Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
================================================================================

December 24, 1995
(Unaudited)

Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned  subsidiaries after elimination
of significant intercompany accounts and transactions.  The financial statements
have been  prepared  in  accordance  with  instructions  to Form 10-Q and do not
include  all the  information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. The statements (and all
other  information  in this  report)  have  not  been  examined  by  independent
auditors,  but in the opinion of the Company all  adjustments,  which consist of
normal recurring  accruals  necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
the period,  have been made.  The  results of  operations  for the period  ended
December 24, 1995, are not  necessarily  indicative of the results of operations
for the year  ending  June  30,  1996.  For  further  information,  refer to the
financial  statements and footnotes  included in the Company's  annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1995.

Primary  earnings per share are based on the weighted  average  number of common
stock and dilutive  common  stock  equivalents  outstanding  during each period.
Common stock  equivalents  consist of stock options whose exercise price is less
than the  stipulated  market  price  using the  Treasury-stock  method  for both
primary and fully diluted  earnings per share.  Fiscal year 1995's fully diluted
computations,  when applicable, assumed the dilutive conversion of the Company's
outstanding  convertible  debenture  issue,  after  adding back their  after-tax
interest  expense.  Shares  issued  upon  conversion  of the 5 5/8%  Convertible
Subordinated  Debentures on September 1, 1995,  have been treated as outstanding
from July 1, 1995, for purposes of the  computation;  fiscal year 1996's related
after-tax interest expense for the converted  debentures have been added back to
net income for computational purposes.

Note B - Income Taxes

The  Company  provides  U.S.  income  taxes  on  that  portion  of  its  foreign
subsidiaries'  earnings  that it does not consider  permanently  invested.  U.S.
income  taxes are not  provided  on certain  undistributed  earnings  of foreign
subsidiaries  aggregating   approximately  $53,000,000  at  December  24,  1995.
Otherwise,  approximately  $14,500,000 of cumulative deferred income taxes would
have been  provided.  Income tax provision for fiscal year 1996 differs from the
U.S. statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes.

Note C - Changes in Amount Outstanding of Securities or Indebtedness

Outstanding  borrowings  at December 24,  1995,  under the  Company's  Revolving
Credit and  Commercial  Paper,  and other  long-term debt  agreements  increased
approximately $88,000,000 from the June 30, 1995, balance. At December 24, 1995,
the  Company  had  $150,000,000   outstanding  under  its  Asset  Securitization
Agreement,  a $100,000,000 increase from the June 30, 1995, amount. Total unused
credit  facilities  available to the Company at December 24, 1995,  approximated
$224,000,000.

The  $38,825,000 of outstanding 5 5/8%  Convertible  Subordinated  Debentures at
June 30,  1995,  were  substantially  converted  into  1,847,120  shares  of the
Company's common stock on September 1, 1995.

Note D - Termination  of A-12 Aircraft Program Subcontracts

The Company was a subcontractor  for  development of certain  subsystems for the
U.S. NAVY A-12 Aircraft. The Government,  in January 1991, announced termination
(for default) of the A-12 prime  contracts.  Terminations  for convenience  were
received for eleven of the Company's  A-12  subcontracts,  of which the majority
were  with  McDonnell  Aircraft  Company  (McDonnell).   Settlements  have  been
concluded for all subcontracts  terminated for  convenience,  at the approximate
amounts  previously accrued by the Company.  In October 1991,  McDonnell filed a
sealed suit in Federal Court in St. Louis,  Missouri  claiming  default on seven
other  subcontracts,  which  have a  remaining  Company  inventory  exposure  of
approximately $22,000,000. Based upon the advice of special counsel, the Company
believes it has meritorious defenses, although no assurance can be given to that
effect, and is pursuing counterclaims against McDonnell through the courts.

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

Results of Operations

Sales for the second  quarter of fiscal  year 1996 were  $1.204  billion,  a 94%
increase over $621.5 million in fiscal year 1995's second quarter. Sales for the
first six months  increased  68% to $2.080  billion from $1.240  billion for the
same  period in fiscal  year  1995.  Substantially  all of the  increased  sales
resulted  from   increased   unit  volumes,   especially  in  finished   product
manufacturing  services.  Fiscal year 1996 second quarter's sales were favorably
impacted by seasonal  factors and by nonrecurring  pipeline  filling for certain
products. Geographically,  foreign sales increased 46% during fiscal year 1996's
first six months from that in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year,
with  domestic  sales  increasing  83% during  the same  period.  Foreign  sales
represented  36% of total  sales for the first  six  months of fiscal  year 1996
compared with 41% for total fiscal year 1995.

