          GENERAL MICROWAVE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                         August 30, 1997

                           (Unaudited)


NOTE 1: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of General
        Microwave Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, General Microwave
        Foreign Sales Corporation (FSC), Micro-El Patent Corporation and Math
        Associates, Inc. (Math); its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries,
        General Microwave Israel Corporation (GMIC) and General Microwave
        Israel (1987) Ltd. (GMIL); and its majority-owned subsidiary General
        Microcircuits Corporation (GMCC).  All intercompany accounts and
        transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2: The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments
        (which include only normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the
        opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results
        for the interim period.  The interim figures are not necessarily
        indicative of the results for the year. 

NOTE 3: Pursuant to a Board of Directors resolution on February 25, 1997, the
        Company adopted a plan to discontinue its electronic fiber optic
        systems and components business operated by Math.  The plan anticipated
        that the liquidation of Math will be completed by no later than
        February 28, 1998.  At February 28, 1997, the provision for loss on
        disposal was recorded in the consolidated financial statements
        principally relating to the anticipated disposal of inventory and other
        assets, estimated losses during the phase-out period and estimated
        costs of liquidation.  On September 24, 1997, a sale of certain of the
        assets of Math was completed which resulted in a gain from discontinued
        operations as recorded in the consolidated financial statements as of
        August 30, 1997.  This gain relates principally to the proceeds from
        the sale of assets and the reversal of estimated costs of liquidation
        which will no longer be incurred as a result of the sale.  The
        consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reclassified
        to reflect the effects of the Company's decision to account for the
        disposal of its Math operations as discontinued operations.
        Accordingly, the net sales, costs and expenses, assets and liabilities,
        and cash flows associated with Math have been excluded from the
        respective captions in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets,
        statements of operations and statements of cash flows.

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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

For the Quarter Ended August 30, 1997 compared with the Quarter Ended
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
August 31, 1996.
- ---------------

In the second quarter of fiscal 1998, net sales from continuing operations
of $5,487,800 increased by $612,432 (12.6%) from the comparable quarter last
year.  In the second quarter of fiscal 1998 the Company had net earnings from
continuing operations of $317,570 or $.26 per share.  After the gain on
the sale of assets of the discontinued operations of Math Associates, Inc.
of $952,811 or $.77 per share, the second quarter net earnings were
$1,270,381 or $1.03 per share.  In the second quarter of fiscal 1997 the
Company had a net loss of $255,187 or $.21 per share from continuing
operations, a net loss from discontinued operations of $434,470 or $.36 per
share, for a net loss of $689,657 or $.57 per share.  Sales and earnings
increased in all of the Company's continuing operations with the improvement
in earnings principally in the Company's Amityville operation.

In February 1997, the Company decided to concentrate on its core businesses
and adopted a plan to exit the fiber optics business of its Math Associates
subsidiary.  (See Note 3 to Consolidated Financial Statements). 
Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated, all of the information herein has
been reclassified to present the assets, liabilities and results of
operations of the fiber optics business as a discontinued operation.  On
September 24, 1997, a sale of certain of the assets of Math was completed,
which resulted in a gain from discontinued operations as recorded in the
consolidated financial statements as of August 30, 1997.  This gain relates
principally to the proceeds from the sale of assets and the reversal of
estimated costs of liquidation which will no longer be incurred as a result
of the sale.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, decreased during the current
quarter to 65.8% from 72.9% during the comparable quarter of last year as the
company continued to improve processes and controls.  Total operating expenses
decreased as a percentage of sales in the current fiscal quarter, to 27.6%
from 31.2% in the comparable quarter of last year as the Company benefited
from increased sales that were not offset by comparable expense increases.

During the second quarter of fiscal 1998, sales orders booked were $4.1
million and the closing backlog was $15.2 million compared with $4.0
million and $11.0 million respectively for the second quarter of fiscal
1997.

For the Six Months Ended August 30, 1997 compared with the Six Months Ended
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
August 31, 1996.
- ---------------

During the first half of fiscal 1998, net sales were $10,474,928 compared
with $9,163,440 for the first half of fiscal 1997, representing a 14.3%
increase.  Net earnings were $485,357 or $.40 per share from continuing
operations for the current period as compared to a net loss of $190,171 or
$.16 per share from continuing operations for the prior fiscal year.  After
net earnings from discontinued operations of $952,811 or $.78 per share,
six month net earnings were $1,438,168 or $1.18 per share, as compared to
a net loss of $443,992 or $.37 per share from discontinued operations with
a six month net loss of $634,163 or $.53 per share in the first half of
fiscal 1997.

