                       SENSORMATIC ELECTRONICS CORPORATION
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              (Dollars in Millions)

a)       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of
         Sensormatic Electronics Corporation and all of its subsidiaries (the
         "Company"). The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
         have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
         to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
         include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted
         accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
         of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
         accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
         included. Operating results for the three and nine month period ended
         March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
         be expected for the year ending June 30, 1997. For further information,
         refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
         included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
         June 30, 1996.

         In fiscal 1996, the Company changed its presentation from an
         unclassified to a classified balance sheet. The Company believes this
         change provides a better presentation of the Company's financial
         position and conforms with industry practice.

b)       RESTRUCTURING AND SPECIAL CHARGES

         During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company initiated an
         extensive and systematic review of its global operations, cost
         structure and balance sheet aimed at reducing its operating expenses,
         manufacturing costs and increasing efficiencies. As a result, the
         Company recorded restructuring and special charges totaling $186.0
         pretax in the second and third quarter of fiscal 1996 primarily for
         product rationalization and related equipment impairment charges,
         facility closures and severance costs, and increases in the valuation
         allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and inventories. The total
         restructuring and special charges recorded in the second and third
         quarter of fiscal 1996 were $85.3 and $100.7 pretax, respectively. The
         special charges are reflected in the accompanying Statement of
         Operations as follows:

         Approximately $33.3 of the restructuring costs recorded in fiscal 1996
         which totaled $85.3 will result in cash outlays, of which $17.6 was
         paid as of March 31, 1997. During the nine months of fiscal 1997, the
         restructuring reserve was reduced by approximately $16.8 as a result of
         cash and non-cash charges. The following table sets forth the details
         and the cumulative activity of the restructuring charges as of March
         31, 1997:

         The restructuring plan is expected to be substantially completed prior
         to the end of calendar year 1997 and the Company believes the
         provisions recorded are adequate to cover the costs associated with
         this plan.

c)       RECEIVABLES AND NET INVESTMENT IN SALES-TYPE LEASES

         Amounts due to the Company in the form of accounts receivable (which
         are due within 90 days), deferred receivables (which are generally due
         within one year), installment receivables (which generally have
         periodic payments over a term of five years) and net investment in
         sales-type leases (which principally have periodic payments over lease
         terms of five to six years) at March 31, 1997 and June 30, 1996 are
         summarized as follows :

         The Company received net proceeds of $311.0 and $287.0 from the sale or
         assignment of certain of its receivables and sales-type leases in the
         nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
         uncollected principal balance of receivables and sales-type leases sold
         which was subject to 




                                       6
<PAGE>   8


         varying amounts of recourse totaled $219.1 and $294.1 at March 31, 1997
         and 1996, respectively. Adequate reserves have been provided for
         receivables and leases sold and are included in accrued liabilities.

         Effective January 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
         Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities", for
         the various transfers of receivables that occurred subsequent to
         January 1, 1997. The transfer of receivables under certain of the
         Company's existing agreements continue to qualify for off-balance sheet
         treatment under the provisions of SFAS No. 125, principally the
         non-recourse portion of the U.S. factoring agreements. The transfer of
         receivables during the third quarter of fiscal 1997 under other
         existing receivable financing agreements was not material and was
         accounted for as financing transactions. Accordingly, the impact of
         adoption on net income in the 1997 third quarter was immaterial.

         In March 1997, the Company entered into a five-year 100 million pound
         sterling (approximately $160.0) uncommitted Asset Backed Commercial
         Paper Conduit Program (the "Program") with an affiliate of the Union
         Bank of Switzerland ("UBS"). The Program allows for the sale, and the
         related off-balance sheet treatment under the provisions of SFAS No.
         125, of accounts receivable from eligible equipment lease contracts
         originating in the United Kingdom and Scotland on a nonrecourse basis
         to Mont Blanc Receivables Financing Limited ("MBRF"), an entity
         sponsored by UBS. Under the Program, the Company will receive cash from
         MBRF equal to 85.0% of the accounts receivable sold and will retain a
         15.0% interest in the receivables sold in the form of a subordinated
         loan receivable due from MBRF. Repayment of the subordinated loan by
         MBRF and collection of other credit enhancement provisions on a
         priority basis, as per the terms of the Program, are subject to
         collection of the accounts receivable sold. Additionally, certain of
         the cash proceeds received are restricted in use and available to UBS
         in the event that the Company fails to perform its equipment
         maintenance and repair obligations. Under the terms of this Program,
         the Company has agreed to service the financial assets.