Operating  income,  net income and earnings per share for the second  quarter of
fiscal year 1996 each more than doubled from the  comparative  quarter in fiscal
year 1995.  These  increases can be mainly  attributed to  substantially  higher
sales volume.  Operating  margins for fiscal year 1996's second quarter improved
to 3.5% from 3.4% a year  earlier.  Operating  margins  for the first six months
improved  to 3.5% for  fiscal  year 1996 from 3.3% for  fiscal  year  1995.  The
improvement  resulted  from  recovering  operating  margins in  certain  foreign
operations as their sales volumes increased.

Interest  expense as a percentage  of sales  declined to .5% for both the second
quarter and first six months of fiscal year 1996,  compared with .8% and .7% for
the  corresponding  periods  of fiscal  year 1995 as a result of a higher  asset
turnover ratio.  Fiscal year 1996 second  quarter's asset turnover  increased to
3.6 times  (excluding the favorable impact of an asset  securitization  program)
compared with 2.8 times for fiscal year 1995's second quarter.  Average combined
quarter-end  borrowings and amounts securitized remained at the same approximate
level for both fiscal year 1996's and 1995's first six months ($291  million and
$290  million,  respectively),  although  sales  increased  68%.  Ending debt to
annualized  sales ratio for the first six months of fiscal year 1996 declined to
 .05 from .12 for first six months of fiscal year 1995.

Fiscal year 1996's  estimated  effective  income tax rate  differs from the U.S.
statutory rate primarily due to the effects of state income taxes. The estimated
effective  income tax rate  increased  to 40.5% in fiscal  year 1996 from 39% in
fiscal year 1995's first six months as a result of higher state income taxes and
higher foreign income taxes as certain tax holidays expired.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The Company had working  capital of $389 million at December 24, 1995,  compared
with $280 million at June 30, 1995.  December 24, 1995's ratio of current assets
to current  liabilities  (current  ratio) was 1.6, the same level as at June 30,
1995.

Available funds at December 24, 1995, were  approximately  $233 million.  Fiscal
year 1996's capital expenditures are currently estimated to be between 80 and 90
million dollars.

The dollar amount of order backlog at December 24, 1995, believed by the Company
to be firm was $2.427 billion, as compared with $1.230 billion a year earlier.

                               additional bases of non-recourse.

                           Permitted Asset Securitization Transactions:  
                               the  Receivables  Purchase  Transaction  and  the

                               the Foreign  Receivables  Transaction is combined
                               with  the  Receivables  Purchase  Transaction  as
                               contemplated  by  Section   10.15(a))  whereby  a
                               Person shall  purchase from time to time and on a

                               or any refinancings  thereof,  in each case to be
                               entered   into   by   Borrower   not  to   exceed

                               and which  prohibits  any  voluntary or mandatory
                               principal  payment or  prepayment  on the note or

                               Required Banks."

                  (c) The Credit  Agreement is further modified by deleting from
Section 1.01 the defined term "Loan/Purchase  Transaction" and replacing it with
the following definition:

                           "Foreign Receivables Transaction: a revolving foreign
                               trade receivable  securitization  facility not to
                               exceed   $50,000,000   whereby  a  Person   shall
                               purchase from time to time and on a  Non-Recourse
                               basis accounts receivable or undivided fractional
                               interests  in  one  or  more  pools  of  accounts
                               receivable of a Credit Party or Credit Parties or
                               a Bankruptcy Remote Subsidiary."

                  (d) The Credit  Agreement is further  modified by deleting the
date "August 3, 1998"  appearing in the first line of the  definition of "Credit
Expiration  Date" in Section 1.01 and  replacing  it with the date  "December 8,
2000".

                  (e) The Credit  Agreement  is  further  modified  by  deleting
Section  3.01(e) thereof in its entirety and by substituting in lieu thereof the
following new Section 3.01(e):

