              INTERNATIONAL RECTIFIER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                DECEMBER 31, 1994


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited,
    however, they contain all normal recurring accruals which, in the opinion of
    management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
    position of the Company at December 31, 1994 and the consolidated results of
    operations and cash flows for the six month periods ended December 31, 1994
    and 1993.  It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim
    dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end.
    The results of operations for the six month period ended December 31, 1994
    are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
    year.

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include footnotes
    and certain financial presentations normally required under generally
    accepted accounting principles and, therefore, should be read in conjunction
    with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1994.

    Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial
    statements to conform to current year presentation.

2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings by the weighted average
    number of common and common stock equivalents outstanding.  Stock options
    outstanding under stock option plans are considered common stock
    equivalents.  Common stock equivalents for stock options of 256,000 and
    92,000 were utilized in the computation of earnings per share for the three
    month periods ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

3.  INVENTORIES

    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (principally first-in, first-
    out) or market.  Inventories at December 31, 1994 (unaudited) and June 30,
    1994 were comprised of the following (in thousands):

5.  ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

    The Company and Rachelle Laboratories, Inc. ("Rachelle"), its discontinued
    pharmaceutical subsidiary, have been named among several hundred entities as
    potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") under the provisions of the
    Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980
    ("CERCLA"), in connection with the United States Environmental Protection
    Agency's ("EPA") investigation of the disposal of allegedly hazardous
    substances at a major superfund site in Monterey Park, California (the "OII
    site").  The EPA advised the Company on October 31, 1994 that it is in the
    process of reassessing the allocation of responsibility for clean-up costs
    in preparation for a new settlement offer.  When the new settlement offer is
    received from the EPA, the Company may be able to delimit the range of
    possible loss (if known) or state that no range of loss can reasonably be
    determined.  If a range of possible loss is determined, the minimum amount
    (if no amount within the range is more likely) will then be accrued.

    On October 11, 1994, the Company received a letter from the Department of
    Ecology of the State of Washington notifying the Company of its finding that
    the Company is a potentially liable person for alleged PCE
    (perchloroethylene) contamination of ground water and real property in
    Yakima County, Washington.  The Company is


                                       6

<PAGE>

    unable at this time to estimate its potential liability, if any, in this
    matter.

    The Company received a letter dated September 9, 1994 from the State of
    California Department of Toxic Substances Control stating that the Company
    may be a potentially responsible party for the deposit of hazardous
    substances at a facility in Whittier, California.  The Company is unable at
    this time to estimate its potential liability, if any, in this matter.

6.  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    Certain of the Company's fundamental power MOSFET patents have been
    subjected, and continue to be subjected, to reexamination in the United
    States Patent and Trademark Office ("PTO").  If the patentability of the
    Company's patents involved in such proceedings is not confirmed, loss of the
    patents would allow competitors to use currently patented features of the
    Company's MOS transistor technology without liability for infringement of
    those patents.  On December 15, 1994, the PTO advised the Company of its
    intent to confirm the patentability of U.S. patent 4,705,759, one of the
    Company's MOSFET patents under reexamination.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1994 increased 30% to $102.8
million from $79.1 million in the prior year period.  Revenues for the six month
period ended December 31, 1994 increased to $195.1 million from $152.2 million
in the previous year.  The Company's revenue increase reflected rising demand
for the Company's power MOSFETs and related devices, which resulted in a 32%
increase in revenues from these products.  Revenues from the thyristor and
rectifier product lines increased 19% which reflected unseasonally strong demand
in Europe.  Changes in foreign exchange rates positively impacted revenues by
approximately $2.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 1994.
Revenues in the current quarter included $2.3 million of net patent royalties
unchanged from the prior year period.

Gross profit for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1994 was
34.8% and 34.5% of revenues ($35.8 million and $67.3 million), respectively,
versus 32.4% and 32.2% of revenues ($25.6 million and $49.0 million) in the
respective prior year periods.  The increased margin reflected greater
manufacturing volume and efficiencies in both the Company's growth and mature
products and a more favorable product mix.

In the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1994, selling and
administrative expense was 19.4% and 19.7% of revenues ($19.9 million and $38.4
million), respectively, versus 21.2% and 21.8% of revenues ($16.8 million and
$33.1 million) in the respective prior year periods.  The decreased percentage
reflects the Company's continued commitment to reducing operating expenses as a
percentage of revenues.

In the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1994, the Company's
research and development expenditures increased to $4.9 million (4.8% of
revenues) and $9.1 million (4.6% of revenues), compared to $4.0 million (5.0% of
revenues) and $7.8 million (5.1% of revenues) in the respective prior year
periods.  The Company's research and development program was, and continues to
be, focused on the advancement and diversification of the HEXFET product line,
the expansion of the related IGBT products and the development of Control ICs
and power products that work in combination with HEXFETs and IGBTs to improve
system performance.

Interest expense (net) in the three and six month periods ended December 31,
1994 decreased $0.3 million and $0.1 million from the respective prior year
periods.  The decrease was due to approximately $0.4 million in interest income
earned in the current year on funds received from a November 1994 offering of
the Company's common stock, partially offset by increased interest expense in
the current period on higher debt balances.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a material effect on net
income in the three and six month periods ending December 31, 1994.

SEASONALITY

The Company has experienced moderate seasonality in its business in recent
years.  On average over the past three years, the Company has reported
approximately 47% of annual revenues in the first half and 53% in the second
half of its fiscal year.

December 31, 1994.  In addition, at December 31, 1994 the Company had available
$26.6 million of unused lines of credit for capital equipment, $42.6 million of
short-term investments, $34.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and had made
purchase commitments of approximately $31.6 million for capital equipment.

The Company intends to spend approximately $75.0 million (of which $16.9 million
has been spent through December 31, 1994) to expand wafer fabrication capacity
at its HEXFET America facility, most of which is expected to be expended in
fiscal 1995.  In addition, the Company intends to spend approximately $35.0
million (of which $22.6 million had been spent in the six months ended December
31, 1994) to expand and maintain assembly capacity, to enhance its Management
Information Systems infrastructure and to maintain its existing facilities.  The
Company intends to fund these capital expenditures and meet its cash
requirements for the foreseeable future through cash and cash equivalents and
short-term investments on hand, anticipated cash flows from operations, funds
available from existing credit facilities, and with the proceeds of the public
stock offering referred to in the next paragraph.

In November 1994 the Company completed a public stock offering of 4.5 million
shares of common stock at $22.50 per share.  Net proceeds of approximately $97
million will be used principally to expand wafer fabrication capacity at HEXFET
America, to repay debt and for general corporate purposes.  In the three months
ended December 31, 1994, approximately $12 million in proceeds were used for
wafer fabrication expansion and $22.5 million were used to repay amounts
outstanding under the Company's domestic revolving credit facility.  In January
1995, $4.3 million was used to repay a domestic property mortgage.
