GALILEO CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments except as disclosed in Note 7) considered necessary for a
fair presentation. The Company's accounting policies are described in the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 1998 Form 10-K, which
should be read in conjunction with these financial statements.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31,
1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts reported in previous
quarters in order to conform with the current quarter presentation.
2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As a result of a number
of developments which have had a materially adverse effect on the results of
operations, the Company incurred recurring operating losses, working capital
deficiencies and, as of December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1998 was in
violation of certain covenants of loan agreements with a bank. These conditions
raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.
As a result of the aforementioned, the Company has taken a number of steps
to improve its financial condition, which are summarized as follows:
Private Placement - On January 26, 1999, the Company completed the sale of
2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, together with warrants for an
additional 2,000,000 shares, to an investment entity formed by the principals of
Andlinger & Company, Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million. The
warrants are exercisable for a period of 7 1/2 years at a price of $1.50 per
share, subject to antidilution adjustment.
6
<PAGE> 7
Loan Agreement - Also on January 26, 1999, the Company's bank loan agreement was
amended to reduce maximum borrowings to $13.0 million through June 30, 1999 and
$6.0 million thereafter and to extend the term of the loan through October 31,
2000. The financial covenants were also amended, and the bank agreed to waive
specified previous events of default.
Sale of Non-Strategic Assets - The Company is attempting to sell certain assets
that are non-strategic to the on-going business operations. The Company is also
evaluating the possibility of the sale of the Sturbridge, Massachusetts
facility. There can be no assurance as to whether or how quickly the Company
will reach an agreement for the sale of any of the non-strategic assets.
Cost Reductions - During the three months ended December 31, 1998, the Company
terminated its Telecommunications business and further reduced the workforce by
49 employees. These reductions coupled with reductions in force of 61 employees
in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998 are expected to result in annualized cost
savings of approximately $5.3 million.
While the Company's management believes that it has taken the appropriate
steps to alleviate the liquidity issue, certain of these steps are contingent
upon future events, some of which are not within the Company's control. Actual
results may differ from management's expectations.
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE DATA
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted
earnings per share (amounts in thousands, except per share data):

5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
Total comprehensive income (loss) was $40,000 and ($4.1) million for the
three and six months ended March 31, 1999 and ($.9) million and ($2.0) million
for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998.
6. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
In January 1998, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with
a bank (as amended in August 1998 and January 1999, the "Loan Agreement"). The
Loan Agreement provides for a maximum commitment of $13.0 million through June
30, 1999 and $6.0 million thereafter with interest payable on a monthly basis at
the bank's base rate plus 2% per year. The loan, which is secured by
substantially all assets of the Company, also includes provisions which require
the Company to remit all of the net cash proceeds of asset sales (as defined) to
the bank. The maximum commitment will be reduced by an amount equal to the net
cash proceeds of asset sales and may not be reinstated. The then outstanding
balance of the loan is due and payable in full on October 31, 2000. The
outstanding balance of this facility at March 31, 1999 and September 30, 1998
was $9.0 million and $11.8 million, respectively. The carrying value of this
debt as of March 31, 1999 and September 30, 1998 approximated its fair market
value.
In compliance with the Loan Agreement, a $0.1 million amendment fee was
paid to the bank on January 2, 1999 in addition to a fee totaling $0.2 million
payable quarterly in 1999.
As discussed in Note 2, the Company was in violation of certain covenants
contained in the Loan Agreement. The bank waived these violations in the
amendment to the Loan Agreement executed in January 1999. As a result of the
mandatory reduction in
8
<PAGE> 9
the Loan Agreement to $6.0 million at June 30, 1999 and uncertainties associated
with the sale of non-strategic assets, the loan balance of $9.0 million and
$11.8 million is recorded as a current liability at March 31, 1999 and September
30, 1998, respectively.
