              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)



NOTE 1            QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The condensed  consolidated  financial  statements for the three months
ended  March  31,  1996 and 1995  are  unaudited  but  include  all  adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
management,  necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results
of operations of the Company for interim periods.  The results of operations for
the three  months  ended March 31, 1996 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the
operating results to be expected for the full year. The information  included in
this report should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1995, and
other  information  included in the  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         On June 28, 1995,  the Company  entered  into an Agreement  and Plan of
Merger with KMOS and Orbit Acquisition, Inc. (Orbit Acquisition), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company,  providing for the merger of Orbit  Acquisition  with
and into  KMOS,  with KMOS  being the  surviving  corporation  in the merger and
becoming a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of the  Company.  In  connection  with the
merger,  the Company  issued  778,279 shares of its common stock in exchange for
all  of  the  issued  and  outstanding  KMOS  common  stock  and  converted  all
outstanding  options to purchase  KMOS  common  stock at the  exchange  ratio of
0.044473  shares of Orbit  common stock for each share of KMOS common stock into
options  to  purchase  221,721  shares  of Orbit  common  stock.  KMOS is in the
business of designing,  developing and marketing  high-performance  mixed-signal
(analog/digital)  application specific integrated circuits.  The merger has been
accounted  for as a pooling of  interests  and,  accordingly,  the  consolidated
financial  statements  for all periods prior to the merger have been restated to
reflect the combined operations of the two companies.  The table below shows the
composition of unaudited combined net revenues and net income for the pre-merger
period indicated.

                                                                    Three

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

General

         Orbit provides  semiconductor  design,  manufacturing  and  engineering
support services that allow system designers to manage  effectively  application
specific  integrated circuit ("ASIC")  development,  production,  scheduling and
inventory  control.  In 1991, the Company made a strategic decision to emphasize
its higher-margin manufacturing programs and to develop a new program to address
the need for more  cost-effective  development and production of gate arrays. In
late 1992, the Company introduced its ENCORE! program, which includes internally
developed  software that permits Orbit to convert the netlist  circuit design of
customer-designed   ASICs  into  an  Orbit  gate  array  at  low   non-recurring
engineering  charges. In June 1995, the Company further developed its gate array
program through its merger with KMOS  Semiconductor,  Inc.  ("KMOS"),  a fabless
gate array company that offers open-market  design services of  high-performance
mixed-signal  (analog/digital)  ASICs. Both the gate array programs  (comprising
the  ENCORE!  program  and the KMOS  mixed-signal  gate array  program)  and the
Company's high margin contract  manufacturing  program,  which includes the High
Reliability  Contract  Manufacturing  program,  have generally achieved a higher
gross margin percentage than the Company's other manufacturing programs.

         As  discussed  in the  notes to the  condensed  consolidated  financial
statements,  the Company has  accounted for its merger with KMOS as a pooling of
interests  and,  accordingly,  all  financial  information  has been restated to
reflect the combined operations of the two companies.

         Revenues - Orbit derives  revenues from the sale of integrated  circuit
products  manufactured  pursuant  to  customer  orders and  specifications.  The
Company  reported  revenues  for the  first  quarter  of 1996 of $14.5  million,
representing  a decrease of 3% from $14.9 million for the first quarter of 1995.
Of this  decrease in revenues,  $4.3 million was  attributable  to the Company's
high margin contract  manufacturing program, which includes the High Reliability
Contract  Manufacturing  program,  and $1.6 million was  attributable to the low
margin foundry program,  partially offset by an increase of $3.9 million in gate
array revenues,  which includes the ENCORE!  program and the  mixed-signal  gate
array program. The decrease in revenues attributable to the high margin contract
manufacturing  program  was  primarily  as a  result  of order  push-outs  and a
lower-than-expected  rate of order  bookings  for product  shipments  within the
quarter.  The  increase  in  revenues  attributable  to the gate array  program,
together with the decrease in revenues  attributable  to the low margin  foundry
program  reflects  the  Company's   strategic   emphasis  on  its  higher-margin
manufacturing programs, including the gate array program.

         Gross margin - The following  table sets forth the Company's  revenues,
gross  margin  and  gross  margin  as  a  percentage  of  revenues  (dollars  in

         The Company's gross margin percentage was 36.1% in the first quarter of
1996,  down from 43.6% in the first quarter of 1995. This decrease was primarily
due to the decrease in revenues and an increase in fixed  manufacturing costs in
connection  with  the  Company's  expansion  of its  fabrication  facilities  in
California.

         Research and Development  Expenses - Research and development  expenses
consist  primarily of personnel costs,  equipment and its related  depreciation,
and related support costs  associated with the development of new  semiconductor
manufacturing  processes  and  design  technology.  The  Company  increased  its
spending  on  research  and  development  in the first  quarter  of 1996.  These
expenses  in the first  quarter  of 1996  exceeded  the first  quarter of 1995's
expenses by 35%. This increase reflects the Company's continuing  development of
the gate array program,  which includes the ENCORE! program and the mixed-signal
gate array program, as well as the development of improved process  technologies
and development work on a 0.8 micron process technology.

