4) In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be
adopted on December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be
required to change the method currently used to compute earnings per
share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements
for calculating primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect of
stock options will be excluded. Basic EPS calculated in accordance
with Statement No. 128 would be the same net income per share for the
third quarter ended September 28, 1997 and for the third quarter
ended September 29, 1996. For the nine months ended September 28,
1997 and September 29, 1996, net income per share would be greater by
$.02 and $.04 per share, respectively. Diluted earnings per share for
the periods reported approximates net income per share as reported.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table presents unaudited results. The Company believes that all
necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have
been included in the amounts shown below to state fairly the selected quarterly
information when read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements included elsewhere herein. Interim results are based on fiscal
quarters of thirteen weeks in duration ending on the last Sunday of each
quarter. The operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of
results for any subsequent quarter or the full fiscal year. All tabular
information is provided in thousands, except per share amounts and percentages.

Sales
The Company's quarterly operating results have and will vary because
of a number of factors, including the timing and success of new product
introductions, changes in product mix, volume, timing and shipment of orders,
fluctuations in manufacturing productivity, overcapacity in the industry and
effects on pricing. Quarter-to-quarter sales comparisons are also subject to
customer order patterns and seasonality. Because the Company's products are
available from both the Company and distributors, the customer's decision to buy
from a distributor or directly from the Company can affect Zilog's quarterly
sales and profitability. See "Factors That May Affect Future Results" for a
discussion of additional considerations which may affect the Company's future
operating results.

Sales decreased 4.7% for the third quarter of 1997 from the
comparable quarter of 1996, and decreased 12.2% for the nine month period ended
September 28, 1997 compared to the same period of 1996. When compared to the
third quarter of 1996, sales decreased primarily because of lower television
controller sales in the consumer division. Overall unit volume has increased in
the third quarter of 1997 when compared to the same quarter of 1996. However,
unit volume growth was offset by lower average selling prices. The Company
currently anticipates that revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1997
will be comparable to those generated during the three months ended September
28, 1997.
During the third quarter of 1997, over-capacity in the industry
continued to exert price pressure on many of the Company's product lines. The
Company is uncertain for how long this trend may continue. Domestic sales
accounted for 44.9% of revenues in the third quarter of 1997, representing an
increase from the third quarter of 1996 when domestic sales accounted for 37.7%
of revenues.

</TABLE>
The Company's cost of sales represents the cost of its wafer
fabrication, assembly and test operations. Cost of sales fluctuates, depending
on manufacturing productivity, product mix, equipment utilization and
depreciation. Cost of sales increased as a percentage of sales in the third
quarter of 1997 to 66.6% from 64.5% in the same quarter of 1996. For the nine
months ending September 28, 1997, cost of sales increased to 64.3% from 57.2%
compared with the same period of 1996. The increase in the percentage of cost of
sales to sales for both the third quarter of 1997 and for the year to date was
attributable to additional depreciation expenses, lower average selling prices
and a shift in product mix.

Research and development expenditures increased during the third
quarter of 1997 in absolute dollars and as a percentage of sales when compared
to the same period of 1996. The increase in research and development dollars for
the third quarter of 1997 is primarily attributable to an increase in costs for
outside consulting services associated with new product development.

<PAGE> 9
The Company introduced 12 new products during the quarter. Of these,
eight products were for the consumer market, one product for the
datacommunications market and three products for the computer peripherals
market.
The Company's estimated $50 million capital expenditures budget for
1997 includes investment in a new research facility with the capability of
designing to a .35 micron feature size in mixed signal processes. The Company
believes that achieving commercial production of this process will be important
to continued introduction of new products in its chosen markets. The Company
remains committed to new product development and manufacturing process
technology.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in absolute
dollars and as a percentage of sales during the third quarter of 1997 when
compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales and in absolute dollars for
the quarter is essentially due to higher third quarter 1996 costs associated
with a litigation settlement.