                           "(e)The  initial  Credit  Expiration  Date  shall  be
                               December  8, 2000.  The  Borrower  may,  however,
                               request  an  extension  of  the  initial   Credit
                               Expiration  Date by submitting a written  request
                               to the agent no earlier than  September 30, 1999,
                               and no later than  October  31,  1999.  Upon such
                               request,  the initial Credit  Expiration Date may
                               be extended by one  additional  year upon written
                               consent  of the  Required  Banks.  The Agent will
                               give  written  notice to the  Borrower,  not more
                               than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request
                               for extension  from the Borrower,  stating either
                               that (i) the  Required  Banks  have  given  their
                               written consent to a new Credit  Expiration Date,
                               which shall be specified in such notice,  or (ii)
                               the Required  Banks have not given their  consent
                               to the requested extension. Any Credit Expiration
                               Date subsequent to the initial Credit  Expiration
                               Date may be  extended by one  additional  year by
                               following the same  procedure as for extension of
                               the  initial  Credit  Expiration  Date,  with the
                               Borrower  requesting  such  extension  no earlier
                               than September 30 and no later than October 31 of
                               each year  subsequent to 1999. If an extension of
                               the Credit  Expiration  Date receives the consent
                               of the Required Banks, Banks which do not consent
                               to such  extension  may be  replaced on or before
                               the  Credit   Expiration  Date  which  is  to  be
                               extended (the "Prior Expiration Date"),  provided
                               that,  in  any  event,  the  Commitment  of  each
                               non-assigning  and   non-consenting   Bank  shall
                               terminate  on  the  Prior  Expiration  Date.  Any
                               financial  institution  proposed  to replace  any
                               Bank which does not  consent to an  extension  of
                               the Credit  Expiration  Date shall be an Eligible
                               Assignee within the meaning  specified in Section
                               15.04(b)(v),  and the Bank being  replaced  shall
                               assign  its  rights  and   obligations   to  such
                               Eligible   Assignee   in   accordance   with  the
                               provisions of Section  15.04(a) through (e). Such
                               replacement shall be in all respects satisfactory
                               to the Required  Banks which  consented and shall
                               be  effected  at the sole cost and expense of the
                               Borrower. None of the Agent, the Co-Agent and the
                               Banks shall incur any cost or expense (except any
                               reasonable  cost or  expense  which the  Borrower
                               shall  promptly  reimburse)  to  effect  any such
                               replacement.  Notwithstanding  anything herein to
                               the  contrary,   no  Bank  which  has  denied  or
                               withheld  its  consent  to any  extension  of the
                               Credit Expiration Date shall be bound by any such
                               extension by the  Required  Banks and such Bank's
                               Loans  shall  become due and payable on the Prior
                               Expiration  Date unless  such  Bank's  Loans have
                               accelerated   prior  to  such  date  pursuant  to
                               Section 11.01 hereof."

                  (f) The Credit  Agreement  is  further  modified  by  deleting
Section 9.11 thereof in its  entirety  and by  substituting  in lieu thereof the

                               any loss,  damage or  destruction  which is fully
                               covered by proceeds of  insurance;  and maintain,
                               with financially  secure and reputable  insurance

                               foregoing signed by its Chairman or President."

                  (j)      The Credit Agreement is further modified by deleting

                               under such reinsurance agreements; and"

                  (k)  The  Credit  Agreement  is  hereby  further  modified  by
deleting  Section  10.15(a) in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the
following new Section 10.15(a):

                           "(a)Agree to any  amendment to or a  modification  of
                               the   terms   or    conditions   of   any   Asset

                               that would in any way cause such  transaction  to
                               not be on a Non-Recourse basis or cause the total
                               facility amount of such transaction to exceed (I)
                               if done as separate transactions, $50,000,000 (in
                               the case of the Foreign Receivables  Transaction)
                               or  $150,000,000  (in the case of the Receivables
                               Purchase  Transaction)  and (ii)  $200,000,000 in
                               the event the Foreign Receivables  Transaction is
                               combined    into   the    Receivables    Purchase
                               Transaction as a single securitization facility."

                  (l) The Credit  Agreement is hereby further modified by adding
to Section 10.15 thereof the following new Section 10.15(c):

                           "(c)Agree to any  amendment to or a  modification  of
                               any agreement, instrument or document executed in
                               connection with the Term Note Facility that would
                               in  any  way  (i)  permit  the  total  Term  Note
                               Facility  to exceed  $75,000,000;  (ii) cause the
                               Term Note Facility to be secured; (iii) cause the
                               maturity  date of the Term Note Facility to occur
                               earlier than December 8, 2000; or (iv) permit the
                               Borrower   or  any  Credit   Party  to  make  any
                               voluntary  or  mandatory   principal  payment  or
                               prepayment of the  Indebtedness  evidenced by the
                               Term Note Facility."

                  (m) The Credit  Agreement is hereby further modified by adding
to Section 11.01 thereof the following new clause (l)  immediately  after clause
(k) of such Section,  with the intent being that the occurrence or the happening
of an event  specified in Section  11.01(l)  shall also  constitute  an Event of
Default under the Credit Agreement:

                           ";  or (l) the  occurrence of any default or event of
                               default under the Term Note Facility after giving
                               effect  to  any  applicable  notice  and/or  cure
                               periods".