         The Company  believes that the continued  development of its technology
is essential to its future  success and is committed to continue its  investment
in research and  development.  The Company expects that research and development
spending will increase in future periods as a consequence of product and process
development activities currently underway.

         Selling,  General and  Administrative  Expenses - Selling,  general and
administrative expenses have increased as a percentage of revenues to 20% in the
first quarter of 1996 from 17% in the first  quarter of 1995 and have  increased
in absolute  dollars  approximately  12% to $2.9 million in the first quarter of
1996 from $2.5 million in the first  quarter of 1995.  This dollar  increase was
primarily  attributable  to  compensation  increases of $0.5  million  primarily
associated  with  the  hiring  of key  sales,  marketing  and  customer  service
personnel.,  partially  offset by a  decrease  of $0.3  million  in  advertising
expenses.

         Interest   Income   (Expense)  and  Other,   Net  -  Orbit's   interest
income (expense)  and other includes  interest  earned on cash  equivalents  and
short-term  investments,  minority interest in losses incurred in its subsidiary
and realized gains on the sale of investments. The Company's net interest income
(expense) and other was $(0.1)  million in the first quarter of 1996 as compared
with $0.1  million in the first  quarter  of 1995.  This  decrease  is due to an
increase in interest  expense  associated  with an increase in  long-term  lease
obligations  in connection  with  equipment  additions  related to the Company's
development  of a 0.8 micron process  capability and a 6-inch wafer  fabrication
facility in  California.  The Company  expects  that its  interest  expense will
increase  in the  future as the  Company  financed  $9.6  million  of  equipment
additions   during  1995  with   capital   leases  and   anticipates   acquiring
approximately  $15 million of equipment in 1996 under capital  lease  financing,
subject to availability.

         Provision for income taxes - The  Company's  provision for income taxes
was $0.2  million  and $1.0  million  for the  first  quarter  of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Orbit's  effective tax rate was 30% for the first quarter of 1996
as compared to 37% in the first quarter of 1995. These rates differ from federal
statutory  rates  primarily due to state income taxes,  partially  offset by the
utilization of research and development (in 1995) and  manufacturing  investment
tax  credits,  and with the tax  benefits  associated  with the  formation  of a
foreign sales  corporation.  The decrease in the effective tax rate in 1996 from
1995  is  primarily  due  to  the   proportionally   greater   impact  of  state
manufacturing investment tax credits.

         Extraordinary  gain - An  extraordinary  gain from early  retirement of
debt of $0.2  million was recorded in the first  quarter of 1996,  net of income
taxes of $0.1 million.

         Factors affecting future results - The Company's quarterly results have
in the past and may in the  future  vary due to a number of  factors,  including
timing, cancellation or delay of customer orders; gains or losses of significant
customers;  changes in revenues and product mix;  variations in selling  prices;
variations in manufacturing  yields; the timing and level of process development
costs;  change  in  inventory  levels;  change  in  manufacturing  capacity  and
variations  in the  utilization  of this  capacity;  availability  and change in
prices of raw  materials  incorporated  into the Company's  products;  timing of
announcement  and  introduction  of new products and services by the Company and
its competitors; market acceptance of the Company's and its customers' products;
shifts  in  demand  for the  Company's  processes,  services,  technologies  and
products;  the successful  integration of KMOS's  operations  with Orbit's,  and
other  competitive  factors.  Any  unfavorable  change in the foregoing or other
factors  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  business,
financial  condition  and results of  operations.  In  addition,  the  Company's
inability to complete  successfully  its expansion  plans in Israel,  the United
States  or  elsewhere,  or to do so in a timely  manner  could  have a  material
adverse  effect on the Company's  business,  financial  condition and results of
operations.  The Company also operates its own wafer fabrication facility, which
entails a high level of fixed costs and requires  adequate  volume of production
and sales to be profitable. During periods of decreased demand, these high fixed
costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,  financial
condition and results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Company  has  historically  financed  its  operations  and met its
capital requirements from a combination of cash generated from operations,  bank
borrowings, capital lease financing and the sale of equity securities.

         Principal  sources of  liquidity  at March 31, 1996  consisted  of $9.7
million in cash and cash  equivalents  and $5.5 million  available  under a bank
line of credit. The bank line of credit contains certain financial covenants and

                                       10
<PAGE>

restrictions  including  maintaining  certain  financial ratios. As of March 31,
1996, the Company was in compliance with such covenants and restrictions.

         The Company's  operating  activities  provided net cash of $1.5 million
and $1.8  million  in the  first  quarter  of 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The
Company's  investing  activities  used $1.3 million and provided $2.8 million in
the first  quarter  of 1996 and  1995,  respectively.  Cash  used for  investing
activities consisted primarily of the acquisition of capital equipment. Net cash
used in  financing  activities  was $1.5  million and $1.2  million in the first
quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively.

         The Company  believes  that its  banking  facilities,  equipment  lease
lines,  cash and cash  equivalents and  anticipated  cash provided by operations
will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash  requirements  for the next twelve
months.  However, the Company will require additional capital at such time as it
decides  to  commence  significant  construction  and  equipping  activities  in
connection with its proposed Israeli manufacturing facility. No assurance can be
given that additional financing will be available or, if available, that it will
be available on acceptable terms.
