              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998

(1)  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
     of Paravant Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in
     accordance with the instructions and requirements of Form 10-QSB and
     Regulation S-B and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes
     necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of
     operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
     principles. In the opinion of management, such financial statements reflect
     all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations
     and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the
     interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
     expected for the full fiscal years.

         These condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should
     be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for
     the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999 included in the Company's Annual
     Report on Form 10-KSB as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
     The accounting principles used in preparing these condensed consolidated
     financial statements are the same as those described in such statements, or
     as discussed below.

(b)  BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Basic earnings per share for the three months ended December 31, 1999
     and 1998 have been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for the
     three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 have been computed by
     dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and
     dilutive potential common shares outstanding.

         A reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding
     used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as
     follows:

                         PARAVANT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(CONTINUED)

         Options and warrants to purchase 970,100 and 6,774,285 shares of common
     stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for
     the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, because
     their exercise prices exceeded the average market price of common shares
     for the period.

 (2) ACQUISITION

         On October 8, 1998 the Company consummated a purchase business
     combination (the "Acquisition"), effective October 1, 1998, of all of the
     outstanding common stock of Engineering Development Laboratories,
     Incorporated, Inc. ("EDL") and substantially all of the assets of Signal
     Technology Laboratories, Inc. ("STL"), EDL's majority-owned subsidiary.
     Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement the Company paid an aggregate
     consideration consisting of (i) $8.7 million in cash, (ii) three-year $4.8
     million notes bearing interest at the rate of 8% and (iii) 3,950,000 shares
     of Common Stock. In connection with the Acquisition a contingent cash
     earn-out will be payable by the Company under specified circumstances over
     a period of up to five years based on future profits of the acquired
     operation. The earn-out will be recorded as additional consideration,
     increasing the amount of goodwill, which will be amortized over the
     remaining life of the asset. The cash portion of the consideration paid by
     the Company in connection with the Acquisition was financed using floating
     rate financing obtained through National City Bank in Dayton, Ohio (the
     "Bank") in an amount up to $14,000,000 under a revolving line of credit
     with a maturity date of December 31, 2001, convertible thereafter to five
     year term debt.

 (3) CONTRACTS

         Contracts in progress and advance billings on such contracts consist of
     the following as of December 31, 1999:

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 VS. DECEMBER 31, 1998

     Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 were $7,705,029, a
decrease of $777,264 or 9% from the quarter ended December 31, 1998 revenues of
$8,482,293. This decrease in revenues is primarily due to a decrease of
approximately 30% in signal intelligence products revenue which was partially
offset by an increase of approximately 24% in command, control and
communications ("C3") products revenue in this quarter. Signal intelligence
revenues declined due to a decrease in orders from a single, large customer.
The Company expects these trends to continue through the balance of the fiscal
year.

     Gross profit was $4,013,465 for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 or 52%
of revenues, compared to $4,374,424 or 52% of revenues in the quarter ended
December 31, 1998, a total decrease of $360,959 or 8%. This decrease in gross
profitability is a direct result of the decreased revenues discussed above.

     Sales and marketing expenses of $504,228 in the quarter ended December 31,
1999 decreased by $6,387 or 1% from the quarter ended December 31, 1998 expenses
of $510,615. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses were
approximately 6% in both quarters ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. Sales and
marketing expense were substantially unchanged between the periods.

     Research, development and engineering expenses of $749,665 in the quarter
ended December 31, 1999 increased by $114,359 or 18% from the quarter ended
December 31, 1998 expenses of $635,306. As a percentage of revenues, research,
development and engineering expenses were 10% and 8% in the quarters ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increased research, development
and engineering expenses are due primarily to the Company's continued work on a
large proposal.

     General and administrative expenses of $1,037,555 in the quarter ended
December 31, 1999 increased by $26,492 or 3% from the quarter ended December 31,
1998 expenses of $1,011,063. As a percentage of revenues, general and
administrative expenses were 13% and 12% in the quarters ended December 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively. General and administrative expense were substantially
unchanged between the periods.

     Income from operations was $1,227,036 for the quarter ended December 31,
1999 compared to $1,731,055 in the quarter ended December 31, 1998, a decrease
of $504,019. As a percentage of revenues, income from operations decreased to
16% in the quarter ended December 31, 1999 from 20% in the quarter ended
December 31, 1998. The reduction in income from operations overall resulted
primarily from decreased revenues and gross profits and increased research,
development and engineering expenses as discussed above.