Sales increased in all of the Company's continuing operations, with
significant earnings improvement in each of the Company's operations.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 65.2% in the first
half of fiscal 1998, compared to 68.6% in the first half of fiscal 1997,
as the Company continued to improve processes and controls.

During the current half the Company decreased total operating expenses as
a percentage of sales to 29.2% from 32.2% in the prior year as the Company
benefited from increased sales that were not offset by comparable expense
increases.  Interest expenses decreased due to reduced borrowings at the
Israeli subsidiary.  Investment income increased because of increased funds
available for investment.

During the first half of fiscal 1998, sales orders booked were $8.7 million
and the backlog was $15.2 million compared with $9.3 million and $11.0
million respectively, for the first half of fiscal 1997.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
August 30, 1997 compared with February 28, 1997
- -----------------------------------------------

At August 30, 1997, the Company's ratio of current assets to current
liabilities was 3.2 to 1 compared to 2.2 to 1 at February 28, 1997.


                                    Page 11

During the first half of fiscal 1998, cash flows provided by continuing
operations amounted to approximately $957,000 as compared to approximately
$1,343,000 during the comparable period last year.  In addition, cash flows
of approximately $278,000 were provided by discontinued operations, whereas
for the comparable period last year, discontinued operations used
approximately $914,000.  The cash flows during the first half of fiscal
1998 were utilized to purchase equipment for approximately $220,000, repay
long and short term borrowings totalling approximately $770,000 in
connection with the Israeli subsidiaries and increase cash balances.
Accounts receivable declined approximately $148,000, while inventories
decreased by approximately $212,000 primarily at the Company's Israeli
operations, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased
approximately $379,000, due to timing differences and reduced expenditures.
The Company expects to spend up to $250,000 during the remainder of the
year for capital equipment.

The agreements relating to the Company's 7-Day Demand Industrial
Development Revenue Bonds contain several restrictive covenants.  The
Company must, among other things, maintain profitable operations, a minimum
ratio of current assets to current liabilities, a minimum level of tangible
net worth, as defined, and must not exceed a specified debt to equity
ratio.  In addition, commencing April 1, 1996, the Company is required to
make monthly sinking fund payments towards its annual $500,000 bond
payment.  Such amount is reflected as restricted cash on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets.  In December 1995, the Company and two of its
subsidiaries, Math and GMCC, guaranteed and granted a security interest in
their accounts receivable to the bondholders and the letter of credit
issuer as additional security for the Company's bond related debt.  The
total of such accounts receivable is $3,555,700 at August 30, 1997.  As a
result of the impact on the financial statements as of and for the year
ended February 28, 1997, due to the discontinued Math operations, the
Company required and received a waiver dated May 20, 1997 of three
covenants.  The waiver also modified the tangible net worth covenant, as
defined, to approximately the February 28, 1997 level, subject to increases
dependent upon future operations.  The tangible net worth covenant limits
the ability of the Company to pay cash dividends.  As a result of such
covenant as amended, there is approximately $1,580,000 of unrestricted
funds available for the payment of cash dividends as of August 30, 1997.
Management anticipates using such funds to enhance future operations and
does not anticipate cash dividends in the immediately forseeable future.
Because management anticipates compliance with the covenants now in effect,
the Industrial Development Revenue Bonds debt is classified as long-term
debt.

The Company believes that its present resources, including available
credit, are sufficient to meet its needs for the foreseeable future.

          shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have

          been brought before the meeting in accordance with the

          procedures set forth in this Section 8.  The presiding officer

          of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine

          whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought

          before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures

          set forth in this Section 8 and, if any proposed nomination or

          business is not in compliance with this Section 8, to declare

          that such defective nomination or proposal be disregarded.

                    (2)  For purposes of this Section 8, "public

          announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported

          applicable requirements of state law and of the Exchange Act

          and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the

          statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

take effect at the time specified therein, and if no time be specified, at

the time of its receipt by the president or secretary.  The acceptance of

any committee, or officer becomes vacant, the directors in office may

                          Indemnification
                          ---------------

          Section 1.     To the extent permitted by law, the corporation shall
          ---------
indemnify any person made, or, threatened to be made, a party to an action

by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor,

by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a

director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request

of the corporation as a director or officer of any other corporation of any

type or kind, domestic or foreign, of any partnership, joint venture, trust,

employee benefit plan or other enterprise against amounts paid in settlement

and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily

incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action,

or in connection with an appeal therein, if such director or officer acted

in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in

the case of service for any other corporation or any partnership, joint

venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed to,

the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification under

this Section shall be made in respect of (a) a threatened action or a

pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of, or (b) any claim,

issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be

liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in

which the action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any court of

competent jurisdiction, determines upon application that, in view of all the

circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to

indemnity for such portion of the settlement amount and expenses as the

court deems proper.

