Herley Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Unaudited)

1.   The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of Herley
     Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries,  all of which are wholly-owned.  All
     significant  intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

     In the opinion of the  Company,  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial
     statements  reflect all  adjustments  (which include only normal  recurring
     adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations and cash
     flows for the periods presented. These financial statements (except for the
     balance sheet  presented at August  3,1997) are unaudited and have not been
     reported on by independent public accountants.

     Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
     the results of operations for a full year due to external factors which are
     beyond the control of the Company.

2.   Inventories at May 3, 1998 and August 3, 1997 are summarized as follows:

                                                May 3, 1998    August 3, 1997

        Work in process                           7,897,025       4,899,551
        Finished products                           549,549         110,495
                                                 ----------      ----------
                                                $15,506,597     $ 9,790,382
                                                 ==========      ==========

3.   In January 1997, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with
     a bank that provides for the extension of credit in the aggregate principal
     amount  of  $11,000,000  and may be used for  general  corporate  purposes,
     including  business  acquisitions.  The  facility  requires  the payment of
     interest only on a monthly basis and payment of the  outstanding  principal
     balance on January  31,  2000 as  amended in May 1998.  Interest  is set at
     1.65% over the FOMC Federal Funds Target Rate (5.50% at May 3, 1998). As of
     May 3, 1998 the  Company  borrowed  $2,500,000  under the line.  The credit
     facility also provides for the issuance of stand-by  letters of credit with
     a fee of 1.0% per annum of the amounts  outstanding under the facility.  At
     May 3,  1998,  stand-by  letters  of  credit  aggregating  $1,667,000  were
     outstanding.

     The agreement contains various financial covenants,  including, among other
     matters, the maintenance of working capital and tangible net worth.

4.   On August 4, 1997,  the Company  completed  the  acquisition  of  Metraplex
     Corporation  , a Maryland  corporation  for 313,193  (adjusted  for 4-for-3
     stock  split)  shares of common  stock of the  Company,  with a fair market
     value of  $3,170,684,  in  exchange  for all of the issued and  outstanding
     common stock of  Metraplex.  Metraplex is a leading  manufacturer  of pulse
     code modulation and frequency  modulation,  telemetry and data  acquisition
     systems for severe  environment  applications.  Metraplex products are used
     worldwide for testing space launch vehicle instrumentation, aircraft flight
     testing,  and amphibian,  industrial and automotive  vehicle  testing.  The
     transaction has been accounted for by the purchase method. Accordingly, the
     consolidated balance sheet includes the assets and liabilities of Metraplex
     at May 3, 1998, and the consolidated  statements of operations  include the
     results of Metraplex operations from August 4, 1997.

     On the basis of a pro forma  consolidation  of the results of operations as
     if the  acquisition  had  taken  place at the  beginning  of  fiscal  1997,
     unaudited  consolidated net sales,  net income,  and earnings per share for
     the   thirteen   and  forty  weeks  ended  May  4,  1997  would  have  been
     approximately $9,444,000, $1,452,000, and

                                        5

     $0.29, and approximately  $26,689,000,  $3,150,000, and $0.63 respectively.
     The pro forma information includes adjustments for additional  depreciation
     based on the  fair  market  value of the  property,  plant,  and  equipment
     acquired, and the amortization of intangibles arising from the transaction.
     The pro forma financial  information is not  necessarily  indicative of the
     results of  operations  as they would  have been had the  transaction  been
     effected at the beginning of fiscal 1997.

5.   On September 4, 1997 the Board of Directors  declared a 4-for-3 stock split
     effected  as a stock  dividend  payable  September  29,  1997 to holders of
     record on September 15, 1997.  The effect of the split is presented  within
     shareholders'  equity at August 3, 1997.  The  distribution  increased  the
     number of shares  outstanding  from  3,157,024 to 4,209,365.  The amount of
     $105,234 was transferred from the additional  paid-in capital to the common
     stock  account to record this  distribution.  All share and per share data,
     including  stock options and warrants,  included in this annual report have
     been restated to reflect the stock split.

6.   On December 16, 1997 the Company  completed the sale of 1,100,000 shares of
     common  stock to the  public,  of which  700,000  shares  were  sold by the
     Company and 400,000 shares were sold by certain selling  stockholders.  The
     Company received $7,999,400 after underwriting discounts and commissions of
     $510,600 based on a price to the public of $12.00. In addition, the Company
     sold  1,100,000   Common  Stock   Purchase   Warrants  for  $103,400  after
     underwriting  discounts and  commissions  of $6,600 based on a price to the
     public of $0.10 for each  warrant.  The  warrants  are  exercisable  for 25
     months and entitle the holder to purchase  one share of Common  Stock at an
     exercise  price of  $14.40  per  share  for  thirteen  months  from date of
     issuance and thereafter at $15.60 per share. The Company has also issued to
     the  underwriters,  for their own  account,  warrants to  purchase  110,000
     shares of common  stock of the  Company  at a price of  $14.40  per  share,
     exercisable for a period of four years beginning  December 16, 1998 and the
     right to  purchase  warrants  for  $.12 per  warrant  for  thirteen  months
     beginning December 16, 1998.

