               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)



1.       Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated financial statements of Actel
Corporation  (the  "Company")  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,  these
financial  statements  do  not  include  all of the  information  and  footnotes
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.

         The  Company  uses a thirteen  week  quarter  for  quarterly  financial
reporting.  For  ease of  presentation,  the  accompanying  quarterly  financial
statements  have been shown as ending on the last day of the  calendar  quarter.
The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of the Company and
its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries.   All  significant  intercompany  accounts  and
transactions  have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain  reclassifications
have  been  made to  prior  year  amounts  in order to  conform  to the  current
presentation.

         The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for
the year ended  December 31, 1995.  The results of operations for the six months
ended June 30,  1996,  are not  necessarily  indicative  of results  that may be
expected for the entire year ending December 29, 1996.

2.       Inventories

         Inventories consist of the following:

</TABLE>
         Inventories  are stated at the lower of cost  (first-in,  first-out) or
market  (net  realizable  value).  Given the  volatility  of the  market for the
Company's  products,  the Company makes  inventory  provisions  for  potentially
excess and obsolete  inventory  based on backlog and forecast  demand.  However,
such backlog demand is subject to revisions,  cancellations,  and  rescheduling.
Actual demand will inevitably differ from such backlog and forecast demand,  and
such differences may be material to the financial  statements.  Excess inventory
increases  handling costs and the risk of obsolescence,  is a non-productive use
of  capital  resources,  and  delays  realization  of the price and  performance
benefits associated with more advanced manufacturing processes.

3.       Provision for Taxes

         The  Company's  effective  tax rate for the six  months  ended June 30,
1996, was 37.5%.  This rate is based on the estimated  annual tax rate complying
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." This rate differs from the federal statutory rate due primarily to state
income taxes (net of federal  benefit) and  recognition of certain  deferred tax
assets subject to valuation allowances as of December 31, 1995.

4.       Earnings Per Share

         Earnings  per common and common  equivalent  share as  presented on the
face of the  statements of income  represent  primary  earnings per share.  Dual
presentation  of primary and fully diluted  earnings per share has not been made
because the differences are insignificant.

Item 2.       Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
              and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

         Net Revenues

         The Company's  net revenues for the second  quarter of fiscal 1996 were
$36.7  million,  which  represents an increase of 5% compared with the Company's
net revenues for the first  quarter of 1996 and an increase of 38% compared with
the Company's net revenues for the second  quarter of 1995. Net revenues for the
first six months of fiscal 1996 were $71.7 million, which represents an increase
of 56%  compared  with the  Company's  net  revenues for the first six months of
1995.

         The sequential growth in quarterly net revenues resulted primarily from
a 14% increase in unit sales of field  programmable  gate arrays  ("FPGAs") that
was partially  offset by a decline of 8% in the overall average selling price of
FPGAs. Units sales of all product families except ACT 2 increased  sequentially.
The overall  average  selling price of FPGAs declined  sequentially  principally
because of the migration by customers from ACT 2 products to XL products,  which
have lower average selling prices.

         The year-over-year  growth in quarterly net revenues resulted primarily
from a 29%  increase  in FPGA units  sales  coupled  with a 7%  increase  in the
overall average selling price of FPGAs. The  year-over-year  growth in six-month
net revenues  resulted  primarily from a 43% increase in FPGA unit sales coupled
with a 7% increase in the overall  average  selling  price of FPGAs.  Unit sales
increased principally because of new product sales and the Company's acquisition
during  the  first  quarter  of 1995 of the  antifuse  FPGA  business  of  Texas
Instruments  Incorporated  ("TI").  The  acquisition of TI's FPGA business had a
negative  influence on net revenues for the first quarter of 1995 and a positive
effect on net revenues for subsequent quarters.  Accordingly, the year-over-year
growth rates in net revenues are not indicative of future results.

         As is typical in the semiconductor industry, the average selling prices
of the Company's products generally decline over the lives of such products.  To
increase  revenues,  the  Company  seeks to  increase  unit  sales  of  existing
products,  principally  by  reducing  prices,  and to  introduce  and  sell  new
products. No assurance can be given that these efforts will be successful.

