Herley Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Unaudited)

1.   The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of Herley
     Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries,  all of which are wholly-owned.  All
     significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

     In the opinion of the  Company,  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial
     statements  reflect all  adjustments  (which include only normal  recurring
     adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations and cash
     flows for the periods presented. These financial statements (except for the
     balance sheet  presented at August 1, 1999) are unaudited and have not been
     reported on by independent public accountants.

     Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
     the results of operations for a full year due to external factors which are
     beyond the control of the Company.

2.   The Company  entered into an  agreement,  as of January 3, 2000, to acquire
     substantially all of the assets of Robinson Laboratories,  Inc. ("Robinson"
     or "Robinson Labs"), a New Hampshire  corporation,  which is being operated
     as a division of Herley Industries,  Inc. The transaction,  which closed on
     February 1, 2000,  provided  for the  payment of  $6,000,000  in cash,  the
     issuance of 33,841 shares of Common Stock of the Company  valued at $15.188
     per share, and the assumption of  approximately  $3,135,000 in liabilities.
     In addition,  the agreement  provides for the issuance of additional shares
     of Common Stock at a future date,  aggregating  97,841shares,  based on new
     orders booked through  January 31, 2001. The transaction has been accounted
     for under the purchase method. Accordingly,  the consolidated balance sheet
     includes the assets and  liabilities  of Robinson at January 30, 2000,  and
     the  consolidated  statement of income  includes the results of  Robinson's
     operations  from  January 3, 2000.  Excess  cost over the fair value of net
     assets  acquired of  approximately  $4,587,000 is being  amortized  over 20
     years.  The  allocation  of  the  aggregate  estimated  purchase  price  of
     $6,534,000 will be revised when additional information concerning asset and
     liability valuations is obtained.  Adjustments, which could be significant,
     will be made during the allocation  period based on detailed reviews of the
     fair values of assets acquired and liabilities  assumed and could result in
     a  substantial  change in the  excess  of cost  over the fair  value of net
     assets acquired.

     On the basis of a pro forma  consolidation  of the results of operations as
     if the  acquisition  had  taken  place at the  beginning  of  fiscal  1999,
     unaudited consolidated net sales, net income, basic earnings per share, and
     diluted  earnings  per share for the thirteen  and  twenty-six  weeks ended
     January 31,  1999 would have been  approximately  $16,888,000,  $1,997,000,
     $.38,  and $0.35,  and  approximately  $30,510,000,  $3,582,000,  $.68, and
     $0.64,  respectively,  and for the twenty-six  weeks ended January 30, 2000
     would have been  approximately  $35,066,000,  $3,246,000,  $.69,  and $.65,
     respectively. The pro forma information includes adjustments for additional
     depreciation  based on the  estimated  fair market  value of the  property,
     plant,  and  equipment  acquired,  the  amortization  of  intangibles,  and
     additional  interest on bank borrowings  arising from the transaction.  The
     pro  forma  financial  information  is not  necessarily  indicative  of the
     results of  operations  as they would  have been had the  transaction  been
     affected at the beginning of fiscal 1999.

     Notes payable - other at January 30, 2000 consists of bank debt of $946,849
     and notes  payable to a former  shareholder  of  Robinson  in the amount of
     $588,619. The notes and bank debt were paid at the time of closing.

4.   In January  2000,  the Company  entered into an amendment to its  revolving
     loan agreement with a bank that provides for a revolving  unsecured loan in
     the aggregate principal amount of $30,000,000 which may be used for general
     corporate purposes,  including business acquisitions.  The revolving credit
     facility  requires  the  payment of  interest  only on a monthly  basis and
     payment of the outstanding  principal balance on January 31, 2002. Interest
     is set at 1.65% over the FOMC  Federal  Funds Target Rate based on tangible
     net worth in excess of $25,000,000, or at an increment of 1.80% if tangible
     net worth is less than $25,000,001. The aggregate rate was 7.15% at January
     30,  2000,  including  an  increment  of 1.80%.  There is a fee of 15 basis
     points  per annum on the unused  portion  of the  credit  line in excess of
     $20,000,000  payable quarterly.  Borrowings under the line were $20,000,000
     at January 30, 2000. The credit  facility also provides for the issuance of
     stand-by  letters  of credit  with a fee of 1.0% per  annum of the  amounts
     outstanding  under the facility.  At January 30, 2000, stand- by letters of
     credit aggregating $1,135,122 were outstanding under this facility.

