                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Scientific-Atlanta, Inc.
Voluntary Employee Retirement and Investment
Plan and Trust:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the SCIENTIFIC-ATLANTA, INC. VOLUNTARY EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT AND
INVESTMENT PLAN AND TRUST as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related
statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits, with fund
information, for the year ended December 31, 1998. These financial statements
and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the
Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. Voluntary Employee Retirement and Investment Plan and
Trust as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the changes in its net assets
available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for
investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor
Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974. The fund information in the statement of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional
analysis rather than to present the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and fund information have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

1. PLAN DESCRIPTION

   Effective January 1, 1986, Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. (the "Company")
   established the Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. Voluntary Employee Retirement and
   Investment Plan and Trust (the "Plan"). The Plan is subject to the provisions
   of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

   A description of the Plan's provisions has been published in a summary plan
   description available to all participants and beneficiaries.

   The following ten investment funds have been established by the Plan for
   investing participants' contributions. All investment elections are
   participant-directed. Participants may change their investment elections
   daily with the exception of the Fidelity Scientific-Atlanta Common Stock
   Fund, in which participants may only change their investment elections once
   each calendar month. The Plan has specific guidelines and limitations as to
   the type of securities eligible for investment by each fund.

        Fidelity Retirement Money Market Fund. This is a fixed income fund
        invested in short-term securities with the objective of current income
        that is designed to provide investors with a return that reflects
        current short-term money market rates.

        Fidelity Intermediate Bond Fund. This is a fixed income fund invested in
        U.S. Treasury bonds or other government bonds and corporate bonds with a
        fixed interest rate.

        Fidelity Equity Income Fund. This is a fund containing a variety of
        corporate securities, with more investment risk than the Bond Fund and
        Money Market Fund, with the objective of both current income and capital
        appreciation.

        Fidelity Spartan U.S. Equity Index Fund. This is a fund that invests
        primarily in the common stocks of the 500 companies included in the S&P
        500 Index. The objective is for both current income and long-term
        capital appreciation.

        Fidelity Magellan Fund. This fund is invested in securities of large
        United States and foreign corporations as well as smaller, lesser known
        companies with the
<PAGE>

        objective of long-term capital appreciation. This fund offers more
        overall investment risks than the other funds currently offered under
        the Plan.

        Fidelity Puritan Fund. This fund invests in a broad list of high-
        yielding securities among a variety of companies and industries. The
        fund's objective is to obtain as much income as possible, consistent
        with the preservation of capital.

        Fidelity Low-Priced Stock Fund. This fund seeks long-term capital
        appreciation and invests mainly in equity securities that are considered
        by the fund's management to be low-priced at the time of purchase.

        Fidelity Scientific-Atlanta Common Stock Fund. This fund is invested
        primarily in Scientific-Atlanta common stock with the balance in short-
        term money market investments. The objective of this fund is to give
        employees the opportunity to become shareholders of the Company and to
        share in the Company's performance. Employees have the option to
        redirect the Company's matching contribution, which is made only to this
        fund, to the other investment options. Investments in this fund are
        assigned units of participation. The unit value of the fund is
        determined daily based on the fair market value of the underlying net
        assets. The total units assigned to participants at December 31, 1998
        and 1997 were 2,912,989 and 2,673,260, respectively. The unit value at
        December 31, 1998 and 1997 was $13.42 and $10.17, respectively.

        Founders Growth Fund. This fund invests in the common stock of well-
        established, high-quality growth companies, both domestic and abroad.
        The fund's objective is to increase its investment over the long term
        through capital growth.

        Templeton Foreign Fund I. This fund invests primarily in common stock of
        companies in developed and developing foreign countries. The fund's
        objective is capital appreciation and growth; however, foreign
        investments involve greater risks, causing share price and return to
        vary.

 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    The financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis in accordance
    with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of the
    financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
    principles requires the Plan's management to use estimates and assumptions
    that affect the accompanying financial statements and disclosures. Actual
    results could differ from these estimates.

    Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined for
    accounting purposes as of the trade date on a moving average cost basis. Net
    realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized appreciation
    (depreciation) are recorded in the accompanying statement of changes in net
    assets available for plan benefits as net appreciation (depreciation) in
    fair value of investments. Investments are stated at market value (based on
    quoted market prices) in the accompanying statements of net assets available
    for plan benefits.

 3. PLAN TERMINATION

    Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
    under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate
    the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.

 4. TAX STATUS

    The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
    letter dated September 29, 1995 that the Plan was designed in accordance
    with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"). The Plan has
    been amended since receiving this letter; however, the plan administrator
    believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in
    compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, the plan
    administrator believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was
    tax-exempt as of the financial statement dates.

 5. PARTICIPATION

    Employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan if they are
    at least 18 years of age with the exception of workers classified as casual
    or temporary employees (including co-op employees) and any person rendering
    services to the Company purportedly as an independent contractor. Outside
    contractors are not eligible to participate in the Plan even if later
    determined to be common law employees. Eligibility begins immediately upon
    employment provided the above age and employment status are met. This
    eligibility requirement complies with the provisions of ERISA.

    Participants may contribute to the Plan an amount ranging from 1/2% to 15%
    of their annual compensation. Individual accounts are maintained for each of
    the Plan's participants to reflect the participant's share of the Plan's
    income, the Company's contribution, and the participant's contribution.
    Allocations of income are based on participant account balances, as defined.

    The amount contributed to the Plan by the Company on behalf of a participant
    is equal to $1 for each dollar contributed by the participant up to 3% of
    the participant's annual compensation plus $.50 for each dollar of the
    participant's contribution between 3% and 6% of the participant's annual
    compensation. In addition, for any plan year, the Company's contribution on
    behalf of the participant to this Plan shall not exceed 4.5% of the
    participant's annual compensation for such plan year. The Company's matching
    contributions to the Plan are in the form of Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. common
    stock and are made only at the end of each quarter. Vesting is immediate for
    both the participant's contribution and the Company's matching contribution.

    Effective July 1, 1996, participants may borrow from their fund accounts a
    minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of
    their account balances. Each loan shall be treated as an investment of the
    borrower's account. The interest rate on participant loans issued during
    plan years 1998 and 1997 was 9.25%. The participant shall be required to
    repay the loan in approximately equal installments of principal and interest
    over a period not in excess of five years, or up to ten years for the
    purchase of a primary
<PAGE>

    residence. The loans are secured by an assignment of the participant's
    right, title, and interest in the participant's account balance. Repayment
    of principal and payment of interest will be effected through payroll
    withholding. The principal amount of the loan, together with all accrued
    interest, shall immediately become due when the participant is no longer
    employed by an employing company, as defined, and is no longer a party in
    interest under Section 3(14) of ERISA.

 6. DISPOSAL OF MICROWAVE INSTRUMENTATION BUSINESS UNIT

    In November 1997, the Company disposed of the microwave instrumentation
    business unit. During 1998, assets of $505,722 were transferred out of the
    Plan and into another account held by the Plan's trustee at the election of
    certain participants. These transfers have been accounted for as payments to
    participants in the accompanying statement of changes in net assets
    available for plan benefits.

 7. TRUST AGREEMENT

    At December 31, 1998, the Plan's assets were held by the Trustee of the
    Plan, Fidelity Management Trust Company. Company contributions are held and
    managed by the trustee, which invests cash received, interest, and dividend
    income and makes distributions to participants. Certain administrative
    functions are performed by officers or employees of the Company or its
    subsidiaries, and they act as the plan administrator. No such officer or
    employee receives compensation from the Plan. Administrative expenses, such
    as trustee fees, are paid by the Plan.

 8. INVESTMENTS

    The following table presents the fair values of investments that represent
    5% or more of the Plan's total investments for the years ended December 31,
    1998 and 1997:
