NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands of dollars, except for share data)
A. The consolidated financial statements at December 31, 1995 and 1994 and
for the three month periods then ended have not been examined by
independents accountants, but in the opinion of the management of Keithley
Instruments, Inc., all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of the
consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of income and
consolidated statement of cash flows for those periods have been
included. All adjustments included are of a normal recurring nature.
B. The weighted average number of shares and share equivalents used in
determining net income per share was 7,787,927 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1995 and 7,104,876 for the quarter ended December 31, 1994.
The weighted average number of shares and share equivalents used in
determining fully diluted net income per share was 7,834,149 for the
quarter ended December 31, 1995, and 7,104,876 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1995. Prior to the quarter ended June 30, 1995, fully
diluted net income per share had not been materially different from net
income per share. Both Common Shares and Class B Common Shares are
included in calculating the weighted average number of shares outstanding.
C. On December 5, 1995, the company consummated the purchase of the principal
assets of International Sensor Technology, Inc. (IST) of Pullman,
Washington. IST pioneered the development of laser heating technology in
thermoluminescence dosimetry (TLD) systems for personal radiation
protection. The technology has potential uses in radiation therapy,
nuclear waste management, radiation processing, environmental and
radiation-hard electronics applications in government, medicine and the
nuclear industry.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
(In Thousands of Dollars)
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
First Quarter 1996 Compared with First Quarter 1995
- ---------------------------------------------------
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 was $1,145, or $.15 per share,
up from $346 or $.05 per share reported in the first quarter of 1995. The
increase in earnings resulted from increased net sales.
Record net sales of $29,823, increased 27 percent from $23,525 in the prior
year's first quarter. Double-digit sales increases were noted across all
geographies and in all divisions, except Keithley MetraByte, where net sales
were flat versus the prior year. Orders for the first quarter of 1996 also set
a new record high. First quarter orders of $34,036 increased 22 percent from
the prior year's first quarter and 19 percent from the fourth quarter of fiscal
1995. $1,662 was recorded in initial orders for Quantox(TM), the company's
first product based on the process monitoring technology purchased from IBM in
1994. The Quantox orders were included in the company's backlog at December
31, 1995, which was at a new record level of $15,680.
Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased to 39.7 percent from
38.7 percent. This was the result of Quantox start-up costs and product and
customer sales mix. The effect of foreign exchange hedging on cost of goods
sold was to increase cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales by 0.3
percentage points in the first quarter of 1996, compared with an increase of
0.2 percentage points in 1995.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,530 or 15 percent
from the prior year's quarter, but decreased as a percentage of net sales to
40.1 percent from 44.2 percent. The increase was due to higher marketing costs
related to the market development and introduction of Quantox, increased
personnel and related costs and a seven percent weaker U.S. dollar.
Product development expenses of $4,096 for the quarter increased $891 or 28%.
This was due to increased costs associated with the development of the
company's next generation of parametric test systems, the development of its
new instrument products and the exploration of other new business
opportunities.
Financing expenses (net of investment income) of $159, decreased $55 from last
year's quarter. This was due to lower average interest rates on lower average
debt levels.
The effective tax rate was 31.0 percent for the quarter compared with 28.0
percent last year. The effective rate is less than the statutory rate of 34
percent due to the utilization of foreign tax credits and foreign sales
corporation (FSC) benefits. The effective tax rate was higher in 1996 than in
1995 because most of the foreign tax credit carryforwards were used in 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Cash provided by operations for the first quarter was $2,803, and was used
primarily to purchase fixed assets, pay down long term debt and pay dividends.
Total debt of $5,535 at December 31, 1995, decreased $578 during the quarter.
The total debt-to-capital ratio was 12.7 percent at December 31, 1995 compared
to 14.2 percent at September 30, 1995.
The company currently expects to increase capital spending during 1996 and
estimates capital spending will total approximately $9,000 for the year. The
incremental spending will be to expand production capacity and facilities.
This level of spending is subject to change based upon the company's operations
during the remainder of the fiscal year. The Company expects to finance
capital spending through cash provided by operations as well as utilizing its
available lines of credit. At December 31, 1995, the Company had available
unused lines of credit with domestic and foreign banks aggregating $26,138 of
which $6,530 were short term and $19,608 were long term.
