Item 5.           Other Events.

                  Sawtek  Inc.  announced  its  outlook  for the  balance of its
fiscal year that ends on September 30, 1998.  Steve  Miller,  Chairman and Chief
Executive  Officer,  stated,  "I expect the Company to record  strong  financial
results for the quarter ending June 30, 1998. However,  external factors outside
the control of the Company indicate that it will be difficult for the Company to
post sequential  growth in revenue and profits for the quarter ending  September
30, 1998."
