3.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted
earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
determined for the basic computations plus the number of shares of common stock
that would be issued assuming all contingently issuable shares having a dilutive
effect on earnings per share were outstanding.

4.  Sales to Related Parties

Sales to Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. amounted to $1,325,000 for the first
six months of 1999. This represents 24.5% of the Company's total sales of

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


OVERVIEW

THE COMPANY. The business of Acrodyne Communications, Inc. (formerly Acrodyne
Holdings, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), is conducted through
its sole operating subsidiary Acrodyne Industries, Inc. ("Acrodyne"). Acrodyne
was acquired by the Company on October 24, 1994. Prior thereto, the Company had
no operations. The Company changed its name to Acrodyne Communications, Inc. on
June 9, 1995.

Business of Acrodyne. Acrodyne (together with its predecessor) has designed,
manufactured and marketed television transmitters and translators which have
been sold in the United States and internationally since 1971. The function of a
television transmitter is to broadcast on the air television signals to a
specific audience receiving such signals by regular antenna or by a local cable
company which then feeds the signal to their subscribers. Television
translators, which operate unattended, retransmit incoming signals from primary
stations on different channels within areas where direct reception of the
original signal may be limited by mountains or other geographic impediments.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS On January 27, 1999 Sinclair Broadcast Group ("Sinclair")
acquired a significant equity interest in the Company. Sinclair has made a cash
infusion of $4.3 million in the Company in receipt of 1,431,333 shares of the
Company's common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 8,719,225
shares over a term of seven years at prices ranging from $3.00 to $6.00 per
share. Of such warrants, 6,000,000 are exercisable only upon the Company's
achievement of increased product sales or sales of products with new technology.
Sinclair has also acquired an additional 800,000 shares of the Company's common
stock previously held by the Scorpion/New Light investment group. Sinclair now
holds an aggregate of 2,231,333 shares of the Company, representing
approximately 33% of the Company's issued common stock.

On June 15, 1999 the shareholders of the Company voted in favor of appointing
Arthur Andersen LLP as the Company's independent accountant for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1999. The Company filed a Form 8-KSB with regard to this
appointment on May 5, 1999 which is hereby incorporated by reference.

On June 15, 1999 the shareholders of the Company voted for the approval of the
1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan. 355,000 options were issued under the Long-Term
Incentive Plan to various employees and directors. The options are either
immediately exercisable or will become exercisable within the next two years.

</TABLE>

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1999 showed a 31% decrease over
net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Management believes that the
decrease is attributable to the delay in purchasing Digital transmission
equipment by broadcasters, which has further caused a delay or disturbance in
the routine purchasing of standard analog equipment. Additionally, nearly $1M of
the orders scheduled to be shipped in the second quarter were rescheduled by
customers to allow time for site preparation and other related construction
matters to be completed. Although overall sales volume in dollars is down, the
increase in High Power sales and new orders remain on the rise. The Company
believes that this increase in High Power products is a result of its strategic
alliance with Sinclair Broadcast, who has increased Acrodyne's national
recognition and has improved Acrodyne's access to major customers.

The gross margin on sales decreased to 33% and 35% in the three and six months
ended June 30, 1999, respectively from 39% and 36% in the three and six months
ended June 30, 1998. This decrease is attributable to increased competitive
pricing, thereby lowering sellprice levels industrywide.

Total Operating expenses decreased slightly to $1,225,881 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 from $1,243,231 for the same period in 1998. The six month
comparison of operating expenses however, shows an increase of $43,725 from the
six months ended June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999. This increase is attributable
to internal restructuring following the Sinclair investment. The restructuring
will improve the Company's position in the current and future market place, and
provide for the introduction of new products and improvement of customer
satisfaction.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically, Acrodyne has financed its activities primarily from operations,
borrowings and equity transactions and more recently through investment
transactions such as the Sinclair Investment. At June 30, 1999 the Company's
working capital increased by $2,355,756 to $5,315,036 as compared to $2,959,280
at December 31, 1998, mainly from the increase in Inventories and a decrease in
Accounts Payable.

Accounts receivable at June 30, 1999 were $1,516,044 and remained relatively
constant from December 31, 1998. The Company has been deviating from its
standard credit terms as an inducement to its customers. This practice, along
with open account terms for government contracts, the acceptance of letters of
credit from customers and transactions with leasing companies reduced the
Company's cash reserves. The majority of the Company's sales of domestic
transmitters require payment of a non-refundable 30% deposit at the time of
placing the order, 40% to 60% prior to shipment and 10% to 30% net thirty days
after shipment. The Company continues to require an irrevocable letter of credit
on international orders.

Inventories, net of reserves, in the amount of $356,000 increased to $5,934,487
on June 30, 1999 from $4,325,445 at December 31, 1998 due to slower than
anticipated shipments in the first and second quarters, mainly relating to the
delay in purchasing of Digital transmission equipment by broadcasters, and a
build up of needed components in anticipation of summer months shut down by
critical vendors. The Company's strategy has been to build up its inventories in
an attempt to provide quick turnaround to strengthen its market position and to
acquire higher volume in purchasing to take advantage of discount opportunities.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company had a line of credit of $2,000,000. This
facility required the Company to maintain a $750,000 certificate of deposit,
which is included in Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Consolidated Balance
Sheets. In August, the Company entered into a new credit facility ("Credit
Facility") which provides for a $2,5000,000 line of credit. This credit facility
bears interest at the lower of the Prime Rate minus 1/2% or the Euro-Rate plus
2%. The Credit Facility does not require a compensation balance or escrow
account, is collateralized by all personal property of the Company and is
guaranteed by Sinclair. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is
required to maintain various loan covenants, including a Minimum Tangible Net
Worth, as defined of $4,500,000 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.1 to
1.0.

On December 31, 1998 the Company was not in compliance with the terms of the
line of credit with respect to their working capital ratio with their present
banking facility. The Company obtained a waiver for the 1998 event of default
and restructured its loan agreement for 1999. Borrowings under the line of
credit totaled $1,600,000 and $1,275,000 on June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
respectively. As of July 21, 1999 the borrowings remained at $1,600,000.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this report that do not relate to historical
information are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the United
States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and thus are
prospective. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties
and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from
future results expressed, projected or implied by such forward-looking

and broadcast industry conditions. These factors are discussed in greater detail
in the Company's filings with the Canadian and United States Securities
regulators. The Company disclaims any responsibility to update any such
forward-looking statements.

Year 2000

During 1998 and early 1999, management of the Company and their staff completed
their assessment of the various computer software and hardware used in
connection with ongoing operations. This review indicated that significantly all
of the computer programs used by the Company are off the-shelf "packaged"
computer programs which are easily upgraded to be Year 2000 compliant.
Management began to upgrade those systems during the last quarter of 1998 and
into the first quarter of 1999, and at present they are Year 2000 compliant. To
date, management is not aware of any external agent that would materially impact
the results of operation, liquidity or capital. However, management has no means
of ensuring that external agents are Year 2000 compliant.
