                                                   INTRODUCTION

         EFTC Corporation, (the "Company") hereby amends its Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 1997,  by deleting its response to
Part I, Item 2, contained in its original filing and replacing such section with
the following:

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION THREE MONTHS  ENDED JUNE 30, 1997


         This information set forth below contains "forward looking  statements"
within the  meaning  of the  federal  securities  laws and other  statements  of
expectations,  beliefs,  plans, and similar expressions  concerning matters that
are  not  historical   facts.   These   statements  are  subject  to  risks  and
uncertainties  that could cause actual results to differ  materially  from those
expressed in the statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net  sales.  Net sales are net of  discounts  and are  recognized  upon
shipment  to  a  customer.  The  Company's  net  sales  increased  by  42.7%  to
$22,745,473 for the second quarter of fiscal 1997, from  $15,941,411  during the
same period in fiscal 1996.  The  increase in net sales is due  primarily to the
inclusion of the operations from Current Electronics,  Inc. (CE Company's) which
was acquired on February 24, 1997.

         The Company's net sales  increased by 18.9% to  $36,782,349  during the
six months of fiscal  1997,  from  $30,944,370  during the same period of fiscal
1996.  The increase in net sales is due primarily to the  acquisition of Current
Electronics as noted above.

         Gross  profit.  Gross  profit  equals net sales less cost of goods sold
(such as salaries, leasing costs, and depreciation charges related to production
operations); and non-direct,  variable manufacturing costs (such as supplies and
employee benefits).  In the second quarter of fiscal 1997 gross profit increased
291.0% to $2,989,002 compared to $764,516 for the same period in 1996. The gross
profit margin for the second  quarter of fiscal 1997 was 13.1%  compared to 4.8%
for the same period of fiscal 1996. The primary reason for the increase in gross
profit percentage is related to the operations of the CE Company's, which have a
higher gross profit percentage.  Another reason for the increase in gross profit
is the adoption of the  Asynchronous  Process  Manufacturing  (APM) in the later
part of 1996 in the Rocky Mountain facility. APM standardizes processes and sets
them up in a parallel pattern on the  manufacturing  floor.  Product can flow to
any process,  i.e., any board to any line. This unique arrangement combined with
powerful  proprietary  information  technologies  allows for the  manufacture of
high-mix product in a high speed mode. The key to making APM work is to increase
throughput by decreasing setup time,  standardizing  work centers and processing
smaller lot sizes.  EFTC has done this by  designating  teams to set up off-line
feeders and standardizing loading methods regardless of


<PAGE>



product complexity.  APM has allowed EFTC to increase  productivity by producing
product with less people which  ultimately  reduces  costs and  increases  gross
profit.

         In the first six months of 1997  gross  profit  increased  by 229.6% to
$4,496,567  compared to $1,364,338  for the first six months of fiscal 1996. The
gross profit  margin for the first six months of fiscal 1997 was 12.2%  compared
to 4.4% for the first six months of 1996.  The reasons for these  increases  are
explained above.

         Selling,  General and  Administrative  Expenses.  Selling,  general and
administrative  expenses (SGA expense)  consist  primarily of  non-manufacturing
salaries,  sales commissions,  and other general expenses. SGA expense increased
by 122.9% to $1,883,680 in the second quarter of 1997,  compared with $844,920 a
year earlier.  As a percentage of net sales SGA expenses  increased from 5.3% of
net sales in the second  quarter  of fiscal  1996 to 8.3% of net sales in fiscal
1997. The primary reason for the increase in SGA expense is the inclusion of the
CE Companies SGA expenses in 1997 of  approximately  $867,000 whereas their were
none in 1996.

         Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased  by 80.3% to
$2,986,655  for the six months of fiscal 1997  compared  with  $1,656,540 a year
earlier.  As a percentage  of net sales,  SGA increased to 8.1% in the first six
months of 1997 from 5.4% in the same  period of fiscal  1996.  The  increase  is
primarily  due to the  inclusion of the CE  Companies  SGA expenses in 1997 from
February 24 to June 30 in the amount of approximately $1,132,000.

         Operating  income.  Operating  income for the second  quarter of fiscal
1997  increased  1391.6% to  $1,038,529  from a loss of  $80,404  for the second
quarter of fiscal 1996.  Operating income as a percentage of net sales increased
to 4.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from (0.5%) in the same period last
year. The increase in operating income is attributable to increased efficiencies
associated with APM and the acquisition of the CE Companies as explained above.

         Operating  income  for the first six  months of fiscal  1997  increased
586.1% to $1,420,311  from a loss of $292,202 for the first six months of fiscal
1996.  Operating  income as a percentage  of net sales  increased to 3.9% in the
first six months of fiscal 1997 from  (0.9%) in the same  period last year.  The
increase  in  operating   income  is  attributable  to  increased   efficiencies
associated with APM and the acquisition of the CE Companies as explained above.

