         Diluted shares include the potential dilutive effect of outstanding
convertible preferred stock and stock options. Shares issuable upon exercise of
warrants and conversion of convertible subordinated debentures have been
excluded from the calculation as their effect would be antidilutive.

Note C - Comprehensive Income

         Effective June 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This
Statement requires that all items recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income or loss be reported in a financial statement
that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. This
Statement also requires that an entity classify items of other comprehensive
income or loss by their nature in financial statements.

         The Company's total comprehensive earnings were as follows:

         (Dollars in Thousands)
                                                      Three Months Ended

                                              ---------------   ---------------

Net income                                       $ 1,199           $ 1,005

Other comprehensive income:

      sale securities, net of related taxes           59              (933)

   Foreign currency translation                     (170)              207

         Total comprehensive income              $ 1,088           $   279
                                                 =======           =======

Note D - New Accounting Pronouncements

         During the quarter ended August 29, 1999, the Company adopted the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Statement of Position
("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal Use." SOP 98-1 requires that certain costs related to the
development or purchase of internal-use software be capitalized and amortized
over the estimated useful life of the software. SOP 98-1 also requires that
costs related to the preliminary project stage and
post-implementation/operations stage of an internal-use computer software
development project be expensed as incurred. The adoption of SOP 98-1 did not
have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for
hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 has subsequently been amended by SFAS No. 137,
issued in June, 1999, which delays the effective date for implementation of SFAS
No. 133 until fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
Management is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 133 on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.

Note E - Segment Information

         The Company's individual business units have been aggregated into three
reportable segments: (1) Electromagnetics; (2) Superconducting Materials; and
(3) Refrigeration, on the basis of similar products, processes and economic
circumstances, among other things. The Electromagnetics Segment designs,
manufactures and sells magnet systems and radio frequency ("RF") coils used in
MRI for medical diagnostics. The Superconducting Materials Segment manufactures
and sells superconducting wire principally for the construction of
superconducting MRI magnet systems. The Refrigeration Segment designs, develops,
manufactures and sells refrigeration equipment and refrigerants.

         Intersegment sales and transfers are accounted for as if the sales or
transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices. The Company
evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on operating income
(loss).

INTERMAGNETICS GENERAL CORPORATION

ITEM 2:     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The statements contained in this report that are not historical fact
are "forward-looking statements" that involve various important assumptions,
risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the Company's actual
results for fiscal 2000 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in
such forward-looking statements. These important factors include, without
limitation, the assumptions, risks, and uncertainties set forth herein, as well
as other assumptions, risks, uncertainties and factors disclosed elsewhere in
this report and in the Company's press releases, shareholders' reports and
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly the most
recent annual report on Form 10-K, including but not limited to the Company's
ability to successfully increase its production capacity for MRI magnets and
expand product sales from, and continue manufacturing improvements at, IGC-APD
as well as continued strength and expansion in its core wire and MRI magnet
markets.

         Information for the prior fiscal year has been restated to conform to
the current year's presentation to show the separation of Superconducting
Materials from Electromagnetic Products (formerly Magnetic Products). The
Segment Discussion reflects results before intersegment eliminations.

Consolidated

         During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, net sales were modestly higher
than the first quarter of fiscal 1999, due to increased sales in the
Refrigeration and Electromagnetics Segments, which were somewhat offset by lower
sales of Superconducting Materials. Gross margin rates declined slightly due to
a less favorable product mix and continued reductions in selling prices.

         Internal research and development expenses were 14% lower in the
current quarter compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1999, almost all of
which was due to the termination of the Field Effects division in November 1998.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly due mainly to
reductions in the Refrigeration Segment and the closing of Field Effects.

         Operating income increased 18% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1999, principally due to the previously
mentioned reduction in research and development expenses, as well as reductions
in operating expenses which were the result of the termination of the Field
Effects division and other cost reduction programs.

