*Raynet Corporation and subsidiaries' results are presented on the equity basis
  of accounting in fiscal 1995 versus consolidated in fiscal 1994.


CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

The company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112,
"Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" (FAS 112), effective July
1, 1994.  This statement changes the method of accounting for certain
postemployment benefits from a cash basis to an accrual basis.  Adoption of FAS
112 resulted in a one-time adjustment of $1.5 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, to reflect the cumulative amount that would have been
accrued had the statement been in effect in prior years.


EXTRAORDINARY ITEM - LOSS FROM EARLY RETIREMENT OF DEBT

On September 30, 1994, the company gave irrevocable notice to the holders of
its 9.55% privately placed senior notes of its intention to prepay this debt on
November 1, 1994.  Accordingly, the company recorded in the first quarter of
1995 an extraordinary loss of $7.1 million for the early retirement of debt.
The extraordinary loss was comprised of an estimated $8.1 million prepayment
penalty and deferred debt issuance costs of $0.5 million, net of a $1.5 million
deferred gain resulting from the termination of a related interest rate swap
agreement.  The prepayment penalty was estimated based on interest rates at the
time of notice.  When paid, the prepayment penalty was $0.8 million less, which
adjustment was recorded in the second quarter of 1995.


NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
No. 119, "Disclosure About Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments," which the company has adopted this quarter.  Currently,
the company has not entered into any interest rate risk management
transactions.  The company does not engage in foreign currency speculative
transactions.  The company has written policies that place all foreign currency
forward and option transactions under the direction of corporate treasury and
that restrict all derivative transactions to those intended for hedging
purposes.

The company operates in more than 40 countries worldwide, with in excess of
sixty percent of its revenues occurring outside the United States.  The company
attempts to limit its exposure to changing foreign currency exchange rates
through both operational and financial market actions.  The company
manufactures its products in a number of locations around the world, and hence
has a cost base that is well diversified over a number of European and Asian
currencies as well as the U.S. dollar.  This diverse base of local currency
costs serves to counterbalance the income effect





                                       5
<PAGE>   8

of potential changes in the value of the company's local currency denominated 
revenues.  Also, the company denominates its third-party export sales in the 
currency of the selling Raychem entity, whenever possible.

Short-term exposures to changing foreign currency exchange rates are managed by
financial market transactions, principally through the purchase of forward
exchange contracts (with maturities usually less than three months) to hedge
the non-functional currency denominated receivables and payables of the
company's operating units.  The related gains and losses are included in "other
expense, net," as they arise.  For the three- and six-month periods ended
December 31, 1994, gains and losses from forward exchange contracts used to
hedge receivables and payables totaled $0.4 million and $4.1 million,
respectively.  During these periods the company incurred total foreign exchange
transaction losses of $1.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The total 
amount of exposure hedged as at December 31, 1994, was $155 million, reflecting
hedging for trade and intercompany receivables, payables, and loans in 
non-functional currencies.

The company has unhedged non-functional currency translation and transaction
exposures in countries whose currencies do not have a liquid, cost-effective
forward market available for hedging.  Exposures, at December 31, 1994,
included $13.1 million in intercompany payables in non-functional currencies
and $5.5 million of net monetary assets in foreign countries with the U.S.
dollar as functional currency.

The company periodically enters into forward exchange contracts to
hedge a portion of its foreign equity.  The gains and losses on these contracts
are included in "stockholders' equity."


RESTRUCTURING AND DIVESTITURES
On October 11, 1994, the company announced a major restructuring of its
telecommunications business segment.  As a result, the company recorded a
pretax charge of $24 million for restructuring and divestitures in the first
quarter of 1995.  The segment's restructuring charge included $13 million for
severance costs related to a net workforce reduction of 340 employees,
resulting from the closure of telecommunications' manufacturing operations in
Germany and the restructuring of its North American activities.  The remaining
charge of $11 million related to plant consolidations and the shutdown of
unprofitable product lines.


