CONDUCTUS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

          FISCAL YEAR:

          The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Friday of
     the month.  For convenience of presentation, the accompanying financial
     statements have been shown as ending on the last day of the calendar month
     of each applicable period.

          UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

          The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been
     prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
     Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosure normally
     included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
     such rules and regulations, although management believes that the
     disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
     The unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 1996 and for the
     three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, include, in
     the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
     adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set
     herein.  The results of operations for the interim periods is not
     necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire year.
     The December 31, 1995 balance sheet was derived from audited financial
     statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally
     accepted accounting principles.

     INVENTORIES:

          Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in,
     first-out basis) or market.  Appropriate consideration is given to
     obsolescence, excessive levels and other factors in evaluating net
     realizable value.

     COMPUTATION OF NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:

          Net loss per common share is based upon the weighted average number of
     common and common equivalent shares outstanding.  Common equivalent shares
     are included in the per share calculations where the effect of their
     inclusion would be dilutive.

4.   BANK LINE OF CREDIT:

          In June 1996, the Company modified its line of credit
     facility with a bank to renegotiate borrowing levels and certain
     restrictions on cash balances.  At September 30, 1996 no borrowings
     were outstanding under the credit  facility.


5.   LONG TERM DEBT:

           In March 1996, the Company obtained a $1,000,000 credit facility
     with a financial institution primarily to finance costs associated with the
     aquisition of equipment.  Borrowings are at the bank's prime rate plus 1.0%
     (9.25% at September 30, 1996) with interest paid monthly, and are
     collateralized by the related equipment.  Principal installments commenced
     July 1996 for a thirty month period.  At September 30, 1996 no borrowings
     were available under the credit facility.

                                     -7-

6.   EQUITY:

     In June 1996, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock in a
public offering for net proceeds of approximately $10 million, which will be
used for working capital, retirement of lines of credit and further development
of its superconducting products.  Proceeds were received July 1, 1996.  The
completion of the offering eliminated restriction on cash balances and reduced
interest rates on borrowings.

ITEM 2:        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-Q CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS
AND UNCERTAINTIES.  THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE
RESULTS DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.  FACTORS THAT MIGHT CAUSE
SUCH A DIFFERENCE INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED IN "RISK
FACTORS" IN PART 1 OF THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K AT AND FOR THE
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND IN THE FINAL PROSPECTUS DATED JUNE 26, 1996
INCLUDED AS PART OF THE COMPANY'S REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-1 (NO. 333-
3815).  THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO APPEARING ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS.

OVERVIEW

Conductus develops, manufactures and markets electronic components and systems
based on superconductors for applications in the communications, healthcare and
instrumentation markets.  As of September 30, 1996, Conductus had accumulated
losses of approximately $28,193,000 and expects to incur additional losses at
least during 1996 due to the Company's planned expansion of operations.
Conductus, alone or with collaborative partners, must successfully develop,
manufacture, introduce and market its potential products in order to achieve
profitability.  Conductus does not expect to recognize meaningful product sales
until it successfully develops and commercializes superconductive components,
systems and subsystems that address significant market needs.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

The Company's total revenues increased to $3,273,000 and $8,895,000 for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, compared to $3,012,000
and $7,428,000, respectively, for the same periods in 1995.  Total revenue
consists primarily of contract revenue and, to a lesser extent, product
revenues.  Revenues under U.S. government research and development contracts
increased to $2,469,000 and $7,089,000 for the same periods in 1996,
respectfully, from $2,176,000 and $5,675,000 in the same periods in the prior
year, respectively, and represented 75% and 80% of total revenues for the
periods, respectively.  The increase in contract revenues in the third quarter
of 1996 is largely attributable to the addition of several new contracts which
are expected to  maintain the increased level of contract revenues over contract
revenues for comparable periods in the prior year.  At September 30, 1996
Conductus had a backlog of $4,041,000 under existing U.S. government contracts,
most of which is expected to be performed in the next 12 months, and $12,423,000
in awards from U.S. government agencies for which such agencies had not yet
entered into research contracts with the Company.  The recognition of revenue
and receipt of payment pursuant to these contracts and awards are subject to
numerous risks.

                                     -9-

<PAGE>

Revenues from sales of large-scale superconducting magnetic systems, SQUIDs, HTS
thin films and other products were $804,000 and $1,806,000 for the three and
nine month periods of 1996, compared to $836,000 and $1,753,000 of product
revenues for the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in the three month
period is primarliy due to revenues from standard products in 1996 versus the
same period in prior year in which a larger portion of revenues resulted from
several large systems sales.  The increase in the nine month period is primarily
related to superconductivity systems and instruments introduced late in 1995 and
in 1996.  The large scale superconducting systems have large unit prices and are
sold in low volumes, and thus significant fluctuations in sales of these systems
may occur between quarters.  Conductus does not expect to recognize significant
product sales until it successfully develops and commercializes superconductive
components and systems addressing significant markets.

Cost of products were $552,000 and $1,216,000 for the three and nine month
periods of 1996, compared to $488,000 and $942,000 for the same periods in the
prior year.  The increase in cost of products was directly related to new
product sales and, to a lesser extent, large system introductions.  Gross
margins decreased to 31% and 33% for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1996 from 42% and 46%, respectively, in the same periods in the
prior year.  The reduction reflects changes in commercial product mix and the
introduction fo several new products that incurred higher than expected start-up
costs in cost of sales.  Costs of contract revenues are included in research and
development expenses.

