             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


1.   BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION
     -------------------------------------

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
     include the accounts of Hathaway Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries
     and investments in joint ventures (the Company).  All significant inter-
     company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
     Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in order to
     conform with the current year's presentation.

     The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
     prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission and include all adjustments which are,
     in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. Certain
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
     and regulations.  The Company believes that the disclosures herein are
     adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The financial
     data for the interim periods may not necessarily be indicative of results
     to be expected for the year.

     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain
     estimates and assumptions.  Such estimates and assumptions affect the
     reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of
     contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
     statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
     reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     It is suggested that the accompanying condensed interim financial
     statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
     Statements and related Notes to such statements included in the June 30,
     1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K previously filed by the Company.

3.   BUSINESS ACQUISITION
     --------------------

     Effective July 1, 1998, Emoteq Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
     the Company, acquired all the outstanding shares of Ashurst Logistic
     Electronics Limited of Bournemouth, England (Ashurst) for $317,000 in cash.
     Ashurst manufactures drive electronics and position controllers for a
     variety of motor technologies as well as a family of static frequency
     converters for military and aerospace applications and has extensive
     experience in power electronics design and software development required
     for the application of specialized drive electronics technology.  The
     acquired company was renamed Emoteq UK Limited.

3.   BUSINESS ACQUISITION (CONTINUED)
     --------------------------------

     The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of
     accounting, and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the
     assets purchased and the liabilities assumed based upon the fair values at
     the date of acquisition.  The preliminary net purchase price allocation,
     which is subject to adjustment, is as follows (in thousands):

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

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
     128, "Earnings Per Share" (EPS), Basic and Diluted EPS have been computed
     as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

</TABLE>

     At March 31, 1999 and 1998, stock options totaling 832,204 and 702,704,
     respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (loss)
     per share since the result would have been anti-dilutive.

5.   SEGMENT INFORMATION
     -------------------

     In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS
     No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information" (SFAS 131). SFAS 131 requires disclosure of operating
     segments, which as defined, are components of an enterprise about which
     separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by
     the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources
     and in assessing performance.

     The Company operates in two different segments: Power and Process Business
     (Power and Process) and Motion Control Business (Motion Control).
     Management has chosen to organize the Company around these segments based
     on differences in markets, products and services.

6.   COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
     ------------------

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
     Income," (SFAS 130). SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and
     displaying comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is
     defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period
     from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner
     sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those
     resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.

     Comprehensive loss is computed as follows (in thousands):

7.   INCOME TAX RULING REQUEST
     -------------------------

     In June 1998, the Company filed a request for an income tax ruling by the
     Internal Revenue Service (IRS) with respect to the tax-free treatment of
     the possible spinoff of its Power, Systems and Process Business. The
     proposed spinoff would separate the Company's Power, Systems and Process
     Business from its Motion Control Business. Prior to the spinoff, the Power,
     Systems and Process Business will be organized under one of Hathaway's
     subsidiaries, Hathaway Systems Corporation (HSC). If such transaction were
     to occur, all of the outstanding shares of HSC would be distributed to the
     Hathaway shareholders, and thereafter, the Power, Systems and Process
     Business would operate as a separate publicly-owned company under the name
     of Hathaway Corporation and the Motion Control Business would operate as a
     separate publicly-owned company under the name of Hathaway Motion Control
     Corporation.

     In December 1998, the IRS issued a favorable ruling on the proposed
     transaction. The primary purpose for the spinoff would be to obtain
     additional bank financing. The final decision as to whether to proceed with
     the spinoff will be made by the Company's Board of Directors only after
     approval is obtained from the Company's lenders and after consideration of
     all relevantother factors at that time. Because management has not
     committed to such spinoff, the Power and Process Business has not been
     treated as a discontinued operation.

                   OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

All statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private

OPERATING RESULTS
- -----------------
For the third quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company recognized a net loss of
$379,000, or $.09 per share, compared to a net loss of $690,000, or $.16 per
share, for the same period last year. Revenues increased 78% in the third
quarter from $9,804,000 last year to $10,550,000 this year.

The Company recognized a net loss of $2,032,000, or $.47 per share, for the nine
months ended March 31, 1999, compared to a net loss of $1,436,000, or $.33 per
share, for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. Revenues for the first nine
months decreased by less than 1% from $30,480,000 in fiscal 1998 to $30,207,000
in fiscal 1999.

The 8% increase in revenues in the third quarter and the small decrease in the
first nine months were due to 14% and 4% increases, respectively, in the
Company's revenues from power and process products offset by 4% and 10%
decreases, respectively, in revenues from the Company's motion control products.
The increases in power and process revenues were primarily due to increases in
systems automation business and revenues from new products. The decreases in
motion control revenues were primarily due to decreased orders resulting from
the Asian economic crisis and the slow down in the semiconductor industry.

