                                       AUGAT INC.
                  Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
                 -----------------------------------------------------

          1.  In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
              consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
              (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to
              present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 1995, the
              results of operations for the three months and six months ended
              June 30, 1995 and 1994 and the cash flows for the six month
              periods then ended.

          2.  The results of operations for the six month period ended June
              30, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results
              to be expected for the full year.

          3.  Earnings Per Share - Earnings per share are based on the
              weighted average number of shares outstanding during each
              period.  The exercise of all presently issued outstanding stock
              options and the issuance of shares under the "Employee Stock
              Purchase Plan" would have no material dilutive effect on
              earnings per share.

          4.  The acquisition of National Industries, Inc. in 1991 included a
              liability of approximately $5.4 million to cover the estimated
              costs of site remediation for certain National facilities.
              Management estimated the liability using third-party
              consultants.  Costs incurred as of June 30, 1995 (approximately
              $1.1 million) represent amounts expended for preliminary site
              evaluation, design, testing and remediation.  The Company has
              obtained the necessary permits and is in the process of
              remediating the site.  The Company is keeping the state
              informed of its progress.  The Company believes the recorded
              liability of approximately $4.3 million at June 30, 1995 to be
              adequate.

          5.  During the second quarter of 1995, the Registrant acquired two
              businesses, Photon Systems Corp. and Elastomeric Technologies
              Inc., for an aggregate amount of cash of approximately $8.4
              million.  The acquisitions have been accounted for by the
              purchase method of accounting.  Preliminary goodwill of
              approximately $7.7 million has been recorded and is being
              amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.  The
              operating results of these acquisitions are included in the
              Company's consolidated results of operations from the date of
              acquisition.  Pro-forma results of these acquisitions, assuming
              they had been made at the beginning of each period presented,
              would not be materially different from the results reported.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

          Net Sales: Net sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30,
          1995 by product group, compared to the quarter and six months ended
          June 30, 1994, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

          Net sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1995
          increased primarily due to the increased volume in the worldwide
          Communication's business, the improvement in the Interconnection
          Products Division and the Automotive strength in Europe.  Net sales
          of the domestic Automotive division decreased during the current
          periods due to reduced production demand for the Ford Aerostar.

          With the exception of the domestic Automotive division, business
          conditions in the second quarter and six months of 1995 continue to
          reflect improvement in all other domestic and European markets in
          which the Company serves.  In the Far East markets, there have been
          no significant improvements in the current quarter.  Incoming
          orders for the second quarter and six months of 1995 were $131
          million and $269 million, respectively compared to $143 million and
          $277 million for the same periods of the prior year.  Incoming  
          orders for the current quarter increased approximately 13 percent
          for the Interconnection Products Business while decreasing 5
          percent for the Communication Products Business and 20 percent in
          the Wiring Systems and Components Business as compared to the same
          period of the prior year.  Incoming orders for the six months of
          1995 increased approximately 16 percent for the Interconnection
          Products Business and 9 percent for the Communication Products
          Business while decreasing 17 percent in the Wiring Systems and
          Components Business as compared to the same period of the prior
          year.  The backlog at June 30, 1995 was $124 million compared with
          $120 million at June 30, 1994.

                                          -8- <PAGE>
 



          Gross Margin: Gross margin remained constant at 21-22 percent of
          ------------
          sales in the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1995
          compared to the second quarter and six months of 1994.  The
          significant increase in Communication Products Business sales in
          1995 generated higher gross margins.  However, gross margin was
          negatively impacted by selected selling price decreases in the
          other two businesses and increases in material costs, wage
          increases and overhead.  These increased expenses were partially
          offset by improved manufacturing methods and on-going cost cutting
          programs.

          Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: These expenses were
          --------------------------------------------
          13.7 percent of sales in the second quarter of 1995 compared to
          13.4 percent in the comparable quarter of the prior year.  For the
          six months ended June 30, 1995, these expenses were 13.5 percent of
          sales compared to 13.1 percent of sales in the comparable period of
          the prior year.  While the dollars spent in this area have
          increased, the Company intends to maintain these expenses in the 13
          percent to 15 percent range of sales.  These expenses may vary from
          period to period based on various factors, none of which,
          individually are significant.

          Other Income (Expense): Interest income, etc. increased in 1995
          ----------------------
          versus 1994 due to the increase in cash availability to invest in
          the current periods over the comparable periods and the increased
          rate of return on short-term investments over the comparable
          periods.  Interest expense decreased in the 1995 periods compared
          to the same periods in 1994 due to the decrease in total
          outstanding debt in 1995 when compared to 1994.

          Income Taxes: The effective income tax rate for the Company was 34
          ------------
          percent for the second quarter of 1995 and 1994 and was 35 percent
          for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and June 30, 1994.  The tax
          rate for the second quarter in both periods is lower than the U.S. 
          statutory rate primarily due to income earned in jurisdictions with
          lower effective tax rates.

          Net Income: Net income was $7.1 million and $12.9 million for the
          ----------
          three months and six months ended June 30, 1995 respectively,
          compared to net income of $6.9 million and $12.6 million in the
          same periods of the prior year.  The increase in net income for the
          second quarter and six months ended June 30, 1995 resulted
          principally from increased sales volume in our European automotive
          and North American communications business and ongoing productivity
          and cost control programs.

          Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Registrant continues to
          -------------------------------
          maintain sufficient liquidity and has adequate resources to fund
          its operations under current business conditions.  During the
          second quarter, the Company acquired two companies for
          approximately $8 million in cash: Elastomeric Technologies Inc. and
          Photon Systems Corp.  Elastomeric is a manufacturer of customized
          interconnection technology used in communications and portable
          electronics.  Photon Systems designs and manufactures systems that
          enable telecommunications and cable television companies to
          distribute signals over fiber optic networks.  The income generated
          from operations along with the cash on hand and established bank  
          credit facilities are sufficient to cover expected sales growth and
          planned capital expenditure programs.
