LORAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of the Company, include all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
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 SEC rules. The
Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated statement
of income for the three months ended June 30, 1995 is not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. It is suggested
that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest
annual report.
2. ACQUISITIONS:
On May 5, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all the assets and
liabilities of the Defense Systems operations of Unisys Corporation ("Loral
UDS"). The previously reported effective purchase price of $803,400,000 was
adjusted to $874,387,000, net of cash acquired, as a result of receiving
additional net assets. The purchase price is subject to further adjustment
based on the finalization of the net asset values, and is currently under
review. Additionally, acquisition expenses of $6,000,000 have been recorded.
Pending determination of the final net asset values, included in Other
Current Liabilities is $114,680,000 purchase price obligation, which includes
an amount to reimburse Unisys Corporation for $97,682,000 of cash acquired in
the acquisition. The assets and liabilities recorded in connection with the
purchase price allocation are based upon preliminary estimates of fair
values. The acquisition was financed through commercial paper borrowings.
This acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase. As such, the condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect the results of operations of the
acquired entity from the date of acquisition. Had this acquisition occurred
on April 1, 1994, the unaudited pro forma sales, net income and earnings per
share for the three months ended June 30, 1994 would have been:
$1,704,400,000; $61,400,000; and $.72, respectively. The results, which are
based on various assumptions are not necessarily indicative of what would
have occurred had the acquisition been consummated as of April 1, 1994. The
pro forma effect of the acquisition of Loral UDS on the results of operations
for the three months ended June 30, 1995, is not material.
Performance under acquired contracts in process of Loral UDS and prior
acquisitions contributed after-tax income of $5,041,000 and $18,852,000, net
of after-tax interest cost on debt related to the acquisitions, and
incremental amortization of cost in excess of net assets acquired of
$21,197,000 and $16,704,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The decline in after-tax income reflects a reduction in
sales from acquired contracts in process of Loral Federal Systems, acquired
effective January 1, 1994 and Loral Vought Systems, acquired August 31, 1992.

4. DEBT:
In June 1995, the Company issued $150,000,000 7 5/8% Senior Debentures due
2025 under the Company's existing shelf registration statement. These
securities are not callable and are not subject to any sinking fund
provisions. The proceeds were used to reduce the company's outstanding
commercial paper borrowings.
5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
On July 25, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
two-for-one stock split in the form of a 100% stock distribution, subject to
stockholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of Common
Stock from 150,000,000 to 300,000,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1995 AND JUNE 30, 1994
On May 5, 1995, the Company acquired the Defense Systems operations of
Unisys Corporation. Unisys Defense Systems ("Loral UDS"), headquartered in
McLean, Virginia, is a leading systems integrator and software developer for
defense and non-defense government agencies worldwide, as well as a supplier of
electronic countermeasures, navigation and communication subsystems for surface
ships and submarines. Historical operating results of Loral UDS for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1994 include sales of $1.431 billion, operating income
of $157.1 million, funded backlog at December 31, 1994 of $1.098 billion and
approximately 8,600 employees. The results of operations of Loral UDS are
included from the effective date of acquisition. (See Note 2 to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.)
Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 increased to $1.504 billion from
$1.345 billion in the prior year. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1995
increased to $69.3 million or $.80 per share, compared with $55.0 million or
$.65 per share in the prior year. The results of operations of Loral UDS
contributed $3.5 million or $.04 per share, to the current quarter's earnings;
the Company's share of development costs of Globalstar, a limited partnership
formed in March 1994 to design, construct, and operate a worldwide
satellite-based telecommunication system, reduced the current quarter's earnings
by $3.3 million or $.04 per share compared to $1.8 million or $.02 per share in
the prior year.
Earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 are based on 86.9
million primary weighted average shares outstanding, compared with 84.7 million
in the prior year.
The sales increase was attributable primarily to the sales of the acquired
Loral UDS which amounted to $145.6 million. Sales also include higher volume of
$31.1 million for the United Kingdom's EH-101 Merlin ASW helicopter and $25.7
million for the Patriot Advanced Capability ("PAC-3") missile, formerly known as
Extended Range Interceptor ("ERINT"); offset by lower volume of $49.8 million
for the Multiple Launch Rocket System ("MLRS"). The Company has a diverse base
of programs, none of which is expected to account for more than 6% of fiscal
1996 revenues. The change in sales from period to period includes increases and
decreases on a variety of programs which individually are not significant to the
overall change.
Operating income increased to $146.7 million from $113.6 million in the
prior year. Operating income as a percentage of sales increased to 9.8% in the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 from 8.5% in the prior year, as a result of improved
margins due to operating efficiencies at the Loral Federal Systems business
acquired effective January 1994; offset by lower pension credit in the current
period as a result of the prior year's asset performance. The acquisition of
Loral UDS did not have a significant effect on operating margins.
Interest expense, net of interest and investment income, increased to $31.0
million from $22.9 million in the prior year. This increase was primarily due to
the $11.1 million impact of debt incurred to finance the acquisition of Loral
UDS. Excluding the impact of the Loral UDS acquisition, interest expense, net
decreased by $3.0 million primarily as a result of strong Free Cash Flow, offset
by an increase in the weighted average interest rate of debt. The Company's Free
Cash Flow (net cash from operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus
proceeds of stock purchases by employee benefit plans and exercises of stock
options) was $582.4 million for the twelve months ended June 30, 1995, of which
$161.8 million was generated in the quarter ended June 30, 1995. The Company's
weighted average interest rate of debt was 7.44% for the quarter ended June 30,
1995 compared with 5.07% for the quarter ended June 30, 1994, due to the
issuance of $650 million of fixed long-term debt in June 1994 and $150 million
in June 1995 and an increase in interest rates during the period affecting the
Company's commercial paper.
The Company's effective tax rate was 38% in the quarters ended June 30,
1995 and 1994.

<PAGE> 8
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Loral UDS purchase price was financed through additional commercial
paper borrowings which are supported by the Company's $1.2 billion revolving
credit facility. In June 1995, to take advantage of a decline in interest rates
and to fix interest costs and lengthen maturities, the Company issued $150
million 7 5/8% Senior Debentures due 2025, under the Company's existing shelf
registration statement. The proceeds were used to reduce the Company's
outstanding commercial paper borrowings. (See Note 4 to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements.) Based on the current financial condition of the Company,
management believes that the internal cash flows of the combined operations will
be adequate to fund the future growth of the Company while servicing interest
and retiring the principal of the debt.
The majority of the Company's foreign currency hedges are entered into at
the direction of the customer pursuant to contractual requirements. Any gain or
loss on the hedges accrues to the benefit or detriment of the customer and does
not expose the Company to risk. The remaining foreign currency hedges are not
material.
The Company's current ratio remained constant at 1.5:1 at June 30, 1995,
compared with March 31, 1995. The debt (net of cash) to equity ratio grew to
1.04:1 at June 30, 1995 from .71:1 at March 31, 1995 due to the acquisition of
Loral UDS.
Although the Company is not immune to the effects of declining U.S. defense
spending, the Company believes that its areas of concentration, its diverse base
of programs, complemented and broadened by the program base of businesses
recently acquired, as well as other business opportunities, such as Globalstar,
will enable the Company to offset overall U.S. budget decline impacts.
