays in the availability of components
     could adversely affect results in any period by impacting the ability to
     manufacture and deliver products.

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 for income 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.

     Under SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities,"
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 implementation of this standard in 1994 did not 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 two to four years. Spares are amortized to cost of services using the
straight-line method over an estimated useful life of two 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 AND GOODWILL

     Other assets include product technology and goodwill, both of which
represent the excess of the cost of a purchased business over the fair value of
the net assets acquired. Product technology and goodwill are amortized using the
straight-line method over five to 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
consolidated statements of operations from general and administrative expense to
the line items in which the related wages are reported to conform to the 1994
and 1993 presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on previously
reported operating income or loss or net earnings or loss.


                                                                              37

     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. 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. On April 8, 1994,
the Company repurchased a portion of the debentures with a face value of
$23,000,000 for a purchase price of $20,400,000. The repurchase resulted in a
gain of $2,600,000 which was recorded as other income. This repurchase satisfied
the first four required annual sinking fund payments of $5,750,000 originally
scheduled for the years 1997 to 2000. Remaining annual sinking fund payments of
$5,750,000 each are scheduled from 2001 to 2010 with a final maturity payment
of $24,500,000 in 2011.

     To fund the debenture repurchase, the Company entered into a four year
$20,000,000 term loan agreement. The fixed borrowing rate is 6.72% and interest
payments are due semi-annually in arrears each year on October 8 and April 8.
Annual principal installments of $5,000,000 are due April 8, 1995 to
April 8, 1998.

     The Company has an unused, unsecured $75,000,000 revolving credit
agreement. 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, 1994.

     In addition, the Company's foreign subsidiaries had approximately
$20,640,000 of unused lines of credit at December 31, 1994.

Annual installments of long-term debt as of December 31, 1994, are as follows:

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The Company has only limited involvement with derivative financial
instruments and does not use them for trading purposes. They are used to manage
well-defined foreign currency fluctuation risks: specific firm foreign exchange
commitments related to customer transactions and certain foreign subsidiary
investments. At December 31, 1994, and 1993, the Company had forward exchange
contracts outstanding as noted in the chart below.

</TABLE>

     Generally these forward contracts are placed at the time the Company signs
a foreign currency sale or lease contract with a customer, or when a foreign
subsidiary makes a U.S. dollar investment, and they mature at the time the
customer's payment is due or when the subsidiary investment matures. At the time
of recognition of the related equipment sale or lease revenue, the forward
exchange contract becomes the basis for recording revenue and the related
receivable from the customer. Accordingly, exchange gains and losses are
generally not material.

     The market value of these contracts was determined by obtaining quotes from
financial institutions. The Company is subject to the remote risk that parties
to the underlying hedged contracts fail to perform their obligations to the
Company when they become due.

     The Company's 6 1/8% Convertible Subordinated Debentures are traded on the
New York Stock Exchange. The market values of these debentures were $54,120,000
and $90,169,000 at December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively. The carrying
values at December 31, 1994, and 1993 of all other financial instruments
approximate their market values.

     A concentration of credit risk exists due to the significance of revenues
from U.S. Government customers. Current and long-term receivables include
amounts due from U.S. Government agencies (or commercial customers primarily
serving the U.S. Government) of $125,481,000 and $23,230,000 at December 31,
1994, and 1993, respectively. It is the Company's policy to collateralize sales
receivables by obtaining a security interest in the equipment sold.

     At December 31, 1994, 6,250,000 shares of common stock were reserved for
issuance pursuant to stock plans.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

     The Company has a stock option plan which provides that incentive stock
options or nonstatutory stock options to purchase an aggregate of 6,358,000
shares of common stock may be granted to selected technical and management
employees. The plan also provides for a limited number of shares to be issued to

Company as of the end of the previous year.

     The Company also has a stock option plan which provides for grants to
non-employee directors of the Company of nonstatutory stock options to purchase
up to an aggregate of 200,000 shares of common stock.

     Under the plans, the option price is equal to the fair market value on the

annually, beginning one year from the date of grant, and terminate seven to ten
years from the date of grant.

Stock option plan activity is summarized as follows:

STOCK PLANS (CONTINUED)

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
181,072 shares at a per share price of $17.64 in 1994, 186,485 shares at a per
share price of $24.86 in 1993 and 188,339 shares at a per share price of $27.41
in 1992.

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
$12,611,000 in 1994, $18,258,000 in 1993 and $4,353,000 in 1992.

