Non Cash investing/financing activities:

In December 1998, the Company sold and concurrently leased back its main 
facility property (land and building). As a result of the sale for $11.0 
million (which includes a $2.750 million note receivable) a deferred gain of 
approximately $8.0 million was recorded and the building component was leased 
back under a capital lease, whereby leased building and capital lease 
obligation were recorded at approximately $6.270 million.

            NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             JANUARY 31, 1999 AND 1998

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein 
     have been prepared by the management of Televideo, Inc. (the "Company"), 
     without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities 
     and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures 
     normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with 
     generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, 
     pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes 
     the disclosures which are made are adequate to make the information 
     presented not misleading. Further, the interim condensed consolidated 
     financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all 
     adjustments (which included only normal recurring adjustments) necessary 
     to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of 
     and for the periods indicated.

     It is suggested that these interim condensed consolidated financial 
     statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the 
     notes thereto included in the Company's Report on Form 10-K for the 
     fiscal year ended October 31, 1998.

     The results of operations for the three-month period ended January 31, 
     1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for 
     the entire fiscal year ending October 31, 1999.

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the 
     accounts of the Company and certain of its majority owned subsidiaries, 
     after elimination of inter-company accounts and transactions.  The 
     Company's investments in joint ventures in the Commonwealth of 
     Independent States, some of which represent a majority interest in the 
     joint venture, are not consolidated due to the lack of reliable 
     financial information from the entity.  Such investments are carried at 
     cost.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
     accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
     and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
     the financial statements, as well as revenues and expenses during the
     reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original
     maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     INVENTORIES

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Costs are
     computed on a currently adjusted standard basis (which approximates
     average cost) for both finished goods and work-in-process and includes
     material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs.  The cost of purchased
     parts is determined on a first-in, first-out basis.  Amounts shown are
     net of reserves for obsolescence of $695,000 and $646,000 in 1999 and
     1998, respectively:

     PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

     Depreciation and amortization are provided over the estimated useful lives
     of the assets using both straightline and accelerated methods.

               Building                           40 years
               Production equipment               1-10 years
               Office furniture                   1-10 years

2.   LETTER OF CREDIT AGREEMENT:

     The Company has one letter of credit agreement with the bank whereby the
     bank will issue up to a total of $1.0 million of line of standby and sight
     letter of credits.  This agreement is contingent upon the Company
     maintaining time deposits (CD's) at the banks as collateral in a total
     amount no less than the outstanding borrowings.  At January 31, 1999, the
     Company had letters of credit outstanding of approximately $400,484.

3.   LITIGATION AND OTHER:

     The Company has been named, along with dozens of other manufacturers,
     designers, and distributors of computer equipment, as a defendant in
     several lawsuits regarding product liability in connection with the alleged
     defective design of computer terminal keyboards and the size of the
     computer monitor screens.  The first claim alleges that the various
     plaintiffs have suffered some form of severe wrist injury from the use of
     said keyboards.  The second claim alleges that there was false advertising
     which claimed that the video screens were 17 inches in size, when in
     reality they were only 15 inches.  The Company's attorneys have prepared a
     defense for these cases and the Company's insurance carriers are informed
     of the plaintiffs claims.  The Company intends to vigorously defend against
     the allegations of these suits.  Management believes that the ultimate
     outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the
     Company's financial positions.

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

     During 1999 and 1998 the Company has had transactions with its
     affiliates as follows (in thousands):

     The Company also borrowed $500,000 from Gem Management, Inc., a company
     owned by the majority shareholder's spouse, on September 15, 1998.  The
     unsecured loan bears annual interest at a prime rate with principal and
     interest due on demand.  Subsequent to the quarter end, the outstanding
     loan principal and interest has been paid in full.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 were approximately $1.79
million, a decrease of approximately 61% from the approximately $4.54 million in
net sales reported in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.  The decrease in net
sales was due to weak demands from Europe affected by the economic conditions
and the overall industry trend towards lower-priced products, particularly in
monitors.  Sale prices increases effective November 1, 1998 also contributed to
the decrease in net sales this quarter as many customers preordered products in
October, 1998 in anticipation of such price increases.  During the first quarter
of fiscal 1999, the Company's product mix continued to shift towards terminals
with the continuing phase-out of multimedia products.

