              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                      (In thousands, except per share data)

Note 1 - Basis Of Presentation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented
herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles. The Company believes that the disclosures
contained herein are adequate to make the financial information not misleading.
In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to
present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations and cash flows. These interim condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. The condensed consolidated statements
of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 may not be
indicative of the expected results for the year ended December 31, 1995.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GTI
Corporation (the "Company"), its wholly-owned subsidiaries Valor Electronics,
Inc. ("Valor") and ESCO Sales, Inc., and its majority-owned subsidiary Promptus
Communications, Inc. ("Promptus"). All significant intercompany transactions and
account balances are eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect
the Company's electronic components and equipment segment and distribution
products segment as discontinued operations in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 30 ("APB 30") (see Note 2).

Note 2 - Discontinued Operations

In May 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a formal plan to sell
its non core business segments, consisting of the electronic components and
equipment segment and distribution products segment (the "Segments"), as a part
of the Company's strategic focus on networking and network access markets. The
Segments have been accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with
APB 30, which among other provisions, expects the plan of disposal to be carried
out within one year (the "Divestiture Period"). Company's management
("Management") does not anticipate that the Segments will incur operating losses
during the Divestiture Period.

During September and October 1995, the Company entered into separate letters of
intent to sell the electronic components and equipment segment's assets for
approximately $12.5 million, consisting of $12 million in cash and $0.5 million
in the form of a note receivable, and sell the common stock of the distribution
products segment, ESCO Sales, Inc., for approximately $6 million, consisting of
$4 million in cash and $2 million in the form of a note receivable,
respectively.

Note 2 - Discontinued Operations (Continued)

Both proposed sales are subject to the terms of negotiated definitive agreements
which could vary from the letters of intent. Management's current estimates
indicate that the total sale proceeds from the Segments disposal will
approximate the net assets of discontinued operations at September 30, 1995.
However, the ultimate financial impact of the negotiated definitive agreements
could differ from Management's current estimate.

The operating results (unaudited) of the discontinued operations are summarized
as follows:

Note 6 - Acquisition Liability

The Company's December 31, 1994 balance sheet reflects an acquisition liability
of $500 representing the contingent purchase of the remaining Valor minority
shares (the "Shares"). In August 1995, the Company exercised its right to call
and purchase the remaining Shares based upon the predetermined valuation formula
provided in the management shares agreement. Accordingly, the value of the
Shares has been recalculated as of August 30, 1995, and no additional
compensation was paid for the remaining Shares. Therefore, the acquisition
liability has been reduced to zero and goodwill has been reduced by $500 as of
June 30, 1995. Additionally, minority interest and goodwill have been reduced by
$583 representing the Valor minority interest ending balance on August 30, 1995.

Note 7 - Contingencies

Concurrent with the Promptus acquisition, the Company and the minority
shareholders of Promptus entered into an agreement to govern the contingent
purchase of the remaining 28% of the outstanding capital stock of Promptus.
Under the agreement, beginning in January 1997 and each year thereafter through
January 1999, the minority shareholders of Promptus have the right but not the
obligation to require the Company to acquire the remaining shares in predefined
percentage increments; and the Company has the right but not the obligation to
purchase the remaining shares, with the price to be paid based upon a
predetermined formula using a combination of forecasted and actual results of
Promptus for the period January 1, 1997 through December 31, 1999. The
percentage increment established for the first mutual put/call option in January
1997 may not exceed 30% of the minority shares. In management's opinion, there
is no assurance that the minority shareholders will exercise their rights nor is
it presently possible to assess the probability of whether the Company will
purchase the minority shares. In addition, due to the determinants involved in
establishing a price for the minority shares, it is not presently possible to
estimate the price at which such shares might be purchased. Accordingly, no
accounting recognition has been provided for this contingency in the
accompanying financial statements.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations.

Quarter Ended September 30, 1995:

Results of Operations

In May 1995, the Company approved a formal plan to divest the electronic
components and equipment segment and the distribution products segment (the
"Segments"). These Segments are accounted for as discontinued operations in
accordance with APB 30. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial
statements have been restated to report separately the operating results of the
continuing operations from the Segments. All prior year amounts have been
restated.

