NOTE 3. REPORTABLE BUSINESS SEGMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The Company has two reportable business segments: interconnect products and
assemblies and cable products. The interconnect products and assemblies segment
produces connectors and connector assemblies primarily for the communications,
aerospace, industrial and automotive markets. The cable products segment
produces coaxial and flat ribbon cable primarily for communication markets,
including cable television. The Company evaluates the performance of business
units on, among other things, profit or loss from operations before interest
expense, goodwill and other intangible amortization expense, headquarters'
expense allocations, income taxes and nonrecurring gains and losses. The
Company's reportable segments are an aggregation of business units that have
similar production processes and products. The segment results for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are as follows:

NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the course of pursuing its normal business activities, the Company is
involved in various legal proceedings and claims. Management does not expect
that amounts, if any, which may be required to be paid by reason of such
proceedings or claims will have a material effect on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.
Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol from Allied Signal Corporation
("Allied," subsequently merged with Honeywell International Inc.) in 1987,
Amphenol and Allied have been named jointly and severally liable as potentially
responsible parties in relation to several environmental cleanup sites. Amphenol
and Allied have jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remedial
and monitoring activities at two sites and they have been jointly ordered to
perform work at another site. The responsibility for costs incurred relating to
these sites is apportioned between Amphenol and Allied based on an agreement
entered into in connection with the acquisition. For sites covered by this
agreement, to the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at
the time of or prior to the acquisition, Allied is currently obligated to pay
80% of the costs up to $30,000 and 100% of the costs in excess of $30,000. At
September 30, 2001, approximately $22,100 of total costs have been incurred
applicable to this agreement. Management does not believe that the costs
associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
A subsidiary of the Company has an agreement with a financial institution
whereby the subsidiary can sell an undivided interest of up to $85,000 in a
designated pool of qualified accounts receivable.

