EMCORE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1.  Interim Financial Information and Description of Business

     The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated financial statements of
EMCORE   Corporation   ("EMCORE"  or  the  "Company")  reflect  all  adjustments
considered  necessary by  management  to present  fairly  EMCORE's  consolidated
financial  position as of June 30, 2001, the consolidated  results of operations
for the  three  and  nine-month  periods  ended  June 30,  2001 and 2000 and the
consolidated cash flows for the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.
All adjustments reflected in the accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated
financial  statements are of a normal  recurring  nature unless otherwise noted.
Prior period balances have been  reclassified to conform with the current period
financial  statement  presentation.  The results of operations for the three and
nine-month  periods  ended June 30, 2001 are not  necessarily  indicative of the
results  for the fiscal  year ending  September  30, 2001 or any future  interim
period.

     EMCORE has two reportable operating segments: the systems-related  business
unit and the materials-related  business unit. The systems-related business unit
designs,  develops and manufactures  tools and  manufacturing  processes used to
fabricate compound  semiconductor wafer and devices.  This business unit assists
our customers with device design,  process development and optimal configuration
of TurboDisc(R)  production systems.  Revenues for the systems-related  business
unit consist of sales of EMCORE's TurboDisc  production systems as well as spare
parts and services related to these systems. The materials-related business unit
designs,  develops and manufactures compound semiconductor  materials.  Revenues
for the  materials-related  business unit include sales of semiconductor wafers,
devices  and  process  development  technology.  EMCORE's  vertically-integrated
product offering allows it to provide a complete compound semiconductor solution
to its  customers.  The  segments  reported  are the segments of the Company for
which  separate  financial  information  is available and for which gross profit
amounts are  evaluated  regularly  by  executive  management  in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing  performance.  The Company does not allocate
assets or operating expenses to the individual operating segments.  Services are
performed for each other however there are no  intercompany  sales  transactions
between the two  operating  segments.  Available  segment  information  has been
presented in the Statements of Operations.


NOTE 2.  Joint Ventures

     In May 1999,  General Electric Lighting and EMCORE formed GELcore,  a joint
venture to develop and market High  Brightness  Light-Emitting  Diode ("HB LED")
lighting  products.  General Electric  Lighting and EMCORE have agreed that this
joint venture will be the exclusive  vehicle for each party's  participation  in
solid state lighting. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, EMCORE has
a 49%  non-controlling  interest in the GELcore  venture  and  accounts  for its
investment  under the equity method of accounting.  In fiscal year 2000,  EMCORE
issued  non-qualified  stock options to employees of the joint venture at a cost
determined by Black-Scholes of $835,000. In fiscal year 2001, EMCORE recorded an
additional $462,000 which represents an additional charge related to the vesting
of  these  non-qualified  stock  options.  In April  2001,  EMCORE  invested  an
additional  $3.9 million into this joint  venture.  For the three and nine-month
periods ended June 30, 2001,  EMCORE  recognized a loss of $1.4 million and $3.6
million, respectively,  related to this joint venture which has been recorded as
a component  of other  income and  expense.  As of June 30,  2001,  EMCORE's net
investment in this joint venture amounted to $10.3 million.

     In March 1997, EMCORE and a subsidiary of Uniroyal  Technology  Corporation
("UTCI")  formed  Uniroyal  Optoelectronics  LLC  (UOE),  a  joint  venture,  to
manufacture,  sell and distribute HB LED wafers and package-ready devices. Under
the terms of the  joint  venture  agreement,  EMCORE  had a 49%  non-controlling
interest in this joint venture and accounts for its investment  under the equity
method of accounting.  For the three and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2001,
EMCORE recognized a loss of $1.3 million and $6.9 million, respectively, related
to this joint  venture,  which has been  recorded as a component of other income
and expense.  As of June 30, 2001, EMCORE's net investment in this joint venture
amounted  to $3.0  million,  and its  ownership  interest  in the joint  venture
dropped to 36% because of capital contributions solely funded by UTCI. On August
2, 2001,  EMCORE sold its interest in UOE to UTCI for  approximately 2.0 million
shares of UTCI common stock (see Note 10).




EMCORE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 3.  Debt Facilities

     On May 7, 2001,  EMCORE  completed  the private  placement  of $175 million
aggregate principal amount of 5% convertible subordinated notes due in 2006. The
notes are convertible  into EMCORE common stock at a conversion  price of $48.76
per share.  EMCORE is using the proceeds of this offering for general  corporate
purposes,  including capital  expenditures,  working capital,  funding its joint
venture and for research and development.  In addition, EMCORE may use a portion
of  the  proceeds  of  the  offering  to  strategically  acquire  or  invest  in
complementary businesses, products or technology, either directly or through its
joint venture.


