1.   PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The financial information furnished herein is unaudited,  but, in the opinion of
the management of Microsemi Corporation,  includes all adjustments (all of which
are normal,  recurring  adjustments)  necessary for a fair  presentation  of the
results of operations for the periods  indicated.  The results of operations for
the  first  fiscal  quarter  of the  current  fiscal  year  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated 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  financial  statements  and notes should,
therefore,  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and  notes
thereto in the Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended  October 1,
1995.

The Company's 5.875% Convertible  Subordinated Debentures require annual sinking
fund payments in the amount of 5% of the principal amount thereof, commencing in
March 1997, less the principal amount of converted or redeemed debentures.


4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings  per share for the  primary  basis  have been  computed  based upon the
weighted  average  number of common and  common  equivalent  shares  outstanding
during the  respective  periods.  Earnings per share for the fully diluted basis
have been computed, when the result is dilutive,  based upon the assumption that
the convertible subordinated debt had been converted to common stock at the date
of issuance,  with a corresponding increase in net income to reflect a reduction
in related interest expense, net of applicable taxes.

6.   CONTINGENCY

In  Broomfield,   Colorado,   an  owner  of  property   located  adjacent  to  a
manufacturing  facility  owned by a  subsidiary  of the  Company  had filed suit
against the subsidiary and other parties, claiming that contaminants migrated to
his property,  thereby  diminishing  its value.  In August 1995, the subsidiary,
together with former owners of the manufacturing facility,  agreed to settle the
claim and to  indemnify  the owner of the  adjacent  property  from  remediation
costs.  Although TCE and other contaminants  previously used at the facility are
present  in soil and  groundwater  on the  subsidiary's  property,  the  Company
vigorously  contests  any  assertion  that the  subsidiary  is the  cause of the
contamination;  however,  there  can  be no  assurance  that  recourse  will  be
available  against  third  parties.  State and local  agencies in  Colorado  are
reviewing current data and considering study and cleanup options,  and it is not
yet possible to predict costs for  remediation or the  allocation  thereof among
potentially responsible parties.


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


Introduction

       Microsemi  Corporation is a  multinational  supplier of high  reliability
power  semiconductors,  surface  mount  and  custom  diode  assemblies  for  the
electronics,   computer,   telecommunications,   defense/aerospace  and  medical
markets. The Company's  semiconductor  products include diodes,  transistors and
silicon  controlled  rectifiers  (SCR's)  which  can be  used in  virtually  all
electrical  and  electronic  circuits.  Typical  functions  include  solid state
switching, signal processing,  voltage and power regulation,  circuit protection
and absorption of electrical surges and transient  voltage spikes.  Technologies
for these devices range from the very mature mesa rectifier diodes still used in
all power supply  applications to the newly designed  micro-miniature  transient
absorbers,  which are  mounted  within the cables used to connect  computer  and
telecommunications equipment.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

       Microsemi  Corporation's  operations  in the first quarter of fiscal year
1996  were  funded  with  internally  generated  funds and  borrowings  from the
Company's  line of credit.  Under the  current  line of credit,  the Company can
borrow up to $20,000,000  based upon percentages of certain accounts  receivable
and inventory  balances at certain of the Company's  operations.  As of December
31, 1995,  $2,935,000 was borrowed under this credit  facility.  At December 31,
1995, the Company had $3,117,000 in cash and cash equivalents.

       A letter of credit for the  Microsemi  Santa Ana  Industrial  Development
Revenue  Bond is carried by a bank in the amount of  $5,557,000.  This letter of
credit guarantees the repayment of a $5,350,000  Industrial  Development Revenue
Bond which was issued in April 1985 and carries interest  currently at 6.75% per
annum,  through the City of Santa Ana for the  construction of improvements  and
new facilities at the Santa Ana plant. The terms require  principal  payments of
$350,000 in 1996,  1997 and 1998;  $100,000 from 1999 to 2004 and  $3,700,000 in
2005.

       The Company believes that it can meet its current operating cash and debt
service requirements with internally generated funds together with its available
borrowing capacity.

       The average collection period of accounts  receivable was 51 days for the
first  quarter of fiscal  year 1996  compared  to 55 days for the same period of
fiscal year 1995.

       The average days sales of products in  inventories  decreased to 153 days
for the  first  thirteen  weeks  of  fiscal  year  1996  from  179  days for the
corresponding  period of fiscal year 1995.  This primarily  resulted from higher
sales in the current quarter.

       The Company has no other significant capital commitments.

       Order  backlog  at  December  31,  1995  increased  to  $66,600,000  from
$49,700,000 at January 1, 1995.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO
THE QUARTER ENDED JANUARY 1, 1995.

       Net sales for the first  quarter  of fiscal  year 1996  increased  28% to
$35,299,000,  from  $27,657,000  for the first quarter of fiscal year 1995.  The
increase of  $7,642,000  was  primarily  due to higher  volume of  shipments  in
commercial and commercial space products.

       Gross profit increased  $2,199,000 to $9,203,000 for the first quarter of
fiscal year 1996 from  $7,004,000  for the first  quarter of fiscal year 1995 as
the result of higher  sales;  however,  as a percentage  of sales,  gross profit
remained  relatively  constant  at 26% and 25% for the first  quarters of fiscal
years 1996 and 1995, respectively.

       Operating  expenses  for the first  thirteen  weeks of  fiscal  year 1996
increased  $1,042,000,  compared to the corresponding  period of the prior year;
however, operating expense decreased slightly as a percentage of sales.


<PAGE>



       The  effective  tax rates of 42% and 38% in the first  quarters of fiscal
years 1996 and 1995, respectively,  are the combined result of taxes computed on
foreign and domestic income.
