              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared by
the Company without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted. Management
believes that the condensed statements include all necessary adjustments, which
are of a normal and recurring nature and are adequate to present financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The
condensed information should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes incorporated by reference in the Company's latest annual
report on Form 10-K. The Company's fiscal year is the 52 or 53 weeks ending the
last Saturday in May. Fiscal years 1999 and 1998 are 52 weeks.

ACQUISITIONS

On February 1, 1999, the Company acquired the assets of the Network Monitoring
and Mobile Test Systems business of Necsy Network Control Systems, S.p.A.
("Necsy"), a Padua, Italy based wholly owned subsidiary of Italtel, an Italian
telecommunications manufacturer, which is a joint venture between Telecom Italia
and Siemens AG. The cash purchase price and related goodwill are not material.
The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting, and
accordingly, the results of operations of Necsy have been included in the
Company's financial statements since the date of acquisition. Pro forma
comparative results of operations are not presented because they are not
material to the Company's results of operations.

On September 30, 1997, the Company acquired Siemens' Communications Test
Equipment GmbH ("CTE"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Siemens AG based in Berlin,
Germany, for approximately $46.6 million in cash, including direct acquisition
costs. The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting,
and accordingly, the results of operations of CTE have been included in the
Company's financial statements since the date of acquisition. Pro forma
comparative results of operations are not presented because they are not
material to the Company's results of operations. The purchase price was
allocated as follows:

The $17.0 million allocated to acquired in-process research and development was
determined based on appraisals completed by an independent third party using
established valuation techniques in the high-technology industry and was
expensed during the second quarter of fiscal year 1998 (see "Non-recurring
Charges" below), because technological feasibility had not been established and
no future alternative uses existed. Research and development costs to bring the
products from the acquired company to technological feasibility are not expected
to have a material impact on the Company's future results of operations or cash
flows.

The identified intangibles include $18.0 million of completed technology and
$5.0 million of workforce-in-place and are being amortized on a straight-line
basis over 15 years.

NON-RECURRING CHARGES

In the second quarter of fiscal year 1999, the Company announced and began to
implement a series of actions intended to align worldwide operations with
current market conditions and to improve the profitability of its operations.
These actions include a net reduction of approximately 10% of the Company's
worldwide workforce, the exit of certain facilities and the streamlining of
product and service offerings. Major actions are summarized below by each of the
three business divisions. Measurement's service business is being consolidated
from several depots in the United States and Europe into two depots in the
United States and one in Europe. This consolidation will result in headcount
reduction and the write-down and disposal of redundant inventory. These actions
are in process and will be completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000.
Measurement closed the Bend, Oregon manufacturing facility during the third
quarter and consolidated that process into its Beaverton, Oregon facilities.
This action resulted in headcount reductions and lease settlements. Measurement
will reduce headcount primarily in manufacturing over the next two quarters in
response to lower sales. Color Printing and Imaging has discontinued three
product lines - wide format, dye sublimation and B-size solid ink. This action
resulted in a write-off of inventory that was disposed of during the third
quarter. Color Printing and Imaging will reduce headcount primarily in
manufacturing during the next two quarters. Video and Networking has
discontinued development, manufacturing, and sales of non-linear digital editing
products sold under the Lightworks name. This decision resulted in headcount
reductions, write-offs of disposed inventory, incremental sales returns and bad
debts, and costs to fulfill commitments to deliver software enhancements on
previously sold product. These actions were in process in the third quarter and
will be completed by May 1999. Outside of the divisions, selective involuntary
terminations have occurred and will occur throughout corporate functions and in
the Company's foreign subsidiaries through the second quarter of fiscal year
2000. The Company expects to require $60.0 million in cash to be used in
connection with actions not yet completed, primarily for severance and lease
cancellations.

The Company recorded pre-tax charges of $120.5 million to account for these
actions, including restructuring charges of $109.2 million and other
non-recurring charges of $11.3 million for related actions. These related
actions include $6.5 million of expected sales returns of previously sold
product, $0.8 million of bad debt expense related to existing accounts
receivable that will not be collected and $4.0 million of costs to fulfill
commitments to deliver software enhancements on previously sold product, all
associated with exiting the non-linear digital editing business. The Company
decided to exit this business due to the failure of prior restructuring efforts
to return the business to profitability.

