                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 BUSINESS

XeTel provides advanced design and prototype services, manufactures
sophisticated surface mount assemblies and supplies turnkey solutions to
original equipment manufacturers primarily in the telecommunications,
networking and computer industries.  XeTel incorporates its design and
prototype services and assembly capabilities together with materials
management, advanced testing, systems integration services and order
fulfillment to provide turnkey solutions for its customers.

NOTE 2  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position, operating results, and cash flows for
those periods presented.  The results of operations for the period ended June
28, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the
fiscal year ending March 28, 1998. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements, and notes thereto, for the fiscal
year ended March 29, 1997 as presented in the Company's 10-K filed with the
SEC.

NOTE 3  NET INCOME PER SHARE

Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding (if dilutive)
during the period.  Common share equivalents include stock options.  The number
of common share equivalents outstanding relating to stock options is computed
using the treasury stock method.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share ("SFAS No. 128").
The new standard, which is effective for financial statements issued for
periods ending after December 15, 1997, establishes standards for computing and
presenting earnings per share (EPS) and upon adoption requires restatement of
all prior period EPS data presented.  The Company will implement this standard
in the third quarter of fiscal 1998.  The implementation of the standard will
result in the presentation of a basic EPS calculation in the financial
statements as well as a diluted EPS calculation.  Under SFAS No. 128, basic and
diluted earnings per share will not differ materially from the amounts
currently reported.

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

The discussion in this document contains trend analysis and other forward
looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.  Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements throughout this document as a result of the risk
factors set forth below and other risks described in the Company's other filed
SEC documents such as those associated with the Company's initial public
offering and Form 10-K filing.

OVERVIEW

XeTel was founded in 1984. In 1986, Rohm , a diversified electronics company,
acquired a controlling interest in the Company. Since its inception, the
Company has manufactured surface mount assemblies and performed other
manufacturing services for OEMs in the electronics industry. In a number of
cases, such services were rendered during periods in which customers were
experiencing fluctuations in demand for their products. During such periods,
the Company's net sales and operating results were and are subject to
significant fluctuations that often were and are tied to the market demand for
its customers' products, competitive factors and the customers' need to utilize
independent manufacturers to maintain sufficient product supply to meet such
demand. In addition, in the past, the Company's customer base was concentrated
within the computer industry. Due to intense competitive pressures within the
computer industry, as well as fluctuations in overall demand and lower
production volumes, the Company generally experienced lower gross margins.

Gross margins and operating results are also affected by the level of capacity
utilization of manufacturing facilities, indirect labor and selling, general
and administrative expenses.  Accordingly, gross margins and operating income
margins have generally improved during periods of high volume and high capacity
utilization.  XeTel generally has idle capacity and reduced operating margins
during periods of lower-volume production.

In an effort to achieve greater stability and higher gross margins, the Company
made the strategic decision in 1993 to reduce its dependence on the computer
industry and expand its service offerings in order to establish long-term
relationships with targeted customers in diversified markets. With the addition
of new management personnel in 1993, including a new President in September
1993, the Company focused certain of its resources to establish capabilities in
product design and prototype, improve materials management processes,
restructure the Company's management organization, establish dedicated customer
teams, and to expand and diversify its customer base. The Company has reduced
its role as a source of additional capacity for OEMs during periods of
fluctuating product demand and has positioned itself to provide a more
comprehensive set of services within the electronics manufacturing services
industry.

The development and growth of the Company's business has generally followed the
trend by OEMs in the electronics industry to outsource certain of their
manufacturing requirements. Recognizing the benefits offered by using
independent manufacturers, OEMs in the electronics industry have increasingly
relied on independent manufacturers not only as a source of additional
manufacturing capacity during periods of fluctuating demand, but as the primary
source for their manufacturing and assembly needs. In addition, the Company has
developed competencies in additional areas where it can add value to its
customers' requirements, such as design, prototype, systems integration and
order fulfillment and has sought to use such competencies to forge long-term
relationships as a single source provider of turnkey solutions for its
customers.  During fiscal 1997, XeTel acquired two full-service manufacturing
services centers in Dallas, Texas and San Ramon, California to further
establish and expand its long-term relationships with OEM's of advanced
electronic products.

