                       NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         (In thousands except share amounts)
                                     (Unaudited)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
    generally accepted accounting principles.  However, certain information or
    footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
    accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
    condensed, or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of management, the
    statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and
    recurring nature) for the fair presentation of the results of the interim
    periods presented.  These financial statements should be read in
    conjunction with the TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. ("Company") audited
    consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995, as
    included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

    The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest December 31.  For
    convenience, the Company has indicated in this quarterly report on Form
    10-Q that its fiscal year ended on December 31.  In addition, the Company's
    quarters end on the Saturday nearest the end of the calendar quarter.  For
    convenience, the Company has indicated that its second quarter ended on
    June 30.

2.  NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

    Net income (loss) per common and common equivalent share is computed using
    the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares
    assumed to be outstanding during the period.  Common equivalent shares
    consist of options and warrants to purchase common stock.

3.  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

    The Company charges all research and development costs associated with the
    development of new products to expense when incurred.  Engineering and
    design costs related to revenues on non-recurring engineering services
    billed to customers are classified as research, development and engineering
    expense.  Additionally, certain related contract engineering costs are also
    included in research, development and engineering expense.

4.  INCOME TAXES

    The provision for income taxes has been recorded based on the current
    estimate of the Company's annual effective tax rate.  For periods of
    income, this rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily because
    of the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

</TABLE>

TOTAL REVENUES

    The Company derives revenues from the sale of standard and customer-
specific products and services.  The Company's revenues also include non-
recurring engineering (NRE) revenues relating to customer-specific products.
Although revenues from standard products are separately identifiable by
reference to the Company's standard product catalogue, it is not practical to
differentiate between

                                          8


<PAGE>

customer-specific product revenue and NRE revenue because (i) the Company's
contracts generally state a total contract price without differentiating between
engineering and production activity, (ii) it is difficult to determine when
engineering activity has transitioned to production activity and (iii) it is
difficult to determine whether certain manufacturing services should be
classified as engineering activity or customer-specific products.

    Total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 increased
35.5% and 37.1% to $15.1 million and $28.2 million, respectively, over the
comparable three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995.  The increase in
revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 reflected an
overall increase in the volume of product sales to existing and new customers,
primarily from product sales in the wireless communications, telecommunications
and computing markets.

COST OF GOODS SOLD

    Cost of goods sold includes all direct material, labor and overhead
expenses and certain production costs related to NRE revenues.  In general, the
Company believes that gross profit generated from the sale of customer-specific
products and from NRE revenues is typically higher than gross profit generated
from the sale of standard products.  The factors affecting product mix include
the relative demand in the markets served by customer-specific and standard
products, as well as the number of NRE projects which result in volume
requirements for customer-specific products.

    Cost of goods sold as a percentage of the total revenues for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 increased to 55.4% from 51.9% for the comparable
three month period ended June 30, 1995. For the six months ended June 30, 1996
the cost of goods sold as a percentage of the total revenues increased to 57.7%
from 51.5% for the comparable six month period ended June 30, 1995.  The
increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of total revenues, from the three
and six months comparable periods ended June 30, 1995, was primarily
attributable to lower than expected production yields and a higher volume of
standard products which typically have a lower gross margin than
customer-specific products. The cost of goods sold as a percentage of the total
revenues in the second quarter was down from 60.4% in the first quarter to 55.4%
in the second quarter.

    The Company has in the past experienced lower than expected production
yields which have delayed shipments of a given product and adversely affected
gross margins.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
maintain acceptable production yields in the future and, to the extent that it
does not achieve acceptable production yields, its operating results would be
materially adversely affected.  In addition, the Company's operation of its own
wafer fabrication facility entails a high degree of fixed costs and requires an
adequate volume of production and sales to be profitable. During periods of
decreased demand, high fixed wafer fabrication costs would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING

    Research, development and engineering expenses include the costs incurred
in the design of products associated with NRE revenues, as well as ongoing
product development and research and development expenses.  The Company's
research, development and engineering expenses for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1996 increased 24.8% and 13.2% to $2.7 million and $5.2 million,
respectively, from the comparable three and six month periods ended June 30,
1995. Research, development and engineering expenses as a percentage of total
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1995 decreased to 17.6% from 19.1%
for the comparable three month period ended June 30, 1995;