NOTE 4. Commitments and Contingencies

     On April 25, 2001, EMCORE entered into a settlement agreement with Rockwell
Technologies,  LLC which  released  EMCORE  from any  liability  relating to our
manufacture  and  past  sales of  epitaxial  wafers,  chips  and  devices  under
Rockwell's US Patent No. 4,368,098.


NOTE 5.  Earnings Per Share

     EMCORE  calculates  earnings per share under the  provision of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per share". Basic earnings per
common share were calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of common  stock  shares  outstanding  during the period.  Diluted  earnings per
common share were calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of shares and dilutive potential shares  outstanding  during the year,  assuming
conversion  of the potential  shares at the  beginning of the period  presented.
Shares  issuable upon conversion of stock options and other  performance  awards
have been included in the diluted calculation of weighted-average  shares to the
extent that the assumed  issuance of such shares  would have been  dilutive,  as
illustrated  below. The following table reconciles the number of shares utilized
in the  earnings per share  calculations  for the three and  nine-month  periods
ending June 30, 2001 and 2000,  respectively.

NOTE 8.  Related Parties

     In March 1997, EMCORE and a subsidiary of Uniroyal  Technology  Corporation
formed UOE, a joint venture,  to manufacture,  sell and distribute HB LED wafers
and package-ready  devices (see Note 2). During the three and nine-month periods
ended June 30, 2001,  sales made to UOE amounted to  approximately  $2.5 million
and $3.4 million  respectively.  During the three and  nine-month  periods ended
June 30, 2000, sales made to UOE amounted to approximately $0.4 million and $3.6
million   respectively.   As  of  June  30,  2001,  EMCORE  had  an  outstanding
related-party   receivable  of  $3.0  million  and  deferred   gross  profit  of
approximately  $1.9  million  on  such  sales  to the  extent  of its  ownership
interest.  On August 2, 2001,  EMCORE made a $5.0  million  aggregate  principal
amount  bridge loan to UTCI,  the  proceeds of which were to be used by UTCI for
working capital and other corporate purposes (see Note 10).

     The  President  of  Hakuto  Co.  Ltd.   ("Hakuto"),   the  Company's  Asian
distributor, is a member of EMCORE's Board of Directors and Hakuto is a minority
shareholder of EMCORE.  During the three and  nine-month  periods ended June 30,
2001, sales made through Hakuto amounted to approximately  $0.3 million and $8.1
million,  respectively.  During the three and nine-month  periods ended June 30,
2000, sales made through Hakuto amounted to approximately $3.2 million and $10.5
million respectively.


                                                                               8





EMCORE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE  9.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In December 1999, the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101. ("SAB 101") "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements,"  which  provides  guidance on the  recognition,  presentation,  and
disclosure  of  revenue in  financial  statements  filed  with the SEC.  SAB 101
outlines the basic  criteria that must be met to recognize  revenue and provides
guidance for disclosures  related to revenue  recognition  policies.  During the
period,  EMCORE recognized  revenue from system sales upon shipment,  when title
passed to the customer.  Subsequent to product  shipment,  EMCORE incurs certain
installation costs at the customer's  facility that are estimated and accrued at
the time the sale is  recognized.  SAB 101 requires  EMCORE to defer revenue and
costs related to this installation  portion until the service is completed.  Had
EMCORE  adopted  SAB 101  during the  three-month  period  ended June 30,  2001,
management  has  determined the impact of such adoption would have resulted in a
deferral of approximately  $4.8 million of system revenue and an increase in net
loss of approximately  $3.1 million.  Generally,  system  installation takes 2-4
weeks,  therefore,  revenue  deferral would be  predominantly  recognized in the
ensuing  quarter and the adoption of SAB 101 would be  considered  only a timing
difference  predominately on systems shipped during the last month of a quarter.
Management does not anticipate that SAB 101 will have an effect on the Company's
material and device revenues. As required,  EMCORE plans to adopt SAB 101 during
the fourth  quarter  of fiscal  year 2001 with an  effective  date of October 1,
2000.  EMCORE expects the cumulative  adjustment as a result of this  accounting
change to be approximately $4.0 million.

     In July 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board  ("FASB"),  issued
Statement  of  Financial   Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  141,  "Business
Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Statement No.
141 requires that all business  combinations  initiated  after June 30, 2001, be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  In addition,  it further
clarifies the criteria for  recognition  of intangible  assets  separately  from
goodwill. Statement No. 142 establishes new standards for goodwill acquired in a
business  combination  and  eliminates  the  amortization  of goodwill  over its
estimated  useful  life.  Rather,  goodwill  will now be tested  for  impairment
annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment,  by
applying a fair value based test.  EMCORE expects to adopt this statement during
the first  quarter  of fiscal  2002.  As of June 30,  2001,  EMCORE  had $2.8 of
unamortized  goodwill  resulting  from prior  acquisitions.  EMCORE  will record
approximately $155,000 of additional goodwill amortization through the remainder
of fiscal year 2001.


