                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Tech-Sym
Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing in the Company's Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

        In the opinion of the Company's management ("Management") all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for
all periods reported have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal
recurring items.

        The Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for
the full year ending December 31, 2000.

        Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

        Effective June 30, 1998, the Company adopted a plan to sell its
businesses involved in the manufacture of air monitoring products (Anarad, Inc.
or "Anarad") and the manufacture of radio and television broadcast equipment
(Continental Electronics Corporation or "Continental"), and effective December
31, 1998, the Company adopted a plan to sell its majority owned subsidiary,
GeoScience Corporation ("GeoScience"), involved in the manufacture of seismic
equipment used in the exploration for hydrocarbons. The effective dates of June
30, 1998, and December 31, 1998, are the respective measurement dates referred
to when discussing the results of operations of these businesses.

        The presentation of the discontinued operations includes segregation of
the operating results in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter
and six months ended June 30, 2000, and 1999. The net assets of the discontinued
operations are segregated at June 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, in the
Consolidated Balance Sheet and at June 30, 2000, and 1999 in the Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows. Accordingly, the revenue, costs and expenses, assets
and liabilities and cash flows of these discontinued operations have been
excluded from the respective captions in the Consolidated Statement of Income,
Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and have
been reported as "Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of applicable
income taxes (benefits)", as "Net assets of discontinued operations" and as "Net
cash provided by discontinued operations" for all periods listed above. The
results of discontinued operations do not reflect any interest expense or
management fees allocated by the Company. Data presented for earnings per share
reflect the reclassification of the discontinued operations.

        On March 15, 1999, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of
Anarad and on December 13, 1999, the Company sold GeoScience.

        In October 1999, Continental entered into a plan of liquidation of its
German subsidiary. In February 2000, Continental entered into a letter of intent
to sell the assets of its digital television product line ("DTV"). On April 26,
2000, Continental completed the sale of the DTV product line for $2,687,000 in
cash and $1,163,000 note receivable maturing in six months. Continental is
conducting discussions with other parties regarding its remaining product lines.

        In November 1998, the Company sold Lake Investment Company to Consumer
Loan Portfolios Inc. for cash plus notes receivable. During 1999, the Company
did not receive scheduled payments on the remaining $3,100,000 notes receivable.
Due to the non-payment of the notes receivable, the Company issued a demand for
arbitration and a statement of claim as provided for in the purchase agreement.
During July 2000, the Company received an Award of Arbitrators in the amount of
$3,100,000 plus pre-judgement interest of $633,000 and recovery of attorney's
fees and arbitration costs totaling $32,000. The award has been filed with the
District Court in Harris County Texas, for enforcement and shall accrue interest
at the rate of 15% per annum until paid in full. In addition,

NOTE 4 - PER SHARE DATA

        Basic per share amounts are computed based on the average number of
common shares outstanding. Diluted per share amounts reflect the increase in
average common shares outstanding that would result from the exercise of
outstanding stock options computed using the treasury stock method. Stock
options are the only potentially dilutive shares the Company has outstanding.
Outstanding stock options of 75,000 and 665,870 were anti-dilutive and were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter and
six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively. Due to the Company's losses in the
prior year, diluted earnings per share presented on the Consolidated Statement
of Operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999, do not reflect
the effect of outstanding stock options because to do so would be anti-dilutive.
Outstanding stock options for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999
were 961,120.

        During the first quarter of 2000, the Company repurchased 171,230 shares
of its common stock under a previously approved repurchase program. There was no
repurchase of the Company's common stock during the second quarter of 2000.

NOTE 5 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

        The Company's reportable segments are business units that design,
manufacture and distribute distinct products, with distinct customer bases and
are each managed separately. The Company's reportable segments are
communications, defense systems and weather information systems. The reportable
segments provide products as described in the Company's Form 10-K for the year

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

        As discussed in Note 2 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company has discontinued certain businesses, therefore
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations below relates only to the Company's continuing businesses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER
ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

        Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, increased $9,374,000 or 27%
to $44,705,000 compared to $35,331,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The
increase occurred primarily in the defense systems and communications segments,
which increased $4,958,000 or 41% and $2,595,000 or 14%, respectively, over the
prior year period. The increase was due to new programs currently under contract
that were not in process in the second quarter of 1999. Additionally, the
current period consolidated revenue included $1,452,000 from CrossLink, Inc.
("CrossLink"), in which a majority equity interest was acquired in July 1999.
Revenue from the weather information systems segment increased slightly over the
prior year comparative period.

