                ITEM 1.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                 ROBINSON NUGENT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

               MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999, AND JUNE 30, 1999



1.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
    financial statements contain all adjustments necessary (all of  which
    are normal and recurring) to present fairly the financial position of
    the  Company and its subsidiaries, results of operations,  and   cash
    flows  in  conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles.
    The  results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily
    an indicator of results to be expected for the entire year.

2.  Reference   is  directed  to  the  Company's  consolidated  financial
    statements  (Form 10-K), including references to the  Annual  Report,
    for  the  year  ended June 30, 1999 and management's  discussion  and
    analysis included in Part I, Item 2 in this report.

3.  The  Company recorded special and unusual charges of $151,000, before
    taxes, in the quarter and $757,000 year to date.  These expenses  are
    presented  separately as a component of the operating income  in  the
    consolidated statements of operations.  These expenses are  personnel
    costs  incurred  to  design  and  implement  a  new  information  and
    enterprise  resource planning system for North American and  European
    operations.  This new system was designed and implemented to  satisfy
    year  2000  requirements, enhance management and control systems  and
    improve customer service and vendor communications.

4.  The  Financial  Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS  No.  133,
    "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
    establishes accounting and reporting standards for hedging activities
    and   for   derivative  instruments,  including  certain   derivative
    instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to  as
    derivatives).   It requires that an entity recognize all  derivatives
    as  either  assets  or  liabilities in  the  statement  of  financial
    position  and  measure  those instruments at  fair  value.   Robinson
    Nugent  will adopt the new standard in fiscal 2001.  Robinson  Nugent
    does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact
    on its financial statements.

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



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Customer  orders for the third quarter ended March 31, 2000, amounted  to
$25.3  million, up 25 percent from orders of $20.3 million  in  the  same
quarter of the prior year.  Growth trends in the Company's target  market
segments, including Internet equipment related applications and satellite
communications  interfaces,  as  well as the  general  connector  market,
continue  to be strong.  Customer orders for the nine months ended  March
31,  2000  amounted to 76.1 million, up 38 percent from orders  of  $55.1
million  in  the  prior year.  This increase in customer orders  for  the
first  nine  months of the year reflected a 24 percent  increase  in  the
United  States, a 63 percent increase in Europe and a 75 percent increase
in  Asia.  The Company increased its backlog of unshipped orders to $21.4
million, an increase of 43 percent compared to $15.0 million at March 31,
1999,  and  65  percent compared to $13 million at June  30,  1999.   The
Company's  backlog  in  the United States has increased  26  percent  due
primarily  to  increased  orders  of  connectors  for  Internet   related
applications  such  as servers, routers, hubs and other telecommunication
equipment.  The European backlog increased 86 percent, primarily  due  to
an  increase in customer orders of smart card reader connectors  used  in
digital satellite receivers and television set top boxes.  Based  on  the
improved  incoming  order  activity and a  higher  backlog  of  unshipped
orders,  management anticipates a continuation of the Company's  improved
performance  as Robinson Nugent enters the final quarter  of  the  fiscal
year.

Net  sales increased 29 percent in the quarter to $24.0 million  compared
to $18.7 million in the third quarter of the prior year, and increased  5
percent  compared  to $22.8 million in the second quarter  of  the  year.
Customer sales in the United States increased 24 percent to $13.9 million
compared to $11.2 million in the third quarter of the prior year.   Year-
to-date customer sales in the United States increased 28 percent to $41.0
million  compared to $32.0 million in the first nine months of the  prior
year.   The  Company  continues to experience higher levels  of  incoming
orders and sales activity of its higher margin backplane connectors,  and
its  high-density, surface mount, fine pitch board-to-board  interconnect
systems.   Both  types  of  connectors  are  used  in  communication  and
networking  components  utilized to support  the  infrastructure  of  the
Internet.   Profit margins remain strong in the United States  operations
due to the Company's focus on this highly technical and rapidly expanding
market  segment.   United  States  operations  have  also  experienced  a
resurgence of growth of a number of its more mature product lines.