NOTE 10.  Subsequent Events - Joint Venture

     On August 2, 2001, EMCORE sold its minority  ownership  position in the UOE
joint  venture to Uniroyal  Technology  Corporation  ("UTCI")  in  exchange  for
approximately  2 million shares of UTCI common stock.  The Company will record a
gain on the disposition of its interest in UOE of approximately $10.4 million in
its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2001.

     The Company's  reported net loss for the year ended  September 30, 2000 and
the nine months  ended June 30, 2001 would have been reduced by $9.3 million and
$8.8 million,  respectively, if the disposition had occurred on the first day of
each respective  period. For the year ended September 30, 2000, the reduction in
net loss is  comprised  of a  reduction  in equity  in losses of  unconsolidated
affiliates of $7.8 million and the recognition of $1.5 million in deferred gross
profit on sales of  equipment  to UOE.  For the nine months ended June 30, 2001,
the  reduction  in net loss is  comprised  of a reduction in equity in losses of
unconsolidated affiliates of $6.9 million and the recognition of $1.9 million in
deferred  gross profit on sales of equipment to UOE. The pro forma  statement of
operations  figures above do not include the  approximate  gain on sale of $10.4
million.  Had the disposition of the Company's  interest in UOE occurred on June
30, 2001,  the impact of the  disposition  on the Company's  balance sheet would
have been to increase  marketable  securities by  approximately  $13.4  million,
reduce  investments in  unconsolidated  affiliates by  approximately $3 million,
reduce  deferred  gains on  sales to UOE by $1.9  million,  and a  reduction  in
accumulated  deficit of approximately  $12.3 million,  which is inclusive of the
approximate $10.4 million gain on disposition of UOE.

     The unaudited pro forma  financial  information  in the paragraph  above is
based  upon  available  information  and  certain  assumptions  that  management
believes are  reasonable.  The unaudited pro forma  consolidated  financial data
above does not purport to represent what EMCORE's  financial position or results
of operations would have been had the UOE disposition in fact occurred as of the
date or at the  beginning  of the  periods  presented,  or to  project  EMCORE's
financial position or results of operations for any future date or period.

     On August 2, 2001,  EMCORE made a $5.0 million  aggregate  principal amount
bridge loan (the "Bridge  Loan") to UTCI,  the proceeds of which were to be used
by UTCI for working capital and other corporate purposes.  The Bridge Loan bears
interest  at the prime rate and  matures  on the  earlier to occur of the second
anniversary  of the date of the Bridge  Loan and the  closing of the sale of the
adhesives  and  sealants  business of Uniroyal  Engineered  Products  L.L.C.,  a
subsidiary of UTCI,  which sale is expected to close by September 20, 2001.  The
Bridge Loan is guaranteed by UOE and several other  subsidiaries of UTCI, and it
is  fully  secured  by a lien on,  among  other  things,  UOE's  cash,  accounts
receivable and a portion of UOE's equipment. The Bridge Loan is also convertible
under certain circumstances into UTCI common stock at the Company's option.

                                                                               9

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW:

     EMCORE   Corporation   designs,    develops   and   manufactures   compound
semiconductor  wafers and devices and is a leading developer and manufacturer of
the tools and manufacturing  processes used to fabricate compound  semiconductor
wafers and devices. Compound semiconductors are composed of two or more elements
and  usually  consist of a metal,  such as gallium,  aluminum  or indium,  and a
non-metal such as arsenic,  phosphorus or nitrogen. Many compound semiconductors
have unique physical  properties  that enable  electrons to move through them at
least four times faster than  through  silicon-based  devices and are  therefore
well suited to serve the growing need for efficient, high performance electronic
systems.

     EMCORE  offers a  comprehensive  portfolio  of products and systems for the
rapidly expanding  broadband,  wireless  communications and solid state lighting
markets.  We have developed  extensive  materials  science expertise and process
technology to address our customers' needs.  Customers can take advantage of our
vertically  integrated solutions approach by purchasing  custom-designed  wafers
and devices from us, or by manufacturing their own devices in-house using one of
our  metal  organic  chemical  vapor  deposition  ("MOCVD")  production  systems
configured  to their  specific  needs.  Our  products  and  systems  enable  our
customers  to cost  effectively  introduce  new and  improved  high  performance
products to the market faster in high volumes.

     The growth in our business is driven by the widespread  deployment of fiber
optic  networks,  introduction  of new  wireless  networks and  services,  rapid
build-out  of  satellite  communication  systems,  increasing  use of more power
efficient  lighting  sources,  increasing use of electronics in automobiles  and
emergence  of  advanced  consumer  electronic  applications.  Also,  the growing
demands for higher  volumes of a broad range of higher  performance  devices has
resulted in  manufacturers  increasingly  outsourcing  their needs for  compound
semiconductor wafers and devices. Our expertise in materials science and process
technology  provides us with a  competitive  advantage to  manufacture  compound
semiconductor  wafers and devices in high volumes. We have increased revenues at
a compound  annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 30% over the three fiscal years ended
September  30,  2000,  from $47.8  million in fiscal  1997 to $104.5  million in
fiscal 2000.

