                                   (Unaudited)



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
notes  required  by  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring  adjustments)  necessary for a fair  presentation  have been
included.  Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 1996, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending March 30, 1997. For further  information,  refer to the consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto included in the Advanced Photonix,  Inc.
(together with its subsidiary, the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Net Loss Per Share:  Net loss per share is based on the weighted  average number
of common and common equivalent shares outstanding,  computed in accordance with
Accounting  Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 15. Common stock equivalents were
not considered in the calculation as their effect would be antidilutive.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES
The Company's  revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 1997 ("Q1 97") were
$1.8 million, a decrease of $136,000 or 7% from revenues of $1.9 million for the
first  quarter of fiscal year 1996 ("Q1 96").  Net product sales of $1.6 million
decreased  $212,000  (11%) in Q1 97 primarily due to the Company's Core Business
product lines which  represent 99% of net product  sales.  Development  contract
revenues increased by $76,000 (133%) to $133,000.

Net product  sales of Core  Business  products  declined in Q1 97 primarily as a
result of a lower level of  shipments to the  Company's  largest  customer.  The
Company  anticipates  that total  sales to that  customer  for fiscal  1997 will
approximate those of the prior year.

Q1 1997 net product sales from Large Area Avalanche  Photodiode (LAAPD) products
were  relatively  low and flat to the prior year.  During fiscal year 1995,  the
Company suspended most shipments of its proprietary LAAPD products and curtailed
LAAPD  production  because of low reliability and yields it was obtaining in the
manufacturing  process.   Thereafter,  the  Company  focused  its  research  and
development  resources on the baseline LAAPD manufacturing  process. As a result
of these efforts,  the Company  developed a new  manufacturing  process which it
anticipates will  significantly  improve both reliability and process yields. In
July  1996,  the  Company  filed  for a  patent  seeking  protection  of the new
manufacturing  process. The Company believes this new LAAPD process positions it
to begin aggressive  marketing of LAAPD products for OEM applications.  Shipment
of  products  manufactured  with the new  process  began at the end of Q1 97 and
should increase during the remainder of fiscal 1997.

Development  contract  revenues  increased 133% during Q1 97, from $57,000 in Q1
96, to $133,000 in Q1 97. This is primarily due to two development contracts for
which work did not build up until the second and third  quarters of fiscal 1996.
The Company was awarded a Phase II Department  of Energy grant of  approximately
$750,000  in June  1995  based  upon the  success  of a Phase I  effort,  and in
September 1995, was awarded a $1.1 million  contract from the Advanced  Research
Projects  Agency of the  Pentagon  and the  Aircraft  Division  of the Naval Air
Warfare Center.  These types of government  development  contracts are typically
multi-year  awards and are subject to periodic  review and  cancellation  by the
government  due to a variety  of reasons  including  a lack of  funding.  If not
rescheduled  or canceled,  revenues  from  existing  contracts  should  continue
through the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of product  sales  decreased  by  $247,000 in Q1 97 compared to Q1 96. This
decrease  was  primarily  due  to  lower  product  shipments  as  well  as  cost
containment  programs,  productivity  improvements and product mix improvements.
Cost of  product  sales as a percent  of product  sales  decreased  by 6% due to
factors noted above.

Research and  development  ("R&D") costs increased by $123,000 (27%) to $576,000
in Q1 97 compared to Q1 96. The  increase in R&D costs is  primarily  due to the
higher level of R&D effort on government

                                        8

contracts and efforts expended on LAAPD process improvements for which the above
mentioned manufacturing process patent was applied for during the period. During
the past fiscal year, the Company has better controlled  internal R&D activities
and has been successful in obtaining  government  funded  development  contracts
complementary  to its  internal  R&D  efforts.  These costs might  otherwise  be
partially  incurred as internal R&D without any  additional  funding.  R&D costs
have varied  significantly  in the past,  and may  continue to do so, due to the
level of activity  associated with  development  contracts as well as the number
and   complexity  of  new  process  and  product   development   projects,   the
qualification of new process developments and customer evaluation and acceptance
of new products.