         Interest  expense.  Interest expense for the second quarter of 1997 was
$351,788  compared to $147,087 for the same period in fiscal 1996.  The increase
in interest is primarily the result of the acquisition  debt associated with the
merger and acquisition of the CE Companies and increased  operating debt used to
finance both  inventories  and  receivables for EFTC and the CE Companies in the
second quarter of 1997.

         Interest expense for the first six months of 1997 was $537,143 compared
to $242,613  for the same  period in fiscal  1996.  The  increase in interest is
primarily  the result of the  acquisition  debt  associated  with the merger and
acquisition of the CE Companies and increased operating


<PAGE>



debt  used to  finance  both  inventories  and  receivables  for EFTC and the CE
Companies in the first six months of fiscal 1997.

         Income tax expense.  The estimate of the Company's effective income tax
rate for the  second  quarter  of  fiscal  1997 and 1996  was  37.5%  and  36.7%
respectively.  This percentage fluctuates substantially because relatively small
dollar  amounts tend to move the rate  significantly  as estimates  change.  The
Company  expects that the rate will  normalize in future  quarters and be around
the 37% range.

         The  effective  income tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 1997
was 36.8% compared to 38.9% from the same period a year earlier.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During the first six months of fiscal 1997 cash used in operations  was
$1,275,419  compared to cash used in operations of $3,611,555 in the same period
last year. Increased profitability and an increase in working capital components
are the primary  reasons for the decrease in the cash used in operations in 1997
when compared to 1996.

         As of June 30, 1997,  working capital totaled  $10,717,844  compared to
$8,508,489  at December 31, 1996.  The increase is  attributable  to the working
capital acquired related to the acquisition of the CE Companies that occurred on
February 24, 1997.

         Accounts receivable  decreased 1.8% to $7,032,934 at June 30, 1997 from
$7,164,174 at June 30, 1996. A comparison of receivable  turns (i.e.  annualized
sales divided by current accounts receivable) for the first six months of fiscal
1997  and  the  first  six  months  of  fiscal  1996  is  10.5  and  8.7  turns,
respectively.  The 1997 receivable  turn is distorted  because the sales for the
first six months  includes  only four  months and four days of the CE  Companies
revenues.  Based on  historical  annual  revenues of the CE  Companies  and EFTC
combined,  the receivable turns for the first six months of fiscal 1997 would be
12.7 times.

         Inventories  increased  65.1%  to  $17,859,385  at June 30,  1997  from
$10,816,201 at June 30, 1996. A comparison of inventory  turns (i.e.  annualized
cost of sales divided by current  inventory)  for the first six months of fiscal
1997 and 1996 shows a decrease to 3.6 from 5.5, respectively. The 1997 inventory
turn is distorted  because the cost of sales for the first quarter includes only
one month and four days of the CE Companies  costs.  Based on historical  annual
cost of sales of the CE Companies and EFTC combined, the inventory turns for the
first six months of fiscal 1997 would be 4.5 times.

         The Company used cash to purchase capital equipment totaling $1,292,053
in the first six months of 1997,  compared  with  $1,061,879  in the same period
last year. The Company also used cash to purchase the CE Companies, as explained
earlier in the amount of $7,398,728.  Proceeds from debt of $6,700,000 were used
to help fund the purchase of the CE Companies.



<PAGE>



         On February 24, 1997,  the Company  renegotiated  its revolving line of
credit,  negotiated a 90 day bridge loan and incurred additional  equipment debt
in  conjunction  with  the  merger  and  acquisition  of the CE  Companies.  The
revolving line of credit was increased to $15,000,000 and has a maturity date of
June 5,1998.  This note was  subsequently  extended while new financing is being
put into place ( see below).  Interest on this  credit  facility  accrues at the
Bank One Prime rate plus .25% (8.75% on June 30, 1997).  The credit  facility is
collateralized  by substantially  all of the Company's  assets,  other than real
estate.  The loan agreement from this facility  contains  restrictive  covenants
relating  to capital  expenditures,  borrowings  and payment of  dividends,  and
certain   financial    statement   ratios.    The   credit   facility   may   be
withdrawn/cancelled at the banks option under certain conditions such as default
or in the event the Company  experiences a material negative change in financial
condition.  The short term bridge facility was for $4,900,000 and has a maturity
date of May  24,  1997.  This  note  was  extended  as new  financing  is  being
negotiated  (see below).  The  interest  rate accrues at the Bank One Prime rate
plus .25% (8.75% on June 30, 1997). The proceeds from this loan were used to pay
the cash portion of the  consideration  paid in the merger and acquisition noted
above.  The Company has engaged in discussions for issuance of convertible  debt
or  preferred  stock,  the  proceeds  of which would be used to repay the bridge
facility.  The bridge  facility was  conditioned  on the Company's  receipt of a
third party  commitment  for the purchase of the  convertible  debt or preferred
stock which has been  obtained.  The Company also issued a $1,800,000  five year
note with a maturity date of April 5, 2002.  The interest rate will be 8.95% per
annum.  The Company will pay this loan in 60 regular monthly payments of $36,983
and one final  payment of $41,983.  These  payments  include both  principal and
interest.  The proceeds of this loan were used to pay off equipment  debt of the
CE Companies as per the merger agreement.