     On January 14, 1998, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option
     to purchase 165,000  additional shares of common stock from certain selling
     stockholders,  and 165,000  additional  Common Stock Purchase Warrants from
     the  Company.  The  Company  received  $15,510  for  the  warrants,   after
     underwriting  discounts  and  commissions  of $990  based on a price to the
     public of $0.10 for each warrant.

7.   At the annual  meeting of  stockholders  held on  February  18,  1998,  the
     stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to amend the Certificate of
     Incorporation  to  increase  the  authorized  shares of Common  Stock  from
     10,000,000 to 20,000,000 shares.

8.   An income tax  provision of $182,400 was recorded in the thirteen and forty
     weeks  ended  May 4,  1997,  at an  effective  rate  of 6%  reflecting  the
     utilization of prior year net operating loss ("NOL")  carryforwards and the
     reversal of a valuation allowance for the NOL carryforwards  established in
     1995.  The  valuation  allowance  was  established  based  on  management's
     uncertainty that past  performance  would be indicative of future earnings.
     Income taxes have been  provided for the  thirteen  and  thirty-nine  weeks
     ended May 3, 1998 at an anticipated effective rate of 34% for fiscal 1998.

9.   In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
     Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 128,  "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128).
     The  new  rules  are  effective  for  both  interim  and  annual  financial
     statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997.  SFAS 128 supersedes
     APB No. 15 to conform  earnings per share with  international  standards as
     well as to simplify the complexity of the computation under APB No. 15. The
     previous primary earnings per share ("EPS")  calculation is replaced with a
     basic  EPS  calculation.  The  basic  EPS  differs  from  the  primary  EPS
     calculation in that the basic EPS does not include any potentially dilutive
     securities.  Fully  dilutive EPS is replaced with diluted EPS and should be
     disclosed  regardless  of dilutive  impact to basic EPS.  Accordingly,  the
     Company has adopted  SFAS 128  effective  February 1, 1998.  Prior year EPS
     amounts have been restated to conform to the  Statement 128 presentation.

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

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The  statements  contained  in this  report  which are not  historical  fact are
"forward-looking statements" that involve various important assumptions,  risks,
uncertainties  and other factors which could cause the Company's  actual results
for  1998  and  beyond  to  differ  materially  from  those  expressed  in  such
forward-looking statements. These important factors include, without limitation,
competitive  factors  and  pricing  pressures,  changes in legal and  regulatory
requirements,  technological change or difficulties,  product development risks,
commercialization  and trade  difficulties and general economic  conditions,  as
well as other risks previously disclosed in the Company's securities filings and
press releases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

As of May 3,  1998  and  August  3,  1997,  working  capital  was  approximately
$25,296,000 and  $10,662,000,  respectively,  and the ratio of current assets to
current liabilities was 3.25 to 1 and 2.09 to 1, respectively.

As is customary  in the defense  industry,  inventory  is partially  financed by
progress  payments.  The  unliquidated  balance of these  advanced  payments was
approximately $2,601,000 at May 3, 1998, and $3,091,000 at August 3, 1997.

Net cash provided by operations during the period was approximately  $3,404,000.
This includes the  repayment of notes  receivable  from certain  officers in the
amount of $2,101,000.  Inventories increased approximately $3,629,000 during the
thirty-nine  weeks  ended  May 3, 1998  which is  related  to four new  products
transitioned  from  engineering  into  production  primarily  during  the  third
quarter.  Inventories  should  drop  during  the fourth  quarter  as  production
throughput on these products increases.  Unbilled costs and revenue on long-term
contracts in process  increased by  $1,338,000 in the third  quarter.  This will
continue through the fourth quarter.

Net cash  used in  investing  activities  consists  of  $1,284,000  for  capital
expenditures.

Financing  activities provided net cash of $7,441,000 primarily from the sale of
common  stock and common stock  purchase  warrants to the public on December 16,
1997 for the net amount of  $7,462,000,  $503,000  from the  exercise  of common
stock  options  and  warrants,  and  net  borrowings  under  the  bank  line  of
$2,500,000.  This was offset by reductions of long -term debt of $1,914,000, and
treasury stock acquisitions of $1,110,000.

