NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- ------------------------------------------

(1)  Accounting Policies
     -------------------

The accompanying interim financial statements and related notes should be read
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Andersen Group,
Inc. and related notes as contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended February 28, 1995.  During the third quarter of fiscal 1996,
the Company sold the assets, subject to certain liabilities, of its Dental
segment.  Accordingly, the Dental segment has been reported as a discontinued
operation in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.  In addition, the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended
November 30, 1994 have been restated to reflect the discontinuance of the Dental
segment.  The interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of
management for a fair presentation of such statements.  In addition, certain
reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial information so
that it conforms to the current period presentation.


(2)  Inventories
     ------------
 
Inventories consisted of the following:

(3)  Income Taxes
     ------------

Income tax expense (benefit) represents an estimate of the effective income tax
rate for the current fiscal year including adjustments to the Company's deferred
income tax liability for prior years taxes.


(4)  Dividends
     ---------

The Company's Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Stock") is entitled to accrue quarterly dividends ranging from $.1875 to $.4375
per share, based upon the operating income (as defined) of The J.M. Ney Company
("Ney"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Although dividends on the
Preferred Stock were earned at the rate of $0.1875 per share for the three
months ended November 30, 1995, no dividends were declared on the Preferred
Stock during the period due to restrictions in the Company's debt covenants as
discussed below.

Under the terms of the Company's 10 1/2% Convertible Subordinated debentures,
the Company is restricted from paying dividends on its capital stock after April
14, 1993 until such time as the Company's cumulative consolidated earnings, as
defined, reach specified amounts.

Through November 30, 1995, approximately

                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>
 
$1,215,000 has been accrued for this arrearage. On January 16, 1996 the Company 
consummated its self tender offer to purchase, for cash, any and all shares of 
its Preferred Stock by accepting all 299,561 shares of Preferred Stock validly 
tendered into the Company's offer. As a result, the Company will be reversing 
approximately $600,000 of the dividend arrearage in the fourth quarter of the 
fiscal year once the repurchase is completed.

(5)  Sale of Dental Segment
     ----------------------

On November 28, 1995 the Company sold the assets and certain liabilities of its
Dental segment to Phoenix Shannon p.l.c. of Shannon, County Clare, Ireland and
recorded a net gain of $3.7 million. The Company received approximately $15.6
million in cash; 200,000 Phoenix Shannon Ordinary Shares; a two year, interest
bearing note for $1 million and additional conditional consideration subject to
a review of net assets as of the closing date and the determination of other
defined contingencies. The assets and liabilities sold are presented below:

ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
         OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Due to the sale of the assets comprising the Company's Dental segment on
November 28, 1995, net sales include only sales from the Company's Electronics
segment. For information concerning the Company's divestiture of its Dental
segment see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the
discussion below under the captions Discontinued Operations and Liquidity and
Capital Resources.

During the three months ended November 30, 1995 net sales from continuing
operations totaled $5,379,000, which represents a decrease of $787,000 or 12.8%
from the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. As noted below, the
decline is due to revenue in the prior year from the Company's formerly
consolidated Video Products segment which was partially offset by growth in the
Electronics segment. Net loss from continuing operations totaled $333,000 or
$0.25 per share versus a loss of $669,000 or $0.42 per share for the
corresponding three month period in the prior fiscal year.

Sales for the Electronics segment, which is comprised of Electronics and
Ultrasonics divisions, totaled $5,379,000 during the current quarter and
produced a gross margin of $1,930,000 or 35.9% of sales. This represents an
increase in sales of 17.6% over the comparable period in the prior fiscal year
due to an 11.9% increase in the Electronics business unit and a 38.1% increase
in Ultrasonics resulting

                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>
 
from improved demand for its custom tanks and generators. Gross margin improved
from the prior year level of 25.2% of sales due to improved absorption of fixed
overhead costs, manufacturing efficiences and higher billing margins.

On May 2, 1995 the Company's Video Products subsidiary, Digital GraphiX,
Incorporated ("DGI") sold additional shares, equal to 81% of its outstanding
stock, to its employees and to certain of the Company's securityholders thereby
reducing the Company's equity interest in DGI to 19% and removing the subsidiary
from full consolidation.  Accordingly, only approximately two months of activity
are included in the current year, while nine months of activity are included in
the prior year.  The sales in the prior year's third quarter were $1,591,000.