RISK FACTORS

Fluctuations in Operating Results. XeTel's operating results are affected by a
number of factors, including timing of orders from and shipments to major
customers, availability of materials and components, the volume of orders
relative to the Company's capacity, timing of expenditures in anticipation of
future sales, the gain or loss of significant customers, variations in the mix
between consignment and component purchase arrangements with customers,
variations in the demand for products in the industries served by the Company
and general economic conditions.  Operating results can also be significantly
influenced by the development and introduction of new products or technologies
by the Company's customers, or such customer's competitors, which may
materially and adversely affect the demand for the Company's services.  The
Company's customers generally require short delivery cycles, and a substantial
portion of the Company's backlog is typically scheduled for delivery within 120
days.  In the absence of substantial backlog, quarterly sales and operating
results depend on the volume and timing of bookings received during the quarter
which can be difficult to forecast.  Backlog fluctuations affect the Company's
ability to plan production and inventory levels, which could lead to
fluctuations in operating results.  Variations in the size and delivery
schedules of purchase orders received by the Company, changes in customers'
delivery requirements, or the rescheduling or cancellation of orders and
commitments, may result in substantial fluctuations in backlog from period to
period.  Accordingly, the Company believes that backlog may not be a meaningful
indicator of future operating results.
<PAGE>   9
A significant portion of the Company's expenses is relatively fixed in nature
and planned expenditures are based in part on anticipated orders.  The
inability to adjust expenditures quickly enough to compensate for a decline in
net sales may magnify the adverse impact of such decline in the Company's
results of operations.  Results of operations in any period should not be
considered indicative of the results for any future period, and fluctuations in
operating results may result in fluctuations in the price of the Company's
common stock.  Due to the foregoing factors, among others, the Company's
operating results in some future quarters may be below the expectations of
stock market analysts and investors.  In such event, there could be an
immediate and significant adverse effect on the trading price of the common
stock of the Company.

Concentration of Customers.  The Company's customer base is highly
concentrated.  The Company's three largest customers accounted for
approximately 34%, 13% and 8%, respectively, of net sales for the three months
ended June 28, 1997.  The loss of, or a significant curtailment of purchases
by, one or more of these customers, or any other significant customer of the
Company, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.  The Company anticipates that a
significant portion of its sales will continue to be concentrated in a small
number of customers for the foreseeable future.

Unavailability of Components and Materials.  Components and material used by
XeTel in producing surface mount assemblies and turnkey solutions are purchased
by XeTel from approved suppliers of its customers.  Any failure on the part of
suppliers to deliver required components to the Company or any failure of such
components to meet performance requirements could impair the Company's ability
to meet scheduled shipment dates and could delay sales of systems by the
Company's customers and thereby adversely affect the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.  The Company has in the past
experienced shortages of certain types of electronic components, and may
experience shortages of certain electronic components that are in short supply
generally within the electronics industry.  Component shortages or price
fluctuations, to the extent not absorbed by customers under its agreements with
the Company, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.  Certain components used in a
number of the Company's customer programs are obtained from a single source.

Variability of Customer Requirements; Absence of Long-Term Purchase Orders.
The level and timing of purchase orders placed by the Company's customers are
affected by a number of factors, including variation in demand for the
customer's products, customer attempts to manage inventory and changes in the
customer's manufacturing strategies.  Many of such factors are outside of the
control of the Company.  The Company typically does not obtain long-term
purchase orders or commitments, but instead works with its customers to develop
nonbinding forecasts of the future volume of orders.  Based on such nonbinding
forecasts, the Company makes commitments regarding the level of business that
it will seek and accept, the timing of production schedules and the levels and
utilization of personnel and other resources.  Generally, customers may cancel,
reduce or delay purchase orders and commitments without penalty, except for
payment for services rendered, materials purchased or procured and, in certain
circumstances, charges associated with such cancellation, reduction or delay.
During fiscal 1997, certain major customers reduced significant orders with the
Company due to competitive factors and efforts to rebalance inventories.
Significant or numerous cancellations, reductions or delays in orders by
customers, or inability by customers to pay for services provided by the
Company or to pay for components and materials purchased by the Company on such
customer's behalf, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Management of Growth and Expansion.  The Company's design, prototype, assembly
and turnkey solutions business and multi- site locations have grown rapidly in
recent years.  This growth has increased the Company's fixed costs and required
it to hire additional personnel.  Furthermore, the Company plans to establish
additional regional manufacturing services centers which will increase the
Company's fixed costs and will require additional personnel.  A continuing
period of rapid growth, including geographic expansions, could place a
significant strain on the Company's management, operations and other resources.
The Company's ability to manage its growth will require it to manage its
existing resources more efficiently, to continue to invest in its operations,
including its financial and management information systems and internal process
controls, and to retain, motivate and manage its employees.  If the Company's
management is unable to manage growth effectively, the quality of the Company's
services and its ability to retain key personnel could be materially and
adversely affected, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three months ended June 28, 1997 decreased 13.4% to $24.5
million from $28.2 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.
Lower sales during the three months ended June 28, 1997 as compared to the same
period in the prior year were primarily attributable to decreased material
content associated with a change in mix of manufacturing services.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 28, 1997 decreased 21.0% to $2.3
million from $2.9 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  Gross profit is defined
as net sales less cost of sales. Cost of sales consists of direct labor, direct
material and manufacturing overhead (which includes manufacturing and process
engineering expenses). Gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales)
decreased to 9.4% for the first quarter of the 1998 fiscal year from 10.3% for
the comparable prior year period. The decrease in the Company's gross margin
reflects the effects of lower sales levels and a lower absorption of fixed
costs.
<PAGE>   10
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses consist primarily of
salaries and related expenses, marketing and promotional expenses, and sales
commissions paid to direct sales personnel and independent sales representative
organizations. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 28, 1997 remained
relatively flat at $1.6 million as compared to the $1.6 million in the
corresponding period in fiscal 1997. SG&A expenses represented 6.6% of net
sales for the three months ended June 28, 1997 as compared to 5.7% for the
three months ended June 29, 1996.  The percentage increase in SG&A for the
three months ended June 28, 1997 as compared to the comparable prior period is
due to the decrease in net sales.

