1.   Significant Accounting Policies

     The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are based
     in part on estimates and include such adjustments (consisting solely of
     normal, recurring adjustments) which management believes are necessary for
     a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at November 30,
     1996 and May 31, 1996, and the results of its operations for the three
     month and six month periods ended November 30, 1996 and December 2, 1995.
     The consolidated financial statements and related notes are condensed and
     have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles applicable to interim periods; consequently, they do not include
     all generally accepted accounting disclosures required for complete annual
     financial statements.  These condensed consolidated financial statements
     should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
     thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
     ended May 31, 1996.

     The results of operations for the period presented are not necessarily
     indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.  Certain
     prior year items have been reclassified to conform to the current year
     presentation.

     The foregoing unaudited pro forma results reflect three months and six
     months amortization of goodwill in the amount of $4,790,000, resulting from
     the acquisition of CSI.  The Company has determined that the goodwill has
     an estimated 12-year life and, for purposes of the pro forma adjustments, a
     12-year amortization period has been used.


4.   Restructuring Charges

     During the first and second quarters of the current fiscal year, the
     Company reduced its workforce by 109 and 22 positions, respectively, in
     response to the steep downturn in the semiconductor equipment market.  This
     workforce reduction represented approximately 26% of the Company's
     worldwide employment.  A restructuring charge of $262,000 was recorded in
     the first quarter and $296,000 was recorded in the second quarter for costs
     associated with the consolidation of certain facilities and for additional
     severance related expenses.

     In the first and second quarters of the prior fiscal year, restructuring
     charges of $83,000 and $273,000, respectively, were recorded for expenses
     associated with the sale of the Autoclave Engineers Group, which was sold
     in September, 1995.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Unit
Instruments, Inc.'s condensed consolidated financial statements and related
notes included herein.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 2,
1995

Sales from continuing operations for the second fiscal quarter ended November
30, 1996 decreased 49% to $8,002,000 from $15,546,000 for the comparable prior
year period.  This sales decline resulted from lower industry-wide semiconductor
equipment orders and shipments.  Semiconductor fabrication tools are the primary
application for the Company's mass flow controllers (MFCs) and the Company's
primary channel of distribution is through the manufacturers of semiconductor
processing equipment (OEMs).  These OEMs have reported lower sales and a
precipitous decline in new orders over the past several quarters.  In addition,
the OEMs have implemented aggressive inventory reduction programs that have
further reduced demand for the Company's products.  Also impacted during the
quarter were sales of gas distribution systems through CSI because of reduced
capital spending by a major semiconductor manufacturer, which represents a
substantial portion of CSI's business.  The decline in industry activity levels
impacted both the Company's domestic and international sales for the period.

Gross profit margin declined to 5% for the current quarter from 40% for the same
quarter last year.  The sharply lower gross profit margin primarily resulted
from the corresponding rapid and steep decline in the Company's sales.  This
resulted in under utilization of manufacturing facilities and reduced labor
efficiency, despite a large reduction in the Company's direct labor workforce.
In addition to these factors, gross profit margin was negatively impacted by
higher material content to sales and additional warranty expense.

Selling, general and administrative ("S,G&A") expenses decreased to $3,105,000
in the second quarter of the current fiscal year from $3,745,000 in the
comparable prior year period.  As a percent to sales, S,G&A increased to 39%
from 24% last year.  The reduction in expenses resulted from cost control
measures implemented in response to the sharp decline in sales, coupled with
selected layoffs of indirect employees.  In addition, during the second quarter
of the prior fiscal year, S,G&A included expenses of $265,000 relating to the
former corporate office in Erie, Pennsylvania.  This office was closed during
the second quarter of the prior year.

During the first quarter of the current fiscal year, the Company reduced its
workforce by 109 positions in response to the steep downturn in sales and
recorded a restructuring charge for severance costs.  In the second quarter, a
restructuring charge was taken for the elimination of an additional 22 positions
and the consolidation of the Tempe, Arizona service center into the Chandler,
Arizona facility of CSI.  The current quarter charge for these actions was
$296,000.  In the prior year's second quarter, a restructuring of $290,000 was
recorded for the closure of the Erie, Pennsylvania corporate office and other
related expenses.