         In connection  with the Merger and  Acquisition  and the Asset purchase
(as  explained  in footnote 2), the Company has  negotiated a commitment  letter
with Bank One comprised of a $30 million  revolving line of credit,  maturing on
September  30, 2000 and a $15 million term loan  maturing on September 30, 2002.
The  proceeds  of the Bank One Loan may be used for (i)  funding  the Merger and
Acquisition;  (ii) funding the Asset  Purchase;  (iii) funding the Real Property
Purchase;  (iv)  repayment  of the  existing  Bank One line of credit and bridge
facility;  and (v)  working  capital  requirements.  The Bank One Loan will bear
interest  at a rate  based on either  the Bank One prime  rate or the LIBOR plus
applicable  margins  ranging form 3.25% to 0.50% for the term facility and 2.75%
to 0.00% for the revolving  facility.  Borrowings on the revolving  facility are
subject to limitation based on the value of the available  collateral.  The Bank
One  Loan  is  collateralized  by  substantially  all of the  Company's  assets,
including  real  estate,  whether now owned or  hereinafter  acquired.  The loan
agreement  for the Bank One Loan is  expected to contain  restrictive  covenants
relating  to  capital  expenditures,  limitations  of  investments,  borrowings,
payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions.  In addition, the loan agreement
is expected to contain financial covenants relating to the following ratios: (i)
maximum  senior debt to EBIDTA to interest;  (ii) maximum  total debt to EBIDTA;
(iii) minimum fixed charge coverage; (iv) minimum EBIDTA to interest (v) minimum
tangible net worth  requirement  with  periodic  step-up;  (vi)  maximum  annual
capital expenditures; and (vii) excess cash flow recapture. The Bank One Loan is
subject to the  negotiation of definitive  loan  documents,  and there can be no
assurance  that the  Company  will be able to obtain  the Bank One Loan on terms
satisfactory to the Company.


<PAGE>



         In addition to the Bank One Loan, the Company has agreed upon the terms
for the issuance of $15 million in Subordinated  Notes,  with a maturity date of
June 24, 2002 and bearing a fixed coupon of LIBOR plus 2.00%.  The  Subordinated
Notes are  amortized  yearly with  payments of $50,000 and one final  payment of
$14,800,000  and may be  prepaid  in  whole  or in part at any  time,  with  any
prepayment  subordinated  to the Bank One Loan. The  Subordinated  Notes will be
accompanied by warrants for 500,000  shares of the Company's  Common Stock at an
exercise price of $8.00. The holder of the Subordinated Notes will be Richard L.
Monfort, a director of the Company.

         The Company has committed to construct a new manufacturing  facility in
Oregon to replace  the  present  location  in Oregon at an  approximate  cost of
$5,000,000.  The Company has agreed upon the terms for the financing of this new
facility and has started construction.

         New accounting  standard.  In February  1997, the Financial  Accounting
Standards  Board issued  Statement  No. 128,  "Earnings  Per Share" ("SFAS 128")
which  revised  the  calculation  and  presentation   provisions  of  Accounting
Principles Board Opinion 15 and related  interpretations.  SFAS 128 is effective
for  the  Company's  fiscal  year  ending  December  31,  1997  and  retroactive
application is required.  The Company believes the adoption of SFAS 128 will not
have a material efect on its reported income per share.

         The Company may require additional capital to finance  enhancements to,
or expansions  of, its  manufacturing  capacity in accordance  with its business
strategy. Management believes that the need for working capital will continue to
grow at a rate generally consistent with the growth of the Company's operations.
Although no  assurance  can be given that  financing  will be available on terms
acceptable to the Company,  the Company may seek additional  funds, from time to
time,  through public or private debt or equity  offerings,  bank borrowing,  or
leasing arrangements.

QUARTERLY RESULTS

         Although  management  does not believe that the  Company's  business is
affected by seasonal  factors,  the  Company's  sales and earnings may vary from
quarter to quarter,  depending  primarily upon the timing of customer orders and
product mix.  Therefore,  the  Company's  operating  results for any  particular
quarter may not be indicative of the results for any future quarter of the year.
