1. Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, consistent with those applied in, and should be read in
conjunction with, the audited financial statements for the year ended
March 31, 1996 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim financial
information is unaudited, but reflects all adjustments consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of results for the interim
periods presented. For financial reporting purposes, the Company
reports on a 13 or 14 week quarter and a 52 or 53 week year ending on
the Sunday closest to March 31.

3. Lines of Credit
The Company had $5,000,000 available to borrow under the line. The line
of credit expires on October 15, 1997 and is secured by accounts
receivable. At Dec 29, 1996, the Company had no borrowings outstanding
under its revolving bank line of credit.
During the first fiscal quarter of 1997, the Company increased its
equipment line of credit with an asset based lender to $5,000,000
million. At June 30, 1996, the Company had borrowed the entire
$5,000,000 million which is payable over four years. At December 29,
1996, $4,400,000 was outstanding.

4. Earnings per share
Net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average
number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding using
the treasury stock method. Loss per share is computed on the basis of
weighted average common shares as common equivalent shares are
anti-dilutive.
5. Restructuring and Other Charges
During the second quarter, the Company's operating results were
affected by a decline in product demand and a downturn in the market.
In response to the downturn, the Company made the decision to implement
a restructuring plan which involved discontinuing the gate array
product line, downsizing the workforce and closing the recently
acquired new product design center.
The Company incurred a $1,862,000 restructuring charge during the
second quarter. The charge comprises: employee termination costs
associated with reductions in the workforce of $998,000, a design
center equipment write-off of $587,000 and gate array capital equipment
and wafer cancellation costs of $277,000. The Company's operating
results were also affected by production problems which resulted in
$1,800,000 of non-yielding product.
The Company also recorded charges associated with inventory and
doubtful accounts. A charge of $2,689,000 has been recorded against
inventory. The charge primarily includes $1,400,000 for gate array
inventories and $790,000 for specific inventories associated with
customer order cancellations and a decline in customer demand. A charge
of $2,500,000 has been recorded for doubtful accounts. The charge
includes a disputed amount of $1,200,000 due from one large customer
and in part due to the yield problems discussed above, and specific and
general allowances for aged gate array and other receivables.
During the third quarter, the Company recovered $880,000 from
settlements of the disputed accounts receivable.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation
Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in
this document are forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and
uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties set forth below under
"Factors Affecting Future results."
Results of Operations - Third Quarter of Fiscal 1997 Compared to Third Quarter
of Fiscal 1996
Net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 were $15.1 million compared to
$20.0 million for the same period of the prior year. Results for the third
quarter reflect the continued slowdown in the Company's business due in large
part to the concentration of the company's customers, the Company anticipates
that the decline in demand for the Company's products will negatively impact the
Company's results through fiscal 1997 and for the foreseeable future.
Cost of revenues in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 was 86% of revenues,
compared to 67% for the same quarter in the prior year. Cost of revenues in the
third quarter of fiscal 1997 were adversely impacted by rescheduling of delivery
dates and cancellation of orders by major and other customers, which results in
a lower actual level of production than anticipated and less than optimum
utilization of the Company's foundry. If the downturn in the Company's business
results in a further reduction in wafer fabrication activities, margins could
continue to be adversely affected.
Research and development expenses were $2,494,000 in the third quarter of fiscal
1997 compared to $2,521,000 in the corresponding quarter of the prior year. Due
to the downturn in the Company's business, the Company is currently evaluating
its planned expense levels for research and development.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,441,000 in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 down from $2,238,000 in the same quarter of the prior
year. The decrease was primarily due to lower commission expenses and reduction
in costs associated with the Company's exit from the gate array business in the
second quarter of fiscal 1997.
Net interest expense was $254,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, compared
to $63,000 for fiscal 1996, as the company's borrowings increased.
Net loss of ($2,133,000) for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to net
income of $1,655,000 for the same period of the prior year. This resulted in a
loss per share of $.08 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to $.06
profit per share in the same period of the prior year.
<PAGE> 11
Results of Operations - First Nine Months of Fiscal 1997
Compared to First Nine Months of Fiscal 1996
Net revenues for the nine month period ended December 29, 1996 increased by 3%
compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was primarily
attributable to increased sales of storage standard products, specifically, in
the first quarter of fiscal 1997.
Cost of revenues in the nine month period ended December 29, 1996 was 83% of
revenues compared to 69% in the corresponding period of the prior year. The
current period was adversely impacted by an increase in inventory reserves due
to the Company's exit from the gate array business and the cancellation of
orders by a major customer and less than optimum utilization of the Company's
foundry.
Research and development expenses were $8,228,000 for the nine month period
ended December 29, 1996 compared to $6,949,000 in the comparable period of
fiscal 1996 as the Company increased its efforts to develop new products. Due to
the downturn in the Company's business, the Company is currently evaluating its
planned expense levels for research and development.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8,236,000 for the nine month
period ended December 29, 1996 compared to $6,118,000 of the corresponding
period of the prior year. The current period was adversely impacted by an
increase in accounts receivable reserves of approximately $2,000,000 due to the
Company's exit from the gate array business and a reserve taken for a
potentially bad debt that was subsequently recovered.
Net interest expense was $936,000 for the nine month period ended December 29,
1996 compared to $787,000 in the corresponding period of the prior year.
Net loss was $9,655,000 for the nine month period ended December 29, 1996,
compared to a profit of $3,318,000 for the same period of the prior year. This
resulted in a loss per share of $.34 in the nine month period ending December
29, 1996 compared to a net profit of $.12 per share during the same period of
the prior year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital was $13,809,000 at December 29, 1996, a decrease of $819,000 due
to the loss in the third quarter of fiscal 1996. At December 29, 1996, the
Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $13,468,000. While the
Company's cash situation is currently stable, business conditions remain
uncertain. The Company's line of credit of $5,000,000 has been renewed until
October 1997. At December 29, 1996, no borrowings were outstanding under this
line of credit. Although the Company has taken measures to conserve cash, it is
unable to predict when it will return to profitability.
<PAGE> 12
Factors Affecting Future Results
The Company's business, financial condition and results of operations have been,
and may in the future be, affected by a variety of factors, including markets
for its products and those of its customers, foundry utilization, concentration
of customers, its ability to retain trained design and processing engineers, the
development and introduction of new technology and products and the availability
of raw materials. The Company announced in July 1995 that one of its
semiconductor products was designed into the Zip drive by Iomega Corporation. As
previously disclosed, the Company has anticipated that Iomega will seek a second
source for this semiconductor product. Iomega has advised the company that IMP's
products will not be a part of Iomega's long-term product strategy and has
offered a proposal to disengage over a period of time. As a consequence, the
Company has ceased development of future generations of this semiconductor
product. In addition, the Company was informed by a major customer that such
customer is canceling its orders for certain of the company's products. The
above-described actions by these major customers, along with other cancellations
and delays by the Company's customers, will adversely affect the Company's
business and results of operations through fiscal 1997 and for the foreseeable
future. Any further decline in demand for the Company's products, or any other
decline in the demand by end-users of the products produced by the Company's
customers could lead to a further decline in, or cancellation of, orders for the
Company's products by its customers, which could adversely affect the Company's
business and results of operations.
In addition, the current business climate has, and will continue to result in
less than optimum utilization of the Company's foundry, which will adversely
affect the Company's business and results of operations. The Company has made
two significant reductions in force during fiscal 1997 that primarily affected
foundry employees.
The ability of the Company to transition from the fabrication of lower-margin
products to higher-margin products, including both those developed by the
Company and those for which it serves as a third-party foundry, is very
important for the Company's future results of operations. There can be no
assurances that the Company will be successful in these efforts. In this regard,
the ability of the Company to develop higher-margin products will be materially
and adversely affected if it is unable to retain its design and processing
engineers due to the Company's current business climate.
Although the Company believes it currently has adequate access to necessary raw
materials, it does not have any long-term commitments for the supply of raw
wafers and polysubstrates.