For the third quarter ended September 30, 1995, the Company reported sales of
$35,308,000, an increase of 29.7% from $27,216,000 for the same period ended
September 30, 1994. Compared with the second quarter of 1995, sales for the
third quarter of 1995 increased $2,288,000 or 6.9%. Sales for the nine-months
ended September 30, 1995 were $95,344,000 an increase of 30.1% from September
30, 1994. This increase in sales is primarily attributable to continued strong
unit sales of Valor LAN magnetics-based components ("Valor Products") and the
inclusion of sales of Promptus ("Promptus Products') effective January 1, 1995.
Sales by the Company's international operations remained strong for the third
quarter of 1995, representing 32.9% of total Company sales, compared to 30.9%
for the third quarter of 1994.

Valor Products sales for the third quarter of 1995 were $31,370,000, an
increase of 15.3% over the same quarter in 1994. The growth in sales of Valor
Products reflects continued strong unit demand for LAN magnetics-based
components. While Promptus Products sales for the third quarter of 1994 were
not included in the Company's results for the third quarter of 1994, Promptus
Products sales for the third quarter of 1995 increased 53.8% to $3,938,000. The
growth in Promptus Products sales was due to increased unit volume of OASIS
products to OEM's for video conferencing applications. Although no single
Promptus Products' customer accounts for 10% of consolidated revenues, one OEM
customer and its manufacturer accounted for approximately 31% and 26% of
Promptus Products' revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1995, respectively. Compared with the second quarter of 1995, third quarter
sales of Valor Products and Promptus Products increased 6.9% and 7.5%,
respectively.


                                       11
<PAGE>   12

Cost of sales as a percent of sales was 66.8%, 68.1%, 70.8% and 70.5%, for the
third quarter of 1995, the nine-months ended September 30, 1995, third quarter
of 1994 and the nine-months ended September 30, 1994, respectively, resulting in
gross margins of 33.2%, 31.9%, 29.2% and 29.5%, respectively. The increase in
gross margins as a percent of sales for the third quarter and nine-months ended
September 30, 1995 were primarily the result of the inclusion of Promptus
Products sales that carry higher margins than LAN magnetics based components, 
and, to a lesser extent, Valor Products lower costs of production attributable 
to economies of scale related to increased manufacturing volumes and reduced
manufacturing costs. Cost of sales and gross profit dollars increased for the
third quarter of 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 due primarily to
the increased unit sales associated with Valor Products and the inclusion of
Promptus Products sales effective January 1, 1995, which were not included in
the Company's third quarter of 1994 sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 1995 were
$8,436,000, or 23.9% of sales, compared to $6,100,000, or 22.4% of sales for the
third quarter of 1994. These expenses increased in percentage and dollar terms
principally due to the inclusion of Promptus' financial results effective
January 1, 1995, offset by reduced Valor Products spending of approximately
$375,000. The third quarter impact from selling, general, and administrative
expenses incurred by Promptus and amortization of goodwill associated with the
Promptus acquisition amounted to $2,433,000, and $211,000, respectively. While
Promptus Products selling, general and administrative expenses for the third
quarter of 1994 were not included in the Company's results for the third quarter
of 1994, these expenses during the third quarter of 1995 increased approximately
65.5% from the same quarter in 1994. Substantially all of this increase is
associated with the addition of sales and marketing personnel. The Company
believes that these expenses will continue to increase in dollar amount but may
vary as a percentage of future sales.

Other expense (net) for the third quarter was $301,000 compared with income
(net) of $135,000 for the same period one year ago. The net decrease in other
income compared to the third quarter of 1994 is a result of increased interest
expense incurred associated with increased borrowings that financed the Promptus
acquisition. During the third quarter of 1994, no amounts were outstanding on
the credit facilities and long term note payable.

The provision for income taxes was incurred at an effective rate of 19.9% in the
third quarter compared to 20.6% for the third quarter of 1994. The Company's
effective tax rate is lower than the statutory United States rate due to lower
tax rates on the earnings of foreign operations.

Income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 1995 increased 60.8%
to $2,450,000 from $1,524,000 and earnings per common share increased 46.7% to
$0.22, from the comparable period one year ago.

Income from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 1995 decreased
approximately $72,000 or $0.01 per common share from the same period in the
prior year. This is a result of a decrease in income from the distribution
products segment offset by an increase in income from the electronic components
and equipment segment. The decrease in the distribution product segment's income
is attributed to increased product and selling, general and administrative costs
when compared to the same period one year ago. The increase in the electronic
components and equipment segment's income is attributed to increased sales and
operating income in specialty glass components, piece-parts for the worldwide
diode market and equipment compared to the same period in the prior year.