     Participant elections resulted in the issuance of 93,350 shares of common
stock at a per share price of $12.43 in February 1995, 82,653 shares of common
stock at a per share price of $26.35 in February 1994 and 22,969 shares of
common stock at a per share price of $22.53 in February 1993. Cash awards
totalled $11,322,000, $15,876,000 and $3,824,000 for 1994, 1993 and 1992,
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
$9,973,000 in 1994, $9,714,000 in 1993 and $10,627,000 in 1992. 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. 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 payments for 1994 and 1993
totalled $2,005,000 and $4,031,000, respectively.

                                                                              43

</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 1995 through
2034. Based on tax rates in effect on December 31, 1994, approximately
$100,000,000 of future taxable income is required prior to December 31, 2009 for
full realization of the net deferred tax asset. The Company believes that its
future taxable income will be sufficient for full realization of the net
deferred tax asset.

     At December 31, 1994, there was a minimum tax credit carryforward of
approximately $1,102,000 for federal income tax purposes which has no expiration
date. For financial reporting purposes, there was a federal foreign tax credit
carryforward of approximately $5,188,000 which expires on December 31, 1999 and
a federal minimum tax credit carryforward of approximately $3,533,000 which has
no expiration date. For both tax and financial reporting purposes, there are
state research credit carryforwards of approximately $5,559,000 which expire on
December 31, 2009.

     At December 31, 1994, there were approximately $62,642,000 of accumulated
undistributed earnings of subsidiaries outside the United States that are
considered to be reinvested indefinitely, subject to cash flow requirements. It
is not practicable to estimate the deferred tax liability related to such
undistributed 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 two agreements 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 first agreement, ARPA contributed $12,700,000 in funding support
over a three-year period ending in 1993. Under the second agreement, ARPA will
contribute $15,000,000 in funding support over a three-year period ending in
1996, with two one-year extension options for an additional $5,000,000 of
funding per option. 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 is based on the achievement of milestones
contained in the agreements. Based on these milestones, $5,000,000, $4,200,000
and $4,500,000 was earned in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, and recorded as
a reduction of development and engineering expense.

LEASING ARRANGEMENTS AS LESSOR

     The Company leases computer equipment to its customers under operating
leases with terms which generally range from one to four years. Contracts with
U.S. Government agencies generally provide for cancellation upon 30 days notice.

     At December 31, 1994 and 1993, leased equipment aggregated $94,053,000 and
$64,988,000, less accumulated depreciation of $40,313,000 and $34,128,000,
respectively.

     The Company also enters into lease transactions which are accounted for as
sales in accordance with statements issued by the FASB.

     The net investment in sales-type leases as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 is
summarized as follows:

LEASING ARRANGEMENTS AS LESSEE

     The Company leases office facilities, sales and service facilities, and
equipment under operating leases. The rental payments under these leases are
charged to expense as incurred. Future minimum lease payments under operating
leases with noncancelable terms of more than one year are identified in the
schedule below.

     Total rent expense for all operating leases, including rents under lease
arrangements with terms of one year or less, aggregated $17,827,000 in 1994,
$21,409,000 in 1993 and $21,486,000 in 1992.

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

     The Company also leases computer equipment under a capital lease. As of
December 31, 1994, this equipment had a cost of $12,573,000 and accumulated
depreciation of $1,279,000. The amortization of this asset is recorded to

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

     In 1994, the Company announced a restructuring program. Major components of
this restructuring were production process changes to substantially reduce
production times, a temporary idling of approximately 700 employees, and the
elimination of 270 regular and contract positions. These actions resulted in a
one-time charge of $8,296,000 to cost of sales in the fourth quarter 1994.

     The 1992 consolidated statement of operations also includes a restructuring
charge of $42,833,000 detailed 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 AND GOODWILL

     Product technology and goodwill represents the excess of the cost of a
purchased business over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Product
technology and goodwill is included in other assets and totals $10,068,000 and
$10,967,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, net of accumulated
amortization of $20,464,000 and $15,724,000 at each respective year end.

     Net operating losses of purchased businesses of $14,900,000 prior to
acquisition are available to the Company, subject to limitations, to offset
federal taxable income through 2005. In 1994 and 1993, tax benefits realized
reduced the carrying value of product technology by $894,000 and $2,800,000
respectively.

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.


                                                                              47

ACQUISITIONS

     In September 1994, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock
of Savant Systems, Incorporated for $4,250,000. The excess of the purchase price
over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill
totalling $3,841,000.

     In October 1994, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of Minnesota
Supercomputer Center for $10,400,000 in cash, which approximated the fair value
of identifiable net assets acquired.

     These acquisitions did not have a material impact on consolidated results
of operations during 1994.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Cray Research, Inc. and Subsidiaries


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 LLP, 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

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

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cray
Research, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 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, 1994. These
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
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
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, 1994 and 1993 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