European customer sales increased 40 percent to $7.0 million compared  to
$5.0  million  in the third quarter of the prior year, and  increased  46
percent to $18.8 million in the first nine months of the year compared to
$12.8  million in the prior year.  This sales growth is due primarily  to
an  increase in customer orders and sales of next-generation, value added
smart  card readers with integrated printed circuits, as well as standard
single  and  double smart card reader connectors.  These  connectors  are
currently in demand by major communication and digital satellite receiver
manufacturing  companies in Europe.  The European  management  team  will
continue  to  focus  its  engineering and sales effort  on  this  growing
business  niche.  Based  on the strong incoming  order  activity  and  an
increase  in the backlog of unshipped orders in these product categories,
management anticipates a continuation of this growing sales trend in this
geographic region in future quarters.  Profits in Europe continue  to  be
adversely  affected  by the weakening of the Euro when  compared  to  the
pound  sterling and the U.S. dollar.  Management will continue to  pursue
and  utilize  cost effective measures to mitigate currency rate  exposure
risk.

<PAGE>
Customer sales in Asia were $2.4 million in the quarter compared to  $1.6
million in the third quarter of the prior year, and $6.0 million year  to
date compared to $4.4 million in the prior year.

Gross  profits continued to improve in the quarter ended March  31,  2000
amounting  to $7.0 million, or 29.1 percent, compared to $4.8 million  or
25.7  percent in the prior year and $6.5 million or 28.4 percent  in  the
prior quarter.  Gross profits for the nine months amounted to $19 million
or  28.1  percent compared to $11.5 million or 22.5 percent in the  first
nine  months of the prior.  Gross profits are net of engineering  charges
associated  with new product development, which amounted to $1.1  million
or  4.4  percent  of net sales in the current quarter  compared  to  $0.9
million  or  4.8  percent  in the prior year.   Year-to-date  engineering
charges were $3.4 million or 5.0 percent compared to $2.4 million or  4.8
percent  in the prior year.  It is anticipated that the higher  level  of
research and development expenditures will continue in future quarters to
support  an increase in new product development in the United States  and
Europe.   The  increase in gross profits in the quarter compared  to  the
prior  year  reflects  product  mix, overall  cost  reductions,  improved
manufacturing efficiencies, and better plant utilization.  Gross  profits
continue to be favorably impacted by the increase in sales of newer, high-
value   products  for  high-end  computer  work-stations,  servers,   and
telecommunication equipment providers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of
the year were $13.4 million compared to $10.3  million in the prior year.
Selling,  general  and administrative expenses of $4.9  million  for  the
three  months  ended  March 31, 2000 increased  36  percent  compared  to
expenses  of  $3.6 million in the third quarter of the prior  year.  This
increase  was  due  primarily  to higher sales  commission  expenses  and
operating  expenses related to the new information system in  Europe  and
the United States.

The  Company recorded special and unusual expenses of $0.2 million before
taxes, in the quarter. These expenses include personnel costs incurred to
design and implement the new information and enterprise resource planning
system  in North America and Europe.  This system is operational for  all
of  the  Company's connector and cable assembly operations in the  United
States,  Mexico and Europe.  This system was designed and implemented  to
satisfy  Y2K  requirements, enhance management and control  systems,  and
improve customer services and vendor communications.

Other  income  and  expense for the three months ended  March  31,  2000,
reflect  expenses  of  $237,000 compared to income of  $235,000  for  the
comparable  three-month period in the prior year and expense of  $859,000
compared  to  expense of $628,000 for the comparable  nine-month  period.
Other income and expense reflected a currency gain in the current quarter
of $12,000 compared to a currency loss of $54,000 in the third quarter of
the  prior year.  Current and prior year-to-date results include currency
losses of $256,000 and $118,000 respectively.  There was a small increase
in  interest expense in the current quarter and year to date compared  to
the  prior  year  due to increased borrowings used to  fund  new  product
development, systems to improve customer service levels and the  purchase
of  our Scotland facility.  The currency gain in the quarter was reported
primarily  in  Asia and the United States, but were partially  offset  by
currency losses in Europe.