         In March 1997, the Company sold approximately $64.0 of the accounts
         receivable from eligible equipment lease contracts to MBRF for cash
         proceeds of $54.4 and issued a subordinated loan to MBRF for the
         remaining amount of $9.6. In accordance with SFAS No. 125, the Company
         has recorded all assets obtained and liabilities incurred related to
         this transaction at fair market value.

         In July 1996, the Company entered into a $75.0 receivable purchase
         agreement facility with a group of financial institutions. This
         committed facility allows the Company to sell certain of its U.S.
         receivables on a limited recourse basis. The U.S. receivables sold
         under this agreement principally include deferred and installment
         receivables. The Company is currently negotiating the terms of a new
         U.S. facility which will meet the requirements of SFAS No. 125 and
         allow the continued recognition of transfers of U.S. receivables as
         sales. Accordingly, the Company did not transfer any receivables under
         this existing facility during the third quarter of fiscal 1997.

e)       DEBT

         In December 1996, the Company entered into a $250.0 revolving credit
         agreement with a group of banks led by two major U.S. financial
         institutions. The facility has a three-year term and a maturity date of
         December 10, 1999.

f)       FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         INTEREST RATE AGREEMENTS
         The Company enters into interest rate agreements with financial
         institution counterparties principally to manage interest rate exposure
         associated with its sale of U.S. receivables and debt. See Note 13 of
         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 1996 Annual
         Report on Form 10-K for additional discussion.

         At March 31, 1997, the Company was a party to the following interest
         rate agreements:

         The weighted average interest rates paid and received under all such
         floating to fixed swap agreements at March 31, 1997 were 6.25% and
         5.17%, respectively.

         (2) INTEREST RATE CAP AGREEMENT
         In fiscal 1995, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement
         expiring in September 1999, with a notional amount at March 31, 1997 of
         $2.5. Under the agreement the Company will be paid an amount equal to
         the excess, if any, of the 1 month LIBOR over 7.0% multiplied by the
         notional amount. At March 31, 1997 there was no such excess.

         FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
         The Company conducts business in a wide variety of currencies and
         consequently enters into foreign exchange forward and option contracts
         to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
         These contracts generally involve the exchange of one currency for
         another at a future date and are used to hedge substantially all of the
         Company's anticipatory intercompany commitments.

         At March 31, 1997, the Company owned forward contracts and options
         which allow it to sell currencies for the indicated U.S. dollar
         amounts, in fiscal year 1998 and 1997, as follows:

g)       PROSPECTIVE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

         In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128 " Earnings per Share"
         and SFAS No. 129 "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure".
         SFAS No. 128 simplifies the current required calculation of earnings
         per share ("EPS") under APB No. 15, "Earnings per Share", by replacing
         the existing calculation of primary EPS with a basic EPS calculation.
         It requires a dual presentation, for complex capital structures, of
         basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement and requires
         a reconciliation of basic EPS factors to diluted EPS factors. SFAS No.
         129 requires disclosing information about an entity's capital
         structure. The Company plans to adopt SFAS 128 and SFAS 129, which are
         effective for periods after December 15, 1997, with no material impact
         to the Company's EPS calculation or disclosure information.

h)       RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts in the prior year's consolidated condensed financial
         statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's
         condensed presentation.

i)       LITIGATION AND OTHER MATTERS

         During the first six months of fiscal 1996, a number of class actions
         were filed in federal court by alleged shareholders of the Company
         following announcements by the Company that, among other things, its
         earnings for the quarter and year ended June 30, 1995, would be
         substantially below expectations and, in the later actions or complaint
         amendments, that the scope of the Company's year-end audit for the
         fiscal year ended 1995 had been expanded and that results for the third
         quarter of fiscal 1995 were being restated. These actions have been
         consolidated. The consolidated complaint alleges, among other things,
         that the Company and certain of its current and former directors,
         officers and employees, as well as the Company's auditors, violated
         certain Federal securities laws.

