1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do
not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual
consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the

management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain
all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a
fair presentation of the consolidated condensed balance sheets and consolidated
condensed statements of operations and cash flow for such interim periods
presented. The results of operations for the three months ended January 31, 1996

Revenues, inventory and receivable amounts set forth in the accompanying
consolidated condensed financial statements do not include any material amounts
related to long-term contracts.

3. The equity in income of unconsolidated partnerships reported in the
consolidated condensed statements of operations has been increased by interest
income from the unconsolidated partnerships of $6,000 in 1996 and the related
loss in 1995 has been reduced by interest income from the unconsolidated
partnerships of $79,000.

4. Income per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during each period plus common share equivalents
arising from the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive, and has been
adjusted for the effect of any stock dividends.

5. Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information for the three months ended
January 31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

    Cash paid for interest was $67,000 and $92,000 in 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was $304,000 and $46,000 in 1996 and
1995, respectively.

    Equipment under capital lease with a net book value of $583,000 and an
associated intangible asset of $308,000 were written off along with the
corresponding capital lease liability of $891,000 as the lease was terminated in
fiscal 1996.

6.  In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation (SFAS No. 123). SFAS No. 123 does not rescind or interpret existing
accounting rules for employee stock-based arrangements. Under SFAS No. 123, the
Company may continue to follow existing rules to recognize and measure
compensation, but they will now be required to disclose the pro forma amounts of
net income and earnings per share that would have to be reported had the Company
elected to follow the "fair value" recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123. SFAS
No. 123 will apply to the Company for the year ending October 31, 1997. The
Company has not determined whether it will elect to recognize and measure
compensation expense under SFAS No. 123 and has not yet determined its effect on
the Company's financial position or results of operations.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
              For the three months ended January 31, 1996 and 1995


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Fiscal 1996 first quarter net income of $870,000 ($.28 per share) increased 53%
over fiscal 1995 first quarter net income of $569,000 ($.20 per share).

For the first three months of fiscal 1996, net sales totaled $10,860,000,
representing a 22% increase over sales of $8,933,000 in the first three months
of fiscal 1995.

The improved fiscal 1996 earnings are primarily attributable to increased sales
volume in the Company's aerospace products and services subsidiary, HEICO
Aerospace Corporation, discussed below.

Net sales of HEICO Aerospace totaled $6,978,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1996 as compared to $5,392,000 in the same period of fiscal 1995. The
$1,586,000, or 29%, increase in HEICO Aerospace's first quarter revenues from
fiscal 1995 to fiscal 1996 is due principally to higher sales volumes.

Net sales of the Company's health care services subsidiary, MediTek Health
Corporation, totaled $3,882,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996,
representing an increase of $341,000, or 10%, over revenues in the first quarter
of fiscal 1995. The fiscal 1996 increase in MediTek's revenues is due
principally to the opening of two new medical diagnostic centers since the first
quarter of last year, partially offset by increases in contractual allowances in
certain geographic regions during the last half of fiscal 1995 for services
billed to third party reimbursement sources. Net sales of MediTek exclude
revenues of three unconsolidated partnerships, which totaled $1.7 million and
$1.3 million in the first quarters of fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.

HEICO Aerospace's backlog totaled approximately $24 million as of January 31,
1996, including $14 million representing forecasted shipments over the next 12
months for certain contracts (the "Contracts") pursuant to which customers
provide estimated annual usage. The current backlog increased from $13 million
as of January 31, 1995 and remained approximately level with the balance

                                       -8-


<PAGE>

of $23 million as of October 31, 1995. The increase in current backlog over that
of January 31, 1995 is principally due to increased demand and sales incentives
offered by the Company. MediTek's order backlog is insignificant due to the
nature of its operations.

HEICO Aerospace's gross profit margins averaged 33.3% for the first quarter of
fiscal 1996, an increase over the 32.3% average margins experienced in the same
period of fiscal 1995. This increase in gross profit margins reflects a
favorable product mix and manufacturing cost reductions.

Gross profit margins of MediTek averaged 24.8% in the first quarter of fiscal
1996 as compared to 34.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 1995. The decrease in
the gross profit margin percentage in fiscal 1996 is principally due to
increases in the aforementioned contractual allowances in certain geographic
regions during the last half of fiscal 1995. This decrease in margin percentage
was partially offset by the aforementioned 10% increase in MediTek's sales.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 increased $191,000 over amounts in the first quarter of fiscal 1995
due principally to increased SG&A expenses at MediTek and increased general
corporate expenses. As a percentage of sales, however, SG&A expenses declined to
19.1% of consolidated net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 from 21.0%
in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.

The equity in income of unconsolidated partnerships was $114,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 as compared to a loss of $175,000 in the same period of
last year. This $289,000 improvement is primarily due to the merger of an
unprofitable center into a new unconsolidated partnership with another
previously unrelated center in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995. The equity in
income or loss of these partnerships includes costs representing the management
services fee income paid to MediTek and included in consolidated net sales as
part of health care services sales. This service fee income totaled $103,000 in
the first quarter of fiscal 1996 and $135,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1995.


                                       -9-


<PAGE>

Income from operations, which totaled $1,327,000 for the first quarter of fiscal
1996, increased $418,000, or 46%, over the same period of last year. This
increase principally reflects an increase in operating income at HEICO Aerospace
to approximately $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996, up from
approximately $1.0 million in the first quarter of last year, partially offset
by a decrease in MediTek's operating income to approximately $600,000 in the
current year from approximately $700,000 in the first quarter of last year.
HEICO Aerospace's improvement is due primarily to the aforementioned sales
volume increase and gross profit margin improvement. The decline in MediTek's
income from operations is due principally to the previously discussed decline in
gross profit margins and increased SG&A expenses, partially offset by the
improved operating results of the unconsolidated partnerships.

The Company's effective tax rate decreased from 39.3% for the first quarter of
fiscal 1995 to 36.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 primarily due to the
increased impact of tax benefits on higher amounts of export sales and
investment income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the first three months of fiscal 1996, net cash provided by operating
activities totaled $1,022,000, up from $729,000 in the first three months of
fiscal 1995, reflecting the higher earnings of the Company.

The Company's principal investing activities during the first quarter of fiscal
1996 were the maturity of short-term investments of $2.9 million, purchases of
property, plant and equipment of $.5 million and contingent note payments of $.4
million related to MediTek's prior years acquisitions.

The Company's principal financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal
1996 were the receipt of funds from the exercise of Company stock options of $.2
million, the issuance of long-term debt of $.2 million to partially fund
