                             ADVANCED PHOTONIX, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                December 27,1998
                                   (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 and nine month periods ended December
27,1998, 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  income  (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 or insignificant.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES
The  Company's  revenues for the third  quarter ("Q3 99") and nine month periods
ended  December  27,  1998  ("YTD  99"),  were $1.9  million  and $5.8  million,
respectively. Revenues for the Q3 99 and YTD 99 periods were down 5% and up 17%,
respectively,  when compared to $2.0 million and $5.0 million in the  comparable
periods of the prior year ("Q3 98" & "YTD 98").  Q3 99 revenues  were $95K lower
than the second quarter of fiscal year 1999 ("the previous quarter"),  while net
income improved by $8,000.

Net product  sales for Q3 99 and YTD 99 were down $7,000 (0%) and up  $1,138,000
(24%), respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior year.

The increase in YTD 99 net product  sales was  primarily due to higher volume in
military  aerospace products which increased by approximately 35% as compared to
the same period in the prior year.  This  increase was  partially due to a large
military  program under which  production  deliveries began in Q3 of fiscal 1998
and ended  during Q2 99. The Company has been able to book  additional  military
and  commercial  business to offset the revenues  lost due to the  completion of
this program,  but expects the volume of military  business to decrease slightly


                                       7
<PAGE>

over the next few quarters.  Shipments of commercial  products  increased by 12%
during YTD 99 when compared to the same period in the prior year. During YTD 99,
shipments of Large Area Avalanche  Photodiode  (LAAPD) products (included in net
product  sales) rose by 251%,  to $291,000,  when compared to the same period in
the prior year. While sales from these products represented only 5% of total net
product  sales  during YTD 99, the Company  anticipates  increasing  volume from
sales of its  proprietary  LAAPD  products as markets  begin to  implement  this
"enabling" technology.

Development  contract revenues during Q3 99 and YTD 99 decreased by $100,000 and
$311,000,  respectively. 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). Both contracts were completed during fiscal 1998, the DOE in Q3 and
ARPA/NAWC in Q4. The Company is currently not working on any  government  funded
development contracts.

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of product sales  increased by $120,000  (12%) during Q3 99 and by $720,000
(26%)  during YTD 99 compared to Q3 98 and YTD 98. In Q3 99, the increase is due
to changes in product mix while the YTD 99 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 ~1 percentage point
in YTD 99 when compared to the same periods in the prior year.

Research and  development  ("R&D") costs decreased by $303,000 (67%) to $146,000
in Q3 99  compared  to Q3 98 and  decreased  by  $608,000  (63%)  during  YTD 99
compared  to YTD 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 has  commercialized its
discrete  line of LAAPD  products  which in the  previous  year were still under
development.  The Company  continues  development of its next generation line of
LAAPD array products.  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 $17,000  (8%) to $237,000 in Q3 99
compared to Q3 98 and increased by $90,000 (13%) to $771,000 for YTD 99 compared
to YTD 98. The Company  expects its marketing and sales  expenses to continue to
increase as the Company pursues its plan to grow its core business  revenues and
develop markets for its newly available family of LAAPD products.

General and administrative  expenses increased by $11,000 (5%) to $253,000 in Q3
99 compared to Q3 98 and by $126,000 (18%) to $824,000 in YTD 99 compared to YTD
98.  During Q2 97 the  Company  recorded  a  one-time  reorganization  charge of
approximately  $288,000 related to management  changes and during Q2 98 reversed
approximately  $100,000 of this accrual.  General and  administrative  expenses,
before the impact of the one-time reversal of  reorganization  charges in Q2 98,
increased  by $26,000 (3%) in YTD 99 compared to YTD 98.  These  increases  were
primarily the result of higher compensation costs.

                                       8
<PAGE>

Other income  decreased by $5,000 (15%) in Q3 99 compared to Q3 98 and decreased
by $6,000 (6%) in YTD 99 compared to YTD 98.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 27, 1998,  the Company had cash,  cash  equivalents  and  short-term
investments of $2.6 million and working  capital of $4.3 million.  The Company's
cash, cash equivalents and short-term  investments  increased by $193,000 during
the nine months ended  December 27, 1998.  Cash of $312,000 was  generated  from
operating activities. Cash of $119,000 was used for capital equipment,  compared
to $75,000 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 which is renewed  annually will expire on July 16,
1999, 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
December 27, 1998, no amounts were outstanding under any bank line of credit and
there were no stockholder loans to the Company.

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