In the second quarter of fiscal year 1998, the Company announced and began to
implement a restructuring plan designed to return the Video and Networking
Division business to profitable growth and recorded a pre-tax provision of $60.0
million to account for these actions. The plan provided for headcount reductions
and the discontinuation of certain products within the Lightworks and Grass
Valley product lines, as well as the discontinuation of the Network Displays
business. As of February 27, 1999, the implementation of this plan was
substantially complete.

Also in the second quarter of fiscal year 1998, the Company expensed $17.0
million for the acquisition of in-process research and development and $2.0
million in severance costs associated with the acquisition of CTE. During the
third quarter of 1999, it was determined that $1.1 million of this $2.0 million
severance reserve for CTE would not be needed. The excess amount was reversed to
Non-recurring charges.

The charge of $54.7 million in accrued compensation reflects planned headcount
reductions of 1,371 employees worldwide. Approximately 500 employees have been
terminated under the plan. Severance of $15.8 million has been paid to
approximately 350 of these 500 employees, while the other 150 employees will be
paid severance in the fourth quarter. The remaining 871 employees will be
terminated at varying times through the second quarter of fiscal year 2000. The
$27.8 million charge to inventories includes inventories related to the
consolidation of Measurement service offerings, the discontinuation of three
Color Printing and Imaging product lines and the discontinuation of non-linear
digital editing products sold under the Lightworks name that were written off
during the second quarter. The charge of $15.6 million for equipment and other
assets includes asset impairments of $14.8 million and $0.8 million in reserve
for bad debt expense. The impaired assets are primarily related to discontinued
product lines in Color Printing and Imaging and Video and Networking and include
manufacturing assets of $6.2 million, goodwill and other intangibles of $6.5
million, and leasehold improvements and other assets of $2.1 million. All of the
assets included in this impairment charge will be disposed of through
abandonment at varying times through the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. The
$22.5 million charge for payables and other liabilities includes reserves for
lease buy-outs and abandonment of facilities, sales returns and allowances and
commitments for enhancements related to discontinued products. This reserve was
increased by $1.1 million during the third quarter through Non-recurring charges
to provide for additional costs to exit certain sales and service offices in the
United States and Europe.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

On November 2, 1998, the Company adopted a stock option exchange program that
allowed employees to elect to receive one new option for every two options
granted between January 1, 1997 and November 2, 1998. The Company recognized
compensation expense of $1.8 million during the quarter ended February 27, 1999
in connection with this program.

RECEIVABLES

On September 10, 1996, the Company entered into a five-year revolving
receivables purchase agreement with Citibank NA to sell, without recourse, an
undivided interest of up to $50.0 million in a defined pool of trade accounts
receivable. Receivables of $36.0 million were sold under this agreement as of
February 27, 1999 and are therefore not reflected in the accounts receivable
balance in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date.

On February 24, 1999, the Company entered into a one-year receivables purchase
agreement with NationsBanc Commercial Corporation to sell, without recourse, an
undivided interest in a defined pool of trade accounts receivable. Receivables
of $10.3 million were sold under this agreement as of February 27, 1999 and are
therefore not reflected in the accounts receivable balance in the accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS
No. 131 establishes standards for disclosure about operating segments in annual
financial statements and selected information in interim financial reports. The
new disclosures will first be presented in the Company's annual report for the
fiscal year ending May 1999. Information presented for earlier years will be
restated for comparative purposes. Adoption of this statement may result in
additional disclosures but will have no impact on the Company's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." The new statement will require recognition
of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair
value. The new statement is effective for fiscal year 2001, but early adoption
is permitted. Management has not yet completed an evaluation of the effect this
standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


                         Quarter ended February 27, 1999

                                       vs.

                         Quarter ended February 28, 1998


The Company operates in three major business divisions, Measurement, Color
Printing and Imaging, and Video and Networking, as well as five major
geographies, the United States, Europe, the Americas, including Mexico, Canada
and South America, the Pacific, excluding Japan, and Japan.

The Company recognized net income of $14.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share,
during the third quarter of fiscal year 1999, down 58% or $19.7 million from net
income of $34.2 million, or $0.67 per diluted share during the same period of
fiscal year 1998.

