NOTES:


      A.     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
             accounts of the company and all subsidiaries after elimination of
             all material intercompany accounts and transactions.  Certain
             information and footnote disclosures normally included in
             financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
             accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
             pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
             Exchange Commission.  These condensed financial statements should
             be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements
             and related notes contained in the 1994 Form 10-K.  The financial
             information presented in the accompanying statements reflects all
             adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
             a fair presentation of the periods indicated.  All such
             adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

      B.     Earnings per share for the three and nine months ended March 31,
             1995, has been computed based on the weighted average number of
             shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Earnings
             per share for the three and nine months ended April 1, 1994 has
             been computed based on the weighted average number of shares
             outstanding and equivalent shares derived from dilutive stock
             options.  See Exhibit 11.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Scientific-Atlanta had stockholders' equity of $450.6 million and cash
on hand was $60.4 million at March 31, 1995.  Cash decreased $63.0 million
during the nine months ended March 31, 1995, as expenditures for inventories,
equipment and expansion of manufacturing capacity, including the construction
of a manufacturing facility in Juarez, Mexico, exceeded cash generated from
earnings.  The current ratio of 2.4:1 at March 31, 1995, compared to 2.5:1 at
July 1, 1994.  At March 31, 1995, total debt was $3.1 million or less than 1
percent of total capital invested.  Short-term debt consists of borrowings by
the company's international operations to support their working capital
requirements.

         The company is in the process of securing a long-term debt facility to
provide funds to supplement those generated internally to support the growth of
the company and the planned expansion of manufacturing capacity.  The company
does not believe it will use any of the long-term debt facility prior to the
end of the fiscal year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, were $313.5 million, up 54
percent from the prior year's sales of $204.0 million. Sales for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995, were $823.2 million, up 49 percent over the
comparable period of the prior year.  During the three and nine months ended
March 31, 1995, strong growth in sales of transmission and addressable
converter products and deliveries of satellite equipment to Orbit
Communications Company for its direct to home satellite services contributed to
the year-to-year increases in sales.  Sales of instrumentation products
continue to be adversely affected by spending reductions in the defense
industry.

         Gross margins of 26.5 percent and 27.7 percent for the three and nine
months ended March 31, 1995, respectively, declined 4.6 and 2.4 percentage
points from the comparable periods of the prior year.  Gains from cost
improvements in satellite networks and increased volumes in transmission and
addressable converter products were offset by unfavorable exchange rate changes
in Japanese yen, production startup costs, product mix and costs overruns on
defense contracts.  The company believes that gross margins may be negatively
impacted in future periods by planned expansion of manufacturing capacity and
the continued increase in sales of addressable converter products and Sega
adapters which have lower margins than some of the company's other products.
Continued strength of the yen would also adversely affect gross margins.

         Certain material purchases are denominated in Japanese yen and,
accordingly, the purchase price in U.S. dollars is subject to change based on
exchange rate fluctuations.  Currently, the company has forward exchange
contracts to purchase yen to hedge its purchase commitments for a period of
approximately five months.

         Research and development costs increased $5.7 million, or 33 percent,
and $18.7 million, or 43 percent, for the three and nine months ended March 31,
1995, respectively, over the comparable periods of the prior year due to
increased research and development activity, particularly development of
digital products.  The company anticipates that spending during the last
quarter of fiscal 1995 will continue to increase over the prior year at
approximately the same rate as the first three quarters of fiscal 1995.

         Selling and administrative expense during the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1995, increased 30 percent and 24 percent, respectively, over
the comparable periods of the prior year.  Increased expenses reflect costs
associated with ongoing investments to support expansion into international
markets, the introduction of new products and a build-up in the infrastructure
of the company to handle the growth the company is experiencing.

         Other income of $1.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1995,
included net gains from partnership activities, rental income, royalty income
and other miscellaneous items.  Other expense of $17.0 million for the nine
months ended April 1, 1994, included a one-time charge related to the
settlement of securities class action litigation of $17.5 million and rental
income, gains from the sale of certain





                                    6 of 10

assets, and other miscellaneous items of $0.5 million.  There were no 
significant items in other income and expense during the third quarter of 
fiscal 1995 or 1994.

         The company's effective income tax rate was 32 percent for the quarter,
unchanged from the prior year.

         Net earnings were $15.7 million and $42.8 million, respectively, for
the three and nine months ended March 31 1995.  Net earnings, before including
the effect of the one-time charge for the legal settlement in the second
quarter of fiscal 1994, were $11.9 million and $26.4 million, respectively, for
the comparable periods of the prior year.  Higher sales volume was the primary
factor in the period-to-period increases.

- -----------------------------
(1)  In the three and nine months ended March 31, 1995, the dilutive effect of
    equivalent shares derived from dilutive stock options was less than 3
    percent and, therefore, the equivalent shares have not been included in the
    computation of earnings per share.