Net income for the third quarter of 1995 increased 42.8% to $2,847,000 and
earnings per common share increased 30.0% to $0.26 from the comparable period
one year ago.

Backlog at September 30, 1995, was $34,823,000, compared to $16,492,000 at
September 30, 1994, and $35,522,000 at June 30, 1995. Backlog for Valor Products
was $33,012,000 at September 30, 1995, compared to $16,492,000 at September 30,
1994, and $29,647,000 at June 30, 1995. The Valor Products backlog for the third
quarter reflects, in part, longer lead times from certain customers as compared
to the backlog at the same period in the prior year. Although, Valor Products'
backlog reflects these longer lead times, Valor Products' historical quarterly
sales are also composed of orders that are received and shipped in the same
quarterly period. Should these short response orders not develop in any future
quarterly period, the Company's consolidated results of operations could be
adversely effected. The Company's future performance on a quarter-to-quarter
basis will be affected by the volume, mix and timing of orders received.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company is currently satisfying its working capital and capital expenditure
requirements through internally generated cash from operations and bank
borrowings. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.6 to 1.0 on
September 30, 1995, compared to 3.1 to 1.0 on December 31, 1994. Net cash used
by continuing operations for the first nine months of 1995 was $903,000 compared
to cash used by continuing operations of $1,218,000 for the first nine months of
1994. This decline in cash used by continuing operations is attributable to the
increase in income from continuing operations from the comparable period in 1994
and an increase in depreciation and amortization related to increased capital
and goodwill amortization associated with the Promptus acquisition offset by an
increase in accounts receivable associated with increased sales volume,
inventories to support increased production volume and a decrease in accounts
payable, accrued and other liabilities. Net cash provided by discontinued
operations decreased $1,710,000 as a result of an increase in accounts
receivable and inventories for both the electronic components and equipment
segment and distribution products segment. The increase in these working capital
accounts is mostly attributed to the electronic components and equipment
segment's increased sales and inventories, both are associated with increased
business experienced during 1995 when compared to the comparable period one year
ago.

In the first nine months of 1995, for continuing operations, the Company
purchased capital equipment approximating $3,788,000. These expenditures were
primarily for equipment to support production capacity for Valor Products. The
Company anticipates that additional capital expenditures of approximately
$2,300,000 will be made during the balance of 1995, primarily for manufacturing
and process engineering equipment for Valor Products.

During the first quarter of 1995, the Company completed its acquisition of
approximately 72% of the outstanding capital stock of Promptus for approximately
$19,300,000, excluding acquisition costs of approximately $200,000. The Company
financed the acquisition of Promptus through a combination of bank borrowings of
approximately $9,800,000 and the issuance of 650,000 shares of common stock of
approximately $9,700,000, net of issuance costs.

The Company has entered into separate letters of intent to sell the electronic
components and equipment segment's assets and the common stock of the
distribution products segment, ESCO Sales, Inc., collectively for approximately
$16 million in cash and $2.5 million in the form of notes receivable. Both
proposed sales are subject to the terms and conditions of negotiated definitive
agreements which could vary from the letters of intent. Management intends to
use the cash proceeds from these divestitures to reduce existing debt.

Management believes that funds on hand, those generated by operations and
available through its lines of credit with a domestic bank for approximately
$10.0 million and a foreign bank, to provide cash overdraft coverage, for
approximately $2.2 million will be sufficient to finance working capital and
currently projected capital expenditure requirements at least through the next
twelve months. As of September 30, 1995, outstanding borrowings from a domestic
bank totaled approximately $8.0 million based on an eligible base of $10.0
million and approximately $1.8 million from a foreign bank based on an eligible
base of $2.2 million. As of November 1, 1995, outstanding borrowings from a
domestic bank were approximately $8.6 based on an eligible base of $10.0
million. The amounts outstanding from a foreign bank were paid in full as of
November 1, 1995.

Dividends on the Company's 8,110 shares of outstanding $35.00 cumulative
convertible preferred stock accrue at an annual rate of $35.00 per share,
payable quarterly. In the first nine months ended September 30, 1995, cash
dividends approximating $213,000 were paid.