         4.  No Other Amendments.  Except for the amendments expressly set forth
and referred to in Section 3 above,  the Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged
and in full force and effect;  provided,  however, that the Banks, the Agent and
the Co-Agent hereby  authorize the Agent to enter into or obtain from the Credit
Parties such  modifications  to the Credit Documents as the Agent may deem to be
necessary or  appropriate  in order to reflect the  amendments set forth herein.
Nothing in this Modification is intended, or shall be construed, to constitute a
novation or an accord and satisfaction of any of the Borrower's  indebtedness or
any  indebtedness  of any  other  Credit  Party to the  Banks,  the Agent or the
Co-Agent under or in connection  with the Credit  Agreement  (collectively,  the
"Obligations")  or to modify,  affect or impair the  perfection or continuity of
the security  interests in,  security titles to or other liens on any collateral
for the Obligations.

         5.  Representations  and Warranties.  To induce the Agent, the Co-Agent
and the Banks to enter into this Modification, the Borrower does hereby warrant,
represent and covenant to such parties that: (a) each representation or warranty
of the  Borrower  set  forth in the  Credit  Agreement  is hereby  restated  and
reaffirmed  as  true  and  correct  on and  as of the  date  hereof  as if  such
representation or warranty were made on and as of the date hereof (except to the
extent that any such  representation  or warranty  expressly  relates to a prior
specific date or period and except as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 1 attached
hereto), and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of
this date under the Credit  Agreement as amended by this  Modification;  and (b)
Borrower has the power and is duly  authorized  to execute,  deliver and perform
its  obligations  under this  Modification  and this  Modification is the legal,
valid and binding  obligation of Borrower  enforceable  against it in accordance
with its terms.
         6.  Conditions  Precedent  to Effectiveness of  this Modification.  The
effectiveness  of  this  Modification and the  amendments  provided in Section 3
above are subject to the fulfillment of the following additional conditions
precedent:

                      (a) the Agent shall have received one or more counterparts
                          of this  Modification duly  executed and  delivered by
                          the Borrower,  the Agent, the Co-Agent and  the Banks;

                      (b) any and all Guarantors of the  Obligations  shall have
                      consented to the  execution,  delivery and  performance of
                      this Modification and all of the transactions contemplated
                      hereby  by  signing   one  or  more   counterparts   of  a
                      Confirmation  of  Guaranty  in the  form of  Attachment  1
                      attached hereto and returning the same to the Agent;

                      (c) the Agent shall have received one or more counterparts
                      of  an  Officer's   Certificate   in  form  and  substance
                      acceptable to the Agent  executed by the Borrower and each
                      Guarantor;

                      (d) the Agent shall have received an opinion of Borrower's
                      and Guarantors'  counsel in form and substance  reasonably
                      satisfactory  to the  Agent  and an  opinion  of  in-house
                      counsel to the  Borrower  and the  Guarantors  in form and
                      substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent;

                      (e) Each and  every  representation  and  warranty  of the
                      Borrower  set forth in  Section 5 above  shall be true and
                      correct  in all  material  respects  as of the date of and
                      after giving effect to this Modification; and

                      (f)  There  shall  not  exist as of the date of and  after
                      giving effect to this Modification any Default or Event of
                      Default  under the  Credit  Agreement  as  amended by this
                      Modification.

         Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the extension of the Credit Expiration
Date is also subject to the Agent's receipt of written confirmation from Moody's
Investor  Services,  Inc. and Standard & Poor's  Corporation of their ratings of
least "P-1" and "A-1 plus",  respectively,  after giving effect to the extension
of the Credit Expiration Date as contemplated by this Modification.

         7. Counterparts.  This  Modification  may be  executed  in  multiple
counterparts, each of which  shall be deemed to be an  original and all of which
when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

         8. Delivery of Material Asset Securitization Documents.  Borrower shall
deliver, or cause to be delivered,  to the Agent and the Co-Agent, a copy of the
material Asset Securitization  Documents executed in connection with a Permitted
Asset  Securitization  Transaction  promptly  after  the  consummation  of  such
Permitted  Asset  Securitization  Transaction.   Failure  to  comply  with  this
paragraph  8 shall  be  deemed  to be an  Event  of  Default  under  the  Credit
Agreement, if such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt by
the Borrower of written notice of such default from the Agent or the Co-Agent.

         9. GOVERNING LAW. THIS MODIFICATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE  WITH, THE  INTERNAL LAWS OF THE  STATE OF  NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO
CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE.
