                     Boston Acoustics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements


(1)  Basis of Presentation

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of interim period results.
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 such rules and regulations. The
Company believes, however, that its disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. The results for the three-month period
ended June 26, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for
the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's Annual Report included in its Form 10-K for fiscal year ended
March 27, 1999.


(2)  Inventories

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or

         Work-in-process and finished goods inventories consist of materials,
labor and manufacturing overhead.


(3)  Net Income Per Common Share

         The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 128, EARNINGS PER
SHARE. SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share (EPS) and applies to entities with publicly held common
stock or potential common stock. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution from common stock equivalents
(stock options and warrants). For the three-month period ended June 26, 1999,
there were 208,600 antidilutive shares that have been excluded from the
weighted average number of common and dilutive potential shares outstanding
as their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three-month period ended June
27, 1998, no antidilutive shares have been excluded for purposes of earnings
per share.

A reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and
diluted income per share, is as follows:

(4)      Segment Reporting

      The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN
      ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION effective March 27, 1999.  SFAS No. 131
      requires certain financial and supplementary information to be disclosed
      on an annual and interim basis for each reportable segment of an
      enterprise.

      The Company has determined that it has two reportable segments: Core and
      original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and Multimedia. Prior to fiscal
      1998, the Company operated as a single segment.

      The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that sell
      the Company's products to distinct distribution channels. Both segments
      derive their revenues from the sale of audio systems. They are managed
      separately because each segment requires different selling and marketing
      strategies as

                                       9
<PAGE>


      the class of customers within each segment is different. The
      Company's disclosure of segment performance is based on the way that
      management organizes the segments within the enterprise for making
      operating decisions and assessing performance.

      The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
      the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company does not
      allocate operating expenses between its two reportable segments.
      Accordingly, the Company's measure of profit for each reportable segment
      is based on gross profit.

Net sales increased 2 percent, from approximately $21,500,000 during the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 to approximately $21,845,000 during the first quarter of
fiscal 2000. The overall sales increase during the three-month period ended June
26, 1999 was primarily due to an increase in the core business which was offset
by a decrease in OEM sales of multimedia speaker systems to Gateway, Inc.
("Gateway"), a leading global direct marketer of PC products. During the quarter
the Company introduced the Digital BA735 subwoofer/satellite system with a
digital S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format) input. The Digital BA735
is a compact three-piece system featuring two micro-sized satellites and a sleek
subwoofer and is currently available through Gateway.

The Company's gross margin for the three-month period ended June 26, 1999
decreased as a percentage of net sales from 34.9% to 32.2% due primarily to a
shift in the sales mix of products sold, particularly the lower margin
sales of the Company's OEM Multimedia products as compared to the same period
a year ago.

Total operating expenses increased in both absolute dollars and as a percentage
of net sales during the three-month period ended June 26, 1999 as compared to
the corresponding period a year ago. Selling and marketing expenses have
increased primarily due to increased salaries and benefits relating to
additional personnel and increased cooperative advertising expenditures. General
and administrative expenses have increased slightly as a percentage of net sales
while remaining relatively stable in absolute dollars for the three-month period
ended June 26, 1999. Engineering and development expenses have increased both in
absolute dollars and as a percentage of net sales primarily due to increased
salaries and benefits relating to additional personnel, as well as increased
expenses relating to new product development.

Net interest expense has decreased slightly in absolute dollars during the
three-month period ended June 26, 1999 primarily due to lower interest expense
as a result of the Company's repayments on its line of credit borrowings.

The Company's effective income tax rate increased from 37% for the three-month
period ended June 27, 1998 to 38.3% for the three-month period ended June 26,
1999. The increase is primarily due to a smaller proportion of the Company's
income being derived outside the US thereby reducing the tax benefits associated
with the Company's foreign sales corporation.

Net income for the three-month period ended June 26, 1999 decreased from
approximately $2,019,000 to $1,139,000 while diluted earnings per share
decreased from $.39 to $.21 per diluted share. The decrease was primarily the
result of the modest sales increase, which was offset by the decrease in gross
profit and an increase in operating expenses as compared to the same period a
year ago.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first three months of fiscal 2000, the Company financed its growth
with cash generated by operations. As of June 26, 1999 the Company's working
capital was approximately $27,660,000, a decrease of $1,810,000 since the end of
fiscal 1999. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to the repayment
made on the Company's line of credit borrowings. The Company's cash and cash
equivalents were approximately $1,537,000 at June 26, 1999. The Company's
cash and cash equivalents at June 26, 1999 decreased by approximately
$559,000 from March 27, 1999 primarily due to the purchase of land adjacent
to the Company's corporate headquarters facility, tooling expenditures
related to new products and the repayments made on the Company's line of
credit borrowings. Current indebtedness increased by approximately $98,000
primarily as a result of increases in accounts payable and other accrued
expenses. The Company has two lines of credit with two banking institutions
totaling $26,500,000. At June 26, 1999 the Company had borrowings totaling
$11,500,000 under its $25 million revolving credit agreement.