         One of the claims against the Company's auditors, asserted under state
         law, originally included in the consolidated complaint, has been
         dismissed by the Court. That claim alleged that the Company's auditors
         negligently misrepresented certain information regarding the Company
         and failed to exercise 


                                       9
<PAGE>   11

         reasonable care. The claims recited in the consolidated complaint
         relate to the same events and occurrences as those alleged in the
         various actions referred to above, updated to incorporate more recent
         events and occurrences and to reflect certain information furnished to
         plaintiffs during pre-trial discovery. The consolidated complaint
         requested certification of the action as a class action on behalf of
         all purchasers of the common stock of the Company and certain stock
         option traders from August 10, 1994 through October 2, 1995, including
         those shareholders who received common stock of the Company in
         connection with the Company's merger with Knogo. The consolidated
         complaint also seeks rescissory and/or compensatory damages,
         pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, costs, attorneys' fees, and
         other relief, and further provides that the shareholders of the Company
         who received common stock of the Company in connection with the merger
         with Knogo are tendering back to the Company such shares of common
         stock.

         The consolidated complaint supersedes all prior complaints in the
         consolidated actions. By stipulation, dated September 12, 1996, the
         parties to the consolidated class actions agreed to limit the proposed
         class to all persons who purchased, or received through the exercise of
         options, shares of common stock of the Company during the period from
         August 10, 1994 through and including August 31, 1995, provided that
         shares purchased on August 31, 1995 were purchased at a price of $25.25
         per share or higher. The stipulated class excludes persons who acquired
         common stock pursuant to the Company's merger with Knogo approved by
         its shareholders in December 1994. The stipulation was approved by the
         court in an order entered on September 30, 1996.

         Also in September 1995, three derivative actions were filed against the
         Company and its directors for breach of fiduciary duties, mismanagement
         and waste of corporate assets. Those claimants are seeking, among other
         relief, restitution and/or damages in favor of the Company and
         imposition of a constructive trust. These actions have been
         consolidated.

         Further, in May 1997, a declaratory judgment action was filed in
         federal court against the Company and certain of its current and former
         officers and certain of its directors by one of the Company's three
         directors and officers liability insurance carriers during the period
         December 15, 1994 to December 15, 1995. The insurance contract at
         issue in the suit provides $10.0 in coverage and is excess to $10.0 in
         primary directors and officers liability insurance for the period. The
         complaint seeks, among other things, (i) rescission of the
         above-referenced insurance contract; (ii) reformation of the insurance
         contract to exclude the hazards raised by the pending securities class
         actions and derivative actions referred to above, the GILFORD action
         and the SEC proceeding, all of which are described in the Company's
         Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996; and
         (iii) a declaratory judgment that the above-referenced insurance
         contract does not afford coverage for defendants for any loss arising
         out of such actions and proceeding. The complaint alleges, among other
         things, that the Company's applications for that insurance contract and
         attachments thereto contained material misrepresentations, omissions,
         concealment of facts and incorrect statements relating principally to
         the Company's revenue recognition practices which are also a subject of
         the actions and proceeding referred to above.

         The Company intends to vigorously defend against the foregoing actions.
         The ultimate outcome of these actions cannot presently be determined.
         Accordingly, no provision for any liability that may result has been
         made in the consolidated financial statements.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company's consolidated condensed financial statements present a
         consolidation of its worldwide operations. This discussion supplements
         the detailed information presented in the Consolidated Condensed
         Financial Statements and Notes thereto (which should be read in
         conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained
         in the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and is intended to
         assist the reader in understanding the financial results and condition
         of the Company.