                                          9


<PAGE>

for the six months ended June 30, 1995, research, development and engineering
expenses as a percentage of total revenues decreased to 18.3% from 22.1% for the
comparable six month period ended June 30, 1995. The increase in research,
development and engineering expenses in absolute dollar level was primarily due
to increased product development activities and NRE expenses. The decrease in
research, development and engineering expenses as a percentage of total revenues
resulted from revenue growth that outpaced the growth of research, development
and engineering expenses. The Company is committed to substantial investments in
research, development, and engineering and expects such expenses shall increase
in absolute dollar amount in the future.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

    Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1996 increased 26.2% and 21.6% to approximately $2.8 million and
$5.2 million, respectively, from the comparable three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1995.  Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1996 decreased to
18.6% from 20.0% for the comparable three month period ended June 30, 1995;  for
the six months ended June 30, 1996, selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percentage of revenue decreased to 18.5% from 20.8% for the comparable six
month period ended June 30, 1995.  The increase in absolute dollar level of
selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased
sales commissions in connection with the increase in total revenues and
increased personnel expenses.  The decrease in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues resulted from revenue
growth that outpaced the growth of selling, general and administrative expenses.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET

    Other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996 increased to an approximate net other income of $720,000 and $1,375,000,
respectively, as compared to net other income of $37,000 and $112,000 for the
comparable three and six month periods ended June 30, 1995. This improvement
resulted from interest income earned on higher cash, cash equivalents and
investment balances due primarily to the net proceeds of the follow-on stock
offering in September, 1995.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

    The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was 6.0%,
which is less than the federal and state statutory rate of approximately 40% due
to the use of net operating loss carryforwards.  Income tax expense for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1996 increased to approximately $119,000 and
$167,000, respectively, compared to $31,000 and $39,000 for the comparable three
and six month periods ended June 30, 1995.  This increase in income tax expenses
was attributable to higher profits partially offset by the use of net operating
losses.

VARIABILITY OF OPERATING RESULTS AND CYCLICALITY OF SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY

    The Company's quarterly and annual results may vary significantly in the
future due to a number of factors including timing, cancellation or delay of
customer orders; market acceptance of the Company's and its customers' products;
variations in manufacturing yields; timing of announcement and introduction of
new products by the Company and its competitors; changes in revenues and product
mix; competitive factors; changes in manufacturing capacity and variations in
the utilization of this capacity; variations in average selling prices;
variations in operating expenses; the long sales cycles associated with the
Company's customer-specific products; the timing and level of product and
process development costs;

                                          10

cyclicality of the semiconductor industry; the timing and level of NRE revenues
and expenses relating to customer-specific products; and changes in inventory
levels.  Any unfavorable changes in these or other factors could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operating results.

    A significant portion of the Company's revenues in each fiscal period has
historically been concentrated among a limited number of customers.  In recent
periods, sales to the Company's major customers as a percentage of total
revenues have fluctuated.  For the three months ended June 30, 1996, Cirrus
Logic and Northern Telecom  accounted for 24.2% and 12.5% respectively, of total
revenues. The Company's revenues to a certain extent depend upon its customer's
success introducing and marketing new products.  Certain of these products are
consumer products and there is no guarantee purchases by consumers will meet
TriQuint customers' expectations.  The Company does not have long-term purchase
agreements with any of its customers.  Customers generally purchase the
Company's products pursuant to cancelable short-term purchase orders.  The
Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations have been
materially adversely affected in the past by the failure of anticipated orders
to materialize and by deferrals or cancellations of orders.

    The semiconductor industry has historically been characterized by wide
fluctuations in product supply and demand. From time to time, the industry has
also experienced significant downturns, often in connection with, or in
anticipation of, declines in general economic conditions.  These downturns have
been characterized by diminished product demand, production overcapacity and
subsequent accelerated erosion of average selling prices, and, in some cases,
have lasted for extended periods of time. The Company's business has in the past
been and could in the future be materially adversely affected by such
industry-wide fluctuations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company completed a follow on public offering in September 1995 raising
approximately $48.1 million, net of offering expenses.  In December 1993 and
January 1994, the Company completed its initial public offering raising
approximately $16.7 million, net of offering expenses.  In addition, the Company
has funded its operations to date through sales of equity, bank borrowing,
capital equipment leases and cash flow from operations. As of June 30, 1996, the
Company had working capital of approximately $56.0 million, including $51.4
million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments.  The Company has a $10.0
million unsecured revolving line of credit with a financial institution.
Restrictive covenants included in the line of credit require the Company to
maintain (i) a total liability to tangible net worth ratio of not more than 0.75
to 1.00, (ii) a current ratio of not less than 1.75 to 1.00, (iii) minimum
tangible net worth greater than $50.0 million and (iv) cash and investments
greater than $45.0 million. As of June 30, 1996 the Company was in compliance
with  the covenants contained in this line of credit.