Investment and other income totaled $137,000 for the quarter, a decrease of
$172,000 or 55.6%, from the corresponding period of the prior year primarily due
to nonrecurring gains relative to investments in cellular telephone companies.

For the three months ended November 30, 1995, selling, general and
administrative expenses totaled $2,080,000, or 38.7% of net sales, versus
expenses of $1,964,000 or 31.9%. The increase is primarily due to the Company's 
write-off of capital contributions to its subsidiary Seratronics, Inc. of
Nevada ("Seratronics") in connection with Seratronics defense and settlement of
a lawsuit brought against it by ALTHIN CD Medical, Inc.

During the nine months ended November 30, 1995, net sales from continuing
operations totaled $17,543,000, which represents a decrease from the
corresponding nine months of the prior fiscal year of $588,000 or 3.2%.
Increases in the Electronics business unit of $1,373,000 or 12.7% and in the
Ultrasonics unit of $606,000 or 18% were primarily offset by a decrease in
recorded revenues of $2,420,000 from DGI due to its elimination from
consolidation. Gross margins from continuing operations during the first three
fiscal quarters improved from 31.6% to 34.4% due to higher margins on both the
Electronics and Ultrasonics business units which was offset partially by the
absence of the high margins from DGI.

Investment and other income of $1,007,000 for the nine month period was
considerably lower than the $3,481,000 recorded in the prior fiscal year as the
prior year included approximately $3.2 million of gain from the sale of cellular
investments.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current nine month period
totaled 36.6% of net sales, versus an expense to sales ratio of 37.0% in the
nine months ended November 30, 1994.

Discontinued Operation
- ----------------------

On November 28, 1995 the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ney, sold
the assets, subject to certain liabilities, of its Dental division, to Phoenix
Shannon p.l.c. of Shannon, County Clare, Ireland ("Phoenix Shannon") for a
combination of cash, notes and Phoenix Shannon Ordinary Shares. The Dental
Division comprised a part of Ney. Ney received net cash of approximately $15.4
million, subject to a post-closing purchase price adjustment based on the
increase or decrease in the net asset value of the Dental Division from February
28, 1995 to November 28, 1995; a two year, interest bearing note for $1.0
million; and 200,000 Phoenix Shannon Ordinary Shares (valued at approximately
$1.7 million), as well as other consideration. The Company realized a gain of
approximately $3.7 million, or $1.94 per share from the transaction, net of
taxes and transaction costs.

The Dental Segment's operations produced net income after taxes of $44,000 and
$413,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended November 30, 1995
which represent income per share of $0.02 and $0.21, respectively. These results
compare to income of $217,000 or $0.11 per share, and $628,000 or $0.32 per
share, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended November 30,
1994.

Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, Ney will continue as the dental
alloy supplier to Phoenix Shannon's American subsidiary, Ney Dental
International, Inc.

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

At November 30, 1995, the Company's cash and cash equivalents and marketable
securities totaled $15,043,000, an increase of $10,154,000 from February 28,
1995 levels. The increase is primarily the result of the cash portion of the
proceeds of the sale of the Dental segment's net assets, less amounts used to
repay short-term debt. At November 30, 1995, the marketable securities consisted
of investments in non-investment grade high-yield municipal bonds, shares of
Phoenix Shannon Common Stock received as part of the proceeds of the sale of the
Dental segment, and the common stock of certain financial institutions.

As a result of the sale of certain assets of the Dental segment, which assets
were securing The J.M. Ney Company's ("Ney") $8.5 million demand revolving
credit facility, Ney was required to repay its outstanding borrowings
(aggregating $6,825,000 at the date of the sale). 

On June 5, 1995 the Company commenced a tender offer on its own behalf to
purchase any and all shares of its Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred
Stock (the "Preferred Stock") at $12.25 per share, net. The offer, which expired
on January 15, 1996, had been extended to enable the Company to solicit the
consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the 10 1/2%
Debentures to purchase all of the preferred stock

                                     - 8 -

tendered without violating the restrictive covenants applicable to the 10 1/2%
Debentures (see Part II, Item 3 below). Such consent was granted by the holders 
of a majority in principal amount of the debentures. As a result the Company is 
able to purchase all 299,561 shares of preferred stock validly tendered without 
violating the restrictive covenants.

A substantial amount of the products sold by the Company employ precious metals.
Prices of precious metals have been volatile in recent years.  A substantial
change in the market price of these metals may affect the Company's revenues and
profits.

