REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Participants and Administrator of the
International Rectifier Corporation Retirement Savings Plan:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the International Rectifier Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan")
at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, which require that we plan and perform the audits
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes at end of year is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the
responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of the International Rectifier Corporation
Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.
GENERAL
International Rectifier Corporation (the "Company") established the Plan on
April 1, 1988. The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA"), as amended.
ELIGIBILITY
An employee is eligible to participate in the Plan on the first day of the
payroll period which falls immediately after the later of (i) the date
which is 90 days after his or her date of hire, or (ii) the date on which
he or she attains age 18.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Effective January 1, 1998, participants may elect to make contributions up
to 15% of their pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan. For the
Plan year ended December 31, 1997, participants were permitted to make
contributions up to 20% of their pretax annual compensation. Participants
may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified
defined benefit or contribution plans. The Company contributes an amount
equal to 150% of the first $200 of the participant's contribution, 50% of
the next $1,400, and 25% of the next $800 in a Plan year. The aggregate
matching contribution made by the Company shall not exceed $1,200 per
participant in a Plan year. In addition to the Company's matching
contribution, the Board of Directors may make annual discretionary
contributions in the form of cash or Company stock. For the years ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, no discretionary matching contributions were
authorized by the Board.
VESTING
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the
Company's matching and discretionary contributions plus actual earnings
thereon.

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions
and allocations of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings.
Allocations are based on participant contributions or account balances, as
defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that
can be provided from the participant's vested account.
INVESTMENT PROGRAMS
The trustee for the Plan is Fidelity Management Trust Company. All accounts
are held in trust funds and invested in accordance with the terms of the
Plan and investment options elected by Plan participants.
Participants can allocate their contributions and account balances to any
or all of the investment fund options. Participants may transfer their
account balances, or a portion thereof, from one fund to another.
PARTICIPANT LOANS
The Plan allows participants to borrow from their accounts a minimum of
$1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their
account balance. Loan transactions are treated as transfers between
Investment Fund and the Participant Loan Fund. Loan terms range from 1-5
years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans
are collateralized by the balance in the participant's account and bear
interest at a rate commensurate with current prevailing rates. Principal
and interest is paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions.
BENEFIT PAYMENTS
Upon termination of service, a participant will receive a lump-sum amount
equal to the value of the participant's account, as defined by the Plan,
unless the participant chooses to leave the account balance in the Plan.
Benefits are recorded when paid.
2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the
accrual method of accounting.

RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts in the statement of changes
in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Plan provides for various investment options in mutual funds and other
securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as
interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that
changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants'
account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets
available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available
for benefits.
INVESTMENTS
The Plan's investments in shares of registered investment company mutual
funds and the Company stock are valued at the last quoted sales price on
the last business day of the year. Investments in commingled trust funds
are valued at estimated fair values according to methods selected in good
faith by the trustee. Participant loans are valued at the unpaid amount of
the loan which is estimated to approximate fair value.
Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a trade date basis. The
basis for all securities sold is determined by average cost. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net
assets available for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in fair
value of its investments, which consists of the realized gains or losses
and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on those investments.

4. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Certain of the Plan's investments are shares of mutual funds managed by
Fidelity Management Trust Company, the trustee of the Plan, as defined by
the Plan agreement. Therefore, these transactions qualify as
party-in-interest transactions for which a statutory exemption exists. Fees
paid by the Plan for investment management services were nominal for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998.
The Company also qualifies as a party-in-interest and absorbs certain
administrative expenses of the Plan. The Company paid approximately $32,000
and $25,000 of administrative expenses on behalf of the Plan for the years
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Such transactions with the
Company qualify for a statutory exemption.

5. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. The account balances
of the participants affected by a partial or complete termination of the
Plan are nonforfeitable and will be determined as of the termination date.
6. TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN
The Plan has obtained a favorable tax determination letter from the
Internal Revenue Service dated February 26, 1998. The Plan administrator
and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is
currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").
Under the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Code, contributions to the
Plan are not taxable until distributed to the participants.