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 
         1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996

         The following discussion of operating results excludes the effects of
         restructuring and special charges recorded in fiscal 1996, which are
         discussed in the section "Restructuring and Special Charges" below.

         REVENUES
         Revenues of $250.1 for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 reflect an
         increase of 11.0% over revenues of $225.3 for the same period in fiscal
         1996. The increase in the fiscal 1997 third quarter revenues was due to
         an increase in Worldwide Retail business revenues of 17.0% over the
         same period in fiscal 1996, partially offset by a 2.0% decrease in
         revenues of the Worldwide Commercial/Industrial business unit. Third
         quarter revenues for fiscal 1997 were negatively impacted by the
         strengthening of the U.S. dollar and the impact of foreign currency
         translation, resulting in a reduction of revenues of approximately $6.0
         as compared to the year ago quarter. Revenues of $752.7 for the nine
         months ended March 31, 1997 increased 2.0%, as compared to revenues of
         $737.1 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. Revenues for the nine
         months ended March 31, 1997 increased only slightly from the comparable
         period of the prior year which includes a major customer roll-out order
         of $28.1 during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The current period
         was also adversely impacted by product availability issues, principally
         within the CCTV product line.

         Consolidated EAS system revenues increased 12.3% to $128.0 in the third
         quarter of fiscal 1997 and were essentially flat at $393.6 for the nine
         months of fiscal 1997 as compared to the comparable periods of fiscal
         1996. The increase in the third quarter EAS revenues over the
         comparable period in the prior year resulted principally from increased
         revenues from the Ultra-Max product line, which is used primarily by
         retail customer. Year-to-date Ultra-Max revenues increased
         significantly, even after giving effect to the major customer roll-out
         in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 for $28.1; however, these increases
         were offset by decreases in revenues from the Company's AisleKeeper
         technology.

         CCTV system revenues remained relatively constant with the third
         quarter of 1996 with $77.6 for the third quarter of 1997, and increased
         3.2% to $227.9 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 from the
         comparable period of fiscal 1996. Worldwide Access Control system
         revenues decreased 3.4% to $15.2 and 6.1% to $43.7 for the third
         quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997, respectively, from the
         comparable periods of fiscal 1996.



                                       11
<PAGE>   13

         Revenues generated by the Commercial/Industrial Worldwide Operations
         ("C/I Worldwide") decreased 2.0% and remained constant in the third
         quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997, respectively, as compared
         to fiscal 1996. The decrease in revenues for the third quarter and the
         flat revenues for fiscal 1997 are principally due to the focus on
         channel harmonization between direct and dealer sales. Additionally,
         product availability problems in the CCTV product line, product
         competition and integration and rationalization activities in the U.S.
         and Europe also contributed to this outcome. The Company is currently
         consolidating its C/I Worldwide business in Europe to reduce costs and
         strategically position the C/I Worldwide business within this region
         for future growth and improved customer support. C/I Worldwide expects
         modest growth or flat revenues for the remainder of fiscal 1997 as
         compared to fiscal 1996 as a result of the above mentioned factors.

         In connection with C/I Worldwide's focus on its channel harmonization
         program, in May 1997, the Company agreed with Pinkerton's Inc. to the
         principal terms for the divestiture of its U.S. Commercial/Industrial
         systems integration business unit, subject to completion of due
         diligence and definitive agreements. This business unit has annual
         sales of approximately $80.0.

         For the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 1997, North
         America Retail revenues increased 33.3% and 6.0%, respectively, as
         compared to the same periods for fiscal 1996. For the third quarter of
         fiscal 1997, Ultra-Max revenues increased approximately 51.1% over
         the year ago quarter reflecting increased sales and numerous system
         upgrades by retailers. As previously indicated, the increase in
         revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, as compared to the
         same period in the prior year, was negatively impacted by a major
         customer roll-out order of $28.1 recorded in the first quarter of
         fiscal 1996.