Sales to international customers decreased from $3,719,000 in the third quarter
of the prior year, to $2,960,000 in the third quarter of the current year. In
the first nine months, sales to international customers decreased from
$10,246,000 in fiscal year 1998 to $9,566,000 in fiscal year 1999. Foreign sales
represented 28% of total sales in the third quarter ended March 31, 1999 and 38%
of total sales in the third quarter ended March 31, 1998, and 32% and 34% of
total sales in the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Cost of products sold as a percentage of revenues remained reasonably consistent
with the prior year, increasing from 64% in the third quarter of fiscal year
1998 to 65% in the third quarter of the current year, and remaining at 65% for
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

Selling, general and administrative, and engineering and development expenses
decreased 3% in the third quarter and less than 1% in the first nine months, as
compared to the same periods last year.

For the nine months ended March 31, 1999, the Company recognized a 4,000 benefit
for income taxes compared to a benefit for income taxes of $299,000 recognized
last year. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in the valuation
allowance for the net deferred tax assets of the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Company's liquidity position as measured by cash and cash equivalents
(excluding restricted cash) decreased $2,288,000 during the first nine months of
fiscal 1999 to a balance of $1,155,000 at March 31, 1999, compared to $356,000
used in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. In the first nine months of fiscal
1999, $1,487,000 was used for operating activities, compared to $720,000
generated by operations for the same period last fiscal year.

                             HATHAWAY CORPORATION
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                   OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash of $776,000 was used by investing activities in the first nine months of
fiscal 1999, compared to $514,000 used by investing activities last year. The
increase in cash used was primarily due to cash used in fiscal 1999 for the
purchases of Ashurst Logistic Electronics Limited and additional property and
equipment, offset by a dividend of $121,000 received from a joint venture
investment during the first quarter of fiscal 1999. Financing activities used
$11,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to $564,000 used in
fiscal 1998. The decrease in cash used for financing activities was primarily
due to a decrease in repayments of the bank line- of- credit.

The Company believes that its existing cash balance of $1,155,000 and the amount
available under its long-term financing agreement (Agreement) are sufficient to
fund operations and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months.
The Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (Silicon) is a line-of-credit that allows
for borrowing up to the lesser of $3,000,000 or 85% of the Company's eligible
receivables (Maximum Credit Limit). As of March 31, 1999, the Company could
borrow an additional $1,619,000, up to the $2,853,000 Maximum Credit Limit. The
Agreement matures on May 7, 2000 and will automatically be extended for
successive additional terms of one year each unless written notice is given at
least sixty days prior to any annual renewal date. The Agreement may be
terminated by Silicon if the Company fails to maintain compliance with certain
covenants related to tangible net worth. In addition, certain occurrences as
defined in the Agreement, including a material adverse change in the Company's
business, constitute an "Event of Default" in which Silicon may cease making
loans, declare all or any part of the outstanding balance due and payable or
take possession of any collateral securing the line-of-credit. As of May 13,
1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants and was not aware of the
occurrence of any "Event of Default".

Recently, the Company has introduced new products, is developing additional new
products and has been awarded a significant contract, all of which are enabling
the Power and Process Business to show improved results. In addition, the
Company has started to see a recovery in its Motion Control Business as
operating results have improved each quarter from the previous quarter during
fiscal 1999. The Company believes it is making progress towards its objective of
returning to growth and profitability.




YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

Some computers and computer-based systems use only the last two digits to
identify a year in the date field and cannot distinguish the year 2000 from the
year 1900. The Company recognizes that the Year 2000 poses a challenge to the
proper functioning of computer systems included in its products, software
systems used in its business and items purchased from its suppliers. The Company
has adopted a "Y2K Readiness Program" and is taking what it believes to be
appropriate steps necessary in preparation for Year 2000 issues.

The Company is completing an assessment of its products to determine which
products will be affected by Year 2000 issues. Test procedures have been modeled
from the public document titled "Year 2000 Test Procedures", published by
General Motors Corporation, and include a step by step method of date
verification using each interface to the product. Modifications and updates are
being made as needed. Testing of most products is completed or under way.
Modifications and updates are being made as needed for products that are not Y2K
compliant. With the possible exception of some of the older RTU protocol
software, testing of all of the Company's current products will be complete
before December 31, 1999. Some of the Company's older products that are no
longer sold will not be tested for compliance. The Company will indicate on its
Web site which products will not be tested.

The Company is also assessing internal systems, processes and facilities for
Year 2000 compliance. The expected completion date to have all significant
internal systems, processes and facilities compliant is June 30, 1999. The
Company's assessment of its suppliers', service providers' and contractors' Year
2000 compliance is also ongoing and is expected to be completed by June 30,
1999. Alternative sources will be pursued for any non-compliant sources.
Additionally, alternative sources will be identified and qualified for all
compliant sources so that a secondary supplier will be available in the event
that disruption in supply occurs from the primary supplier.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                   OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company currently believes it will be able to modify or offer alternative
products as well as modify or replace its affected systems in time to minimize
any detrimental effects on customer relationships or operations. Therefore, the
Company does not anticipate that the overall costs of adaptation of its products
and systems will be material to the Company's business, operations or financial
condition. However, the Company will continue to review on an ongoing basis
whether it needs to further address any anticipated costs, problems and
uncertainties associated with Year 2000 consequences.
