SIGNIFICANT EVENTS
On April 8, 1998, NAI Technologies, Inc. announced that it has signed a Letter
of Intent with DRS Technologies, Inc. for NAI to merge with DRS. NAI
shareholders will receive one quarter of a share of DRS common stock for each
share of NAI common stock held. NAI's 12% Convertible Subordinated Promissory
Notes and Warrants to purchase NAI common stock will be converted into or
exercisable for DRS common stock at the same one quarter to one exchange ratio.
The closing is subject to negotiation of a definitive merger agreement,
completion of due diligence, approval by the respective shareholders and certain
other conditions. The Letter of Intent provides for the payment of a termination
fee by NAI in the amount of $1.5 million in the event that NAI accepts an offer
from a third party to acquire NAI. Each company intends to send a joint proxy
statement to its shareholders and to hold a special meeting for approval of the
transaction. The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of
1998.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
First Quarter 1998 Compared with First Quarter 1997
The nature of the Company's business is such that year to year changes in sales
levels are predominantly due to changes in shipping volume or product mix rather
than changing sales prices. Net sales for the first quarter of 1998 were $13.7
million, a 5% increase when compared with $13.1 million for the same period in
1997.
The following chart provides the sales breakdown by subsidiary:

-----------------------------------
Total Telecommunications Segment 902 1,044 (14%)
TOTAL $13,722 $13,062 5%
===================================
</TABLE>
Sales in the Rugged Systems segment (net of intercompany eliminations) increased
24% to $9.6 million from $7.7 million for the same period in 1997. The increased
sales were attributable to 10% sales growth at Codar and 30% sales growth at
Lynwood.
The sales increase at Lynwood was attributable to strong bookings and increased
export sales from the United Kingdom.
Sales in the Systems Integration segment (net of intercompany eliminations)
decreased 24% to $3.3 million from $4.3 million for the same period in 1997. The
decrease in sales at the Systems division is attributable to a delay in
anticipated orders from the National Security Agency. The delay in orders is
believed to be due to changes in the Agency's budget as a result of priority
modifications by the Agency. Although delayed, the Company believes the
anticipated orders will be forthcoming. However, there can be no assurance that
such orders will be received.
In recent years the Company has reduced its dependency on the United States
defense budget by expanding its non-military and export business operations.
However, the Company still expects approximately 25% of 1998 sales to be
directly to the U.S. military or through prime contractors to the U.S. military.
The Company is not aware of any programs in which it participates that are
specifically targeted for termination or curtailment. The Company's products are
utilized on many different U.S. Government programs, which reduces the adverse
impact of the cancellation of a single specific program. However, changes in
future U.S. defense spending levels could impact the Company's future sales
volume.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Page 10
Sales in the Telecommunications segment decreased 14% to $0.9 million as
compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 1997. The decrease in sales was
attributable to a decline in sales of the MFT analog line treatment products and
the ELPA transmission products, which are sold to the Telco's. The Company is
exploring all avenues to increase its business level and has recently added
additional sales resources and restructured its sales and engineering
departments. The Company is actively expanding its U.S. and European distributor
network to increase sales.
The gross margin percentage for the first quarter of 1998 was 23.8%, as compared
with 27.9% in the comparable quarter of 1997. The following chart provides the
gross margin percentage by subsidiary.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1998 1997
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C> <C>
Codar Technology, Inc. 17.6% 15.9%
NAI Systems Division 23.3% 27.6%
Lynwood Rugged Systems Ltd. 27.1% 36.8%
Wilcom, Inc. 26.4% 31.6%
</TABLE>
The improved margins at Codar are attributable to continued cost reduction
efforts at the Company, as well as an emphasis to compete for higher margin
work.
The lower gross margin percentage at NAI Systems Division is attributable to
decreased shipping volumes and a less favorable product mix. Lynwood's margins
were lower due to an unfavorable product mix and higher engineering expenditures
in cost of sales due to the change in mix between Company-sponsored research and
development (which are charged to R&D) vs. an increase in customer funded
engineering (which are charged to cost of sales).
Wilcom's gross margins continued to decline as a result of low shipping volumes
and thus poor absorption of fixed overhead costs. Wilcom's margins will not
significantly improve until the Company's sales increase.
Selling expense for the first quarter of 1998 was $0.9 million as compared with
$1.0 million for the same period in 1997. This decrease is due to lower sales
commissions at the Wilcom and Systems divisions.
