                       Report of Independent Accountants


To the Board of Directors
Hewlett-Packard Company


We have audited the accompanying statement of tangible assets sold and
liabilities assumed of the Hewlett-Packard Company ("HP") Communications
Synchronization Business (the "Business") as of September 30, 1999, and the
related statements of net sales, cost of sales and direct operating expenses for
the years ended October 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. These statements are the
responsibility of HP and the Business' management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosure in these statements. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statements. We believe that
our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statements were prepared for inclusion in the Securities and
Exchange Commission Current Report on Form 8-K of Symmetricom, Inc. as described
in Note 2 and are not intended to be a complete presentation of the Business'
financial position and results of operation.

In our opinion the statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the tangible assets sold and liabilities assumed as described in Note
2 as of September 30, 1999, and the net sales, cost of sales and direct
operating expenses as described in Note 2 for the years ended October 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996, of the Business in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

1. Description of Business

   The Communications Synchronization Business (the "Business"), of the Hewlett-
   Packard Company ("HP"), is engaged in the design, manufacture and marketing
   of synchronization products for communication networks.

2. Basis of Presentation

   On August 30, 1999, HP sold to Symmetricom, Inc. ("Symmetricom" or the
   "Company") for cash certain tangible assets and Symmetricom assumed certain
   liabilities of the Business in accordance with the Master Asset Purchase
   Agreement between HP and Symmetricom dated August 30, 1999 (the "Purchase
   Agreement").

   The accompanying statements of tangible assets sold and liabilities assumed
   as of September 30, 1999 and of net sales, cost of sales and direct operating
   expenses for the nine months ended July 31, 1999 (unaudited) and 1998
   (unaudited) and the years ended October 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, have been
   prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
   Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the Current Report on
   Form 8-K of Symmetricom.

   The statement of tangible assets sold and liabilities assumed includes the
   amounts of certain tangible assets and liabilities of the Business at
   September 30, 1999.  Tangible assets sold include raw materials and finished
   goods inventories and property, plant and equipment as specifically
   identified in the Purchase Agreement.  The machinery and equipment include
   equipment for research and development, manufacturing and testing of
   communication synchronization products.  The assets purchased by Symmectricom
   include miscellaneous equipment with an original cost of $507 which was
   expensed upon purchase by HP and which is included in the statement of
   tangible assets sold and liabilities assumed.  Liabilities assumed include an
   estimate of the Business' warranty obligations and certain accrued benefits
   earned by former HP employees who transferred to Symmetricom in connection
   with the Purchase Agreement.

   The statements of net sales, cost of sales and direct operating expenses
   includes direct expenses of the Business for research and design,
   manufacturing, marketing, distribution, and administration as well as
   allocations of costs incurred by HP primarily for selling, administration and
   management services that are directly attributed to the operations of the
   Business.  Corporate overhead, interest expense and income tax incurred by HP
   have been excluded from the statements of net sales, cost of sales and direct
   operating expenses.  These statements do not purport to represent all the
   costs and expenses associated with a stand-alone separate company, or the
   costs which may be incurred by an unaffiliated company to achieve similar
   results.  Complete financial statements, including historical balance sheets,
   were not prepared as HP did not maintain the Business as a separate business
   unit and has not segregated indirect operating cost information or certain
   assets and liabilities in the Business' accounting records.

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

   The statements of net sales, cost of sales and direct operating expenses for
   the nine months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited; however, in the
   opinion of HP and the Business' management, these statements reflect all
   adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
   fair presentation of these statements.


3. Summary of Significant Policies

   Use of estimates
   The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the amounts reported in the Business' financial statements and
   accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   Revenue recognition
   Revenue from product sales is recognized at the time the product is shipped
   or upon installation and customer acceptance, if the acceptance criteria are
   substantive.  Provisions are established for estimated costs that may be
   incurred for product warranties and post sales support.