7. NONRECURRING CHARGES
In December 1998, the Company recorded a charge of $1.8 million for costs
to reduce the carrying value of certain long-lived assets to estimated fair
market value primarily related to land and buildings, as well as maintenance and
engineering equipment, at the Company's Sturbridge, Massachusetts facility.
During the three months ended December 31, 1998, the Company terminated its
Telecommunications business and further reduced the workforce. The Company has
suspended all investments for this business and related activities. In addition,
the Company incurred operating losses related to the Telecommunications business
of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. No additional
losses were incurred during the three-month period ending March 31, 1999, and
none are expected in subsequent quarters.
The Company reduced its workforce by 49 employees during the three months
ended December 31, 1998. The Company recorded a one-time operating expense
associated with the reduction-in-force and other consolidation costs of
approximately $0.8 million. No additional reductions or costs were incurred
during the quarter ended March 31, 1999.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings - There are four class action lawsuits pending against
the Company and certain of its former officers alleging violations of the
federal securities laws. The Court recently selected a lead plaintiff as
required by the federal securities laws. The plaintiff must consolidate these
cases by filing a Consolidated Complaint by June 7, 1999. Upon receipt of the
Consolidated Complaint, the Company and individual defendants will have 45 days
to respond. The Company will vigorously defend these lawsuits, and believes they
are without merit.
Environmental Matters - Related to the completed clean-up and continued
monitoring of a previously environmentally contaminated area, the Company is in
the process of attempting to locate a suspected source of soil contamination
resulting from what is believed to be an isolated disposal of certain industrial
wastes on its property in an area which is now part of a parking lot. That work
is still in progress, and the final results are not yet available. However, the
Company estimates that the cost to complete the work now underway is in the $.1
million to $.2 million range, which has been provided for in the financial
statements for the period ending March 31, 1999.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999, decreased to $10.8
million from $11.5 million for the comparable prior-year period. The decline
in revenue is attributed to lower sales within the Scientific Detector
Products (SDP) Business of which $0.4 million is related to foreign shipment
restrictions on the Company's microchannel plate products by the U.S.
Department of Defense.
Gross profit (as a percentage of revenues) for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, of 41.4%, increased from 34.6% from the comparable prior-year
period primarily due to the impact of cost reduction programs and improved
operating efficiencies.
Engineering expenses decreased to $0.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from $1.6 million in the comparable prior-year period as
a result of discontinuance of the Company's Medical Endoscope Imaging
Products and Telecommunications businesses in 1998 ($1.0 million) and the
reclassification of certain expenses more properly classified as selling and
administrative expense ($.3 million).
Selling and administrative expenses increased to $3.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 from $3.2 million in the comparable
prior-year period primarily due to the engineering expense reclassification
mentioned above.
Interest expense-net amounted to $0.2 million during the three months
ended March 31, 1999 compared with $0.1 million during the comparable
prior-year period from increased bank borrowings.
For both the current and comparable prior-year periods, the Company's
effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to available
tax loss carry-forwards. The provision for income taxes for the current year
period relates to foreign taxes.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999
Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 1999, increased to $21.6
million from $20.0 million for the comparable prior-year period. The
acquisitions of Les Entreprises Galenica, Inc., ("Galenica") and OFC
Corporation ("OFC") in the second quarter of fiscal 1998, contributed an
additional $1.1 million and $3.8 million of revenues, respectively. The
increased revenues from the acquisitions was offset by a reduction in
revenues of $1.2 million attributable to the overall SDP business and
impacted by foreign shipment restrictions on the Company's microchannel plate
products by the U.S. Department of Defense and a reduction in
10
<PAGE> 11
revenues of $1.8 million related to the discontinuance of the Company's
Medical Endoscope Imaging Products.
Gross profit (as a percentage of revenues) for the six months ended
March 31, 1999, of 38.9%, increased from 33.8% from the comparable prior-year
period primarily due to the impact of product mix from the acquired
businesses and improved operating efficiencies.