     Interest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was decreased by
$199,517 to $47,427 compared to $246,944 in the quarter ended December 31, 1998.
This decrease is due to a reduction in outstanding credit balances for the
period ended December 31, 1999.

     The Company's net income was $625,920 in the quarter ended December 31,
1999 compared to $933,572 in 1998. Net income as a percentage of revenues
decreased to 8% in the quarter ended December 31, 1999 from 11% in the quarter
ended December 31, 1998. The reduction in net income overall resulted


                                    Page 10

 <PAGE>


primarily from decreased revenues and gross profits and increased research,
development and engineering expenses, as discussed above.

     The Company's basic earnings per share was $0.04 ($0.03 fully diluted) in
the quarter ended December 31, 1999 compared to $0.08 ($0.07 fully diluted) in
1998. The reduction in earnings per share was due in part to the reduced net
income, but was also affected by the increase in shares outstanding from the
exercise of outstanding warrants following the warrant call which took place in
June 1999. Basic shares outstanding increased to 17,567,610 from 12,252,837 for
the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and fully
diluted shares outstanding increased to 17,989,580 from 12,563,376 for the three
months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has floating rate financing with the Bank in an amount up to
$14,000,000 under a revolving line of credit with a maturity date of December
31, 2001, convertible thereafter to five year term debt. The loan agreement
includes various loan covenants and restrictions of a customary nature which
may, under certain circumstances, limit the ability of the Company to pay cash
dividends, undertake additional acquisitions, make certain changes in the
Company's management, or otherwise limit obligations undertaken by, or
operations of, the Company. As of December 31, 1999, there were no borrowings
outstanding under this arrangement with the Bank.

     In addition, the Company has subordinated notes, payable to each of the
previous shareholders of EDL and STL, aggregating $2,216,250, as of December 31,
1999. These notes bear interest at 8%, are payable in quarterly payments which
began April 1, 1999 and mature on January 1, 2002. These notes are subordinate
to the rights of the Bank.

     The Company has a dependence upon a few major customers for a significant
portion of its revenues. This dependence for revenues has not been responsible
for any unusual fluctuations in operating results in the past, and management
does not believe this concentration will generate fluctuations in operating
results in the future. However, the potential impact of losing a major customer
without securing offsetting and equivalent orders could result in a significant
negative impact to the operating results of the Company. The gross margin
contributions of the Company's major customers are not generally different from
those from its other customers as a whole.

     The Company's operating cash flow was $4,430,578 for the three months ended
December 31, 1999 compared to a $981,917 use of net cash in operating activities
during the three month period ended December 31, 1998. This resulted primarily
from decreases in accounts receivable, contracts in progress and inventory,
offset by a decrease in accounts payable for the three months ended December 31,
1999.

     As of December 31, 1999, management believes inventory balances are not in
excess of requirements for deliveries and normal minimum stocking levels.

     Generally, accounts receivable at the end of each quarter are collected
within the following quarter. The Company's total outstanding accounts
receivable balance of $5,773,324 at December 31, 1999 has been subsequently
reduced by approximately $3,620,000 in cash collections. The Company has
provided an allowance for certain older balances of $79,495. This allowance is
believed to be sufficient to address any uncollectible balances outstanding as
of December 31, 1999.

                                    Page 11

 <PAGE>

     On June 3, 1998, the Company entered into a loan agreement with an officer
and director of the Company. The note receivable of $215,685 bears interest at
the rate of interest then applicable for borrowings by the Company under the
Company's then-existing line of credit or other primary lending arrangement with
its primary lender, with interest payable annually, and matures on June 3, 2003.

As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's backlog was approximately $7.7
million and $26.6 million, respectively, consisting of firm fixed price purchase
orders. All of these purchase orders are expected to generate profits within the
Company's historical levels, and the Company believes that the completion of the
orders comprising its backlog, and any new orders which may be accepted by the
Company in the future, should not result in additional liquidity pressures which
cannot be addressed in a manner consistent with the Company's past practices.
The Company currently expects to manufacture and deliver substantially all of
the products in backlog within the next 12 months. In addition to the firm fixed
price purchase orders, the Company has approximately $9.4 million in unfunded
deliverables from an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity ("IDIQ") contract
to be completed over the next 48 months. Approximately $2.7 million of the
decrease in backlog between December 31, 1999 and 1998 is due to the Company's
decision to withdraw from the medical business. The remaining difference is due
primarily to an 83% reduction in firm fixed price purchase orders for signal
intelligence products as of December 31, 1999 compared to 1998. This reduction
in backlog may result in reduced revenues and net income for the fiscal year
ending September 30, 2000.