The Company believes that its current resources are adequate to meet its
requirements for working capital and capital expenditures through fiscal 2000.

Significant Customers

The Company's financial results for the three-month period ending June 26, 1999
include significant OEM sales of multimedia speaker systems to Gateway. These
sales are pursuant to the purchase agreement between Gateway and Boston
Acoustics, Inc. At June 26, 1999 the Company was in negotiation with Gateway
to extend the date of the agreement. Since this purchase agreement with
Gateway does not contain minimum or scheduled purchase requirements, purchase
orders by Gateway may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter over
the terms of the agreement. Although the Company expects Gateway to continue
as a significant customer, the Company anticipates a decline in the quantity
of products to be sold to Gateway during fiscal 2000. The loss of Gateway as
a customer or any significant portion of orders from Gateway could have a
material adverse affect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition. In addition, the Company also could be materially
adversely affected by any substantial work stoppage or interruption of
production at Gateway or if Gateway were to reduce or cease conducting
operations.

Year 2000 Compliance

The Company has undertaken an internal assessment of its operations, including
its information and financial systems and its manufacturing equipment in order
to determine the extent to which the Company may be adversely affected by Year
2000 issues. During February 1999, the Company updated its computer systems and
applications to improve the scalability and functionality of the Company's
overall manufacturing, planning and inventory related systems and to ensure that
they are Year 2000 compliant. The Company believes that the Company's updated
computer system will be Year 2000 compliant. The financial impact to the Company
of its Year 2000 compliance programs has not been and is not anticipated to be
material to its financial position or results of operations in any given year.
The Company also commenced a self-assessment survey of its suppliers' Year 2000
compliance status during fiscal 1999 and has received responses from
approximately 67 percent of these suppliers. While the Company does not believe
it will suffer any major effects from the Year 2000 issue, it is possible that
such effects could materially impact future financial results, or cause reported
financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future operating
results or future financial condition. In addition, if any of the Company's
significant customers or suppliers do not successfully and in a timely manner
achieve Year 2000 compliance, the Company's business could be materially
affected. At present, the Company's contingency plans include but is not limited
to temporary solutions or work-arounds as part of the Company's Disaster
Recovery Plan and continuous review of safety stock levels and shipment
schedules from all suppliers.

Possible Adverse Effect of Euro Conversion

On January 1, 1999, 11 of the 15 member countries of the European Union
established fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies and a new
common currency called the "euro." This represented an initial step in a process
expected to culminate in the replacement of the existing currencies with the
euro. The conversion to the euro will have operational and legal implications
for some of our international business activities. The Company has begun
evaluating these implications, but the Company has yet to estimate the potential
impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. The Company's
preliminary judgement, however, is that the nature of the Company's business and
customers makes a material impact unlikely.

Cautionary Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains certain safe
harbors regarding forward-looking statements. From time to time, information
provided by the Company or statements made by its directors, officers, or
employees may contain "forward-looking" information which involve risk and
uncertainties. Any statements in this report that are not statements of
historical fact are forward-looking statements (including, but not limited to,
statements concerning the characteristics and growth of the Company's market and
customers, the Company's objectives and plans for future operations, and the
Company's expected liquidity and capital resources and the Company's ability and
the Company's suppliers' and customers' ability to replace, modify or upgrade
computer programs in ways to adequately address the Year 2000 issue). Such
forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and involve a
number of risks and uncertainties, and accordingly, actual results could differ
materially. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited
to: the continued and future acceptance of the Company's products, the rate of
growth in the audio industry; the presence of competitors with greater technical
marketing and financial resources; the Company's ability to promptly and
effectively respond to technological change to meet evolving consumer demands;
capacity and supply constraints or difficulties; and the Company's ability to
successfully integrate new operations. The words "believe," "expect,"
"anticipate," "intend" and "plan" and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement
was made. For a further discussion of these and other significant factors to
consider in connection with forward-looking statements concerning the Company,
reference is made to Exhibit 99 of the Company's Form 8-K filed on July 18,
1996.