                                                                              10




Wafers and Devices

     EMCORE offers a broad array of compound  semiconductor  wafers and devices,
including  optical   components  and  components  for  use  in  high-speed  data
communications and telecommunications  networks,  radio frequency materials ("RF
materials") used in mobile  communications  products such as wireless modems and
handsets,  solar  cells that power  commercial  and  military  satellites,  high
brightness  light-emitting  diodes ("HB LEDs") for several lighting markets, and
magneto resistive sensors ("MR sensors") for various automotive applications.

     o    Optical Components and Modules.  Our family of vertical cavity surface
          emitting lasers ("VCSELs") and VCSEL array transceiver and transponder
          products,  as well  as our  photodiode  array  components,  serve  the
          rapidly  growing  high-speed  data  communications   network  markets,
          including the Gigabit  Ethernet,  FibreChannel,  Infiniband,  and Very
          Short Reach  OC-192,  the emerging Very Short Reach OC-768 and related
          markets.  Our strategy is to manufacture high cost optical  components
          and subassemblies  in-house,  using our proprietary  technologies,  to
          reduce the overall cost of our transceiver and transponder modules.

          pHEMT  materials  that are used by our  wireless  customers  for power
          amplifiers for GSM, TDMA, CDMA and the emerging 3G multiband  wireless
          handsets.

     o    Solar  Cells.  Solar  cells are  typically  the  largest  single  cost
          component of a  satellite.  Our  compound  semiconductor  solar cells,
          which  are used to power  commercial  and  military  satellites,  have
          achieved industry-leading efficiencies. Solar cell efficiency dictates
          the  electrical  power of the  satellite and bears upon the weight and
          launch costs of the satellite.  We began shipping our triple  junction
          solar cells in December 2000.


      o   HB LEDs. Through our joint venture with General Electric Lighting,  we
          provide  advanced  HB LED  technology  used  in  devices  and in  such
          applications as traffic lights,  miniature lamps, automotive lighting,
          and flat panel displays.

Benefits of Compound Semiconductors

     Recent advances in information technologies have created a growing need for
efficient,  high-performance  electronic  systems  that  operate  at  very  high
frequencies,  have  increased  storage  capacity and  computational  and display
capabilities and can be produced  cost-effectively in commercial volumes. In the
past,  electronic  systems  manufacturers  have  relied on  advances  in silicon
semiconductor  technology  to meet many of these  demands.  However,  the newest
generation  of  high-performance   electronic  and  optoelectronic  applications
require certain functions that are generally not achievable using  silicon-based
components.

     Compound  semiconductors have emerged as an enabling technology to meet the
complex  requirements of today's  advanced  information  systems.  Many compound
semiconductor  materials have unique physical properties that allow electrons to
move at least four times faster than through silicon-based  devices.  Advantages
of compound semiconductor devices over silicon devices include:

     o    operation at higher speeds;

     o    lower power consumption;

     o    less noise and distortion; and

     o    optoelectronic properties that enable these devices to emit and detect
          light.

     Although compound semiconductors are more expensive to manufacture than the
more traditional  silicon-based  semiconductors,  electronics  manufacturers are
increasingly integrating compound semiconductors into their products in order to
achieve  the  higher  performance  demands of today's  electronic  products  and
systems.


Strategy

     Our objective is to  capitalize on our position as a leading  developer and
manufacturer  of compound  semiconductor  tools and  manufacturing  processes to
become the leading supplier of compound  semiconductor  wafers and devices.  The
key elements of our strategy are to:

     o  apply our core materials and  manufacturing  expertise  across  multiple
        product applications;

     o  target high growth market opportunities;

     o  continue to recognize greater value for our core technology;

     o  partner with key industry participants; and

     o  continue  our  investment in research and  development to maintain
        technology leadership.


Recent Developments and Highlights of the Quarter:

     On August 6, 2001, EMCORE announced the commercial production of its new 15
Gbps parallel optical  interconnect for high-speed data links,  very short reach
OC-192  optical  links,  and  board-to-board   and   shelf-to-shelf   high-speed
interconnects for optical  backplanes.  The modules perform  logic-to-light  and
light-to-logic  conversions  for data  transmission  over multimode fiber ribbon
cable,  at a wavelength  of 850nm and a power  consumption  of typically  just 2
watts for the pair.  EMCORE also announced the  development of a VSR transponder
that is pluggable  and compliant  with the  industry-wide  300 pin  multi-source
agreement and with the Optical Internetworking Forum's Implementation Agreements
for SERDES-framer  interface (SFI-4) and VSR OC-192 interfaces.  The transponder
is anticipated to be in commercial production in September 2001.