     On November 2, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to
repurchase up to 1,000,000 of its outstanding shares of common stock within the
twelve month period following such date for a maximum purchase price, including
commissions, not to exceed $3,500,000 in the aggregate. During the period ended
December 31, 1999, the Company repurchased 55,173 shares of its common stock for
a total cost of $150,951 at an average purchase price of $2.736 per share.

     The Company anticipates, based on its currently proposed plans and
assumptions relating to its operations, that the Company's existing working
capital and anticipated cash flows from the Company's operations will be
sufficient to satisfy the Company's cash requirements for at least twelve
months. As the Company continues to grow, additional bank borrowings, such as
under the revolving line of credit, as previously described, other debt
placements and equity offerings may be considered, in part or in combination, as
the situation warrants. In addition, in the event the Company's plans change or
its assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate, or if projected cash flow
otherwise proves insufficient to fund operations, the Company might need to seek
other sources of financing to conduct its operations. There can be no assurance
that any such other sources of financing would be available when needed, on
commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company recognized that year 2000 issues could have resulted in system
failures or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
others, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage
in similar normal business activities.

     The Company engaged in an evaluation of its year 2000 readiness concerning
various aspects of its business. Specifically, the Company focused on its
information technology and non-information technology systems. In addition, the
Company analyzed its production processes and products. The Company analyzed
year 2000 issues relating to third parties with whom the Company has a business
relationship. The current status of the Company's efforts as of December 31,
1999 were as follows:

         Information Technology Systems: The Company's accounting software
         provider and operating system provider advised the Company that such
         software is year 2000 compliant.

                                    Page 12


<PAGE>


         Non-Information Technology Systems: Although the Company did not
         believe that non-information technology systems are material to its
         business, the Company reviewed and tested such systems. The Company did
         not incur any material costs in connection with the review and testing
         of such systems.

         Products: The Company's products are date sensitive. Engineering
         accomplished a review of Paravant products and published a list by
         product as to whether the product meets year 2000 readiness
         requirements, and if not, what must be accomplished for the product to
         meet these requirements. In these incidences, the worst case scenario
         is the product operator would, after 0001 hours January 1, 2000, enter
         the time and date into the product's set up and reboot the product. The
         Company does not believe it has any material exposure with regard to
         its products as a result of the year 2000 issue and as of February 4,
         2000 has not received any complaints on these products.

         Suppliers: Certain products purchased by the Company are obtained from
         a limited group of suppliers. The Company surveyed such suppliers in
         1998 and again in 1999 regarding their year 2000 status. Absent
         widespread difficulties affecting several major vendors, the Company
         did not anticipate that vendors' year 2000 issues would have a material
         adverse effect on the Company, and as of February 4, 2000 has not
         incurred any problems with suppliers.

         Outside Services: The Company was not aware of the year 2000 readiness
         of certain outside services companies. However, as of February 4, 2000
         the Company has not incurred any problems with any outside service
         companies.

         Customers: Because the customer base is expected to change from year to
         year, the Company was unable to predict the identity of all of its
         major customers in the year 2000 and thereafter. However, the Company
         had surveyed its significant customers as to whether the customers'
         computer driven payment or purchasing processes were year 2000
         compliant and they indicated they had adequate plans in place to
         mitigate any anticipated difficulties. A customer's year 2000 issues
         could have caused delays in receipt of purchase orders or in payment.
         If year 2000 issues were widespread among the Company's customers, the
         Company's revenues and cash flow could be materially affected. However,
         as of February 4, 2000 the Company has not incurred any problems with
         any customers.

         Costs: Management has determined that the costs to implement this plan
         have been less than $100,000 and the Company does not anticipate any
         material additional costs to be incurred.

     As of February 4, 2000, the Company has not experienced any adverse results
or significant business disruptions related to the year 2000 issue. No
additional spending has been required to remedy any year 2000 problems. The
Company has not experienced any material effects on its business due to failures
by customers, suppliers or outside service companies to address year 2000
issues. Year 2000 problems may yet arise. At this time the Company has no
indications that such problems will arise, but the Company intends to continue
to monitor the year 2000 issue for any problems during the current year.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On January 26, 2000, the Company completed the purchase of a building and
approximately 10 acres of land, which will become the new headquarters of
Paravant Computer Systems, Inc. The property was purchased for $558,656 and
renovations were begun immediately. The total estimated cost to complete this
project is $1.5 million. Initial renovations are expected to be completed by May
2000. The Company expects financing for this project to be in accordance with
it's existing banking relations.
