REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Halifax Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Halifax
Corporation and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated  statements of earnings, changes in stockholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
March 31, 1996.  Our audits also included the financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 14(a).  These financial statements and schedule
are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements and
schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Halifax
Corporation and its subsidiaries at March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material
respects the information set forth therein.

HALIFAX CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994


1.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BUSINESS ACTIVITY

	Business Activity - Halifax Corporation, (the Company) provides
	Electronic services and Facilities support to
        Government and industry.  These services include installation,
	maintenance, field engineering, operations and logistics support
	for equipment systems and facilities from the most technically
	sophisticated electronics to common hardware.  Revenues from
	services rendered to the United States Government and the relative
        percentages of such revenues to total revenues for the years ended
	March 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 are $34,420,000 (73%), $37,750,000
	(83%) and $67,643,000 (93%), respectively.  For the years ended
	March 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company derived 0%, 15% and 60%,
	respectively, of its revenue from its MPS contract with the U.S.
	Marine Corps.  The MPS contract was completed in the first quarter
	of fiscal year 1995.

        Principles of Consolidation - The Company's consolidated financial
	statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
	subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany transactions are
	eliminated in consolidation.

        Revenue Recognition - On cost-type contracts, revenues are recorded
	as reimbursable costs are incurred and related fixed and award fees
	are recorded using the percentage of completion method.  On time and
	materials contracts, revenues are recorded at the contractual rates
	as labor hours and other direct expenses are incurred.  On fixed
	price contracts, revenues are recorded using the percentage of
	completion method.  Revenues collected in advance for commercial
	maintenance contracts are deferred and recognized over the term of
	the related agreements.  For all contracts, recognition is made of
	any anticipated losses when identified.  Disputes involving amounts
	owed the Company by customers arise in the normal course of the
	Company's business. These disputes are primarily due to changes in
	contract specifications and disagreements over the interpretation
        of contract provisions.  Such disputes are recorded at the lesser of
	their estimated net realizable value or actual costs incurred.
	Claims against the Company and contract losses are recognized when
	loss is considered probable and reasonably  determinable in amount.

        Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in
	conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
	management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
	reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
	contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
	statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
	the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
 estimates.

        Property and Depreciation - Property and equipment is stated at cost.  
 Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the 
 estimated useful lives of the related	assets.

        Inventory - Inventory consists principally of spare computer parts
	valued at the lower of cost or market on the first-in first-out basis
	and is displayed on the consolidated balance sheet net of allowances
	for inventory obsolence of $804,000 and $611,000 at March 31, 1996
	and 1995, respectively.

        Income Taxes - The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of
	Financial Accounting Standards Number 109, "Accounting for Income
	Taxes" (SFAS 109).  Under SFAS 109, deferred taxes are provided on
	all temporary differences measured using enacted tax rates expected
	to be in effect during the periods in which the temporary
	differences reverse.

        Intangibles and Other Assets - Other assets includes cost in excess
	of net assets of acquired companies described in Note 2 which is
	being amortized using the straight-line method over 25 years.
	Management regularly reviews the valuation and amortization to
	determine possible impairment by comparing the carrying value to
	the undiscounted future cash flows of the related assets.

        New Accounting Pronouncements - In 1995, the Financial Accounting
	Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
	Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
	Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS
	No. 121 requires that certain long-lived assets to be held and used
        be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
	circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
	not be recoverable.  SFAS No. 121 also requires that certain
	long-lived assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the
	carrying amount or fair value less the cost to sell.  The Company
	will adopt SFAS No. 121 in fiscal 1997, as required, and is in the
	process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard.

        Reclasses - Certain prior years balances have been reclassed to
	conform to the 1996 presentation.

2.      ACQUISITION

        On April 1, 1996, the Company completed the acquisition of CMS
	Automation, Inc. (CMSA), a private Richmond, VA based computer
	network integration and solutions company.  Financial consideration
	was in the Company's stock with an assumption of debt.  There was an
	initial payment of approximately 140,000 shares from Treasury
        Stock representing approximately 12% of Halifax outstanding
	shares at closing and there may be additional
        payments of common stock over the next three years based on the
	annual earnings of CMSA.  The Company filed reports of the
	Acquisition Transaction with the SEC on Form 8-K on April 16, 1996
	and on June 17, 1996.

        The following proforma information is unaudited and reflects the
	acquisition as if CMSA had been acquired as of April 1, 1995.

        The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase with the purchase
	price allocated to the assets and liabilities based on their
	estimated fair value.  The initial purchase price and
	estimated costs of the transaction exceed the fair value of net
	assets purchased by $348,000 which will be capitalized as part
	of the purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net assets
	acquired.

        On  June 30, 1993, the Company purchased substantially all of the
	assets and liabilities of the Field Services Division of Electronic
	Associates, Inc. (EAI) which is primarily engaged in the
	maintenance of electronic equipment and software for an initial
	purchase price of approximately $2.4 million.  Additional payments
	of $1,000,000 were paid over the next 3 years since certain revenue
	objectives were achieved.  The Company paid $200,000 relating to
	this requirement in 1994 and $400,000 in both 1995 and 1996.