RAYNET
On November 16, 1994, the company and L M Ericsson (Ericsson), a Swedish
telecommunications company, formed a joint venture for the development,
manufacture, and marketing of fiber-optic communications systems for telephone
access networks worldwide.  The joint venture, called "Ericsson Raynet," has
taken over and is continuing the operations of the company's Raynet subsidiary,
and is headquartered in Menlo Park, California.  Ericsson Raynet has been
organized as a partnership under Delaware law; the company's Raynet subsidiary
holds the company's interest in the joint venture.  Ericsson representatives
constitute a majority of the Board of Managers of the joint venture.

In forming the joint venture, Raychem sold certain specified assets of its
Raynet subsidiary to Ericsson in exchange for $40 million.  Ericsson
contributed the purchased assets to the joint venture, and Raynet contributed
substantially all of its remaining assets and liabilities to the joint venture.
Funding of the joint venture will initially be provided by the partners,
generally 51% by Ericsson and 49% by Raynet.





                                       6
<PAGE>   9

During the first five to eight years of operation, subject to various
conditions, substantially all of the profits of the joint venture up to $156
million will be allocated to Raynet; thereafter, profits of the joint venture
will be shared 51/49 by Ericsson and Raynet, respectively.  Ericsson's share of
the joint venture's losses will be capped at $25 million for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1995.  During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1996, up to $19.6
million of losses will be allocated to Ericsson and Raynet in a 51/49 ratio;
additional losses, if any, of up to $10 million will be allocated 100% to
Raynet; and additional losses, if any, will again be allocated to Ericsson and
Raynet in a 51/49 ratio.

BellSouth Enterprises Inc. (BSE) had financed a portion of the software
development work at Raynet and held a royalty interest in the software related
revenues of Raynet.  With the creation of the joint venture, this royalty
payment was reconfigured.  Raychem paid BSE $10 million in 1994, and is
required to make two additional payments of $10 million each over the next two
calendar years.  Raychem has agreed to make other royalty payments to BSE
contingent upon the revenues and earnings performance of the joint venture.  At
such time as the joint venture achieves profitability, these royalty payments
could approximate 36% of Raychem's distributions from the joint venture.

Ericsson has a right to purchase Raynet's interest in the joint venture at a
fixed price for a limited period beginning November 16, 1996; and Ericsson and
Raynet have call and put rights, respectively, on Raynet's interest in the
joint venture exercisable at fair market value at any time after July 1, 1999.
If any of these options are exercised, Raychem has agreed to pay BSE a portion
of the purchase price received.

Reflected in the accompanying Statement of Operations for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, is a pre-tax charge of $28 million which is the company's
loss resulting from these transactions.  For purposes of recording its loss,
the company has discounted its obligations to BSE to their present value using
a 7.97% discount rate.

significant equity investment of the company, is summarized below:

DEBT STRUCTURE

On September 29, 1994, the company entered into syndicated loan agreements
providing for a five-year partially amortizing term loan of $225 million, and a
renewable 364-day revolving credit facility of $200 million.  Interest on the
term loan and revolving credit facility are at variable rates.  The term loan
requires quarterly principal payments of $15 million beginning December 31,
1996, increasing to $17.5 million from December 31, 1997, and to $20 million
from December 31, 1998, with a final payment of $35 million due September 29,
1999.  Proceeds from the term loan were drawn on November 1, 1994, and used to
retire the 9.55% privately placed senior notes and for general corporate
purposes, while the revolving credit facility replaced existing committed
credit facilities.  The new agreement includes covenants which, among other
things, specify a minimum net worth requirement, a maximum leverage limit, a
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a dividend restriction, and limits on
further advances to fund Raynet operations.

REPURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK

In December 1994, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at
management's discretion, of up to 1.5 million shares of the company's stock
during any one fiscal year.  Shares repurchased under this authorization will
be used to offset the dilution caused by the company's employee stock plans.
The company has repurchased 100,000 shares, of which 56,700 shares settled and
were held as treasury stock at December 31, 1994.

