              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 March 31, 1995


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

          The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements
     have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
     Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not
     include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted
     accounting principles for complete financial statements.

          In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
     recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
     included.  Operating results for the quarter are not necessarily indicative
     of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 1995.
     For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
     footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on form 10-K for
     the year ended September 30, 1994.

          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 Marketable Securities
     ----------------------------------------------

          In May 1993 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
     Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."  The Company adopted the
     provisions of the new standard for investments held as of or acquired after
     October 1, 1994, however, adoption of the new rules did not have a material
     effect on shareholders' equity at October 1, 1994 or March 31, 1995, as
     there was an immaterial difference between the cost and market value of
     securities held at those dates.

       NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- continued



D.   Contingent Amounts
     ------------------

          Accounts Receivable and Work in Process inventories include
     unrecovered costs subject to future negotiation amounting to approximately
     $7.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. These amounts result from
     customer-required work performed not specified in contract provisions
     and/or delays and interference in work performance caused by others.
     Management believes  the Company will ultimately recover these contingent
     amounts through contract modifications.

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

          A review of the data presented was made by Ernst & Young LLP,
     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, 1995


Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 increased by 55% over the same
quarter of the previous year.  A significant portion of the sales increase for
the quarter came from Cubic Applications Inc., a business acquired in April
1994. Without the newly acquired company, defense segment sales would have
increased by 14% over the prior year in both the three and six month periods
ending March 31, 1995.  Sales for the second quarter of the fiscal year were
higher in the automatic revenue collection systems segment as the result of
increased sales to major customers in New York City and London, England.  Sales
for the six months ended March 31, 1995 were also higher because of the
consolidation of Westinghouse Cubic Limited (WCL) as of January 1, 1994, as
discussed in previous reports.

Income from continuing operations for the six months ended March 31, 1995,
increased substantially from the same period in the prior year, but for the
second quarter was up only slightly.  The increase in income from continuing
operations was hampered by cost growth on a revenue collection contract with the
Florida Department of Transportation, resulting in the recognition of a loss on
the contract during the quarter ended March 31, 1995. Overall operating profit
in the automatic revenue collection segment was higher for the six month period
ended March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily
due to the consolidation of WCL.

During the second quarter of the fiscal year, the defense segment continued its
research and development expenditures for new combat training range and receiver
technology, resulting in  limited growth in operating profits during the period.
However, operating profits for this segment increased over the prior year, for
both the second quarter and six month period, as the result of operating profits
contributed by Cubic Applications Inc.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of sales
from 24% in the six months ended March 31, 1994, to 18% in the same period of
fiscal 1995, as a result of the substantial increase in sales volume, without
the need for corresponding increases in selling, general and administrative
expenses.

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



Financial Position and Liquidity
- --------------------------------

During the six month period ended March 31, 1995, cash decreased by $11.0
million. This decrease resulted from increases in long-term contract receivables
and inventories. These uses of cash were partially offset by long-term
borrowings of $6 million during the period.  The Company anticipates that the
increasing amounts receivable from customers will turn around and provide
positive cash flows in the remaining quarters of this fiscal year.

The Company's financial condition remains strong with working capital of $116.8
million and a current ratio of 2.4 to 1 at March 31, 1995.  The Company expects
that cash on hand and available through the line of credit of its leasing
subsidiary will be adequate to meet its short-term financing needs, although
alternative financing vehicles are being considered and should be in place
before the end of the fiscal year.

The backlog of orders was $385.2 million at March 31, 1995 compared to $406.5
million at September 30, 1994 and $334.9 million at March 31, 1994.

              EXHIBIT 15 -- 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, 1995, and the related consolidated condensed
statements of income for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1995
and 1994 and cash flows for the six month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.
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, 1994, 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 5, 1994, 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, 1994, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.