Research and development expenses increased to $3,011,000 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1996 from $2,438,000 for the same period in the prior
year based on increased current year efforts on wireless and Nuclear Magnetic
Resonance (NMR).  The nine month period expenses for 1996 of $8,724,000
increased 19% over the $7,351,000 for the same period in the prior year period.
The increase is directly related to the development of commercial products,
particularly in the wireless and NMR areas.  The Company expects to continue to
incur significant research and development expenses as it seeks to market
additional products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,017,000 and
$2,974,000 for the three and nine month periods in 1996 from $964,000 and
$2,749,000 for the same periods in 1995.  These costs increased in 1996 compared
to the prior year due to increased recruiting costs with expanding the staff and
the increasing size of the Company.  Headcount increased to 127 at September 30,
1996 from 109 at September 30, 1995.   Additionally, as the Company begins to
market commercial products, there will be additional sales and marketing costs
over those incurred in the remainder of 1996.


                                     -10-

<PAGE>

The Company's total operating expenses increased to $4,579,000 and $12,915,000
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, increases of 18%
and 17%, respectively, over the $3,890,000 and $11,042,000, respectively,  for
the same periods in 1995.

Interest income was $109,000 and $158,000 in the three and nine month periods of
1996 compared to $59,000 and $206,000 during the same respective periods in
1995.  The primary reason for the increase is due to increased cash and
investments from the company's recent equity offering.  Interest charges
increased on the Company's debt financing to approximately $47,000 and $133,000
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 compared to
$45,000 and $97,000 for the same period in 1995, due to increased borrowings
resulting from purchases of capital equipment.

The Company has not paid income taxes since inception due to its cumulative
operating losses.

                                     -11-

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has financed its operations since inception primarily through
$13,251,000 in net proceeds from its initial public offering of Common Stock in
August 1993, $9,892,000 in net proceeds from its follow-on public offering of
Common Stock in June 1996, $14,645,000 raised in private placement financing,
$30,405,000 from U.S. government contracts, $5,482,000 in aggregate borrowings
under three equipment lease lines of credit and equipment term loan and
$3,314,000 in interest income.  As of September 30, 1996, the Company had
aggregate cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $8,882,000.

Net cash used in operations was $3,788,000 for the first nine months of 1996 as
compared to $3,665,000 for the same period in 1995.  The increase in net cash
used in operating activities in the first nine months of 1996 over the same
period of the prior year was primarily due to an increase in the operating loss,
as well as increases in accounts receivable and inventory, prepaid expenses
offset by a larger increase in liabilities in 1996 compared to 1995. The Company
anticipates that its accounts receivable from revenues under U.S. government
contracts and product sales, as well as inventories, will remain constant or
decrease during the remainder of 1996, while current liabilities  will decrease.

Net cash used in investing activities was $6,375,000 for the first nine months
of 1996 compared to cash provided by investing activities of  $1,946,000 for the
first nine months of 1995.  During 1996, net cash was used in purchasing short
term investments from the proceeds of the Company's recent equity offering.
During 1995, net cash was provided by net reductions in short-term investments,
offset to some extent by purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash from financing activities was $10,537,000 for the first nine months of
1996 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1,731,000 in the
first nine months of the prior year.  Net cash provided by financing activities
in the first nine months of 1996 were primarily due to the borrowings under the
Company's equipment term loan, and proceeds from the issuance of equity through
the Company's sale of 1,000,000 shares in June 1996, offset by principal
payments under long term debt and capital lease obligations.

The Company to date has received limited revenues from product sales. The
development of the Company's potential products will require a commitment of
substantial funds to conduct  further research and development and testing of
its potential products, to establish commercial-scale manufacturing and to
market any resulting products.  The Company expects to use less than $500,000 of
cash to support its current facilities and equipment requirements in the
remainder of 1996.

                                     -12-

<PAGE>

The actual amount of the Company's future capital requirements exclusive of
facilities will depend on many factors that affects its business.  Conductus
anticipates that its existing available cash should be adequate to fund the
Company's operations for at least the next year.  There can be no assurance that
additional funding will be available on acceptable terms or at all, if required.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

The Company's business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that
may have a material adverse effect the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.  These risks include the following factors relating
to the Company:  early stages of superconductive electronics markets;
accumulated deficit and anticipated future losses; uncertainty of financial
results; quarterly fluctuations; high degree of dependence upon other
complementary technologies; reliance on limited- or sole-source suppliers;
dependence on incorporation of potential products and third party systems;
extensive reliance on collaborative relationships; rapid technological change;
intense competition techniques; competing technologies; uncertainty of patent
and proprietary rights; risks of litigation; dependence on license technology;
substantial future capital needs; limited commercial manufacturing capabilities;
need to develop infrastructure to support commercialization; limited outlets for
certain products; high degree of dependence upon government contracts; highly
regulated potential product applications; environmental regulations; attraction
and intention of key employees ; volatility of stock price; effect of certain
charter provisions; anti-takeover effects of restated certificate of
incorporation and bylaw provisions of Delaware laws; shares eligible for future
sales; registration rights; absence of dividends; and dilution.  These risks are
discussed in detail in the "Risk Factors" section on page 6 of the Company's
final prospectus dated June 26, 1996 included in its Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-3815).  A copy of the Registration Statement may
be inspected by anyone without charge at the offices of Securities and Exchange
Commission at 450 5th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, and copies of all or
