NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 26, 1995 AND AUGUST 27, 1994
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation:
The information set forth in these consolidated financial statements as of
August 26, 1995 and for the three month periods ended August 26, 1995 and
August 27, 1994 is unaudited and may be subject to normal year-end
adjustments. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of
BE Aerospace, Inc. (the "Company" or "BEA") for the periods indicated.
Results of operations for the interim period ended August 26, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the operations for the full fiscal year. For
further information, including information with regard to conditions in the
airline industry and their possible impact on the Company, please refer to
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
February 25, 1995, as amended.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements consolidate all of the
Company's subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been
eliminated. Certain amounts in the prior years' Consolidated Financial
Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current fiscal year's
presentation.
Certain information normally included in footnote disclosures to the annual
financial statements has been condensed or omitted in accordance with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Note 2. Contingencies
The U.S. Departments of Commerce and Justice are jointly conducting an
investigation into the Company's 1992 and 1993 sales of passenger seats for
installation on commercial aircraft owned by Iran Air. The Company applied
for and received an export license from the Department of Commerce for these
transactions, which aggregated approximately $3.1 million. The investigation
appears to center on whether the terms of the export license were strictly
adhered to. The Company is cooperating with government officials, and is
conducting a parallel internal investigation and is determined to resolve
this matter as expeditiously as possible.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis addresses the results of the Company's
operations for the three and six months ended August 26, 1995, as compared
to the Company's results of operations for the three and six months ended
August 27, 1994 respectively. The discussion and analysis then addresses
the liquidity and financial condition of the Company.
THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 26, 1995, AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 27, 1994.
Sales for the three months ended August 26, 1995 were $57,451 or $2,254 (4%)
greater than sales of $55,197 for the comparable period in the prior year.
The increase in sales year over year is due to slightly higher volume of
products shipped.
At August 26, 1995 the Company's backlog stood at $345 million, up from $331
million at February 25, 1995. The Company's revenues are not expected to
increase appreciably until either the level of spending by the airlines for
refurbishment of their existing fleets increases, the Company begins
substantial deliveries of its MDDS interactive entertainment systems in
connection with airline upgrade programs on their existing airline fleets or
new aircraft deliveries increase.
Gross profit was $18,573 or 32% of sales for the three months ended
August 26, 1995 and was $165 greater than the comparable period in the prior
year of $18,408, which represented 33% of sales. The increase in gross
profit is due to the slightly higher volume of units shipped, offset somewhat
by the 1% decline in gross margin to 32% as a result of the mix of products
sold during the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8,443 (15% of sales) for
the three months ended August 26, 1995. This was $541 higher than the
comparable period in the prior year of $7,902 (14% of sales) and is due to
marginally higher selling costs, including commissions.
Research and development expense was $4,433 or 8% of sales for the three
months ended August 26, 1995. For the comparable period in the prior year,
research and development expense was $2,711 or 5% of sales. The increase in
expense is the result of a substantial increase in the level of activity
during the quarter, principally associated with In-Flight Entertainment
products and also with Seating products.
Amortization expense for the quarter ended August 26, 1995 of $2,360 was
$277 lower than the amount recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 1994 as
a result of the lower level of intangible assets amortized in the current
period.
While revenues and backlog have increased as compared to the prior year
levels, operating earnings for the three month period ended August 26, 1995
have suffered largely due to higher research and development spending.
Net interest expense was $3,961 for the three months ended August 26, 1995,
or $332 higher than the net interest expense of $3,629 recorded for the
comparable period in the prior year, and is due to the increase in the
Company's long-term debt outstanding during the current period, along with
an increase in interest rates.

THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 26, 1995, AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 27, 1994 (Continued)
Loss before income taxes of $(624) for the quarter ended August 26, 1995 was
$2,153 less than the earnings of the prior year, primarily as a result of
higher research and development and interest expense incurred during the
current quarter.
Income tax expense benefit for the quarter ended August 26, 1995 was $228 as
compared to a tax provision of $565 (37%) in the same period last year.
Net loss was $(396) or $(.02) per share for the three months ended
August 26, 1995, as compared to $964 or $.06 per share for the comparable
period in the prior year.
SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 26, 1995, AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 27, 1994.
Sales for the six months ended August 26, 1995 were $113,045 or $281 higher
than sales of $112,764 for the comparable period in the prior year.
Gross profit was $36,974 or 33% of sales for the six months ended
August 26, 1995 and was $321 lower than the comparable period in the prior
year of $37,295, which represented 33% of sales. The decrease in gross
profit is the result of the mix of products sold during the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16,743 (15% of sales) for
the six months ended August 26, 1995. This was $767 higher than the
comparable period in the prior year of $15,976 (14% of sales), principally
due to higher seller costs, including commissions.
Research and development expenses were $7,980 or 7% of sales for the six
months ended August 26, 1995. For the comparable period in the prior year,
research and development expense was $5,553 or 5% of sales. The increase
in expense during the current year is the result of an increase in the level
of activity in on-going research and development programs, principally
associated with In-Flight Entertainment products and also with Seating
products.
Amortization expense for the six months ended August 26, 1995 of $4,693 was
$516 less than the amount recorded in the first half of fiscal 1995 as a
result of the lower level of intangible assets amortized in the current
period.
While revenues and backlog have increased as compared to the prior year
levels, operating earnings for the six month period ended August 26, 1995
have suffered largely due to higher research and development spending.
Net interest expense was $8,149 for the six months ended August 26, 1995,
or $827 higher than the net interest expense of $7,322 recorded for the
comparable period in the prior year, and is due to the increase in the
Company's long-term outstanding debt during the current period, along with
an increase in rates.
The loss before income taxes of ($591) for the six months ended August 26,
1995 was $1,788 less than the earnings of the prior year, primarily as a
result of higher interest and research and development expense incurred
during the current year.
Income tax benefit for the six months ended August 26, 1995 was ($216) or
37% of loss before income taxes, as compared to a tax rate of 37% in the
first half of fiscal 1995.

BE AEROSPACE, INC.
The net loss of $375 or $(.02) per share for the six months ended
August 26, 1995 as compared to earnings of $2,038 or $ .13 per share for
the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in earnings per share
reflects the impact of higher research and development and interest expense
during the period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary requirements for working capital are directly related
to its accounts receivable and inventory levels, as well as costs associated
with the design and development of its MDDS interactive video system, and
improvements to its property and equipment. The Company's working capital
was $91,983 as of August 26, 1995 compared to $76,563 as of February 25,
1995.
In October 1993, the Company obtained Credit Facilities aggregating $85,000.
The credit facilities are comprised of two revolving lines of credit,
initially aggregating $40,000 and $45,000. The $40,000 revolving line of
credit is collateralized by the stock of a wholly owned subsidiary and may
be borrowed and repaid in $1,000 increments and has decreasing availability
through November 1998. The $45,000 revolving line of credit may be borrowed
in $1,000 increments, is subject to borrowing base calculation set forth in
the credit facility agreement, is collateralized by substantially all the
Company's assets and is due and payable in full in November 1998. The
credit facilities bear interest at prime plus .50% or at the Company's
option, LIBOR plus 1.75%. As of August 26, 1995, the availability under
the $40,000 revolving line of credit had been reduced to $29,500, resulting
in a total credit facility aggregating $74,500, of which $52,000 was
outstanding.
The Company believes that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and
available bank borrowings will be sufficient to meet its working
capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