AMPHENOL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
The agreement expires in May 2004 with respect to $60,000 of accounts receivable
and expires in July 2002 with respect to an additional $25,000 of accounts
receivable. Under the terms of the agreement, new receivables are added to the
pool as collections reduce previously sold accounts receivable. The Company
services, administers and collects the receivables on behalf of the purchaser.
Program fees payable to the purchaser under this agreement are equivalent to
rates afforded high quality commercial paper issuers plus certain administrative
expenses and are included in other expenses, net, in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Income. The agreement contains certain covenants and
provides for various events of termination. In certain circumstances the Company
is contingently liable for the collection of the receivables sold; management
believes that its allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb the
expense of any such liability. At September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,
approximately $64,400 and $85,000, respectively, in receivables were sold under
the agreement and are therefore not reflected in the accounts receivable balance
in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at those dates.
NOTE 5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard
("FAS") No. 133, as amended by FAS 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," which requires that all derivative instruments be
included in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the
fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on the intended
use of the derivative and its resulting designation. The Company periodically
uses derivative financial instruments in the management of its interest rate and
foreign currency exposures. The cumulative effect of adopting FAS 133 as of
January 1, 2001 was not material to the Company's financial statements.
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, ("FASB") issued FAS
No. 141 "Business Combinations" and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets". Among other provisions, all future business combinations will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and the use of the
pooling-of-interest method is prohibited. In addition, goodwill will no longer
be amortized but will be subject to impairment tests at least annually. The
Company is in the process of evaluating the effect these new standards will have
on the Company's financial statements. The Company expects to adopt FAS No. 141
and FAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002, although certain provisions will be
applied to any acquisitions that may close subsequent to June 30, 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
ITEM 2. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER AND
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
Net sales for the third quarter of 2001 decreased approximately 29% to
$252,581 compared to sales of $354,694 for the same period in 2000. Net sales
for the nine months of 2001 decreased approximately 15% to $843,399 compared to
sales of $990,253 for the same period in 2000. The decrease in sales for the
third quarter and nine months of 2001 is primarily attributable to a decline in
sales to communications related markets including sales of coaxial cable for
broadband communication systems and interconnect sales to telecom and datacom
markets. Such decreases were partially offset by increased sales of interconnect
products for military aerospace applications in the third quarter and aerospace
and industrial applications in the nine months of 2001. Currency translation had
the effect of reducing sales by approximately $4.8 million and $21.6 million in
the third quarter and nine month period of 2001, respectively, when compared to
exchange rates for the comparable 2000 periods.
The gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales (including depreciation
in cost of sales) was 33% and 34% for the quarter and nine months of 2001
compared to 33% and 32% for the same periods in 2000. The increase in gross
profit margin in the nine month period, is generally attributable to favorable
changes in product mix and cost control actions.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
remained relatively constant at approximately 14% for the third quarter and nine
months 2001 and 2000.
Interest expense for the third quarter and nine months of 2001 decreased to
$14,042 and $42,361 compared to $15,462 and $46,799 for the 2000 periods,
respectively. The decrease in both periods is attributable to lower average debt
levels and lower interest rates.
The provision for income taxes for both the nine months of 2001 and 2000 was
at an effective rate of 38%. Excluding non-deductible goodwill amortization, the
effective tax rate, was 35% for both the nine months of 2001 and 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash provided by operating activities was $82,190 in the nine months of 2001
compared to $105,642 in the 2000 period. The decrease in cash flow relates
primarily to a decrease in net income and to a net increase in non-cash
components of working capital.
For the nine months of 2001, cash from operating activities and cash on hand
were used to fund capital expenditures of $28,397, and acquisitions of $57,822.
In addition, borrowings of $52,793 under the Company's credit facilities were
used to fund a reduction in sales of receivables of $20,600 and Term Loan
amortization of $30,000 under the Company's bank loan agreement (the "Bank
Agreement"). In the 2000 period, cash from operating activities and proceeds
from the sale of additional accounts receivable were used to fund capital
expenditures of $35,454, acquisitions of $60,528, and to repay indebtedness of
$32,051.
The Company has a Bank Agreement which includes a Term Loan, encompassing a
Tranche A and B, and a $150,000 revolving credit facility. At September 30,
2001, the Tranche A had a balance of $242,748, which matures over the period
2002 to 2004, and the Tranche B had a balance of $284,500, which matures over
the period 2005 and 2006. The revolving credit facility expires in 2004;
availability under the facility at September 30, 2001 was $102,252 after
reduction of $6,948 for outstanding letters of credit. The Bank Agreement is
secured by a first priority pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the
11
<Page>
Company's direct domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of the
direct material foreign subsidiaries, as defined in the Bank Agreement. The Bank
Agreement also requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants
including interest coverage and leverage ratio tests, and includes limitations
with respect to, among other things, indebtedness and restricted payments,
including dividends on the Company's common stock.
The Company has entered into interest swap agreements that effectively fix
the Company's interest cost on $450,000 of borrowings under the Bank Agreement.
The Company's EBITDA as defined in the Bank Agreement was $200,474 and
$213,140 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
EBITDA is not a defined term under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP) and is not an alternative to operating income or cash flow from
operations as determined under GAAP. The Company believes that EBITDA provides
additional information for determining its ability to meet future debt service
requirements; however, EBITDA does not reflect cash available to fund cash
requirements.
The Company's primary ongoing cash requirements will be for debt service,
capital expenditures and product development activities. The Company's debt
service requirements consist primarily of principal and interest on bank
borrowings and interest on its 9 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007.
The Company has not paid, and does not have any present intention to
commence payment of, cash dividends on its common stock. The Company expects
that ongoing requirements for debt service, capital expenditures and product
development activities will be funded by internally generated cash flow and
availability under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company may also
use cash to fund part or all of the cost of future acquisitions.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol Corporation in 1987, Amphenol and
Allied Signal Corporation ("Allied," subsequently merged with Honeywell
International Inc.) have been named jointly and severally liable as potentially
responsible parties in relation to several environmental cleanup sites. Amphenol
and Allied have jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remedial
and monitoring activities at two sites and have been jointly ordered to perform
work at another site. The responsibility for costs incurred relating to these
sites is apportioned between Amphenol and Allied based on an agreement entered
into in connection with the acquisition. For sites covered by this agreement, to
the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at the time of
or prior to the acquisition, Allied is currently obligated to pay 80% of the
costs up to $30 million and 100% of the costs in excess of $30 million. At
September 30, 2001, approximately $22,100 of total costs have been incurred
applicable to this agreement. Management does not believe that the costs
associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard
("FAS") No. 133, as amended by FAS 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," which requires that all derivative instruments be
included in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the
fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on the intended
use of the derivative and its resulting designation. The Company periodically
uses derivative financial instruments in the management of its interest rate and
foreign currency exposures. The cumulative effect of adopting FAS 133 as of
January 1, 2001 was not material to the Company's financial statements.

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, ("FASB") issued FAS
No. 141 "Business Combinations" and No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets". Among other provisions, all future business combinations will be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and the use of the
pooling-of-interest method is prohibited. In addition, goodwill will no longer
be amortized but will be subject to impairment tests at least annually. The
Company is in the process of evaluating the effect these new standards will have
on the Company's financial statements. The Company expects to adopt FAS No. 141
and FAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002, although certain provisions will be
applied to any acquisitions that may close subsequent to June 30, 2001.
EURO CURRENCY CONVERSION
On January 1, 1999, certain member countries of the European Union
established fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies and the
European Union's common currency (the "euro"). The transition period for the
introduction of the euro began on January 1, 1999. Beginning January 1, 2002,
the participating countries will issue new euro-denominated bills and coins for
use in cash transactions. No later than July 1, 2002, the participating
countries will withdraw all bills and coins denominated in the legacy
currencies, so that the legacy currencies will no longer be legal tender for any
transactions, making the conversion to the euro complete.
The Company is addressing the issues involved with the introduction of the
euro. Based on progress to date, the Company believes that the use of the euro
will not have a significant impact on the manner in which it conducts its
business. Accordingly, conversion to the euro is not expected to have a material
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of
operations, or liquidity.
