-------
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three month periods
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 have been prepared by AstroPower, Inc. (Company)
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of

omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, management of the
Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. The accompanying financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the
Company's Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The
results of operations for interim periods may not be indicative of the results
that may be expected for the entire year.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
We develop, manufacture, market and sell a range of solar electric power
products, including solar cells, modules and panels, for the global marketplace.
Solar cells are semiconductor devices which convert sunlight into electricity
and form the building block for all solar electric power products. Historically,
our products have primarily been used to generate electricity for users not
connected to the utility grid. Such applications include electrification of
rural homes and villages, and power supply for equipment in the communications
and transportation industries. More recently our products are also being used by
customers already connected to the utility grid as a clean, renewable source of
alternative or supplemental electricity. Additionally, through our joint venture
agreement with GPU International, we generate and sell wholesale solar electric
power.
We currently generate product revenues from the sale of solar cells, modules,
and panels. Although we are continuing a significant expansion of our Silicon-
Film manufacturing capacity, the predominant source of our product revenues to
date has been recycled wafer products. We recognize product sales revenue upon
shipment. Solar cell prices and manufacturing costs vary depending upon supply
and demand in the market for solar cells and modules, order size, yields, the
costs of raw materials, particularly reclaimed silicon wafers recycled from the
semiconductor industry, and other factors. Product sales represented 93.0% of
total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000. In addition, we also
generate revenue from contracts with various federal government agencies to
conduct research on advanced Silicon-Film products and optoelectronic devices.
Generally, these contracts last from six months to three years. We recognize
research contract revenue at the time costs benefiting the contracts are
incurred, which approximates the percentage of completion method.
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, 83% of our product revenues were
generated by sales to customers located outside of the United States. We
believe that international sales will continue to account for a significant
portion of our product sales for the foreseeable future. Current sales are
denominated in U.S. dollars and foreign exchange rate fluctuations have not had
an impact on our results of operations.
Solar cells that we manufacture are sold to original equipment manufacturers
that assemble the solar cells into modules. We sell modules to distributors and
value-added resellers. The sale of a module results in substantially more
revenue to us than the sale of solar cells due to the value of the additional
materials, labor and overhead added during the module assembly process.
Accordingly, our product sales are affected not just by changes in total solar
cells produced, but by changes in the mix between solar cells and modules sold.
The gross margin percentages for modules are generally less than those of solar
cells and as a result, changes in the mix of solar cells and modules sold may
affect total product gross margin.
Substantially all of our revenues from government contracts are subject to audit
under various federal statutes. Although we have received final written
acceptance of our overhead rates through 1993, the Defense Contract Audit Agency
is now disputing certain elements of those submissions as well as the overhead
rates for 1994 and 1995. The dispute is centered on the effect of our
manufacturing operations on our government contract overhead rates during the
years of transition from a contract research and development organization to
commercial manufacturing. The overhead rates for 1996 have been submitted, but
have not yet been audited. This dispute does not affect our overhead rates for
1997, 1998 and 1999, inasmuch as we revised our methodology for determining
overhead rates. We believe that adjustments to revenue, if any, will not have a
material adverse effect on our business and financial condition, but may impact
results of operations.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
Revenues - Our total revenues were $10.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, an increase of $3.3 million or 45.7% from 1999. Product sales
were $9.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $3.4
million or 53.5% from 1999. Our increase in product sales was due to ongoing
strong demand for our products and expansion of manufacturing capacity at both
our manufacturing plants to meet demands. Contract revenues were $732,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000, a decrease of $106,000 or 12.7% from
1999.
Gross profit - Our gross profit was $3.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, an increase of $1.5 million or 79.1% from 1999. Product gross
profit for 2000 was $3.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million or 87.6% from
1999. Our product gross margin was 31.3% for the three months ended March 31,
2000. In the similar 1999 period, the product gross margin was 25.6%. Our 2000
first quarter increase in product gross margins was due to improvements in
manufacturing productivity and the effects of increased manufacturing volumes on
unit costs. Our gross profit on research contracts for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 was $262,000, an increase of $39,000 or 17.5% from the 1999
period.
Product development costs - Our product development costs for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 were $623,000, up $67,000 or 12.1% from 1999, as a result
of increased levels of development efforts related to new products.
General and administrative expenses - Our general and administrative expenses
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $857,000, an increase of $203,000
or 31.0% from the similar 1999 period. The increase is primarily a result of
higher levels of salaries, professional fees and insurance expenses.
Selling expenses - Our selling expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2000 were $539,000, an increase of $279,000 or 107.3% from 1999. The increase
is due to higher salary costs as a result of additions to the sales and
marketing staff, and higher advertising expenditures.
Interest income - Our interest income for the three months ended March 31,
2000 was $341,000, as compared with $42,000 in the 1999 period. The increase is
due to higher cash balances as a result of our follow-on public offering in
October, 1999.
Income taxes - Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were
$477,000, as compared with $122,000 in 1999, representing an effective rate of
30%. Our effective tax rate is lower than the statutory rates, principally as a
result of research and experimentation tax credits and the benefit of a Foreign
Sales Corporation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2000, we had cash of $23.4 million, as compared with $25.3 million
at December 31, 1999. The decrease in the cash balance during the 2000 first
quarter was due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory balances and
to increases in capital expenditures, offset by increases in accounts payable
and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
As a result of anticipated changes in payment terms of certain of our customers,
we expect that the balance of accounts receivable will increase at a more
moderate rate over the balance of 2000.
7
<PAGE>
Our sources of liquidity as of March 31, 2000 consist principally of cash of
$23.4 million, and available bank credit lines of $4 million. Any borrowings
under our bank facilities will be secured by accounts receivable, inventory and
machinery and equipment. There were no borrowings outstanding under the bank
credit lines as of March 31, 2000.
We expect that the available cash balance, together with projected cash
generated from operations and available bank credit lines, will be sufficient to
fund our activities for the next 24 months.