</TABLE>
Other income (expense), net increased to $605 of income in the third
quarter of 1997 from $398 of income for the same period of 1996. The primary
reason for the increase was due to foreign currency translation gains and higher
interest income and earnings on higher levels of short-term investments.
Taxes
The provision for income taxes was 0% and 27.0% for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared to 35.0% for the
same periods of 1996. The lower tax provisions for 1997 are primarily
attributable to a larger impact of tax exempt interest income, foreign earnings
taxed at lower than the U.S. tax rate and the reinstatement of the federal
research and
9
<PAGE> 10
development tax credit on reduced pre-tax earnings. The third quarter of 1997
was impacted by a cumulative adjustment to record the revised lower estimated
tax rate of 27% for the year. In addition, during the third quarter of 1997, the
President signed new legislation into law retroactively reinstating the research
and development credit for 1997, the impact of which was recorded in the quarter
ended September 30, 1997.
Proposed Merger with Texas Pacific Group
On July 21, 1997, the Company announced that it signed an Agreement
and Plan of Merger with TPG Partners II, L.P. ("TPG"). The Agreement provides
that, TPG will acquire substantially all of the common stock, par value $0.01
per share (the "Common Stock") of Zilog. Under the terms of the Agreement, the
owner of each outstanding share of Common Stock can elect either to receive
$25.00 in cash or to retain shares of Common Stock. This election to retain
shares of Common Stock is subject to proration so that upon consummation of the
merger, 400,000 shares of Common Stock will be retained by existing
stockholders, and the balance of such shares will be exchanged for cash.
As a result of the merger, TPG will own approximately 90% of Zilog's
voting common stock and the shares to be retained will represent the remaining
10% of the voting shares. In addition, TPG will own non-voting common stock that
will increase its overall economic interest in Zilog to approximately 93.3%. The
shares to be retained will have an economic interest of approximately 6.7%. It
is not expected that Zilog will have publicly listed shares following the
merger.
The merger, which is subject to completion of the contemplated
financing and other conditions, requires Zilog shareholder and regulatory
approvals. The Agreement provides that Warburg must vote its shares, which
represent approximately 27% of Zilog's current shares outstanding, in favor of
the merger. The Company has filed a Merger Agreement as an Exhibit to its Form
8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 22, 1997.
Year 2000 Expenditures
The Company currently projects that it will spend $1.8 million in
total during 1998 and 1999 to replace old computer systems and applications
programming. These replacements would have been done anyway during this time
period, but this expenditure is expected to resolve all of the so-called "year
2000" computer problems at the Company.
Factors That May Affect Future Results
A number of uncertainties exist that may affect the Company's future
operating results, including effects of the announcement of the planned merger,
uncertain political and general economic conditions, market acceptance of the
Company's new products, the Company's ability to introduce new products and
technologies on a timely basis, changes in product mix or fluctuations in
manufacturing yield that affect the Company's gross margins, and numerous
competitive factors.
10
<PAGE> 11
The present increased activity in mergers and acquisitions in the
electronics marketplace involves Zilog and Zilog's customers. When such mergers
and acquisitions occur at Zilog's customers, there may be some interruption in
customer ordering patterns as inventories are rebalanced, or the historic Zilog
revenue stream with the customer may change significantly as new ownership
redirects marketing priorities.
During 1996, Zilog introduced a total of 48 new products for its
datacommunications, intelligent peripheral controller and consumer product
lines. The success of these new products is dependent on a number of factors,
including the Company's ability to continue to achieve design wins for these
products and the Company's ability to manufacture the products in sufficient
quantities to meet anticipated demand. New products may exhibit technological
defects which may impede market acceptance if defects are not resolved promptly.
The Company believes that a significant portion of its future revenues will come
from these new products. Gross margins for new products are generally higher and
are expected to somewhat offset price reductions in older products.
The Company's operating results will depend, to a significant extent,
on its ability to continue to introduce new products. The success of new product
introductions is dependent on several factors, including proper new product
selection, timely completion and introduction of new product designs,
development of support tools and collateral literature that make complex new
products easy for engineers to understand as well as use, and market acceptance
of customers' end products.
During the third quarter of 1997, Zilog introduced 12 new products.
There can be no assurance that any new products will receive or maintain
substantial market acceptance, nor can there be assurance that the Company will
continue to introduce new products at a similar pace to that established over
the past year.
Operating results could be adversely affected if the Company is
unable to develop and implement new design and process technologies. Design and
process technology advances are extremely complex areas subject to rapid
technological change and significant risk. New product designs must be completed
in time to meet market requirements, and volume production of new products at
acceptable yields must be achieved for business plan operating results to be
realized. New products anticipated from and introduced by Zilog could create
uncertainty in the marketplace and cause customers to defer or alter design wins
or purchasing decisions. Additionally, new products or product enhancements from
competitors of the Company, or significant pricing pressures, could have an
adverse impact on the Company's operating results.
As is typical in the semiconductor industry, the Company has from
time to time experienced lower than anticipated production yields. Operating
results could be adversely affected if any problems occur that make it difficult
to produce the anticipated quantities of commercial product. The Company is also
experiencing certain inflationary pressures in labor and materials. Operating
results could be affected if the Company is unable to pass these cost increases
in labor, raw materials and capital equipment through to the Company's
customers.
11
<PAGE> 12
The Company has used outside wafer foundries and assemblers to supply
a portion of its manufacturing needs, and the Company expects to continue to
rely on one or more wafer foundries and assemblers for a portion of its
manufacturing needs. No assurance can be given that these foundries will not
raise prices or meet expected delivery quantities. In addition, no assurance can
be given that the Company or its outside wafer foundries or assemblers will not
experience production yield problems in the future which could result in an
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. The prolonged failure of
the Company to increase production capacity, obtain wafers or assembly services
from outside suppliers as needed could adversely affect the Company's operating
results.
Certain of the Company's products are incorporated into disk drives,
printers, keyboards and modems. As a result, a slowdown in the demand for
personal computers and related peripherals could adversely affect the Company's
operating results. A significant portion of the Company's sales are to the
consumer electronics markets for use in products such as television sets,
infrared remote controls and telephone answering machines. The consumer
electronics markets are subject to volatile and rapid changes in customer
preferences for electronics products that could adversely impact the Company's
results.
Because of the foregoing, as well as other factors affecting the
Company's operating results, past financial performance should not be considered
to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use
historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. In
addition, the Company participates in a highly dynamic industry that may result
in significant volatility of Zilog's common stock price.

increased slightly to $35,476 in the third quarter of 1997 from $35,154 in the
same quarter of 1996. Inventory levels decreased to $32,115 from $36,150 due to
the Company carrying less raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods.

<PAGE> 13
The Company expects to make total capital additions in the range of
$40-$45 million in 1997. These expenditures will primarily be used for the
design, construction and equipping of the Company's wafer fabrication and
research facility in Nampa, Idaho and other engineering capital expenditures.
The expansion will provide increased production capacity and research
facilities.
The Company believes its current cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investment balances, together with funds expected to be generated
from operations, will provide adequate cash to fund the Company's anticipated
liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. The Company may also use
bank borrowings and capital leases, depending on the terms available. The
Company's cash requirements in the future may also be financed by a combination
of additional equity or debt financing.