Sales for the third quarter of 1999 were $470.6 million, down 9% or $47.0
million from sales for the same period in 1998. Sales were down in all
geographies except Europe, which posted modest increases over 1998. The United
States and Japan experienced the largest declines, down 12% or $29.9 million and
28% or $10.5 million, respectively. The decline in sales to the United States
can be attributed mainly to lower Measurement sales in this region. Sales to
Japan decreased across all business divisions due to the effects of the Asian
economic crisis.

Orders were down across all business divisions for an 11% overall decrease from
the third quarter of 1998. Europe and the United States experienced the largest
decreases in orders, down 20% or $26.6 million and 9% or $20.3 million,
respectively. While all business divisions saw declines in orders from these
regions, Video and Networking experienced the largest declines. The declines in
orders from Europe and the United States were offset in part by an increase in
orders from the Pacific. All three business divisions experienced increases in
orders from the Pacific for a 38% or $12.5 million increase overall.

Sales increased sequentially over the second quarter of 1999 by 9% or $38.4
million, including non-recurring charges to second quarter sales of $6.5 million
for expected returns of discontinued products. Europe and Japan experienced the
largest increases, up 7% or $10.0 million and 58% or $9.8 million over the
second quarter. The increase in sales to Europe can be attributed to higher
Color Printing and Imaging sales in this region, offset in part by lower sales
to this region from the other two business divisions. The increase in sales to
Japan is due mainly to higher Measurement sales in this region.

Orders decreased 15% or $70.9 million sequentially, caused mainly by a decrease
in orders of 39% or $70.1 million from Europe. Half of the decline in orders
from Europe resulted from lower orders for Color Printing and Imaging products,
while the remainder resulted from order declines in the other two business
divisions.

                                       10
<PAGE>
Measurement sales for the third quarter of 1999 were $202.7 million, down 16% or
$37.5 million from sales of $240.2 million in the third quarter of 1998. The
decline was realized across all geographies, except the Pacific, which posted
modest increases over 1998. The largest decline was experienced in sales to the
United States, down 23% or $26.3 million, due mainly to order backlog from the
second quarter of the prior year sold in the third quarter. Most of the sales
decline was in wireless communication test equipment as well as general-purpose
equipment such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, reflecting the effects of
the Asian economic crisis, including its effects on other regions of the world,
and softness in the semiconductor industry. Orders for the quarter were $187.5
million, down 5% or $9.0 million from $196.5 million in 1998. The order decline
resulted mainly from declines of $5.2 million in orders from both the United
States and Europe offset in part by an increase in orders from the Pacific of
22% or $4.6 million. The same negative market conditions that affected sales
affected orders.

Measurement sales decreased by 1% or $2.3 million sequentially during the third
quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter. Japan and the Pacific posted
sequential growth due to increased sales associated with the fiscal year ends of
customers in these regions. The United States realized a decrease in sales of
12% or $12.2 million due to the effects of the Asian economic crisis continuing
to impact the United States economy and softness in the semiconductor industry.
Orders decreased by 6% or $12.8 million sequentially during the third quarter.
Declining orders from all other regions offset an increase in orders from Japan
associated with customers' fiscal year ends. Europe experienced the largest
sequential decline in orders, down 23% or $14.9 million, due mainly to a high
level of orders in the second quarter for a newly-released product that did not
ship until the third quarter.

Color Printing and Imaging sales were $197.6 million, up 8% or $13.9 million
from $183.7 million during the same period in 1998, primarily due to a 59%
increase in unit sales offset in part by a decrease in average sales price per
unit. The increase in unit sales is attributable mainly to the shipment of the
Phaser 740, a laser printer introduced during the second quarter. Shipments of
other products introduced during the second quarter were delayed until late in
the second quarter or during the third quarter. Sales were strong in all
regions, except Japan, with a particularly large increase in sales to Europe of
19% or $11.2 million. Orders for the quarter were $159.8 million, down 8% or
$13.4 million from the third quarter of 1998. The decline in orders was
experienced across all regions except the Pacific, which contributed a 50% or
$3.4 million increase. The largest order decline was realized in Europe, down
17% or $9.0 million due to lower average sales price per unit and a decline in
unit orders of laser printers.

Color Printing and Imaging sales increased by 24% or $38.3 million sequentially
during the third quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter, while orders
decreased 26% or $55.0 million during the same period. During the second
quarter, the Company received orders for its newly-introduced printer products,
although these new printers did not begin shipping until late in the second
quarter or during the third quarter. As a result of the timing of shipment of
the products, orders were backlogged in the second quarter and the orders were
filled and sales were recognized in the third quarter. Both the increase in
sales and the decrease in orders were realized across all geographies.