IMP, Inc.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Several purported securities class action and derivative lawsuits have been
filed against the Company and certain of its present and former officers and
directors based on events which allegedly occurred in the time period of April
24, 1996 through July 22, 1996. The lawsuits are as follows: Lee v. IMP, Inc.,
No. CV760793, California Superior Court for Santa County (filed September 17,
1996); Richter v. IMP, Inc., No. CV761560, California Superior Court for Santa
Clara County (filed October 22, 1996); Tancabel v. IMP, Inc., No. CV763405,
California Superior Court for Santa County (filed November 13, 1996); Roberts v.
IMP, Inc., No. C-96-20826-SW, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of
California (filed October 1, 1996); Garrod v. IMP, Inc., No. C-96-20834-JW, U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of California (filed October 8, 1996);
Azad v. IMP, Inc., No. C-96-20862-EAI, U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California (filed October 17, 1996); Turner v. IMP, Inc., No.
96-583, U.S. District Court, Delaware (filed January 2, 1997). In addition, two
shareholder derivative actions have been filed purporting to assert claims on
behalf of the Company against certain of its present and former directors. Walsh
v. Carrington, No. 15312NC, Chancery Court for the State of Delaware for New
Castle County (filed November 8, 1996); and Shockley v. Carrington, No.
CV762109, California Superior Court for Santa Clara County (filed January 15,
1997). These lawsuits, all of which include similar factual allegations, allege
that the Company and certain of its present and former officers and directors
issued false or misleading statements regarding the Company's business,
resulting in inflation of the Company's stock price, and that certain of the
defendants traded stock while in possession of material adverse information.
These lawsuits assert claims under the federal securities laws, California
securities laws, and California and Delaware common law. The plaintiffs seek
damages in an unspecified amount.
These cases are presently in the early stages, and no trial dates have been
established. The Company believes it has valid defenses to these claims, and
intends to defend them vigorously. There is no assurance, however, that the
lawsuits will be resolved in a timely or satisfactory manner or that the
lawsuits will be resolved without significant costs to the Company. Even if the
lawsuits are resolved in a timely or satisfactory manner and without significant
costs, it is anticipated that these lawsuits will cause management distraction
from the operations of the Company. Therefore, irrespective of the outcome of
the litigation, there could be a material adverse effect upon the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
