                       Six Months  Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

                                     (Unaudited)

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

              These financial statements are unaudited; however, the
         information contained herein for STM Wireless, Inc. (the "Company", or
         "STM") gives effect to all adjustments (which are normal recurring
         accruals) necessary, in the opinion of Company management, to present
         fairly the financial statements for the interim periods presented.

              The results of operations for the current interim period are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the current
         year.

              Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these
         financial statements are adequate to make the information presented
         not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally
         included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
         accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
         to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
         (the "SEC"), and these financial statements should be read in
         conjunction with the financial statements included in the Company's

2.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

              Effective March 31, 1996 the Company sold its RF Microsystems
         subsidiary to Remec, Inc. for cash in the amount of $2,926,000.  The
         gain on the sale has been accounted for as discontinued operations and
         prior period financial statements have been restated to reflect
         discontinuance of this segment of the business.  A summary of
         operating results for discontinued operations is shown below:

                                            -----------        ------------

          At December 31, 1995, inventories included $2,881,000 related to
          discontinued operations which are classified separately in the
          consolidated balance sheet as part of  "Net assets of discontinued
          operations".

4.  INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

               Income per share of common stock is computed using the weighted
          average number of common and common equivalent shares of stock
          outstanding during the period.  Common stock equivalents consist of
          dilutive outstanding stock options and warrants and are calculated
          using the treasury stock method.  Primary income per share
          approximates fully diluted earnings per share for all periods
          presented.

1.   RECLASSIFICATIONS

               Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 consolidated
          financial statements to conform to the 1996 presentation.

Item 2
                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                   OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

GENERAL

     The Company develops, manufactures and markets satellite and wireless
communication products including VSATs (very small aperture terminals),
transceivers, modems, and other networking equipment.  The Company's proprietary
hardware and software are designed to support data, fax, voice, and video
networks requiring cost effective connections between geographically dispersed
locations. The majority of the Company's revenue is generated in the
international market through foreign distributors and sales representatives.
The Company's customers include government agencies, telephone companies,
multi-location corporations and others.

      Effective March 31, 1996 , the Company sold all the outstanding common
stock of  RF Microsystems, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, for $2,926,000
cash to Remec, Inc.. The Company also entered into a Technology Purchase
Agreement on March 31, 1996, whereby the Company sold certain of its
technologies, which were not part of the RF Microsystems segment, to Remec, Inc.
for $1,000,000 cash.  In addition, the Company entered into Development,
Manufacturing and Product Supply Agreements which establish Remec, Inc. as the
sole provider of certain components that are incorporated into the Company's
products utilizing the aforementioned technologies for a term of at least two
years.  The agreement also provides for joint development of other products by
the Company and Remec, Inc. which will require purchase of such products by the
Company from Remec, Inc. at specified market prices.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

     Combined product and service revenues were $9,836,000 and $17,303,000,
respectively, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared
to $9,992,000 and $15,916,000, respectively, for the corresponding periods of
1995, representing a 2% decrease and a 9% increase, respectively, over the prior
year periods.  Product revenues were $9,079,000 and $15,617,000, respectively,
for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared to $9,001,000
and $13,684,000, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1995,
representing increases of 1% and 14%, respectively, over the prior year periods.
The product revenue increases were due to the sale of technology to the
purchaser of the Company's RF Microsystems subsidiary in the first quarter, and
to shipments related to the Company's major contracts throughout the three and
six-month periods.  Service  revenues were $757,000 and $1,686,000,
respectively, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared
to $991,000 and $2,232,000, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 1995,
representing a decrease of 24% from both prior year periods.  Program management
services for both of the comparable periods in 1995 were bolstered by a
relatively large

contract, not representing core business, to provide services to a Malaysian
customer in connection with the design, procurement, and supervision of a
personal communications service (PCS) network.  The contract was completed in
1995.