Video and Networking sales were $70.3 million, down 25% or $23.4 million from
sales of $93.7 million in 1998. The sales decline was realized across all
geographies and nearly all product lines. Approximately $13.3 million of the
decline was due to the Company's divestiture of the Network Displays business in
December 1998, with the remainder due mainly to discounting actions taken in
response to intense competition and market softness in the broadcast industry.
These conditions primarily affected sales of Grass Valley products and digital
storage products. Orders were down 31% or $28.1 million compared to the third
quarter of 1998. The decline was realized across all geographies except the
Pacific where orders increased 93% or $4.5 million. A decrease of approximately
$17.3 million in orders resulted from the Company's divestiture of the Network
Displays business, with the remainder due mainly to the same unfavorable market
conditions that affected sales. The business division realized an operating loss
for the quarter.

                                       11
<PAGE>
Video and Networking sales increased 4% or $2.4 million sequentially over the
second quarter of 1999, due mainly to the generation of sales through the
distribution and joint technology alliance formed with Avid Technology during
the second quarter. Sales of Grass Valley products and digital storage products
continued to decline, down 20% or $4.5 million and 10% or $1.9 million,
respectively, during the quarter. Orders decreased 5% or $3.1 million during the
same period, the net result of declines in orders from Europe and Japan, offset
in part by increases in orders from the other geographies. Declines in orders
for Grass Valley products and digital storage products led the overall order
decline.

The Company's gross profit decreased 16% or $35.8 million from the third quarter
of 1998 to $189.1 million as a result of declining sales and lower margins. As a
percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased from 43.4% to 40.2%. Measurement
gross margin remained consistent with the third quarter of the prior year, while
Color Printing and Imaging and Video and Networking margins declined. Color
Printing and Imaging gross margin decreased due mainly to lower sales prices on
printer products. Video and Networking gross margin decreased due to discounting
actions taken in response to intense competition, as well as fixed costs of
sales on lower sales volume.

Operating expenses decreased by $16.0 million from the third quarter of 1998 due
mainly to a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and
research and development expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
were $116.2 million for the quarter, a decrease of 6% or $7.0 million from the
same period in 1998 as a result of actions taken by the Company to remove
expenses from the cost structure. Research and development expenses decreased
16% or $8.7 million to $44.3 million due to the discontinuation of certain
product lines and other cost reduction efforts.

Income tax expense decreased from $16.9 million for the third quarter of 1998 to
$6.8 million for the current quarter as a result of decreased earnings before
taxes. The estimated annual effective rates used to calculate income taxes were
32% in 1999 and 33% in 1998.


                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


                     Three Quarters Ended February 27, 1999

                     Three Quarters Ended February 28, 1998


The Company recognized a net loss of $76.0 million, or $1.59 per share, during
the first three quarters of fiscal year 1999. Results for the first three
quarters reflect pre-tax charges of $120.5 million ($82.0 million after taxes,
or $1.71 per diluted share), including restructuring charges of $109.2 million
and other non-recurring charges of $11.3 million for related actions. These
charges resulted from the Company's announcement and implementation of a series
of actions intended to align worldwide operations with current market conditions
and to improve the profitability of its operations. The Company expects that,
when fully implemented, these actions will reduce ongoing annual costs by
approximately $70.0 million. The actions include a net reduction of
approximately 10% of the Company's worldwide workforce, the exit of certain
facilities and the streamlining of product and service offerings. Management
expects that the majority of the actions will be completed by the end of the
second quarter of fiscal year 2000 and expects to require $60.0 million in cash
to be used in connection with actions not yet completed, primarily for severance
and lease cancellations.