                                                                              12




     On August 2, 2001,  EMCORE  sold its  minority  ownership  position  in the
Uniroyal Optoelectronics,  LLC joint venture to Uniroyal Technology Corporation,
(NMS: UTCI) and received  approximately  2.0 million shares of UTCI common stock
as  consideration  for the  transaction.  EMCORE  expects to  continue  to be an
important  vendor of MOCVD  equipment to Uniroyal  Optoelectronics,  LLC. EMCORE
will report a gain on the transaction in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001.

     On May 7, 2001,  EMCORE  completed  the private  placement  of $175 million
aggregate principal amount of 5% convertible subordinated notes due in 2006. The
notes are convertible  into EMCORE common stock at a conversion  price of $48.76
per share.  EMCORE is using the proceeds of this offering for general  corporate
purposes,  including capital  expenditures,  working capital,  funding its joint
venture and for research and development.  In addition, EMCORE may use a portion
of  the  proceeds  of  the  offering  to  strategically  acquire  or  invest  in
complementary businesses, products or technology, either directly or through its
joint venture.

     Blaze  Network  Products  and Cognet  MicroSystems,  a  division  of Intel,
selected  EMCORE's Coarse  Wavelength  Division  Multiplexing  (CWDM) VCSELs for
high-speed data  communications.  With these VCSELs, Blaze plans to be the first
to market with the smallest  pluggable 10 Gigabit  transceiver  in the industry.
Cognet will use the short wavelength VCSELs for extending the reach of multimode
fibers.

     EMCORE  expanded its production  technology  offerings with the addition of
the Enterprise  300LDM for datacom and telecom  applications  and the Enterprise
450 series for wireless  communications  and solid state lighting  applications.
These  new  tools  serve as the  enabling  technology  for  EMCORE's  electronic
materials and optical device product offerings and will enhance EMCORE's ability
to significantly improve device-manufacturing  economics. The tools decrease the
cost of ownership by maximizing the efficiency of material usage, reducing cycle
times and achieving materials quality that enables next generation devices.

     EMCORE's Electronic Materials Division achieved two significant  milestones
as a high volume supplier of HBT and pHEMT  transistor  materials for high-speed
wireless communications.  EMCORE reported the shipment of a record 15,000 6-inch
HBT and pHEMT transistor wafers in a 12-month period.  The Electronic  Materials
Division  also  earned  the  prestigious  QS-9000  certification  for its  wafer
manufacturing  activities  based  on its  commitment  to  quality  products  and
services.

     EMCORE  has  generated  a  significant  portion  of its sales to  customers
outside the United States.  EMCORE  anticipates  that  international  sales will
continue to account for a significant portion of revenues. Historically,  EMCORE
has  received  substantially  all  payments  for  products  and services in U.S.
dollars and therefore EMCORE does not currently  anticipate that fluctuations in
any currency will have a material  effect on its financial  condition or results
of operations.

     As of June  30,  2001,  EMCORE  had an  order  backlog  of  $140.0  million
scheduled to be shipped  through June 30, 2002.  This  represents an increase of
12% or $15.0 million since September 30, 2000.  EMCORE receives  partial advance
payments or irrevocable letters of credit on most production system orders.

     EMCORE has two reportable operating segments: the systems-related  business
unit and the materials-related  business unit. The systems-related business unit
designs,  develops and manufactures  tools and  manufacturing  processes used to
fabricate compound  semiconductor wafer and devices.  This business unit assists
our customers with device design,  process development and optimal configuration
of TurboDisc production systems.  Revenues for the systems-related business unit
consist of sales of EMCORE's TurboDisc production systems as well as spare parts
and  services  related to these  ystems.  The  materials-related  business  unit
designs,  develops and manufactures compound semiconductor  materials.  Revenues
for the  materials-related  business unit include sales of semiconductor wafers,
devices, packaged devices, modules and process development technology.  EMCORE's
vertically-integrated  product offering allows it to provide a complete compound
semiconductor solution to its customers.  The segments reported are the segments
of EMCORE for which  separate  financial  information is available and for which
gross profit amounts are evaluated regularly by executive management in deciding
how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. EMCORE does not allocate
assets or operating expenses to the individual operating segments.  Services are
performed for each other however there are no  intercompany  sales  transactions
between the two operating segments.

