NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for the periods ended March 27, 1998, and March 28, 1997, contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position as of March 27, 1998, and December 31,
1997, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended March
27, 1998, and March 28, 1997.
The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 27, 1998, are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without audit of the three-month periods ended March 27, 1998, and
March 28, 1997, 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 that the disclosures are adequate to
present fairly the Company's financial position. These condensed financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K and
Form 10-K/A.
Note 2 - Investments
At March 27, 1998 the Company's investments were classified as
available-for-sale. The difference between the cost and fair value of these
investments was immaterial and is included in stockholders equity. The
investment balance at March 27, 1998 by major security type follows:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 4 - Income Taxes
The federal, state and foreign income tax provisions of $1,516,000 and
$2,339,000 for the three-month periods ended March 27, 1998, and March 28, 1997,
respectively, reflect the effects of various available tax credits. Tax credits
are treated as reductions of income tax provisions in the year in which the
credits are realized. The Company does not provide for United States taxes on
the undistributed earnings of its wholly owned foreign subsidiaries, since these
earnings are indefinitely reinvested.
A certain level of export income of the Company's Foreign Sales Corporation
(FSC) is permanently exempt from federal income tax; accordingly, the income tax
provisions for the three-month periods ended March 27, 1998, and March 28, 1997,
include the federal tax benefit on export income of the FSC.
The effective income tax rate for the three-month periods ended March 27, 1998,
and March 28, 1997, was 34.0% and 36.0%, respectively.
The major components of deferred tax assets are compensation and benefit plans,
inventory valuation, and leases, respectively. Based on past experience, the
Company expects that the future taxable income will be sufficient for the
realization of the deferred tax assets. The Company believes that a valuation
allowance is not required.
Note 5 - Net Income Per Share
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, which specifies
the computation, presentation and disclosure of net income per share. Basic net
income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the year. Diluted net income per common share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised.
All prior period net income per share figures have been restated.

