NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(1) BUSINESS
Altron Incorporated (the "Company") is a leading contract manufacturer of
interconnect products used in advanced electronic equipment. The Company
manufactures complex products in the mid-volume sector of the electronic
interconnect industry including custom-designed backplanes, surface mount

in the telecommunication, data communication, computer, industrial and medical
industries located in the United States and Europe.
(2) INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such
periods. The unaudited results of operations for the quarter ended March 30,
1996 are not necessarily an indication of the results of operations for the
full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Altron Systems Corporation and
Altron Securities Corporation. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Printed circuit boards manufactured by the Company and used in its assembly
operations are included in value added contract manufacturing sales. Printed
circuit board sales represent sales to third parties.
For information as to the significant accounting policies followed by the
Company and other financial and operating information, see the Company's Form
10-K for the year ended December 30, 1995, as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (Commission File No. 0-13230). These interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
included in the Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales for the first quarter of 1996 increased 35% to $44.1 million from
net sales of $32.7 million for the same quarter of 1995. The increase was
primarily the result of increased shipments of value added assembly products
to the Company's largest customers in the communication, computer and
industrial segments of the electronics industry. The Company's largest
customer in each of the first quarters of 1996 and 1995 was Motorola Inc.,
which accounted for 16% and 17% of net sales for each quarter, respectively.
Value added contract manufacturing sales for the first quarter of 1996
increased 39% to $33.1 million or approximately 75% of net sales, compared to
$23.9 million or 73% of net sales in the first quarter of 1995. Printed
circuit board sales for the first quarter of 1996 were approximately 25% of
net sales compared to 27% of net sales in the first quarter of 1995.
Gross margin as a percentage of net sales for the first quarter of 1996
increased to 24.2% as compared to 22.7% in 1995. Gross profit for the first
quarter of 1996 increased 44% to $10.7 million from $7.4 million in 1995. The
increase in the Company's gross profit resulted primarily from absorption of
fixed costs due to the higher volume of shipments and was also due to
manufacturing efficiencies gained through productivity and product yield
improvements.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
decreased to 7.1% in the first quarter of 1996 from 7.9% for the same quarter
of 1995. The decline in selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales was principally the result of higher net sales.
Other income increased $290,000 in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to
the first quarter of 1995 principally as a result of receiving net proceeds of
approximately $24.3 million from the public offering of the Company's common
stock during the second quarter of 1995. Interest expense was $30,000 lower in
the first quarter of 1996 than 1995 as a result of reduced outstanding
borrowings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $58.1 million compared
to $52.3 million at December 30, 1995. Cash and cash equivalents and short-
term investments were $35.3 million at March 30, 1996 and $30.4 million at
December 30, 1995. Long-term investments at March 30, 1996 were $4.8 million
compared to $5.0 million at December 30, 1995.
At March 30, 1996, the Company had a $5,000,000 unsecured line of credit
with its bank, all of which was available.
On April 2, 1996, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution to increase
the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 30,000,000 to
40,000,000 shares, with a par value of $.05 per share. The resolution will be
submitted for approval by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting of the
Stockholders scheduled to be held on May 16, 1996.
On April 2, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a 3 for 2 split of its
Common Stock effected as a 50% stock dividend payable May 10, 1996 to
stockholders of record on April 18, 1996.
The Company believes that its existing bank credit and working capital,
together with funds generated from operations, will be sufficient to satisfy
anticipated sales growth and investment in manufacturing facilities and
equipment. The Company had commitments for approximately $2.0 million of
capital expenditures as of March 30, 1996.
