                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                    September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996

Note 1. The Consolidated Financial Statements of Nuclear Research Corporation
have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of management, the
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
the consolidated financial position as of September 30, 1997 and June 30, 1997
and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. Certain information and footnote disclosures
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have either
been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Note 2.  Principles of Consolidation.
         ---------------------------

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Nuclear Research
Corporation, NRC Acquisition Corporation and Northeast Nuclear, Ltd.,
wholly-owned subsidiaries hereafter referred to collectively as the "Company."
Also included in the Consolidated Financial Statements are the accounts of
Measurement Dynamics LLC ("MDLLC").

In July, 1996 the Company entered into an operating agreement to form MDLLC, a
New Jersey limited liability company, the purpose of which is to develop,
manufacture, produce and sell temperature measurement devices and other related
products or services. Pursuant to the operating agreement, the Company
contributed property, in the form of cash, inventory and other business assets
having a fair market value of $300,000, in exchange for 42% of MDLLC. The
Company will produce temperature measurement devices to be sold by MDLLC under a
manufacturing agreement and will provide administrative services to MDLLC.

In connection with the formation of MDLLC, the Company recorded an intangible
asset of $414,000 which represents certain rights, proprietary information and
intellectual property contributed by the minority interest in MDLLC. The
intangible asset is being amortized over its estimated useful life of twenty
years.

All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method to determine its material
inventory costs. The following information will facilitate comparison with
operating results of companies using the FIFO method. If the Company's inventory
had been determined using the FIFO method at September 30, 1997, reported
inventories would have been $1,129,028 higher and reported net income would have
decreased by $14,599 ($.43 per share). The pro forma effect relating to the use
of the FIFO method would have resulted in the following balances for the
statement of operations presentation for the three months ended September 30,
1997:

                  Gross Profit                       $125,573

Note 4.  Costs and Estimated Earnings in Excess of Billings on Uncompleted 
         Contracts.
         -----------------------------------------------------------------

The Company recognizes revenues on several fixed-price contracts using the
percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to
date compared to the estimated total cost for the contracts. That method is used
because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of
progress on the contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating
costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change
within the near term.

Contract costs include all direct material, direct labor and indirect costs
related to contract performance. Provisions for estimated losses on the
uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are
determined. Changes in estimated job profitability resulting from job
performance, job conditions, claims, change orders, and settlements, are
accounted for in the period in which the changes occur.

The asset, "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
contracts," represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed.

Costs, estimated earnings, and billings on uncompleted contracts are summarized
as follows:

           Costs incurred and estimated
             earnings on uncompleted
             contracts                                $   235,604

Note 5.  Commitments and Contingency.
         ---------------------------

                  In September 1995, the Company's management ("Management") was
notified that MDLLC, Mark A. Sitcoske and a company controlled by Mr. Sitcoske,
Measurement Dynamics, Inc., had been named as co-defendants in a suit filed on
September 7, 1995 in Superior Court of the State of Rhode Island by Hanna
Manufacturing, Inc. ("Hanna"), a Rhode Island Company that previously employed
Mr. Sitcoske. The suit alleges that the defendants acted in violation of an
existing employment and non-compete agreement between Hanna and Mr. Sitcoske and
seeks to enjoin Mr. Sitcoske from his continued employment with MDLLC and to
obtain damages; however, Hanna has not yet sought a hearing to obtain injunctive
relief. The matter is now in discovery. Management expects that the resolution
of this matter will have no material impact on the Company.


ITEM 2:  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
         Results of Operations
         ---------------------------------------------------------------

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

                  During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the major
factors which affected cash provided by operating activities were the increase
in inventory by $648,848 and the net loss of $445,975 for the quarter ending
September 30, 1997. The net increase in prepaid expenses in the amount of
$159,831 was an additional factor affecting cash provided by operating
activities for the quarter ending September 30, 1997. The increase in inventory
was due to anticipated ship dates in the third and fourth fiscal quarters of the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1998 and was funded by an increase in the company's
line of credit in the amount of $775,000.

                  During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company
made capital expenditures in the aggregate amount of $45,500 to purchase
manufacturing and computer equipment and to make certain expenditures associated
with patents.

                  The Company's backlog of orders as of October 31, 1997 was
$18,500,000 as compared to $16,717,000 as of October 31, 1996. The Company
anticipates that shipment of the backlog will commence in April 1998 and will
continue through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. The Company's increased
backlog has resulted in higher levels of inventory at September 30, 1997 and is
expected to remain at the current levels for the quarters ending December 31,
1997 and March 31, 1998.

                  The Company believes that, not withstanding the Company's
recent performance, funds from operations and amounts available under its
present credit facilities will continue to be sufficient to satisfy the
Company's cash requirements in the current fiscal year.

                  The Company believes that inflation has had no material impact
on its operations.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

                  The Company experienced disappointing results in both sales
and earnings during the three months ended September 30, 1997, in part due to
(a) completion of several Government contracts during the fiscal year ended June
30, 1997, (b) decreased sales resulting from the Company's inability to ship a
new product to the Government, (c) customers' budget constraints, which have
delayed orders, and (d) a lower order base which Management believes is due to
competitive conditions. The aforementioned new product that the Company has been
unable to ship to the Government is currently in the first article stage of
testing and requires Government approval prior to shipment. The Company
anticipates (although there is no assurance) that shipments of this product will
commence in the second quarter of the current fiscal year.

                  The Company anticipates that it will continue to show a net
loss through at least the second quarter of the current fiscal year due to (a)
its inability to ship the new product to the Government during the three months
ended September 30, 1997, (b) a decrease in orders received, (c) delays in the
shipment of several commercial contracts, (d) delays in the Company's
realization of the benefits of its cost reduction efforts and (e) the Company's
continued investments toward the growth of MDLLC and the development of
opportunities for growth, particularly with respect to the Geiger Muller tubes
and nucleonic gauge product lines.

                  Sales for the three months ended September 30, 1997 decreased
to $1,227,208 from $4,412,917 for three months ended September 30, 1996. This
decrease in sales is attributable to the factors discussed above.

                  Income from operations decreased to $148,796 for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 from $1,054,643 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 because of reduced sales. Gross profit as a percentage of
sales decreased to 12.1% at September 30, 1997 as compared to 23.9% at September
30, 1996 due to the decrease in revenues described above.

                  Selling and administrative expenses decreased $179,208 to
$500,970 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the three
months ended September 30, 1996 primarily due to reduced sales and the Company's
implementation of a cost reduction program. As a percentage of sales, selling
and administrative expenses increased to 40.82% for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to 15.04% for the three months ended September
30, 1996 due to the decrease in sales.

                  Research and development expenses increased to $257,671 for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $216,251 for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. As a percentage of sales, research and
development expenses increased to 20.99% for the three months ended September
30, 1997 as compared to 4.09% for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
This percentage increase is due to decreased sales and the Company believes that
it is not necessarily indicative of a full year's results.

<PAGE>

                  Interest expense increased $21,844 to $75,501 for the three
months ended September 30, 1997. The increase can be accounted for by the carry
charges related to inventory increases.