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1998 were $1.2
million as compared with $1.1 million in same period of 1997.
Company-sponsored research and development expenditures for the first quarter of
1998 were $0.2 million as compared with $0.4 million for the same period in
1997, which represents a decrease of 50%. The decrease is attributable to a
change in the mix between Company-sponsored research and development and
customer funded engineering. The Company expects that the level of the first
quarter 1998 internal research and development expenditures will increase for
the remainder of 1998.
For the first quarter of 1998, the Company reported operating income of $0.8
million as compared with operating income of $1.0 million for the same period in
1997.
Interest expense and amortization of deferred debt costs, net of interest
income, was $0.4 million for the first quarter of 1998 as compared with $0.5
million for the same period in 1997.
The Company accrued an income tax expense of $0.17 million as compared with
$0.15 million in 1997, which equates to effective income tax rates of 49% and
28%, respectively. The entire tax expense in both periods pertains to the
Company's Lynwood subsidiary located in the U.K. Lynwood's earnings are taxed in
the U.K. and, while the Company has a U.S. net operating loss carry-forward, it
is required to pay taxes in the U.K. The Company is unable to recognize the
future tax benefit associated with its U.S. operating loss
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Page 11
carry-forwards due to uncertainties as to whether or not a future benefit will
be realized.
For the first quarter of 1998 the Company recorded net earnings of $0.17 million
as compared with $0.38 million in the first quarter of 1997. Basic earnings per
share was $0.02 per share as compared with $0.04 per share for the same period
in 1997, based on a weighted average of 9.2 million and 9.0 million shares
outstanding, respectively. Diluted earnings per share was $0.02 per share as
compared with $0.04 per share for the same period in 1997, based on a weighted
average of 9.2 million and 10.2 million shares outstanding, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $0.7 million at March 28, 1998, as compared to
$0.6 million at December 31, 1997. Cash used by operating activities amounted to
$0.6 million in the first quarter of 1998, as compared to cash provided by
operating activities of $0.9 million in the comparable period of 1997. During
the first quarter accounts receivable increased $0.5 million and accounts
payable and other accrued expenses decreased $0.8 from December 31, 1997
respectively.
During the quarter ended March 28, 1998, the Company had borrowings of long term
debt and notes payable of $2.0 million, and had payments of long term debt and
notes payable of $1.3 million. Net borrowings of $0.7 million were used for
working capital purposes. Borrowings were required because the Company
recognized a significant amount of revenue in the last three weeks of the
quarter. The Company is trying to level out shipments to maximize cash flow.
As of March 28, 1998 the Company's outstanding borrowing under its secured
revolving credit agreement was $6.6 million. The Company has made payments
totaling $1.425 million ($675 thousand on March 31, 1998) in excess of
contractual requirements and has the right to re-borrow such amount if needed.
During 1998, the Company will lose the right to re-borrow such amounts at the
rate of $750 thousand per quarter. If no additional payments are made the
Company will be required to repay $75 thousand on June 30, 1998 and $750
thousand on both September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1998. The remaining amount
outstanding is due and payable on January 15, 1999. The Company does not believe
that it will generate adequate cash flow from operations to pay the entire
balance under its secured revolving credit agreement on January 15, 1999. The
Company intends to refinance all or a substantial portion of the amount due and
payable, either through borrowings or other capital sources and pursue all
available options in order that it meet its obligations. As of March 28, 1998
the Company was in violation of two of its debt covenants and has received
waivers from its banks.
Inflation
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with historical
accounting systems, and therefore do not reflect the effect of inflation. The
impact of changing prices on the financial statements is not considered to be
significant.
Year 2000
NAI is currently in the process of evaluating its computer software and
databases to determine whether or not modifications will be required to prevent
problems related to the year 2000. These problems, which have been widely
reported in the media, could cause malfunctions in certain software and
databases with respect to dates on or after January 1, 2000, unless corrected.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Page 12
At this time, the Company does not believe that it has a significant problem in
this regard. The cost, if any, to become year 2000 compliant is not expected to
be material.
This document may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on
current plans and expectations of NAI Technologies and involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual future activities and results of
operations to be materially different from those set forth in the
forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to
differ include, among others, changes in government purchasing policies and
budget constraints, competition, the continuity of booking trends, the absence
of supply interruptions, new products' market acceptance and warranty
performance.