CONTINGENCIES

The company has been named, among others, as a potentially responsible party
(PRP) in administrative proceedings alleging that it may be liable for the
costs of correcting environmental conditions at certain hazardous waste sites.
At all of the sites, the company is alleged to be a de minimis generator of
hazardous wastes, and the company believes that it has limited or no liability
for cleanup costs at these sites.  The company has also been notified by a
state environmental agency that it may be required to investigate the need for
remedial work at one of its





                                       8
<PAGE>   11

manufacturing sites.  The company currently is conducting such
investigations on a voluntary basis.

Additionally, the company and its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in
lawsuits arising from various commercial matters, including product liability
and private cost recovery for environmental cleanup expenses.  The principal
product liability litigation involves a variety of claims arising from the
company's heat-tracing and freeze-protection products.  The single
environmental cost recovery lawsuit in which Raychem has been named as a
defendant, along with sixteen other corporate and governmental codefendants,
involves the disposal of waste materials at the West Contra Costa County
Landfill in Richmond, California.

Legal proceedings tend to be unpredictable and costly.  Based on currently
available information, however, management believes that the resolution of
pending claims, regulatory inquiries, and legal proceedings will not have a
material adverse effect on the company's operating results or financial
position.


SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 2, 1995, the company entered into a revolving credit agreement with
its Ericsson Raynet joint venture.  The company committed to make available to
the joint venture a maximum of $50 million, due in full on December 20, 1995,
or earlier if the revolving credit arrangement is terminated at the company's
discretion.  The credit agreement stipulates that borrowings under the
agreement will be interest-free, and imposes no covenants or restrictions on
the joint venture's operations.  Ericsson has also entered into a similar
agreement with the joint venture.

On January 17, 1995, the company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.08 per share of Common Stock, payable on March 8, 1995, to
stockholders of record as of February 8, 1995.

                              RAYCHEM CORPORATION
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

The company reported second quarter 1995 net income of $21 million, or $0.47
per share, versus net income of $2 million, or $0.04 per share, in the second
quarter of 1994.  Revenues increased to $382 million in the second quarter of
1995 from $354 million in the comparable prior-year period, which included $9
million in revenues from Raynet.  This represents a 5% increase over the
year-ago quarter on a constant currency basis (which assumes that foreign
currency exchange rates had remained constant from the prior period).  For the
six months ended December 31, 1994, net loss was $36 million, or $0.83 per
share, compared to net income of $8 million, or $0.19 per share, for the same
period in the prior year.  Revenues for the six-month period ended December 31,
1994, increased 3% over the prior-year period on a constant currency basis to
$751 million.

Results for the three- and six-months ended December 31, 1994, include the
results of Raynet Corporation and subsidiaries through November 16, 1994, and
the results of Ericsson Raynet from November 17, 1994, through December 31,
1994, (the "Raynet" results) on the equity basis of accounting.

Excluding the effect of Raynet, Raychem's "ongoing" pretax income increased to
$44 million in the three months ended December 31, 1994, from $35 million in
the year-ago quarter which was adversely affected by currency movements in
Europe.  Raynet's pretax loss for the quarter was $13 million, which was 
primarily attributable to losses incurred through November 16, 1994, compared
with a $30 million loss in the previous year's second quarter when Raynet was a
wholly owned Raychem subsidiary.  Pretax income for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, included a $24 million provision for restructuring of the
telecommunications business segment and a Raynet pretax loss of $70 million,
which included a $28 million loss on formation of the Ericsson Raynet joint
venture, equity in loss of $38 million and $3 million of other Raynet items.
Raychem's results are summarized as follows:

The results for the six months ended December 31, 1994, include an
extraordinary loss of $6.3 million (recorded as $7.1 million in the first
quarter and adjusted by $0.8 million in the second quarter), or $0.15 per
share, for the early retirement of debt following payment by the company of its
9.55% privately placed senior notes.  In addition, the company adopted in the
first quarter, effective July 1, 1994, Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" (FAS
112).  The cumulative effect of this accounting change (a charge of $1.5
million, or $0.03 per share) has been reflected in the 1995 first half results.

