                               CUBIC CORPORATION
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 March 31, 1994

A.   Basis for Presentation
     ----------------------

          The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements
     have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
     therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
     presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows
     in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

          The information furnished reflects all adjustments (consisting of
     normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management,
     necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.
     Results for the quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the year.

          Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to
     current period classifications.

B.   Per Share Amounts
     -----------------

          Per share amounts are based upon the weighted average number of shares
     of common stock outstanding.

C.   Change in Accounting for Income Taxes
     -------------------------------------

          Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted Financial Accounting
     Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".  Under
     the provisions of this new standard, the Company must now recognize, to a
     greater degree, the future tax benefits of certain expenses which
     previously had been recognized in the financial statements without tax
     benefit.  As permitted by the standard, the Company has elected not to
     restate the financial statements of any prior periods.  The change was
     applied retroactively to certain elements of deferred income taxes
     originating in prior years and resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment
     of $1,379,000, which was included in net income for the quarter ended
     December 31, 1993.

          Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and
     liabilities as of October 1, 1993 are as  follows (in thousands):

D.    Subsequent Event
      ----------------

          On April 8, 1994, the Company acquired all of the assets and assumed
     certain liabilities of the Titan Applications Group and Titan Services
     International divisions of The Titan Corporation, for cash in the amount of
     $21 million.  The purchase price, which was determined by auction bid, is
     subject to an upward or downward post-closing adjustment based on the
     amount of net assets as reflected in the Closing Balance Sheet.  The
     Company intends to devote the acquired assets to continuation of the
     business of these divisions, which will operate as a subsidiary of the
     Company, within the electronic defense systems segment.

E.   Review by Independent Accountants
     ---------------------------------

          A review of the data presented was made by Ernst & Young, independent
     accountants, in accordance with established professional standards and
     procedures, and their report is included herein.

           ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
           ----------------------------------------------------------
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                 March 31, 1994


Sales from continuing operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1994, were down
slightly from the same quarter in the previous year due to lower sales volume in
the electronic defense systems segment.  This decrease was partially offset by
increased sales in the automatic revenue collection systems segment.  These
results are consistent with the trend in recent quarters due to increased
competition in the defense market caused by reduced U.S. Government spending and
the Company's success in obtaining contracts in the revenue collection business.

Income from continuing operations for the three and six month periods ending
March 31, 1994 were substantially improved from the losses incurred in the same
periods of fiscal 1993.  This improvement was the result of profits on revenue
collection system contracts in the first half of fiscal 1994, compared to losses
incurred by this segment during the first half of fiscal 1993.  Operating
profits in the electronic defense systems segment for the quarter ended March
31, 1994 were slightly lower than in the second quarter of fiscal 1993,
commensurate with the decline in sales volume for the segment.

The provisions for income taxes were different from statutory income tax rates
in all periods primarily as a result of the Company's tax exempt interest and
dividend income, and its equity share in the net income of its 50% owned foreign
subsidiary which is not subject to federal income taxes.

The Company's financial condition remains strong with working capital of $116.5
million at March 31, 1994, compared to $116.9 million at September 30, 1993.
The Company experienced positive cash flow from operations for the first six
months of fiscal 1994, resulting primarily from reductions in accounts
receivable during the period.

The backlog of orders was $288.4 million at March 31, 1994 compared to $246.7
million at September 30, 1993 and $236.4 million at March 31, 1993.

              EXHIBIT 28 -- INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT


Board of Directors
Cubic Corporation
San Diego, California


We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet of Cubic
Corporation as of March 31, 1994, and the related consolidated condensed
statements of income for the three and six-month periods ended March 31, 1994
and 1993, and consolidated condensed statement of cash flows for the six-month
periods ended March 31, 1994 and 1993.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be performed
for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements referred
to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Cubic Corporation as of September
30, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of income, retained earnings,
and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report
dated December 8, 1993, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in
the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet at September 30, 1993, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.