     Cost of sales decreased from approximately $4.07 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1998 to approximately $1.60 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999, a decrease of approximately $2.5 million or 61%, directly
attributable to the decrease in net sales.

     Sales and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of sales from
approximately 17.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to 27.9% in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 while actual expenses decreased from $782,000 in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $498,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, a
decrease of 36% from the prior year.  The percentage increase in expenditures
for marketing is primarily attributable to introduction by the Company of
TeleCLIENT products, which were launched at Comdex in November, 1998.  One-time
expenditure for Comdex amounted to approximately $156,000, or 31% of total sales
and marketing expenses.

     Research and development expenses increased slightly as a percentage 
of sales from approximately 3.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to 
approximately 3.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, while actual expenses 
decreased significantly from $134,000 to $64,000 during the same period in 
1999, a decrease of 52%.

     General and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales 
from approximately 7.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to approximately 
17.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, while actual expenses decreased 
from $346,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $310,000 during the same 
period in 1999, a decrease of approximately 10.4%.  In accordance with the 
sales-leaseback agreement, the Company began making lease payments. The 
increase as the percentage of sale is attributable to the lease payment, 
which was approximately $157,000, or 50% of total general and administrative 
expenses.

     The loss from operations decreased from $796,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1998 to $677,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, a decrease of
approximately 15%.  However, the loss from operations increased as a percentage
of sales from 17.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to 37.9% during the same
period in 1999.

     Interest income net of interest expense increased from $30,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1998 to $32,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, an
increase of 7.9%.

     Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was approximately 
$638,000, compared with a net loss of $762,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 
1998, a decrease of approximately 16%.  The gain (approximately $8.0 million) 
from the sale of the Company's building in December was deferred with only 
the January portion of deferred gain recorded in the first quarter.

     As a result of the foregoing, net loss per share in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 was $0.056, based on 11,391,085 weighted average shares outstanding,
compared to a net loss per share in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 of $0.067,
based on 11,380,610 weighted average shares outstanding.


                                          7
<PAGE>

     No income tax expense or credit was provided for in the first quarter of 
fiscal 1999 as the Company has adequate net operating loss and credit 
carryovers to offset future federal and state corporate income tax 
liabilities.  No net deferred tax asset has been recognized by the Company 
for any future tax benefit to be provided from the loss carry forwards since 
realization of any such benefit is not assured.

     Inflation had no significant impact on the Company's business or results of
operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At January 31, 1999, the Company had $7.6 million in cash and cash 
equivalents, an increase of approximately $6.0 million over the same balances 
at the end of fiscal 1998 of $1.6 million.  During the first quarter of 
fiscal 1999, the Company's primary source of cash was from net proceeds of 
$5.6 million, net of $2.0 million used to pay off a secured short-term loan, 
from the sale of the Company's headquarter building in December, 1998.

     Net accounts receivable decreased by $1.1 million from $2.42 million in
fiscal year ending October 31, 1998 to $1.38 million in the first quarter ending
January 31, 1999, a decrease of 43%.

     Net inventories increased to $2.78 million during the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 from $2.27 million in fiscal year ending October 31, 1998, an
increase of approximately $505,000 or 22.2%.

     Working capital at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was 
approximately $8.1 million, up approximately 221% from the fiscal 1998 
year-end level of approximately $2.5 million.

     At the current consumption rate, the Company's cash balance of
approximately $7.6 million at January 31, 1999, which includes $1.0 million
pledged as collateral to support letters of credits, plus revenues from
operations and other non-operating cash receipts is deemed adequate to fund the
Company's fiscal 1999 operations at projected levels.