Segment Discussion

         Electromagnetics Segment - Net sales in this segment increased
approximately 1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to the same period
in fiscal 1999 but, due to continued declines in selling prices and an
unfavorable sales mix, gross margin declined approximately 23%. Operating income
was lower in the current quarter due to the gross margin decline, which was
somewhat offset by the favorable elimination of operating expenses of the Field
Effects division.

         Superconducting Materials Segment - Net sales in this segment increased
37% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 due to increased demand, in particular,
intersegment demand. Sales to external customers declined by about 11%. This,
plus favorable cost experience on a completed contract, led to a substantial
increase in gross margin. Because of this and only a moderate increase in
operating expenses, operating income increased approximately 175% in the current
quarter compared to the same quarter in fiscal 1999.

         Refrigeration Segment - Net sales increased by about 4% (sales to
external customers increased by about 6%) during the quarter, producing slightly
higher gross margin. Substantially reduced selling, general and administrative
expenses (which were somewhat moderated by higher product research and
development) resulted in a 41% decline in the segment's operating loss.


Year 2000 Issues

         The transition to the Year 2000 could potentially affect any computer
system or software application that uses date data. The "Year 2000 Problem"
(sometimes called the "Year 2000 bug" or "millennium bug") refers to the fact
that some computer systems store the year portion of dates in two-digit form
identifying 1999 as "99," for example.

State of Readiness:

         The Company recognizes the importance of providing customers with
products that will continue to function correctly during the year 2000 and
beyond. The Company continues to assess the potential impact of the year 2000 on
its internal business systems, products, and operations. The Company's year 2000
initiatives include testing and upgrading significant information technology
systems and facilities; testing and developing upgrades; contacting key vendors
to determine their year 2000 compliance status;


                                       13
<PAGE>

and developing contingency plans. The Company has developed and is implementing
a remediation plan to identify and, if necessary, correct potential year 2000
problems in the following areas:

1.       Products. The Company has implemented a compliance program to test and
         evaluate the year 2000 readiness of the material products that it
         currently manufactures and sells. The Company has determined that all
         material products (superconducting magnets, radio frequency imaging
         coils, superconducting wire and cable, cryogenic equipment, and
         refrigeration systems) are year 2000 compliant. However, as many of the
         Company's products are complex, interact with or incorporate
         third-party products, and operate on computer systems that are not
         under the Company's control, there can be no assurance that the Company
         has identified all of the year 2000 problems with its current products.

2.       Computer Systems. The Company has completed the evaluation of all
         desktop and server systems for the existence of year 2000 problems
         using commercial evaluation software. The majority of our non-compliant
         desktop and server systems have been replaced or upgraded to become
         year 2000 compliant. The small number of remaining non-compliant
         desktop and server systems will be corrected and tested before the end
         of November, 1999.

3.       Business Software. The Company's assessment and remediation plan has
         identified that several of the present business systems are not year
         2000 compliant. The Company has had an ongoing project to install an
         enterprise-wide resource planning ("ERP") system designed to integrate
         all business entities. This project began in 1996. Three of the
         Company's business units have implemented the year 2000 compliant ERP
         system, and a fourth business unit is expected to be implemented by the
         end of October, 1999. The remaining business units have rendered their
         existing business systems year 2000 compliant and will be implementing
         the ERP system late in fiscal 2000.

4.       Non-Information Technology Systems. Non-information technology systems
         include facilities and communications systems such as HVAC, telephone,
         voice-mail, and security systems, as well as machine tools and controls
         used in the manufacturing process. The Company has completed its
         evaluation of these systems and has developed replacement or upgrade
         plans to correct the problems incurred. Non-compliant phone and
         voice-mail systems at two locations will be replaced by the end of
         October, 1999.

5.       Business Partners. The Company is in the process of identifying and
         assessing the year 2000 readiness of key vendors that are believed to
         be significant to the Company's business operations. Beginning in 1998,
         the Company requested year 2000 readiness information from all its
         vendors. The Company is now in the process of following up with key
         vendors.