                                       12
<PAGE>
Major actions are summarized below by each of the three business divisions.
Measurement's service business is being consolidated from several depots in the
United States and Europe into two depots in the United States and one in Europe.
This consolidation will result in headcount reduction and the write-down and
disposal of redundant inventory. These actions are in process and will be
completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. Measurement closed the Bend,
Oregon manufacturing facility during the third quarter and consolidated that
process into its Beaverton, Oregon facilities. This action resulted in headcount
reduction and lease settlements. Measurement will reduce headcount primarily in
manufacturing over the next two quarters in response to lower sales. Color
Printing and Imaging has discontinued three product lines - wide format, dye
sublimation and B-size solid ink. This action resulted in a write-off of
inventory that was disposed of during the third quarter. Color Printing and
Imaging will reduce headcount primarily in manufacturing during the next two
quarters. Video and Networking has discontinued development, manufacturing, and
sales of non-linear digital editing products sold under the Lightworks name.
This decision resulted in headcount reductions, write-offs of disposed
inventory, incremental sales returns and bad debts and costs to fulfill
commitments to deliver software enhancements on previously sold product. These
actions were in process in the third quarter and will be completed by May 1999.
Outside of the divisions, selective involuntary terminations have occurred and
will occur throughout corporate functions and in the Company's foreign
subsidiaries through the second quarter of fiscal year 2000.

The non-recurring charges include a $6.5 million charge to sales for expected
returns of discontinued products and $27.7 million in charges to cost of sales
for the write-off of excess inventory resulting from discontinued product lines
and consolidation of service centers worldwide. These two charges resulted in a
decrease in gross profit of $34.2 million. Also included in the non-recurring
charges are $4.0 million in research and development expense to complete
customer committed software upgrades in discontinued product lines, $0.8 million
in charges to bad debt expense for doubtful accounts with balances related to
discontinued products, $54.7 million in severance expense related to employee
separation, $12.0 million in charges to facilities for lease cancellation fees
and $14.8 million in charges to long-term assets associated with discontinued
product lines. The $11.3 million of related actions consists of the charge to
sales, the charge to research and development, and the charges to bad debt
expense, while the remaining charges comprise the $109.2 million in
restructuring charges. Excluding these charges, the Company would have realized
$6.0 million in net income for the first three quarters of fiscal year 1999.

Results for the first three quarters of fiscal year 1998 were net earnings of
$39.7 million, or $0.77 diluted earnings per share, including non-recurring
charges of $79.0 million. See "Non-recurring Charges" in the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Sales for the first three quarters of 1999 were $1,321.8 million after the
non-recurring charge to sales of $6.5 million. Excluding the charge, sales were
$1,328.3 million, down 13% or $199.6 million from sales for the same period in
1998. Sales were down in all geographies except Europe, which posted modest
increases over 1998. Japan experienced the largest decrease in sales, down 44%
or $48.4 million from the first three quarters of 1998. Orders were down
approximately 9% overall for the first three quarters of 1999. The United States
experienced the largest decrease in orders, down 10% or $70.0 million, while
Europe experienced the only increase, up 3% or $12.7 million.

Measurement sales for the first three quarters of 1999 were $614.3 million, down
14% or $101.3 million from sales of $715.6 million in the first three quarters
of 1998. The decline was realized across all geographies, except Europe, which
was up 9% or $13.9 million. The largest decline was experienced in sales to the
United States, down 20% or $71.3 million, with an additional decline in Japan,
down 38% or $27.0 million. Most of the sales decline was realized in wireless
communication test equipment as well as general-purpose equipment such as
oscilloscopes and logic analyzers, reflecting the effects of the Asian economic
crisis, including its effects on other regions of the world, and softness in the
semiconductor industry. Orders for the three quarters were $567.6 million, down
11% or $68.5 million from $636.1 million in 1998. The decline in orders was
experienced across all geographies except Europe, which posted an order increase
of 12% or $16.4 million. The most significant decreases were realized in the
United States and Japan at 16% or $50.0 million and 32% or $20.2 million,
respectively, lower than the prior year.

Color Printing and Imaging sales were $512.3 million, down 2% or $12.7 million
from $525.0 million during the same period in 1998, due mainly to a decrease in
sales price of its printers and cautionary capital spending early in the fiscal
year. Sales to Europe increased 7% or $11.1 million, but were offset by declines
in Asia, down 58% or $14.2 million in Japan and 29% or $10.9 million in the
Pacific. Orders year to date were $531.0 million, up 8% or $36.9 million over
1998, due mainly to positive market response to printer products introduced
during the second quarter of 1999. Increases in orders from the United States,
Americas and Europe were partly offset by decreases in Japan of 33% or $5.1
million and the Pacific of 12% or $3.8 million.

Video and Networking sales were $195.2 million, down 32% or $92.1 million from
sales of $287.3 million in 1998. Orders were also down 33%, or $93.1 million
compared to the first three quarters of 1998. The decline in both sales and
orders was realized across all geographies and nearly all product lines as a
result of the Company's divestiture of the Network Displays business,
discounting actions taken in response to intense competition and market softness
in the broadcast industry.

