1. The amounts included in this report are unaudited; however, in the opinion of
   management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results for the
   stated periods have been included. These adjustments are of a normal
   recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
   included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
   accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Certain
   reclassifications of prior period information were made for comparative
   purposes. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
   conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
   Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended July 31,
   1995. The results of operations for the six months ended January 31, 1996 
   are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

4. On February 16, 1996, the Company completed the acquisition, to be accounted
   for using the purchase method of accounting, of PRC, Inc. ("PRC") an indirect
   wholly-owned subsidiary of The Black & Decker Corporation for a preliminary
   purchase price of $425 million in cash. PRC, with revenues of more than $700
   million for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, is a diversified
   information technology company that designs, develops, integrates and
   supports computer-based information handling and processing systems and
   re-engineers business processes for the U.S. Government, commercial customers
   and state and local governments. The allocation of the excess purchase price
   over net assets acquired between tangibles, intangibles with a definite life
   and intangibles with an indefinite life has not been completed. The unaudited
   pro forma amounts presented herein reflect the amortization of this excess
   amount over an estimated composite life of 30 years.
 
   On February 8, 1996, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to
   acquire Steerage Corp. ("Steerage"), which conducts operations through its
   wholly-owned subsidiary Sperry Marine Inc., from an investment partnership 
   for an estimated 2.2 million shares of Litton Common Stock, plus the 
   assumption of approximately $57.5 million of Steerage debt and 
   approximately $7 million of Steerage preferred stock. Promptly following 
   consummation of the transaction, the Company expects to repay such debt and 
   retire such preferred stock. Steerage, with revenues of approximately
   $145 million for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, is a provider of 
   advanced electronic navigation and guidance systems to commercial and 
   military customers. The consummation of the transaction is subject to 
   governmental review and will be accounted for under the pooling of 
   interests method.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS
 
     The Company reported sales of $739.4 million and $1.58 billion for the
second quarter and six months ended January 31, 1996, representing improvements
of 6% compared with the corresponding amounts for the prior year's periods of
$694.4 million and $1.48 billion, respectively. Operating profit improved to
$68.0 million and $142.1 million for the current year's periods compared with
$60.4 million and $128.8 million for the corresponding periods of the prior
year.
 
     The Advanced Electronics segment reported sales and operating profit of
$389.9 million and $32.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 1996,
compared with $378.0 million and $29.4 million, respectively, for the previous
year's second quarter. Sales and operating profit for the six months of the
current fiscal year were $790.6 million and $63.3 million, compared with $740.9
million and $57.8 million, respectively, for the six months of fiscal year 1995.
The improvements were primarily attributable to acquisitions completed during
fiscal year 1995. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Company
completed the acquisitions of PRC (see Note 4) and TELDIX GmbH, a European
defense electronics firm. These acquisitions will enhance this segment's ability
to provide more comprehensive services. Backlog for this segment was $1.78
billion at January 31, 1996 compared to $1.75 billion at July 31, 1995. The
Marine Engineering and Production segment reported sales and operating profit of
$286.2 and $29.0 million for the second quarter of the current fiscal year
compared with $259.5 million and $25.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal
year 1995. The respective amounts for the six-month periods were $657.9 million
and $65.9 million compared with $632.0 million and $60.7 million. The improved
results were attributable to increased construction activities on four Aegis
guided missile destroyers currently under construction and two multipurpose
amphibious assault ships. A fifth Aegis guided missile destroyer, nearing
completion, is scheduled to be delivered in the third quarter of fiscal year
1996. Backlog for this segment at January 31, 1996 was $3.64 billion, including
the award in December 1995 by the U.S. Navy to build a seventh multipurpose
amphibious assault ship and the two additional Aegis guided missile destroyers
awarded in fiscal year 1995. Backlog at July 31, 1995 was $3.31 billion. The
Interconnect Products segment also contributed with improved results as strong
demand for its electronics-related products continued during the six months
ended January 31, 1996.
 
     The Company completed the first half of the fiscal year with $133.8 million
in cash and marketable securities, compared with $110.7 million at July 31,
1995. Cash flow from operations provided the funds for working capital needs and
for the acquisition of the Inertial Systems Business Unit of Hughes Electronics
Corp.'s Delco Systems Operation in the second quarter. In connection with the
acquisition of PRC on February 16, 1996, the Company borrowed $400 million under
the existing revolving credit agreement with various banks at an interest rate
of 5.5125%. The Company has filed a Prospectus Supplement dated March 6, 1996 to
a 1991 Registration Statement (No. 33-44684) on Form S-3 to issue debentures
which will be used to reduce the indebtedness under the revolving credit
agreement.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
     On November 20, 1995, a jury trial began in the United States District
Court for the Central District of California in the antitrust suit filed by
Litton Systems, Inc. ("Litton") against Honeywell, Inc. ("Honeywell"). Litton
alleged injury to its Aero Products Division Ring Laser Gyroscope-based Inertial
Reference System business resulting from Honeywell's monopolization of the sale
of inertial reference systems for large commercial air transport, commuter and
business aircraft. Litton sought damages for injury to its business as well as
injunctive relief. On February 29, 1996, the jury rendered a partial verdict in
favor of Litton against Honeywell. The jury's verdict, which is subject to post
trial motions and, when entered, is subject to appeal, is in the amount of $234
million and will be trebled by law to $702 million. The Company's consolidated
financial statements as of January 31, 1996 do not reflect any amount that may
result from the resolution of this matter.
 
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