          Section 2.     (a)  To the extent permitted by law, the corporation
          ---------
shall indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to an

action or proceeding (other than one by or in the right of the corporation

to procure a judgment in its favor), whether civil or criminal, including

an action by or in the right of any other corporation of any type or kind,

domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee

benefit plan or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the

corporation served in any capacity at the request of the corporation, by

reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, was a director or

officer of the corporation, or served such other corporation partnership,

joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any

capacity, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and

reasonable expenses including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily

incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein,

if such director or officer

acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in,

or, in the case of service for any other corporation or any partnership,

joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed

to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal actions or

proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to believe that his

conduct was unlawful.

                    (b)  The termination of any such civil or criminal

action or proceeding by judgment, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of

nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not in itself create a presumption

that any such director or officer did not act, in good faith, for a purpose

which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for any

other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit


                                    Page 32
<PAGE>




plan or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the cor-

poration or that he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was

unlawful.

          Section 3.     For the purpose of this Article, the corporation
          ---------
shall be deemed to have requested a person to serve an employee benefit plan

where the performance by such person of his duties to the corporation also

imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such person to the

plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on

a person with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law

shall be considered fines; and action taken or omitted by a person with

respect to an employee benefit plan in the performance of such person's

duties for a purpose reasonably believed by such person to be in the

interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed

to be for a purpose which is not opposed to the best interests of the

corporation.

          Section 4.     A person who has been successful, on the merits or
          ---------
otherwise, in the defense of a civil or criminal action or proceeding of the

character described in Section 1 or 2 shall be entitled to indemnification

as authorized in such Sections.

          Section 5.     Except as provided by Section 4, any indemnification
          ---------
under Sections 1, 2 and/or 3 or otherwise permitted by Sections 6 and 9,

unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the corporation, only if

authorized in the specific case:

               (a)  By the Board of Directors of the corporation acting

by a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to such action or

proceeding upon a finding that the director or officer has met the standard

of conduct set forth in Section 1, 2 and/or 3 or established pursuant to

Section 4, as the case may be, or


                                    Page 33
<PAGE>




               (b)  If a quorum under subsection (a) is not obtainable

or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs,

                    (1)  By the Board upon the opinion in writing of

          independent legal counsel that indemnification is proper in the

          circumstances because the applicable standard of conduct set

          forth in such sections has been met by such director or officer,

          or
                    (2)  By the stockholders upon a finding that the

          director or officer has met the applicable standard of conduct

          set forth in such sections.

          Section 6.     Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal
          ---------
action or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final

disposition of such action or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by

or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount as, and to the

extent, required by Section 7.

          Section 7.     All expenses incurred in defending a civil or
          ---------
criminal action or proceeding which are advanced by the corporation in

accordance with Section 6 shall be repaid in case the person receiving such

advancement or allowance is ultimately found under the procedure set forth

in this Article or by law not to be entitled to indemnification or, where

indemnification is granted, to the extent the expenses so advanced by the

corporation exceed the indemnification to which he is entitled.

          Section 8.     No indemnification, advancement or allowance shall be
          ---------
made under this Article in any circumstance where it appears:

               (a)  That the indemnification would be inconsistent with

the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of a foreign corporation which

prohibits or otherwise limits such indemnification;


                                    Page 34
<PAGE>




               (b)  That the indemnification would be inconsistent with

a provision of the certificate of incorporation of the corporation, these

by-laws, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the corporation or of the

stockholders, an agreement or other proper corporate action, in effect at

the time of the accrual of the alleged cause of action asserted in

threatened or pending action or proceeding in which the expenses were

incurred or other amounts were paid, which prohibits or otherwise limits

indemnification; or

               (c)  If there has been a settlement approved by the court,

that the indemnification would be inconsistent with any condition with

respect to indemnification expressly imposed by the court in approving the

settlement.

          Section 9.     The indemnification and advancement of expenses
          ---------
granted pursuant to, or provided by, this Article shall not be deemed

exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer seeking

indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled, whether

contained in the certificate of incorporation of the corporation or these

by-laws, or, when authorized by the certificate of incorporation of the

corporation or these by-laws, (a) a resolution of stockholders, (b) a

resolution of directors, or (c) an agreement providing for such

indemnification, provided that no indemnification may be made to or on

behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication

adverse to the director or officer establishes that his acts were committed

in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were

material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he personally gained

in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally

entitled.  Nothing contained in this Article shall affect any rights to

indemnification to which corporate personnel other than directors and

officers may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law.