                                                                              14



Comparison of three and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000

     Revenues.  EMCORE's  revenues  increased  76% or $22.9  million  from $30.0
million for the three- month period ended June 30, 2000 to $52.9 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2001. For the nine-month period ended June 30,
2001,  revenues  increased  100% or $70.4  million from $70.4 million in 2000 to
$140.9 million in 2001. On a sequential  basis,  revenues  reached record levels
for the sixth  consecutive  quarter and increased 10% or $5.0 million from $47.9
million  reported in the prior  quarter.  This  increase in revenues is a direct
result of new material technologies being introduced that enable next generation
devices. For the nine-month period,  systems-related  revenues increased 129% or
$55.3  million  from $42.9  million to $98.2  million.  On a  sequential  basis,
systems-related  revenues  increased  20% or $6.5  million  from  $32.5  million
reported in the prior quarter.  The number of MOCVD  production  systems shipped
during the  nine-month  period  increased  116% from 31 in 2000 to 67 systems in
2001.  Management  expects fiscal year 2001 system shipments will total 90 which
represents a 90%  increase  over fiscal year 2000  shipments.  Materials-related
revenues for the  nine-month  period  increased  55% or $15.1 million from $27.5
million to $42.7  million.  On a sequential  basis,  materials-related  revenues
decreased 10% or $1.5 million from $15.4 million  reported in the prior quarter.
This  revenue  decrease  was  primarily  related to lower sales of pHEMT and HBT
epitaxial wafers as it relates to our wireless technology business. On an annual
basis,  sales of solar  cells,  pHEMT and HBT  epitaxial  wafers and VCSELs have
increased 12%, 30% and 323%, respectively,  from the prior year. As a percentage
of revenues,  systems and materials-related  revenues accounted for 61% and 39%,
respectively,  for the  nine-month  period  ended June 30, 2000 and 70% and 30%,
respectively, for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2001. International sales
accounted for 38% of revenues for the nine-month  period ended June 30, 2000 and
45% of revenues for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2001.

     Gross  Profit.  EMCORE's  gross profit  increased  75% or $9.4 million from
$12.5  million for the three- month period ended June 30, 2000 to $21.9  million
for the three-month  period ended June 30, 2001. For the nine-month period ended
June 30, 2001, gross profit increased 99% or $28.9 million from $29.1 million in
2000 to $58.0 million in 2001. On a sequential basis, gross profit increased 12%
or $2.3 million from $19.6  million.  For the  nine-month  period,  gross profit
earned on  systems-related  revenues  increased 148% or $26.5 million from $17.9
million to $44.4  million.  This is due  primarily  to the  overall  increase in
sales, as well as, improved  manufacturing  efficiencies.  Component and service
related revenues continue to increase since EMCORE's production system installed
base now exceeds 400 MOCVD  systems.  For the  nine-month  period,  gross profit
earned on  materials-related  revenues  increased 21% or $2.4 million from $11.3
million to $13.6 million.  Management expects gross profits on materials-related
sales to increase due to recent yield  improvements in  manufacturing  processes
and expected increased production output due to EMCORE's strong order backlog of
material-related products.

     Selling,  General and Administrative.  Selling,  general and administrative
expenses  increased by 20% or $1.2 million from $5.9 million for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2000 to $7.1 million for the three-month period ended June
30, 2001. For the  nine-month  period ended June 30, 2001,  selling  general and
administrative  expenses  increased  36% or $5.7  million  from $15.9 in 2000 to
$21.6  million  in  2001.   On  a  sequential   basis,   selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses decreased 6% or $0.5 million from $7.6 million incurred
in the prior quarter. A significant  portion of the year-over-year  increase was
due to headcount  increases in marketing and sales personnel to support domestic
and foreign  markets and other  administrative  headcount  additions  to sustain
internal  support.  The decrease in actual  expenses  from the prior quarter was
largely due to cost control  programs  placed into  service.  As a percentage of
revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 23% for the
nine-month  period  ended June 30, 2000 to 15% for the  nine-month  period ended
June 30, 2001.  On a sequential  basis,  as a  percentage  of revenue,  selling,
general and  administrative  expenses  decreased  from 16% realized in the prior
quarter to 13%.

     Goodwill Amortization.  Goodwill of $3.1 million was recorded in connection
with our acquisitions of Analytical Solutions, Inc. and Training Solutions, Inc.
in  January  2001.  During  the  three  months  ended  June 30,  2001,  goodwill
amortization totaled $0.2 million.

                                                                              15



     Research and Development.  Research and development expenses increased 132%
or $7.9 million from $6.0 million in the three-month  period ended June 30, 2000
to  $13.9  million  in the  three  month-period  ended  June 30,  2001.  For the
nine-month period ended June 30, 2001,  research and development  increased 154%
or $23.7  million  from  $15.4  million in 2000 to $39.1  million in 2001.  On a
sequential  basis,  research  and  development  expenses  increased  16% or $1.9
million from $12.0 million incurred in the last quarter.  To maintain growth and
to  continue  to pursue  market  leadership  in  materials  science  technology,
management  expects the amount to continue to invest a significant amount of its
resources in research and development. EMCORE expects the amount of research and
development  expenditures  to continue at similar  levels for the  remainder  of
fiscal year 2001 as EMCORE  finalizes the development and  commercialization  of
new fiber optic products,  including long  wavelength  VCSELs  (vertical  cavity
surface emitting lasers),  optical subassemblies and modules. As a percentage of
revenue,  research and  development  expenses  increased  from 25% for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 to 26% for the three months ended June 30, 2001.