        Consolidated gross margin as a percentage of sales was 29% and 21% for
the quarters ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The gross margin for
the quarter ended June 30, 1999, included a $4,000,000 charge for additional
inventory reserves within the communications segment. Excluding the inventory
charge discussed above, the communications segment's gross margin was unchanged
for the quarters ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The gross margin
percentage for the defense systems segment decreased to 25% from 32%, primarily
as a result of cost overruns on certain contracts and several new contracts in
the early start-up phase of production. The gross margin percentage for the
weather information systems segment was relatively flat quarter to quarter.

        Company-sponsored product development for the current quarter had an
overall net increase of $84,000 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The
inclusion of CrossLink's company-sponsored product development in the current
quarter contributed $562,000 to the consolidated company-sponsored product
development, whereas, the Company's reportable segments had a combined decrease
of $478,000 in these expenditures, reflecting the completion of major projects
in 1999.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $828,000 or 10%
to $8,857,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same quarter
in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses within the
communications segment increased $372,000 in the current quarter due to
increased marketing activity and greater general and administrative expenses
associated with the growth of that business. The inclusion of CrossLink's
general and administrative expenses in the current period also contributed
$394,000 to the consolidated general and administrative expenses. Selling costs
within the weather information systems segment increased $187,000 over the
comparative period reflecting a higher mix of contracts with sales commissions.

        Interest expense for the current quarter decreased $265,000 to $49,000
from $314,000 in the prior year quarter, reflecting the reduction of debt during
the fourth quarter of 1999 and first quarter of 2000 as a result of cash
received from the sale of GeoScience and the Company's equity investment in
Scientific Research Company ("SRC"). Other income was $76,000 for the current
quarter compared to other expense of $625,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1999, reflecting increased interest earnings due to greater cash on deposit
during the second quarter of 2000. Expenses in the second quarter of 1999
reflect the costs associated with the shut down and closeout of the
communications segment's San Clemente, California facility and the movement of
its residual operations to the Tampa, Florida facility.

        The Company expects its effective tax rate to be 36% for fiscal 2000.
The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2000 was 36%.

        Income from continuing operations and net income for the quarter ended
June 30, 2000 was $1,894,000 or $.32 per diluted share as compared to a loss
from continuing operations of $1,712,000 or $.28 per diluted share for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999. There were no reportable results from discontinued
operations included in net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Prior
accruals for anticipated losses were still sufficient to cover current period
and expected future losses for the disposal period. For the quarter ended June
30, 1999, the Company recognized previously deferred after-tax losses of
$19,146,000 or $3.17 per diluted share for the discontinued radio and television
broadcast equipment business.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE SIX
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

        Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000, increased $13,971,000 or
19% to $87,298,000 compared to $73,327,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1999. The increase occurred primarily in the defense systems segment, which was
$7,338,000 or 30%, over the prior year period. The increase was due to new
programs currently under contract that were not in process in the first half of
1999 and the movement of other programs from the developmental phase to
production. Additionally, the current period consolidated revenue included
$3,399,000 from CrossLink, in which a majority equity interest was acquired in
July 1999. Revenue from the communications segment increased $2,766,000 or 7%
over the prior year reflecting the continued expansion of global communication
markets. Revenue from the weather information systems segment increased slightly
over the prior year comparative period.

        Consolidated gross margin as a percentage of sales was 29% and 25% for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The gross margin for
the six months ended June 30, 1999, reflected an additional $4,000,000 charge
for inventory reserves within the communications segment. Excluding the
inventory charge, the communications segment's gross margin was unchanged for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The gross margin
percentage for the defense systems segment decreased to 27% from 29%, primarily
as a result of cost overruns on certain contracts and several new contracts in
the early start-up phase of production, in the second quarter of 2000. The gross
margin percentage for the weather information systems segment decreased to 49%
from 51%, primarily as a result of the volume mix and stage of completion of
contracts in process between the two periods.

