3.   REPOSITIONING COSTS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     As a result of significant declines in sales and profit margins in both
     electronic and magnetic ballast product lines during fiscal 1996, the
     Company conducted a review and analysis of actions required to reduce costs
     and improve future flexibility and profitability, largely focused on the
     lighting products business. Upon completion of the review and approval by
     the Company's Board of Directors, certain reserves were established and
     charges recorded in the year ended June 30, 1996 to reflect costs
     associated with repositioning operations, primarily for severance,
     termination benefits and asset write-downs related to facility closures and
     consolidation. Reserves were also established for estimated increases in
     warranty (primarily related to the electronic ballast product line) and
     other costs. During the first quarter of fiscal year 1997, approximately
     $1.9 million of cash outlays were made in connection with the repositioning
     reserves, primarily for severance and warranty.

     In July 1994, the Company's  Board of Directors  adopted a formal plan of
     disposal for certain businesses in connection with an overall restructuring
     program designed to focus the Company's resources on the core product lines
     and reduce debt. During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company had
     completed the sale of substantially all  remaining discontinued operations
     with the total net proceeds aggregating over $200 million, which was used
     to repay debt.

4.   LONG TERM DEBT AND BANK BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

     Effective September 16, 1996, the Company amended its Bank Loan Agreement,
     as a result of certain covenant violations, to adjust covenants to reflect
     the impact of charges associated with the Company's repositioning program.
     As a result of the amendment, the lending commitment under the Bank Loan
     Agreement was reduced to $170 million from $200 million. All other terms
     and conditions remained substantially unchanged. Due to the positive
     operating cash performance in the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the
     Company's borrowing rates will be reduced effective in the second quarter
     by fifty basis points. Short term debt rates previously quoted as LIBOR
     plus two and one quarter percent or prime rate plus one percent will be
     reduced to LIBOR plus one and three quarters percent or prime plus one half
     percent.

ITEM 2

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
- ---------------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ----------------------

    THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 1996 VS 1995
    ---------------------------------------------

    Net Sales and Gross Profit.
    MagneTek's  net sales  for the  first quarter  of fiscal  1997 were  $291.4
    million, a  6.9% increase from the  first quarter of fiscal  1996 at $272.7
    million.  Sales  in the Lighting  Products segment increased  by 11.7%  due
    primarily  to higher revenues in  electronic ballasts.   Revenue levels for
    the Power Supplies  segment increased  7.9% with a  continuation of  strong
    demand for  custom power  supplies in  Europe.   Motors and  Controls sales
    increased 2.6%  with stronger  results  in both  commercial and  fractional
    horsepower motors,  partially offset by weaker generator and standard drive
    sales.

    The Company's gross profit  increased to $54.8 million in the first quarter
    of fiscal  1997 from $43.1  million in  the first quarter  of fiscal  1996.
    First quarter results in  fiscal 1996 included the effect  of approximately
    $1.7 million of severance related costs.  The gross margin increased in the
    first quarter  of fiscal 1997  to 18.8%  versus 15.8% for  the fiscal  1996
    period.  Gross profit improvement for the first quarter of  fiscal 1997 was
    heavily  influenced by increased profit and margin in the Lighting Products
    segment.    Increased   production  levels  and  a   lower  cost  structure
    significantly improved fixed cost coverage.   Increased revenues and higher
    manufacturing  levels  also resulted  in  improved  results for  fractional
    horsepower  motors.   Gross  profit and  margin  levels for  generators and
    drives were  reduced due to  lower revenues and, in  the case of  drives, a
    higher mix  of standard  product with  lower margins.   Power  Supply gross
    profit levels were comparable to the year earlier period.

    Operating Expenses.
    Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $38.9 million (13.4%
    of  net sales)  in the first  quarter of  fiscal 1997  versus $37.8 million
    (13.9%  of net  sales) in  the  first quarter  of fiscal  1996.   Increased
    spending  was focused in Motors and Controls and domestic Lighting Products
    operations.    Motors and  Controls  reflected  additional marketing  costs
    associated  with  higher  levels  of motor  revenues.    Lighting  Products
    (domestic) included  administrative expense (consulting costs)  directed at
    process  efficiencies  to  reduce  both manufacturing  cost  and  inventory
    levels.

    Interest and Other Expense.
    Interest expense  of $7.5 million in  the first quarter of  fiscal 1997 was
    down  from $8.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996.  Lower working
    capital levels were primarily responsible for the reduced levels of overall
    debt and the associated interest expense.

    Net Income.
    The  Company recorded  an after-tax  profit of  $4.3 million  in  the first
    quarter of fiscal year 1997 compared to a loss of $3.5 million in the first
    quarter of fiscal 1996.  The tax  provision in the first quarter of  fiscal
    1997 was  $3.0 million versus a  $.9 million benefit recorded  in the first
    quarter of  fiscal 1996.   The tax benefit in  the first quarter  of fiscal
    1996 was less than the statutory rate due to the Corporation's inability to
    tax effect losses incurred in Germany for the period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
- --------------------------------

Effective September 16, 1996, the Company  amended its Bank Loan Agreement, 
as a result of certain covenant violations, to adjust covenants to reflect 
the impact of charges associated with the Company's repositioning program.  
As  a result of the  amendment, the lending commitment under the Bank Loan 
Agreement was reduced to $170 million from $200 million (see Note 4). As of 
September  30,  1996, the  Company had  approximately  $79 million  of 
available borrowings under the Bank Loan Agreement.

In  September  of 1996,  the  Company sold  the  assets and  liabilities  of 
its Jefferson Transformer  business for cash and  a long term note  
receivable.  The proceeds from the transaction were used to reduce borrowings 
under the Company's bank loan  agreement.   The Company intends  to focus in  
future periods  on the further  reduction of  working capital  balances with  
the objective  of further reductions in debt.<PAGE>