The Company's gross profit decreased 19% or $118.6 million from 1998 to $499.6
million as a result of declining sales and lower margins. As a percentage of net
sales, gross profit decreased from 40.5% to 37.8%. Excluding non-recurring
charges, gross profit decreased 19% or $122.8 million, and gross profit as a
percentage of sales decreased from 43.0% to 40.2%. Measurement gross margin
remained consistent with the prior year, while Color Printing and Imaging and
Video and Networking margins declined. Color Printing and Imaging gross margin
decreased due mainly to lower sales prices on printer products. Video and
Networking gross margin decreased due to discounting actions taken in response
to intense competition, as well as fixed costs of sales on lower sales volume.

Operating expenses increased by $37.6 million over the first three quarters of
1998 due to an increase in non-recurring charges, loss on equity investments,
and increased research and development expenses, partly offset by a decrease in
selling, general and administrative expenses. Non-recurring charges increased
$41.0 million over those incurred during the first three quarters of 1998, while
loss on equity investments increased $9.3 million. Research and development
expenses increased by $3.5 million to $152.8 million, mainly due to
non-recurring charges of $4.0 million and costs incurred in the development of
new products introduced during the second quarter of 1999. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $358.5 million for the three quarters, including
non-recurring charges of $0.8 million, a decrease of 4% or $16.2 million from
the same period in 1998 as a result of actions taken by the Company to remove
expenses from the cost structure.

Income taxes decreased significantly from expense of $19.6 million for the first
three quarters of 1998 to benefit of $35.8 million for the same period in 1999
as a result of decreased earnings before taxes, including the income tax benefit
realized relating to the non-recurring charges recorded during the second
quarter of 1999. The estimated annual effective rates used to calculate income
taxes were 32% in 1999 and 33% in 1998.

                               FINANCIAL CONDITION


At February 27, 1999, the Company had $36.0 million of cash and cash equivalents
and bank credit facilities totaling $460.6 million, of which $209.7 million was
unused. Unused facilities include $108.7 million in lines of credit and $101.0
million under revolving credit agreements with United States and foreign banks.
The Company amended its credit agreement with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of
New York, as agent, effective November 28, 1998, to exclude certain charges from
covenant calculations.

The Company realized a decrease in working capital of $195.1 million from the
end of 1998. Current assets decreased $59.4 million during the three quarters,
with cash and cash equivalents decreasing $84.5 million, accounts receivable
decreasing $73.6 million, inventory increasing $47.3 million, and other current
assets increasing $51.4 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $84.5
million while short-term debt increased $132.8 million, for a total of
approximately $217.3 million of cash consumed year to date. Cash requirements
included the repurchase of approximately 3.6 million common shares for $85.5
million, capital expenditures of $80.6 million, dividends of $17.3 million,
severance of $15.8 million, and other operating, investing and financing
requirements. Accounts receivable decreased since the end of 1998 due to a
general decrease in sales during the period as well as a high volume of sales
during the last few weeks of 1998. Inventory increased as a result of the
ramp-up of components and finished goods relating to printer products introduced
at the end of the second quarter. Other current assets increased primarily from
an increase in net current tax benefits due to timing differences on taxes
related to restructuring actions, payment of taxes on 1998 earnings, and the tax
benefit related to the net loss realized fiscal year to date. Current
liabilities increased $135.6 million during the first three quarters of 1999,
with an increase in short-term debt of $132.8 million, an increase in accounts
payable of $8.7 million, and an increase in deferred revenue of $3.5 million,
offset in part by a decrease in accrued compensation of $9.4 million. Accounts
payable increased as a result of current liabilities associated with
non-recurring charges as well as the Company's ability to negotiate more
favorable payment terms with a major supplier. Deferred revenue increased due to
an increase in service agreements associated with sales. Accrued compensation
decreased due to payment of year-end accruals of incentives and commissions,
offset in part by the restructuring reserve.