The Company believes that its existing cash and investment resources and
internally generated funds will be sufficient to meet its anticipated working
capital and debt service requirements through February 29, 1996. Additional
financing, investment liquidation or restructuring of existing financing
obligations may be necessary, however, to fund the Company's capital and
financial commitments for the year ending February 28, 1997 and beyond. Ney
intends to utilize the assets of its Electronics segment to secure a revolving
line of credit facility to adequately support that operation's working capital
requirements. The Company believes that funds from operations, existing
investments and potential future financing will be sufficient to meet its
requirements, but there can be no assurance as to the availability of future
financing or the terms thereof.

The Indenture relating to the Company's 10 1/2% convertible subordinated
debentures contains a covenant which restricts the payment of dividends on or
repurchases or redemptions of the Company's capital stock (the "Restrictive
Covenant"). The Company is prohibited by this covenant from making such payments
on the Preferred Stock. However, as discussed above, because the Company
received the consent of the debentureholders to purchase up to 300,000 shares of
Preferred Stock tendered into the Company's self tender offer, the Company will
be able to purchase the 299,561 shares tendered without violating the
Restrictive Covenant.

After giving effect to this repurchase of Preferred Stock, however, the Company
will only be permitted to pay dividends on or redeem the Preferred Stock to the
extent by which cumulative consolidated net income (as defined) earned after the
third quarter of fiscal 1996 exceeds approximately $2,900,000. Further, the
Company is prohibited under the Indenture relating to its 1979 and 1983
Industrial Development Bonds from issuing additional long-term debt with certain
exceptions (as defined), unless (1) its average annual pre-tax income for the
three preceding fiscal years (as defined), shall have equaled at least 1.6 times
the sum of the annual interest charges (as defined) or (2) its pre-tax income
(as defined) for a twelve calendar month period, ended not more than six months
prior to the issuance of the additional long-term debt, shall have equaled at
least three times the sum of the annual interest charges (as defined) on such
long-term debt.

PART II:   OTHER INFORMATION
- ----------------------------

ITEM 3:  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

         As discussed above in Note 4, Dividends and in the Liquidity
         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
         Financial Condition, the Company is not permitted to pay dividends on
         or repurchase or redeem any of its capital stock. As a result of this
         restriction, the Company was precluded from paying dividends earned on
         its Preferred Stock for each of the four quarters in fiscal years 1994
         and 1995, respectively, and is precluded from paying dividends earned
         on its Preferred Stock for the quarters ended May 31, August 31 and
         November 30, 1995. These dividends are ordinarily payable within 45
         days after the end of the quarter. The November 30, 1995 quarterly
         dividend, which was in the amount of $.1875 per share, was in arrears
         on January 15, 1996. The aggregate arrearage for all dividends
         (including that payable on January 15, 1996) is approximately
         $1,215,000. As discussed above under Note 4 to the Notes to
         Consolidated Financial Statements, as a result of the pending
         repurchase of shares of Preferred Stock tendered into the Company's
         self tender offer, the Company will be reversing approximately $600,000
         of the dividend arrearage.

         As of October 16, 1994, the Company was in arrears for six consecutive
         quarters on the payment of the dividends on the Preferred Stock. The
         terms of the Preferred Stock provide that once the Company is in
         arrears on the payment of the dividends on the Preferred Stock for six
         consecutive quarters, the holders of the Preferred Stock, voting
         together as a class, are entitled to elect one additional director to
         the Company's Board of Directors at any annual meeting of shareholders
         or a special meeting held in place thereof, or at a special meeting of
         the holders of the Preferred Stock. If and when the dividends which are
         in arrears on the Preferred Stock shall have been paid or declared and
         set apart for payment, the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock
         to elect such additional director shall cease (but always subject to
         the same provisions for the vesting of such voting rights in the case
         of any similar future arrearages in dividends), and the term of office
         of any person elected director by the holders of the Preferred Stock
         shall terminate. As of January 16, 1996, no special meeting of the
         preferred stockholders has been held or scheduled.


ITEM 4:  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         The Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on November 16, 1995 in
         connection with which proxies for election of Directors' were solicited
         pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
         amended. The meeting had been postponed to November 16, 1995 from its
         rescheduled date of September 20, 1995. Originally, the meeting was
         scheduled for June 21, 1995.


ITEM 6:  EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K

         (a)  None

         (b)  Current report on Form 8-K was filed on December 13, 1995
              reporting the divestiture of the assets, subject to certain
              liabilities of the Company's Dental Segment.