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
Research, development and engineering expenses increased 31% to $1,072,000, or
13.3% of sales, for the current quarter, from $821,000, or 5.3% of sales, for
the comparable prior year period.  These higher expenditures reflect increased
new product development charges to support current and anticipated future sales.
Despite the current industry downturn, the Company believes that the continued
timely development of new products and enhancements to its existing products is
essential to maintaining its competitive position within the industry.
Accordingly, the Company anticipates that such expenses will continue at
approximately the same level in subsequent periods.

Interest income and interest expense were essentially unchanged for the
comparable periods.  A domestic bank borrowing was paid off during the second
quarter of the prior fiscal year that reduced interest expense compared to the
current period.

A loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $3,944,000 was recorded
for the current period, as compared to income from continuing operations of
$1,578,000 for the corresponding prior year period.  Income tax benefit was
provided for at a 32% rate for the second quarter, compared to a provision of
39% for the prior year.  The tax rate in both periods is unfavorably impacted by
the non-deductibility of goodwill amortization.

The Company sold its Autoclave Engineers Group on September 22, 1995 and
recorded a gain on sale of $1,454,000, net of tax provision of $1,011,000,
during the second quarter of the prior year. In addition, income from this
discontinued operation of $146,000 was realized in the prior year period.

A net loss of $2,658,000, or $.61 per share, was recorded for the current fiscal
second quarter as compared to net income of $2,568,000, or $.58 per share, for
the prior year period.


SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 2, 1995

Sales from continuing operations for the six-month period ending November 30,
1996 decreased 30% to $21,290,000, from $30,569,000 for the comparable prior
year period.  This sales decline is attributable to the industry downturn that
started approximately the middle of 1996 and intensified as the year progressed.
Since the Company primarily sells to the manufacturers of semiconductor
processing equipment; its sales are directly related to activity levels within
this industry segment.  In addition, the Company's major customers have been
aggressively reducing levels of inventory, which has had a further negative
impact on sales.  Lastly, the Company has a very limited backlog, because of a
short production cycle, which accentuates fluctuations in order rates.  Sales of
gas distribution systems, through CSI, were down sharply for the six month
period because of reduced capital spending by a major semiconductor
manufacturer, which represents a significant portion of CSI's business.  The
downturn in the semiconductor equipment market has been worldwide and, as such,
has negatively impacted both domestic and international sales of the Company.

Gross profit margins decreased to 23% for the current six month period from 40%
last year, primarily because of the rapid and steep decline in the Company's
sales.  This, in turn, has resulted in under utilization of fixed overhead and
reduced labor efficiency.  In addition to these factors, 

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
gross profit margin was adversely impacted by higher material usage and
additional warranty expense.

Selling, general and administrative (S,G&A) expenses decreased 14% to $6,364,000
for the six month period, but climbed as percent of sales to 30% for the current
period from 24% last year because of the sharp decline in the Company's sales.
Lower S,G&A expenses for the current period primarily resulted from closure,
last fiscal year, of the Company's Erie, Pennsylvania corporate office.  For the
prior year's six month period, expenses associated with the former corporate
office were $822,000.  Also contributing to lower expense levels for the current
period were certain cost reduction actions and select layoffs of indirect
employees.

A restructuring charge of $558,000 was incurred during the first half of the
current fiscal year for severance related expenses and costs associated with the
consolidation of facilities.  In last year's comparable period, a restructuring
charge of $373,000 was recorded for employee severance expense, legal fees and
other expenses associated with the closure of the Erie corporate office.

Research, development and engineering expenses increased 24% for the comparative
six month period reflecting new product development efforts and higher staffing
levels in this area.  The Company believes that the continued timely development
of new products and enhancements to its existing products is essential to
maintaining its competitive position within the industry.  Accordingly, the
Company anticipates that such expenses will continue at approximately the same
level for subsequent periods.

