                                -----------------

GENERAL
- -------

     Allen Telecom Inc. ("Allen", the "Company" or the "Registrant") was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 3, 1969. Its
predecessor was Allen Electric and Equipment Company, incorporated under the
laws of the State of Michigan on January 13, 1928, which merged into the
Delaware corporation on May 1, 1969. On February 28, 1997, the name of the
Company was changed from The Allen Group Inc. to Allen Telecom Inc., upon the
merger of its wholly owned subsidiary, Allen Telecom Group, Inc. with and into
the Company.

     In 1996, the Company decided to exit the centralized automotive emissions
testing business operated by its MARTA Technologies, Inc. subsidiary. The
Company determined that the disposal of this business will allow it to fully
devote management and financial resources to its expanding wireless
communications product lines. Additional information regarding this development
is incorporated herein by reference to Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements, "Acquisitions and Dispositions," on pages 23 to 24, and to
the "Discontinued Operations" section of "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," on pages 30 to 31, of Allen's
1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to
this Report.

     There have been no other significant changes in the business, kinds of
products produced or services rendered or in the markets or methods of
distribution since the beginning of the last fiscal year.

     Allen is a leading equipment supplier of system expansion, site management
products and mobile and base station antennas to the worldwide wireless
communications market. The principal product lines are systems products,
including repeaters, microcells, wireless PBX systems, paging repeaters, test
and measurement analyzers and power amplifiers; site management and other
non-antenna products, including filters, tower mounted amplifiers, combiners,
duplexers, isolators and cable; and mobile and base station antennas. The demand
for equipment is primarily a function of the development of wireless
communications systems throughout the world, and Allen's ability to develop new
products and technologies related to system coverage and capacity and components
for other manufacturers' wireless communications systems. In this regard, in
1995, the Company introduced its SmartcellTM microcell, which has the ability to
enhance geographic coverage as well as serve as a platform for wireless PBX. The
Company also has developed several new wireless test and measurement products
which have applications in cellular, PCS, trunking and paging systems. These
products perform analysis for AMPS, TACS and paging systems standards, as well
as digital TDMA, GSM and CDMA standards. The Company's wireless
telecommunications manufacturing business in the U.S. is conducted principally
through its divisions and wholly owned subsidiaries, which includes its Grayson
Electronics Company, Antenna Specialists, Decibel Products, Systems and Site
Products divisions, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Signal Science,
Incorporated. In Europe, the Company's business is conducted through its 80%
owned subsidiary, FOR.E.M. S.p.A., in Italy; FOREM's 62% owned subsidiary, Mikom
G.m.b.H., in Germany; and the Company's 64.3% owned subsidiary, Tekmar Sistemi
S.r.l., in Italy.

     Allen's Comsearch division is a leading supplier of frequency planning and
coordinating services as well as system design and field engineering services
and software products for the wireless and personal communications systems
("PCS") markets. Comsearch is involved with carriers and original equipment
manufacturers ("OEMs") in the process of designing the cell layout of a system.
Comsearch's engineering expertise in spectrum sharing, microwave inter-
connectivity, microwave migration and cell system design has enabled it to
obtain orders from most major PCS carriers. Comsearch's spectrum sharing
software, comprised of IQ.Clear and IQ. Link, currently is licensed in most
major domestic PCS markets, and its IQ.Clear software for microwave
interconnection is operational in several European PCS systems.

     International sales of the Company have increased substantially and are now
more than 56% of total sales. The Company's export sales from the U.S. are
primarily to major wireless telephony companies and are typically payable in
U.S. dollars. European sales are primarily to major European OEMs and cellular
or PCS operators in local currencies. The Company currently has
sales/engineering offices in Canada, China, Brazil, Australia, Singapore,
France, United Kingdom, Austria, Peru, India, Mexico and Hong Kong. The Company
sees no significantly greater risk as a result of the greater proportion of
international business than that of its domestic operations.

     Allen's wireless telephony products generally are manufactured or assembled
by the Company. With respect to its European operations, a substantial portion
of product manufacturing labor is outsourced to third parties. Comsearch's
frequency planning and coordination services are provided principally at its
central headquarters facility and at customer locations. Products are sold
directly through commissioned sales employees or through distributors and sales
representatives to OEMs, common carriers and other large uses of
telecommunications products.

WORKING CAPITAL
- ---------------

     The Company's products consist of standard manufactured products for which
inventory levels are generally based on product demand. As previously indicated,
the increase in international export sales generally resulted in extended
collection periods as such receivables make up a greater proportion of trade
receivables. This factor, in conjunction with the general increase in sales, has
increased the working capital needs of the Company's business.

     During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement and made an equity
investment in a wireless telecommunications company in the amount of $5,000,000.
This company has agreed to purchase from the Company $50,000,000 of equipment
and services through December 31, 2001. In connection with this purchase
commitment, the Company will make available up to $50,000,000 of product
financing in the form of secured, interest bearing loans to be used solely to
finance the purchase price of the equipment and services supplied by the
Company. The Company believes that existing credit lines and continued cash flow
from operations provide sufficient flexibility for this arrangement.