The following discussion of the results of operations is presented based on the
company's business segments--electronics, industrial, and telecommunications--
(which along with the corporate groups are referred to collectively as the 
"core business") and on Raynet.  The condensed consolidating financial 
statements included on pages 16 through 18 supplement the discussion.

CORE BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Core business revenues for the second quarter of 1995 increased to $382 million
from $345 million in the prior-year period.  Revenue growth was 7% on a
constant currency basis.  Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 1994,
were $751 million compared to $700 million in the comparable prior-year period,
a constant currency increase of 4%.

Revenues in the electronics business segment were $145 million in the second
quarter of 1995 compared to $127 million in the prior-year period, a 10%
constant currency increase over the prior-year quarter.  The PolySwitch and
Thermofit divisions contributed significantly to the revenue growth.  The
PolySwitch division decreased its prices substantially compared to the prior
year while sales increased in all geographic regions.  The Thermofit division
experienced particularly strong growth in Europe and in the worldwide
automotive market.  In addition, Elo TouchSystems experienced strong U.S.
growth.  Incoming orders during the quarter were slightly less than shipments
for the segment.  Operating income grew to $25 million from $21 million a year
ago reflecting increased sales volume.  Revenues for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, were $285 million compared to $254 million in the comparable
prior-year period.  Operating income for the six months ended December 31, 1994
and 1993, was $47 million, unchanged due to increased operating expenses in
growth divisions.

Revenues in the industrial business segment for the three months ended December
31, 1994, were $131 million, up from $109 million, a 16% constant currency
increase over the prior-year period.  The strong growth was due to the
Electrical Products (EPD) and Chemelex divisions.  Chemelex sales were
especially strong in North America, while EPD experienced strong growth in
North America and Europe.  Incoming orders in the second quarter were
approximately equal to shipments for the industrial business segment.
Operating income increased to $28 million from $16 million a year ago
reflecting higher sales volumes and an increase in gross profit percentage over
the prior year which was adversely affected by exchange rate movements.
Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 1994, were $252 million versus
$221 million in the comparable prior-year period.  Operating income was $52
million, $14 million higher than the comparable prior-year period reflecting
the strong revenues in EPD and Chemelex divisions and improved gross profit
percentage, partially offset by weakness in the Ultratec division due to a lack
of pipeline construction projects worldwide and continued softness in its
European base business.





                                      11
<PAGE>   14

Revenues in the telecommunications business segment decreased to $107 million
from $109 million in the second quarter of the prior year, a 5% decrease in
constant currency terms from the prior-year quarter.  Sales were down in Asia,
but flat in Europe, despite a sales decline in Germany.  The segment's North
American sales improved versus the year-ago quarter, and sales were little
changed in Latin America.  Orders received in the second quarter of 1995 were
$9 million less than sales in the quarter.  Operating income was $16 million
versus $23 million in the year-ago quarter due to adverse product and
geographic mix and higher operating expenses. Revenues for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, were $213 million compared to $225 million in the comparable
prior-year period.  Excluding the previously described restructuring charge,
operating income declined $16 million to $34 million for the six months ended
December 31, 1994, due to lower sales and higher operating expenses.  Fiscal
1995 revenues for the telecommunications business segment will likely be lower
than the prior year resulting from a general market shift away from the copper
telephony network and an expected decline in Asia and Latin America sales.
While the company is introducing new products into other market segments of the
outside plant network, sales of these new products, which carry lower margins,
are not yet sufficient to offset the decline in sales of copper closures.  This
adverse geographic and product mix is expected to offset restructuring savings
so that telecommunications' fiscal 1995 profitability will likely be lower than
the prior year.