The  provision  for  income  taxes  was provided  using  the  appropriate
effective  tax  rates  for  each of the tax jurisdictions  in  which  the
Company  operates.  The Company maintains a valuation allowance  for  tax
benefits  of  prior period net operating losses in various jurisdictions.
At such time as management is able to project the probable utilization of
all  or  part  of  these net operating loss carryforward provisions,  the
valuation allowances for these deferred tax assets will be reversed.

<PAGE>
The  net  income  in the quarter ended March 31, 2000  amounted  to  $1.2
million or 23 cents per share, compared to $508,000 or 10 cents per share
in  the  third  quarter of the prior year.  These results  represent  the
sixth  consecutive  quarter of increased profitability  from  operations.
The  net income for the nine months amounted to $2.9 million or 56  cents
per share compared to a net loss of $770,000 or 16 cents per share in the
prior year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Working  capital at March 31, 2000 amounted to $22.9 million compared  to
$13.0 million at March 31, 1999 and $14.7 million at June 30, 1999.   The
current  ratio was 2.6 to 1 at March 31, 2000 compared to  2.2  to  1  at
March  31, 1999.  The increase in working capital, compared to the  prior
year,  primarily reflects a $5.9 million increase in accounts  receivable
and  $7.2  million  increase in inventory, partially  offset  by  a  $3.0
million  increase in accounts payable.  The increase in inventory  should
improve customer service levels and provide a basis for a continuation of
growth  in sales and profits in future periods.  Long-term debt excluding
current  installments  was  $11.3 million  as  of  March  31,  2000,  and
represented  41  percent  of  shareholders' equity  at  March  31,  2000,
compared  to $8.6 million or 38 percent of shareholders' equity at  March
31, 1999.

In  February 2000, the Company sold its facility in New Albany,  Indiana,
to  a  limited liability company owned by two of the Company's  principal
shareholders  for  approximately $2.1 million in cash.  This  transaction
resulted  in  a  small gain on the sale.  This facility was  subsequently
leased  back  by  the Company for $220,000 per year, under  a  two  year,
triple-net lease.

The  Company  believes  future working capital  and  capital  expenditure
requirements  can  be  met  from cash provided by  operating  activities,
existing  cash  balances,  and borrowings available  under  the  existing
credit facilities.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND YEAR 2000 ISSUES

The   Company  successfully  completed  the  implementation  of  its  new
worldwide  management  information system.  This new  information  system
addressed  business  and  system processes  including  order  management,
manufacturing  resource planning, finance and accounting.  These  systems
were  implemented  at  a total cost of approximately  $7.0  million.  The
Company expects that this new integrated system will increase operational
efficiencies and support future growth.  All operations in North America,
Europe and Asia have been converted to Y2K compliant systems.  As of this
date,   the   Company   has  not  experienced  any  significant   adverse
difficulties  with  any  of its systems, its key  suppliers,  vendors  or
customers'  systems relative to Y2K.  The Company has incurred  costs  in
the  current  quarter and year to date of approximately $0.2 million  and
$1.4  million respectively.  Expenditures in the current quarter is  made
up  of  $0.2 million of personnel costs that are reflected in the special
and unusual expense category of the statement of operations.  Funding for
these  expenditures was provided by operating activities,  existing  cash
balances and borrowings available under the existing credit facilities.

Expenses  and  capital expenditures for this project for the  first  nine
months of the year were $0.8 million and $0.6 million respectively.


DIVIDEND ACTION
On  April  5,  2000 the Board of Directors voted not to  declare  a  cash
dividend in the quarter.