The Company  maintains a revolving  credit facility with a bank for an aggregate
of  $11,000,000  which  expires  January 31, 2000.  Borrowings  in the amount of
$2,500,000  were  outstanding  as of May 3, 1998.  There were no  borrowings  at
August 3, 1997.

At May 3, 1998,  the  Company  had cash and cash  equivalents  of  approximately
$10,758,000.

The  Company  conducted  a review of its  information  systems to  identify  the
systems  which  may be  affected  by the "Year  2000"  issue  and  developed  an
implementation  plan to resolve the issue.  The Company  was  informed  that its
accounting  software and computer hardware is year 2000 compliant at all but one
of its  facilities.  Internal  staff costs,  as well as external  consulting and
other  expenses,  were  incurred to convert  that  facility as  discussed  under
"Results  of  Operations"  below.  Any  additional  cost of this  project is not
expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows.  The Company  believes its engineering  software is
unaffected by the year 2000 issue. However,  there can be no guarantees that all
the Company's  systems that may be affected have been  identified.  In addition,
the Company is reliant, in part, on the effective execution by its customers and
suppliers in dealing with the year 2000 issue; over which

                                        9

<PAGE>



the Company has no control.

The Company believes that presently anticipated future cash requirements will be
provided  by  internally  generated  funds,  as well as the net  proceeds of the
public offering, and existing credit facilities.

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

Thirteen weeks ended May 3, 1998 and May 4, 1997
- ------------------------------------------------

              Net  sales  for  the  thirteen   weeks  ended  May  3,  1998  were
$10,008,000 compared to $8,426,000 in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997. The
sales  increase of $1,582,000  (18.8%) is  attributed  to  additional  volume of
$855,000 from the acquisition of Metraplex, and increased shipments of microwave
components.

              The gross profit margin of 41.4% for the thirteen  weeks ended May
3, 1998 exceeded that of the third quarter of fiscal 1997 of 37.4% primarily due
to increased  absorption of fixed overhead  costs and  improvement in margins of
microwave components.

              Selling and  administrative  expenses for the thirteen weeks ended
May 3, 1998 were  $2,040,000,  an increase of $508,000 over the third quarter of
the prior year. Of this amount,  $260,000 is  attributable  to the operations of
Metraplex.  The balance of the increase  includes  $25,000 for computer  systems
upgrades at the  Herley-MDI  facility,  $100,000  in  personnel  related  costs,
$118,000 in performance incentives,  and $148,000 in higher representative fees,
offset by a reduction of $165,000 in legal fees.

              Other income (net of expenses) for the thirteen weeks ended May 3,
1998 increased $34,000 from the prior year due to increased investment income of
$29,000, and lower interest expense of $5,000.

              A provision for income taxes has been provided at the  anticipated
effective  rate of 34% for  fiscal  1998.  A nominal  income tax  provision  was
recorded in the third quarter fiscal 1997 after giving effect to the decrease in
the  valuation  allowance for net operating  loss  carryforwards  expected to be
realized.  A valuation  allowance was provided previously to reduce deferred tax
assets to their net realizable value for amounts which  management  believed may
expire unutilized.  The uncertainty that past performance would be indicative of
future  earnings  due to the  unpredictable  nature of the industry in which the
Company operates was a determining  factor in assessing the need for a valuation
allowance.

Thirty-nine weeks ended May 3, 1998 and forty weeks ended May 4, 1997
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

              Net  sales  for the  thirty-nine  weeks  ended  May 3,  1998  were
$29,633,000  compared  to  $23,080,000  for the  period  ended May 4,  1997,  an
increase of $6,553,000,  or 28.4%. Of this increase,  $3,077,000 is attributable
to the Metraplex acquisition. The remaining increase is due to increased foreign
shipments and microwave components.

              The gross  profit  margin for the first nine months of fiscal 1998
was 41.5%,  which  exceeded the gross  profit  margin of 33.4% in fiscal 1997 by
8.1%. This is  attributable to the mix of foreign  shipments which accounted for
31% of sales in fiscal 1998 as  compared to 26% in 1997,  as well as product mix
and increased absorption of fixed overhead.

              Selling and  administrative  expenses  for the  thirty-nine  weeks
ended May 3, 1998 were $6,302,000, an increase of $2,020,000 over the prior year
of which $857,000 is attributable to the Metraplex acquisition.  Other increases
include $277,000 in license fees for MAGIC2, $332,000 in performance incentives,
$156,000 for computer systems upgrades at the Herley-MDI  facility,  $353,000 in
personnel related costs, and representative fees of $237,000.

                                       10

<PAGE>


              Other income (net of expenses) for the thirty-nine weeks ended May
3, 1998  increased  $232,000  over the prior  year due to  increased  investment
income of $110,000, and lower interest expense of $122,000.