     The agreement contains various financial covenants,  including, among other
     matters,  minimum  tangible  net worth,  debt to tangible  net worth,  debt
     service coverage, and restrictions on other borrowings.

     price of the common  shares.  The options  and  warrants,  which  expire at
     various  dates  through  December 28, 2009,  were still  outstanding  as of

     outstanding  during the second quarter of fiscal 1999 but were not included
     in the  computation of diluted EPS because the exercise  prices are greater
     than the average market price of the common shares.

     exercise prices ranging from $13.88 to $16.46,  were outstanding during the

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

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995

The  statements  contained  in this  report  which are not  historical  fact are
"forward-looking statements" that involve various important assumptions,  risks,
uncertainties  and other factors which could cause the Company's  actual results
for fiscal 2000 and beyond to differ  materially  from those  expressed  in such
forward-looking statements. These important factors include, without limitation,
competitive  factors  and  pricing  pressures,  changes in legal and  regulatory
requirements,  technological change or difficulties,  product development risks,
commercialization  and trade  difficulties and general economic  conditions,  as
well as other risks previously disclosed in the Company's securities filings and
press releases.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Thirteen weeks ended January 30, 2000 and January 31, 1999
- ----------------------------------------------------------
Net sales  for the  thirteen  weeks  ended  January  30,  2000 were  $16,217,000
compared to $14,532,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. The sales increase
of $1,685,000 (11.6%) is primarily  attributable to revenue generated by General
Microwave,  which was included in fiscal 1999 for one month, of $2,863,000,  and
revenue of $816,000 from Robinson Labs which was acquired as of January 3, 2000.
In addition  microwave products revenue increased $596,000 in the second quarter
fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal  1999.  These  increases  in revenue  from the
microwave  technology  group were offset by  reductions  in revenues from flight
instrumentation products of $2,590,000.

The gross profit margin of 36.4%,  in the thirteen weeks ended January 30, 2000,
was 2.2  percentage  points lower than the margin of 38.6% in the second quarter
of the prior year. The decrease is due to lower margins on microwave components,
and certain  foreign  contracts,  as well as lower  margins  than the  Company's
historical margins from the General Microwave revenues.

Selling and  administrative  expenses for the thirteen  weeks ended  January 30,
2000  increased  $614,000  as  compared  to the second  quarter of fiscal  1999.
Selling and administrative expenses of General Microwave account for $658,000 of
the  increase,  and Robinson  Labs  accounts for  $143,000.  Synergies  from the
consolidation  of Metraplex  and Steward  Warner into the  Lancaster  facilities
reduced expenses by approximately $198,000.

Investment income declined $35,000 from the prior year due to the liquidation of
investments  during the second  quarter  fiscal 1999, the proceeds of which were
used to partially fund the acquisition of General Microwave.  In addition,  bank
borrowings  of  $11,400,000  used  to fund  the  acquisition  contributed  to an
increase in interest expense of approximately $146,000.

Twenty-six weeks ended January 30, 2000 and January 31, 1999
- ------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the  twenty-six  weeks ended  January  30,  2000 were  $32,357,000
compared to $26,183,000 in the comparable prior year period.  The sales increase
of $6,174,000 (23.6%) is primarily  attributable to revenue generated by General
Microwave,  which was included in fiscal 1999 for one month, of $6,918,000,  and
revenue of $816,000 from Robinson Labs which was acquired as of January 3, 2000.
In  addition  microwave  products  revenue  increased  $1,571,000  in the second
quarter fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999.  These increases in revenue from
the microwave technology group were offset by reductions in revenues from flight
instrumentation products of $3,131,000.

Gross profit margin for the twenty-six weeks ended January 30, 2000 was 38.3% as
compared to 40.1% in fiscal 1999. The decline in margin of 1.8 percentage points
is due primarily to lower margins on microwave components

                                        8





and certain  foreign  contracts,  as well as lower  margins  than the  Company's
historical margins from the General Microwave revenues.

Selling and  administrative  expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended January 30,
2000 were  $6,388,000  compared to  $4,652,000 in the first six months of fiscal
1999,  an increase of  $1,736,000.  The  increase is primarily  attributable  to
expenses of General  Microwave  of  $1,708,000  and  Robinson  Labs of $143,000.
Synergies  from the  consolidation  of  Metraplex  and  Steward  Warner into the
Lancaster   facilities  reduced  expenses  by  approximately   $451,000.   Other
significant  changes  include  increases in performance  incentives of $232,000,
corporate  contributions of $101,000,  personnel costs of $144,000,  and outside
services of $121,000. Representative fees decreased $248,000.

Investment income declined $84,000 from the prior year due to the liquidation of
investments  during the second  quarter  fiscal 1999, the proceeds of which were
used to partially fund the acquisition of General Microwave.  In addition,  bank
borrowings  of  $11,400,000  used  to fund  the  acquisition  contributed  to an
increase in interest expense of approximately $316,000.