Provision for Restructuring and Divestitures

On October 11, 1994, the company announced a major restructuring of its
telecommunications business segment.  As a result, the core business incurred
a pretax charge of $24 million for restructuring and divestitures in the first
quarter of 1995.  The segment's restructuring charge included $13 million for
severance costs related to a net workforce reduction of 340 employees,
resulting from the closure of telecommunications' manufacturing operations in
Germany and the restructuring of its North American activities.  The remaining
charge of $11 million related to plant consolidations and the shutdown of
unprofitable product lines.  The restructuring is expected to be substantially
complete by June 30, 1995, and will result in approximately $24 million of
annualized savings, of which $9 million of savings is expected in fiscal 1995.
Substantially all of the savings are cash related.

The following table sets forth the company's restructuring charge for the six
month period ended December 31, 1994.  All charges, excluding asset writedowns,
are cash in nature and are expected to be incurred in fiscal year 1995 and
funded through operating cash flow.

The company has implemented a number of programs over the past three years to
restructure the core business.  Reserves which were established in prior fiscal
years have largely been used, and the remaining balances, if any, are
immaterial.  The following table sets forth the company's 1995
telecommunications restructuring reserve as of December 31, 1994:

As of December 31, 1994, 205 employees have separated from the company
following the telecommunications announcement in the first quarter, although
severance will not be paid until the end of the notice period.

Extraordinary Item - Loss From Early Retirement of Debt

On September 30, 1994, the company gave irrevocable notice to the holders of
its 9.55% privately placed senior notes of its intention to prepay this debt on
November 1, 1994.  Accordingly, the company recorded in the first quarter of
1995 an extraordinary loss of $7.1 million for the early retirement of debt.
The extraordinary loss is comprised of an estimated $8.1 million prepayment
penalty and deferred debt issuance costs of $0.5 million, net of a $1.5 million
deferred gain resulting from the termination of a related interest rate swap
agreement.  The prepayment penalty was estimated based on interest rates at the
time of notice.  When paid, the prepayment penalty was $0.8 million less, which
adjustment was recorded in the second quarter of 1995.

Change in Accounting Principle

The company adopted FAS 112 effective July 1, 1994.  This statement changes the
method of accounting for certain postemployment benefits from a cash basis to
an accrual basis.  Adoption of FAS 112 resulted in a one-time adjustment of
$1.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 1994, to reflect the
cumulative amount that would have been accrued had the statement been in effect
in prior years.

New Accounting Standard

In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
119, "Disclosure About Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments,"  which the company adopted in the second quarter.  For
the disclosures, see "New Accounting Standard" in the notes to the consolidated
condensed financial statements.

RAYNET OPERATIONS

The pretax loss attributable to Raynet was $13 million for the second quarter
of 1995, principally due to losses incurred through November 16, 1994.  The
joint venture agreement provides that Ericsson's share of the joint venture's
losses will be capped at





                                      13
<PAGE>   16

$25 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995. Accordingly, $12 million
of equity losses in the second quarter were absorbed by Ericsson.  Raynet was   
consolidated in the previous year's second quarter when it was a wholly owned
Raychem subsidiary and reported revenues of $9 million and a pretax loss of $30
million.  Raynet's second quarter 1994 results also included a $2 million
severance provision reflecting a restructuring and work force reduction of
approximately 80 people throughout the organization. Pretax loss of $70 million
for the six months ended December 31, 1994, includes a $28 million loss on
formation of the Ericsson Raynet joint venture, equity in loss of $38 million,
and $3 million of other Raynet items.  Revenues in the comparable prior-year
period were $9 million and pretax loss was $59 million. For selected financial
data on Ericsson Raynet, see "Investments" in the notes to the consolidated
condensed financial statements.