Interest income (expense), net for the three months ended June 28, 1997
reflected income of $61,000 compared to $51,000 of income in the corresponding
period in fiscal 1997.  The increase in interest income for the three months
ended June 28, 1997 is due to a higher average cash and cash equivalent balance
during the quarter as compared to the corresponding period of fiscal 1997.

The provision for income taxes of $278,000 and $509,000 reflects an effective
tax rate of 37.9%  for the three months ended June 28, 1997 which was
relatively flat with the 37.6% effective tax rate for the three month period
ended June 29, 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital was $20.2 million and $20.4 million as of June 28, 1997 and
March 29, 1997, respectively. In addition to the Company's working capital as
of June 28, 1997, which includes cash and cash equivalents of $6.3 million, the
Company has $15.6 million available from unused credit facilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $259,000 and $392,000 during the
three months ended June 28, 1997 and June 29, 1996, respectively.

Capital expenditures during the three months ended June 28, 1997 and June 29,
1996 were $3.1 million and $263,000, respectively. The increase in capital
expenditures is due to increased capital investments associated with the
Company's new manufacturing facilities in Austin, Texas.  Management
anticipates capital expenditures in fiscal 1998 will exceed the level of
capital expenditures made in fiscal 1997.

The Company has (i) a revolving line of credit for $10 million from a
commercial bank, (ii) a $2.5 million term loan facility, (iii) an unused
equipment financing facility for $1.8 million from a financial services
company, and (iv) a revolving line of credit for $3 million from Rohm. At June
28, 1997, the Company had $1.7 million outstanding under the term loan
facility, compared to $-- at March 29, 1997.  There were no outstanding
balances under the commercial bank revolving line of credit or the revolving
line of credit with Rohm as of June 28, 1997 and March 29, 1997.

The bank facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% or 1.75% and/or prime
(such rate determined based upon the amounts and period of loans), matures
August 1998 and is secured by certain assets of the Company.  The bank facility
requires the payment of a monthly commitment fee equal to one-eighth of one
percent (1/8%) on the unused balance, and borrowings are limited based upon
certain collateral availability requirements. The term loan facility bears
interest at 9.2% with a maturity of August 31, 2000. The line of credit from
Rohm is secured by certain equipment, bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.25%, is
payable on demand and expires on March 31, 1998.  The equipment financing
facility provides for the leasing of equipment over a five-year period
commencing on the date of acceptance of such equipment.

The financing facilities contain certain restrictions which, among other
things, require maintenance of a minimum level of tangible net worth and other
operating and financial ratios.

The Company believes that its working capital, together with cash generated
from operations and financing facilities, will be sufficient to satisfy
anticipated sales growth and investment in manufacturing facilities and
equipment through its 1998 fiscal year end.

BACKLOG

The Company's backlog as of June 28, 1997 was approximately $68.5 million
compared to approximately $66.1 million at March 29, 1997.  Backlog consists of
purchase orders received by the Company and commitments under scheduled
releases, both of which generally specify delivery dates within twelve months.
Variations in the size and delivery schedules of purchase orders received by
the Company, as well as changes in customers' delivery requirements or the
rescheduling or cancellation of orders and commitments, has resulted in the
past and may result in substantial fluctuation in backlog from period to
period.  Accordingly, the Company believes that backlog may not be a meaningful
indicator of future operating results.  See "Variability of Customer
Requirements" and "Fluctuations in Operating Results."

EMPLOYEES

As of June 28, 1997, the Company had 560  full-time employees supplemented from
time to time by part-time employees.  The employees are not represented by a
union, and the Company believes its employee relations to be satisfactory.

The Company's success depends to an extent upon the continued services of
several key employees. The loss of certain key personnel could have a material
adverse effect on the Company.  The Company's business also depends upon its
ability to continue to attract and retain senior managers and skilled
employees.  Failure to do so could adversely affect the Company's operations.
