TOGETHER WITH REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS





REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and
  Shareholders of XEL Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of XEL CORPORATION 
(a Colorado corporation) and subsidiary as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and 
the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' investment and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.  These 
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on 
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of XEL Corporation and subsidiary 
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their 
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.


As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 1992, 
the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes.

arrangements which mature at various dates through January 1999.  Principal plus
interest (ranging from 8.8% to 13%) is paid monthly on the obligations.  The 
amounts due under these arrangements are collateralized by the related equipment
under the leasing arrangements.

During 1992, the Company established two bank lines of credit.  A $1,500,000 
line of credit, bearing interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% in 1992 and the 
prime rate plus 1.00% in 1993 (7.00% at December 31, 1993) is secured by 
accounts receivable and inventory.  There were no amounts outstanding under this
line of credit at December 31, 1993 or 1992.  The Company also had a line of 
credit totaling $500,000 bearing interest at the prime rate plus 2.25% in 1992 
which was secured by equipment.  At December 31, 1992, the Company had $87,000 
outstanding under this line of credit which was paid in 1993 when it expired.  
The Company did not renew this line of credit of 1993.  During 1994, the line of
credit was extended to $3,000,000 and bears interest at prime plus .75%.  
Amounts borrowed under the line of credit are secured by accounts receivable and
inventories.  There were no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at 
December 31, 1994 or 1993. 

In October 1994, the Company purchased a building and land for $1,750,000.  The 
mortgage payable plus interest at 8.5% is due in monthly installments through 
November 2001.  At December 31, 1994, approximately $1,338,000 was outstanding 
on the mortgage payable. 

In conjunction with the building purchase, the Company purchased land located 
adjacent to the new building for $245,000.  The mortgage payable plus interest 
at 9% is due in annual installments through August 1997.  At December 31, 1994, 
approximately $200,000 was outstanding on the mortgage payable. 


In December 1994, the Company borrowed $250,000 from the City of Aurora 
("City").  The note, plus accrued interest at 6%, matures in December 1999.  The
Company's obligation on the note is reduced for the amount of sales and use 
taxes, as defined, paid to the city during the loan period.  Additionally, the 
Company has agreed to maintain certain levels of business, as defined, during 
the loan period.  At December 31, 1994, $250,000 was outstanding under this 
note. 

(4) OPERATING LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Company leases its office and manufacturing facilities under a noncancelable
lease agreement expiring in September 1997.  The Company also leases various 
other equipment under operating lease agreements which run through 1999.

Future minimum annual lease payments required under these leases, as of 
December 31, 1994, are as follows (in thousands):

       Year ending December 31-
             1995                       $   365
             1996                           364
             1997                           298
             1998                           166

                                        -------
                                         $1,346


Operating lease expense was approximately $280,000, $255,000 and $321,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

During 1994, the Company purchased a building (Note 3) and intends to move 
in 1995.  The existing facility has a lease commitment until 1997, however, the 
Company intends to sublease the existing facility at an amount approximating the
current minimum lease payments until the lease expires.

(5) PREFERRED STOCK
Preferred shareholders are entitled to a liquidation preference of $4 per share 
plus all declared and unpaid preferred stock dividends.  The liquidation value 
of the preferred stock at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, was approximately 
$0, $0 and $936,000, respectively.  The preferred stock is noncumulative; 
however, dividends must be paid on each preferred share before being paid on 
common shares.

Under the amended preferred stock redemption agreement negotiated in 1990, the 
Company was required to redeem one-sixth of the preferred stock on each June 30 
and December 31 beginning in December 1990 and ending in June 1993.  The 
redemption price ($2.85 per share) may be paid 50% in cash, and 50% in debt, 
however the required cash payment is limited to the greater of 45% of the cash 
balance of the Company, or the cash balance of the Company less $500,000.  In 
the event the cash portion of the redemption is limited, as discussed above, the
portion unpaid will be included in the debt portion.

Debt incurred in the redemption of the preferred stock is unsecured, and bears 
interest at 10% payable annually with the principal amount due three years from 
the date of the redemption.  All debt incurred in connection with the redemption
is convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at $2.85 per share.

(a) These balances include the current debt maturities at December 31, 
1994 and 1993 of $333,000 and $667,000, respectively.

(6) STOCK OPTIONS
The Company adopted an Equity Incentive Plan in 1994 for key officers, employees
and directors covering 250,000 shares of common stock.  This Plan replaced both 
the Nonqualified Stock Option Plan and the Incentive Stock Option Plan, both of 
which expired in 1994 after a ten-year mandatory life.

As of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, nonqualified stock options to purchase 
85,500,  67,500 and 52,500 shares of common stock, respectively, were 
outstanding.  Of this number at December 31, 1994, options to purchase 67,500 
shares of common stock at $2 per share were outstanding under the Nonqualified 
Stock Option Plan and options to purchase 18,000 shares of common stock at $4 
per share were outstanding under the Equity Incentive Plan.  All options granted
vest over time periods up to two years and expire ten years after the grant 
date. 