Other long-term assets decreased $18.9 million from the sale of investments, a
slight decline in the market values of remaining investments held for sale, and
the recognition of losses on investments accounted for under the equity method.
Shareholders' equity decreased by $180.9 million from the end of 1998 due to the
loss of $76.0 million, dividends of $17.3 million, a net decrease of $83.7
million in paid-in capital, including issuance, repurchase and forfeiture of
common shares as well as a stock option exchange, a $9.4 million decrease in
unrealized holding gains and a $5.5 million increase in the accumulated currency
translation adjustment. The decrease in unrealized holding gains resulted
principally from the sale of assets.

YEAR 2000 UPDATE

Tektronix, Inc.'s Year 2000 Program ("Program") is proceeding as planned. The
Program is addressing the issue of computer programs and embedded computer chips
being unable to distinguish between the year 1900 and the year 2000. To improve
access to business information through common, integrated computing systems
across the Company, Tektronix began a worldwide business systems replacement
program with an enterprise system that uses programs primarily from Oracle
Corporation. This new enterprise system makes substantially all of the Company's
business computer systems year 2000 ready, and is now fully installed. Other
information technology projects have not been delayed due to the implementation
of the Year 2000 Program.

Program

Tektronix' Program is divided into three major sections: (1) infrastructure
(information, logistics and other technology used in the Company's business,
including hardware and software, which is sometimes referred to as "IT"); (2)
products (hardware and software products delivered to customers); and (3)
external suppliers and providers (vendors, manufacturers and suppliers to the
Company). The general phases common to all sections are: (1) identification and
prioritization of various systems through an extensive inventory of all items
used throughout the Company including customer products and services and
material third party manufacturers, suppliers and vendors; (2) remediation of
material systems through replacement or updates; (3) testing, including sending,
receiving and processing of various information types to ensure ongoing
functionality, integrity and accuracy; and (4) contingency planning to establish
alternate solutions for any material systems determined not to be Year 2000
compliant. Material items are those believed by the Company to have a risk
involving the safety of individuals or that may cause damage to property or the
environment, or affect the continuation of business activities or materially
affect revenues.

The identification and prioritization phase of the Program is substantially
complete. The Company is performing the remediation and testing phases of the
Program. This phase is on schedule and the Company estimates that overall,
approximately 85% of the planned activities related to the three major sections
have been completed at March 31, 1999. The testing phase is ongoing as hardware
or system software is remediated, upgraded or replaced. Remediation and testing
of internal systems is expected to be completed by June 1999. Contingency
planning is in process for all three sections and is scheduled for completion by
September 1999.

The Company's products that are not year 2000 ready have been identified, and as
a part of the remediation phase of the Program, the Company has determined to
what extent upgrades will be made available to make them ready. Most product
remediation is now complete, with any remaining remediation to be completed by
June 1999. All newly introduced products will be year 2000 ready. The Company
maintains a web-site for customers to review product readiness, including
product upgrades, customer serviceable fixes, and non-compliant products for
which upgrades will not be available.

The Company is in the process of assessing whether products or services provided
by external suppliers will be interrupted as a result of their failure to
address the year 2000 problem. To determine their preparedness, the Company has
joined the High Tech Consortium, LLC (HTC). This is a consortium of
approximately 15 other high technology companies, organized for the purpose of
assessing the readiness of common or shared suppliers. HTC has developed an
assessment methodology for suppliers. The supplier certification process
includes written representations from suppliers regarding their year 2000
readiness programs, as well as onsite reviews. Many of Tektronix' material
suppliers will be included in the HTC assessment process. Those that are not
will be reviewed individually to determine what assurances can be obtained
regarding their readiness.

Costs

Costs associated with modifications to become year 2000 ready, as well as the
total cost of the Year 2000 Program (but not including the costs of the Oracle
enterprise system), are estimated as follows:

                                       16
<PAGE>

Costs incurred through February 27, 1999                           $   581,000
Estimated remaining costs                                            1,116,000
                                                                    ----------
Total costs                                                        $ 1,697,000
                                                                    ==========

The total costs associated with required modifications to become year 2000
ready, as well as the total cost of the Year 2000 Program, are not expected to
be material to the Company's financial position or operating results.

Risks

The failure to correct a material year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or a failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Due to the general
uncertainty inherent in the year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the
uncertainty of the year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers,
the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of year
2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition. The Year 2000 Program is expected
to significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about the year 2000
problem and, in particular, about the year 2000 compliance and readiness of its
material third-party suppliers. The Company believes that, with the
implementation of new business systems and completion of the Program as
scheduled, the possibility of significant interruptions of normal operations
should be reduced.