     Interest income,  net. For the three-month  period ended June 30, 2001, net
interest income decreased $1.9 million from $2.0 million in 2000 to $68,000. For
the  nine-month  period ended June 30, 2001,  interest  expense  decreased  $0.3
million from $2.6  million in 2000 to $2.4 million in 2001.  The decrease in net
interest income is the result of additional  interest  expense incurred from the
5% convertible subordinated notes due 2006.

     Other income, net. Other income includes a net gain of $5.9 million related
to the settlement of litigation, recorded in March 2001.

     Equity  in  unconsolidated  affiliates.   Since  EMCORE  does  not  have  a
controlling economic and voting interest in its joint ventures,  EMCORE accounts
for these joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.

     For the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 2001,  EMCORE  incurred a net loss
of  approximately  $1.4 million related to the GELcore joint venture,  up from a
$1.2 million loss  incurred in the quarter  ended June 30, 2000. On a sequential
basis,  GELcore's  net loss  increased  63% or $0.6  million  from $0.9  million
incurred last quarter.  On April 11, 2001,  EMCORE  invested an additional  $3.9
million into this joint venture. As of June 30, 2001, EMCORE's net investment in
this joint venture amounted to $10.3 million.

     EMCORE also incurred a net loss of  approximately  $1.3 million  related to
the UOE joint  venture  in the  quarter  ended June 30,  2001,  down from a $1.7
million loss incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2000. On a sequential basis,
UOE's net loss  decreased  54% or $1.5 million from $2.8 million  incurred  last
quarter.  As of June 30, 2001,  EMCORE's net  investment  in this joint  venture
amounted to $3.0 million and Emcore's  ownership  interest in the joint  venture
dropped to 36%. On August 2, 2001, Emcore sold its minority  ownership  position
in this joint  venture to  Uniroyal  Technology  Corporation  and  received  2.0
million shares of UTCI common stock as consideration for the transaction.

     Income  Taxes.  As a result of its losses,  EMCORE did not incur any income
tax  expense in both the three and  nine-month  periods  ended June 30, 2001 and
2000.

     EMCORE has  experienced  and expects to continue to experience  significant
fluctuations  in quarterly  results.  Factors which have had an influence on and
may continue to influence  EMCORE's  operating  results in a particular  quarter
include, but are not limited to, the timing of receipt of orders,  cancellation,
rescheduling  or delay in product  shipment or supply  deliveries,  product mix,
competitive pricing pressures,  EMCORE's ability to design, manufacture and ship
products on a cost  effective and timely basis,  including the ability of EMCORE
to achieve and  maintain  acceptable  production  yields for wafers and devices,
regional  economic  conditions  and the  announcement  and  introduction  of new
products  by EMCORE  and by its  competitors.  The  timing of sales of  EMCORE's
TurboDisc  production  systems may cause  substantial  fluctuations in quarterly
operating  results  due to the  substantially  higher  per  unit  price of these
products  relative to EMCORE's  other  products.  If the compound  semiconductor
industry  experiences  downturns  or  slowdowns,  EMCORE's  business,  financial
condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

                                                                              16



Liquidity and Capital Resources

     EMCORE  has  funded  operations  to date  through  sales  of  equity,  bank
borrowings,  subordinated  debt and revenues  from product  sales.  In May 2001,
EMCORE issued $175.0 million of 5% convertible  subordinated  notes due in 2006.
In  June  1999,   EMCORE  completed  a  secondary  public  offering  and  raised
approximately  $52.0  million,  net of issuance  costs.  In March  2000,  EMCORE
completed an additional public offering and raised approximately $127.8 million,
net of  issuance  costs.  As of June 30,  2001,  EMCORE had  working  capital of
approximately $215.4 million, including $159.6 million in cash, cash equivalents
and marketable securities.