Note 7 - New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information" (SFAS 131). SFAS 131 requires public companies to report
segment information on the basis used internally to measure segment performance
in complete financial statements and in condensed interim financials issued to
stockholders. This segment information includes their products and services, the
geographic areas in which they operate and their major customers. The Company
will comply with the disclosure requirements of the statement in the 1998 Annual
Report.
In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial
Accounting Standard No. 132 (SFAS132), Employers' Disclosures about pensions and
other post retirement benefits. The Company will comply with the additional
disclosure requirements of the statement in the 1998 Annual Report.
Note 8 - Subsequent Event
On April 16, 1998 the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to
acquire Granville-Phillips Company of Boulder, Colorado, a privately owned
provider of advanced vacuum measurement solutions. Under the terms of the
agreement, Granville-Phillips' shareholders will receive approximately 2.4
million shares of Helix common stock. The transaction will be accounted for as a
pooling of interests and is expected to close in the second quarter of 1998,
subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
Granville-Phillips will become a division of Helix Technology Corporation with
its manufacturing, engineering and customer support operations remaining in
Boulder. Granville-Phillips had 1997 revenues of approximately $25 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Net sales for the first quarter of 1998 were $25.9 million compared with $29.0
million for the first quarter of 1997, a decrease of 10.9%. This decline in
quarterly sales is a result of a slowdown in the global market for semiconductor
capital equipment primarily due to uncertainty in the Asian Market and the
overcapacity of the memory chip market.
Gross profit percentage was 46.4% both for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997.
The company's flexible manufacturing strategies have resulted in continued
strong gross profit performance, despite the year to year reduction in sales.
Research and development expenditures increased $.7 million compared with the
same period last year as the Company continues to develop new products. Total
Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $.1 million primarily
due to decreases in variable compensation expense.
Operating income in the first quarter of 1998 decreased $2.1 million compared
with the first quarter of 1997 due to lower revenue levels and increased
research and development spending.
The Company's provision for income taxes was $1.5 million and $2.3 million for
the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The effective tax rate for the
three-month periods ended March 27, 1998, and March 28, 1997, was 34.0% and
36.0%, respectively. The difference between the statutory federal rate and the
Company's effective tax rate is due to state and foreign income taxes. The lower
tax rate for 1998 is primarily due to increased tax credits for research and
development expenditures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 1998 was $5.0
million compared with $4.2 million for the comparable period last year.
Cash used by investing activities increased by $25.4 million during the first
quarter of 1998 compared with the same period last year. The increase was
primarily due to the purchase of available-for-sale investments comprised
primarily of short-term tax exempt securities.
The Company's informal bank money market lines of credit amount to $12.0
million. There were no borrowings under these agreements during 1998 or 1997.
Cash dividends paid to stockholders during the first quarter of 1998 were $4.2
million or $.21 per common share compared with $3.5 million or $.175 per common
share for the first quarter of 1997.
Page 10
<PAGE>
HELIX TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Continued)
On April 16, 1998 the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of
$.21 per common share. The dividend is payable on May 13, 1998 to stockholders
of record on April 29, 1998.
The Company manages its foreign exchange rate risk arising from intercompany
foreign currency denominated transactions through the use of foreign currency
forward contracts. The gains and losses on these transactions are not material.
The Company believes anticipated cash flow from operations and funds available
under existing credit lines will be adequate to fund operations through 1998 and
that it has opportunities to consider further financing options should
additional funds be required.
Subsequent Event
On April 16, 1998 the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to
acquire Granville-Phillips Company of Boulder, Colorado, a privately owned
provider of advanced vacuum measurement solutions. Under the terms of the
agreement, Granville-Phillips' shareholders will receive approximately 2.4
million shares of Helix common stock. The transaction will be accounted for as a
pooling of interests and is expected to close in the second quarter of 1998,
subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
Granville-Phillips will become a division of Helix Technology Corporation with
its manufacturing, engineering and customer support operations remaining in
Boulder. Granville-Phillips had 1997 revenues of approximately $25 million.
Year 2000
The Company has established a project team to work with our major customers and
suppliers regarding their abilities to meet the Year 2000 requirements.
Specifically, we have sent questionnaires to our suppliers regarding their Year
2000 programs, and we have received similar correspondence from our customers.
These programs are in process, and to date the Company is unaware of any
possible negative impact by these third parties in their abilities to be ready
for the Year 2000.
Certain of the Company's internal computer systems are not Year 2000 ready
(i.e., such systems use only two digits to represent the year in date data
fields and, consequently, may not accurately distinguish between the 20th and
21st centuries or may not function properly at the turn of the century). The
Company has been taking actions intended to either correct such systems or
replace them with Year 2000 ready systems. The Company expects to implement
successfully the systems and programming changes necessary to address Year 2000
issues and does not believe that the cost of such actions will have a material
effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information" (SFAS 131). SFAS 131 requires public companies to report
segment information on the basis used internally to measure segment performance
in complete financial statements and in condensed interim financials issued to

Accounting Standard No. 132 (SFAS132), Employers' Disclosures about pensions and
other post retirement benefits. The Company will comply with the additional
disclosure requirements of the statement in the 1998 Annual Report.
Business Risks and Uncertainties
The Company operates in a changing and cyclical business environment that
involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond the Company's control. The
Company's future results will depend on its continued ability to manage the
cyclical nature of the semiconductor capital equipment industry, the Company's
ability to introduce new products to meet its customers' demands for higher
productivity and reliability, and the dependence of the Company on key customers
and key suppliers.
Forward-Looking Statements

from time to time by the Company through its senior management may include a
number of forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements
with respect to the Company's future financial performance, operating results,
plans and objectives. Such statements are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual
results may differ materially from those anticipated by such statements
depending upon a variety of factors, some of which are itemized in the "Business
Risks and Uncertainties" section above. The Company undertakes no responsibility
to update any forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or
circumstances occurring after the dates the statements were made or to reflect
the occurrence of unanticipated events.