         Europe Retail revenues decreased 3.5% and 5.7% for the third quarter
         and the first nine months of fiscal 1997, respectively, as compared to
         the same periods for fiscal 1996. The decrease in Europe retail
         revenues is primarily attributable to operations in the U.K. which have
         been negatively affected by the repositioning of its market focus and
         management changes. Third quarter Europe Retail revenues were
         also negatively affected by approximately $6.0 for foreign currency
         translation and the strengthening U.S. dollar.

         International Retail revenues, which includes the Latin America and
         Asia/Pacific regions, increased 46.9% and 25.9%, respectively, for the
         third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to
         the comparable periods of fiscal 1996. The increase in International
         Retail was largely due to the revenues earned in Latin America, which
         increased 71.4% and 39.4%, respectively, for the third quarter and the
         first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to the same periods of
         fiscal 1996. The increase is partially due to the acquisition in
         October 1996 of the Company's distributor in Argentina in a stock
         purchase transaction for cash of $14.8 and future contingent payments
         up to approximately $5.0. Excluding the effects of this acquisition, 
         the 1997 third quarter International Retail revenue increased 21.3% 
         due to increased business activity.

         GROSS MARGINS
         Effective fiscal 1997, the Company has classified certain customer and
         engineering expenses, previously classified in selling, customer
         service and administrative expenses (renamed as "selling, general and
         administrative"), as a component of costs of sales. Accordingly, prior
         year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period
         presentation.



                                       12
<PAGE>   14

         Gross margins on revenues were 47.3% and 46.3% for the three and nine
         month periods ended March 31, 1997, respectively, compared with 45.0%
         and 45.9% for the comparable periods of the prior year. The three
         months' increase in the gross margin is largely due to lower costs of
         manufacturing as a result of increased production volume efficiencies,
         as well as cost reduction efforts. The trend in quarterly gross margins
         over the preceding three quarters reflects consistent improvement,
         principally due to cost reduction programs, notwithstanding that
         certain segments of the Company's markets are experiencing dynamic
         pricing competition.

         OPERATING EXPENSES AND OPERATING INCOME
         Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total
         revenues, was 36.8% and 36.3% for the third quarter and the first nine
         months of fiscal 1997, respectively, as compared to 39.5% and 35.7% for
         the comparable periods in fiscal 1996. The decrease in expenses as a
         percent of revenues for the third quarter reflects the results of cost
         reduction efforts. In addition, the third quarter of fiscal 1997
         includes higher than normal levels of operating expenses in Europe,
         particularly in the U.K. The increase in expenses for the nine months
         ended March 31, 1997 over the comparable period of the prior year is
         due to the Company's sponsorship of the 1996 summer Olympics and
         incremental investments in the Company's infrastructure aimed at
         improving systems and processes. The Company completed its Olympic
         sponsorship activities and related expense exposure in the first
         quarter of fiscal 1997.

         Research, development and engineering expenses decreased to 2.4% and
         2.3% of revenue in the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997 as
         compared to 3.1% and 2.8% for the same periods in fiscal 1996,
         respectively. Research, development and engineering spending has
         decreased as a percentage of revenues as compared to the prior year,
         due to revenue increases and the Company's increased focus on certain
         key product development initiatives.

         Operating income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1997
         increased to $15.0, or 6.0% of revenues, and to $43.2, or 5.7% of
         revenues, respectively, versus $1.0, or 0.4% of revenues, and $42.8, or
         5.8% of revenues, respectively, for the comparable periods of fiscal
         1996. Due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and the impact of
         foreign currency translation, operating income for the three months
         ended March 31, 1997 was reduced by approximately $2.0 as compared to
         the comparable period in fiscal 1996.

         INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER INCOME AND TAXES
         Net interest expense of $8.0 and $23.0 for the third quarter and first
         nine months of fiscal 1997, respectively, reflected an increase of $2.4
         and $7.9 over the comparable periods of fiscal 1996. This increase is
         primarily due to increased debt levels outstanding during the period as
         well as an increase in the Company's weighted average interest rate on
         its borrowings which reflects the Company's decision to substitute
         short-term variable rate for long-term fixed rate borrowings. In the
         third and fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company issued $350.0 of
         Senior Notes, the proceeds of which were used to repay short-term U.S.
         and European bank borrowings and for general corporate purposes.

         Other, net for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 includes gains of
         approximately $2.4 as a result of the cancellation of certain foreign
         currency contracts. The Company canceled certain forward contracts
         which allowed it to sell British Pounds for fixed U.S. dollar amounts
         as a result of the recapitalization of its U.K. affiliate.

                                       13
<PAGE>   15


         The provision for income taxes for the first nine months of fiscal 1997
         is based on an estimated effective annual consolidated tax rate of
         29.0% compared to an estimated effective annual consolidated tax
         benefit of 39.0% utilized for the first nine months of fiscal 1996. The
         tax benefit for the prior year related primarily to the restructuring
         and special charges recorded during the second and third quarter of
         fiscal 1996. In August 1996, Congress repealed the favorable tax status
         in Puerto Rico which will be phased out over a ten year period for
         years beginning after December 31, 1995. The Company does not
         anticipate any significant adverse effects as a result of the new law
         through fiscal year 2002; for the years thereafter, the Company is
         evaluating the impact which is linked to the Company's further growth
         and investment in its Puerto Rico manufacturing facility.

         The Company reported net income of $5.8, or $0.08 per share, and $14.0,
         or $0.19 per share, for the third quarter and first nine months of
         fiscal 1997, respectively, as compared to a loss of $50.0, or $0.68 per
         share, and a loss of $98.2, or $1.33 per share (including restructuring
         and special charges), respectively, for the same periods of fiscal
         1996, as a result of the factors discussed above. Excluding the
         restructuring and special charges, the Company reported a net loss of
         $1.3, or $0.02 per share, and income of $20.0, or $0.27 per share, for
         the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1996, respectively.


         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Overall, for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, cash and marketable
         securities decreased $53.0, primarily due to increases in inventories,
         third-party receivables from financing institutions for accounts
         receivable sold, capital expenditures, investments in revenue equipment
         and acquisitions, offset by cash from operations of $86.5 and an
         increase in short-term bank borrowings and other debt.

         More specifically, for the nine month period ended March 31, 1997, cash
         flow used in operating activities was $18.3 compared with cash used in
         operations for the nine month period ended March 31, 1996 of $67.5. The
         use of cash in the nine month period ended March 31, 1997 was primarily
         a result of increases in inventories and third party receivables from
         financing institutions. The receivables from financing institutions are
         included as a component of "other current and noncurrent assets".

         The increase in inventories results from delayed new product
         introductions, lower third quarter revenues than forecasted and the
         adjustment of safety stocks for key products in order to reduce lead
         time on sales and improve customer service. The Company continues to
         place substantial focus on inventory management through improved
         forecasting, its sales pipeline management program and production
         planning.

         The Company's investing activities used $69.7 of cash in the first nine
         months of fiscal 1997, compared to $74.5 in the first nine months of
         fiscal 1996. The investing activity in fiscal 1997 was principally due
         to capital expenditures of $31.7, increases in the Company's investment
         in revenue equipment of $23.9 and an acquisition of $14.8. The capital
         expenditures principally include investments in manufacturing
         operations for new production equipment and the addition of
         enterprise-wide management information system software to enhance
         operational efficiencies and improve customer service. The world-wide
         implementation of this system is currently underway and is expected to
         be completed during the calendar year 1998. The increases in revenue
         equipment are due to the expansion of the Company's operating lease
         base. As previously mentioned, the Company acquired its distributor in
         Argentina during the second quarter of fiscal 1997 for cash; see above
         for further discussion. 