        Company-sponsored product development expenditures for the current six
months was $155,000 less than in the six months ended June 30, 1999. The
expenditures decreased $955,000 within the Company's reportable segments

development expenditures were $800,000 for CrossLink during the period.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,731,000 or 11%
to $18,130,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same
period in the prior year. The increase primarily occurred within the defense
systems segment relating to increased proposal activity and greater general and
administrative expenses associated with the growth of that business. The
inclusion of CrossLink's general and administrative expenses in the current
period contributed $696,000 to the consolidated general and administrative
expenses. General and administrative expenses within the communications segment
decreased $116,000 as compared to prior year period, which included additional
costs related to the restructuring efforts that began in the latter part of
1998. Selling costs within the weather information systems segment was
relatively flat compared to the prior year period.

        Interest expense for the current six months decreased $565,000 to
$116,000 from $681,000 in the prior year, reflecting the reduction of debt
during the fourth quarter of 1999 and first quarter of 2000 as a result of cash
received from the sale of GeoScience and the Company's equity investment in SRC.
Other income was $5,485,000 for the current six months compared to other expense
of $412,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, reflecting a pre-tax gain of
$4,894,000 on the sale of the Company's equity investment in SRC and increased
interest earnings due to greater cash on deposit during the six months of 2000.
Expenses in the first six months of 1999 included the costs associated with the
shut down and closeout of the communications segment's San Clemente, California
facility and the movement of its residual operations to the Tampa, Florida
facility.

        The Company expects its effective tax rate to be 36% for fiscal 2000.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2000 was 38% due primarily to
the gain recognized on the sale of SRC.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        During the current period the Company satisfied its working capital and
capital expenditure requirements through cash on hand, from the sale of
GeoScience Corporation in December 1999, the sale of SRC in January 2000 and the
sale of the discontinued DTV product line in April 2000. At June 30, 2000,
$5,349,000 of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are subject
to restrictions related to letters of credit with various financial
institutions. At June 30, 2000, the Company's working capital balance, net of
assets of discontinued operations, was $99,465,000, compared to $88,314,000 at
December 31, 1999. At June 30, 2000, the Company's continuing operations had
short-term line of credit facilities aggregating $5,450,000, of which $4,875,000
was available for additional short-term borrowings. The Company had a working
capital ratio of 4.03 to 1.0 and debt to total capitalization of 2%.

        Purchases of property, plant and equipment for continuing operations
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, totaled $6,672,000, including
$1,920,000 relating to the capitalization of costs associated with equipment
manufactured for lease, compared to $3,149,000 for the same period in the prior
year. The Company believes that its cash on hand, cash from results of
operations and available line of credit facilities will provide adequate funds
to meet foreseeable requirements.

        Net cash provided by the discontinued operations of Continental was
$4,077,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, primarily as a result of cash
provided from the sale of the DTV product line and the collection of accounts
receivable, which exceeded other operating, investing and financing net cash
requirements. In October 1999, Continental entered into a plan of liquidation of
its German subsidiary. Under the terms of the plan, Continental is required to
fund the cash flow requirements of operating the German subsidiary during the
liquidation phase, which is expected to conclude during the year 2000. At June
30, 2000, Continental's estimated future commitment is reported in the balance
sheet as a reduction of net assets of discontinued operations. The Company has
guaranteed Continental's commitment under the plan of liquidation.

        On June 27, 2000, the Veritas Capital Fund, L.P., through its portfolio
company Integrated Defense Technologies, Inc., agreed to acquire the outstanding
shares of the Company for $30.00 per share in cash. The transaction is subject
to regulatory and stockholder approval and is expected to close during the third
quarter of 2000.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

        The Company is currently not aware of any Year 2000 problems in any of
its products or critical systems and continues to monitor for any Year 2000
related issues. The Company expects no future material expenditures relating to
Year 2000 issues.