     Combined product and service gross profit margins in the three and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, were 36% and 39%, respectively, compared
to 30% and 34%, respectively,  for the comparable periods in 1995. Product gross
profit margins in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, were 35%
and 37%, respectively, compared to 26% and 30%, respectively, for the comparable
periods in 1995. Profit margins in the comparable periods in 1995 suffered
primarily due to the Company acting as an integrator in providing Standard A
Earth Stations to a customer in Malaysia.  Product integration generally yields
a lower gross profit margin than product manufacturing. Service gross profit
margins in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, were 49% and
61%, respectively, compared to 66% and 62%, respectively,  for the comparable
periods in 1995.  During the comparable periods in 1995, the Company was
providing services to a customer in Malaysia in connection with a PCS network,
which provided higher gross profit margins than the Company's historical
services.

     Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three-month period
ended June 30, 1996, increased to $1,402,000 from $1,386,000, but remained
constant as a percentage of revenue at 14%.   For the six months ended June 30,
1996, such expenses increased to $2,873,000 from $2,685,000, but remained
constant as a percentage of revenue at 17%. The dollar increases in expenditures
in both periods in 1996 were the result of increases in expenses to support the
Company's growth in core product revenues.

     Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended June 30,
1996, increased to $1,377,000, or 14% of revenues, from $828,000, or 8% of
revenues, in the corresponding period of 1995.  For the six-month period ended
June 30, 1996, such expenses increased to $2,966,000, or 17% of revenues, from
$1,486,000, or 9% of revenues, in the corresponding period in 1995. The planned
increases in expenditures for both periods were for additional personnel and
outside services, both in STM and the Company's TMSI subsidiary, for strategic
new product development which should lead to penetration of new markets for the
Company .

     Interest income decreased by $37,000 to $177,000 for the three-month period
ended June 30, 1996.  Interest income increased by $93,000 to $558,000 for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1996, over the six-month period ended June 30,
1995. The decrease in the three-month period was due to a lower level of
short-term investment income.  The increase in the six-month period was due to
the recognition of interest income related to a long-term lease receivable in
Brazil.

     Interest expense increased by $74,000 to $188,000 for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1996, over the three-month period ended June 30, 1995.
Interest expense increased by $87,000 to $332,000 for the six-month period ended
June 30, 1996, over the

six-month period ended June 30, 1995.  The increases were primarily due to
interest expense incurred as a result of the Company's utilization of its
secured and unsecured lines of credit.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

stock of  RF Microsystems, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, for $2,926,000
cash to Remec, Inc..  A summary of operating results for discontinued operations

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    For the first six months of 1996, the Company had negative cash flows from
operations of $2,407,000, compared to positive cash flows of $766,000 in the
same period of 1995. The decrease in cash flows was primarily due to increased
investments in  receivables and inventories, partially offset by increased
accounts payable, the sale of net assets of discontinued operations, and net
income.  A major factor in the increase of receivables was the granting of
extended credit terms related to the Company's  introduction of its DAMA 10000
product in the South American telephony market.

    Cash provided by investing activities in the first six months of 1996
totaled $7,000. Sales and maturities of short-term investments exceeded
purchases of such investments by $400,000.  The acquisition of fixed assets used
$393,000.

    Cash flows from financing activities during the first six months totaled
$2,684,000 and included net bank borrowings of $3,500,000. The Company paid down
and terminated its $3,000,000 unsecured line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank and
entered into an agreement with Wells Fargo HSBC Trade Bank N.A. for a secured
$5,000,000 line of credit, of which $3,500,000 had been utilized at June 30,
1996. In addition, the Company borrowed $500,000, secured by the Company's
certificates of deposit, from another bank. Proceeds from issuance of common
stock related to the exercise of stock options totaled $75,000.  Repayment of
long-term debt used $52,000, and funding the increase in long-term receivables
used $782,000.

    Overall, the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments
totaled $8,979,000 at June 30, 1996, as compared to $9,095,000 at December 31,
1995. The Company believes it has adequate capital resources to meet its current
working capital requirements and capital expenditure commitments for at least
the next 12 months,


                                          10

including the expansion of its international marketing and sales efforts, and
the purchase of additional capital equipment for manufacturing and research and
development.

POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICES

    The market prices for securities of technology companies, including the
Company, have been volatile.  Quarter to quarter variations in operating
results, changes in earnings estimates by analysts, announcements of
technological innovations or new products by the Company or its competitors,
announcements of major contract awards and other events or factors may have
significant impact on the market price of the Company's common stock.  In
addition, the securities of many technology companies have experienced extreme
price and volume fluctuations, which have often been unrelated to the company's
operating performance.  These conditions may adversely affect the market price
of the Company's stock.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

    This report contains certain forward looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties.  Certain risks and uncertainties which may impact the
accuracy of forward looking statements with respect to revenues, expenses and
operating results may include, without limitation, long-term cycle involved in
completing major contracts, particularly in foreign markets, increasing
competitive pressures, general economic conditions, technological advances, the
timing of new product introductions, political and economic risks involved in
foreign markets and foreign currencies and the timing of operating and other
expenditures.

    Because of time and other factors affecting the Company's operating
results, past historical performance should not be  used as an indicator of
future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate
results or trends in future periods.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT

    STM WIRELESS, INC., ("Borrower"), a corporation organized under the laws of 
the State of Delaware and WELLS FARGO HSBC TRADE BANK, N.A. ("Trade Bank"), have
entered into this CREDIT AGREEMENT as of May 31, 1996 ("Effective Date").

                               I.  CREDIT FACILITY

     1.1  THE FACILITY.   Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
Trade Bank agrees to make advances ("Advances") to Borrower from and after the
Effective Date up to and until May 31 , 1997 ("Termination Date") in an
aggregate principal amount not to exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000);
provided, however, that the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Advances may at no time exceed the Borrowing Base as then in effect. Definitions
for those terms not otherwise defined are contained in Section 8 below.

     1.2  REPAYMENT; INTEREST AND FEES.  Each Advance shall be repaid by
Borrower, and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at those per
annum rates and such interest shall be paid, at the times specified in the note
(" Note") substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.  On the Closing Date
Borrower will pay Trade Bank a facility fee in the amount of $50,000. Interest
and fees will be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year, actual days elapsed.
Any overdue payments of principal (and interest to the extent permitted by law)
shall bear interest at a per annum floating rate equal to the Prime Rate plus
2.0%.

     1.3  PREPAYMENTS.  At the time of any prepayment (including, but not
limited to, any prepayment which is a result of the occurrence of an Event of
Default and an acceleration of the Advances) Borrower will pay to Trade Bank all
interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment. Any
Advance repaid or prepaid may be reborrowed.

                       II.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     Borrower represents and warrants to Trade Bank that the following
representations and warranties  are true and correct:

     2.1  LEGAL STATUS.  Borrower is duly organized and existing and in good
standing under the laws of the state in which it is incorporated, and is
qualified or licensed to do business in all jurisdictions in which such
qualification or licensing is required and in which the failure to so qualify or
to be so licensed could have a material adverse affect on Borrower.

     2.2  AUTHORIZATION AND VALIDITY.  The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party,
have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by Borrower and
constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of Borrower, enforceable against
Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

     2.3  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND STATEMENTS.  All financial statements of
Borrower and prepared by Borrower and audited on an annual basis by independent
auditors delivered to Trade Bank have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, and
completely and accurately reflect the financial condition of Borrower (and any
consolidated Subsidiaries) at the times and for the periods stated in such
financial statements.  All financial statements prepared by Borrower and
delivered to Trade Bank have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.  Neither
Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any material contingent liability not reflected
in the aforesaid financial statement.  Since the date of the financial
statements delivered to Trade Bank for the last fiscal period of Borrower to end
before the Effective Date, there has been no material adverse change in the
financial condition, business or prospects of Borrower.  Borrower is solvent.

     2.4  LITIGATION.  Except as disclosed in writing to Trade Bank prior to the
Effective Date, there is no action, claim, suit, litigation, proceeding or
investigation pending or (to best of Borrower's knowledge) threatened by or
against or affecting Borrower or any Subsidiary in any court or before any
governmental authority, administrator or agency which may result in (a) any
material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Borrower, or
(b) any material impairment of the ability of Borrower to carry on its business
in substantially the same manner as it is now being conducted.

     2.5  NO DEFAULTS.   No Event of Default, and event which with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, has
occurred and is continuing.