         Gross Margin

         Gross  margin for the second  quarter of 1996 was 56% of net  revenues,
compared  with 55% of net revenues for the first  quarter of 1996 and 50% of net
revenues for the second  quarter of 1995.  Gross margin for the first six months
of 1996 was 56% of net revenues, compared with 50% of net revenues for the first
six months of 1995.

         The  sequential  improvement  in gross margin  resulted  primarily from
improved  manufacturing  yields and the generation of an increased percentage of
net revenues  from sales of the Company's  new product  families,  which command
higher  margins.  The Company's  gross margin for the second quarter of 1996 was
also benefited from appreciation in the value of the United States dollar versus
the  Japanese  yen,  in  which  some  of  the  Company's   wafer  purchases  are
denominated.

                                        7

                                     <PAGE>

         The year-over-year  improvement in gross margin resulted primarily from
the Company's acquisition of TI's FPGA business, which has positively influenced
the  Company's net revenues and overall  average  selling  price.  The Company's
gross  margin  for 1996  also  benefited  from the  generation  of an  increased
percentage of net revenues  from sales of the Company's  newer ACT 3, XL, and DX
product  families,  which command higher margins than the Company's  older ACT 1
and ACT 2 product families.

         As is typical in the semiconductor  industry,  margins on the Company's
products  generally  decline  as the  average  selling  prices of such  products
decline.  The  Company  seeks to  offset  margin  erosion  by  selling  a higher
percentage of new products,  which tend to have higher  margins than more mature
products,  and by reducing costs. The Company seeks to reduce costs by improving
wafer yields, negotiating price reductions with suppliers,  increasing the level
and efficiency of its testing and packaging  operations,  achieving economies of
scale by means of higher  production  levels,  and  increasing the number of die
produced per wafer by shrinking the die size of its  products.  No assurance can
be given that these efforts will be successful. The capability of the Company to
shrink  the die  size of its  FPGAs is  dependent  on the  availability  of more
advanced  manufacturing   processes.   Due  to  the  custom  steps  involved  in
manufacturing  antifuse  FPGAs,  the  Company  typically  obtains  access to new
manufacturing  processes later than its competitors using standard manufacturing
processes.

         Research and Development

         Research and  development  expenditures  for the second quarter of 1996
were $5.7 million, or 15% of net revenues, compared with $6.0 million, or 17% of
net  revenues,  for the first  quarter of 1996 and $4.9  million,  or 18% of net
revenues, for the second quarter of 1995. The sequential decline in research and
development spending resulted primarily from the timing of certain expenditures.
Research  and  development  expenditures  for the first six  months of 1996 were
$11.7 million, or 16% of net revenues, compared with $9.3 million, or 20% of net
revenues,  for the first six  months of 1995.  While  research  and  development
expenditures for the first six months of 1996 increased by 25% compared with the
first six months of 1995,  research and development  expenditures  declined as a
percentage  of  net  revenues  due  to  the  expanded  scope  of  the  Company's
operations. The Company currently intends to boost the level of its research and
development  expenditures  over the next  several  quarters  to  accelerate  the
introduction of new products. Research and development expenditures may increase
as a percentage of net revenues for any or all of such quarters.

         The  Company's  research and  development  consists of circuit  design,
software development,  and process technology  activities.  The Company believes
that continued substantial investment in research and development is critical to
maintaining  a strong  technological  position in the industry  and,  therefore,
expects to continue increasing its research and development expenditures.  Since
the Company's  antifuse FPGAs are manufactured using a customized  process,  the
Company's  research and development  expenditures will probably always be higher
as a percentage of net revenues than that of its major competitors.