Interest income increased to $410,000 from $278,000 the prior year because of
higher cash balances resulting from the divestiture of Autoclave Engineers Group
in fiscal 1996.  Interest expense declined for the comparative period because of
lower levels of borrowing outstanding as all domestic credit facilities were
repaid during the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.

A loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $3,759,000 was
sustained in the current six month period, primarily because of the precipitous
decline in the Company's sales level.  For last year's comparable period, income
from continuing operations before income taxes was $2,854,000.  The tax benefit
for the current period was provided for at a 32% rate versus a tax provision of
41% for the prior year period.  The tax rate in both periods was negatively
effected by the non-deductibility of goodwill amortization.

The Company sold its Autoclave Engineers Group on September 22, 1995 and
recorded a gain on sale of  $1,454,000, net of tax provision of $1,011,000,
during the second quarter of the prior fiscal year.  In addition, income from
this discontinued operation of $750,000 was recorded in the prior year.

A net loss of $2,556,000, or $.58 per share, was recorded for the current six
month period as compared to net income of $3,888,000, or $.87 per share, for the
comparable prior year period.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

On June 3, 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of CSI for
$1,200,000 cash and 289,000 shares of Company stock valued at $3,977,000.  Prior
to the acquisition, the Company had advanced cash to CSI of $1,025,000.

Cash flow was a negative $482,000 for the six month period ended November 30,
1996.  The negative cash flow was considerably less than the accounting loss of
$2,556,000 for the period largely due to substantial net reductions of accounts
receivable and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in inventory, net of inventory
acquired with the CSI purchase.  However, the positive impact of the reduction
in receivables and inventories was partially offset by cash used to reduce
accounts payable and the net cash used to acquire CSI.

Accounts receivable declined from $10,179,000 as of May 31, 1996 to $5,870,000
as of November 30, 1996 due to vigorous collection efforts and a decline in
replacement receivables due to lower sales.  Income taxes payable of $1,141,000,
as of May 31, 1996, were eliminated and replaced with income taxes refundable of
$859,000, as of November 30, 1996, due to the loss incurred for the period and
the capability to deduct such losses against prior years' income via tax loss
carryback provisions.

Cash and cash equivalents were $14,090,000 as of November 30, 1996.  The
Company's only debt outstanding is a Japanese Yen denominated credit facility
through the Company's Japanese subsidiary for approximately $1,800,000.  During
the prior fiscal year, the Company entered into a $5 million unsecured credit
facility with a major domestic bank.  The Company can use any portion of the
credit facility for letters of credit and has utilized approximately $2 million
for such purpose.  No borrowings were outstanding at the end of the current
quarter under this credit facility.  The Company expects that its current cash
resources will be adequate to fund the Company's anticipated near-term capital
requirements.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current
expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  These forward-
looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company will not lose a
significant customer or customers or experience further reductions of demand or
rescheduling of purchase orders that have occurred because of the severe
downturn in the semiconductor equipment industry, that the Company's products
will remain accepted within their respective markets and will not be replaced by
new technology, that competitive conditions within the Company's markets will
not change materially or adversely, that the Company will be successful in
integrating the operations of its Control Systems, Inc. subsidiary with the rest
of its operations, and that the Company will retain key technical and management
personnel, that the Company's forecasts will accurately anticipate market
demand, and that there will be no material adverse change in the Company's
operations or business.  Assumptions related to the foregoing involve judgments
with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market
conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are beyond the control
of the Company.  Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying
the forward-looking statements are 

                                       12
<PAGE>
 
reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there
can be no assurance that the results contemplated in forward-looking statements
will be realized. In addition, the business and operations of the Company are
within a single industrial segment and are dependent on a few large customers.
This concentration on a single market and limited customer base subject the
Company to substantial risks which increase the uncertainty inherent in such
forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent
in the forward-looking information included herein, the inclusion of such
information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company, or any
other person, that the objectives or plans for the Company will be achieved.