Loss on Formation of Ericsson Raynet Joint Venture

In the first quarter of 1995, the company recorded a pre-tax charge of $28
million which was the company's estimate of the loss which would result from
transactions relating to the formation of the Ericsson Raynet joint venture.
This amount was previously presented as a core business item, but has been
reclassified to conform to the current presentation.  For details on the loss,
see "Raynet" in the notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements.

OUTLOOK

As described earlier, fiscal 1995 revenues for the telecommunications
business segment will likely be lower than the prior year resulting from a
general market shift away from the copper telephony network and an expected
decline in Asia and Latin America sales.  While the company is introducing new
products into other market segments of the outside plant network, sales of
these new products, which carry lower margins, are not yet sufficient to offset
the decline in sales of copper closures.  This adverse geographic and product
mix is expected to offset restructuring savings so that telecommunications'
fiscal 1995 profitability will likely be lower than the prior year.  In
addition, Ultratec revenues and profitability are expected to be lower in 1995
as compared to the prior year. Overall, the company believes that there will be
moderate sales growth in the core business, in constant currency terms, for the
remainder of fiscal 1995.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CONSOLIDATED

Debt exceeded cash by $171 million at December 31, 1994, compared to $197
million at June 30, 1994.  Debt net of cash decreased $26 million in the first
six months of 1995, compared to an increase in debt net of cash of $45 million
in the first six months of 1994.  The decrease in debt net of cash results from
cash proceeds from the Ericsson Raynet joint venture transaction and improved
cash flow from operations. In addition, in accordance with the joint venture
agreement, the parties completed their initial funding of the joint venture
which resulted in Raychem receiving $17 million of amounts previously advanced 
to fund Raynet's operations.

On September 29, 1994, the company entered into syndicated loan agreements
providing for a five-year partially amortizing term loan of $225 million, and a
renewable 364-day revolving credit facility of $200 million.  Interest on the
term loan and revolving credit facility are at variable rates.  The term loan
requires quarterly principal payments of $15 million beginning December 31,
1996, increasing to $17.5 million from December 31, 1997, and to $20 million
from December 31, 1998, with a final payment of $35 million due September 29,
1999.  Proceeds from the term loan were drawn on November 1, 1994, and used to
retire the 9.55% privately placed senior notes and for general corporate

purposes, while the revolving credit facility replaced existing committed
credit facilities.  The new agreement includes covenants which, among other
things, specify a minimum net worth requirement, a maximum leverage limit, a
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a dividend restriction, and limits on
further advances to fund Raynet operations.

At December 31, 1994, the company had $115 million in cash and cash
equivalents, $240 million in committed credit facilities (of which $3 million
was utilized) and approximately $174 million in various uncommitted credit
facilities (of which $37 million was utilized).

On January 2, 1995, the company entered into a revolving credit agreement with
its Ericsson Raynet joint venture.  The company committed to make available to
the joint venture a maximum of $50 million, due in full on December 20, 1995,
or earlier if the revolving credit arrangement is terminated at the company's
discretion.  The credit agreement stipulates that borrowings under the
arrangement will be interest-free, and imposes no covenants or restrictions on
the joint venture's operations.  Ericsson has also entered into a similar
agreement with the joint venture.

The combination of cash and cash equivalents, available lines of credit, and
future cash flows from operations are expected to be sufficient to satisfy
substantially all of the company's needs for working capital, normal capital
expenditures, Ericsson Raynet funding requirements, scheduled debt repayments,
and anticipated dividends.

CORE BUSINESS

Inventory, as measured by the number of days of inventory on hand, improved to
109 days for the second quarter compared to 114 days for the year-ago period.
Receivables, as measured by the number of billing days outstanding, increased
to 64 days at December 31, 1994, compared to 61 days at December 31, 1993.

Capital expenditures of $49 million in the first half of 1995 increased
slightly from $46 million in the prior-year period.  In the first quarter of
1994, the company received $4 million from the sale of a building in the United
States.