         Selling, General, and Administrative

         Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the second quarter of
1996 were $9.6 million,  or 26% of net revenues,  compared with $8.3 million, or
24% of net revenues,  for the first quarter of 1996 and $6.9 million,  or 26% of
net revenues,  for the second quarter of 1995.  The  sequential  increase in the

                                        8

                                     <PAGE>

rate of selling, general, and administrative spending resulted primarily from an
increased  level of sales and  marketing  activities in support of new products.
Selling,  general,  and administrative  expenditures for the first six months of
1996 were $17.9 million, or 25% of net revenues, compared with $12.3 million, or
27% of net  revenues,  for the first six  months  of 1995.  This  year-over-year
decline in the rate of selling,  general,  and administrative  spending resulted
primarily from economies of scale. The Company currently intends to continue its
heightened level of sales and marketing activity in support of new products over
the next several quarters. Selling, general, and administrative expenditures may
increase as a percentage of net revenues for any or all of such quarters.

         Tax Provision

         The  Company's  effective  tax rate for the three and six months  ended
June 30, 1996,  was 37.5%.  This rate is based on the estimated  annual tax rate
complying with Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for  Income  Taxes."  This rate  differs  from the  federal  statutory  rate due
primarily to state income taxes (net of federal  benefit) and the recognition of
certain  deferred tax assets subject to valuation  allowances as of December 31,
1995.

         For the six months ended June 30, 1995,  the Company  recorded a credit
for income taxes related to the  realization  of deferred tax assets  previously
subject to valuation allowances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         At the end of the first six months of 1996,  the Company's  cash,  cash
equivalents,  and short-term investments were $22.0 million, compared with $20.0
million at the  beginning of 1996.  The amount of cash,  cash  equivalents,  and
short-term  investments  increased  principally  because  of  cash  provided  by
operations, including net income.

         The Company  believes that existing cash, cash  equivalents,  and short
term investments, together with cash from operations, will be sufficient to meet
its cash  requirements  for 1996.  A portion of  available  cash may be used for
investment  in  or  acquisition  of  complementary   businesses,   products,  or
technologies.

         The Company  made a payment of  approximately  $3 million to  Chartered
Semiconductor Manufacturing Pte Ltd ("Chartered Semiconductor") in January 1996,
the final  installment  of an  approximately  $10 million  equity  investment in
Chartered  Semiconductor.  The  Company  currently  has  no  material  financial
obligations to its current wafer suppliers.  However,  wafer  manufacturers  are
increasingly  demanding  financial  support from customers in the form of equity
investments  and  advance  purchase  price  deposits,  which in some  cases  are
substantial.  Should the Company require additional capacity, it may be required
to incur significant expenditures to secure such capacity.

         The  Company  believes  that the  availability  of  adequate  financial
resources  is  a  substantial   competitive   factor.   To  take   advantage  of
opportunities as they arise, or to withstand adverse business  conditions should
they  occur,  it may  become  prudent  or  necessary  for the  Company  to raise
additional capital.  The Company intends to continue monitoring the availability
and cost of potential capital resources, including equity, debt, and off-balance
sheet financing  arrangements,  with a view toward raising additional capital on
terms  that are  acceptable  to the  Company.  No  assurance  can be given  that
additional capital will become available on acceptable terms.

Additional Quarterly Information

         The table above presents certain  unaudited  quarterly results for each
of the eight  quarters  in the period  ended June 30,  1996.  In the  opinion of
management,  all  necessary  adjustments  (consisting  only of normal  recurring
accruals)  have been included in the amounts  stated below to present fairly the
unaudited   quarterly   results  when  read  in  conjunction  with  the  audited
consolidated  financial  statements of the Company and notes thereto included in
the Company's  Annual  Report to  Shareholders  for the year ended  December 31,
1995. These quarterly  operating  results are not necessarily  indicative of the
results for any future period.

Factors Affecting Future Operating Results

         The  Company's  operating  results  are  subject  to  general  economic
conditions and a variety of risks  characteristic of the semiconductor  industry
(including booking and shipment  uncertainties,  wafer supply fluctuations,  and
price  erosion)  or  specific  to the  Company,  any of which  could  cause  the
Company's  operating  results  to differ  materially  from past  results.  For a
discussion of such risks,  see "Risk Factors" in Part I of the Company's  Annual
Report on Form 10-K for 1995, which is incorporated herein by this reference.