                                       14
<PAGE>
         As part of this effort, the Company has distributed questionnaires
         relating to year 2000 compliance to its significant vendors. In
         addition, the Company has begun to follow-up and monitor the year 2000
         compliance progress of significant vendors that indicate that they are
         not year 2000 compliant. The Company has completed the majority of its
         assessment of third-party risk and will continue to monitor the year
         2000 compliance status of our critical vendors.

Costs:

         The Company estimates that the total cost of its assessment and
remediation plan will amount to approximately $2.2 million, which is being
funded through operating cash flows. Included in this amount is approximately $2
million for the replacement of the business systems described above, which is
being capitalized because its purchase and implementation was primarily related
to increases in system functionality. Approximately $1.9 million of the expected
total cost has been expended to date.

Contingency Plans:

         The Company is developing contingency plans that will allow its primary
business operations to continue despite disruptions due to year 2000 problems.
These plans may include identifying and securing other suppliers, increasing
inventories, and modifying production facilities and schedules. As the Company
continues to evaluate the year 2000 readiness of its business systems,
facilities, products, and significant vendors, it will modify and adjust its
contingency plans as may be required.

Risks of the Company's Year 2000 Issues:

         While the Company is attempting to minimize any negative consequences
arising from the year 2000 issue, there can be no assurance that year 2000
problems will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's business,
operations, or financial condition. While the Company expects that upgrades to
its internal business systems will be completed in a timely fashion, there can
be no assurance that the Company will not encounter unexpected costs or delays.
Despite its efforts to ensure that its material current products are year 2000
compliant, the Company may see an increase in warranty and other claims,
especially those related to Company products that incorporate, or operate using,
third-party software or hardware. If any of the Company's significant vendors
experience business disruptions due to year 2000 issues, there may also be a
material adverse effect on the Company. There can be no assurance that the
Company will not incur material costs in defending or bringing lawsuits related
to year 2000 issues. In addition, if any year 2000 issues are identified, there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain qualified personnel
to remedy such issues. Any unexpected costs or delays arising from the year 2000
issue could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's business,
operations, and financial condition in amounts that cannot be reasonably
estimated at this time.


                                       15

Liquidity and Capital Commitments

         During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company generated cash of
$10,890,000 from operating activities. This was accomplished through higher
earnings, substantial improvements in accounts receivable and inventories and
the collection of more than $1 million in tax refunds. The cash generated was
principally used to purchase $909,000 of machinery and equipment, repay
short-term bank borrowings of $4,850,000 and increase cash.

         The Company's capital resource commitments as of August 29, 1999
consist principally of capital equipment commitments of approximately
$1,600,000, a loan guarantee of approximately $2,000,000 and $4,750,000 due
before March 31, 2000 for the purchase of rights from the Company's former
European joint venture. The Company has an unsecured line of credit of
$25,000,000 which expires in November, 2000, of which none was in use on August
29, 1999. The Company believes that it will have sufficient working capital to
meet its needs for the foreseeable future. However, pursuit of large-scale
applications in superconductivity and new refrigerants may require the Company
to seek additional financing in future years.

ITEM 3:           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company's exposure to market risk through derivative financial
instruments and other financial instruments, such as investments in short-term
marketable securities and long-term debt, is not material. The financial
instruments of the Company that are interest rate dependent are revenue bonds
issued in connection with the acquisition of certain land, building and
equipment, an unsecured line of credit and a mortgage payable. The Company
manages interest rates through various methods within contracts. For the revenue
bonds, the Company negotiated variable rates with the option to set fixed rates.
On its mortgage payable, the Company negotiated an "interest rate swap"
agreement that, in effect, fixes the rate at 6.88%. With respect to its
unsecured line of credit, the Company may elect to apply interest rates to
borrowings under the line which relate to either the London Interbank Offered
Rate or prime, whichever is most favorable. The Company's objective in managing
its exposure to changes in interest rates is to limit the impact of changing
rates on earnings and cash flow and to lower its borrowing costs.

         The Company does not believe that its exposure to commodity and foreign
exchange risk are material.
