                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  June 28, 1998
                                   (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 28, 1998, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending March 28, 1999. 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 29, 1998.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Net Income (Loss) Per Share: Net loss per share is based on the weighted average
number  of  common  and  common  equivalent  shares  outstanding.  Common  stock
equivalents  were not  considered in the  calculation,  as their effect would be
antidilutive. Such weighted average shares were approximately 10,914,000 at June
28,  1998  and  10,854,000  at June  29,  1997.  Net  income  (loss)  per  share
calculations are in accordance with Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards
("SFAS")  No. 128,  "Earnings  per Share" (SFAS 128).  Accordingly,  "basic" net
income  (loss)  per share is  computed  by  dividing  net  income  (loss) by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. "Diluted" net income
(loss) per share has not been  presented as the impact is either not material or
anti-dilutive.

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 1999 ("Q1 99") were
$1,958,000,  an increase of $475,000 or 32% from revenues of $1,483,000  for the
first  quarter of fiscal year 1998 ("Q1 98") and a decrease of $92,000 (4%) from
revenues of $2,050,000 in the fourth  quarter of fiscal year 1998 ("the previous
quarter"). The Company believes that cutbacks in its sales and marketing efforts
during fiscal 1996 impacted its ability to book new orders and resulted in lower
sales  during the second half of fiscal 1997 and Q1 98.  These  cutbacks  were a
result  of  cash  conservation  measures  put in  place  prior  to  the  Company
completing a private  placement in August 1995.  After  receiving the additional
equity  financing,  the  Company  hired  and  replaced  employees  in the  sales
department  and  otherwise  increased  marketing  efforts  including  additional
trade-show attendance and advertising.

The increase in net product sales was primarily due to higher volume in military
aerospace  products which increased by approximately 79% in Q1 99 compared to Q1
98, and are expected to remain at or slightly lower than Q1 99 levels through Q2
99 as the Company continues deliveries under a military program. The Company was
awarded  contracts  totaling  $1.9  million  for  this  program.   Shipments  of
commercial  products in Q1 99 were level to those in Q1 98. During Q1 99 and the
previous quarter,  shipments of Large Area Avalanche Photodiode (LAAPD) products
(included  in net  product  sales)  were the  highest in Company  history as the
Company  begins higher volume  deliveries  to early  adopters.  While sales from
these products  represented  only 5% and 3% of total net product sales during Q1
99 and the previous quarter,  respectively,  the Company anticipates  increasing
volume  from  sales  of LAAPD  products  as  markets  begin  to  implement  this
"enabling" technology and as the Company continues its efforts to further refine
and  optimize  LAAPD  manufacturing  process  steps  and ramp up its  sales  and
marketing efforts to promote this new technology.

Development  contract revenues during Q1 99 decreased by $100,000 as the Company
is currently not working on any government  funded  development  contracts.  The
Company was awarded a Phase II Department of Energy (DOE) grant of approximately
$750,000 in June 1995, and in December 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 (ARPA/NAWC).  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. During the third quarter of 1998, revenues from the
DOE contract  began to wind down and the contract was  completed.  The ARPA/NAWC
contract was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of product  sales  increased  by  $306,000  in Q1 99 compared to Q1 98. The
increase is primarily  attributable  to the  incremental  cost  associated  with
increased product  shipments.  Cost of product sales as a percent of net product
sales  decreased  by 5% in Q1 99  compared  to Q1 98 due to a number of  factors
including  improvements in operating efficiencies as well as improved margins on
product mix.

                                       8
<PAGE>

Research and  development  costs decreased by $139,000 (61%) to $90,000 in Q1 99
as compared to Q1 98. The  decrease in R&D costs is  primarily  due to the lower
level of R&D effort on government  contracts (see "Revenues" above) as well as a
general  reduction  in internal  R&D efforts as the Company  focuses more on the
commercialization/manufacture   of  the   LAAPD.   In   conjunction   with   its
commercialization  efforts, the Company consolidated its core business and LAAPD
manufacturing  operations  during  FY 1997 and FY 1998.  These  operations  were
previously managed as separate operational centers. In addition, the Company has
better controlled internal R&D activities.  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 in Q1 99 were flat compared to Q1 98. The Company
believes its marketing and sales expenses will increase  during the remainder of
the year as the Company pursues its plan for growth including  commercialization
of the LAAPD family of products.

General and administrative  expenses decreased by $24,000 (8%) to $270,000 in Q1
99 compared to Q1 98  primarily  due to general  cutbacks  and efforts to reduce
costs.

Interest  income in Q1 99 of $28,000 was $5,000  lower than Q1 98 as a result of
lower average cash balances.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 28,  1998,  the  Company  had  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  short-term
investments of $2.3 million,  working capital of $3.9 million and an accumulated
deficit of $17.5 million.  The Company's cash,  cash  equivalents and short-term
investments  decreased  by $35,000  during the three months ended June 28, 1998.
Cash of $3,000 was used for operating  activities.  Cash of $32,000 was used for
capital equipment, compared to $30,000 during the comparable period of the prior
year.

To enable the  Company to meet its  capital  commitment  needs,  the Company has
historically supplemented cash provided by operations with proceeds from private
and public sales of capital stock and borrowings.  These funds have been used to
grow the core business and finance the development and initial commercialization
of the  Company's  LAAPD  technology.  While the Company  believes  that initial
commercialization  has been  completed  and has  reduced  its  expenditures  for
research and development,  it continues  development of proof-of-concept,  LAAPD
pixelized  arrays  as well as  other  derivatives  of the base  technology.  The
continued  development  of LAAPD arrays  beyond the  proof-of-concept  phase may
require additional funds.

The Company has a revolving line of credit  agreement with a bank for the lesser
of $1,000,000 or 75 percent of eligible trade accounts receivable, as defined by
the  agreement.  The agreement has been approved for renewal  effective July 15,
1998,  will expire in one year and  provides  for interest to be paid monthly at
prime plus .5 percent.  The  Company  must  adhere to certain  requirements  and
provisions to be in compliance with the terms of the agreement. Borrowings under
the line of credit are secured by accounts receivable,  inventory, equipment and
general  intangibles.  At June 28, 1998, no amounts were  outstanding  under any
bank line of credit and there were no stockholder loans to the Company.

                                       9

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.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

The Company uses computer software programs  purchased from various  independent
vendors who may have written their  programs using a two digit date field rather
than a four digit field to define the applicable  year.  Such computer  programs
utilizing  a two digit  date field may  recognize  a date using "00" as the year
1900  rather  than the year 2000 (the  "Year 2000  Issue").  The Year 2000 Issue
could  potentially  result in a system  failure  or in  miscalculations  causing
disruptions of operations,  including among other things, a temporary  inability
to  process  transactions,  send  invoices  or  engage in other  similar  normal
business  activities.  The  Company has  identified  Year 2000 Issues in certain
software  applications  and is in the process of  upgrading  or  replacing  such
applications with software which recognizes dates beyond December 31, 1999, thus
addressing  a  substantial  portion  of the Year 2000  Issue that may impact the
Company.  The cost of this project, as it relates to the Year 2000 Issue, is not
expected to have a material  effect on the operations of the Company and will be
funded through operating cash flows.

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, unforeseen
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),  the  availability  of other
competing  technologies  and a decline in the general demand for  optoelectronic
products.
