                  INTERNATIONAL RECTIFIER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


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 September 30,  1996 and the consolidated results
    of operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended September 30,
    1996  and 1995.   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 three month period ended  September
    30, 1996  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, 1996.

    Certain  reclassifications have been made to  previously reported amounts to
    conform with the 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 514,000 and
    778,600 were utilized in the computation of earnings per share for the three
    month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

3.  INVENTORIES

    Inventories  are stated at  the lower of cost  (principally first-in, first-
    out) or market.  Inventories at September 30, 1996  (unaudited) and June 30,
    1996 were comprised of the following (in thousands):

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996 decreased 8.6% to 
$115.2 million from $126.1 million in the prior year period. The Company's 
revenue decrease reflected weak industry conditions and aggressive  efforts 
by distributors to reduce their inventory levels. Distributors accounted for 
approximately 30% of fiscal 1996 annual revenues. Changes in foreign exchange 
rates negatively impacted revenues by approximately $2.4 million in the three 
months ended September 30, 1996. Revenues in the current quarter included 
$4.9 million of net patent royalties, versus $3.3 million in the prior year 
period.

September-quarter gross profit fell to $38.8 million (33.7% of revenues) 
versus $47.3 million (37.5% of revenues) in the comparable year-ago  quarter. 
Gross profit margins reflected lower dollar volumes, the effect of meeting 
competitive price moves in the current quarter, and the impact of price 
concessions on International Rectifier products held in inventory by 
distributors.

September-quarter selling and administrative expense was $26.2 million (22.7% 
of revenues) versus $23.2 million (18.4% of revenues) in the comparable 
year-ago quarter. The Company's current-year spending ratio reflected 
lower-than-expected revenues. September-quarter selling and administrative 
expense was slightly lower than the immediately preceding quarter ended June 
30, 1996.

In the quarter ended September, the Company's research and development 
expenditures increased to $8.0 million (7.0% of revenues) compared to $5.7 
million  (4.5% of revenues) in the comparable  prior year period.  The 
Company's research  and development program 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 High Voltage Control ICs 
and power products that work in combination with HEXFETs and IGBTs to improve 
system performance.

Net interest  expense was $0.3 million  compared to net interest  income of 
$0.5 million in the prior year period, reflecting increased interest expense 
incurred on higher average debt balances.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates  had no material effect on net 
income in the three month period ending September 30, 1996, and negatively 
impacted net income by $0.2 million in the prior year period.


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 46%  of annual revenues  in the first half  and 54% 
in  the second half of its fiscal year. Historical averages are not necessarily
indicative of future results.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 1996, the Company  maintained cash and cash equivalent 
balances of $32.5 million and short term investments of $20.0 million.   In 
addition, the Company had established $74.3 million of domestic and foreign 
revolving lines of credit, against  which $19.6 million had  been borrowed.  
Based  on covenant and collateral limitations, the Company had $48.0 million 
available for borrowing at September 30, 1996.  Additionally, the Company had 
at its disposal $20.0 million of  unused bank  term-loan  facilities  and  
$18.4  million  of  unused  capital equipment credit  lines.  At September  
30, 1996, the Company  had made purchase commitments for capital equipment of 
approximately $19.5 million.


The Company intends to fund operations and planned capital expenditures 
through cash and cash equivalents on hand, short-term investments, 
anticipated cash flow from operations, and funds from existing credit 
facilities. However, the Company may also consider the use of funds from 
other external sources including, but not limited to, public or private 
offerings of debt or equity.