   The Business sells communication synchronization products to domestic and
   international customers.  The following table is a summary of sales by major
   geographic region (percentage of total sales):

   Inventories

   Inventories are valued at standard cost which approximates actual cost
   computed on a first-in, first-out basis, not in excess of market values.

   Property, plant and equipment

   Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.  Additions, improvements
   and major renewals are capitalized.  Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals
   are expensed as incurred.  Depreciation is provided using accelerated
   methods, principally over 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment.
   Depreciation expense amounted to $471 (unaudited), $635 (unaudited) $819,
   $655 and $299 during the nine months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998 and the
   years ended October 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

   Research and development

   Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

   Company Allocations

   Allocated costs directly related to the operations of the Business primarily

   considered reasonable by management as discussed below.

      International cash discounts

   International cash discounts of $102 (unaudited), $231 (unaudited), $280,

                 Symmetricom, Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Company
                    Communications Synchronization Business
                            Pro Form Financial Data

On September 30, 1999, subsequent to the first fiscal quarter, Symmetricom, Inc.
("Symmetricom" or the "Company") acquired Hewlett-Packard Company's
Communications Synchronization Business ("Product Line Business") for $19.4
million in cash.  The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting.  The estimated net purchase price of $19.8 million, which
includes cash paid of $19.0 million, transaction costs of $.4 million, assumed
liabilities of $.4 million was allocated to tangible assets acquired of $1.4
million, capitalized developed technology of $8.0 million, other intangible
assets of $6.9 million and in-process research and development of $3.5 million.
Additionally, an estimated $11.0 million will be paid to Hewlett-Packard Company
over the next 12 to 15 months as additional assets, primarily inventory, are
transferred to the Company.  The purchase price allocation is subject to further
adjustment over the next quarter.

The following condensed consolidated pro forma financial data is based upon the
historical financial statements of Symmetricom for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 (unaudited) and the year ended June 30, 1999 and the
historical financial statements of the Product Line Business for the three
months ended July 31, 1999 (unaudited) and the year ended July 31, 1999.  The
unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial data has been prepared to
present, on a pro forma basis, the combined results of the operations of the
Company and the Product Line Business.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30,
1999 combines the historical balance sheet of the Company and the Statement of
Tangible Assets Sold and Liabilities Assumed of the Product Line Business as if
the acquisition had occurred on September 30, 1999, after giving effect to
certain adjustments described in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
year ended June 30, 1999 and for the three months ended September 30, 1999
present the combined results of operations of the Company and the Statement of
Net Sales, Cost of Sales and Direct Operating Expenses of the Product Line
Business as if the acquisition had occurred on September 30, 1999, after giving
effect to certain adjustments described in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The following
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information is presented
for illustrative purposes only. The Gross Margin of the Product Line Business
was significantly impacted by expenses for inventory writeoff, warranty retrofit
programs, the redeployment of resources and ramp up costs of offshore
manufacturing facilities for the year and quarter ended July 31, 1999. We do not
believe that this is indicative of the consolidated financial position or
results of operations for future periods or the results that actually would have
been realized had the Company and the Product Line Business been a consolidated
company during the specified periods.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information, including
the notes thereto, is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and should be
read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and
the notes thereto, which were previously reported in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1999 and the Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999.

This report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking information within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is subject to the safe harbor
created by those Sections. These forward-looking statements include statements
concerning additional payments as assets are transferred to
<PAGE>

Symmetricom, purchase price allocation, and future operating results.
Symmetricom's actual results could differ materially from those projected or
suggested in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause future
actual results to differ materially from the results projected in or suggested
by such forward-looking statements include: transfer of the assets by
Hewlett-Packard Company; difficulties in integrating the Communications
Synchronization business, products and employees with those of Symmetricom;
reduced rates of growth of telecommunication services and high-bandwidth
applications; timing, cancellation or delay of customer orders; delays in new
product development, introduction and production startup; increased competition;
customer acceptance of new products, including new and existing Communications
Synchronization products; customer delays in qualification of key new products,
including new and existing Communications Synchronization products; and the risk
factors listed from time to time in Symmetricom's reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