Engineering expenses decreased to $0.9 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1999 from $3.0 million in the comparable prior-year period as a
result of the discontinuance of the Company's Medical Endoscope Imaging
Products and Telecommunications businesses in 1998 ($1.7 million) and the
reclassification of certain engineering expenses ($0.4 million).
Selling and administrative expenses increased to $9.0 million for the
six months ended March 31, 1999 from $5.8 million in the comparable
prior-year period due to, among other things, the inclusion of $1.4 million
of operating expenses and goodwill amortization from the acquisitions,
severance and other consolidation costs of $0.8 million, and the
reclassification of engineering expenses.
Interest expense-net amounted to $0.5 million during the six months
ended March 31, 1999 compared with $0.1 million during the comparable
prior-year period. The increase in interest expense is primarily related to
increased borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit.
For both the current and comparable prior-year periods, the Company's
effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to available
tax loss carry-forwards. The provisions for income taxes for the current year
period principally relate to foreign taxes.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Beginning in 1997 and continuing through the first quarter of fiscal
1999, the Company experienced a number of developments, which have had a
materially adverse effect on the results of operations. The Company has
incurred recurring operating losses, and, as of December 31, 1998 and
September 30, 1998 was in violation of certain financial covenants of loan
agreements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. See Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion.
On January 26, 1999, the Company completed the sale of 2,000,000 shares
of the Company's common stock, together with warrants for an additional
2,000,000 shares to an investment entity formed by the principals of
Andlinger & Company, Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million.
The warrants are exercisable for a period of 7 1/2 years at a price of $1.50
per share, subject to antidilution adjustment.
11
<PAGE> 12
In January 1998, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility
with a bank (as amended in August 1998 and January 1999, the "Loan
Agreement"). The Loan Agreement provides for a maximum commitment of $13.0
million through June 30, 1999 and $6.0 million thereafter with interest
payable on a monthly basis at the bank's base rate plus 2% per year. The
loan, which is secured by substantially all assets of the Company, also
includes provisions which require the Company to remit all of the net cash
proceeds of asset sales (as defined) to the bank. The maximum commitment will
be reduced by an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of asset sales and may
not be reinstated. The then outstanding balance of the loan is due and
payable in full on October 31, 2000. The outstanding balances of this
facility at March 31, 1999 and September 30, 1998 were $9.0 million and $11.8
million, respectively. The carrying values of this debt as of March 31, 1999
and September 30, 1998 approximated their fair market values.
In order to meet the required reduction of the debt facility to $6.0
million at June 30, 1999, the Company intends to sell certain non-strategic
assets. If the Company is unsuccessful in selling certain non-strategic
assets, the Company will need to obtain alternative financing to support its
current operations. There is no assurance that such alternative financing
will be available.
In compliance with the Loan Agreement, a $0.1 million amendment fee was
paid to the bank on January 2, 1999 in addition to a fee totaling $0.2
million payable quarterly in 1999.
As discussed in Note 2, the Company was in violation of certain
covenants contained in the Loan Agreement. The bank waived these violations
in the amendment to the Loan Agreement executed in January 1999. As a result
of the mandatory reduction in the Loan Agreement to $6.0 million at June 30,
1999 and uncertainties associated with the sale of non-strategic assets, the
loan balance of $9.0 million and $11.8 million is recorded as a current
liability at March 31, 1999 and September 30, 1998, respectively.
During the six months ended March 31, 1999, the Company decided to sell
certain assets deemed to be non-strategic to its on-going business
operations. The Company is also evaluating the possible sale of the
Sturbridge, Massachusetts facility. There can be no assurance whether or how
quickly the Company will be able to complete a sale of any of the
non-strategic assets.
Giving effect to reclassifying the loan outstanding to current
liabilities and assets held for sale to current assets, the Company's working
capital at March 31, 1999 increased to $6.4 million from a working capital
deficit of $3.4 million at September 30, 1998.