Marketing  and sales  expenses  increased by $62,000  (42%) to $210,000 in Q1 97
compared to Q1 96. The increase  was  entirely  due to expenses  incurred in the
Core  Business  where the Company has increased  manpower  compared to Q1 96 and
incurred  higher  marketing  costs.  This increase was expected,  as the Company
pursues its plan to grow the Core Business.  Marketing and sales expenses should
begin to increase in the LAAPD Business as the Company  begins to  commercialize
the LAAPD family of products.

General and administrative  expenses decreased by $13,000 (4%) to $325,000 in Q1
97 compared to Q1 96. This decrease is primarily due to a reduction in fees paid
to outside  members of the  Company's  Board of  Directors  partially  offset by
higher  incentive  compensation  costs.  In October 1995, the Company's Board of
Directors  unanimously  agreed to eliminate  all fees for its outside  directors
except for reasonable  travel expenses in conjunction  with regular or committee
meetings.

Interest income increased by $36,000 (400%) in Q1 97 compared to Q1 96 primarily
as a result of higher  average cash  balances  since the third quarter of fiscal
1996. In August 1995, the Company  completed a private placement which increased
its average cash balances from that point  forward.  (See  Liquidity and Capital
Resources.)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 1996,  the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  of $3.4  million,
working capital of $4.7 million and an accumulated deficit of $16.1 million. The
Company's  cash and cash  equivalents  decreased  by  $662,000  during the three
months ended June 30, 1996.  Cash of $599,000 was used for operating  activities
primarily  for accounts  receivable  ($362,000).  A  significant  portion of the
growth in accounts  receivable was related to start-up billing issues with a new
government customer and not collection problems. In addition,  past due accounts
were  unusually low at March 31, 1996.  Cash of $108,000 was used for purchasing
of capital  equipment,  compared to $15,000 during the comparable  period of the
prior year.  Capital  spending had  decreased  during fiscal 1996 as the Company
conserved its resources pending receipt of additional equity financing.

To  enable  the  Company  to meet its  capital  commitment  needs,  the  Company
historically  has  supplemented  cash provided by operations  with proceeds from
private  placement  equity  financing,  bank  lines of  credit  and  loans  from
stockholders.  At June 30,  1996,  no amounts  were  outstanding  under any bank
line-of-credit and there were no stockholder loans to the Company. On August 15,
1995, the Company completed a $3,000,000  private placement offering in which it
issued 2,400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.

The Company  believes that the proceeds of its private  placement  offering will
permit it to implement its strategic  business plan,  which focuses on achieving
profitable  operating  results while  maintaining  its commitment to develop the
LAAPD based  products.  The Company's plan focuses on growing the Core Business,
bringing  initial  LAAPD  products  to market  and  developing  proof-of-concept
demonstration  LAAPD  Arrays  which are  expected  to prove  helpful in securing
future financing and strategic partners.

The Company  will utilize its  available  funds to continue  development  of the
LAAPD business and for other working capital purposes including, but not limited
to, capital  equipment and working capital to expand the Core Business and bring
the initial LAAPD products to market; and capital equipment, salaries, wages and
other development costs to further develop the LAAPD  manufacturing  process and
develop  proof-of-concept  demonstration LAAPD Arrays. The continued development
of LAAPD Arrays beyond the proof-of-concept phase may require additional funds.

The Company believes that the moderate rate of inflation over the past few years
has not had a significant impact on the Company's sales or operating results.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information  contained herein includes  forward looking  statements that are
based on assumptions  that management  believes to be reasonable but are subject
to inherent  uncertainties  and risks  including,  but not limited to, unforseen
technological  obstacles  which  may  prevent  or slow  the  development  and/or
manufacture  of new  products,  limited  (or slower than  anticipated)  customer
acceptance  of new  products  which  have  been and are being  developed  by the
Company  (particularly  its LAAPD  product  line),  and a decline in the general
demand for optoelectronic products.