Business Acquisition
- --------------------
The  Company  entered  into an  agreement,  as of January  3,  2000,  to acquire
substantially all of the assets of Robinson  Laboratories,  Inc.  ("Robinson" or
"Robinson  Labs"),  a New Hampshire  corporation,  which is being  operated as a
division of Herley Industries, Inc. The transaction, which closed on February 1,
2000,  provided for the payment of  $6,000,000  in cash,  the issuance of 33,841
shares of Common  Stock of the  Company  valued at $15.188  per  share,  and the
assumption  of  approximately  $3,135,000  in  liabilities.   In  addition,  the
agreement  provides for the issuance of  additional  shares of Common Stock at a
future  date,  aggregating  97,841shares,  based on new  orders  booked  through
January  31,  2001.  The cash  portion of the  purchase  price was  financed  by
borrowing  under  the  Company's  existing  line of credit  with its  bank.  The
transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method.  Accordingly,  the
consolidated  balance sheet  includes the assets and  liabilities of Robinson at
January 30, 2000, and the consolidated  statement of income includes the results
of Robinson's  operations from January 3, 2000.  Excess cost over the fair value
of net assets  acquired of  approximately  $4,587,000 is being amortized over 20
years.  The allocation of the aggregate  estimated  purchase price of $6,534,000
will be revised  when  additional  information  concerning  asset and  liability
valuations is obtained.  Adjustments,  which could be significant,  will be made
during the  allocation  period  based on detailed  reviews of the fair values of
assets acquired and liabilities assumed and could result in a substantial change
in the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired.

On the basis of a pro forma consolidation of the results of operations as if the
acquisition  had  taken  place  at  the  beginning  of  fiscal  1999,  unaudited
consolidated  net sales,  net  income,  basic  earnings  per share,  and diluted
earnings per share for the thirteen and twenty-six  weeks ended January 31, 1999
would have been  approximately  $16,888,000,  $1,997,000,  $.38, and $0.35,  and
approximately $30,510,000,  $3,582,000,  $.68, and $0.64, respectively,  and for
the  twenty-six  weeks  ended  January  30,  2000 would have been  approximately
$35,066,000, $3,246,000, $.69, and $.65, respectively. The pro forma information
includes  adjustments  for additional  depreciation  based on the estimated fair
market value of the property, plant, and equipment acquired, the amortization of
intangibles,  and  additional  interest  on bank  borrowings  arising  from  the
transaction.  The pro forma financial information is not necessarily  indicative
of the results of  operations as they would have been had the  transaction  been
affected at the beginning of fiscal 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
As of January 30, 2000 and August 1, 1999,  working  capital was $29,061,000 and
$25,703,000,   respectively,   and  the  ratio  of  current  assets  to  current
liabilities  was 2.97 to 1 and 3.44 to 1,  respectively.  The  reduction  in the
current ratio is primarily attributable to the purchase of assets and assumption
of certain liabilities of Robinson Labs.

                                        9





As is customary  in the defense  industry,  inventory  is partially  financed by
progress  payments.  The  unliquidated  balance of these  advanced  payments was
approximately  $1,431,000  at January 30, 2000,  and $439,000 at August 1, 1999.
Net progress  payments of $862,000  received  during the quarter relate to a new
contract.

Net cash provided by operations during the period was approximately  $4,478,000,
up from $3,308,000 in the prior fiscal year.

Net cash used in investing  activities  consists of the  acquisition of Robinson
Labs, in part for cash of  approximately  $6,000,000,  as discussed  above under
"Business  Acquisition",  and  $1,794,000  for capital  expenditures,  including
building and leasehold  improvements  of $1,249,000 to  accommodate  the move of
General  Microwave from Amityville,  NY to a leased facility in Farmingdale,  NY
and consolidation of the General  Microwave leased  facilities in Billerica,  MA
with  Herley-MDI in Woburn,  MA. Net cash received from the sale of the facility
in Amityville was $4,125,000.

The Company  maintains a revolving  credit facility with a bank for an aggregate
of $30,000,000,  as amended in January 2000,  which expires January 31, 2002. As
of January 30, 2000 and August 1, 1999, the Company had  borrowings  outstanding
of $20,000,000 and $12,500,000, respectively.

During the period ended January 30, 2000,  the Company  received net proceeds of
approximately $227,000 from the exercise of common stock options and warrants by
employees  and acquired  512,000  shares of treasury  stock  through open market
purchases  at a cost of  $7,565,000.  The Company has  acquired an  aggregate of
858,050 shares under the 1,250,000 share buyback programs  approved by the Board
of Directors.  The Company also acquired  6,027 shares of common stock valued at
$86,766 in connection with certain "stock-for-stock"  exercises of stock options
by which  certain  employees  elected  to  surrender  "mature"  shares  owned in
settlement of the option price,  and related tax  obligations  of $39,647.  Such
exercises  are treated as an exercise of a stock option and the  acquisition  of
treasury shares by the Company. All such treasury shares have been retired.

At January 30, 2000, the Company had cash and cash  equivalents of approximately
$3,486,000.

The Company believes that presently anticipated future cash requirements will be
provided by internally generated funds and existing credit facilities.

Item 3:  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
