CERAMICS PROCESS SYSTEMS CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement
(Unaudited)

(1)  Nature of Business

Ceramics Process Systems Corporation  (the `Company` or `CPS`) produces products used in various end markets including the wireless communications infrastructure market, high-performance microprocessor market, motor controller market and other microelectronic and capital equipment markets.  The Company develops, manufactures, and markets advanced metal-matrix composite components primarily to house, interconnect and thermally manage microelectronic devices.  The Company`s products are typically in the form of housings, packages, lids, substrates, thermal planes, or heat sinks, and are used in applications where thermal management and/or weight are important considerations.

The Company`s products are manufactured by proprietary processes the Company has developed including the QuicksetTM Injection Molding Process (`Quickset Process`) and the QuickCastTM Pressure Infiltration Process (`QuickCast Process`).

(2)  Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarters and nine months ended September 24, 2005 and September 25, 2004 are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements of CPS reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods.

The Company`s consolidated balance sheet at December 25, 2004 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant`s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2004.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CPS and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CPS Superconductor Corporation.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.   The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(3)  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment", (SFAS No. 123(R)), which is an Amendment of FASB Statements Nos. 123 and 95. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) that provides interpretive guidance regarding the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staff`s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. The fair-value-based method of expense recognition in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the fair-value-based method described in SFAS No. 123 in most respects. Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC in April 2005, the effective date for SFAS No. 123(R) has been deferred to the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. If we had included the fair value of employee stock options in our financial statements, our net income for the quarters ended June 25, 2005 and June 26, 2004 would have been as disclosed in Note 4.

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47 ("FIN 47"), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, which is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 ("SFAS 143").  The interpretation  clarifies that the term conditional asset retirement obligation, as used in SFAS 143, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect adoption to have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position.

(4)  Net Income Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

Basic EPS excludes the effect of any dilutive options, warrants or convertible securities and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents computed using the average market price for the period under the treasury stock method requirements.

The following table presents the calculation of both basic and diluted EPS:

Options to purchase 1,252,363 shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $0.56 were outstanding at September 24, 2005.  Options to purchase 1,156,113 shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $0.57 were outstanding at September 25, 2004.

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees".  Accordingly, no stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income as all options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.  The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation for the fiscal quarter and nine-month periods ended September 24, 2005:

ITEM 2       MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in this report and the Company`s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2005.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. There are a number of factors that could cause the Company`s actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or projected in such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof.  The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or changed circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies

The critical accounting policies utilized by the Company in preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are set forth in Part I, Item 7 of the Company`s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2004, under the heading "Management`s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations".  There have been no changes to these policies since December 25, 2004.

Results of Operations for Third Fiscal Quarter of 2005 (Q3 2005) Compared to the Third Fiscal Quarter of 2004 (Q3 2004)

Total revenue was $1,789 thousand in Q3 2005, a 1% decrease from total revenue of $1,805 thousand in Q3 2004.  Lower product revenue resulting from reduced prices and changes in product mix was almost fully offset by license revenue of $134 thousand.  The $134 thousand of license revenue results from the recognition of revenue which was previously deferred.

Cost of product sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in Q3 2005 aggregated to $1,774 thousand, a 10% increase from expenses in Q3 2004 of $1,618 thousand.   Cost of product sales in Q4 2005 were $1,416 thousand, an increase of 7% from cost of product sales in Q3 2004 of $1,323 thousand.   All three components of cost of product sales, raw materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, increased in Q3 2005 compared to Q3 2004.   Labor and manufacturing overhead increased primarily as a result of hiring additional employees; raw materials expense increased primarily as a result of price increases by our raw material vendors.  In Q3 2005 the Company hired additional employees in anticipation of forecasted increases in demand from a major customer; these forecasted increases in demand did not occur in Q3 2005, but were delayed.  Management believes the forecasted increases in demand will occur in Q4 2005.   Gross profit on product sales in Q3 2005 was 14% compared to gross profit on product sales in Q3 2004 of 27%.   This decrease in gross profit is the result of increased cost of product sales,  reduced prices and changes in product mix.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $358 thousand in Q3 2005, a 22% increase from SG&A expenses of $295 thousand in Q3 2004.   The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily the result of higher commissions paid to sales representatives and higher sales promotion expenses resulting from greater participation in trade shows and conferences.

