The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company,
under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
accompanying financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted under such rules and regulations, although the Company
believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. The year-end balance sheet data were derived from
audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. These unaudited financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included
in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-KSB for the year ended

periods ended May 29, 1999 may not necessarily be indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS No. 133) "Accounting of Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities."

(3) NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share
is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding assuming the exercise of dilutive stock options unless
the effect is antidilutive. The dilutive effect of the stock options is computed
using the average market price of the Company's stock during each period under
the treasury stock method.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS                                    HEI, INC.
          ----------------------------------------------------------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION - LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's net cash flow provided by operating activities was $775,000 for
the nine months ended May 29, 1999. This included primarily a net loss of
$70,000, adjusted for non-cash depreciation and amortization of $1,077,000, and
a net decrease of $203,000 in working capital investment during the first nine
months of fiscal 1999. The lower working capital investment resulted primarily
from increased inventories of $637,000 and decreased accounts payable of
$1,521,000 partially offset by decreased accounts receivable of $666,000 and an
income tax payable and receivable change of $1,232,000.

Inventory increase is primarily due to increased purchased parts and finished
goods in conjunction with meeting customer delivery requirements. Annualized
inventory turns were 6.0 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to 12.3
turns for the same period a year ago.

Accounts receivable average days outstanding were 43 days as of May 29, 1999
compared to 37 days for May 30, 1998.

In April 1996, the Company received proceeds of $5,625,000 from the issuance of
Industrial Development Revenue Bonds. The bonds related to the facility
expansion require annual principal payments of $90,000 in the first year and
$95,000 on April 1 of each year thereafter through 2011. The bonds related to
the purchased equipment require payments over seven years from the date of
purchase of the equipment through no later than April 1, 2006. In April 1999 and
1998, the Company repaid $700,000 and $650,000 of the construction and equipment
bonds, respectively. The Company has limited market risk in terms of the
variability of the interest rate on these bonds. The bonds bear interest at a
rate which varies weekly, based on comparable tax exempt issues, and is limited
to a maximum rate of 10%. The interest rate at both May 29, 1999 and August 31,
1998 was 3.70%. The bonds are collateralized by two irrevocable letters of
credit and essentially all property and equipment. The letter of credit
reimbursement agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including
limitations on other borrowings and maintenance of specified financial levels
and ratios for net income, tangible net worth, debt to tangible net worth, cash
flow and indebtedness. Restricted cash on the balance sheet represents an
investment pledged as payment on a severance agreement, is held in a separate
account, and will be released to the Company's regular accounts over the next
two years as the obligation is paid.

The Company has available a $5,000,000 revolving line of credit which expires in
April 2000. As of May 29, 1999, there were no borrowings under this revolving
line of credit. Any borrowings under this agreement are subject to the extent of
and collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable. The agreement requires
compliance with certain financial covenants and restricts obtaining other
borrowings. Interest on the revolving line of credit is based, at the Company's
option, on the lender's prime rate of interest or 1.5% to 2% above the lender's
LIBOR rate.

Capital equipment expenditures for the nine months ended May 29, 1999 were
$1,776,000, primarily for production equipment.

During fiscal 1999, the Company intends to expend approximately $3,000,000 for
capital equipment to increase manufacturing capacity to meet anticipated
requirements for continued revenue growth, including the start up of assembly
operations in Mexico. Some of this equipment will be financed through operating
leases in lieu of capital expenditures.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

NET SALES

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: HEI, Inc.'s net sales for the three month period ended May
29, 1999 decreased 16% from the same period a year ago primarily due to two
large customers temporarily reducing demand to bring their own inventory levels
down. Net sales for the nine month period increased 24% from the same period a
year ago reflecting increases from new customers and existing business in each
of the Company's core markets.

Because the Company's sales are generally tied to the customers' projected sales
and production of the related products, the Company's sales levels are subject
to fluctuations beyond the Company's control. To the extent that sales to any
one customer represent a significant portion of the Company's sales, any change
in the level of sales to that customer can have a significant impact on the
Company's total sales. In addition, production for one customer may conclude
while production for a new customer has not yet begun or is not yet at full
volume. These factors may result in significant fluctuations in sales from
quarter to quarter.

GROSS PROFIT

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: For the three month and nine month periods ended May 29,
1999, gross profit decreased $775,000 and increased $475,000, respectively, from
the same periods last year as a result of revenue fluctuations in fiscal 1999.
The gross profit rate for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 decreased to 13% from
23% for the comparable period last year primarily due to the impact of lower
revenues on fixed costs in the third quarter. The gross profit rate for the nine
months ended May 29, 1999 decreased slightly to 19% from 20% last year.

OPERATING EXPENSES

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: Operating expenses for the three and nine month periods
ended May 29, 1999 increased from last year's comparable periods. The
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $193,000 and
$594,000 for the three and nine month periods, respectively, was due to
higher legal expense, increased selling expenses and start up costs related
to Mexican operations which are expensed as incurred. The increases in
research, development and engineering expenses of $136,000 and $346,000 for
the three and nine month periods, respectively, were primarily due to
increased development costs to support future business opportunities. In
addition, during the first quarter the Company incurred $490,000 of costs
related to the severance agreement between the Company and Eugene W.
Courtney, former Chief Executive officer. These costs are being paid over a
two-year period. Operating expenses in total were 23% and 21% of net sales
for the three and nine month periods, respectively, compared to 18% and 19%
for the same periods last year. During the third quarter of fiscal year 1998,
the Company incurred $274,000 of special proxy/legal expenses relating to the
control contest in which Fant Industries, Inc. gained control of the
Company's Board of Directors. These special proxy/legal expenses continued
during the fourth quarter of last fiscal year.

OTHER INCOME

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: Other income for the three and nine month periods ended
May 29, 1999 included $168,000 from an insurance reimbursement of certain
litigation costs related to the proxy contest incurred during fiscal year 1998.
Other income for the previous fiscal year was principally interest income.

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: The Company records income tax expense for interim periods
based on the expected effective rate for the full year. The expected effective
income tax rate for fiscal 1999 is approximately 34% compared to the full year
fiscal 1998 effective rate of 31%. Income tax benefit was $94,000 and $36,000
for the three and nine month periods ended May 29, 1999 compared to income tax
expense of $156,000 and $200,000 for the same periods a year ago.

NET INCOME

FISCAL 1999 VS. 1998: The Company had a net loss of $176,000 and $70,000 for the
three and nine month periods ended May 29, 1999, respectively, compared to net
income of $347,000 and $447,000 for the same periods a year ago. The decrease in
net income for the three month period ended May 29, 1999 as compared to the same
period last year was principally the result of decreased sales. The decrease in
net income for the nine month period ended May 29, 1999 as compared to the same
period last year was principally the result of increased costs and expenses
associated with new business initiatives, including the start up of the
Company's new manufacturing facility in Mexico.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000: The Company has considered the impact of Year 2000 on the
computer systems and applications and developed a remediation plan. Conversion
activities are in process and we expect conversion and testing to be completed
during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999. Expenditures to date for the Year 2000
project amounted to approximately $90,000 and the Company expects that
completion of the project will result in additional expenditures of
approximately $20,000. The Company is also assessing the Year 2000 readiness of
key material and service providers.

The Company believes that with modifications to existing systems and conversions
to new systems, the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational
problems. However, there can be no assurance that all Year 2000 issues will be
identified and resolved in a timely manner, particularly those issues involving
key material and service providers' and other business affiliates' computer
systems outside of the Company's control. If the Company's remediation plan is
not successful, or if these outside systems should fail, there could be a
significant disruption of the Company's ability to transact business with its
customers and suppliers.