Under the terms of both plans, the purchase price of incentive stock options 
granted must be at least equal to the fair market value of the common stock at 
the date of grant unless the purchaser owns more than 10% of the total combined 
voting power of all classes of stock, in which case the purchase price must be 
at least 110% of the fair market value at the date of grant.  Options granted 
vest over periods up to four years, and expire in 10 years.



Options granted under the incentive stock option plan are as follows:

(7) INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, 
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109") effective January 1, 1992 resulting 
in a $412,000 benefit which has been reported as a cumulative effect of a change
in accounting principle in the accompanying 1992 statement of income.  SFAS 109 
establishes accounting and reporting standards for recording the tax effects of 
differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported 
amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of 
differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and 
liabilities given the provisions of the enacted tax laws.  The net deferred tax 
asset is comprised of the following (in thousands):

The Company did not record any valuation allowances against deferred tax assets 
at December 31, 1994, 1993 or 1992, as management expects these assets to be 
realized against future taxable income.

(8) MAJOR CUSTOMER
During 1994, approximately 72% and 23%, respectively, of net sales were to GTE 
and Regional Bell operating companies.  During 1993 and 1992, approximately 63% 
and 78%, respectively, of net sales were to GTE and affiliated companies.  Trade
receivables of approximately $3,624,000 and $2,862,000 at December 31, 1994 and 
1993, respectively, were due from GTE.  Additionally, trade receivables of 
approximately $618,000 and $826,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively,
were due from Regional Bell operating companies.

(9) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
On January 1, 1985, the Company adopted a 401(k) retirement and savings plan 
(the "Plan").  The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially 
all employees of the Company who complete at least six months of service.  The 
Plan's administrators are officers of the Company.  The Company may contribute 
to the Plan from its current or accumulated net profits.  Contributions made by 
the Company were $74,000, $41,000 and $27,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, 
respectively.

Additionally, the Company has a deferred compensation plan covering the officers
of the Company.  Participating officers, who may contribute up to 10% of their 
salary and any portion of any bonus granted by the Company, elected to defer 
$126,000, $75,000 and $48,000 at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
The Company may make a discretionary contribution equal to 25% of the bonus 
amount deferred each year, and accordingly contributed approximately $24,000, 
$12,000 and $12,000, respectively, for each year.  The Company has funded this 
plan using key person life insurance as a vehicle.

(10) STOCK REPURCHASE
In January of 1993, the Company received life insurance proceeds (recorded in 
1992) covering a deceased officer of the Company.  Under the terms of the 
deceased officer's employment agreement, his estate had the option to require 
the Company to use up to 50% ($594,000) of these life insurance proceeds to 
redeem a portion of the 315,000 shares of the Company's common stock held by the
deceased officer's estate (based on the greater of $3.00 per share or other fair
value as negotiated in good faith).

During 1994, the Company reached an agreement with the estate whereby the 
Company purchased a total of 50,000 shares from the estate.  The purchase was 
done in two installments at $4.00 per share in June and $5.00 per share in July.
The Company is no longer required to redeem any additional stock from the 
estate.

Note to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements



1.) The financial statements furnished herein reflect all adjustments which are,
in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position and results of operations for the interim period.  Such adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature.



                          Gilbert Associates, Inc. and Subsidiaries
           Introduction to Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

On October 30, 1995, the Company completed the purchase of all the outstanding 
capital stock of XEL Corporation (XEL) for $30,000,000.  Under the terms of the 
agreement,  additional amounts may be paid to former XEL shareholders for the 
achievement of certain earnings and revenue objectives in the fourth quarter of 
1995 and the 1996, 1997 and 1998 fiscal years.  Any additional payments will 
increase intangible assets.

The following Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of 
Operations for the year ended December 30, 1994 and the nine months ended 
September 29, 1995 and the Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Balance Sheet as of 
September 29, 1995 are presented to give effect of the purchase of XEL.  Pro 
Forma adjustments made to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated  Statements of
Operations assume the sale was consummated on January 1, 1994 and December 31, 
1994, respectively, and the Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance 
Sheet assumes the purchase was consummated on September 29, 1995.

The following Pro Forma Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of 
Operations for the year ended December 30, 1994 and the nine months ended 
September 29, 1995 exclude a non-recurring write-off of $2,500,000, after income
taxes, for research and development in process associated with the acquisition 
of XEL.

The pro forma condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of 
future operations or the actual results that would have occurred had the 
acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the year.  The pro forma 
information should be read in conjunction with the Company's historical 
financial statements and notes, thereto, included in the Company's 1994 Annual 
Report on Form 10-K.