     Cash used for operating  activities  approximated  $38.9 million during the
nine-month  period ended June 30, 2001 as a result of  increases  in  inventory,
accounts   receivable  and  other  current  assets.  The  increase  in  accounts
receivable  was within  expectations  of the 100%  increase in revenues from the
prior year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2001 net cash used for investment
activities  amounted to $114.5 million.  EMCORE's capital  expenditures  totaled
$80.8  million,  which was used  primarily  for  capacity  expansion at both New
Jersey  and  New  Mexico's  manufacturing  facilities.   EMCORE  quadrupled  its
production  capacity for GaInP HBTs and pHEMTs to meet  wireless and fiber optic
market  demands.  Completed  in  January  2001,  EMCORE  tripled  its  cleanroom
manufacturing  capacity in New Mexico by adding on an  additional  36,000 square
feet to the existing  50,000 square foot building  which houses  EMCORE's  solar
cell,  optical  components and networking  products.  EMCORE's  planned  capital
expenditures  are expected to total  approximately  $90.0 million  during fiscal
year 2001.  Capital  spending in fiscal year 2001 also  includes the purchase of
and continued  upgrades to  manufacturing  facilities,  continued  investment in
analytical  and diagnostic  research and  development  equipment,  upgrading and
purchasing  computer equipment and the manufacture of TurboDisc MOCVD production
systems used internally for production of materials-related  products.  EMCORE's
net  investment in marketable  securities  increased by $27.4 million during the
nine months ended June 30, 2001.  Net cash provided by financing  activities for
the nine months ended June 30, 2001 amounted to approximately $184.4 million. On
May 7, 2001,  EMCORE completed the private  placement of $175 million  aggregate
principal  amount of 5% convertible  subordinated  notes due 2006. The notes are
convertible  into EMCORE common stock at a conversion price of $48.76 per share.
EMCORE  intends  to use the  proceeds  of the  offering  for  general  corporate
purposes,  including capital  expenditures,  working capital,  funding its joint
ventures and for research and development. In addition, EMCORE may use a portion
of  the  proceeds  of  the  offering  to  strategically  acquire  or  invest  in
complementary businesses, products or technology, either directly or through its
joint venture.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In July 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board  ("FASB"),  issued
Statement  of  Financial   Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  141,  "Business
Combinations" and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Statement No.
141 requires that all business  combinations  initiated  after June 30, 2001, be
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  In addition,  it further
clarifies the criteria for  recognition  of intangible  assets  separately  from
goodwill. Statement No. 142 establishes new standards for goodwill acquired in a
business  combination  and  eliminates  the  amortization  of goodwill  over its
estimated  useful  life.  Rather,  goodwill  will now be tested  for  impairment
annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment,  by
applying a fair value based test.  EMCORE expects to adopt this statement during
the first  quarter  of fiscal  2002.  As of June 30,  2001,  EMCORE  had $2.8 of
unamortized  goodwill  resulting  from prior  acquisitions.  EMCORE  will record
approximately $155,000 of additional goodwill amortization through the remainder
of fiscal year 2001.



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     During the nine months ended June 30, 2001,  EMCORE  invested in high-grade
corporate debt, commercial paper, government securities and other investments at
fixed interest rates that vary by security.  No other material changes in market
risk were identified.

                                                                              17

subject to certain risks,  uncertainties  and assumptions  that are difficult to
predict.  Therefore,  our actual  results could differ  materially and adversely
from those  expressed in any  forward-looking  statements as a result of various
factors, including, but not limited to:


     o    rapid growth which places a strain on our resources;
     o    our expectation of continued operating losses;
     o    rapidtechnology  changes in the compound  semiconductor  industry that
          require us to continually  improve existing products,  design and sell
          new products and manage the costs of research and development in order
          to  effectively  compete;
     o    fluctuations in our quarterly  operating  results which may negatively
          impact our stock price;
     o    the fact that   our   joint  venture partner, who have control of  the
          venture, may make  decisions  that we do   not agree with and  thereby
          adversely affect our net income;
     o    our  exposure  to   export   risks  since   a large  percentage of our
          revenues are from foreign sales;
     o    the  potential  for us  to lose  sales  if  we are  unable  to  obtain
          government authorization to export our products;
     o    the fact that our products   are  difficult to  manufacture  and small
          manufacturing  defects can adversely affect our production  yields and
          our operating results;
     o    lengthy  sales and  qualifications  cycles for  our  products that are
          typical of our  industry and,  in many cases,  require  us to invest a
          substantial amount of time and funds before we receive orders;
     o    industry  demand for skilled  employees,  particularly  scientific and
          technical  personnel  with  compound  semiconductor  experience  which
          exceeds the number of skilled personnel available;
     o    protecting our trade secrets and obtaining patent  protection which is
          critical to our ability to compete for  business;
     o    licenses  that may be required to  continue  to  manufacture  and sell
          certain of our compound  semiconductor wafers and devices, the expense
          of  which  may  adversely   affect  our  results  of   operations;
     o    interruptions  in our business and a significant loss of sales to Asia
          which may result if our primary Asian distributor fails to effectively
          market and service our products;
     o    our management's stock ownership which gives them the power to control
          business  affairs and prevent a takeover  that could be  beneficial to
          unaffiliated shareholders;
     o    the  consequences  of  unsuccessful   control  of  the  hazardous  raw
          materials  used in our  manufacturing  process  which could  result in
          costly remediation fees,  penalties or damages under environmental and
          safety  regulations;
     o    our business or our stock price which could be  adversely  affected by
          issuance of preferred  stock;
     o    certain  provisions of New Jersey Law and our charter which may make a
          takeover  of our  company  difficult  even if such  takeover  could be
          beneficial to some of our shareholders;
     o    fluctuations  in the price of our common  stock which may  continue in
          the future.