                                       14

<PAGE>   16

         For the nine month period ended March 31, 1997, financing activities
         generated $34.9 of cash as compared to $196.7 in the nine month period
         ended March 31, 1996. Cash flows from financing activities were
         principally due to additional borrowings of approximately $44.6,
         primarily from the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility,
         offset, in part, by cash dividends of $12.5 paid on common stock. 
         The Company's percentage of total debt to total capital was 40.6% at 
         March 31, 1997 as compared to 38.3% at June 30, 1996. 

         In December 1996, the Company entered into a new $250.0 multicurrency
         revolving credit agreement. The new facility has a three-year term and
         a maturity date of December 10, 1999. The new facility replaced the
         Company's pre-existing $320.0 line of credit.

         Effective in January 1997, the Company adopted the requirements of SFAS
         No. 125 for the various transfers of receivables that occurred
         subsequent to January 1, 1997. Certain of the Company's existing
         agreements continue to qualify for off-balance sheet treatment under
         the provisions of SFAS No. 125, principally the non-recourse portion of
         the U.S. factoring agreements. The transfer of receivables during the
         third quarter of fiscal 1997 under other existing financing agreements
         was not material and was accounted for as financing transactions.
         Accordingly, the impact of adoption of SFAS No. 125 on net income in
         the third quarter of 1997 was immaterial.

         The Company is currently negotiating the terms of a new U.S.
         receivables purchase agreement facility to meet the requirements under
         SFAS No. 125. The U.S. receivables sold under its existing $75.0
         receivable purchase agreement facility, which was substantially
         utilized at December 31, 1996, principally represent deferred and
         installment receivables. The Company did not transfer any receivables
         under this existing facility during the third quarter of fiscal 1997.

         In March 1997, the Company entered into a five-year 100 million pound
         sterling (approximately $160.0) uncommitted Asset Backed Commercial
         Paper Conduit Program (the "Program") with an affiliate of the Union
         Bank of Switzerland ("UBS"). The Program allows for the sale, and the
         related off-balance sheet treatment under the provision of SFAS No.
         125, of accounts receivable from eligible equipment lease contracts
         originating in the United Kingdom and Scotland on a nonrecourse basis.
         In March 1997, the Company sold approximately $64.0 of accounts
         receivable from eligible equipment lease contracts under this Program
         and received cash proceeds of approximately $54.4 and issued a
         subordinated loan to MBRF for the remaining amount of $9.6. See Note c)
         in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further
         discussion.

         At March 31, 1997, the Company's primary sources of liquidity consisted
         of cash, committed and uncommitted lines of credit totaling
         approximately $361.5 (of which approximately $55.2 was utilized) and
         receivable financing agreements, all of which are available subject to
         compliance with certain covenants. The Company believes that the
         liquidity provided by future operations, existing cash and the
         financing arrangements described above will be sufficient to meet the
         Company's future capital requirements.

         The Company uses the U.S. dollar as the reporting currency for
         financial statement purposes. The Company conducts business in numerous
         countries around the world through its international subsidiaries which
         use local currencies to denominate their transactions, and is,
         therefore, subject to certain risks associated with fluctuating foreign
         currencies. The resulting changes in the statements do not indicate any
         underlying changes in the financial position of the international
         subsidiaries but 


                                       15
<PAGE>   17

         merely adjust the carrying value of the net assets of these
         subsidiaries at the current U.S. dollar exchange rate. Because of the
         long-term nature of the Company's investment in these subsidiaries, the
         translation adjustments resulting from these exchange rate fluctuations
         are excluded from results of operations and recorded in a separate
         component of consolidated stockholders' equity. The $20.6 decrease for
         the nine months ended March 31, 1997 resulted primarily from the
         translation of the balance sheets denominated in French francs, German
         marks and Spanish pesetas, reflecting the strengthening of the U.S.
         dollar relative to such currencies at March 31, 1997. The Company
         monitors its currency exposures but has decided not to hedge its
         translation exposures due to the high economic costs of such a program
         and the long-term nature of its investment in its international
         subsidiaries.