        The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase with the purchase
	price having been allocated to the assets and liabilities based on
	their estimated fair market value.  The initial purchase price and
	related costs exceeded the fair value of the net assets purchased by
	$1,235,000.  A portion of the purchase price was allocated to
	contract rights ($400,000) and a covenant not to compete ($150,000)
	which are being amortized on a straight- line-basis over 10 and 3
	years, respectively.  The additional payments noted above have
	been capitalized as part of the purchase price in excess of the fair
	value of the net assets acquired.  Accumulated amortization of costs
	in excess of net assets acquired, contract rights and covenants not
	to compete at March 31, 1996 are $138,000, $110,000 and $107,000,
	respectively.

        The pro forma information provided below is unaudited and reflects
	the acquisition as if EAI had been acquired as of the beginning of
	the year presented, after accounting for the effect of costs in
	excess of net assets acquired, contract rights, capitalized
	acquisition costs and noncompetition covenant amortization, and the
        increased interest expense on funds used to finance the
	acquisition.  The pro forma information (in 000s) is not
	necessarily indicative of operations that would have occurred had
	the transaction been consummated at the beginning of the period
	presented.


                                                                      Proforma           Tax

3.         ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

           Accounts receivable consists of:

                                                                March 31,

    	Retainages are generally billable upon acceptance of work by
	customers or completion of contract audits by the Government.  It is
	anticipated that the accounts receivable balance at March 31,
	1996 will be substantially collected within one year.  The Company
	has a several claims against the Government which are in various
	stages of the settlement process. Management is unable to determine
	precisely when these claims will be settled because, to some extent,
	settlement is dependent on action by Government representatives
	and other factors outside the control of the Company.  However, in
	the opinion of management, adequate provision has been
	made to cover the settlement of all claims and ultimate resolution
	of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect
	on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
	operations.

      Revolving credit agreement amended effective
      December 11, 1992, with a maximum credit line of
      $7,000,000.  Amounts available under this agreement

      based on borrowings equal to or less than eligible
      billed receivables and at either the prime rate plus
      1/2% or the LIBOR rate plus 2.5% for borrowings in
      excess of billed receivables.  At March 31, 1996 the

Advances under the revolving credit agreement and term loan facilities are
collateralized by a first priority security interest in all the Company's

7.  COMMON STOCK

 	Stock Options - Under the Company's 1984 Incentive Stock Option and
	Stock Appreciation Rights Plan (as amended), options to purchase
	shares of the Company's common stock have been granted to officers
	and key employees at a price not less than the fair market value of
	the stock at the date of grant.  Any grants of options
	or stock appreciation rights under the plan are limited to a maximum
	of 110,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  Options and/or
	stock appreciation rights expire five years after the date of
	grant.  The 1984 plan terminated May 15, 1994.  On September 16,
	1994 the shareholders approved the new Key Employee Stock
	Option Plan ("1994 Plan").  The maximum number of shares subject to
	the 1994 Plan and approved for issuance is 120,000 shares of the
	Company's common stock either authorized and unissued or shares
	held in treasury.  This number is subject to adjustment in the event
	of stock splits, stock dividends or other recapitalization of the
	Company's common stock.

        Employee Plans - During fiscal 1985, the Company adopted a 401(k)
	retirement plan covering substantially all non-union employees
	with more than 3 months of service.  The plan provides that the
	Company will contribute an amount equal to 50% of a participant's
	contribution up to 4% of salary, and at the Company's discretion,
	additional amounts based upon the profitability of the Company.  The
	Company's contributions were $157,000 in 1996, $163,000 in 1995 and
	$102,000 in 1994.  The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase
	Plan under which all employees of the Company are eligible to
	contribute funds for the purchase of the Company's common
	stock on the open market at market value.  Under the Plan, the
	Company agrees to pay all brokerage commissions associated with such
	purchases.

8.  INCOME TAXES

        Deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheet reflect the
	net tax effect of temporary differences between carrying amounts of
	assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and the
	amounts used for income tax purposes.  The deferred assets and
	liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or
	noncurrent based on the classification of the related assets and
	liabilities.  The Company believes a valuation allowance is not
	required.

        The components of income tax expense are as follows for the years
	ended March 31:

	Company Board member is a partner.

11.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     	The Company's contracts with the U.S. government are subject to cost
	audits by Government authorities.  Such audits have been completed
	through March 31, 1990.  It is not possible to predict the outcome
	of future audits but it is the opinion of the Company's management
	that unrecorded liabilities, if any, arising from such audits
	would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
	consolidated financial position or results of operations.

      	Upon the death of a Company officer or a certain former officer and
	at the option of their estates, the Company is committed to
	repurchase their shares (64,619) at current book value.  At March
	31, 1996, the aggregate book value of such shares was approximately
	$460,000.

      	The Company is defendant or co-defendant in various lawsuits.  In
	the opinion of management, none of these lawsuits could
	materially affect the consolidated financial position or results of
	operations of the Company.