COMPETITION
- -----------

     In each of Allen's product lines, competition is vigorous. The Company
believes that it has established a major market position in the United States
for mobile cellular telephone antennas, where competition is distributed among
many manufacturers. In its other product lines, the Company believes that it is
among the major manufacturers and that competition is widely distributed.
Allen's principal methods of competition include price, service, warranty,
market availability, product research and development, innovation and
performance. In certain of its product lines, the Company has augmented its own
resources through licensing agreements with companies possessing complementary
resources and technologies.

MAJOR CUSTOMERS
- ---------------

     There is no single customer the loss of which would have a material adverse
effect on the Company. However, three major telecommunications equipment
companies accounted for approximately 21% (none individually greater than 10%)
of sales in 1996. The balance of the Company's sales were widely distributed
among many customers.


BACKLOG
- -------

     The approximate backlog of orders as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 are as
follows (amounts in thousands):




                                                               1996         1995

The backlog for wireless communications products represents orders for systems
and site management products and base station and mobile antennas. The increase
in the wireless communications backlog for 1996 reflects a general increase in
the level of business for existing products.

     During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement and made an equity
investment in a wireless telecommunications Company in the amount of $5,000,000.
This Company has agreed to purchase from the Company $50,000,000 of equipment
and services through December 31, 2001. Pending the receipt of orders, this
purchase commitment has been excluded from the above order backlog amounts.

     As noted previously, the Company has decided to exit the centralized
automotive emissions inspections business. The Company has entered into a
contract to transfer its Cincinnati, Ohio program (which currently is not
operating pending the sale). The Jacksonville, Florida program is also subject
to ongoing contract negotiations under which that program also may be sold at
some future date. In the event the aforementioned agreement for sale is not
consummated, the Company will continue to endeavor to sell MARTA's operating
programs or operate them until the termination of the respective contracts, and
will not bid upon or seek new emissions testing programs. Total backlog for this
business (excluding the suspended Cincinnati, Ohio program under contract for
sale) was approximately $22,400,000 at December 31, 1996, of which $12,660,000
is expected to be filled within one year.


PRODUCTION, RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES
- --------------------------------------

     In addition to manufacturing certain products, Allen also assembles at its
facilities certain components manufactured for it by non-affiliated companies.
The principal materials used in the production of Allen's products are
electronic components, steel, aluminum and plastics. These materials are
purchased regularly from several producers and have been generally available in
sufficient quantities to meet Allen's requirements, although occasionally
shortages have occurred. The Company believes that the supplies of materials
through the end of 1997 will be adequate.

PATENTS, LICENSES AND FRANCHISES
- --------------------------------

     The Company owns a number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and
conducts certain operations under licenses granted by others. Although the
Company does not believe that the expiration or loss of any one of these items
would materially affect its business considered as a whole or the operations of
any industry segment, it does consider certain of them to be important to the
conduct of its business in certain product lines. Business franchises and
concessions are not of material importance to Allen's industry segments.


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
- ------------------------

     The Company is engaged in research and development activities
(substantially all of which are Company-sponsored) as part of its ongoing
business. The Company is continuing to emphasize the development of specialty
products and accessories to serve the wireless communications markets.
Currently, these development activities are not expected to require a material
investment in assets. For additional information, see "Research and Development
Costs" in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 16 to 17
of Allen's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as
Exhibit 13 to this Report.


ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS
- ----------------------

     The Company is subject to federal, state and local laws designed to protect
the environment and believes that, as a general matter, its policies, practices
and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of
environmental damage and financial liability to the Company. Additional
information regarding environmental issues is incorporated herein by reference
to the last paragraph of Note 5, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 20 of Allen's 1996 Annual Report to
Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report.


EMPLOYEES
- ---------

     As of December 31, 1996, Allen had approximately 2,900 employees.


SEASONAL TRENDS
- ---------------

     Generally, the Company's sales are not subject to significant seasonal
variations; however, its sales and earnings tend to be lower in the first fiscal
quarter due to lower outdoor installations of its products in the northern
climates.


INDUSTRY SEGMENTS, CLASSES OF PRODUCTS, FOREIGN OPERATIONS AND EXPORT SALES
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Information relating to the Company's classes of similar products or
services, foreign and domestic operations and export sales is incorporated
herein by reference to "Geographic Data" in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements on page 23, and the information presented in the charts and
graphs on pages 28 to 31, of the Company's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a
copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report.

     The Company now has sizeable manufacturing and sales operations in Italy
and Germany. With the opportunities represented by the rapid deployment of
wireless telephony systems throughout the world, the Company has seen extensive
growth in international markets. The Company's export sales have increased from
$62 million in 1994 to $98 million in 1995, and $87 million in 1996. This growth
and the growth in non-European opportunities for our European produced product,
has encouraged the Company to continue to expand the size and number of its
international sales and service offices. The Company also has a manufacturing

operation in Mexico (a "maquiladora") which principally supplies mobile
antennas. In the opinion of management, any risks inherent in Allen's existing
foreign operations and sales are not substantially different than the risks
inherent in its domestic operations.

                               -------------------

     At December 31, 1996, Allen's continuing operations were conducted in 36
facilities in 13 states and 14 foreign countries. Allen's wireless
communications operations occupy approximately 951,000 square feet of space for
manufacturing, assembly, warehousing, research and development, sales and
administrative offices. Approximately 504,000 square feet are rented under
operating leases. The Company's principal facilities are located in Ohio, Texas,
Virginia, Italy, Germany and Mexico.