Results of Operations for First Nine Months of 2005 Compared to First Nine Months of 2004

Total revenue was $5,004 thousand in the first nine months of 2005,  a 2% increase from total revenue of $4,886 thousand in the first nine months of 2004.   Comparing the first nine months of 2005 with the first nine months of 2004, unit shipments increased by 22% while product revenues declined slightly, primarily due to price reductions that went into effect at the end of 2004 and secondarily due to changes in product mix.  The decline in product revenues was offset by license revenues of $137 thousand of which $134 thousand resulted from the recognition of revenue which was previously deferred revenue in prior financial statements. Unit growth was highest for lids and heat spreaders for application-specific integrated circuits, whereas unit shipments declined for heat spreaders for cellular basestations.

Cost of product sales and selling, general and administrative  expenses in the first nine months of 2005 aggregated $4,928 thousand, a 13% increase from expenses of $4,372 thousand in the first nine months of 2004.   Cost of product sales in the first nine months of 2005 were $3,877 thousand, a 10% increase from cost of product sales in the first nine months of 2004 of $3,527 thousand.   Cost of product sales increased primarily as a result of increased unit shipments.   Gross profit on product sales in the first nine months of 2005 was 20%  compared to gross profit on product sales in the first nine months of 2004 of 28%. This decline in gross profit is primarily the result of price reductions that went into effect at the end of 2004.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $1,051 thousand in the first nine months of 2005, a 24% increase from SG&A expenses of $845 thousand in the first nine months of 2004. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily the result of higher commissions paid to sales representatives and higher sales promotion expenses resulting from greater participation in trade shows and conferences.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company`s cash balance and cash equivalents at September 24, 2005 was $378 thousand compared to a cash balance and cash equivalents of $458 thousand at December 25, 2004, a decrease of $80 thousand or 18%.  This $80 thousand decline is the net result of operations generating cash of $182 thousand, additions to property and equipment consuming cash of $198 thousand, payment of capital lease obligations consuming cash of $86 thousand, and the issuance of common stock pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options generating cash of $22 thousand.

Accounts receivable were $1,048 thousand at September 24, 2005 compared to $1,312 thousand at December 25, 2004, a decline of 20%.  This change reflects lower revenues in Q3 2005 compared to Q4 2004.   The accounts receivable balance at September 24, 2005 and December 25, 2004 is net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $12 thousand.

Inventories increased very slightly to $639 thousand at September 24, 2005 from $623 thousand at December 25, 2004.  The increase of $16 thousand is typical month-to-month volatility associated with the consigned inventory programs the Company has entered into with several customers.

The Company financed its working capital during Q3 2005 with existing cash balances and funds generated by operations.   The Company expects it will continue to be able to fund its working capital requirements for the remainder of 2005 from these same sources.

Contractual Obligations

In April 2005, the Company entered line of credit and equipment lease agreements with Sovereign Bank.  The line of credit is a revolving credit facility allowing the Company to borrow up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable, up to a maximum of $1 million, subject to the Company complying with certain covenants.  The line of credit has a one-year term.   The equipment lease facility allows the Company to lease up to $600 thousand of eligible capital equipment.  As of September 24, 2005 there were no borrowings under the line of credit.  As of September 24, 2005 the Company has leased capital equipment amounting to $174 thousand under the Sovereign lease facility agreement.

As of September 24, 2005, the principal balance on all existing leases was $284 thousand.

As of September 24, 2005 production equipment included $358 thousand of construction in progress, and in addition, the Company had outstanding commitments to purchase $6 thousand of production equipment.  The Company intends to use the equipment lease agreement to finance $280 thousand of construction in progress.

|                                                          |           | Payments Due by Period