         RESTRUCTURING AND SPECIAL CHARGES

         During fiscal 1996, the Company initiated a restructuring plan with the
         following objectives: (i) expense reduction and asset control; (ii)
         improved processes and systems; and (iii) quality growth. The initial
         phase of this plan included an extensive review of the Company's
         operations and cost structure. As a result, the Company recorded
         restructuring charges of $85.3 in the second and third quarters of
         fiscal 1996, primarily for product rationalization and related
         equipment impairment charges, facility closures and severance costs.

         The Company planned for the reduction of 875 people and the sale,
         disposal or termination of lease arrangements of approximately 30
         locations, principally in the U.K. and U.S. As of March 31, 1997, the
         planned staff reductions are substantially completed and approximately
         one-half of the locations have been eliminated and the remaining
         locations are in various stages of disposition. During the first nine
         months of fiscal 1997, the restructuring reserve was reduced by
         approximately $16.8 as a result of cash and non-cash charges.

         Approximately $33.3 of the restructuring costs will result in cash
         outlays, of which $17.6 has been disbursed as of March 31, 1997. The
         restructuring plan is expected to be substantially completed prior to
         the end of calendar year 1997, and the Company believes the provisions
         recorded are adequate to cover the costs associated with this plan.

         Additionally, during the second and third quarters of fiscal 1996, the
         Company performed an extensive review of its balance sheet, due
         primarily to the weakening in the retail industry following a poor
         holiday season. As a result of this review, the Company recorded
         special charges of $100.7, primarily representing increases in the
         valuation allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and inventories.
         These special charges were included in the Consolidated Statement of
         Operations as follows:

         PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

         Item 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


         A complaint in a declaratory judgment action against the Company and
         certain of its current and former officers and certain of its directors
         has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern
         District of Florida by Reliance National Insurance Company, one of the
         Company's three directors and officers liability insurance carriers
         during the period December 15, 1994 to December 15, 1995. RELIANCE
         NATIONAL INSURANCE COMPANY V. SENSORMATIC ELECTRONICS CORPORATION, ET
         AL., Case No. 97-8364. The complaint was filed on May 9, 1997, but has
         not yet been served on the Company. In addition to the Company, the
         complaint names as defendants Ronald G. Assaf, the Company's Chairman
         of the Board of Directors and former Chief Executive Officer and
         President; James E. Lineberger, John T. Ray, Jr., and Jerome M. LeWine,
         all members of the Company's Board of Directors; Dennis C. Gillette,
         the Company's former Vice President of Sales; Lawrence Simmons, the
         Company's former Vice President of Finance; and Gerd Witter, the
         Company's Senior Vice President of Europe. The insurance contract at
         issue in the suit provides $10.0 million in coverage and is excess to
         $10.0 million in primary directors and officers liability insurance for
         the period.

         The complaint seeks, among other things, (i) rescission of the
         above-referenced insurance contract pursuant to Sections 627.409(l)(a)
         and (l)(b), Florida Statutes; (ii) reformation of the insurance
         contract to exclude the hazards raised by the pending securities class
         actions, the GILFORD action, the derivative actions and the SEC
         proceeding described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
         the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996; and (iii) a declaratory judgment,
         pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 2201, that the above-referenced insurance
         contract does not afford coverage for defendants for any loss arising
         out of such actions and proceeding. The complaint alleges, among other
         things, that the Company's applications for that insurance contract and
         attachments thereto contained material misrepresentations, omissions,
         concealment of facts and incorrect statements relating principally to
         the Company's revenue recognition practices which are also a subject
         of the actions and proceeding referred to above.

         The Company intends to defend this action vigorously and to enforce the
         insurance contract at issue.

         In addition, reference is made to Item 1 of Part II of the Company's
         Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1996
         and to the Company's current report on Form 8-K filed November 21,
         1996.