12
<PAGE> 13
Capital spending for the six months ended March 31, 1999, amounted to
$1.9 million. This compares with $1.7 million of capital expenditures for the
comparable prior-year period. Capital spending during the current six-month
period primarily relates to machinery and equipment to support the
development of new products at OFC.
Cash flows provided by operating activities amounted to $1.2 million for
the six months ended March 31, 1999, as compared with cash flows used in
operating activities of $1.8 million in the comparable prior-year period.
YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Such software may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result
in system failures or miscalculations leading to disruptions in the Company's
activities and operations. If the Company, its significant customers, or
suppliers, fail to make necessary modifications and conversions on a timely
basis, the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on Company
operations. However, the impact cannot be quantified at this time. The
Company believes that its competitors face a similar risk.
In December 1997, the Company established a corporate-wide strategy to
address and remedy technology issues relating to the Year 2000. This strategy
encompasses four areas: internal technology systems and applications used in
its business operations; manufacturing control systems; external systems of
vendors and service providers; and technology systems of existing customers.
The Company has completed an inventory and assessment of all critical
internal business systems and applications. With the exception of a system
upgrade at Leisegang GmbH, the majority of remedies consisting of upgrades or
replacements are complete. The Company expects to have all actions and
implementation complete by October 1, 1999, with ongoing testing and
verification to continue through December 31, 1999.
The current assessment process for the inventory, testing and
remediation of manufacturing control and data control systems will continue
throughout calendar 1999. Additionally, the Company is investigating the Year
2000 compliance status of vendors and service providers, and an aggressive
surveying has been completed. The Company will attempt to minimize risk and
exposure based on responses of these critical vendors and service providers
through alternative sources and contingency plans.
In the event the Company is unable to fully meet Year 2000 compliance,
the manufacturing operations in Germany will be adversely impacted. Any
potential future business interruptions, costs, damages or losses related
thereto, are dependent, to a significant degree, upon the Year 2000
compliance of third parties,
13
<PAGE> 14
both domestic and international, such as government agencies, customers,
vendors and suppliers. While efforts will be made to minimize risk, no
assurance can be made that companies in the entire supply chain will not be
affected. In that respect, failures and disruptions of the business process
remain a possibility, and no assurance can be provided that Year 2000
compliance can be achieved without significant additional costs.
Previous costs related to Year 2000 compliance were funded through
operating cash flows and the Company's revolving debt facility. Through March
31, 1999, the Company expended approximately $0.2 million paid to third party
consultants and vendors in remediation efforts. Internal expenditures are not
tracked separately. The Company estimates remaining costs to be between $0.1
million and $0.3 million.
The Company believes it is taking appropriate steps to achieve Year 2000
compliance. As previously discussed, many of the compliance issues rely on
the uninterrupted delivery of products and services of third parties.
Consequently, there can be no assurance of uninterrupted business processes,
or additional costs, losses, or damages occurring as a result of the Year
2000 compliance.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements concerning the sale
of certain non-strategic assets, costs of testing and verification relating
to Year 2000 compliance, costs relating to environmental clean-up, pending
legal proceedings and other aspects of future operations. These
forward-looking statements are based on certain underlying assumptions and
expectations of management. As could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q.
For additional information on those factors which could affect actual
results, please refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1998.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are four class action lawsuits pending against the Company and
certain of its former officers alleging violations of the federal securities
laws. The Court recently selected a lead plaintiff as required by the federal
securities laws. The plaintiff must consolidate these cases by filing a
Consolidated Complaint by June 7, 1999. Upon receipt of the Consolidated
Complaint, the Company and individual defendants will have 45 days to
respond. The Company will vigorously defend these lawsuits, and believes they
are without merit.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Related to the completed clean-up and continued monitoring of a
previously environmentally contaminated area, the Company is in the process
of attempting to locate a suspected source of soil contamination resulting

on its property in an area which is now part of a parking lot. That work is
still in progress, and the final results are not yet available. However, the
Company estimates that the cost to complete the work now underway is in the
$.1 million to $.2 million range, which has been provided for in the