    The Company's current wafer fabrication facility lease expires in January
1998. During the first six months of 1996, the Company began arranging
construction and exploring financing options to construct a new wafer
fabrication and office complex at Dawson Creek, in Hillsboro, Oregon with the
intent of consolidating all operations into one facility before the current
wafer fabrication facility lease expires. In May 1996 the Company obtained
financing in the form of a five year operating lease. The Company entered into
several agreements each dated May 17, 1996 in connection with the operating
lease. Pursuant to that certain Participation Agreement among the Company,
Wolverine Leasing Corp. ("Wolverine"), Matisse Holding Company ("Matisse") and
United States National Bank ("Bank"), Wolverine shall lease certain real
property owned by Wolverine to the Company under an operating lease with an
option by the Company to purchase such property. In addition the Participation
Agreement provides that Wolverine will make advances to the Company to cover the
costs of certain improvements to such real property and to pay certain related
financing costs, transaction costs, and other costs and expenses; Wolverine will
use the

                                          11


<PAGE>

proceeds of loans from the Bank and Matisse, as well as certain equity funds
provided by Matisse, in order to provide the Company with such advances and such
other costs and expenses. The Bank loans are collateralized by pledged
investments from the Company, classified as restricted investments on the
Company's balance sheet ($11.7 million as of June 30, 1996). Restrictive
covenants included in the Participation Agreement between the Company and the
Bank require the Company to maintain (i) a total liability to tangible net worth
ratio of not more than 0.75 to 1.00, (ii) minimum tangible net worth greater
than $50.0 million and (iii) cash and liquid investments, including restricted
investments, greater than $45.0 million. As of June 30, 1996 the Company was in
compliance with  the covenants contained in the Participation Agreement.

The following table presents a summary of the Company's cash flows (IN
THOUSANDS):
                                                 SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,

                                                  ----              ----

                                                --------           ------

    The cash provided by operating activities for the six month period ended
June 30, 1996, $1.5 million, related to cash generated from profitable
operations partially offset by increased accounts receivable, inventories and
prepaid expenses.

    The cash used by investing activities for the six month period ended June
30, 1996, $15.8 million, related to the purchase of restricted investments
pledged to collateralize the operating lease on the Dawson Creek facility, the
net purchase of investments and the cash purchase of approximately $0.6 million
of capital equipment.

    The cash used by financing activities for the six month period ended June
30, 1996, $0.8 million, related primarily to the payment of principal under
capital leases partially offset by the issuance of common stock upon option
exercises.

    Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were
approximately $0.6 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company
established approximately $3.7 million in new capital leases.  Since 1991, the
Company has financed approximately $17.6 million of machinery and equipment
through capital lease obligations. The Company believes these capital
expenditures were relatively low compared to other companies in the
semiconductor industry because of the relatively high capital investments made
prior  to 1991.  The Company anticipates that its capital equipment needs,
including manufacturing and test equipment and computer hardware and software,
will require additional expenditures of approximately $9.0 million over the next
twelve months.

    The Company believes that its current cash and investment balances,
together with cash anticipated to be generated from operations, additional
equipment leases and the operating lease with Wolverine, will satisfy the
Company's projected working capital and capital expenditure requirements through
the end of 1997.  However, the Company may be required to finance any additional
requirements through additional equity, debt financings, or credit facilities.
There can be no assurance that such additional financings or credit facilities
will be available, or if available, that they will be on satisfactory terms.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1:  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

    On June 9, 1994 the Company issued a press release indicating softness in
the Company's revenues which would adversely affect the Company's financial
results.  The cause for the reduction in revenues was due somewhat to a general
softness in orders in the telecommunications market;  however, it was primarily
the result of a decision by the Company's largest customer to delay shipment of
certain products.  As a result of this announcement, the Company's stock price
dropped 48% on June 10, 1994.  On July 12, 1994, a shareholder class action
lawsuit was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for
the Northern District of California. On June 21, 1996, the court granted the
Company's motion to transfer the litigation to the District of Oregon. The suit
alleges that the Company, its underwriters, and certain of its officers,
directors and investors, intentionally misled the investing public regarding the
financial prospects of the Company.  Since the Company and its management have
striven to keep investors current on the Company's progress at all times, the
Company strongly denies any claims of wrongdoing and will defend this lawsuit
vigorously.

ITEM 4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

    On May 29, 1996, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders for
which it solicited votes by proxy.  The following is a brief description of each
matter voted upon at the meeting and a statement of the number of votes cast
for, against or withheld and the number of abstentions with respect to each
